Actually in my opinion if they had given monologues to pallavi then it would have been easy for us to understand her actions. Specially when she had started developing feelings towards raghav. During 30 days jab uska raghav ko lekar perspective change hua at that time pallavi kya feel kar rahi thi or when she wanted to get physically close to him then what was she thinking ye sab monologues se dikhaya ja sakta tha.

If I say about that nail incident or kiss then everyone in the forum has different opinion about it. Kuch ko lagta hai wo consummation ke liye ready the, kisi ko laga that it was heat of that moment, kisi ko laga raghav wanted to confess his love so i was lil confused.

Yes, I agree, giving her monologues would have helped the audience connect with her better & understand what she feels & thinks.

An alternative to monologues would have been for Pallavi to confide in Krishna and Manasi as she went through stages of growing closer to Raghav:

1. Pallavi appreciates Raghav's efforts to reconcile with her family, but she's still terrified of how he can behave when he's hurt or angry.
   
2. Pallavi wants to be Raghav's friend and comfort him, but she has difficulty trusting him after all the times he mistreated and misunderstood her.
3. Pallavi accepts that Vijay won't forgive her, and she would rather live with Raghav, Jaya, and Kirti than with Sulochana, but she's not sure that she and Raghav can build a life together.
4. Pallavi is aware that Raghav's attraction to her is stronger than the guilt holding him back, but she's not comfortable getting closer to him physically or emotionally.
5. Pallavi wants to talk with Raghav about their future, but his reckless behaviour and drinking make her feel lonely.
6. Pallavi loves Raghav and accepts him as her husband, but she is diffident about intimacy with a man who brags about his experience.
   

I miss Krishna as Pallavi's loyal friend, and the writers haven't given Manasi anything to do as a negative character, so I think a series of scenes like this would have been entertaining, with Krishna understanding Pallavi's painful history with Raghav and Manasi encouraging Pallavi to give Raghav a chance.
