Sana Di… Hands off to you my Lioness with a Finess… Beautifully explained. I'm gonna refrain from stating anything explicitly, but heres my two cents…
I am not going to say that Shiv is in love with Gauri as I am not one who has been enriched through this experience they call "love". I'm just going to outline some points to ponder.
I had written this in a previous post, but here goes again. Shiv's relationship with Ipshitta is that built from the memories of childhood and has been nurtured over the years. Apparently they fell in love at the age of fifteen. The way he behaved with Ipshitta, depicted a sense of insecurity, possession. But when it comes to Gauri, its as like he's fully secured knowing she only sees him, and rather than being possessive about her, he feels possessed by her. Despite being in any situation, he thinks of her first. Hence, when fate dropped him off at a crossroad in life where he was forced to choose between love and "love", he chose that which weighed upon him deeper.
Despite these five years, he clings to those childhood memories, but the name on his lips now forms another sound… "Gauri". In today's episode, he claimed to have forgotten those heartbeats that had passed in another's name, and now his life is now written in his wife's name. When he is with Gauri an unexplainable sweet sensation engulfs him (as he said) and it is not the so-called "love" he once experienced. But he is content. You could say that this is all just a result of his commitment, but then he was committed to Ipshitta too right? What happened there?
They say that love is beyond everything… It is about trust, faith and sacrifice. But if Shiv "sacrificed his love" then why is it that he yearns for Gauri even today. I mean the way he was sentimental and asking her why she never gave herself more time… Him more time. Is that all a farce?
He was able to hear her pained cry in that hospital hallway, when it was apparent no other had… That gives the SG relationship the powerful essence of pain. His undebatable silence as she had taken his hand and rested it upon where the symbol of their togetherness was growing, and his unmasked and genuine happiness at her smile and most of all, his complete willingness and ability to exceed all distances and become "one" with her that "fateful" night. I mean you have to have at least some sort of feeling for someone whom you go to such lengths with right?
These are just points I noticed, and again… I am not stating anything explicitly. Only time will tell what is truth as it is I suppose!
And btw, what makes you sad?? Please don't be… Warna main bhi… sniffles…
Cheers,
dc
Holy shmokes Neetu darling.. Dammit, that was MIND-BLASTING... Awesome points raised and I totally agree with u 110%.. U always say this but today I will say it out loud too.. It's like u read my mind.. I think sometimes we are too stubborn to accept what we really want from life... Hence, the story of Shiv ji.. Anyhow, ek baat kahoon? If the writing profession doesnt work out, consider taking up law dammit!! U'll make the prosecution sweat in their 3-piece with this brilliant mind and grilling questions of urz... Hayee.. And $$$ ki tu barsaat ho jayegi *ahem*.. Bas hummei na bhoolna tab... 1% share should be mine since I suggested the profession.. 😳
Love ya loadz!! Rock on my bootiful gudiya 😃.
Sana~
