Why shd he praise his wife for name sake before his frnd...its actually an indirect insult he did to her...
wont his frnd think why he s praising when its not good, he even asked why he s lying about money...fine he reasoned out she wd feel bad abt money...
But this stupid complement for kesari and then making faces and not wanting more like (its enough) was too bad from TA's part...like u said...he shd have said how it was really...atleast he shd have told it was ok and she has improved...
Just to praise her for nothing is really bad...is he thinking praising for these things s good...but what if she hears joseph telling someone about her cooking later...wont she think TA s so mean to her...
And hiding truth again, its like he messes up things and hides from her and all rubbish talks ends up with her bcos of his silly behaviour...if he cant take padma's words how will she from a unknown person for things she was not responsible at all...totally TA's character is messed up...
Atleast they shd have not shown the third part yday...the continuity was so bad and spoiled his characterisation...if it was on diff episode it wd not have been so may be...and thats why i said it was only for dialogues stress was laid on the episode and the lead ones acting...otherwise third part spoiled the show totally...
