Bepannah ~My thoughts ~ep 73 27.6.18. Dear diary...
The day to day recordings of the writer Pooja Hooda's life were without a doubt an activity she pursued daily, and I daresay she enjoyed as well. She was no ordinary lady. She was the pilot Aditya Hooda's childhood love turned wife and the daughter in law of the prestigious Hooda family. Her husband Adi I would say was fairly liberal, who allowed his wife to explore and engage herself in the fine arts. We know Pooja avidly painted and held art exhibtions of her creations. I would imagine keeping a diary for Pooja was not just a record of how she spent her days. But that her diary was also a log book of appointments she was likely to be involved in. We know her attendance at poetry clubs was active, and she even had a flair for writing, reciting and appreciating works of fellow poets. Hence Pooja's diary , was quite dear and essential to her in running her life.. but for Zoya too this happens to be a godsent! Indeed a diary very dear to her in present circumstances.
But for us it's the intimate contents of her life , honest heartfelt confessions , unknown to her husband Aditya that holds much significance. Her diary I imagine would be private. Classified information ,only limited to her. Fair enough. However it does cross my mind that Pooja was fearless in penning down fairly openly about how a total stranger Yash seemed to know her more in brief , harmless meetings at the poetry club ,more than her friend cum husband Adi ever did! Did it never cross her mind , what if Adi stumbled across her diary would happen? Did she have no concerns, because Adi although involved in his life? Still gave her space and privacy , which to me she misuses! Or because she could write anything as Adi trusted her completely If Adi did trust her faithfulness, then I have to say , that as a married woman she did betray her husband's trust. What she confesses in her diary ,that what began as polite acquaintance with Yash becomes an intimate relationship. Frowned upon by society . Flaunts the sacrament of marriage itself. Both Yash and Pooja made informed choices, to quit their marriages. Their untimely death opened the doors to much negative ,scathing speculation about their relationship. In this episode Pooja's weather beaten old diary will open for the second time, before another soldier of truth.
This time Zoya and Arjun both, will dust the pages to excavate the truth out of closed pages of Pooja Hooda's dairy. Zoya has decided to reveal the truth behind Pooja and Yash's fatal accident. So that two souls are set free from all the ignominy that still to date, revolves around their names even after death. This will not be an easy task for Zoya as she will be given a hard time not by strangers but her own kith and kin.
Children's actions are not only limited to themselves, but they also have a far reaching effect on their families too. Waseem gives Zoya a tough time, regards her decision to reopen the case. Where her fathers puts her efforts down to her obduracy which before too, landed her in much trouble. Luckily for Zoya, her mother encourages her daughters, brave endeavour at doing the right thing. Praises Zoya for having a crack at hardships which, have made her stronger and assertive, than she was ever before. Praise motivates people/children into pursuing their goal.
Rajveer is back on the scene. His Absconding stops and in disguise he shows up at the hospital , to claim Mahi's help in slaying common enemies. Namely Rajveer s target continues to be Harsh Hooda. While Mahi he expects will go for Zoya. I am still unsure if Mahi is fobbing off Rajveer? or she having a soft corner for Zoya? But its noteworthy that Zoya is cold with Mahi.. Its once bitten twice shy attitude. Zoya gives Mahi a cutting innuendo, when she tells Mahi there never was anything between them , nor will be. Does Zoya mean a grievance or a bonding?
Where Zoya now reveals to all where she stands. Two others, Arjun and Mahi conceal certain issues. Mahi the serious issue of still colluding with the renegade cop Rajveer. Arjun keeping Adi in the dark, about giving to Zoya access to Pooja's secret diary!
Arjun the angel of virtue, comes to give support to the two sisters,Zoya and Noor battling to expose the truth. I loved the way Arjun's uses his RJ skills with Zoya when he hands over Pooja's diary. Like Adi ,he too is anxious about how Zoya will take to the heart breaking contents of crucial diary? Arjun balances his statements. Where the diary will prove that Yash and Pooja truly loved each other and this should negate the HH's accusation that Yash killed Pooja. On the other hand he asks Zoya would she be able to live with the memories of Yash and Pooja being in love?? Arjun proves to be so sensitive towards an abandoned wife's sentiments, whose husband left her for another man's wife! Mind you, he is moved by Zoya's conviction, that the time to grieve over the past is over! its time for Zoya to act now! expose the real truth about Yash! and Hoodas ?
Arjun actually understands , being a good woman ,Zoya may be overwhelmed by the truth in Pooja's diary, where all is revealed. He pinpoints certain key arguments, this time like a true lawyer! that will overturn his father's falsifications of Yash being clinically depressed. Arjun declares. Yash and Pooja loved each other, the last thing they wanted to do was to die! They wanted to live to celebrate their true love! he even explains the diary being stolen property of Missouri evidence depot ,could not have been presented in court by him. But now as she reopens the case the contents can be used to override all defamation charges against Yash. Arjun leaves Zoya. Allows her private, one to one audience with her past which was quite different to how she lived it.
It was more like expecting to come across accounts that would cut her up. Her husband's affair! Instead Zoya selects, all that melts her heart. Pooja's narration that tells Zoya how much Yash treasured her; she was his porcelain doll. Unique , Untouched, by the crooked ways of the world. How passionately Yash loved her. But failed to find the much needed friend in wife Zoya. How he felt he could romance Zoya , but could never really share with her the worries that plagued his heart and mind. That Zoya would go to pieces and that he couldn't bear. His fragile porcelain doll breaking. Pooja's account, weakens Zoya. Once more her failing as the good wife, who acts as a buttress for her husband, through his rough times, reminds her of those times when being there for Yash must have stopped him from reaching out to her.Because she never gave him the confidence of being strong enough to carry his burdens. Pooja's diary gradually reveals the truth about what both Pooja and Yash were looking for in their partners. Pooja sought passion from Aditya in her marriage, who believed marriage was a culmination of strong and sound friendship. Hence Pooja went astray to substitute the overload of friendship with passion, that Yash offers her. Finds, needed fervour in a relationship in Yash. Yash, on the other hand, yearned for the supportive friendship element in Zoya which was amiss in their marriage. Passion for Zoya was not enough. He needed a companion too, who would listen and support him. Rather than inadvertently pressurize him into appeasing her...
Zoya instead of breaking into a thousand pieces, due to her subjectivity. To me she seems fairly detached from the Pooja Yash EMA.. objectively she views Pooja's records and begins to fathom the crux of why these people were drawn to each other? Zoya acknowledges the effect their partners illicit affair has on both her and Aditya. But Zoya for her part , takes responsibility for where she went wrong in creating a dent in her marriage to Yash. Zoya also learns through Pooja's diary about frequent hot words between Adi and his father. Trivial matters that were often blown out of proportion due to Adi's foul temper. Pooja confesses, in those times Adi would be so wound up by his father ,that he even failed to see her love!
In the main Zoya concludes that what the world sees as a taboo relationship between Yash and Pooja, was after all true love. true love that began with matters of common interest between the two. A sensitivity towards each others needs, support and goodwill towards each others trades.. all showing a compatibility towards each other.Till both adults realized they wanted to be together for the rest of their lives.
The question is were these true lovers, justified in their actions? For in order to be together they would have to nullify their existing relationships? In some societies globally their action would not be frowned upon. The view that people have the right to legally do away with the bind of a loveless legal liaison. Other societies, where faith and tradition is interwoven in the moral fabric of society. Consecration of the sacred institution of marriage , by falling into EMA is vehemently discouraged. Married couples are expected to work at their relationship, not do away with it! as a long term solution. I have no mind to moral police.. so I leave you with my thought.. both Arjun and Zoya feel, Pooja and Yash found true love in each other.. is this true love , pure love?? hamlet53 28.6.18
