Gulaal always remember 2 significant moments she shared with Vasant: Their first meeting and the bangle one. They didn't spend that much time together really but whatever they did she are was very special.
Today when she saw Kesar playing the dhol, she could have remembered Vasant without actually being drawn towards Kesar. Anyone can play the dhol and she could easily reminisce about Vasant but the expressions after she snaps out kind of say it all. Her emotions were being drawn towards Kesar rather than just 'Oh Vasant did the same thing'. Let's not forget that she has seen Kesar play the dhol before but back then they had a cold war going on. Now the matter is different. I also thought she wanted to go out and dance! CAN THAT HAPPEN please??
This should be the first and last scene where she does think of Vasant after seeing Kesar because otherwise it will be just too confusing for the viewers. We all know that she has special places for both Vasant and Kesar but if she is to fall in love with the latter than it has to be for who he is.
I do not want to be a sulking viewer in this post today. Yet I would want to say that I am not a happy viewer either. She can remember about Vasant. It is not easy for her to forget him. But she can't be associating Kesar's actions with Vasant. She had seen him play the Dhol during the Kesar and Talli Sagai day also. I would have wanted a better justification for her attraction towards him. We all know she is experiencing all the selfless aspect of Kesar's love. Yet the next step towards him could have been minus the association of a Dhol playing flashback that too of Vasant. The scene in the jeep was understandable. A totally different scenario for her to be seeing him in a different light . That would have added uniqueness. Well I must say, without really wanting to do, Iam getting tired of Vasant, Vasant,Vasant. She can fall for Kesar for his selfless love, for the person that he is, but she need not associate Vasant's memories in Kesar's actions like Dhol, bangles,etc. Or she can. But the next step towards Kesar could have been in the context of a different situation other than this Dhol.
Yesterday I saw her remembering Sarufui's words that with their child Vasant would be back in the family. Her mind should not be inclined to Kesar because she would want to believe that Vasant's soul will be back in their home.I would find that as a COMPROMISE on Gulaal's part. I am not liking it that way.
Just my opinion, Anyways, I have read Lennie's and Srushti's understanding too. But I am not content with the way Gulaal's fondness/liking/attraction/new experience is taking shape given these constant reminders of Vasant or Vasant-like or Vasant-type actions in Kesar. That is total injustice to Kesar. They need not add such scenes where she would be reminded of any Vasant related factors.
Sorry guys, I have just got tired of this name Vasant to the extent that in real life I might not take a husband with this name Vasant.
Disclaimer: I respect Gulaal's love for Vasant. But she needs to see Kesar as Kesar.

May be this is the reason of this cut and past effect of scene. 
Lets see.
