So many dreams broke. So many trusts broke.
Some of those trusts were never real, that is another thing.
Dev says it with a blank face, You cannot be a mother.
Sonakshi breaks down.đ
Inspite of Sonakshi's lack of emotions for herself, minimal dialogues highlighting how she must be feeling, I could empathize with her. Could understand why and how this behaviour was coming from. .to some extent.
Sonakshi has been brought up in an ideal family with an ideal set set of values. Where you have to be strong, have to be sensible. Her parents hold extreme pride in saying that their daughter is strong, not an 'abla naari'. Like Dev has been brought up to quick fix all the issues, Sonakshi has been brought up to be the strong one.
Sonakshi,inspite of knowing the biggest truth of her life, breaks down for a minute but gathers herself up again to think about her family. Why? Because she is strong.
Or she wants to be strong.
She asks Dev to stay away the moment he tries to console her, sits down back on the floor and then gets up to run in hernown personal space. She needed to gather strength soon. That was the moment where Dev was totally out of her space. Sonakshi built walls around her and Dev could sense the distance, so could we.
This is why we felt something was missing when Dev tried to console her. The words 'Are you okay?' And what followed were more of a strangers words to someone he just sees breaking down. It wasn't the Dev that was extremely scared to let Sonakshi know the truth. So much that he couldn't function properly before marriage.
He tries to form a connection with her emotional self by talking about how infertility did not matter to him, when he failed he quickly jumped on to his mom's well-being.
Here, Sonakshi got an anchor to attach her anxiety to. Ishwari's trust. She was quite vocal about how Dev broke trust and now there is no point of worrying about Ish and her bond.
I wonder if she believes in that? I don't think Sonakshi will take too much of time to rebuild that trust with Dev, but he is distant for sure. In today's episode, Dev had to play the role of a spectator more than a supporter.
Sonakshi doesn't encourage lies and wants to immediately speak the truth to Ish. With her badly timed words, she is able to make Ishwari believe that she was the one who plotted all this and manipulated Dev to lie to his mother.
Another trust broken.
Nothing could be worse than getting to know a heartbreaking truth indirectly. The impact is a million times more severe. Ishwari's trust on sona was anyway built on a wet base. It had to fall apart the moment extreme pressure was put on it.
Ishwari now thinks SONAKSHI is totally 'unfit' to be Dev's life partner, for her well knit family and is a plot-master to deviate Dev from his goodness.
Woah! We are back to square one then, or worse maybe.
What will follow in the episode next is Maa vs Patni. Ishwari just wants to bring back Dev to the original track. Towards her. To show that Mothers affect you more than your wife does.
Ye toh humein pehle se pata haiđ¤
I hope Sonakshi gets out of the facade of being strong and ideal soon, she needs to let go and have a proper outlet of emotions. It will all keep building up otherwise.
