HAI BHAGGU .. i asked u to be gentle ..😕Disclaimer .. my past discussions on this forum make me write this here ... this is discussion sake only & this is my POV .. it need not be anyone else pov on this forum 😛By chiding over his mother ... or by saying I "SPOKE" to my brother did he actually take ISHITA's side ... wasn't that the action of a person taking the route of AVOIDING AN ISSUE ..Where was the stance taken ..Now at the risk of being beaten black & blue on this forum .. lets look at what we know of the past .. Shagun fell in love with Ashok .. for whatever reasons material et all ... she left her husband legally & went to make a new life with another man .. she took a son & left a daughter behind .. ( if they had gone to the courts the courts would've also divided the issues between the 2 parents) ... Where is the CRIME in this .. Yes its MORALLY WRONG ...Subbu was in love with a woman for 12 years .. he promised her marriage & RENEGED on the promise ..( now he can be sued for breach of promise here ..while its not a criminal offence its a civil offence) for a reason which could be over come ... in todays time & science he could use his sperm hire a womb & eggs & have a baby of his own ... he chose to DITCH ... YES what he did was MORALLY WRONG ... He took the path of LEAST RESISTANCE ...But this post is not about whether Subbu is wrong or Shagun is wrong or criminal ...Its about 2 brothers .. Bala & Mihir .. one is the elder brother in a position of influence .. while one is a younger brother ..Whats a post which has no controversy .. so for the controversial bit .. here goes ...Mrs. Iyer .. chose Raman as her SON .. but Bala who has been with them for longer .. is still acknowledged as SON IN LAW ..But thats not the issue .. in discussion eitherMihir .. what he did was STAND WITH RIGHT ... he took the side of his BROTHER IN LAW .. ( in indian households .. bahu & damad are called the outsiders .. while blood relations are insiders hence i wrote that ) ... & since he KNEW HIS BIL is right .. HE GAVE UP TIES WITH HIS OWN FAMILY ..What makes Mihir;s case unique is that ... he was far younger when all this occurred .. he was immature ..but he still took the stance of RIGHT .. while BALA was a matured individual .. he was in a BIGGER & BETTER POSITION as the ELDER BROTHER TO INFLUENCE ... but he still chose to Sit by the side lines ... or rather he still DID NOT TAKE A STANCE ..Yes he has been shown as curt to his mother on occasions .. but has he CUT TIES with the woman who ruined Ishita's life ... NO ..hence my ques .. where are the PARALLELS ...Did u never wonder why bala's character was shown to be Insecure ??
