What should Rudra have done to gain Paros trust? keeping aside the court martial and all..what could he do that would be considered gentlemanly and still solve his issue?

Should he have let her go because she appears innocent?

Good post.

I am done hating male leads.

I used to hate ASR in IPK when he was mean and nasty to Khushi. Now that I have watched the re-runs, I see his insecurities in every mean-ness of his.

I dont think I will be hating Rudra. I will feel pain for Paro.

Lets see how it goes 😛

Yes, hoping Paro gives Rudra a good fight even if she is left with no option in the end. Just a day before Rudra held her hand and told her gently that she can turn to him for anything and next day he gave her an ultimatum. Yes, he is also desperate to clear his name but what a shock to Paro who knows nothing.

The CO was right about Rudra, he is brave but when provoked he loses his head and acts rashly. If only he had not killed Varun's unarmed kaka when the old man was begging for his life, today he would have a credible witness. He is paying for his hot head and Paro too will suffer with him.

Waiting to see where the creatives take the story from here.

Lovely take as always.
I guess the marriage will not happen as that will be suicidal to the show. As you said Ashish is doing his job well, i hated Rudra yesterday, am waiting to watch how Paro fights back..

Hi Diya,

I see a lot of discussion about Rudra's behavior on the forum, and rightly so, you know where I feel the disconnect starts is you have this Rudra who is hell bent on scaring the living day lights out of Paro and intent on making her submit to his demand by sheer intimidation and appropriate blackmail thereby saving his own ass even while he has admitted to himself that she is innocent then you hv that Rudra who showed glimpses of compassion and tenderness in the recent episodes gone by. Something does not quite match up. I might be the only one but they should hv kept to the ruthless Rudra because that would hv established his character as that... Now It's almost like he can switch back and forth between this normal as he can be given his own situation and this monster he can flip a switch and morph into. Let's face it, he is a troubled, flawed and emotionally damaged individual who like his senior officer said is rash. And now that his only real identity is under threat, his worst is coming out. You can judge a person by how they handle adversity. Paro is holding up admirably the same cannot be said about Rudra, even though he is supposed to be an officer oft he law and by definition an honorable man. May be that is how they intend to establish his character and show his flaws.

Sure he saved her honor numerous times and has even saved her life by keeping her in his haveli. But does that justify this blackmail? No way. So the best thing is to accept that he is flawed, and Paro is caught in this unfortunate whirlpool and has been reduced to a mere pawn between more powerful people. Could he have saved her by other means? Possibly. But widow or not, criminal or not, Paro is first a human being and deserves to be treated as one. One right does not justify ten other wrongs.

This goes to show, that more often than not those that need protection and a voice are the ones who rarely get it.

Pri, if Rudra is talking about the brides being sold into prostitution, should that not ring a bell with him that the girls are innocent? Or has he not stopped to wonder if the girls would knowingly submit themselves to such a fate if they did know about the arms racket ... them and their parents too?

He doesn't have to be gentlemanly ... he needs proof to solve his issue. He needs to get out of his mindset that Paro is his only proof ... if the BSD has news that the girls wind up as prostitutes, they need to trace them if they can.
