Raghunath Naik is a person who is not perfect in any way. We all remember his stunt of kicking Antara and her family from basti. It was his mistake. He didn't believe Antara that time about her mother's illness. But when he came to know the truth from Mamiji, he immediately brought them back. Even thought he didn't let Antara come with them, he ensured her security in that park at night by warning the night guards. How he rectified him?? He arranged appointment with a good doctor for Mrs. Kaul's treatment. He tried to help Antara even with money. When he threw the tape recorder from the cliff, he didn't know that it was very special for Antara. After he came to know, what did he do?? He jumped from the cliff and found that little thing from the jungle. He didn't stop there. He also wrote a fake letter to calm Mrs. Kaul down so that she didn't become ill again. Who can forget that letter reading scene?? That was so beautiful. See, he never let go of anything. If he has done something wrong, even if it was unknowingly, he will rectify that. He never backs off. He doesn't care that what will people think that he is admitting his own mistake?? He is bowing down his head to someone?? His self respect will be reduced?? NO. To him, getting forgiveness is the most important thing. And every time he does something big that makes it very hard not to forgive him. This time, his mistake is quite a huge one. But it was unintentional. Raghu was heartbroken, devastated, afraid and guilty. The consummation made him even weaker. It multiplied his guilt even thousand folds. He is not able to even talk to Antara in phone, let alone stand in front of her. His entire world is shaken. His very reason of his existence has lost her father because of him, that thought is killing him from inside. He wants some peace of mind. Not being able to share his turmoil with anyone, he at last reaches to God's home. Just thinking about his loneliness is giving me fright!!! He sleeps in the floor of Mandir seeking his redemption. It just reminded me of Dhanush in Ranjhana. When Avay deol was killed because of him in the movie, he was also running from one durgah to another to seek forgiveness from God. Then he realized that, he has to fulfill all the unfinished works of Avay Deol. That will be his redemption. Didn't it happen to our Raghu too today?? He has become so weak of the burden of that bitter truth that he was walking with the support of the pillars. I just cried watching that scene. Ayaz was too good. I can't admire him more here. He is amusing me every day with his tremendous performance. When Mrs Kaul called him, did u guys watch his reaction?? He thought it was Antara and he was feeling so helpless at that time. He was terribly sweating and taking deep breath. He was preparing himself as if it was a very difficult for him to talk to Antara now. He took the call and when Geetaji said whether she could scold him as mother, he felt so emotional. When she started talking about being careless just like Antara's father, Raghu was trying so hard to hold his cry. Ayaz's voice modulation was very good in this scene. When she said that line-
Doctor sahab to itni door hai ke aa hi nahi sakte, tum kya itni door ho ke Antara ke paas aa nahi sakte?? Sach bolo??
Raghu could not hold his tears any more. He started crying silently and he looked at God for help. He decided to tell the truth right there itself. The guilt was killing him. He didn't care that what would happen. He just gave in. But again Antara's father's philosophy stooped him.
Galtiyon ke liye ruko mat. Uski bharpaya ke liye aage barho.
Raghu is a first learner. He took that lesson. He understood that, what was done is done. Antara's father will never come back but the vacuum that is created by his absence can be filled. It is next to impossible. But still he will try. He will be a Kaul. A son to Mrs. Kaul, a perfect husband to Antara and a caring brother to Ishaan. He will protect them forever. That will be his best redemption. The buildup of Raghu's realization and the return of his courage was captured in an excellent way. Raghu regained his lost confidence and the way he said his saas to give Antara message that he will come was very good. The old courageous Raghu who used to face any kind of obstacles without any fear, who used to rectify his mistakes without any hesitation and who used to make everyone's life full of happiness is back!! Our imperfectly perfect Raghu is back!!😊
I loved the bond between Mrs. Kaul and Raghu. I am a sucker of such emotional bonding scenes when it comes to mother and son. See, this is the beauty of this separation track. Yes, Rantara's separation will give us pain but look at the other side of the coin. We will get tons of emotional family bonding scene where Raghu will literally become Mr. Kaul's son. Why do I think that Antara's mom will forgive him even before Antara and it will be Antara who will be in dilemma between her loyalty to her father and her love for Raghu??
Don't worry about precap. It's misleading. Raghu will come and break Antara's fast only. If Sattya breaks it then he will get the lambi umaar which is illogical because he is going to die. So don't worry. Chill!!!
Don't kill me for this but I am getting a gut feeling. Why do I think that after Santara marriage, we are going to love the show?? Yes, the first few days will be painful, but after that when Antara will get small hints about Raghu's innocence and DM's master plan, we are going to enjoy it a lot. She will become a sherni and make Sattu and DM's life a hell. And after the initial shock of break up, when Raghu will start to return to his old self, Rantara together will become like fire. And this time their love will be different. Not like two innocent fresh young lovers doing cho chi coo with pure heart, NO!!! It will be something soul touching. Just imagine Antara fighting and questioning DM for doing such cruelty with Raghu!!! We all missed their friendly conversation after their confession. I think the CVs are saving all the heart to heart talks for future, for the upcoming track. Yes, Raghu will not believe Antara at first because he worships DM but Aman hai na?? He is the biggest witness of this whole fiasco. When Raghu will get hint from Aman, he will start to open his eyes and then Rantara together will fight for their love. OMG!!! The real war begins then!!!!
That's it for today. Don't lose your hairs and nails on precap. All will be well.
