Sakshi joining Simran, Is this justified or not?
We saw a new character Dr. Sakshi Joshi, entering Astitva this week. We saw that Sakshi had always been a great fan of Simran, infact, possible that Sakshi decided to become a doctor seeing Simran. She also told that Dr. Simran was her idol. She was so thrilled and excited to hear to a lecture of Simran in her college, when she was a student. Sakshi, even went to the Prinicpal's room to get an autograph from Simran.
Sakshi, when she met Simran again, told her, that she wanted to help people around her, wanted to practice in her home town, which did not have much facilities. Simran was so impressed with Sakshi's thoughts, that she told Sakshi, that she will be fulfilling her incomplete dream of working in a small set-up.
Now, after so many years, we see Sakshi again, who is now married to a very nagging and irritating person Nakul. I really feel there is something unsaid, why and how Nakul and Sakshi got married. I say this because, in one scene, Nakul was screaming at Sakshi, asking her why did she marry him at all? Hearing this, there was a sudden change in Sakshi's face, Nakul too mellowed down, tried to talk softly to her.
But whatever the reasons maybe for their marriage, the fact is that they have lots of differences of opinions. It is very obvious that after marriage, Sakshi went to USA with Nakul, as he could not live in India. He hated India from his bottom of his heart, a complete extreme to Sakshi, who loved her people a lot. It looks as though Sakshi stayed in husband for the past 6 years, worked in a hospital there. But, as she mentioned, her heart always wanted to work in India, wanted to do something for her own people. She was not happy with the work and the working atmosphere there.
Now, we can say that Destiny made her to make a small 2-3 day trip to India. She also planned to meet her role model Dr. Simran. She then went to her house, to meet her. She got to know about Simran's condition. Simran later offered her a job. Now, remember that Simran has always been Sakshi's mentor, role model , idol and what not. The very thought that her idol needs her now, as she is helpless, made Sakshi think a lot.
But, when she told about her plan of accepting this offer to her husband, they both had an argument where Nakul asked Sakshi to choose between him and work. Sakshi tried to reason out that this was just a temporary phase in their life, she always dreamt of working like this. So she needs to accept this for Dr. Simran. She told him that though she earns in dollars in USA, her heart craves to do something worthwhile to her people. But Nakul was adamant. He wanted Sakshi to think about his own career, which was in USA. He did not understand the feelings of his wife, when she openly said that she was not happy and satisfied with the job she was doing in US, so would accept this offer, work for few months and come back. But Nakul called her Selfish, a woman who gave more priority for her work and mentor than her own husband.
So friends, the topic of discussion now, is that, seeing Sakshi's ambition in life, seeing her aspirations, her present situation, her love for her work, love to do something for her own people, the respect she has for Dr. Simran, her nagging husband, his selfishness, his care-no-damn attitude to her work and her thoughts, do you all think Dr. Sakshi Joshi's decision in joining Simran was justified or not???
Please do pen down your thoughts, rather type it up....Please do put forth your arguments with valid points, which will support your argument..
Also, please do try to put yourself in Sakshi's shoes, try to analyse what you would have done , in this situation?
