The most shocking thing for me was Dutta pointedly giving the example of Nakku, "Isse kehte hain apno ki jaan ki parwa," in front of Baaji Rao of ALL people!? Baaji, who'd give his life up without hesitating for a second, not only for Dutta, but even Dutta's mother, sisters, wife, and wife's extended family too? Such a low blow, because Dutta full well knows how Baaji dotes on him and strives to do as much as he can for him and his family. Watching Dutta say that to Baaji as a third person, it felt like being turned on and stranded by your own best friend...I can't imagine how Baaji stands it, and then even pleads and begs in front of Dutta.
And telling Baaji that if he's unable to protect them all, he should say it now so that Dutta can protect the family like he used to before...'phir mujhe dhande mein teri zaroorat nahi hai!'....Dutta, how could you!? Have you forgotten that Baaji was the one who brought you to the dhanda, that he was with you when you protected the family before as well?
For someone like Baaji whose breath catches for Dutta and his smiles and happinesses begin and end with him...how sad it is to see him being taken for granted.
