I think they have taken that from the forums. Everyone kept asking why only Nandini is getting blamed, why no one is putting the blame on Kunal, why he is not being held responsible, just because he is a man no one is questioning him, Dida is not putting him at task just because he is a son. So now they made Kunal himself say all that so that his family knows he is the only one responsible for Mauli's pain. Well, I wanted to hear all this but those dialogues should have been to her mother, Dida and Sweety, not to Mauli.
there is no whitewashing going on, Nandini is a character who would always be hated by a certain a sect of people and DD as well as PH knew that when she took the role. But there is another sect of people who do see her beyond the EMA knowing her actions are wrong. The PH with this show wanted all of us to face this difficult question of relationship, marriage and love etc and I think they have been successful so far. I wish they would also give us answers but alas that's not happening.
If it wasn't a whitewashing process, pray tell, why Kunal used woman Card to defend Nandini? Nandini and Mauli's relationship is older than Maunal and KuNan relationship, so why he thinks Mauli taunted his girlfriend because she is a woman, do you see the point in this? Why would Mauli go to Nandini's place? Why would they show that Mauli is alive because of Nandini's dua or Mauli had a baby because of Nandini's dua?
EMA is wrong, Nandini can be a good human but they are belittling the wife, trying to show Mauli as a sexist, regressive woman to justify Nandini's action or to say that Nandini was not responsible for EMA, Kunal was responsible for it but the fact is Nandini is not any other woman, Nandini is Mauli's friend.
