As Jane Austen wrote in P&P ( my got-to book) , we're all fools in love. And Laila is in love with Rudra. He used her for comfort and she freely gave him her heart and her body. She knows he doesn't reciprocate her feelings, but till now she had believed she was the only woman in his life. She is more than justified for feeling hurt and jealous. Rudra can't stand on some moral high ground and judge her, he has been sleeping around with her for the last 8 years, that qualifies as a relationship. Even if it's strictly physical. And he does owe her courtesy and the truth, at the very least. As for her being someone you can't take home to your mother, Rudra himself isn't such a catch either. Besides, he doesn't believe in any social conventions, so why this?

I quite agree with ipkrr, how does anyone have a physical relationship for 8 years and not feel any emotional connect? Rudra in his own gruff way, is nice enough to her.
And he has made it abundantly clear, that it is not Laila whom he can't commit to-- he can't commit to anyone at all.
And Laila is okay with the no-strings attached relationship that he offers her, because she wants to be a part of his life in whatever capacity she can be.
And let's not forget that Rudra goes to her whenever he's troubled or needs solace.

Under the circumstances, I really fail to see how we can stand on some sort of moral high-ground and judge her for taking what she wanted. She has every right to feel pissed off, hurt and jealous. She sees Paro as a usurper who has come in and is taking her place in Rudra's life.


As for your label of 'kothewali', you make it seem as though a kothewali isn't allowed to fall in love, dream of marriage, entertain hopes of commitment, or feel rejected and heartbroken just by virtue of her profession.
Do elaborate upon the kind of girl Rudra should 'take home to his mother'.
And given that Rudra was equal participant in that relationship, is he the sort of boy you want to introduce to your father?

and to add to this , he did meet laila after this weddign stunt , but poor guy forgot to mention to the girl who has been waiting for him for 8yrs that he is getting married

Though laila is fool - but she is Justified in feeling jealous.. Probably never in her wildest dream did she imagine rudra falling in love (that is yet to be shown) and marrying a pretty girl.. Here its rudra's fault too, he went to her whenever he is pained- he also made her believe that he is a devil who will NEVER marry..

No point in mentioning again what many of you have already stated. Laila's feelings, as any other girl's are bound to get hurt no matter the length or limit of the relationship. Another fact remains is that Rudra is a grey character, no matter how much we wish he was pure white. And to some extent, we sympathize and even like him for being that way. Given all this, I am more curious as to how did this relationship start. For a man who generally despises (beautiful) women, its surprising to see him get so physically close to someone and stick with her for 8 long years?? If it was strictly physical, why aren't there any other women? And if it wasn't just physical, what is it that made him let down his "I hate all women" guard in the first place???

Rudra will have no trouble introducing Laila to his mom.
Mom, meet Laila professional escort
Laila, meet Mom, she eloped with her lover

dun!

jokes aside

Laila has feelings, like any other human being, and she can't control those feelings. she is a fool for waiting for rudra, but love is never logical. I think Rudra must come clean with Laila.

This woman Laila about whom all we know is that she is a khabri, is the biggest fool of all time. She has been letting Rudra use her body for EIGHT years. Doesnt she have any brains to figure out this relationship is only about sex ? She must know that on some level. No woman waits for this long for a man. So why will she now raise hell when Paro has vome into Rudra's life ?

To me Laila has seemed a kothewali from day 1 and definitely not a girl someone takes home to meet their mother.

Laila should not be entertaining any thoughts about marrying Rudra. She should know better. To me she comes across as an over made-up kothewali.

What do you all think ?


They have been "exclusive" for past eight years...atleast she has been...she has confessed as much...i have no hopes from Rudra banna sa but laila has been absolutely honest in this relationship...and for all his rage over commitment and "haq" and trying to keep it as clinical as possible dude still comes to her at the end of the day...either when he needs some comfort ( of whatever sort) or just some plain food he seeks her out... He may not have said it in words but he HAS made her feel somewhat special in whatever exclusive treatment he has given her. So even if it is ONLY about sex , as a decent human being he should have informed her of his imending nuptials...i guess he was too busy thinking about how to "masalofy" his bride-to-be to pay any attention to her...which doesn't say much about bannasa...i still might give him benefit of doubt thinking that his uniform his life is on stake and he doesn't have time to think about laila's heartbreak...he is too busy breaking paro's heart and strength ...but then too he has some major explaining to do. Laila has all the right to demand questions and to feel like a jilted lover...she has made her feelings very clear...she has always maintained that she wouldn't mind being more than whatever she currently is in his life...and if he wasn't so selfish he would have ended this one-sided relationship long time back...but rudra is weak...he let it go on and on and on for so long...HE made her wait...everytime he sought her he made it clear that he needed her and gave wings to laila's dreams...dreams which his cutting words could not break.
And about the whole "meeting with the mom" scenario...if laila is "not -suitable" than paro is definitely "not-suitable"...what with her being a widow and all...but then even rudra is not at all "decent" enough for "meet-the-parents" dinner that the whole eligibilty point is moot.

I guess i missed the episode where laila was mentioned as a khabri...or even as a "kothewali"...and here i thought i was watching it with full concentration 😲

Besides...WHAT is "an over made-up kothewali" ?

So long story short...as much as i want rudra and paro to be married in the end...this is just not the right time...Rudra is a fool to think that he can just decide to get married one day and not bear the consequences.
I hope laila gives him a hard time...make him see what a big mistake he has made.

Phew...too much writing...so this is what i think!!!

I think society has a bad habit of looking at a "khotey wali" and thinking they're just a body without emotions, feelings or spirit.

Just because PaRud are the end game doesn't necessarily mean that Laila, and individuals like here- don't deserve or have the right to dream or want something- want to love someone.

8 years of giving yourself to someone- even when they've told you that the relationship is simply physical is A LOT to give. And let's not just say it's simply "a transaction" because let's be honest, I don't think he has to pay for anything.

Call Laila a fool for thinking Rudra will love her one day, that's fine...but I don't see how her vocation has anything to do with it. She's human too.

I know rudra made no commitments but a 8-yr old relationship will have its repurcussions. Frankly speaking,I feel sorry for laila. She noticed how she's been the only woman in his life and must have thought that this bond will remain forever,even if there was no marriage in their destiny. And now suddenly she's being dumped...anyone in her place would have felt hurt. It doesn't help matters that she actually loves rudra and stopped mingling with anyone else ever since she met him. The problem is no one is at fault here,noone can be blamed for this situation


Yup. He did not promise her anything and she is not expecting also. Now the problem is not only Rudra is giving the other women whatever Laila wished to have which he was denying from 8 yrs, she is loosing whatever she has now. She spent 8yrs and she saisfied with whatever he offered even though she deserved more. Poor Liala I really sorry for her. But it was not Rudra's mistake also. Nothing is permanent except the change. She should not have thought that he would never change and fall in love.

In no episode was it depicted that Laila is a khabri (I do remember reading about it though - see for example @DiyaS reply here https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/rangrasiya/3920701/rudra-laila-relationship-will-it-continue ). I had thought that Laila's appearance at the Paro-Varun pre-wedding dance was one of her khabri tasks.
In the context of the show and its setting, with its traditional rural lifestyle, she comes across as a kothewali - else I dont have a problem with women going to men's digs for whatever. In those rural settings, kothewalis have no way out from their lifestyle. Fall in love they can, dream they can.

Laila is openly attached to Rudra, and I am sure at a hidden level Rudra is attached to her too - in his own gruff way. But I am not sure if she started spending time with another man, that would bother Rudra. When she told him she was exclusive, he didn't blink an eye.

Would I take Rudra home to meet my father ? I really don't know 😕 He is definitely a bad boy. 😛

Given the show's context, the girl to take home to introduce to your mother would be Maithli - traditional, meek, subservient. Paro ? Not sure if everyone will accept a girl brought up by relatives. I am being very traditional (purana zamaana) minded here.

Yes, I am also curious how Rudra and Laila got together 8 years ago, when they were both so young. Did Dilsher say - go there and get out your hawas ? Interesting angle.

Rudra has made Laila feel special ? What if she is the only kothewali in the area ? I guess in that case other kothewali's may have been setup, but then, maybe not !

what's an "over made-up kothewali" ? To me her face appears to have an extreme amount of makeup.

Rudra needs to come clean with Laila ? He doesn't believe he will get married. He is undergoing all these traditional rituals to break Paro, and he is 100% convinced the wedding won't take place. This is still a mission for him, and he has nothing to tell Laila - yet - until when he does start feeling something for Paro - (right now its only been 1 eye-contact, when he grabbed her at tea-time. The necklace-removing and bangle-wearing scenes were pure harassment - although we all ODed at the hotness of it - and resulted only in the guilt-trip for the bruising on her wrists)

@serialjunkie - I really like this 😛
Rudra will have no trouble introducing Laila to his mom.
Mom, meet Laila professional escort
Laila, meet Mom, she eloped with her lover



Just my two cents, guys 😛
