Why does this have to be a competition between who's more right or wrong? Raghav was never a white, clean hero so I never expect him to know how to balance relationships perfectly or be a master problem solver, etc. He will screw up.
Also, people forget that Pallavi's only been in his life for a few months and while she's had a positive effect on him, the 10 years of misery aren't going to go away overnight, especially because of what happened during his formative years.
Also, people can't accept that he was in love with his ex just because he's meant to be in love with Pallavi now. I don't see what one has to do with the other. So they are taunting him left right and center and the latest buzz word is emotional cheating.
I give up.
I am with you dude. I can't take this toxicity any longer. I mean what is wrong with people? Its impossible to keep an open mind and have an unbiased judgment for the audience if this keeps on going.
I mean, Raghav is portrayed basically as an antihero... that was evident from the get go. He will be shown making mistakes and blunders often. His intentions are always at the right place but his methods mostly go wrong. You can't flip and change within a few months without any intensive care for a damage done so deep. I don't know how people suddenly expect him to be Purushuttam Maryada... and as you said, the trauma of a decade cannot get wiped out within ten months.
The worst part here is what I feel, is that people lable the partners cheaters instantly the moment they show any care or affection for anyone except each other. Arre, how do couples stay in a relationship within an isolated bubble?
And I can't believe that I came across people bashing Raghav because he wanted to make sure Esha didn't commit suicide after he kinda got a bad feeling when Keerti read a similar news. I mean I can't wrap this around my head.. what was the appropriate reaction one is supposed to feel here?
And I think people are disregarding how traumatic abandonment issues can be. Its called a psychological disease. Its not melodrama. For a person who had always been left by all the people he cared about for as many as ten years that also in painful circumstances, its a big deal. You cannot wish away a fear like that... that's a defect in him.
I am not justifying him lying. I am telling the forum to understand his reasons before outright bashing him or maligning his character.
And this Pallavi vs. Raghav is giving me a headache. Just because the bullet hit her and didn't blow his brains out doesn't mean he loves her any less. The intention to give away their lives for the other was in the same intensity for both. At this stage, I wish Raghav would have shot himself during that Mandaar track and the serial should have ended on that note... drama hi khatam ho jataa...
