Jyoti, supremely good post 👏and you have asked the right question on Rudra's motives for his anger. ⭐️Your question in the heading of your post has made me think.
Actually CVs dint exactly give the reason of his anger and has left it open for interpretation deliberately 😉
And this is my answer:
I think Rudra is still in the testing stage of his relationship with Paro. He is not yet sure whether he likes her, how much he likes her, whether he has become dependent on her for his happiness etc etc. See he has had such questions in his mind before regarding all his relationships - with his father, with his mother, with everyone in his near circle ... he is still having these same questions in his mind about Paro also ...
Exactly .. he is actually not sure of his relationship status with Paro .. during Jaipur trip he enjoyed her company as if he was in a fairytale land but that phone call of his boss brings him to reality and suddenly he remembers how he married her for revenge because he almost lost his job because of her
... but the one and only thing he has always been sure of is his love for his job. There he has had no doubts that he is in the right place for all the right reasons and his heart is in his job.
yess .. I guess thats the only place where he fully accepts his love and loyalty towards his job ..
I think now it doesn't sit well with him at all that his boss and boss's wife etc are all getting more friendly and protective of Paro and his job is a thing that is dependent on paro doing the right things ...getting his job back for him is now in her power and not because of the things he does right in his job. His job is being given to him not for his service recognition but for the quality of his relationship with paro!
yeah and that relationship is something he is yet to accept and because he got his job back for this same relationship which he considers fake in his mind , its affecting him more
I think he wants desperately not to mix up his marriage with his job. He is not comfortable that his boss has grown close to paro and that she has started pleading with the boss to give his job back etc. It is like one loop has formed between the boss, his wife and Paro in which Rudra is a bystander, a spectator and they are all deciding his fate for him.
I agree ... Paro is considered a part of Rudra's family now where his boss and his wife r fond of her and its all getting tangled into complex circle of relationships where emotions r attached .. this is scaring him I guess .. he dont want to fall into the trap of these relationships once again
I wouldn't say it is entirely a question of ego alone. It could be the discomfort of his not knowing what relationship he has with Paro, and yet despite this uncertainty she is entering the part of his life that used to be his one and only certainty. She is throwing his mind and heart upside down and now her entry into his job sphere threatens more than his peace of mind.
Yes he is used to lead a loner's life .. so suddenly this responsibility of a wife plus the wife given the credit for saving her husband's job , all this is sort of weird for him to accept when he himself is not sure of his relationship status with Paro
Not only is Paro getting pro-active on the job front, the boss is also getting too close to paro, asking about her on the phone etc etc. And here, Paro is taking his job so seriously that she puts his uniform in his place for the puja.
I guess the boss and everyone thinks they r leading a happy married life .. they dont even know how the whole marriage happened ... I guess its a sort of guilt too from Rudra's side as he knows how he foricbly did the marriage in drunk state
Jyoti, it is my feeling that Paro should not get into his job spehere and she should remove herself from it. How would we feel if our spouses started directly hitting it off with our workmates and bosses and we are outside of that loop?
Mansi from Paro's POV , I feel she thinks she is guilty for Rudra loosing his job because of her public confession and that one-leg stand ... so I think thats the only reason she is so desperate to go and beg to all .. otherwise she never really interfered in his job .. I hope from here on she dont interfere in it ..
Other than this point, your symbolism of the fourth vachan is fabulous. That Prasad eating and the anticipation of her tending for him is making me all excited.
I guess she will nurse him now and once he is all fine , she might decide to leave to fulfill his wish of going away from his life but mayb this time he will stop her 😳
