Paro crying with realization and whispering "Major saab...what...how..." would have been more than enough. If she felt bold she could have hugged him to show that she felt his pain...here was Rudra saying that he wants to share his pain with her, and when he does instead of comforting him or even silently supporting him she goes off on how Mala is such a great woman and how she was like such a great mother to her blahblahblah.
One can be innocent and still be sensitive. Paro's reactions and even later her apology were really insensitive. I sincerely feel that she does not understand the depth of Rudra's pain - she is simplifying it so much. Does she really think her saying "Oh I think she wanted you so badly so her mamta transferred over to me instead of you" is going to make him feel better??? It's not about Mala!! It's about what Rudra went through when Mala left!! If only if were so simple...but Rudra went through hell as a child, and Paro knows this because she read Rudra's letters to his mother...she used to say, "what kind of a mother could leave her child?" And now when Rudra confides in her she starts daydreaming about what a great mother Mala was to her 🤢 This is not innocence, it is insensitivity.
And then the next morning all is well with Paro again, there is no internal conflict present in her, no processing that the woman she loves and sees as her mother is the same woman who hurt Rudra so much. She's back to shyly smiling and doing aarti and giving prasad (is that what it is?) to Major saab; and Major saab seems totally cool with the fact that his wife seems to be chill and happy with the fact that her foster mother is the mother he hates, the one he wants to kill. He seems ok that she doesn't feel his pain and instead looks for excuses for his mother. They're both in dream land, back to playing husband and wife. What nonsense. It was all so rushed and then on top of that I feel that RR is bad with continuity. They just give us scenes here and there but none of it flows as one big story because the characters and their emotions are extremely different in one scene in comparison to the next scene. That is where the disconnect comes in.
Yes you're right, Rudra will eventually come around because this is an Indian soap where everything has to end happily and family is always forgiven no matter what they do.
Sorry for going off in my response to you, I didn't want to talk about Paro but I guess it just needed to come out 😛
