Bappa! What an endless night. This never ending darkness! This can't be real. I'm having a nightmare.I'm in my room at PN. It'll be morning soon. I'll fully wake up when Nakku, as usual, will send up my morning tea. Nakku!Why do I suddenly feel so restless. Is she alright? No.She won't be. I have to get to her. What state has she got herself to? I remember her every time I breathe. She was with me for nine long months.Why did I let those precious nine months simply wash away in futile anger? They could have been the most blissful moments of my life. Our life. What I would not give to get back every second of the time that faded away.Its so late now. Will I see her again? I want to say so much to her. I want to ask her so many questions. Deva, the words I used for her, the pain I caused her, I hurt her so much.That blood on her forhead. I did that. To my Nakku. Can u ever forgive me, Nakku? Why was I so angry? For Seema? For ten long years she's all I've thought about. I became a man I don't recognize anymore. I hurt the most precious person in my life.Yet here she is now. But I don't feel anything more than a passing contempt for her. How is this possible? I spent ten years hating her. I should be wanting to hurt her, strangle her, rage at her.But I don't want to bother. All I think of now is my love,Nakusha. Give me one chance,Bappa. That one chance.I will never ever let her down again.
What is happening? Why have they stopped the car? Is she upto some trick? Oh!This damn blindness. Someone has entered the car.No.Wait!They are carrying someone in. I ask Seema about it. Her friend. Another dancer? No. She has a missing husband. Oh! My heart just took a leap. What is happening to me?
Strange.The longing for Nakku has intensified a hundred times since this stranger entered the car.What is it about her that brings Nakku so much to mind? Her quiet fragrance. Yes.That's it. She smells like Nakku.Okie! Now I'm going crazy. Only my Nakku can smell like that. I was hearing her voices now I'm smelling her too.
Oh Nakku Dearest!
We are close yet so far, We are the crossroads of life
Where will this way lead us to now
Enemy eyes searching for us everywhere
Eyes don't recognize our own world
Where will this way lead us to now
There is so much darkness in the heart
You were my beacon but where are you, now?
We are close yet so far, We are the crossroads of life
Where will this way lead us to now
NAKKU! Is that you? Who touched me now? Nakku? No.This can't be.I'm going crazy. But it was her.I know it was her.I know her touch. Wait! Don't draw her hand away, I want to feel it some more. What has happened to me? Oh, Nakku what has happened to us? Who are you, stranger?
All he did was sit in the front seat of a car with deep sadness in his heart.Yet see what a whirlwind tour of emotions he has taken us on. I'm so overwhelmed.His eyes spoke volumes.I can't process it all. I'm so unequipped to catch it all.So much was escaping me.What I could hold on to I put it down here.But its so measly.I can't imagine what all escaped me. His sorrow was piercing the heart so much. And all the time the love of his life, the light of his dark world was inches away from him.Why do you suffer so, sweetheart? What can be done to make everything alright? May the force be with you. Love U Dutta, Kasam Se!
A word to the Creatives: You have spent an entire year in emphasizing the evil & vitriol residing in Kala. The emphasis was so humongous we were made to watch only Kala & her machinations for weeks at end. We get the point. Please do not make it now a blind Dutta's turn to face horrendous torture at her hands just to make that point again. Strange though it may sound some like me draw a lot of courage, strength & steadfastness from Dutta though he is not real. You told me he is all powerful, he is intelligent, he strikes terror in the hearts of bad people and I believed you. He is my hero now & I want him to vanquish all the enemies that poisoned his life & the lives of his loved ones. The fact that this is a fight between a man & a woman renders it unequal immediately.That the woman happens to be the daughter of another woman who raised Dutta further weakens his cause. There is no way in this world Dutta will attack a woman that too his Aayi Saab's daughter. The other enemy is the husband of his sister. D would gladly give up his life rather than watch his sister become a widow. Then what will be the point of all this brutality?
I want to see the Dutta you have been promising for a year that will come blazing in to save his loved ones. Please do not think the torture of a visually disabled hero would bring in audiences in hordes. It will not. Its easier switching to another channel than you think. That's what the audiences will do if you do not portray their hero at his best. Not many have real hero in their lives so they gather in front of their TV sets to watch one on screen. Do not let them down. This is a culmination point of earth shattering sequences happening in the life of our most loved,favourite man.
My best mate on this forum recently made a point that it is highly disrespectful to a master chef if customers constantly peek into his kitchen & tell him how to make his master piece. I totally agree with her. No one has got that right. But as a patron who only eats delicacies served up by the chef I might be bestowed with the privilege of letting the chef know what I want to be served with.
