In fact, extremely well played
Mr. Shravan Malhotra !
LOVED the "revenge" sojourn today
👏👏👏
The ASTUTE lawyer in Shravan can take a bow
Oxford can be proud of its alumnus
What a way to play it out!
An AMAZINGLY well thought through tit for tat!
A special mention for Namik Paul
He was SPLENDID today!
👏👏👏
So what was it that stood out for me...
Obviously the facts and figures
So Friends, here goes...
My take!
1. Shravan questioned the basic IDENTITY of his and Suman's equation today, 'cos that was the SCAR that he was left with 10 years back. Sumo was his WORLD; the same Sumo is reduced to a mere stranger, Suman, today!
2. Shravan believes that Sumo (ab)used their Friendship and his undying Loyalty towards her. The important thing to understand here is that in Shravan's mind, even their Friendship was completely one-sided. He is therefore justified in believing that if 10 years back, a simple equation like Friendship was never granted a "legitimate" status by Sumo, with the subsequent heart-break that followed, what is it that has drastically changed in these 10 years, except maybe the passage of time??
3. LOVED the absolutely PERTINENT questions that Shravan asked Suman...if she was really sorry and truly repentant, what was it then that had stopped Suman from connecting with Shravan to make amends in these 10 long years? Why should Shravan believe that her efforts now are genuine and heart-felt??
4. And last but not the least...my most FAVOURITE part...the piece that I so, so LOVED! Shravan's choice of adjectives when he chose to describe himself and the 'lucrative' reasons for Suman's new-found "Friendship". Please note, that he only stated 'successful' and 'rich', but NOT good-looking! This despite the basic premise of the accusations being hurled by Shravan at Suman, was attributed by him, to the effect of the METAMORPHOSIS of the nerdy Shravan! "Successful" and "Rich" are inconsequential non-entities here...Shravan was always rich; it was also a given that he would definitely be successful (his intellect is for a reason)...BUT the real TRANSFORMATION has been in Shravan's physicality, with Sumo spurning him 10 years back, being the catalyst for the same!
DESPITE this, Shravan did NOT mention 'good-looking'!
Absolutely BRILLIANT!!
CVs, what a MASTERSTROKE indeed!!
👏👏👏
What does this then, signify to me?
a) Shravan's CORE! The guy has only changed on the surface...he has only gotten more worldly wise, BUT, deep within, he is still the Shravan of yore...with a great VALUE SYSTEM intact! Had Shravan uttered "good-looking", in that very moment, he would have trivialized everything...about himself and his IDENTITY! He would with that one utterance, have proven that he truly was and never will be worthy of Sumo's Friendship! A heart-felt THANK YOU, Shravan Malhotra, for NOT letting us down, and walking away with your head held high...both literally and figuratively!
b) Second, the other IMPORTANT piece...this was no Insult...Suman's CORE has been RATTLED! And, in my mind, I think an IMPACT of this nature was necessary...the reasons being manifold! Suman, to me, has some serious INTROSPECTION to do! She needs to question herself at many levels, find her own answers...and, in the midst of all this soul searching, she needs to ask herself the all important question...Shravan may not have spelt it out today, but does the supremely handsome & drop dead good-looking Shravan have anything to do with the transformation of Sumo's own feelings...from that of Friendship to Love!
The answer to this is obviously in the NEGATIVE, but, Sumo needs to find this answer and search within...
Shravan and Sumo have had a PAST
The TRAUMATIC memories of this past desperately need CLOSURE
Today was a LANDMARK step towards this
Tomorrow ShraMan start on a Clean Slate
Towards
Their JOURNEY
Called
"Ek Duje Ke Vaaste"
Cudos to you, Team EDKV
