Beautifully done. I liked the way you correlated morning / new begining to basera/haven. This was one movie where I felt that life was very cruel to both the sisters...but the beauty was that both gave up for the other.

Misti, I too felt that the life was unfair to both. But the elder sister (Rakhi ) lost more - her lost years and her family too. But it was a loss to both sisters and husband who always had that emptiness for losing his soul mate.

Angie I don't know who lost more or who lost less...yes the elder sister lost her years and her family but the younger one thinks and also lives with the guilt that she took something that belongs to the elder sister.

I always wondered about the ending of that show. In a way, that was the best ending for everyone. But did it really give peace to Rakhi's family. She made that decision where the life was going to go on as before if she hadn't been cured. But her sister/husband still would have to live with an additional knowledge that they caused her relapse. Also her DIL (the one who figured out the truth and knew it was a sacrifice) would live with the knowledge that she is hiding a big truth from the family for the rest of their lives. So would it have been better if Rakhi had left with everyone's knowledge that she was cured but she walking out because life hadn't stood still in her absence and she had been left behind. Either way, the family would feel guilt for the rest of their lives. Overall, it was a very sensitive movie. Yes she could have told everyone but would the younger sister let her go? No one knows the younger one better than the elder sister...hence maybe she took this decision...But you are right that the movie was a very sensitive one.

Misti/Rajsri, this VM is for you. Thanks Angie🤗 and to me this is your best work. You might not like making sad VMs but you do pick the right scenes and make a story. Kishore Kumar is my favourite singer and to me no one can sing sad/philosophical songs as well as he can. I chose those songs because I wanted some VMs to be just focused on Avinash's expressions. Misti, thanks for suggesting this song. I would have never thought of it myself. You are welcome . I didn't get it when I heard it the first time and had to give time to connect it to Dev's character. But once I heard the first stanza and Rajsri asked me to include her favorite scene in a song, everything became clear.Good and you made a beautiful VM.

Rajsri: I have used yours and Misti's favorite scene of Dev in its entirety in this song. Hope you like its placement. Again, was shaking my head when I extracted this scene. This was a 5 minute sequence with barely 20 seconds given to Dev and rest given to Padma and her emotions. Anyway, I ended up using it all.

The last scene used in the song is one of my favorites. It was a longer scene that unfortunately I couldn't use entirely because of the song length. But this is one scene where Avinash excelled. I may use the rest of the scene in some other song. The last scene is also one of my fav's. Both Avinash and Rubina did excellent work here.

I have called it "Dev's Lost Hope".

Friends, here is my next upbeat VM from Radhika's perspective. After making a VM on Misti's song, I had to make it to show some justice for Radhika. It is titled "Radhika's Dance of Joy". It is depicted on the song "Aaj phir jeene ki tamana" from the movie "Guide". I thought of this song last year when they showed Radhika dancing with abandonment at finding out that Dev was her KK.
