Right, so yeah,

I have taken a break from typing up my whatever-the-word-count-on-this-essay-is to write this because I for one am extremely frustrated. Also the amount of times I've typed a post like this and chosen not to upload is ridiculous. BEFORE I begin, I just want to say I'm not character bashing guys. I love every character (esp Mohini) in this show.

Now *holds hand* please for the love of everything that is holy don't shut your senses off to what I'm about to say, it's really frustrating when people write something and the audience interprets it as something else. (It's one of the reasons why authors hate people over-analysing work because the analysis misses the vital point)

I don't know whether anyone has picked up on this, or maybe y'all are just as sympathetic with Mala as the next character is on the show but why has everyone (besides Mohini, Sumer and Rudra) happily accepted her into the family? I cannot get my head around this.

Yes she has tried to explain herself to Rudra, but please, why the hell is he going to listen? For her (thanks to Dilsher) she is the evil mother who ran away with her lover friend.

And secondly, why the didly-in-squatting-hell (because squats are exercises from hell) has Dilsher not explained himself to Rudra? Technically he is all to blame here whether he did atyachaar on Mala or not, he has created this poisonous being called Rudra, fed him every bloody trust issue under the sun and yaha Dilsher-Banna is too busy running after his ex-wife?

I cannot understand this need to pity Mala man, she's human, she left for a reason, she got married to another dude, she needs to explain (and then everyone needs to understand) that she wasn't chained to Dilsher she was entitled to leave if he was being horrid to her, and then she got married. And then somehow (life is a circle folks) she came back into the Ranawat haveli and life is all sugar and candy for her, but Rudra? If anything she and Dilsher need to explain herself to Rudra, need to try and make him listen and understand.

I'm all for trusting the CV's and what have you but nah mate, when Rudra got slapped my heart broke. His father is to some crazy extent a role model, he has supposedly (all in Rudra's world of course) battled the loss of a run-away-wife, worked his limping leg and managed to maintain his dignity and then for him to be slapped by someone he holds so highly in some part of his brain? Nuh-uh Gauti.

Okay- my rant didn't make sense but for the life of me I couldn't type another word of my essay without getting this out there.

P.S: am I over-sympathising with Rudra? Nope.

P.P.S: I am not character bashing

P.P.P.S: I've watched Friday's episode a million times, needless to say I love Rudra. (Never fan-gurled so much in my life.)

Also guys if you're going to be negative and call me a crazy woman please just allow it. I open the floor for some constructive dialogue between myself and you guys.

love--------Unresed for my love, curledup!

Here is the truth.Mala sucks as a mom. Dilsher sucks as a dad. And they both, right now, suck as parents. Abuse is NEVER a "pati patni ki mamla". That is such regressive, wrong thinking I am literally shuddering right now. That is the first defense abusive spouses, AND their battered spouses put up, to prevent their shame and their crime from coming to light. When they say--its a private matter, between husband and wife. It is not, it must not be.


And if there are children? Holy Hell, Mala should have taken Rudra out of there, to beg on the streets with her, if she had to. She should have forced Tejawat to look for her son as opposed to keeping him a secret and a picture tucked among her winter woollies for 15 years. She should have fought for her son like she ABSOLUTELY rightly fought for her freedom. A mangalsutra does not give you goddamn ownership over your wife and her thoughts, her body and her safety. Dilsher does not get to revert to abuse now, towards Rudra, to cover up his shame from 15 years ago.


And what Rudra said, given what he knows is 100% accurate. Mala does not get to say--I am not so bad--if Rudra never knew what was happening to her, as her adored son. For him, she walked out one night to go be with her terrorist lover. His viewpoint is that of anyone who has been truly betrayed. One morning he woke up, and his entire world had ended. Overnight. That is all he knows. For 15 years, that was what he saw--his father missing his mother. And as a child, Rudra did not understand his father's anger, his drunken rage and despair came from self-guilt, not from some desperate love for his runaway-wife. I am sure love is there--Dilsher's reaction shows he's never gotten over Mala. So? He abused her! He does not get to play Mala's defending angel now, against his son, who is literally trying to defend HIM from another such hurt!


What Paro needs to see, what we need to see--- Rudra has been betrayed, worse than he even knew--by Mala (for leaving him/not telling him about her situation then AND now) and by Dilsher. He deprived Rudra of his mother, filling him with poison and hate for 15 years AND he just abused his son right now. Lets not pretend otherwise--parents can hit us, it was the heat of the moment, Rudra was saying horrible crap about his mom, etc etc---A slap is abuse, people--imagine if Rudra had slapped Paro--for whatever reason, even back when he hated her---would you be all tender towards him, ever again? No one gets to hit anyone.


I hope the CVs focus on this truth. NO ONE gets to abuse anyone. I dont give a damn about Mala and Dilsher's old age prem. I give a damn about Dilsher admitting his sins, and Mala either never forgiving him, or forgiving him, her choice ... but BOTH begging Rudra's pardon. Because the first rule of abusive households--the CHILDREN suffer. And Dilsher did not just abuse Mala. He had 15 years to abuse Rudra. And now we know Mala's abuse was physical, too. That is not something you can shut your eyes to.That ties into the fact that Rudra's abuse was, also, ABUSE---emotional and psychological. You do not leave your child with a man who you know (better than anyone) is unstable, cruel and abusive. You JUST DONT. You get the hell away.


Good for Mala, for getting away--and good for Tejawat, for taking her in, loving her and keeping her stupid and happy like only a true psychopath with a god-complex could. But you TAKE YOUR KID. She did not. So... Mala? No, I am sorry. You just lost me, today, because you lost Rudra, 15 years ago. You should have kidnapped him, bound and gagged him, sent Tejawat's many minions in to get him. You played happy-families as the Thakurain, and tucked your son away like a faded memory. You left him there, unknowing of the truth, afraid, missing you--back in the hell you escaped. No, Mala. You don't get to cry. Rudra does.

I have no idea whether this is a 'I love you' or a 'love, hang on a second you've got the wrong idea here', I'm going with the first one because I love you too. 😃😆

Actually today and in the precape they showed/gave us hints that mala was in a abusive marrriage and thatz why she left.
I think this pus an end to all the things we have against mala.
Becouse who will except a women to stay in a abusive marriage.
And if u peeps thinks its to go qitha abusive marriages then Raam hi rakhe.

Afterall its an male dominated society.
Only females are blamed.

I totally agree with u.. what I feel is that both Mala & Dilsher r responsible 4 Rudra's poor state and they both should apologize and explain the real situation to him. what Dilsher did today was unacceptable. now I see why Rudra didn't like his father b4.. he may love rudra but he is not good father.. feeling really sad 4 Rudra..
P.S. If Dilsher was so abusive to mala, she did the right thing by leaving him.. I personally don't blame her 4 that (I shouldn't blame her). I'm just feeling sad coz after anything happens, Rudra is the one who suffers the most without him being wrong..

Yes I understand that I just don't understand what Dilsher is doing? He wants Rudra to live under the pretense that everything was all rainbows and unicorns and he isn't to blame but he wants Rudra to accept her? You get me right? I have nothing against Mala, and she had every right to leave

I feel sad for him too, trust me (this has never happened to any other male character EVER!) but the sense of maturity and ownership to ones faults seems lost in the show right now?

See I think rudra will know thebtruth soon.

And moreover wat dilsher did today was not totally wrong.
Coz he knows that mala wasnt wrong and he was unable to listen what rudra said.
Becouse no matter what rudra dont have a right to point on any women's character before knowing her story.

I know the slap was not also right but it also wasnt too wrong.

Mala's reason for leaving is just the tip of the ice berg. Dilsher may not have been the nicest of husband and maybe she couldn't handle it anymore as per the precap. But why leave her son behind. How could it be enough that she came back for him a month later. Why is it ok simply because she missed him while being married to Tejawat. No, she has no sympathy from me.
And you are right about the fact that nobody in the family cares about her current marital status. Only Rudra has brought it up today and earned a slap for his effort.
Since Dilsher has brought Mala in with the excuse of pati patni ka mamla, shouldn't he sort it out himself and soon. Why is he expecting his son to respect his ex wife after all the bitterness he has fed him.
