Gina, beautiful post ... let me try to put my thoughts together on yesterday's episode ... cos it seemed to be a milestone of sorts ...
The first milestone was last week on Nupur's birthday, when Gunjan finally broke down and accepted that Nupur is not gonna come back ...
Yesterday, another milestone of sorts (may be clearer today, cos cv's usually do this sort of thing on Fridays, keeping us hanging for the next week) ... a change in Samrat's attitude ... like you said, till now, he was all about getting her back in his life, his faith in their love, HIS love, and their being together ... but last night, he saw her pain, and saw the reason she has been avoiding him, the depth of her loss, her loneliness ... and he realised that it went much beyond love and it would take far more to get her back ...
She has lost a part of herself ... she is not the same person any more ... and for the first time, he saw beyond getting her back for himself ... to the bigger issue of getting her back for herself ... reviving the old Gunjan/Chashmish ... bringing the smile back on her face, genuinely helping her to get over the biggest loss in her life ...
AND if that means letting her go ... he will do that as well ... last night was all about doing what Gunjan wants or needs ... the selfless love that Gunjan has always felt for him, he started to feel that for her ... till now, his love was possessive, he wanted her and that was it ... now he just wants her to recover, he wants the smile back on her face, he wants her to heal and he's not going to think beyond that ...
But actually, that is the biggest step ... unless she heals, he can never be happy, and until they both heal, they ... as in together, Sajan ... don't have a chance ... so this is the first step ...
And yes, it's going to be big, I think ... not about Samrat getting Gunjan back to him ... but getting her back, full stop. Where she goes from there, where they go from there will be the next step ...
like Sonali, I'm positive ... but I'm also a little apprehensive ... it requires a helluva mature Sam, which we saw a glimpse of last night, and whom I loved ... hope it stays the same ...
