finally got around to seeing the last episode and just some thoughts:
so how do you handle disappointment? how do you handle shame? it is interesting to see two men of different generations grapple with this issue and how those who surround them dismiss it as just ego. however, for these two men, it is not ego. it is about deeply hurt feelings and their inability to let go of the incident and how it had affected them. they are not able to reflect and look at it from different angles and perspectives. they are unable to hear others view on the same incident. so they are stuck in that time when those events occurred and they still feel the same way when it happened.

so what happens -- they are isolated. for viaan, he is not approachable and even ishaan and jeetu bhai have to think twice. no one wants to bell the cat. with papaG, mamaG thinks he is heartless and he hurts when he says "do you think father's heart is made of stone?". mamaG and papaG's interactions were interesting to watch; I was thinking that they have a skewed power dynamic based on the inital episodes but it is lot more complicated than that. mamaG has a voice, opinion and she does share her thoughts and feelings. she is not scared of papaG nor afraid to tell him what he needs to hear. however, he is unwilling to listen and that creates a distance between the two of them -- something of his own making though he doesn't realize it.
really enjoyed watching the parallels of these two men from different generations. am curious to see if we will see similar scenes edited in the same episode further on as well. basically how two rather empathetic women deal with very stubborn men.
P.S -- but on painting side, I am going to go with papaG's choice over viaan's ghoul. 🤣 see pic and post in heritage thread. 😆
