You question if this were to happen in reality, what would be the repercussions on Yash. I feel in reality, if this were to happen then Yash would always second guess his actions and decisions regarding Ansh from now on. But also, in reality Aarti would have run away the second day after marriage. No woman in her right senses would want a family like the Scindias.
Now, coming to the reel life, again I agree with you. Yash did not deserve all this bashing from Aarti. But Aarti did not deserve to be faced with her son's death either. Like you mentioned Yash could never have foreseen something like this happening but the fact of the matter is that all the incidents that took place since the marriage proposal was considered, has indeed lead to this traumatic event:
- Yash and Aarti refusing to talk before marriage about what their expectations are from this marriage,
-Gayatri demanding Ansh not come with Aarti not once but twice,
-the Scidnia's snatching Aarti's identity,
-Gayatri demeaning Aarti at every turn,
-Gayatri's blatant dislike for Ansh,
-inability of rest of the Scindia household to openly challenge Gayatri's torture,
-Aarti's subsequent overprotectiveness of Ansh,
-Yash and Aarti's further refusal to talk about their kids with each other and overtly help the kids to adjust and accept each other,
-everyone including Yash, undermining Aarti's genuine concerns as just being over indulgent or overprotective.
So, in my opinion both Yash and Aarti did not deserve what is happening to them. Now coming back to reality, in such a scenario, blame game absolutely happens. What is important is how the individuals heal in the aftermath of such an event.
Wether Aarti yelled at Yash or not, Yash would have felt guilty. That is his nature. Aarti voiced out loud what Yash has been feeling since they came to know about the kidnapping. So I find it very difficult to say one's behavior was right and one 's behavior was wrong. It was unfortunate and should never have happened to either of them.
