Yesterday's episode was a pressure cooker episode. I could see the pressure building on both Dev and Sona to be exploded on Maha Episode...
Dev: Every second passing to Sona's engagement is chipping away piece by piece of his sanity. He knows that he has lost all rights to Sona, but still can't resist clutching onto every single piece he can find of her.
I felt sorry for him when he held onto Sona's bracelet like a lifeline. Unfortunately, he is left with only crumbs when once he had the entire woman completely devoted to him. The worse thing is he knows that he is the maker of his own destiny.
Today when Sona's engagement invitation arrived, just looking at Sona's name etched with someone else made his eyes go bleak. Watching Sona putting the ring on someone else will definitely push him over the edge.
Sona: The impulsive, angry decision Sona took is also building pressure on her of expectations. Yesterday when the wedding was called off, she was sad to see her parents upset, but at the same time slightly relieved. Today the wedding was back on and in such a gracious manner that even if she wanted, she can't say no. Although she tried to make Ritwik's dad to take the decision to break up the marriage.
Her parents expects her to be happy and in their mind it's marriage to a suitable guy.
Ritwik and his family expects her to move on with them and forget about Dev.
And Sona is just hoping to be left alone...
She is trying to hold everything together with the strength of her will. But her heart is leaking through her eyes.
On the other hand, Bose family is happy and relieved to finally get rid of Dixit family forever. Their pressure is off.
Dixit family is never happy all at the same time. If one is happy, another is definitely upset. So I won't bother with them. They are in a permanent pressure cooker they themselves keep on steam.
One thing I'd mention though. The commitment and promises Sona made to Dev, she is still fulfilling them even though she is getting engaged to someone else. She never broke a single of her promises.
Yesterday she doubted on Dev because of his past behaviour. But she asked him outright, he explained, she understood and that was that. The extent of trust required to believe someone's word after he has previously used his money and power to achieve his goals only comes with true love.
Today when Ritwik blamed Dev, she eagerly tried to clear his name by showing the newspaper article. That was not sufficient proof that Dev didn't do it. But he said he didn't and that was good enough. That insufficient proof was enough for Sona to defend Dev in front of her family and Ritwik. That's commitment and Loyalty.
I wish Dev had shown that level of loyalty to Sona when his mother was pointing fingers at her behaviour.
Does he love her? Yes.
Is he suffering? Yes.
But he is not loyal to her nor as committed because he believed being loyal and committed to Sona means not being loyal and committed to his mom... He is also paying the price of that blind loyalty to his mom which he realized after he completely lost Sona.
I am waiting for Monday to see the pressure cooker blow it's gasket.
I absolutely love Mr. and Mrs. Bose. They remind me of my in-laws (although my in-laws are Canadians). Mr. Bose is super protective dad just like my father-in-law. He didn't relent on Ritwik's dad either until he graciously apologized. No one hurts his baby and gets away with it.
And Mrs. Bose is the mother who understands her kids to the core. I could see in her eyes that she knew the reason for Sona's outburst. I think if anyone can be Dev's ally, it's her because I can bet you, Bijoy Bose won't forget or forgive so easily.
On top of that Ishwari has shared with him example of her generosity. Now if Spoilers are true and Ritwik turns bad, Bijoy Bose will think Ishwari deliberately sent Ritwik's proposal to ruin Sona's life.
And if Ritwik is good, I don't know how Sona will get out of the engagement unless Ritwik let's her go. And watching him today how attached he got to Sona, I doubt he will let her go that easy.
Like I said in my yesterday's post, Ishwari has dug a pretty deep grave for Dev's love.
Another thing, I know I mentioned it yesterday but it still irritated me to see Dev asking his mummy for permission to go to Sona's engagement...
And because that scene pissed me off this famous quote by Hansa from my all time favourite show, Khichdi dedicated to our Dev Babu at Sona's engagement: Hello, how are... Khana kha ke jaana, haw...
That scene kinda took away my earlier sympathy on his pain.
