Ok, ever since yesterday's episode was aired, people have been constantly cribbing about how it did not set well with the earlier track where Paro made a promise to God that she will leave Rudra once he gets well. Honestly when I watched yesterday's episode, I was a lil carried away and had all but forgotten about the vow. But as I thought about it, this is how I justified it.

I wanna start with a question.
Have you ever been in love with someone you can't be with, no matter what? Like someone from another religion, or caste or whatever? Atleast seen such a relationship, in real life, in a tv show, etc? The way they get attracted to each other, even though they know they have to get separated in the end? The irresistible attraction, the minding of each other's business even though u r not supposed to?
Or, this is the more common one, have you ever been part of a one sided love story? When you absolutely know the other person won't love you back yet you keep up hope after hopea and try knowing what the other person feels about u? In my view Paro's case is a mixture of these two, so if yes, then you wil understand my point better. If not, I can still try and lets see if I can prove my point.

Well what I want to ask is, in Paro's promise to God was somewhere a clause inserted that he will not fall In love with her till the day she leaves him? I certainly seem to have totally missed it. Because as I see it, it was a sacrifice on Paro's part, irrespective of Rudra's feelings for her.
If u have noticed, all this while, even after making that promise, she seemed to make no effort to distance herself from him. Infact she was happy when Rudra cared for her.

Her main objective was to nurse him and care for him, which she herself knew would be quite impossible without arousing in him some sort of feelings for her. She knew the love and care would touch his heart, she had herself vowed to change him with her love once before. She knew it, and she still made the promise.
I will put my case to rest by quoting two scenes in my support:
1. The scene after Rudra tells her thanks for the first tym and asks Dilsher if she reached home safe and sound. She was happy he was caring for her, and soon became sad on remembering her promise to God. But it was not coz Rudra was coming closer to her, it was coz she'd have to leave after feeling his 'love'.
2. The night Rudra breaks down in front of her. She wishes to herself that Rudra is able to open up before her before she leaves, which s only possible if he feels something for her.

My point is, as far as the vow is concerned, for Paro, the separation would have to be a sacrifice, in its truest form. But promise or not, as the one sided lover she always wanted Rudra to love her back. And till now, she thot he did. But now that his revelation has challenged all her life's ideals, she cannot not demand to know what Rudra's feelings about her are. For all it matters, she might not even be thinking about the promise ryt now, owing to the more recent storm in her life.

Note: This is just my view. U are only allowed to DECENTLY agree or disagree.

Very nice post .. Love the detailed way in which you have tried to give explanation for paro's actions 😊
All I can say those of us who connect with the love story and the two principal characters , donot need it 😊

I understand both rudra and paro's motives and their actions ... If I wish to find inconsistencies in their characters , I can ... But that's not how I watch the show ..

Wonderful post
I totally understand with u r trying to say and agree with u..

Few people think paro is doing wrong by getting close to Rudra when she knows she is going to leave him.. Well she never though in that way bcz never once did he told her what he feels nor made her feel that he cant leave without her... The day he confess his feelings & tells her he cant leave without her she might then think abt how abt his reaction after she leaves...

At the end i might give pages of explanation abt once behavior or action but the thing is no one is perfect just bcz someone is too good doesnt mean they r always right or always do the right thing & vice versa ..

Been there and experienced that...I agree with your take on Paro's question to Rudra as to what she means to him beyond the relationship that she shares with him in the form of the sacred thread - mangalasutra.

Great post. I've actually been wondering what direction the creatives are taking with this. The one thing that's for sure is that RR is truly different and the cv's haven't really ever let us down so I'm sure they have a reason for doing this too. I can totally understand Paro's state of mind because she needs to know for sure how Rudra feels about her. She thinks he cares but he blows hot and cold so often that even the most confident person would wonder about themselves. Remember that once she leaves ,these few days are all she's going to carry with her for the rest of her life. She's not going to be walking out of the haveli and straight into Birpur Matrimonials. She wants to know that he loves her and that will give her the will to live her life away from him. As for her coming closer - if Rudra is already in love with her then her leaving whether she's become closer to him or not is going to hurt him anyway. Once she goes he won't be able to deny what he feels. It's not like she's forcing him to love her he already does. The one thing I'm hoping for is that Paro will tell Rudra she's leaving and not just walk away in the middle of the night.
I've learnt my lesson from Fridays' precap - these creatives know what they're doing and it's really time to sit back and just enjoy the show without worrying too much about why someone is doing something - it'll all fall into place when it's meant to.

@bold- Very true! Paro deserves to know what's in Rudra's mind. So what if she has to leave? She has loved Rudra dearly all this time and for once if she wonders what his feelings about him are, I don't think there's anything wrong in that.

A very good thought about Paro, and i liked how you qouted those two scenes. So from your perspective, Paro is deliberately inducing his hidden feelings right ? And if that is the case, that means because she wants to prove him that he is capable to love someone and be happy .
Till this much it is very much fine, the problem again lies in the aftermath. She is yet to realise that the happiness she boasts about giving Rudra, is only temporarily. Isnt it, yes he is capable to love someone, but then that someone is leaving him, so why first of all nurture his wounds when you know that you will hurt him ?
Secondly, then if she leaves him after he confesses about his love, can we still call it as a sacrifice ? Can we blame Rudra if he feels betrayed ? Can we blame him if he takes this scenario as another abandonment ?

See when Paro made the vow, she was in a delusion that she knows Rudra in and out, she had the blind faith that this is actually not an one sided relationship. I think you are wrong here, Paro never took this marriage as one sided, she always took it as a mutual one and carried on with this notion, otherwise i do not see why would she compare and claim that her and Rudra's jodi is just like Lord shiv and godess parvati ? Why would she tell maithili that no matter how the wedding happened, the only thing that matters is how we carry on with the relationship.

The irony is that somehow her belief system is shaken with the Rudra-Laila truth out in open, and now she got a reality check, so the rights which she is asking from Rudra now, must have been asked on the day they got married, But no then she was all happy and taking oaths that she will fix everything in her own way and by worshipping bholenath, that time she had the complete belief that no matter how much hussle and fussle she created for him, destiny brought him to her, and she will not let the destiny lose. But now the picture is different, now suddenly she remebers those 8 vows and also that how she is not given the rights or should i say Rudra is not verbal about her place in his life.

problem is everytime anything happens, Paro shapes it up in her own convenient way and connects it with what she thinks is right without having a second thought about it or without considering anyone elses advice. and this time, maithili is constantly advicing her for her own good, and once again very conveniently she connected it with her rights and fate and forcing Rudra to take a decision eventhough that would only mean that he is paying the price of his own honesty

A very well written post! Just what I meant. I'm not saying Paro is right, I'm just trying to justify her actions, that they were neither meaningless nor illogical.
