EDT~ ep 37,12.12.17,My stance. One that got away..?
Vyom escapes after molesting the girl he loves, the girl for whom he jumped off the roof! The girl he is about to marry! Vyom escapes from the consequences of a criminal offence.Vyom flees with Sharanya's right to personal space! Vyom gets away from serious punishment that he surely deserves..
Vyom gets away with it, because Sharanya declines to make a formal complaint about his criminal wrong doing. She realizes what befell her,she eventually managed to ward off his assault. Shranaya, despite of being shell shocked,does the right thing by creating a noise, Vyom's name.The action literally saves her from matters getting worse. Her spontaneous scream brings her parents to the door! Vyom looks as if caught out in a vile act! and it seems he would have carried on if not interrupted. But Sharanya feels the shame.. she covers the evidence from her parents at the door.
One would have expected her to let his actions be known. But Sharanya does nothing of the sort. In fact she covers up for her flustered look by saying Vyom was up to his usual pranks! By the "dare you to tell what happened looks from Vyom, makes Sharanya seal her lips! Why does Sharanya withhold the truth about Vyom's criminal actions? Can she not see that she is actually covering up his serious offence? Is she covering up for her own self respect, along with her parents? Is she anxious that in such attempted rape scenarios, the female herself is held responsible and not the molester? Shranaya's response certainly misleads her parents, and gives Vyom safe passage to leave, when she herself says, the haldi ritual is done. Vyom needs to do the rest with his family.
But once she assures her parents, and Vyom out of sight, as expected she goes into pieces. Topples everything she can get her hands on to give event to her fury. Haldi the purifying ritual suddenly makes her feel unclean and filthy. Most repulsed she wipes ! washes off the haldi put in Vyom's name! The rocking chair rocks, as Shiv silently watches her pain and shame from his invisible persona. Sharanya kneels beside the bed.. crestfallen and defiled, Vyom's flowery, loving language hits back at her. The animalistic drive, raw instinct he showed , confuses her. She questions herself about marrying such a beast! She questions her erroneous judgement.Was this the sort of person Vyom really is? He went on about respecting her. Not one, who was not after her for physical side but rather he felt true love for her! Now to her, there lies an ugly disparity between what all he professed and what he just did to her, abused! disgraced her, stripped her of the respect she deserves as his wife to be!! Now he seems to be a liar, a cheat who betrayed her trust!! Sharanya cries, he leaves her in an emotional quandary. Directionless regards this wedding.. does he love her?
Another one who absconds with something that belongs to another is the spirit medium Odhni... she flees the Bedi household after she gets hold of the letter. She expects answers about Sharanya's past in its contents! But the woman runs in way of traffic. As fate has it .. the letter drops out of her hand.. is driven over by a car..the contents are soiled.. from her eyes! Such pot luck.. someone cocks a gun at her head! Surprise its the florist delivery boy! is a spirit too? Second time in a row he confronts Odhni ??
Another one who seems to have got away is Vyom's mother Madhvi. It comes as a shock that she refers to Shiv as her trump card! Keeps his file, picture under bed! she looks for an envelope. a key. But little does she know that it's been pilfered by Odhni . Furthermore , Madhvi may use, Shiv saga, to create a debacle in the forthcoming marriage between Vyom and Sharanya.Now it 's confirmed Madhvi knows about Shiv ... or is Madhvi covering up for Rajan? some heinous crime, deed he perpetrated? That she has his best and biggest secret in her knowledge too??? At one point I even felt she knows that Shiv is perhaps alive??? Madhvi too like Sharanya behind closed doors wonders, faces a dilemma.She panics, it 's clearly topic secret information.. Madhvi too gets a knock on the door..its Rajan.. for once he has a love struck verbal interaction with Madhvi. She too is guilty.. of losing the letter and the key. He leaves, shortly, I think he came to check up on her ,if she was up to some mischief? To him she is more or less the same lack lustre wife of his, so he leaves her. But Madhvi is anxious about the missing key and letter! Even Rajan does not know that she has Shiv's stuff on him.. to tame her husband if the time comes.. the information is a security blanket for Madhvi.
With the haldi ritual over, it takes its toll on Sharanya. Exhausted, physically and emotionally she slumbers.. Shiv inclines over her, his bearded face is lined with the haldi Sharanya applied on his face, mistaking him for Vyom. Now he brings the side of his face closer to her cheeks.. their profiles nearly meet.. but Shiv ignores her lips and grazes her soft cheek with his haldi grazed cheek! Sharanya opens her eyes abruptly.. feeling this stubble as with his cheek as he applies haldi on Sharanya's other cheek! Shiv withdraws, she sits up abruptly sensing his strange presence. .Alongside, her horrible experience with Vyom, comes to her mind. repulsed she looks at her engagement ring and appears agitated! Her mother yells for her. Sharanya eventually thinks, she has to tell her mother about the traumatic and serious incident that happened between her and Vyom. Seems Sharanya lost her bearings with shock. Now that she is calmer.. she steps out of her room, takes herself down to the hall ,full of visitors. All look at her and smirk, guests and family.. she is at a loss to understand their amusement and sniggers! Finally when she does see her mother.. she totally misunderstands Sharanya's trauma, and teases her.. she went to bed with haldi on her face??? Vyom's love has cast a spell on her!!! but how can that be she washed it off in a right rage..
Sharanya looks at her reflection ..recalls Shiv inclined over her face, lining her cheeks with the haldi on his stubble.. she concludes .. she dreamt not.. he is here too.. Shiv watches her and smiles.. then recites, "you have also sensed that you are not alone.There is someone else close to you.I showed you my craziness with such finesse. That you didn't even realize that love could speak too.
So Sharanya presses no charges against Vyom.. let's him walk out of his actions without moral qualms or reprimand.. all because cv's want her to go through this marriage! What a shame! Precap suggests, Vyom vanishes! All three actors,Donal. Vikram and Namik did justice to their roles. Remember respected members, commenting on characters,is not putting down the professionalism of our main leads.. all three are stars! and breathe life into Sharanya, Vyom and Shiv as we know them...
