IKRS Wednesday 29th June 2016 ep 290 My Take ~ flash of lightning! sparks old flames!
Love is like damp spark plug in an automobile that sometimes owing to circumstances turns moist and clammy, thus ceases to ignite the engine. Often before discarding it as obsolete, its best to give it a jump start to check if it still holds dormant power within itself that could kick start the motor into action once again. Viplav and Dhani are in a similar situation where the power of their Ishq is tested if any at all still exists? and if it does can it give power to their sorry emotional state of affairs?
Viplav missing in the Mumbai riots. In Banaras Dashrant too will not be sitting idle twiddling his thumbs. He uses his contacts. Phones back the impatient witch with a number of some big wig in Mumbai who'll locate vipalv's whereabouts. She needs to send Viplav's photo for ID purposes. She does. Thereafter, Kamini gets a call from the big wigs PA. Kamini categorically tells him, her husband went to visit someone at the named hospital, so others might be with him. But only her husband is to be saved! none other! by this the witch means dump Dhani!!
As if the Civil disturbances outside are not enough to confine the two lovers in the barn .The gods in heaven too are in a sporty mood. Generously, tenderly, they pour their grace upon this pair of love lost, love torn lovers! Open then the heavens! the deities command! Send down all thunder lightning ! sheets of heavy rain! For today they decree a revival of Ishq between Viplav and Dhani! a cleansing of their souls! They the deities, command a further delay in these lovers exit from this barn confine! Viplav stands at the window, wipes off the set condensation on the widow pane and peers out.. its pouring out there! this sets them back even more from leaving this place. He twists his head back as he hears Dhani frantically yank at the door, twist the key in the door from the inside, to get out of this place. Before she manages to open the door he runs across and rams himself against the door to stop it from opening, and where is she going? He wants to know. Decisively she yells in his face, vidhu! her mother! Viplav replies has she lost it? no cars are running out there? how will she go? she doesn't care, she'll stay low but she'll manage and she has to go! she argues as he looks down at her. She looks queasy but then she's being plain stubborn! He reminds her take a look at herself can't even hold herself up!aand she plans to skirt her way back home? but Dhani argues she has to go! she doesn't give a toss for her life! Viplav replies spontaneously ,but he cares for her life. She glares up at him! she has to go! she will she screams as she tries to yank open the door .. he rephrases his sentence , at least Vidha cares for her life! her mother cares for her life ? for their sake stay ,Viplav requests. But adamant she still yanks the key which snaps! and stupidly holds it up in her hand, spurns it aside in sheer frustration. Viplav rolls his eyes, well done she has just blown the only way they had for getting out of here! she hasn't blown anything! and continues to pull at the locked door. Stressed due to the snapped key she presses her hand against her forehead, her stress levels spike up, heaven all knows how Vidha must be? she reflects aloud. Viplav calms her, the past five year old history is not helpful , he needs to maintain calm between the two of them and he consoles, not to worry , they'll find way out from here. Yet Viplav accepts too, that Dhani can be prone to be highly strung .soon enough he gets his answer as Dhani takes one look at the rain beating down at the windowpane! she takes an her decision. Viplav might not as well be there!he watches dumbfounded as she uncovers a stool , attempts to brings it to the window!with the view to clearly make a getaway via the window! Daft woman he thinks.. he rolls his eyes and recalls from the past determined Dhani's daring deeds!so he saunters up to her before she attempts to mount the stool asks her dryly, now what is she up to? what does she want to do? Dhani snaps at him. what can she do ? there's riot outside! people are at each others throats ! she knows not how vidha and her mum are? out there! she can't save her own skin and sit idle over here! she has to do something! If only Viplav can tell her never mind the riots outside, what of the emotional disruption caused in their lives where they are at each other's throats! She defies him, embarks on top of the stool. Viplav watches her helplessly ,but still like before, utterly concerned and smitten by her, he appeals to her with his palms poised, held up as if in devotion.. to catch his goddess of Ishq lest she falls! Dhani please get down, she turns her head and over her shoulders she notes his palms held up, and rejects his devotion, orders him tomove his hands as she will not fall! But one yank at the window to open it, this goddess's embodiment lurches back only to be saved by the arms of her most ardent devotee!..carrying her in his arms saving her from a fall Viplav looks down into her big bold wide eyes.. humm he can spot some embarrassment in them ! but both cannot stop the tunes of their souls, yes the colour of our Ishq remains pure my beloved ,their souls sing from the same song sheet! But Viplav needs to hold back at bit, now that he has her in a vulnerable position he s not going to spare !tell her straight, he is fed up of telling her that Vidha is his daughter too.. Viplav growls into her face!oh yes..her upturned looks tell him and he continues, whether she accepts it or not, he knows for sure that Vidha is his daughter! so don't think he's not bothered about her! he rumbles ! and in a huff he jogs her carried body and rather unceremoniously stands her back on her feet on the ground! he fumes and she rattles off to ,he needn't worry about Vidha she was there for her and always will be! Viplav too fumes, this issue of Dhani snatching his right over his flower fairy his daughter, remains a bone of contention between these two! but this time, this place! the barn is a god sent, a therapy room where their differences can be sorted out! Viplav sees it as such and he tells her straight, he appreciates she looked after Vidha over the last five years ,but in that too she herself is at fault, she never bothered to contact him , never told him about his daughter or herself for that matter! He accuses her! Dhani shirks away from him as his logic discomforts her,shedoesn't want to talk about it. Angrily he pulls her back and fights back ,but he wants to talk about it! The emotional weather turns inclement between them! He rages and releases the emotional storm raging inside him, he is tired of fighting with her , tell him now he can't take it anymore! He clenches his jaw . This is the edge she wants over him for hurting her for so long , no she won't speak about it! She screams back at him.He pulls her back by the arm and begins to walk into her closer; wide eyed she looks into his eyes, he wouldn't dare? But she knows her Viplav;in his madness; He controls himself. He edges forward, again reasons with her ,speaks calm into her secure mother hood; look Vidha has kaki and Parshiya both will look after her . As for her she only has him to look out for her; If he allows her to leave under such dangerous circumstances, and should something untoward happens to her then what justification would he give to Vidha and kaki both? He barks into her face as he backs her fully into the wall by his imposing frame!Dhani looks up at him mesmerized by his disciplined rage.. He growls into her face, she can't even walk with stability and here she is thinking of leaping out of the window to escape? get some sense in that block of hers! He mutters as he pokes her in the head and recedes back, fine go then! He's damned if he stops her! But like a stubborn donkey in silent protest, he sits down on the stool she plans to use to haul her up..go on then! won't stop her;he turns his head to see if she's fine.. God she takes more out of him then she puts in! fed up Viplav wipes his face with his palms .
At AN lamps of devotion are lit by dadi before lord Shiva for the safety of Dhani ,Viplav and Dhani's child in the wake of the Mumbai riots. Kanak silently protests dadi's prayers for Dhani and her child's safety. She also sounds cranky and disapproves on health grounds, at dadi s attempt of fasting , completely till she gets news of Viplav's safety, Kanak rages silently if by fasting this old woman falls sick, she will have to be her who will need to tend to her needs! Does Kanak dread the return of the she devil back at AN? once again her losing out her power base? Dadi prays in obeisance before lord Shiva.. may god protect Dhani and her child.
Dhani and her child's protector is with her!.. dadi's prayer has been granted before she even requested the god. With Viplav chivalry is not dead , this lady that he adores may wind him up but does not take away from Viplav that a woman needs to be respected! He notices from the corner of his eyes that while he sits ,an injured Dhani stands .. erhh looking rather pathetic.. he was a bit short in her face.. so he stands up and gently sits her down.. he knows after his telling off she won't be using the stool to escape! Hands in his pockets he hears the rain outside.. hard to miss that rain , thunder and lightning it does create a feeling of seeking cover, a vantage ,a sanctuary to save one's self from the elements of the weather.. these monsoon rains , create an ambience of romance and love.. what with the winds beating against the window glass the pitter patter of the of the rain.. stirs the spirit of Ishq in both? Or just Viplav .Dhani stands up and walks away from the stool.. Viplav turns his head and his lion like narrowed eyes.. silently watch his lioness who seems tame for the moment.. he watches as painfully she bends her knees on the hay to pick up the pot of water to have a drink! Viplav gets up from his place to assist her; gently grabs the vessel from her; ready to replenish her thirst. Viplav is the vessel who still holds within himself all the love in the world , only too ready to fill her weary thirsty body with a pouring of his love if she would let him, dhani.. if only you would beloved..dhani hears his heart and turns to him as he stands beside her as if in a trance of sweet aching she too stands beside him, ready to receive what the vessel gives! He tilts the pot, Dhani ,bows her head before her god, cups her palms ready to catch the pouring of love , the cold drink of water that revives her parched throat. A thirst now quenches after five long years. In giving her the drink of love Viplav too ends up being mighty rich in spirit. For love begets love.. he pours and Dhani drinks beyond her need and the love between them over flows as water ends upon the ground! Purifying the ground they stand upon.
The clap of thunder sounds! and distances between them end! Dhani frightened willingly rests her head on his shoulder..she looks up at him .but Viplav still holds the pot in his hand.. and refrains from looking down into her eyes..his honour is nonnegotiable! he will not as she says take advantage of her ..loves her too dearly to do that. The way she looks up into his face , the way she stands close to him, gives Viplav the message this is his Dhani! The jagged bolt of lightning ! has struck him and her too; and the two jagged edges fit into each other as one ! The puzzle of the colour of their love burns on beloved! prevails as Viplav' hands grabs on to his beloved Dhani's hands. Suddenly all resistance from her abates, Viplav loves her with his palm.. feels her face, sides away gently her hair from her forehead.. his spirit rejoices as he stares tenderly into her beautiful face.. Dhani not once did he in the past five years not pine away for her; waste his whole existence over her; Dhani, he says it, by his adoring touches to her face.. her Viplav forgot the meaning of living.. she came into his life and immersed him entirely in the kaleidoscope of the colours of her love... even their separation could not wash away the colours of her Ishq out of his life! he still stands before her today as an offering! accept him one more time , beloved he remains, utterly and for eternity stained with the colour of her Ishq! hers forever and forever Dhani Viplav's soul cries out to hers ..gently she looks up tearfully into his narrowed eyes and he moves forward and kisses her forehead! a reminder that he is hers and she is him.. totally one body , one mind and one soul such is the colour of their Ishq that none of them remain as two but continue to exist eternally as the One self! True Ishq!
The gods decree every move these lovers make.Another bolt of lightning strikes! and Viplav startles like Dhani and accidently jerks the vessel of water and douches Dhani within water from the pot she gets wet from head to toe drenched in his love .. the act makes the deities smile in the heavens this ablution ,this cleansing of grievances between these two seems washed .. theirs was the union which the deities had witnessed so how could the gods not bless these two good souls? But they are mere mortals and weakness does crop up between them. Viplav has to apologize to her for drenching her. She stiffly accepts and he moves off.It's like a love hate relationship ,a second ago she was fine now she seems in a strop again.. Viplav too sits down , but away from her.. he turns his head and looks backward at her, asks is she fine? Feeble nod from her tells him, the woman's wet and probably cold! Pragmatic Viplav uses his initiative and puts together a fire to prevent her from catching a chill and a runny nose as she once told him years ago she was prone to having a runny nose! Dhani watches his efforts at stirring up the flame of love in her heart too.. but umm a lot has changed between them.. the straw catches fire but vilav and Dhani sit distantly .. he turns his head and says in a guttural voice ,she can closer to the fire if she wants too? she does which is welcoming for Viplav at least she takes it positively ..both stare at the fire pensively will it rekindle the fire of love between them? love yet again will go up in smoke? As much has happened between the two. Many questions remain unanswered. Dhani thinks best leave things unsaid. She chooses to have rest. All that running, ducking and diving has tired her out.. slowly she sinks sided onto the straw. Her hands tucked under her head. Viplav gives her sided glares as he reflects, how much we loved one another Dhani, where did hate come from?Such nearness between them, yet such distance.. why won't she accept that Vidha is his daughter.. Viplav wrestles in his mind! it's a mixed fire of love and hate. Love for his daughter Vidha and hate for her mother attitude that denies him his rights..
Someone had to inform the witch that both Viplav and Dhani are missing persons in the Mumbai, riots the someone is none other than Parshiya , who turns up at kamini s hotel room. He wants to know where Viplav was? finds out he too is missing that Kamini is using her contacts to have him searched in Mumbai. He discloses Dhani too is missing from the hospital . He was on his way to the police station to give Dhani's name in the missing person's list so he thought he would check if Viplav had information about her and begs her to look for Dhani too along side.. Kamini has the ideal moment to taunt him for his rudeness with the hospital. As expected Kamini cusses Dhani too, she not sure Dhani's married ,has a child and she still eyes her husband Viplav maybe Dhani likes to play around with two men at the same time. Once again Parshiya flies at Kamini's throats tells her to watch both her filthy mind and mouth for is she doesn't then he'll sort both out for her and warns her Dhani has nothing to do with her Viplav !and Parshiya storms out of her room! mad emotionally mangled witch Kamini turns into a nervous wreck she wonders where Viplav is..?? Parshiya safeguards Dhani's honourable name once again!
Viplav is where the gods have put him as Dhani's lord protector . With the fire burning both on the ground he sits on, in his heart Vilplav is lost in his thoughts. A long piece of straw runs from this make shift fire, burns all the way up towards her pallu, symbol of her virtue this time Viplav stubs and stamps out the fire from getting to her, with his bare hands then folds her sari pleats out of the way! Suddenly he can see a drop of water on Dhani's forehead! The roof leaks !gives him the chance to get closer to her! not for any other reason but to save her from the drip torture of rain! ahh yes! the blessed rain that turns his leg into a pillow now cradles his beloved's head! The rain gets playful makes the roof of the barn leak! but Viplav also has a solution for this water from the heavens in drops and drips ! he collects it the cup of this palm over over her sleeping face; Dhani sleeps peacefully.. like a babe..
Morning arrives .. Viplav sleeps sprawled right next to her his right arm folded under his head..Dhani sleeps huddled onhis shoulder.. she stirs, wipes her face ,turns her head finds a sleeping..calmly she sits up and he stares at her too, then sits beside her on the hay.. like a dignified married couple undergoing a separation.. Dhani tries to get up and moans in pain..he reminds her its a gunshot wound will take time to repair.. to careful she snides at its a bit too late to support her now.. everything has changed and he replies tersely. Nothing has changed.. there is banging on the door looks like the rioters have caught up with them..
Yes its longgg.. bad hammie sorry late post.. was fixing the sparkplug ! hamlet53 30.6.16
