When Ak met Nav, she was emotionally a mess, grieving and pregnant. Nav helped her during her most difficult time, which was a selfless act.
However when Ak asked him to be “father ji” and he agreed, wasn’t he exploiting an emotional vulnerable woman for his own selfish need of having a child?
He has been a good father to Abhir, but has he been a good friend to Ak for last 6 years - I say friend because they have been in friend zone in spite of being married. He didn’t even know anything about her until Abhi came along. I agree he kept his side of the deal and maintained distance (even emotionally and didn’t pry in her life) - but is that being a good friend - let alone good husband?
In the hospital, right after child birth when Ak asked him to be “father ji”, a decent person should have realised that Ak has had a traumatic experience (even though he didn’t know what but here is a lady with complicated pregnancy who isn’t ready to go back to her family), gone through a difficult pregnancy/delivery and possibly isn’t thinking clearly enough. He could have continued to support her as a friend but by saying yes he trapped her in a decision she made at her most vulnerable time.
Ak was under trauma, but wasn’t Nav’s decision of agreeing to the alliance selfish? So is he really Acha Aadmi?
