At best she gives him silent treatment or a few mean words and the worst she did was prank him with laxative for something as serious as assuming he might be cheating with her sister (Cvs lost me here because how can someone think the guy is encouraging her sister willingly and prank him as revenge rather than ask for divorce?).
He breaks things, tries to rape her, does not let her eat, does not even care when she injures her hand and throws things at her. These are not normal things, these are how every abuser behaves , if he misunderstands and simply goes away angrily I would understand and even agree (which I think might happen this time, he won't lash out as harshly hopefully)
I don't understand why they show him extremely affectionate and revert to same old self due to misunderstanding and then again do a 180 after truth reveal. It is getting too repetitive. Last time he restored her shop and immediately went to torturing her due to the police incident, if Veer could trust then Angad should have, he only showed some trust after she bailed Daarji out.
This time too, idk what they will show but if he planned this birthday for her and distrusts her in a second, he should be diagnosed with some disorder.
That said it does not matter because she sticks by him inspite of it all like a true doormat from Ekta's two decade old shows.
@bold 1 - The prank wasn’t revenge against him for willingly encouraging Seerat. It was a practical joke and a mischievous act from Sahiba because she recalled her argument with Angad when she wanted him to go and talk to Seerat at a given moment and he didn’t. So Sahiba pranks him because now that he wants her to do something at a given moment she chooses to be stubborn, refuses to wear the dress, and pranks him. It wasn’t revenge because she thought he was willingly encouraging Seerat, if that were the case her flashback would have been the night with the candle light dinner.
Also, in marriage, divorce doesn’t solve every problem. Misunderstandings occur often between couples and sometimes a heartfelt discussion is required or marital counseling. Angad and Sahiba are having a misunderstanding about how to deal with Seerat but Sahiba is not accusing him of loving Seerat which is a totally different scenario. Sahiba wants Angad to clearly draw the line or create clear boundaries for Seerat. And Angad did so after the disgusting finger sucking scene when Sahiba walked away. Now did he handle it like Sahiba would? No, he’s a man. And men never handle situations like women would because we are two different genders that think totally different and react differently.
@bold 2- I will admit that there has been little progression with all characters in TMD. Yes, everything seems like repetitive tracks. And yes, some of Angad’s actions have been very distasteful. But the pivotal moment for Angad’s character was when he decided not to sign the divorce papers. That action sparked growth and change for Angad. So now we will have to see how the writers make him respond since his character growth. So Angad deserves grace until the MU.
Honestly, the pivotal moment that we should be looking for is from Sahiba’s character. If Sahiba does not share with Angad that Simran is his sister, then she is actually not progressing as a character or with her marriage. Sahiba will then be the one repeating her actions just like in the Kiara situation. It really is not fair for her to keep such a big secret from her husband.
@bold 3- Have not seen this show from decades ago but I strongly disagree that Sahiba is a doormat. A doormat is a submissive person who allows others to dominate them. If she was a doormat, she would not be getting her degree. If she were a doormat, she would be handing her husband over to Seerat and crying in the storeroom. If she were a doormat, she wouldn’t have proven her innocence several times. The woman literally has gotten hit several times and keeps getting back up. If she’s a doormat, then I’m one too. Because when life knocks me down, I get right back up and I keep fighting for what I believe in. Just because Sahiba’s willing to work through misunderstandings in her marriage does not make her a doormat.
Now does Angad have anger issues? Yes. But hopefully he’s changing. So I’m giving him grace. And as the story continue we see that he has experienced childhood trauma which probably contributed to his anger. Angad probably hasn’t seen real examples of love. Could he treat his wife better? Yes. Could she treat him better? Yes.
