No consistency in Anshuman's character? - Page 2

Agree with you. Anshuman is the most consistent lead I have seen on TV. He is not the typical guy who abuses the girl and then sweet love changes him and he falls in love with her. He is an guy who stays very aloof. That is because he didn't have a family when he was growing up with mom dying and he studying in a boarding school. But now with Pakhi he is going to learn how family stays and he is going to learn the warmth of a family. A person who didn't have the warmth of a family when growing up is not going to be a warmth giving person and that is what Anshuman is right now. He is only concerned about his work and that explains why he is not close to Ayaan too. Now things will change and I so am loving this show right now. 

Finally when Pakhi moves out then he will realize that what she was to him. Really a different serial and different leads.

I didn't have any problem with Anshuman's characterization before yesterday's scene. As I also mentioned in my post I really like him for his wary and aloof personality. My only problem was that Anshuman wasn't angry at Ayaan for misbehaving with Paakhi. While watching the last few episodes (the car one and the Ayaan entry scene ) I had the impression that no matter how aloof or indifferent Anshuman might be to Paakhi and her feelings but he can't tolerate his son misbehaving with elders. I expected same kind of reaction from him in yesterday's scene and that was why I felt a bit disconnected.

But yes as some of you mentioned it might be coz of the fact that Anshuman is now seeing all this from his mission Paakhi bhagao perspective and not as a father 

@everyone: Btw thanks for the replies 😊

 

I agree on this, but Anshuman is also a very indifferent, or rather a very shallow father here. He is doing what his own father did, send him to boarding and the kind of self-obsessed person that he is, he thinks he has come out as a great person after all these years as a boarding school-kid.

He thinks sending off Ayaan as well would do him good.

 

Of course he was quite displeased with Ayaan's misbehavior and wanted to mend his ways (in his own way). But the turn of events and Paakhi's insistence to let him stay has made him think of this as a way to get rid of her and hence he is encouraging Ayaan.

 

He is still very consistent about his thought that Ayaan is a spoilt kid and only boarding school can do him good. I am sure he may have planned to send him off as soon as Paakhi loses and leaves but he is putting the plan on hold to kill 2 birds on one stone.
