The last few episodes have been really difficult on the fandom, but despite the drastic changes, the creators have still found time to include important symbolism.
Paro has truly become a titli now. Just like a titli flies, Paro's innocent, pure soul has flown into the atmosphere to watch over Dhruv and Rudra- like a titli, she had a short, but fulfilling, happy life, filled with her flower (Dhruv).
They say that when people die, their soul remains. Paintings are the gateway to the soul of the subject, and the painting Rudra has truly represents who Paro is. Additionally, the painting has lots of colors, just like a titli. Coincidence? I think not.
"I almost wish we were butterflies and liv'd but three summer days - three such days with you I could fill with more delight than fifty common years could ever contain."

This quote truly embodies who Paro was as a person. Just like a titli, she lived her short life with so much love.
But if Paro was the butterfly, Rudra was the caterpillar. Although he didn't shine and sparkle like a star the way Paro did, Rudra grew into a beautiful butterfly after her death. Until she was there, she was his butterfly, nourishing and cherishing him like a caterpillar is nourished. Then, when she died, the caterpillar was strong enough to blossom into a titli, that now flies around and is tied together with the flower in this story.
The flower is Dhruv, who binds Paro's soul and Rudra the butterfly together. As a flower, Dhruv supports Rudra as Paro would have, giving him food and adding color to his life. The flower's stem into the ground keeps Rudra and Dhruv tied to Paro, who is now the moist soil that nourishes them from six feet under, but his face is turned towards the sky and the future- just like a flower.
Now it is time to see who Myrah will be in this story. Maybe she will be the bee that comes and turns Rudra into a hummingbird, and they, will together fly. Paro's soil will continue to nourish the flower from below, but Myrah will have motherly love of a bee that will pollinate and nourish the flower from above as well, allowing him to blossom into a fruit.
I haven't done one of these in a while, so I'm a little rusty. Please do not bash!
