Yeah, I feel only Nikhil could make her go back, although I'd rather she kept Nikhil with her instead. 😉 I hope he returns to the show. Miss seeing him and his reactions to the whole situation but I've been wondering if he's the one who's actually behind the jewelry theft and is using BWA to take revenge on Raghav for what he did to Pallavi and him. That would be good motive.
My preference is that they don't officially get divorced, but Pallavi goes and lives separately without leaving the Raos on bad terms, builds her life from scratch and focuses on her career and passion. At the same time, being away from Raghav will help her think thorough what has happened to her and what she wants out of life, whether or not she wants the marriage, etc. Right now she's too caught up in the day to day at the Raos' to be able to think about her needs, though she clearly has a lot more me time than she did at the Ds.
Let's not forget that Pallavi herself never felt the need for a life partner, she's said a few times that she doesn't need a man in order to enjoy life to the fullest. So the question is, does she want a life partner for companionship? Does she feel that void and if so, does she see Raghav being her humsafar?
We're talking about Pallavi's readiness to have a life partner, so we might as well talk about Raghav. He doesn't want her to go but her presence is not the only thing that matters. What about the void in his heart? Is it something he wants to feel with a companion like Pallavi? He's being such a husband, as we've said so far, but he's still at the roles and responsibilities stage. What about the next stages? Proper friendship, falling in love, having that soul connection, sharing everything with her, etc. Is he ready for all that? Until recently he wanted to stay away from all this, he said as much to Farhad too. Just because Pallavi is now in his life, does it mean he will want to explore the relationship beyond what he has now? He needs to assess this. Raghav has usually been an all or nothing kind of guy so if he wants this marriage, he needs to be all in, emotionally, mentally, and even physically. He also needs to accept the fact that Pallavi may not want the marriage or him, or that she may not be ready and he'd have to wait for her to figure things out without social or family pressure.
Will be interesting to see. I, for one, do not want any confessions at this point. There are lots of other issues that need to be resolved first.
#WhereIsNikhil?
I'm telling you, there is a curse at play here- anyone who proves to be a good brother to Pallavi, vanishes from this show. Pehle Siddhesh gaayab, ab Nikhil... Warning for Farhad and Sunny, bhabhi bana kar hi rakhna. Behen bana liya toh gayab ho jaaoge.
Like Sharda, I do think Nikhil will also eventually see that this marriage is good for Pallavi. But he also has more of a reason to hate Raghav than any of the other Deshmukhs. While he tries to act in Pallavi's best interests, he's still immature and impulsive- he got into smuggling just to help Pallavi's financial burden, and look where that landed him. Also, to be used as leverage against someone you love so deeply has got to sting. I think I'd like to see Raghav and Nikhil acknowledge once what went down. Raghav has been shown to be quite protective of his men, and albeit indirectly, Nikhil was one of them. I'm sure with all the misunderstandings regarding that situation, he feels some guilt towards Nikhil as well. I'd like them to eventually move forward and have a good relationship.
I also want Nikhil out of that house and with Pallavi instead. He's too much of an accha baccha to be in that toxic environment. As you said, I would also love for Pallavi to move out on good terms with the Raos, and Nikhil can live with her instead. But as much as I would love to see it, I don't think we'll get an independently living Pallavi, for two reasons- one, sets are going to be restricted for the foreseeable future, be it this hotel, the Hyderabad set or the Kohlapur set. And two, how would she swing that, financially speaking? I don't think she currently has any money to her name, and would definitely need a bit of a nest egg to be able to move to an independent set up. I'd love to be proven wrong on this one though, because it'll be nice to see these two live separately and miss each other.
I wouldn't call it a separation track exactly, but Pallavi and Raghav do need some time apart to figure out what they want from each other. Even if they stay in the marriage, they can do it in two ways. Either they just go like, oh well, what's done is done, we got married under the worst circumstances, but let's make the best of a bad situation, or they realize that they actually want to be a part of each other's lives. I'd much rather the latter, but they'll have to miss each other to reach that realization. And of course, I agree, the physical aspect is super important in a marriage too- Raghav is simultaneously saying claiming it's all platonic, but expressing desire for the marriage to last forever. I doubt either of them want to sign up for a lifetime of celibacy. Neither seem like the kind to go for an open marriage (not that that's even a viable option in a TV show, but still 🤣). So they need to figure out what they feel and what they want, both emotionally and physically from the marriage.
Haha, I think most of us here don't want confessions right now. We're all on Team Slow Burn here
