Hi all,😊
Before I proceed with my current understanding and analysis, I would like to mention a few factual inconsistencies in the show. And I found them very disturbing, because it shows how the quality is falling.
1. Sonakshi had entered Dev's room looking for him. She sat there, cried and unveiled her heart in front of of her photo (and I loved this scene❤️, I was crying too). Then Mamaji comes and Sonakshi is suddenly in the guestroom downstairs.
2. In the coffee scene, Dev tells Sonakshi about a blunt knife that his mom carried when they returned from his night tuition. Sonakshi replies that he never told her this before. Whereas in Sonakshi's accident scenes (refer Episode - 44), he had told this to her when telling her stories of his life, and the knife, then mentioned, was sharp.
3. The prenup, one of the most important reasons of Devakshi's separation, is mentioned not even once post leap. It seems to have vanished nowhere.
There must be more.. but these three disappointed me a lot.
Well, I now proceed with my analysis.
Even in the pre-leap time, Sona was a girl who would never express her true feelings to Dev. Sona had realized her love for Dev much earlier than him, yet he did not have a clue about her feelings until he confessed. But we as audience knew what was going on inside her heart because she shared her innermost feelings with her cousin Elina.
In post-leap too, Dev has no clue about Sona's innermost feelings. She has successfully masked them in front of him behind her indifference. And Sona doesn't seem to share them with anyone else unlike pre-leap Sona, and much like pre-leap Dev. Jatin may be an understanding and dependable best friend for Sona, but I don't think she shared her innermost hurt with him.
In fact, Sona notably broke down for the first time in front of the audience. She must have broken down millions of times with hurt at Dev's bad behavior behind her mask, where no one could reach her. Her father, Bijoy, also believes in this facade. Dev's accusations this time broke her down more than she could bear, and hence she cried (also the conversation with Elina too was a catalyst).
I wish Dev could see her in this state to realize the consequences of his impulsive outbursts (I guess, Dev may had if Shaheer was available). I remember the time when an angry Dev had broken Sona's cell phone and Elina had told him how her cousin had cried all night. Even when he was not in love with her, he could not imagine this strong girl breaking down to this extent because of him. When Dev had gifted her a cellphone, it symbolized that Dev opening a channel of communication to Sona.
I found Sona's tears falling on Dev's photograph very symbolic. It seemed that Sona's pains would reach out to Dev and he would feel her pain that he caused her. Dev is so important to Sonakshi that only he could hurt her this much, and vice versa. I hope to witness a scene where Dev learns on returning to IN that Sona had broken down and cried after he went away, and he feels the pain he caused her. (They have already fought enough...*sigh*)
It is interesting how Saurabh wants the same things as Bijoy, yet they are always at loggerheads (resort scenes). The Vicky-Elena scene on Friday has confused me a little regarding how they would turn out in future story-line.
Also, I hope the most awaited Khatri-Ishwari mystery doesn't turn out like Radha Rani's snake plan.
EDIT:
Another thing I found interesting in the Friday's episode, is a part of Elina-Sona conversation.
Sona tells Elina that Dev didn't understand any other relationship other than black or white. Seven years ago, when Dev was walking with Sona to her house (before accident, after Sona had seen GKB taking money from Ishwari's purse) Dev had said it is much simpler in business than in family to maintain good relations, to which Sona had replied I get your point but I couldn't handle the situation because everything in my family is black and white. Jo hai saamne hai...
This is another instance how Dev has imbibed Sona in him, observing Sona through her lens of black and white; consequently taking her at face value and reacting accordingly. I am not saying how he accused Sona of having an affair with Jatin is right, but he is not in a frame of mind to think calmly (that doesn't justify him either)... Sona on the other hand has imbibed Dev in her. She has turned workaholic like him, relationships are no longer black and white, now she can even lie to safeguard her family (the very same thing she has been furious with when Dev did this) and many more things she can even realize. She is piling up her emotions and they are taking a toll on her while Dev is venting them out, but his impulsive outbusrts are too taking a toll on both of them. Dev too has imbibed Sona into him more than he can realize...
I would post more later (And I have to catch-up few pages of last weeks's thread too😆..).
Thanks for reading! 😊
