IKRS Tuesday 14th June 2016 ep 277 My Take Fighting off the choke of poison ivy
Through behaviour humans convey meaning of what and how they feel or think to others around them. The nature of our behaviour although obvious to the one at the receiving end maybe subject to debate as it may lack sincerity of what and how we really think and feel. This can be deemed as a masked performance where what seems clashes with what is!Thus external mannerisms, can be a contrived and manipulated performance. Through actions in words and deeds we win, lose or defeat others around us.The episode begins with the wicked witch's performance before her arch rival the queen of the flower fairies.The presentation uses the power of words, exaggerated body language wherein the witch aims to tamper with the complete persona of her captured foe the flower queen.
Kamini like the gardeners pest, a creeping bramble , a strangling poison ivy winds itself around the delicate red rose Dhani with the view to throttle her very existence. Lord Shiva watches in silence as the poisoned creeper Kamini winds itself around the flower queen who is hell bent to survive the strangulation of this killer weed Kamini. A wild growth that is pulled out of its roots and dismissed as useless! for no home is decorated with weeds..its flowers that are destined to bring joy to gardens, homes, lives! Flowers are used to pay obeisance to the gods and weeds are hurled into the waste incinerators!
Dhani through sheer resilience pulls off the poisoned ivy creeper around her neck and hurls it out of lord Shiva's temple. Wounded by the rash of the poison ivy Dhani tarries a while on holy ground. In this sanctuary, open to her, she mulls over the tactics her foe used upon her. The witch used contrary , divergent ,and opposing words in her attack. There was a difference between what was being said and meant. Dhani supports her head against the calming temple column as she recalls ,the lies that were used by the wicked witch to justify her actions five years ago. Dhani mulls over in her mind,that she sees now clearly that every explanation that Kamini gave her was a mockery! shambles!. Dhani reasons, why does it matter to kamini what she thinks of her? whether, Kamini collected a broken Viplav after the bomb incident? Whether Viplav's family forced her to marry Viplav? gave him lifelong support ? that she Kamini , never wanted to to marry him? as she knew Viplav he loved her and her alone ? how easily she spewed poison mixed with honey , Dhani recalls, but it all goes over Dhani's head, she will not overcome by the witch's justification, for it matters not the least bit to Dhani! The scales of this witch's mock friendship now fall for Dhani ,as she recalls how the witch turned around and pinned the blame on her for own misdeed of stealing one's husband! the words why had Dhani not informed the family she was alive? Dhani , retorts in her mind , inform ?and put her and her unborn baby's life at risk again?? no! muses Dhani she had seen enough , she could put pieces together , Viplav's family was out to get her and whatever family she had left!dhani had to flee! Which she did!..dhani recalls the witch's behaviour ,how she brought in Viplav's doomed persona, a broken man, with crashed dreams! a living dead! They were words used to paint images of Viplav to break Dhani! but Dhani swallows her tears and silently responds, but Dhani shall not be over come! as gone are the days when she viewed the world through rose tinted glass .Now she sees through the transparency of a trickster , a cheat like the wicked witch! Dhani had winced but she saw through how in all her words and actions the witch had sought to rake and poke Dhani's wounds! but Dhani shall not be over come! Dhani recalls, with some power how she had attempted to walk away. Kamini was mighty frustrated at Dhani's indifference to her award winning performance! How Dhani by her silence had made her lose the plot! How the witch had pulled dhani back, stopped her from leaving !so she could continue to have sadistic pleasure from torturing Dhani again. But Dhani shall not overcome by the witch's baits, she will ensure Viplav and her meet today tonight!.. how this pest lies through her teeth, stops at nothing ! waste of space! Waste of life , Dhani pities Kamini as she recalls her third rated , many times repetitive performance... flutters and gasps to save her life from Dhani's silent galvanized life of truthful righteous .Dhani, now pities her and her pathetic words to impress upon Dhani the bond between her and Viplav , a male child!. Dhani takes a deep breath as Lord Shiva revives, restores, and refreshes Dhani's soul. She does now sit and in some way celebrate the fact that she now survives the word and action lethal attack that Kamini waged on her. Dhani wards off Kamini mocking her , blaming her , deluding her and from further making a fool out of her! Dhani rejoices with tears in her eyes, she may be seen in kaminis eyes as a loser! But in her own eyes Dhani is a winner as she can now see that she is free from Kamini controlling her naivety ,innocence and goodness! Dhani dusts her hands off the itching poision ivy.Her lord gives her the antidote by giving Dhani the spiritual eyes and divine wisdom to ward off her foe..
But how does one fight off the beloved ?The trusted one ? Who causes her festering pain even after so many years. Lord Shiva allows her to grieve upon his holy ground. Dhani stands in Shiv's temple cries out the bitterness buried in her heart.she came on holy ground lookingfor her long lost demon king ,her love! Her husband, but instead she got news that he now belongs legally to another.. And a child too now cements his marriage to the witch . This revelation , literally throws Dhani off her emotional and physical balance! The colour of her Ishq is continued parting! Her legs give way, once again, she sits in the mandir leans against the column to regain her strength . To console herself she recalls asking him how does he know they'll have a daughter? He had replied with conviction ,because he just knows they will have daughter first! Dhani cries , as she recalls her mother's words this is all god's plan .. How blood calls to its own blood. He as vidha's father has rights over her! Vidha too has the right to receive her father's love! Dhani body shakes with tremendous pressure from the dilemma she faces now! The witch has throwna spanner in the works! Yes my beloved , weeps Dhani she had vowed to stand by him..Accepted him in her life against all odds five years ago! Loved him , but he only gave her separation.. Dhani yet again hears the witch's voice , what is he repeating Viplav that he regrets marrying Dhani.? Memories conjure up negatively in Dhani one more time! Her demon king's head on the posion ivy witch s shoulder. Dhani struggles to catch her breath, as questions spring up before her and weaken her, what was she doing now ??Looking for a long lost love her demon king? Lost Dhani sits at the entrance of the temple .lord Shiva looks across at her the emotionally wounded Dhani. Is her Lord Shiv going to fight her battle against the principalities of evil? Dhani cries , bitterly after lighting the fire of picking up the past..seems fate has yet again, written down separation from Viplav in the lines of her palm.Lord Shiva's damru beats! brings before Dhani the reason why she needs to continue to dance the dance of life! With greater vibrancy than she did before! Vidha arrives, asks her mother ,shall we go and meet demon uncle now??
Masked mannerism but to show decorum respect and high esteem. Parsiya pays Dhani's house a courtesy call. Bearing gifts to show good will he hopes to make a bit of room n Dhani' heart. Dulari receives him , advices him to find a decent girl who can keeps a check on him wasting money. Dhani arrives home visibly distraught. Vidha needs love which she gets starightawy from Parsiya , he remarks on her smart outfit. Dhani is embittered it was for Viplav she dressed their daughter so. But fate has written separation from him in the lines of her hand. Vidha narrates they went to see demon uncle but her mum just brought her home straight away. Parsiya , diverts Dhani Vidha's disappointment and presents them with gifts. A maharastharain sari for Dhani,she looks at it some bitterly. There was a time white colur came into her life, then colors came, now they too seem to be lost some where? She muses morosely . Parsiya see Vidha is being a nuisance for her mother ,thus he takes her out to give Dhani a break.
Its confession time for Dhani.. she reveals her meeting with Kamini at the temple . broken hearted she offloads Kamini story. Dulari reminds Dhani she never trusted the woman. Always in the past when she got involved her and Viplav would end up separated. Dulari though is pleased that Dhani now can see the trickster woman's true colurs..regards the Viplav and her son ..Dulari reckons that possibly is another lie! Dulari as usual manages to gather her daughter from going to pieces . But Dhani does lose it she demands why is god testing her giving more trails? Giving happiness with one hand and taking it away with the other .In anger she screamsfor what mistake are the gods punishing her?? She hurls off a sewing basket which knocks off a glass ,that crashes on the floor! Symbolically Dhani treads on it in rage , it pierces into her sole like the tribulations of her life! Her mother pulls out the piece of glass from her child's foot! A reminder that all may leave Dhani but her mother will always be beside her! The question of why the righteous are punished is raised up here.
Thick as thieves, Tripurari wants to know the outcome of the witches meeting with the queen of the flowers? Her answer is in today's world honesty and goodness is a thing of the past they are extinct! however she does have great faith in the power of goodness.. Dhani is a good woman with her lofty ideals and virtues! Believes in sacrificing herself in the name of her principles ! Dhani will never separate a father from his son.. his rightful heir! .. is this so??
Dhani sits at the sewing machine .. an equipment meant to solder and act as a joinery of parts and pieces . To create a whole piece of garment... Kamini voice's that her and Viplav have a son too.. a part, a piece, of their relationship that gives their marriage a the complete form. Her thoughts are interrupted by Deepak and Richa who come and invite them for the family after wedding reception. Deepak gives Dhani happinesss by telling her he has been accepted by all in Richa's family. lots of people will be there.. Dhani assumes Viplav and Kamini will be there too
Dulari asks Dhani would she attend the function? Dhani goes with a fighting glint in her eyes ,yes for sure she will! all her life she has been concerned with others its about time she thought about her daughters need! all the more, because its imperative to find out the truth about Viplav!
Dhani gets ready for the party. Vidha watches her lying on her side onthe bed, propped up by her elbow..just like Viplav.. just like Viplav she comments maa you look so pretty in this sari..Dhani recalls how Viplav once said after she finished dressing up wow Dhani you look gorgeous simply stunning now after she finshes dressing up Vidha the part of Viplav and her love presses against her with same adoration as her father used to. Parsiya arrives suddenly , dressed in a suit and is stunned into silence by Dhani s beauty. Spontaneously he says it's hard to believe some can look soo mindblowing in a colour like black. He compliments the flower fairy too the apple of his eyes.
At the party Viplav arrives in a white suit his so called wife in tow dressed like a christmas tree. As usual her husband is disengaged , disinterested in her !they are handed masks!so thinks Viplav a masquerade .. he needs it to conceal his distaste for the tow who hangs on to him!viplav offers his greetings to the host mrs.kaushik... the girl in the black sari sails in with her escort. Dhani eyes look for her demon king and there he was dressed in white! the colour opposite to hers.. does he still love the colour white? Her heart misses a beat! She looks at his profile ,serious ,firm jaw , unsmiling .dhani... feels a range of emotions ,a yearning to run to him and cliing to his chest...she braces herself.. he is not hers to take now.. the colour of her Ishq is to watch her god from far and offer her devotion..
the question is will they meet? sounds like a dream ... sorry folks its long again.. will have to do something... hamlet53 15.6.16
