Thank you Megha for always replying to my topics, it makes for a fun discussion! This is just strictly my opinion but Ishita works equally hard at this marriage as Raman. Forget the past, today itself she said, 'I know our relationship is way above and beyond Ruhi and I won't let anything hurt you'. She said it out loud to her friend, 'Raman has done so much for me that I won't let anyone harm him.'
She fought with Shagun when she falsely printed the medical papers signed by Raman to save Shagun. She told Mrs. Kaur in the courthouse, don't question Raman about Shagun in court, he loves his family do don't tarnish his name and reputation. She told the police officer, you cannot arrest my husband when they found sim card belonging to Raman. She had ruhi and Adi participate in Rakhi knowing how much they mean to Raman. She willingly bought Param back to their house so his sister can stay under his watchful eyes.
There are multiple other small gestures, learning how to cook for him, taking care of his family etc.
Here is the question I have though if Mani was a girl would we still be pissed at the supposed closeness of Ishita and Mani?
Granted a lot is shown and done to garner TRPs and create some drama but I do not think that Ishita is a bad person who isn't working on her marriage. Raman and Ishita are equally at fault and both need to work at it.
I am not saying she is a bad person nor that she has never worked in this marriage 😆
Hell ya she has sacrificed more in this marriage coz she married a person who hated her just for a child (what if Raman was a physical abuser n raped her) n yet she took this chance.
What m saying is - Both r equally responsible for lack of understanding, communication n trust issues in this marriage but the current track looks like only Raman is responsible.
Rarely we have seen Ishita showing her rights on Raman as her Man, i.e. like trying to woo him or complimenting him or even understanding him from a wife's POV (I am using Rarely n not Never)
We have seen Raman complimenting her whenever she has dressed up even he tried to get close to her when she was sleeping on the bed while he couldn't sleep on the couch.
Only time I saw her marking her territory on Raman was when she told SHagun - i will never leave Raman n also when she didn't let Raman go when they had a trip fall catch scene.
She says she understands her husband but she really does? Raman says that Love makes u weak no where he says I love SHagun but she assumes he only loved Shagun always. What about the fact that he has said I don't want Ruhi to grow up like SHagun but I want her to grow up like u to Ishita or what about lets make new memories just ours? Or what about don't share this with anyone there r something things which should be between us only (After the rain dance when she got her Kuch kUCH HOTA HAI moment)? 😕
She first accused him of talking about the physical equation in their marriage to his family members n now she herself goes n talks to Mani that we don't share a normal husband wife relationship our relationship is all platonic? SO y blame Raman only?
Making him jealous so that he blurts out truth about him loving her won't it open up his past wounds? Will he not doubt her character, is she willing to risk this chance?
Look nowhere m discrediting Ishita that she has not done enough, she has but this Mani track is really making her look insensitive not only towards Raman but even towards Ruhi - she was busy talking with her Best friend over giving her child food. 😕 For once can't she hang up the phone n call him later when she has free time? We all have seen platonic relationships between guys n girls but this Mani obsession n talking to him 24 hrs a day is beyond anything. This is something that teenagers usually do with their first crush or something n here we r talking about a woman in her late twenties or 30.
i am myself a woman n have lots of guy friends but I don't go about talking to them 24 hours a day ignoring my other responsibilities.
Sorry to say but really CV's have messed up with her character.
