A lesson one may not wish to ignore from MB

In our epics, all the characters be it the heroes or the villains,all are portrayed in varying shades of grey. No one is completely black or white. Was Duryodhana the villain of MB? Were the Kaurava's solely responsible for the war? Then why were they given a glimpse of heaven if they were completely black? The parents who were blinds to their son's misdeeds, Pitamah who allowed the disrobing of his kulvadhu owing to the vacahan he gave to his father, Drona the teacher who was supposed to show them right and wrong, Yudhishtir Dharma raj who gambled away his kingdom, brothers and wife after he put himself at stake, the rest of the brothers, Panchali, Kunti, Karna, Sakuni etc etc have all contributed to the final war. If any one of them had taken a different decision or had reacted differently then, the outcome also would have been different. So it is not a person or his actions alone that decides the fate. But it is the chain reaction.

Now coming to Beyhad is Maya the Villain of the story?

Our parents teach us the first lessons of love. We learn compassion, empathy, kindness and forgiveness at our home. There is a saying that a mother is only as happy as her saddest child. In our superhero stories, Batman is just a human being who had a traumatized child hood who rose above those shackles and became a hero. In that series, Harvey Dent who had an abusive child hood has suppressed paranoia. But he fought against crimes alongside Batman, until he became "Two-face due to the acid attack. This second trauma brings his suppressed mental disorder out and he becomes a killer. But Batman saves him because he condemned his actions instead of condemning him. Isn't that the virtue of a true hero? In Beyhad that is what we essentially lacks. There are no hero's here. They are all humans with flaws who used her illness or obsessive nature, who drove her to insanity and more with their actions and complete lack of empathy and sensitivity. The only person you will feel for is the child who was so lonely and who was never heard. Her unheard cries are manifested as the madness in Maya. Does she deserve to be punished? Yes because she have also hurt innocents. But just like those innocents deserve justice the innocent child also deserves justice. So those who are innocent are free to condemn her.

"There comes a point where you no longer care if there's a light at the end of the tunnel or not. You're just sick of the tunnel.

Though, it will be a huge irony -as the person who was searching for love, all throughout her life- in return for her very own beyhadh love, will finally meet her end- whenever it happens, just loveless!

Even her birth was as a result of a loveless union. She was just a pawn for her mother to get the love that was never her's. So what better end than that?

Guys, this illustration is irrelevant, as Maya was never loved and Duryodhana was loved deeply by his parents who overlooked all his crimes.

Maya can be compared to Karna, as Karna was mocked and he wanted to earn respect and Maya wanted love.When Krishna, met Karna, he told him that one decision of his could change the whole destiny and he could have been the king but he chose adhrama and here Maya also chose adharma so that she gets justice as a child, same as Karna(also bc of his promise). The only difference is that, Karna was a better human being than maya, and he never got justice bc of the path he chose.

And another reference i can spot on, is Maya reading BG, and she will create the same illusion that Krishna used to create. Sab Maya hai.

Maya was not loved by Rajiv in initial days but was loved by Samay aka Rajiv till he died! Only thing was she did not recognise his love!
Arjun started loving her reluctantly but then he picked up & held on under very trying conditions! But Maya proved too much for him & ultimately was forced to give-up her!
Jhanvi was her companion but difficult to say she hated Maya in her early days!
There are/were a few who helped her!
Mansi, Tulsi & Lalwani! Perhaps, Lalwani was only lucky!

But, in real world too, there are none to love her? I doubt!
Maya & Duryodhana both are bull headed!
It is my way or highway! -that is their policy & because of that they are/were in difficulties!

Samay and Arjun lusted on her, they didnt love her. Jhanvi is the biggest hiprocrite

and mansi, tulsi etc, they didnt love her deeply, I mean to say romantic love, parental love, family love..

Maya and D cannot be compared. D never had a trouble childhood that made him struggle for the survival of the fittest and made him carve his own way or perish
