Post- Watch Analysis
Comic moment #1: "Mein aur Natash ek duhje ke liye book ho jukhe hai!!" When Arjun said this, I started laughing... for some reaond i found this line extremely funny. Totally Punji like "book ho jukhe hai"....Yeh marriage ya koi train trip? Roka ya berth reservation? Hopefully that thought brought a smile to your face as it did mine.
Comic moment #2: DK: "Arjun, Kya hua? What's wrong with you?" Again I found this hilarious...ironic...Khud Gham de kar pooch tha hai "kya hua?".... Do you really not know DK?
|Beauty and the Beast|
One day she asks to return to her father for awhile and the now somewhat gentled beast lets her. Alas, it costs him great grief to part from her... but he does it trusting that she will return to him as promised... She gets waylaid... by the time she returns her beast is dying..her heart is broken and she cries.. as her tears roll down her cheek and splash gently onto the dying beast... her love in the form of her tears transforms the Beast into the Prince again....
Something similar happened tonight... our Beast transformed into back into an Insaan again today with that single tear. Whose tear? Not his, but hers...What she could not get him to do with words and logic (question his flawed beliefs), she got him to with a tear. And as surely as he broke her today... she broke him with the tear – her silent scream of pain. Afterwards – she leaves and he breaks/falls apart for the both of them because no pain haunts you more than the ones you give those you love. Penance will come later along with regret...but, for now there is just pain in every denial of pain, every unwilling kick, thump, or tear.
@ Ria – your analysis was spot on, so I won't rehash it here. But, tell u where i disagreed with u: Arjun was not playing with the cell phone to distract himself... he was doing what we all do in distress... phoning his bestfriend...the one he can no longer call or share his heartache with because he has broken both of them today....
What's R + G + B = W? Physics (I got to pure science afterall! Anjana's Physic teacher hangs head in shame)... R + G + B = W is the physics of the color white. Three primary colors (Red + Green + Blue) make up white or rather the right frequency of those colors make up white light. Its an amazing color this white? Nah? So, underestimated yet symbolic:
White – the non-color color... the color of innocence.. of purity... of hope... of death.. .of peace...
Between today and yesterday, we saw this color in all its glory. Innocence when Arohi was racing in the rain...Purity of heart in the elevator scene... hope when she gave him her heart to him ...death when he annihilated that love with his cruel words...and ultimately Peace...solace that only crying (alone silently) can bring when you are dying...
