What's past is prologue, and the world awaits

Pakhi is comfortable with Veer because:

He has no problem with her living with past memories.

He makes no demands on her.

He tries to put a smile on her face and bring joy in her life.

Their togetherness is helping her forget the pain and move ahead.

He does not expect her to change. In fact he feels apologetic about the adjustments she has to do in order to keep Jiji happy.

She does not expect Veer to change. Pakhi accepts Veer's individuality - both give each other room for growth.

Thus far, both are putting equal effort into the relationship.

They both share the same fundamental values and beliefs.

And so, Pakhi wants to move on from the past.

She accepted Veer's family as her family.

She called up Jiji and invited them over even though Veer would have preferred to visit Jiji in Rajasthan.

Once Jiji arrived what Pakhi realized is that "moving on" is easy. It's staying moved on that's trickier. She is coming face to face with the shackles that were ingrained in her - will she be able to break those barriers and walk free?

Pakhi has taken the first step by inviting Jiji - now she is hesitant to take more, but one way or another she will have to.

Now, she is facing the reality of what it means to really "move on".

Being a wife comes with responsibilities to both the husband and his family.

Can she fulfil the religious rituals as Veer's wife? Is she ready? Has she the strength to cross the mental barrier?

Will she realize that letting go does not mean that Anshuman never existed in her life or that she never cared for him - rather letting go means to live in the present that she chose for herself. More importantly, letting go is realizing that the only person she has control of is herself. What does she want in her life? Does she want to remain Veer's wife? If not, is she willing to let him free?

Will she be able to realize that Anshuman was part of her history but not her destiny?

Pakhi knows family is family they are not made by marriage or adoption documents. Families are made in the heart. If you cut those ties then those people are not your family. If you make those ties, those people are your family. Is she willing to accept Veer as husband and his family as her family?

It has been said "Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today?"

The time has come (or soon will come) for Pakhi to decide.

It has been said "Sometimes the hardest part isn't letting go but rather learning to start over."

Is Pakhi willing to give herself a chance? Girish asked Pakhi to give Veer at least one chance. I would paraphrase Girish and say Pakhi needs to give herself at least one chance.

Pakhi has to realize that God had plans for her that do not involve Anshuman. Happiness is not about being married - whether it be Anshuman or Veer. Happiness is not about pleasing others or caring about the opinion of others. Happiness lies in living in ease and harmony with one's own conscience. What does Pakhi truly want? Does she have the strength and courage to search within and live without?
