Well, issue of taking sides: if that is what cv's are intending it to be: my two cents on that goes here,
Inspite of show's clear intention to direct sympathies to Kumud's plight, there is a majority allegiance to Saras on the forum. I guess it is due to actor's superior ability to bring out complex layers of emotions, compared to Kumud's monotonous sobbing. TRP?
I would split the issue here as Pyaar and pyaar nibhana. It makes complete sense to me,
There is never any denial to the fact that love transcends their soul, they accept mutually on that.
"Rishtey nibhana" : the crux of the story from day1:
Saras writing to her, episodes week1, he can't.
VC:'s life motto,being the contrary.(episodes, where he lets Saras to stay with them, for that sake)
Guniyals's gentle cajoling to Saras on that.. Many more from Kumud as well.
He ultimately failed them, he chose telephone this time. Kumud tried all she could, until he hung up. She didn't dispute his love, only his commitment to "rishtey nibhana". Momentary lapse though it may seem to many: He faltered big time, would he gain that ability and commitment within a day? For life?
I take it second phase of the journey is about that, "pyaar nibhana"
Kumud took responsibility for her decision to marry Pramad, by sticking to him for right now.( decision to marry in a hurry, the motives behind it, anger/izzat/etc, being right or wrong: I'm not about to judge, bottom line is it seemed right to her).
Future, can only tell, how far she can stretch for him.
Pramad and Kumud, both of them started at same ground: complete disregard to find out who they are getting married to. Taking responsibility for their actions: poles apart.
Is she is using anger as her crutches,?so be it, her prudence.
Will Saras take responsibility for his action? His physical and mental "run" have not stopped.
His growth as a man, Looking forward to that journey.
What a fantastic team here to vividly explain that journey. Thank you..
