So he's left Pagal Niwas. Good for him as he needs to gather all his wit that he has suppressed for many years to deal with his personal trauma and that of Nakusha as well. He owes that much to her for all that the poor mite has done for him. He needs to clear his mind of all that is substantially very destructive for him in his house to start afresh. He has to find ways and means to deal with his despair.
I still saw a ray of hope today for despite the incomplete physical annihilation of everything which would remind him of Nakusha, he could not bring himself to harm her physically. I was apprehensive about him pushing Naku in a storeroom as reported but thank God he did not stoop to that level. Our hearts bleed for him but this is needed to purge him and Nakusha of all the demons and elements of insanity, insalubriousness surrounding this disjointed couple (up to now) as despite all the love and "understanding" that seemed to unite them, it did not have the equations of a real couple as their worlds was so different. Dutta embraced darkness to fight against betrayal, whilst Nakusha, struggled all her life to find a ray of light in a dark and murky world.
The question now is how will the "LTL CV" handle the trauma of our lovebirds and to some extent that of Baaji and AS (today I felt that she is after all not the BH. We will have to look elsewhere) over the next few weeks.
LTL for most of us has been a beacon in terms of the development and evolution of each character and the different tracks. They have offered us a vision of love/hatred/ relationships in a way only a handful of shows on Indian TV, have been able to portray/depict. And that was lauded. We hated and yet accepted all the aberrations (such as the unnecessary dragfests or their many bloopers).
It will be interesting to see how they deal with the latest separation of TASHA. Will they be able to maintain the same quality, trepidation that kept us all on edge? Will they maintain the same intent to present something different in their portrayal of Dutta as a larger than life character (we will not accept any desecration of someone we all love in a virtual life), nor will we accept the demeaning of Nakusha's valiant attitude in the face of abject misery, be it material or emotional. We had a glimpse of her attempt at a start of her journey for her personal redemption and that of her love in front of BAPPA already today and that bodes well. Please keep the good effort and do not go down the gratuitous path of Ekta's show. PLEASE__________________Have mercy on us.
I am also very curious as to the approach they adopt in re-building the bridge between Nakusha and Dutta, Dutta and Baaji, Dutta and AS. Many among us viewers and devoted fans watching the show have established and almost unhealthy connection with a screen character (Dutta), screen couple (TASHA) and are feeling as much as they have depicted it on TV, their sense of emotional bereavement and are anxious to see how they will re-connect. Indeed they have to overcome so many hurdles together or separately to become one in the real sense. That is not, necessarily, the practical aspects of a union of a man and woman but rather that of two individuals who would finally have the possibility of meeting at the same level, in love, in day to day life and rationalise their links with all those who surround them to be able to savour the sanctity of marriage, of the union of two souls.
Dutta's inability to separate love in its most cerebral form from the earthy love and affection he should have shown and given to Nakusha long ago has brought him in this desperate and sad state today. The brevity of their relationship as a couple in spite of them being married (which was probably a demand of the LTL script to move the story forward), the nefarious influence of the outside world which became an irrepressible barrier between two human beings in love (I refer to their respective families and their unreasonable demands) had buried any chances of happiness. Add to that the cunning and malicious to the point of being exquisite evil nature of Kala, they did not stand a chance. They were lambs waiting to be slaughtered on the altar of misguided notions of values and affection for their families. Dutta, Nakusha (to a lesser extent) and may be Baaji, somehow became the explosive components of an innocent mnage a trois where they could not really gauge the perspective of their relationships. Dutta could not voice his burning wish to really make Naku completely his. Nakusha could not function because of the barriers that she had erected around her in the form of the soot (the bane of her life and that of us poor viewers). And Baaji did not know when to dissociate himself from Dutta and offer him the space and chance to live his life with Nakusha. Self-protection, delusional shield… call it whatever but today it became the reason of his downfall and the temporary death (regrettably) of his lifelong friendship for the only person he has ever loved and cared for.
Dutta will have to fight the raging demons within that have flawed his personality, the unknown and potentially much more harmful enemies lurking around him (unfortunately members of his own "sacred family". He will have to find the strength to break away from all and come out his fantasy world where everyone was "masoom"; he will have to be able to differentiate between good and evil (that will still take a long time as he is too good (the main reason for his downfall). More, importantly, he will have to understand, analyse a girl (Nakusha) who despite her bravura efforts at comprehending and dealing with the harsh philosophies of different aspects of life, still, remains and illiterate girl who never really had the chance to evolve beyond the squalid physical and emotional environment she hailed from.😭😭😭
Good luck CV's. We expect a lot from you. Good luck Dutta/Mishal because we adore you, Courage Nakusha because we admire your resilience in the face of so much despair, Hope Baaji as friendship needs to be treasured, Strength of character AS as it is only a mother who can help a child come off a precipice, and Beware Kala/Leela/Roops/ and shifty Suds 😡😡😡as deceit and treachery are normally short-lived.
And now the wait starts for all of us. And to Dutta Patil, ⭐️⭐️⭐️please do not stay away for too long. We know that you have to come back to Nakusha on screen, but we need to see you as well. Enjoy your short break! You deserve a rest after your relentless display of histrionics 👏👏👏for so many months now.
God bless😊
