No she does not need to seek permission from Bajaj. She’s not a slave to a family like the Basus anymore where she would be pleading and begging to be around Anurag. She’s done with that!
What Bajaj gives her is something called FREEDOM! Freedom to do what she wants (as it should be for any individual). She doesn’t feel any pressure because he doesn’t ever make her feel it.
She calls him at the auction, not to ask for permission but because there in an understanding between them. If Prerna is ever unsure, she can call him.
In the party, she asked him ‘Am I wrong?’ - again not asking Bajaj because he has any authority over her, but because she trusts his advice. If she feels lost or uncertain, Bajaj is Prerna’s go-to person.
Today, she called him because she didn’t know what to do with her family issue. What does this prove? She instinctively goes to Bajaj for any problems or dilemmas she has. Bajaj on the other hand, let’s her be but acts as her constant support. Romance or romance, the relationship comes out beautifully.
Does Prerna feel the need to hide anything from him? Nope! It’s because he’s her calm. He is never going to be the reason for her weakness. Till now, her family, Anurag and Basus have only made her weak. Here is a man who gives her strength and doesn’t even make a big deal about it.
