and here I'm posting my pov.........
First of all, Both Gunji and Sam are right in terms of intentions and goals..................but Sam is at fault in terms of actions and how to reach his goal...............and so is Gunji........
In terms of goals we all know how much they love each other and how they always work for the other's happiness............
But the actions this time were not correct from both sides................
Sam is not fearing that GUNJI will be away from him..............as much as he fears that WORK will pull her away from him slowly.......slowly.....
Do you remember Morena...!!
there could be their first seperation after being lovers.................He neither get hyper nor acted in wrong way.............he just accepted her decision of staying and was ready to only have her promises...........though a person after confession, in particular, want to spend as much time as possible with his love..............but he was very calm''coz he appreciate her reason''
But this time he got hyper, ya true worst circumestances helped in making him like that, and couldn't accept her distance.................why this time his reaction is different......?!!
I think her envolvement in a WORK that what, unconciously, is making him acting like that.............coz it felt for him like time is repeating itself..................the first time was his Dad and now is Gunji..............
There is no parent who doesn't love his child...............and Mr Shergil is like that............but it seems that his periority in life was WORK.............and his efforts to impose his IDENTITY via collecting as much money as he can..............and in this process, his work pulled him away from his son slowly.....slowly.....
Guys''''.didn't you notice that Sam is the least one among our 4 leads who pays attention to future work and career'?!!!'''..Actually he's the only one who is not interested at all'''.
Is it because he is rich'?!!.............maybe as one of reasons but sure not the only''..!!
Coz anyone would have a dream of career'''even rich people''.especially he loves to have others attention''he could spoke to others about his dreams of being famous as BB player, guitarist, or even artist'''.but that never happen'''.Why'.?!!
I guess due to his fears of WORK commitment'''he loves BB, music''''but never want to be committed to them as careers'''.
See, when you don't have good enough parents''..you, mostly, either become like them not good enough in your life and following their perspective of life ''''or you try your best to avoid being like them and create your own perspective of life'''..Sam chose the second choice'''.he suffered from being lonely and lack of strong relations, communication, understanding, emotions'''..all due to his dad's periority of work over him'''
So this built like a hate of WORK and it's commitment inside him''.and for him, the priority is for relations and communication over the work''..he was imposing this idea in his head''..coz he doesn't want to end up like his dad and make his loved ones suffer'''.That's why Sam is the best in MJHT when it comes to communication, showing emotions and protecting relations''.(as per my pov)''.and that's why he doesn't want to be involved or even think about work''coz he fears that work will pull him slowly to become like his father at the end'''..
Work is his very serious phobia in addition to marriage.....
And now, time is repeating itself, with Gunji being in his dad's place''''ya, he encouraged her to this thing'''..coz he knows his chashmash and fully trust her love'''and thought that work can't pull her away coz he see her different from his dad'''but his fears of work a raised again'''.why..?!!
Coz he noticed a change in Gunji's behavior'''..she's not understanding him ENOUGH the way she used to''..she is not listening to him the way she used to'''.that work is pulling her away'..slowly''..slowly''''..just like his dad''..and it's not a change in quantity that made him think that''.the change in quality is what brought his old fears once again''.
After their hug in canteen, they never had a REAL communication/conversation between them''..though important incidents happened'''(reporter, locked in store)'''..She though that she understand him and no need for spending sometime to have a talk'''..only nice letter can make everything fine'''''.and here is her fault''''
She underestimated his issues.....
Actually, she couldn't understand him completely'''.100%..........for a normal person with no issues in his life''...still there are sometimes when he needs someone to hear him''..even if the other can do nothing for him''..coz he just want to make his problems/fears out'''he is not looking for solution or action'''.he only wants someone to listen''..someone to understand'''
This was the case of Sam at that time'''.but Gunji failed to get it''.and her lovely words couldn't make it completely''
See, Sam knows that his Dad (and Mum) loves him.................otherwise, he won't tell Gunji that he miss his parents.............sure there were times, which are rare, when Mr Shergil did say I love you to his son..........but we all know that words only are not enough.........and they may lose their meanings if were not followed and ensured by actions...........
And that's why Gunji's beautiful wards didn't work'''coz at that time, in particular, he needed actions''.coz his previous experience with "words not followed by actions" was not good''..specially when work is involved''..he needed her to show him, more than tell him, that she is with him''..and work will not pull her away from him''..like what happened with his dad'''
She could show him by have conversation with him'''.communicate''.he needed this thing that was missed in his dad's case''.thus he can ensure she wont end up like his dad''''but she just sent him a letter'''do you know what's the feeling when a person you love who resides just 1klm far from you prefer to send you a letter that meeting you and see your face'.
She told him via letter to look for his identity'''don't you think, guys, he may had a similar situation before''..don't you think his dad whenever he wanted to encourage Sam to study he used to send a servant to tell Sam that..!!.......instead of telling him himself he used message''and so did Gunji''
I know they are mad in each other'''..that's why I said their goals/intentions are correct but their actions and how they try to achieve their goals were wrong''..
As for his anger''''.I think this is expected''..when he acted like that not because his character is less than Gunji's, Mayu's''or because he is immature''no'!!.............
The circumstances made him be like that when his fears comes to him''''.he feels to show anger that others can notice his issues'''.that's how he was grown in a divorced home'''
I remember reading a statistic about the effects of divorce'''.it stated that most children from divorced parents becomes violent in varying degrees''..and thanks to cvs that they could implement real issues in a very good way''..
The immature guys, act in a manner that they believe it is correct and can't realize they are wrong by themselves''.they need outside force to make them realize that''..Sam realized his action was wrong by himself '..(bath scene, car scene)'''.but he get angry again not because he thought this the correct thing to do'''.he did that unintentionally''because the way he was grown will definitely has it's impact on him''..
I can understand that coz I'm somehow like him''.I get angry quickly''I always hated that thing in me and tried my best to change it coz whenever I get angry I may do something stupid''.now I'm not getting angry as much as I used to''but still there are times when I show my anger''.It happens to me even though I realize, as a matured person, it shouldn't''.
He is not bad'''.he is not immature''..the environment he came from, unconsciously, plant some fears, thoughts, acts, reacts that he would need time and understanding''..actually a lot of time and understanding to get rid of them''.he has some psychological issues but he's not bad''..he is emotional but he's not immature''
For me, I always considered him as a patient who suffers from some problems caused by his family''and Gunji is his cure and doctor'''..and that's why I'm seeing some fault in her side''coz when a patient still suffer, you won't go to that patient instead you'll question the doctor''..why couldn't you cure him and did you did your best to cure him..........but if patient get cured, we appreciate the doctor effort......did you get what I meant?!!
She was lucky enough to have a good example of life balance through her father''..and that's why I'm expecting a lot from her side''
I know ver long essay.......but I couldn't make it shorter..........I hope I did make sense.....
