Dev.......has become a ping pong ball now.......
before the leap-he used to do his own work, was friendly with Rohan but also maintained his distance, was wary of the others, did not like it when people snatch things that he thinks is his
after the leap-his reaction to Viraath is still the same but this time he hides it (this part has been explained and also ambas role in it)
-lives with the family but one does not get the feeling that he is part of the family
- as a child was wary of Mahshwari but now things that he is good (ammas role her has not been shown and without showing that Dev looks like a puppet to me.......someone like Abhay who does not use his brains, when the creatives have shown that he does use his brains.....he guessed Radhikas discomfort, he is responsible for all the work , he guessed that Chenu is fleecing him)
-he is friendly with Rohan whom he has told about this girl that h is searching for,when he meets the girl that he thinks is his dream he rushed home to tell Rohan this....... even tells Rohan that he has fallen in love but then does not tell him that the girl is coming........if you are rushing home to tell your friend that you have met your dream girl won't you also tell hom that she is coming...why this hesitation? is it because he really does not trust him or is it because Dev has again been changed to introduce the twist that will brng Radhika to the Purhit house. My hunch is that Dev has again been changed to suit another track.....so that is why he is now a ping pong ball to me........and incidently he is also the lead........so the lead does not have a definite character sketch but will be changed as per the tracks.
Maheshwari-
Before the leap-- aggresive, loud, greedy, quick to react, basically and open book whom everyone could read
after the leap- exactly the opposite.....manipulative,acts calm and wellspoken, looks and acts generous, but the change is so sudden and so opposite that it is extremely hard to accept for me.
Maheshwaris husband-
Before the leap- Not interested in responsibilities and in his own world, knows his limitations,listens to his wife to keep out of trouble but also knows when to shut his ears to his wifes nagging
after the leap- a zombie.........
Amba-
Before leap- shrewd, could easily read people
after the leap- stands quietly, nods her head and has not been shown as a person who knows something is wrong but is keeping quiet for a reason........a shrewd person is a shrewd person, that intelligence does not disappear, he or she usually will keep themselves in the background and keep their mouth shut for a reason but since ammas POV is still not shown she is at this point an irritating riddle for me which I have no patience to solve.
Padma
before the leap- intelligent, could read people, knows when to answer back and when to keep interested in who will be the next RP and also not to happy that the badi bahu is the chosen caretaker but accepts it as FILs wish
after the leap-smiling, nodding, making tea.......again like amma an irritating riddle for me
Viraath-
before the leap-Was hot headed, used to throw tantrums, hates Dev and full of air
after the leap-same but suddnenly he has been mellowed down.......maybe as a response to what the mother told him to keep his temper under control..but could not stand the sight of his wife and has been slightly changed to someone who likes his wife.......
Rohan-
before the leap- was friendly with Dev but could also switch sides and star being pally with Virath but did not like when Virat was taking his stuff
after the leap- friendly with Dev but by keeping quiet on friday to me he showed that he can side with Virath if it suits him.......now it remain to be seen whether he also does not like Virath taking his things.......on friday to me he did not like it when Virath questioned Dev about teaching Rohan responsibilities.
Mohini- Very artificial and a big question mark
So the Purohit house is a madhouse to me right now from which I am running away .
