Posts gets locked in this forum all the time. Hahahaha.
I am used to a different forum where people with different POVs discussed in a healthy manner and nothing was reported at the drop of a hat and locked.
I am also just an occasional visitor to this forum and am shocked by the sheer number of vituperative posts and simplistic branding of characters as good or evil with any shades inbetween totally lacking.
This show is about EMA and EMA is what you are getting and whether you like it or not such things do happen, very nice people both and very much in love at one stage do either fall out of love or grow distant with time for no fault of either of the two partners, some compromise and live in a loveless relationship for the rest of their lives, others call it a day and either move on or fail to move on, some find love or attraction or lust outside of the marriage and so on. EMA is a very uncomfortable subject, and wreaks havoc all around but shit does happen in life don;t you all agree? Of course we would all love a good love story and a they lived happily ever after as the end but such is unfortunately not the case for several hundreds of thousands of people around the world.
Mauli is an awesome person. So is Kunal. They have a lovely family and everything was going hunky dory apparently but obviously there was a mismatch somewhere along the way and nandini in her sheer feminine avatar and in how soft she is, in fact she is the opposite of Mauli, she is demure, she seems like someone who really needs to be protected, she has gone through indescribable horrors at the hands of a brute, does correspond more to how Kunal has been depicted right from the beginning. And all this happens at a time when their marriage has already been on for a while and Mauli is extremely busy generally handling the various relations in her personal life and other pressing matters professionally including bringing Kunal's pet project to fruition.
Therefore yes it's extremely sad to see the bubble burst and all of us are and should feel extremely sad for mauli but also for kunal and nandini because they find themselves in a real mess and Mauli is indeed the hapless victim.
However it is so simplistic to paint Nandini as a lustful woman armed with the singular purpose of bedding her best friend's husband and betraying her trust. Kunal just happened to be around when she was at her most vulnerable and the mutual attraction they feel for each other is one of the inexplicable things that does happen even if unfortunately so.
I am sure they are both feeling shitty about it but they are also revelling in the sudden happiness they have found. Yes this is indeed possible. If you are dispassionate about it you will probably see that Kunal and Nandini do complete one another more than Mauli and Kunal.
Let me also admit that I have recently started watching this show and am expressing my opinion only based on the limited viewing and after visiting the forum and reading quite a few vituperative posts.
Another thing that bothers me is the take on this forum on what amounts to being unfaithful. I even read one post where the poster says that lying to one's partner is OK it's not a crime, but having sex with another woman is not OK and is a crime, but honestly is only consummation and just the physical act tantamount to cheating? What about mental, spiritual and psychological straying? Is it OK if your Boyfriend or Husband thinking of another woman constantly, is lying to you and is still sleeping with you while thinking of her? Isn't that cheating enough already? The physical act is just the culmination of all this isn't it and not as a big deal as you are all making it out to be as I see how much the consummation track has freaked everyone out here. Kunal has been cheating Mauli for quite a while already in his mind and nandini too.
I know how much EMA hurts, how uncomfortable the issue is but I really think it's too simplistic to brand someone a scheming evil homebreaker and all. Mauli's home is already broken from the time Kunal is no longer with her in heart.
Well I have rambled enough and will just shut up now.
The makers are trying to show us the journey of the characters over such a thorny issue in whichever way they think fit and in my opinion we should be dispassionate and see how things unravel and not fill the forum with so much negativity and say so many horrible things.
