Over the past couple of weeks, there has been major drama in ARVI's lives with the open proclaimation of Arjun's love for Purvi as we all know. But, for me, something is still missing. Arjun has declared to one and all about his love and his commitment to Purvi. It was absolutely marvellous...Yes, we have also seen Purvi's commitment to him in that beautiful rain scene.
My one greivance is, that so far, there is no direct conversation between Archana and Purvi about Purvi's feelings for Arjun. Even Sulochana was wise enough to ask Purvi if she loved Arjun and Purvi mustered enough courage to admit to her. How come Archana hasnt asked her about it yet even once? For the kind of bond between them, i would expect this conversation/confrontation to happen immediately after Arjun's declaration. After all this, how come Archana hasnt reflected back on Purvi's anguish after the engagement, her depression later on. She herself had tried to question Purvi a few times back then. Why is it that she is not thinking about it now? Forget what Arjun's feelings are. Granted, Archana has a right to question his feelings (although done in an unacceptable way) given the circumstances. But, why is she not even asking Purvi about what she feels? I dont think that it is the case that Archana doesnt care about Purvi. so, why this reluctance? Is it because she is afraid to listen to what Purvi has to say? Is it because then, she will have to choose between the two daughters? Doesnt Purvi deserve this from her mother? I am still taken aback by Archana's behavior in this regard.
I don't think Purvi with all her dedication to Aai, will ever speak up about her feelings to Archana by herself. Quite a few times, it happens in real life too. It falls on the parent to have a direct confrontation. Children tend to avoid these situations unless needed.
All this still niggles my mind. For me, this is still an incomplete circle, given the bond between Archana and Purvi..
