Me saying,it was a superb analysis In di is like suraj ko chirag dikhana. So not going there.You are becoming frantically good at edits.That first edit of this analysis In di, set me thinking. Why Anjali? And then as I read, I understood. Yes, In di among those dear to us, if compelled to make a choice, we do tend to choose and care for those we think are weaker and need us most. The stronger one can fend for herself. The truth of Shyam when revealed would only shock Khushi whereas it would shatter Di for life. Khushi was his present and future. But Di was also his past, his only tie to his happy carefree fun filled days when he slept with sukoon as his mother tucked him into bed. When that world toppled before his eyes like a pack of cards, he braved the storm with her and for her.And Khushi...was a dream he had dared to dream...I dont know, but somewhere in the back of his mind maybe a fear lurked that what was happening to him was too good to be true, that is why he believed the worst of Khushi so easily, that she was having an affair with his sister's husband. He felt threatened and betrayed once again.
oh i like frantically good at edits. 😳😃😆 yes, di was his tie to yesterday, his first day on earth, she was sukoon, she was proof of his existence in another time. as i grow older and one by one my elders go, people who called me by my pet name dwindle to a handful, it is a funny feeling... as though all those days are getting obliterated... even memory doesn't seem efficient enough to hold on to it all. but even more, as if i might float away, all the strings attaching me to my yesterday, cut one by one. the last string literally is my bro... i dread to think what might happen to us when one of us goes. we are a family prone to disappear fairly early... anjali is not just his sister, nor he just her bro... they are each others link to their entire life before. they give each other roots, are each others roots. khushi is intelligent enough to get that and knows he can never be happy if his sis suffers... lovely. what might have seemed so easily just soap hysteria, takes on meaning because specific emotions are understood and connected to.
interesting thought in red. probably right too. an anxiety lurked deep perhaps ever since sheesh mahal... plus maybe it felt like a repeat of what had happened there... this time his sis will pay. he flew all over the place. i also felt... and will write in 185, that maybe just for an instant, he stood where his mother had stood on that fateful night of the other wedding. watching her husband in the arms of another or with another. did he feel like his mother for a moment? ah, whatever it was... all the shades and lurking shadows of that scene hit him and blended into his mind, his being... and nothing was the same that moment on.
