Adultery A Husband and Wife’s Playful Texts Turn Into a Complicated Affair

[RCF]

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.

Have you thought for a min that whatever you claim that Nikita is giving leeway to Tharun on various things why she was able to do that? Its because her relationship with Jay has taught her that lesson, that's why she was able to give that freedom to Tharun...understand him better which she failed to do in case of Jay. She knows she misunderstood Jay's love and that understanding she got after she moved on from Jay to Tharun in her mind. She regrets everything..we saw that already...

Its not double standard, its evolving and maturing over relationships, Nikita doesn't know what is going on with Mithra and Tharun...she asked him earlier if he truly loves her and not happy with Mithra, She expects him to handle that part like she is handling Jay, how is that her fault if he is not breaking up with her properly. 

Its not inconsistency, in fact in all the story only her arc was consistent. Jay, i still do not understand why he was possessive about Anjali when she was with Tharun, Tharun I do not know how can some one be so considerate in Nikita's case but so inconsiderate about his previous love, at least as a mark of respect for old times sake, he should have respected that love and end properly. Only Nikita is consistent and morally correct if you ask me.
