Step 5 ' Stress Busting!
Every mother desires to safeguard her child from the trials of this world, from their first flu to their first fall; all mothers remember that heart rending pull the first time they left them with another, their little hands grasping at yours with that desperate look of 'will I ever see you again.'
Every mother knows that life's trials are not only inevitable but essential part of your child's life. We are like the S.U.N. within that turbulence providing soothing, understanding and nurturing calm.
I agree completely sabah!!!!! Each mothers r like god's angel whom god has send with a duty to protect their child!!!!!
Every mother learns the most appropriate manner to relieve the burden of daily stress; balms such as Touch, Reminder, Alleviation, Diffusion and Distraction.
wow! nice ! lets go through each of the points here!
{Lesson 5 by Mayank. With the advancement of technology comes the degeneration of civilisation. By ignoring our heritage we become estranged from our legacies. Do not look for wisdom in the lifestyles of modern popular personalities but rather seek it in the characters of our ancestors, beginning with our parents, our mothers.}
arre! that's my theory.i think my mom is my idol coz i hv seen with my eyes what she has done or how she has done! I don't need to read story books to find my idol!!!!
As a child when you fall, whether physically or emotionally, there is no balm like the soft caress of a mother's touch, the strength of comfort of those tight hugs, the coolness of her hands upon your burning tear soaked face; rejuvenating your tired soul. As an adult, it is the same'
Incident # 1 ' The stress of schooling!
The opening of this scene is as fantastically invigorating as the calm Shilpa Aunty infuses into tired and fed up Mayank. Note the change in Mayank's demeanour from the beginning to end of Aunty's stress busting!
She soothes away all the accumulated stress through touch. She pulls his ear, thanks him by patting his head, manoeuvres him to take his place for Champi Time! Followed by that lovingly comical shove off the chair and finally that enveloping hug.
I love the manner Mayank slyly observes the coffee, contemplating how and when it found its place within the books he was studying.
Her 'tongue in cheek' humour distracting him away from the tension of his hardback books.
"Coffee beans tera ye ehsaan zindagi bar nahin bhoolenge"
"Tandi hai"
Shilpa Aunty doesn't miss a beat, she is on top form,
"Very good! Dhamaag tandi ho jaiga"
Champi Time! The multi tasking mother that she is, whilst she massages his head, she reminds him that life is beyond books, he distracts his mind away from theories with jokes of imaginary library dates, diffuses his stress by telling him that he has no real competition, and alleviates his icy indignation, 'Mere side ya Nupur's?' melting it into a cool waterfall flowing upon his wearied soul by affirming what his heart already knows'she will always be on his side.
Here i feel shilpa aynty like all mother truly understand even a mayank sharma can be stressed out before the exam . that chumpy thing.mayank will never admit , but i think he love that..coz he .need to hv motherly touch to gain his confidence!....& the hug was conveying the msg I m always ur side........every child seek this. Shlpa aunty was just conveying it his maaynk yet another time.
Incident # 2 ' The stress of anxiety
She understands the root cause of his anxiety and diffuses the escalating countdown to an imminent meltdown. I love the use of the 'prop'; the newspaper as a subtle distracting reminder that we are but one soul living through our troubles amongst five billion other souls and their troubles; that despite our insistence upon dwelling upon our woes they are comparatively not even news worthy.
She proffers another softer viewpoint which declares a truce and hopes for a friendly and peaceful future.
here shilpa aunty's mentioning nupur each time was just a try to show mayank his real reason of anxiety, coz cure can only be done after identifying the disease na! she gave him clue .that may be whats bothering him is that mayank & nupur not friends but his heart once accepted her as a friend....& that is why he keep thinking abt her.........mayank needed that clue to seek the routes of his stress !
Again the next morning, the use of that 'prop'.
"Kya hua?"
"Kal ki news se pooch raha hai, kya hua?"
"Are! utt kar dekh, nahi news bhi ban chuki hai."
Reminding him that as the world moves on from its sorrows and dilemmas so should he.
wow! i never think of it like that. if u c all the mothers of the world wants their child to wake up early in the morning!May be one underlined reason for it is that in this fast moving world they just don't want their child to start the race for a better tomorrow late & let other ppl leave them behind.
Choosing to ignore all of Shilpa's Aunty's distracting jokes and diffusing props, Mayank seeks calm from the balm of touch; resting his head upon her shoulder he energizes himself in her motherly aura.
Incident # 3 ' The stress of exams.
She nurtures his weariness through alleviating some of his burdens. She reminds Mayank that he is not alone, that whatever trial besieges him, she is standing there beside him, supporting him, through the simple gesture of waking up early to make their breakfast. As we all know, as well as Mayank, she too only slept after his head hit his pillow.
Oh!shipa aunty's breakfast dhamki was really alarming for maaynk na!😆 but i guess he always get the msg dhe tried to say that she is ready t support him all the way through!!!!! But i can't help but smile the way he said ."got it" here.😆such a kiddo!!!!!!😳
Why is it that no one can resist nudging Mayank's nose?.....😆.. i guess it his luck ....
She enters the room, going through a checklist of things to be done, remaking his bed after his rushing around. The son nurtured by the 'sun' is now full of life and the 'Sharma Smart Alec Sarcasms.'
Incident # 4 - The stress of 'friendships'
She nurtures his resilience by reminding him the routes we pursue are as important as the results. That our competitors are not our enemies; and that our enemies are not our competitors.
Shilpa Aunty is the queen of tongue-in-cheek whose style causes her to become the recipient's beloved. She diffuses the tension between Mayank and Nupur by treating her like a guest, reinforcing the above point to Mayank, that despite the inherent rivalry in her challenge, she isn't his rival but peer if not friend. "Kitni pyaari ladki hai, hai na?"
Again that comical shove of her obstacle, Mayank, to her would be ally, Nupur.
I love the scene where they both beg her to stay as if both laying claim to her. 😃.me too.as if both want her to be there in their side in the battle!!!! even though nupur is not her own child ,she managed to makwe her feel like that with warmth na!
Classic Shilpa Aunty sense of humour, I will let the ingenuity of the words speak for themselves'
"Aap dono shahid bhool raiha ho ke mein abbhi tak yahin karr raha ho"
"Toh, karr rai kyu ho, beh to, baatein karro, aap na ghar samjo" 😆 😆 😆 loved it
The ironic movements within her enchanting melody are just sublime. Another aspect I love in this mother ' son relationship is that as soon as you are wiping the tears from laughing with them, you are overwhelmed by tears at their loving bond.
Aunty's golden advice which I have always tried to live my life by; only ever compete with yourself.
"Love you'" embarrassed at his own folly, unable to resist that irrepressible love overflowing throughout his being, Mayank is then reminded why he will forever be his mummy's little boy.
Just when you think your heart has drank in enough; Shilpa Aunty pre-emptive mimic,
"Maa, bhalo ko haath nahin laga na!" leaves your hidden thirst quenched.
Nupur is once again the recipient of Shilpa Aunty's nurturing of Mayank. She becomes the overburdened 'victim' by the surprise of unexpected new fruits within the same season.
oh! that is what i call true shipa aunty philosophy..spread love to all..even to ur enemy.......she supported nupur with all her heart out , even though she knew she is competitor of her son.& taught mayank also this valuable lesson that it is not a battle ground....so he should just let his anger & jealousy keep aside form this! & be himself!!!!
Incident # 5 ' The stress of overburdening burden
She understands that extra curriculum activities for Mayank are another reason to beat the books; she tries to distract him with the discords of his life.
I love the manner in which Shilpa Aunty grasps hold of the opportunity for Mayank to leave the sanctuary of his private library and thrusts him towards the 'ajeeb' voiced girls! Even when he circles back and taints his one dimensional intent over the opportunity, Shilpa Aunty searches for another distraction to pre occupy his thoughts. Mission succeeded, her proof being she is granted access to all areas and proved beyond a doubt by the fact he wakes up in his bed and not upon his desk.
OMG! I just remembered i didn't used to watch MJHT at that time.but this scene i hv watched while switching channels & after watching it i decided to follow this show! & started watching it from new year party!!!!!.oh! u brought back such sweet memory..i loved shipa aunty just then & there coz i feel she is a super cool mom.she understand the need of socializing ,having friends in the life of her child.& encourage him too!!!!!
