I am going to say something here that most may not agree with but it is just my thought about it 😊
So, yesterday's episode was supposed to be about Arzoo's heartbreak and it was...she was broken, she sank, and I did feel very, very bad about what happened to her 😔
However, my heart really cried for Sahir 😭 His pain, his suffocation, his loss were so palpable yesterday that I could only 😭 He is the one who is causing all this suffering and he is the one who is suffering the most in this. He is sinking deeper and deeper. He already had enough baggage and now he has taken another one - the worst one - of hurting the true love of his life. If Arzoo's first love remained incomplete, Sahir's true love too remained incomplete...adhoori arzoo for both of them 😭
Now, the question arises, what should Arzoo do now? There has been a lot of discussion about this already and most of us (including me) have pitched for a stronger Arzoo - and rightfully so...but then I ask myself - what is strength about?
Yes, she needs to be strong to let go of Sahir, to rise above the heartbreak, to make something of herself, make her career, stand on her own feet, stop depending on Sahir etc etc etc. This would be the "right" course of action for many...
But then, doesn't love sometimes needs more from us? Doesn't it entail holding on - despite the pain, the heartbreak, the struggle - holding on to something that you know in your heart is worth it. Holding on to someone who you know is worth it in the end? Holding on to something so fast that that you force it to yield, surrender, and save everything (the people and the relationship) in the end? There may be many divergent opinions about this but for Sahir and Arzoo, I would love them, especially Arzoo to hold on to Sahir...especially now...when he is broken and lost. For if she doesn't, who will?
Arzoo has probably not realized Sahir's true worth now - she has only accepted a part of it but she must now THINK, INTERPRET all those actions, gestures, words, and above all, what went unsaid and hold on...She should find out what is amiss, what is so wrong. If she claims to have loved him, she should understand him. She needn't fall over him and she can still maintain her distance but she should not go away, not leave him like this. She should really solve the "mystery" and hold fast. Agreed, it would be tough, extremely tough for her - especially after the molestation thing - perhaps it would be impossible to do so -but then she has loved an extraordinary man (and she must know this at least) - so, her actions should be extraordinary now to make it work.
And if she can't, she was never meant for him - yes, I would go so far to say this...😭
If Arzoo leaves Sahir now, he would be condemned forever to live this life of excruciating loneliness, pain, and suffering - and it is unbearable. Someone must save him, someone must heal him, someone must bring every single agony out of his soul, make him bare his heart and pour it all out so that he can be purged, finally and completely...to make a new beginning...
Love sometimes needs us to go beyond ourselves, go beyond what is the norm, go beyond what "should" be done...Placing someone else above oneself is not easy - even in love - but that is all that makes the difference. The heartbreak, the disillusionment, the humiliation, the trauma - it is so easy to let go after that, but so much tougher to hold on...
If I had a Sahir of my own (wishful thinking ) I would hold on - and I would not care what the world thought of me - because HE would be my world...😳
That is my take on it - whats yours? 😊
