The story applies a clear double standard. Jay is condemned for taking Nikitha for granted, yet the reasons behind his behavior—the struggles and guilt he was carrying—were already established. Those reasons don't justify his actions, but they do provide context, and Nikitha was fully aware of them. Instead of acknowledging that complexity, she judges him without the same empathy she now extends to Tharun.
Ironically, Nikitha is doing to Tharun what she accused Jay of doing to her. The difference is that she chooses to overlook Tharun's actions. Tharun is cheating on his girlfriend by pursuing a relationship with a married woman, despite the fact that Mithra stood by him and fought against her own parents for him. Yet Nikitha shows little concern for Mithra or the betrayal involved. She gives Tharun understanding and leeway while refusing to extend the same grace to Jay.
That inconsistency makes Nikitha come across as hypocritical. If Jay's mistakes deserve judgment, then Tharun's actions deserve the same scrutiny. If Tharun is given empathy because of his circumstances, then Jay's struggles and guilt should be acknowledged as well. Ignoring one while excusing the other doesn't make the story emotionally layered—it makes it feel biased and inconsistent.
