Archana dearest,
Since I have tremendous affection for you, and am much older than you as well, I will take the liberty of offering you some advice. Whether it is good advice is for you to decide.
If you were really going to abandon PR, I would not bother, but I do not believe that, so here goes.
Please get off this Arjun-Purvi reunion bandwagon. It is not for the likes of you, not at this stage. You are very intelligent and logical in your thought processes, so surely you can see that it is no longer feasible within the bounds of decency. The problem is that you refuse to acknowledge it even to yourself.
Our Arjun, my dearest girl, no longer exists. This is a weak, selfish and extremely foolish young man, who loves his Pari so abundantly and extravagantly only after he learns that she is Purvi's child. Who melts in guilt and contrition when he thinks that he was the cause of Purvi losing her baby, but after learning the truth, has no similar feeling sof guilt vis a vis the dead baby that was Ovi's and his. Why, he does not even remember it or mourn it, except once in passing when he is soliloqusing next to a sleeping Ovi. When he is pleading with Ovi yesterday to come back to him, he does not find it in him to weep with her for their dead child. What kind of father is this? And what kind of man? He feels no anger against Onir and Purvi for having disposed of that poor dead baby like a piece of unwanted rubbish, while keeping its mother in the dark, because to him, once he has Purvi's Pari, the anointed baby, the other poor little mite means less than nothing.
I am told that an SBS segment about a future episode shows Arjun telling Ovi, when she is clearing her stuff out of the Kirloskar mansion, that she could leave him and go wherever she wanted once Pari was grown up, but she should stay on now, for Pari was so small and he could not manage her. So what he wants is not to turn over a new leaf with his wife, as he pretends, but to have her as a nanny to look after his illegitimate child as her own. How much lower can a man sink? Why does he not get a nanny, for he can surely afford it?
Or else, as I had suggested, tongue half in cheek, in a post to Janhvi, maybe he, Onir and Purvi can set up house together (oh, completely virtuously, of course, remembering Purvi's sanskaars, and NOT a menage a trois), so that Pari can have both her parents with her, to the delight of the bulk of this forum, who have made her being with her biological parents a sort of rallying cry. Onir would have to be there to lend them respectability, unless of course he is hauled off to chokey, and apni Purvi then starts (re)developing 'feelings;' for her ex. I can see a succession of charming scenes of them both and that baby, at the breakfast table, bathing, her dressing her, feeding her. Oh, it is beginning to give me goosepimples, so the bulk of the forum will faint clean away!
As for your outrage at Purvi refusing to get involved with Pari any more, that to my mind would be the only sensible thing she has done in a while.Kisi cheez ka daan karke, phir mudke use nahin dekhte. Then again, if she undertook to care for Pari, Arjun would be there all the time, with that hangdog expression on his face, pretending to want to see the baby but actually to make eyes at the baby's mother. Don't deny that, Archana, he does that all the time. If she is to look after Pari, it should be with Onir in Kolkata, but even then, one can be sure Arjun would be there half the time.
Do you want Purvi to be so lost to all sense of decency, not to speak of her famous sanskaars, as to romamce her old flame while her legally wedded husband., who has stood by her every time without counting the cost to himself, has ruined his professional reputation and his career because of her and ended up in jail? To be so bereft of both loyalty and gratitude?
If this is what you want, all I can say is that I am deeply disappointed. But I think I know you better than perhaps you know yourself, so I come back to what I said at the beginning.Bail out.
Besides, a contrived ArVi reunion, flouting both decency and simple morality, will do neither of these two young actors any good, for it is the Indian audience that counts, not the frantic forum segments who clamour for Arjun and Purvi to get together whatever the cost. The latter are very largely NRIs, whose support counts for zilch wrt the TRPs, which is all
Balaji would care about. If Purvi, a married woman with a paragon of a husband, did what you are apparently suggesting, the Indian viewers would spit in her face. And the TRPs would vanish.
Of course Onir could be killed off sooner or later, so that the lovebirds can coo openly at each other again. If that is what you want, I am sorry, but it makes me feel sick.So I had better stop this right here. But do think over what I have said, however little you relish it at first sight. As Purvi would say, it is for your bhalayi!!

Shyamala Didi,
To me this entire show is disgusting. But to be honest Purvi getting close to the baby an ARVI reuniting is some kind of redemption. But if Purvi turns her back on her own child...I will be the first to say she is far worse than Ovi and the CVs have well and truly wrecked her character and this show beyond repair. To me, better this accursed show ends.
I havent seen todays episode but am hearing that Purvi simply washes her hands of the baby, in her delusional way declaring that Ovi is her mother...even after being told Ovi is finished and does not want the child or Arjun anymore. To me this is so callous and ridiculous I cant stomach it. If there is no ARVI closeness track planned with Purvi coming to see and take care of the little one then I am done with this.
It is intolerable and disgusting beyond measure. Beyond unreal. I will not watch and wash my hands of this show for good.
