The action did not stop at all in this episode, it was one breathtaking rush to get Avdesh out of RV's sight....
"Love is much like a wild rose, beautiful and calm, but willing to draw blood in its defense": Mark Overby
Bhauji's uneasy truce with Arpita wavered as she came to know that the police was searching for Avdesh....if he was to be caught, she would make Arpita pay...Then she rushed to action, to make sure her babuaji is not caught. I could not get figure out where her concern stems from....sometimes it seems more like a maternal concern and yet her bitter comments about Arpita was more like a rival's......
"When I saw you, I was afraid to meet you....when I met you, I was afraid to kiss you...when I kissed you, I was afraid to love you...Now that I love you, I am afraid to lose you.": Unknown
At the hospital, Arpita's prayers were answered as Avdesh sailed through the removal of the bullet. He was wheeled into a recover room...He woke up to see Arpita by his side, they eyes held each other as they clasped hands...Sarvan left to give them some privacy but came back in a rush...the police have come and were searching for Avdesh. Arpita held her husband's hand tightly
...I won't let anything happen to you...with my last breath I will protect you....The look on Avdesh's face was torn between anger and the need to commit murder, that he had been so reduced that his innocent wife could be the one to protect him......He who had never hidden behind a woman had now been reduced to this!....In determination, he took of the IV drip and hualed himself up, ably helped by Arpita and Sarvan. Just in the nick of time they made it out the hospital, thanks to Sarvan's help....
Outside, the other gang members came running up and urged Avdesh to go off with Arpita....So they did, getting on a bike and dashing off, just in time to be witnessed by the police.....The barriers set up on the roads were nothing, Avdesh run through them all in his bid to getaway from the police.
RV came out running, frustration etched clearly on his face. Today had not been a good day for him, always one step behind Avdesh...his anger clear for all to see. He orders on the radio that if Avdesh is seen he is to be shot on sight....behind him, Bhauji stood fearful.
My thoughts:
The track is clearly set for a cat and mouse chase by RV and Avdesh. But in the meantime we will see some sweet and tender moments between Avita. After all they had been through, it is only right to do so. But I remain a bit uncomfortable, if they do so all this during being on the run.....I know he is a gunda, but suddenly it seems like he has become the only criminal in the world!😆....it seems a poor way of repaying Arpita's love and devotion. She has seen enough in the last few days to have the final scales removed as to what her husband's life entails. Surely, they could have some calm moments to be romantic?...though a night in the jungle isn't so bad..😉😆
So this makes me think that once Avdesh has time to pause and think, he will look at Arpita and see her innocent face filled with love for him. Regret and sorrow will fill him at what he had reduced her to, running with him like a common criminal, making her do things that she would not normally do (lie, run and evade the law)...He will then admit that he has not done good by her, that his life as a gunda in affecting her....he may even then acknowledge the need to reform....to give her the chance at having a decent life. Even if reformation does not come into his mind, his need to change the status quo will drive him forward.
In the meantime, I think Bhauji will try to hold on tight to him. She had let Arpita make this decision but that is all. She is not ready to let Avdesh go far. So there will be more clashes in the future.
