I think it is very convenient for men to shrug off any form of commitment by professing to be honest and upright about the relationship. I am glad you brought that point up. There re indeed many ways of commiting oneself to another, and it doesn't always need a verbal declaration.

Why do men believe that it absolves them of all sins just because he had never promised her a happily ever after? You are in a relationship with someone for a decade yet you say you are not into commitments.

Men are hypocrites. And we women are utter fools for letting them play with our emotions. I really don't buy the bs propagated by some people who believe that the man is " damaged" and how it is the touch of the right woman , her chaste , pure love that can heal the man. Utter BS, I tell you. Just a convenient way out, an easy excuse.

Onu Hi babe

Hypocracy does not have a gender ownership...there are many who use verbal declarations to suit themselves...

lol often if you have shopped at the same vendor for over 3 yrs even and then go to the next store within eye shot ...the vendor does get angry and depending on the area might start a verbal battle that gets nasty with you or the other vendor...

so when it comes to things like your person then ...i dont get what the need for even a debate...

A misogynist, and does not mind a sexual relationship with a woman. 8 years in a relationship? What age did he start, 20? All is forgiven when he sets eyes on the fair maiden.. for she is going to reform him. 😡 This is indeed a Paro-Rudra story, but they should stop painting the 'other woman' black.

short and sweet !
but television is the 1st democracy , it goes by exactly what people want the scary thing is what people want

This whole debate reminds me of the famous saying "why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free". Romance novels and movies show that once you give yourself to a man, he falls hopelessly In love with you, and stays with you forever. But this show is showing the reality. Many times men will continue to have sex with a woman and end up marrying another. As hypocritical as it is, they want a "good" girl to marry, to protect. Laila is NOT a good girl. No one cares who is responsible for that. Yes her anger is justified, but it's insignificant at the end of the day. Does that sound cruel? Maybe. But we're forgetting one crucial point here. At the end of the day, this is Paro &'Rudra's story and that is why we watch. Sorry for Laila, but this was never her story.


WOW true that it was never her story...
but i thought we were moving away from that "good" girl realm in both reality and fiction...

the debate is whether her ire is justified ...many say nay because she was not in a relationship to start off with...

cos as far as I know no one gives the milk for free...

If the story was just Paro and Rudra without all the side stories then we would be done in a month ...

I have no qualms about the eventual Paro Rudra falling in love ...its the journey and all those who took part in it ...give them a story line that is not stale ...



Ire is justified. My point was that this is what I call an accurate depiction. He is off Scott free under the guise of protecting the girl. How can he not fall in love? And it isn't his fault after all. She just landed in his life, right? He never promised Laila happily ever after did he? So how is Rudra wrong? How is Laila upset? That is my point. THIS is how it goes in real life. The poor girl who hung in waiting for 8 years with no promises gets the shaft for the innocent with the hazel eyes. Not saying it is right, it just is! Whatever the case, I began watching this show for Sanaya, not the other actress. As,I said above, she can get angry, even get revenge, but it's not her story and it's not her show. She will come and go, but ultimately fans glue in to watch Sanaya and Ashish, and of course Thakur!

Oh I have to say this - I know enough women - real breathing ones who decided to let their partners of years go because they happened to fall in love with someone else / needed to marry someone else for whatever reason.

All I am saying is - this is not a gender thing. Whether a man does it or a woman is immaterial.

I am not judging, merely quoting the fact that it happens - right or wrong. And the person who is left in the lurch, may decide to pursue a variety of options - how a hurt soul reacts is what makes human behavior interesting.

So even if we were to forget the morality, without reactions from Laila or Lavanya, what fun would there be at all? And just for that they deserve every color in the palette - not just the tainted black or the dull grey!

I neither understand the need to demonise Laila nor do I see the need to justify her. I'm somewhere in between. She knew what she was getting into, but like many other women she lived in the hope that the man would change one day for her. But he didn't. So I do understand her hurt and sense of betrayal. But on the other hand I don't think she is justified to react the way she is- manipulating to hurt the other person in the equation instead if hurting Rudra.

And that my opinion, I don't feel either of those emotions towards her. And I still believe that her character is badly written and uni dimensional for me.

The thing is the respect with which one is treated ...considering one not fit and qualified enough to deserve an explanation...

I dont mind the mad Laila, the unreasonable Laila ...the Lorena Bobbit Laila...

or the Lavanya that saw a better friend ...

its as you say story telling needs to have more color than the back white and grey they paint with


BTW
does this mean you are watching ?🤗 Good to see you

More than men its women who are hypocrites

Women in 8 years relationship deserves an answer from the said man
Just because woman having sex before marriage makes her a pros and she is getting name called and she is a women with emotions and she deserves love and family
If laila is pros then rudra is also pros why gender bias

People calling her whatever by name are no trp audience but progressive women.I was really routing for laila today rudra deserves it.

For once can we have a bold female lead who is ready to jump on to bed with ML and not silent innocent FL

NB: I can empathize with her. Yes, it seems illogical an rather unfair on her part to hurt someone she never had any business with, namely Paro. But all I can say in her defence is that "Zhakm abhi taaaza hai". She's bleeding. And her wounds are still fresh. You can't expect her to act rationally. I am sure time would mellow her and would give her the maturity to move on. She might not stop loving him but she would certainly accept his relationship with the "other" woman.
