n he himself says 'meh dekh kar athi hu' n goes for Gopi without giving any1even a moment to think..it was like that moment in the mandir when Gopi fell..it wasn't his mind doing it..it is instinctual the way he reacts when he sees that she was hurt..same was today..he just took control of the situation n took it upon himself to go after his wife..
today he seemed to assume Aham th HUSBAND role rather that Aham the passive watched/teacher as he had done before..
