😃😆


Fire was the central theme to another of Gul's shows that I loved .The whole Fire in the factory' was where it all began in that show. There was also a beautiful promo shot on the heroine getting a premonition to the link to her past.👏..which ofc, played out over months and months...😉😆


A leap later, I found an engaging pyromaniacal hero burning down the dhaba of the heroine. Kerosene thrown all over and one flick of the lighter...and her dreams were burned down😲...days later, another beautiful mini- fire encounter where the hero discovers the identity of his new cook...😉

I decide to check out another show from the same team, and get welcomed by a precap of another burning factory. 😲I give a resigned smile😃, promisisng to sit through what can only be a repetitive exercise...after all, IN HOW MANY DIFFERENT WAYS CAN YOU TAKE A FIRE SCENE???🤔

...And I am pleasantly surprised.😆

This is a deliberate, preplanned attempt by the hero to burn down what stands in his way. 😲

Sahir is determined to get his way...and he has convinced himself this is the way of the world'. He approves an innovative😉 gas cylinder truck accident to achieve his end...

What I found striking👏 about this scene was the way it was diffused with Arzoo's story. She moves forward towards a bright future...in anticipation...eagerness...


She is a creator.

He burns down her past- the factory she almost laid down her life for...ashes remain of the dreams of many she was trying to preserve...

He is a destroyer...

And they both move forward...ready to enter a journey together...

This is what I am going to enjoy about the show...there is a contrast to every comparison!👍🏼 Kudos to the team!👏

Yes but when that hero burned down the dhaba...the heroine set his car ablaze 😆
Let's see what Arzoo does when and if she finds out.

Loving both of Gul's shows 👍🏼

lovely post dear 👍🏼 just loved your creator vs destroyer idea...

their contrasting character reflects in the way they deal with their lives...I mean it's pretty obvious that sahir's past was horrible but arzoo's life is not a bed of roses either...but see the way they decided to deal with it..
Arzoo took the responsibility of making her and her family's life better...found solace in little things like mangoes gunjing etc...she connected herself to nature...she didn't block the way to her heart...and above all she really wants to live her life...moral of the story-.she believes in letting go and moving on ...she believes in creating a better future even if her past was bad...
but on the other hand, sahir drowned himself in work...converted himself into a emotionless money maker...cut himself off from little pleasures of life..started hating everything he once loved...he is destroying his present and future because his past was bad...he is incapable of letting go...he wants to fight pain with pain...he believes in destroying everything good to call it even with evil
and this is why these two are perfect for each other...because they are going to complete eachother...even pure creation is meaningless without the concept of destruction...as destruction itself is a part of construction...good can't be good without the presence of evil...
sahir needs arzoo to stop him from destroying himself...but arzoo needs sahir to learn that sometimes for a greater good you need to be a little bad...sometimes life leaves you with no other option except going against your ethics...
please ignore the typos...these long posts are not my thing 😆

😆 Yep! That was some heroine!

That scene- such a befitting tit for tat!👏

Arzoo- I guess she will know only much later...how heartless this humsafar can be!😲😡😉

Hi,

Thank U for such a long and interesting comment.😳

The contrast is so beautifully portrayed indeed!👏

But we don't know what Sahir has gone through...The problem is he believed once...and when that was shattered, he stopped believing.

Arzoo- has not had only good things happen to her...but somehow, she was not led on to be let down...

She learned early enough in life, not to expect from certain relationships...what she has learned, she will keep it close to her heart too...the manifestation may not be violent...but she will be stubborn.😉

@chicksoup: I absolutely love the thought you put into your posts..
@ silky_harshad : the analogy in bold above, is just apt for our starcrossed couple.. it's exactly how I perceive their journey.. ❤️

Fire.. So ordinary, yet it means so many different things to different people .. the thing I loved about your post is how you've added yet another dimension to fire and it's outcome..
(about the previous show! Grrr.. I waited and waited and waited for an interesting plot that actually dealt with the fire in their past, but was hugely disappointed towards the end.. 🥱 Until the leap came along.. 😆😉)

Back to HS, Sahir has apparently destroyed many hopes and dreams, to fulfil his; or as we now know that the seemingly ruthless act is in fact a defense mechanism to stay in control, of both his power and emotional disconnect..
In his context, fire consumes people's dreams, illuminates his facade and fuels his belief in his hard set principles.
But has he achieved what he set out to do?

Maybe not.. because fire is also a mediator between vanishing and appearing forms. We have Arzoo, whose faith in her dreams and herself remains intact.

Fire is also often equated with birth and regeneration; that factory destruction, although destroyed her family's source of income, it must have strengthened her in ways more than one..
She certainly is a creator, one who not only wishes for a better tomorrow but is also prepared to work towards it (moving to Mumbai)

And lastly, the romantic in me had to associate it with their mushkil prem kahani..🤪
Fire is also viewed by some as a symbol of purification.. the old growth has to be burnt to ashes for new one to sprout, like in a forest fire which is often synonymous with destruction.
Her seemingly perfect bubble has burst, and the fire stoked his ruthlessness, destroying another ounce of innocence in his heart.
And a new journey begins, which leads them to each other.

Now we would have to wait and watch if they let their inner flame rise from deep within, to bind them into an intimate and warm companionship. Or will it go down back into substance and consume them like hate and vengeance?

P.S. : I get carried away sometimes.. 😆
Oh and yes, a pyroholic for sure! 😉

For sure, you are a pyroholic...🤗

And how you write when you let that fire consume you!

Fire as a symbol of purification..and life growing after the fire...fantastic!👏

Also, fire and metal!😉 - Purification as well as casting...moulding...strengthening..

Chingaari ka khauf na dena hume,
apne dil me aag ka dariya basaaye baithe hain,
jal jaate kab ke iss aag me,
par tere didaar ki khaatir iss dil ko sambhaale baithe hain.
