Do u think Gauri is right at her part ? No , I don't believe that Gauri is justified in her actions and her expectations from her husband as well. Its not enough jus to stay stuck in a marriage , a lot goes into making it work , Gauri , once who vouched for her love for her husband and faced death , seems a disinterested wife and a full time mommy lost in a different world.. living in a illusion , refusing to see the glaring and seeping cracks in her relation with her husband…
Post the 5 year leap, its only too apparent that Gauri has satisfied herself having stuck to Shiv and is making no effort whatsoever to be the wife or a partner to him… but jus remaining a mere maid and not a mom… to his kids! Shame!
Shiv on the other hand seems to be more interested in making the marriage work and leaving a life… and compromising more…
Gauri deserves no empathy forget sympathy for the situation that she is , for as I see, she has never made any compromises to get what she has got to day.. where as Shiv Kapoor despite all his intentions, has given up on a life he so envisioned for himself, for the sake of a woman who vouched her so called selfless love for him and no seems to remain a mere maid servent and mommy for namesake to her kids.. living in a illusionary world!
Do u think Dadi is right when she say a wife shud jugle both her relationships n specially the one which is the reason for the new ones ?
Yes, 100 percent ! Every relation needs , once bonded , needs to be nourished and cared for , and not meant to be a passing obsession as it has for Gauri. Gauri has only treated her love for Shiv as an obsession to be with him… and she has , call it destiny. But the woman has never been shown to care for his interests or his likes or his dislikes or his need for her time and attention as a husband!
For me Gauri has been the most selfish person … of the entire lot… and she deserves no sympathy…
What do u think Nikhila is upto ?
Nikhila's entry back , post the five year leap , is only an obvious indication that she has not given up…on her intentions to get Shiv and Ipshita tied in a wedlock to get what she wants…
Ironically… the Saans and Bahu are both lost in a illusionary world that seem to belive is real. One, thinks her marital life is bliss , when it wasn't , and the other believes that her son is not happy when he is with his life… wow, that what makes a perfect saas babu pair eh?!
Why do u think ipshita is back from london leaving anupam in london ?
Well Ipshita to me seems to have comprised on her marriage to Anupam and is here in India to promote her book and her new venture to start a book store …
Well her entry , by the creatives in the story only would mean , that the growing distance between Shiv and Gauri , emotionally would make shiv look for a shoulder to cry and what better than a childhood friend who has been close to heart . Well Shiv will not stray out of his marriage for he has made up his mind, but the fact that he needs comfort and constant need for comfort … from a friend , his friend Ipshita , would lead Ipshita to believe that he loves her and well… so the triangle starts off again... the creatives seem to be heading the same way though.. and I hope for the sake of the mental health of the viewers, that it wouldn't be illogical , melodramatic twist in the tale… amen to that!
Do u favour shiv as a man ie his want to get gauri into his social circle ? Yes I do, coz he aint asking for the moon , when he is asking his wife to be a part of his life , to give some time , to him, to the relation they share , albeit by accompanying him to parties not ever so often…
Gauri denying him pleasure of being with his wife…a wife he has so willing chosen to stand by… when he had a chance to leave her in the doldrums… a wife , for whom he gave up he so ever wanted….
Destiny we say that they were meant to be… so it is, but taking for granted every blessing is in everyway insulting that which we have been blessed with .
And I think Gauri is doing nothing but taking for granted what she has got, Shiv's love and compassion for her.
Do you if this time shiv slips it will be partially gauri's fault ? It is entirely her fault. She has not only taken for granted what she has got., but also refuses to given her husband an ear when he wishes to talk her. What kind of a self proclaiming perfect partner would sleep on her husband who is venting his heart out…Shame.!
As for Shiv, its only too obvious, as the creatives have shown us that Shiv will not stray and that he has buried the past and is hapy with his life and come to terms with it, but harbours a wish to be more with his wife and time and attention from her , which in no way seems demanding, as Gauri seems to see it!
Finally what do think about this leap ? Was it needed? If it was not there What do u think the story wud have been like ?
A much required leap , for we are able to the true essence of all the characters, be it Ipshita a self confident woman, a talented writer, and respecting woman! , Shiv , the perfect father and husband and a responsible business man, and Gauri , the ignorant , muddle headed, wife, who has no time for her husband and lives in an illusionary world thinking all is hunky dory and refuses to see beyond her own pain, her kids, and her feelings and never beyond the words , "Main" "Meri"… its never "Us" or "Hamaari". And that is to me a shame to her… as shame, to the word wife and mother!
As for the story with out leap, it would have been a pathetic drag… a disguting love triangle and the bird brain Gauri still being blind to all that is happening right in front of her eyes. She is a classic example of she sees all that she wishes to see and nothing else and that is in no way, acceptable , coz it denial of the real and reality is all that matters!
Are u happy with the track rite now ? Yep, and I do not sympathisw with that petty , bird brained woman!
What are ur predictions for next week ? Shiv distancing himself further from Gauri, and Gauri being ignorant and refusing to be with Shiv and worrying sick over her perfectly sane kids…!
