Ah! See who's here. Hi! Shree,its me back with my appreciative mind and plenty of love for u. He he. I'm really sorry for being this late though.
First of all, kindly accept this from me.👏 This was for showing enough courage by selecting such a topic.
Now few words about this brain child of urs.
Substantial Topic.
Mellifluous writing skills.
Carefully picked words.
Bold, but at the same time so subtle.
Powerful delivery of dialogues.
Superb portrayal of emotions at large, be it pain, agony, innocence, everything.
Extremely precise execution of idea to stir up the reader's mind, rather to parayse the minds with anguish and shame of being a part of THIS society, which according to me should be ur utmost priority when u have chosen a topic of social criticism.
What more can I say??? Rather I would put it this way that is it justified if I say more???
U deserve all the eulogies for pulling this through so efficiently. U seemed to me more of a painter than a narrator or author. All together, the Shree, we knew, a writer with tremendous potential is reborn with Amour Fou. I won't go into analysing the details of the story coz I believe I've no right to be that audacious. It is a PERFECTLY DEPICTED STORY of the IMPERFECT, APPALLING MIND SET of the contemporary social structure in which we too dwell but still somehow manage to alienate ourselves from these abhorent things, less our existence is marred by these gruesome realities of the orthodox and debilitating segment of the society
The topics such as child marriage, honour killing, evokes a cascade of emotions in any human mind, from hate to helplessness to disgust to anger and many more but all the criticism that we engage ourselves to is a mere way of showing the world that we r so rational and evolved.
Its a way to shrug off some our guilt, lessen a part of our shame. But only a few of us think of contributing towards the reformation , towards changing these ideals and stop some heinous crimes. My sincere appreciation to u for doing ur part with ur inherent talent of skillful writing. Its a commendable work dear.
Ami jaani na, whether ur purpose of penning down such a story is only entertainment or conveying a message, so powerful and weighty, but this will surely educate the young, raw minds beyond comprehension.
The million dollar question now is that WHAT WILL BE SAKSHI'S REACTION?? But my question is that how will u steer her in the life track. The characters Arjun, Sakshi are tiny saplings that will definitely grow into plants but will they be cactus or white lotus, only u and time can tell.
Arjun, poor soul, not the bad guy but just oblivious to certain things.
Sakshi lost her innocence but will she gain anything by losing it??? Innocence is a facade, when one is afraid of knowing the powers that he or she possesses. It will be a wait worthwhile to see how u progress with the story or let the characters grow. Will u stereotype it by adding a romantic angle to it by Arjun's metamorphosis and sakshi's compromising self or give a new lease of life to her and enlighten her soul and set an example as how one shall deal with a similar situation.
Writers like u don't request but command the readers to stay rooted till they have internalized the theme presented to them. I do badly wanted to say a few more things but I'll rather stop here less that becomes irrelevant.
