There are three point of views shown here.
Samaj (DT, kanak, pandit and the rest of the people)
The so called samaj condemns the widows as cursed and burden. Widows should not be allowed to live a normal life with normal people. Widows are not allowed to talk to anyone with their face up and make eye contact. Widows can not live in the same house as the normal people who still have husbands alive. Widows are supposed to wear white only and can not wear any bright colors. Widows can not eat anything delicious, they have to eat boiled rice every day for the rest of their lives. WHY? just because they are widows, just because their husbands died.
Widows (Dhaani and the ashram ladies)
Then there are the actual widows, who are so battered by these ridiculous customs from this samaj that they themselves have accepted and come to believe that they are supposed to be cursed, that they should always follow these customs. WHY?? because the samaj makes them believe so. If they don't, whatever life they have left remaining after all this, this samaj will make that as miserable as hell also. And if anyone tries to mislead them away from this customs is evil *rakshas* who is trying to misguide them and lead them towards destruction. Or is trying to entrap them so that the samaj can accuse them.
Viplav (the revolution)
Viplav, doesn't know the customs of this samaj, and doesn't even acknowledge this samaj. He simply sees the person in front of him. For him, widows are people just as the rest of world. Therefore, he can have some fun with them. Pranking them, teasing them, but not with the intention to hurt but as play. He realizes that this act of his might hurt the other person, so he also apologizes and says sorry as this was just a prank fun. We are even. For us for samaj this is inappropriate, but for Viplav this is normal, WHY?? because for him there is no difference between him and the widows. He sees them as equal. with equal rights to have fun as he does. He sees them as having equal rights to safety and security and equal right to be helped and protected as him or anybody else. So, he goes out of his way, beyond what the samaj would think appropriate to help a widow out, to save her life. 👏👏
