First and the foremost when they took the car Maya was in driver's seat but Arjun sitting in the right meant he is sitting in deciding the direction of the drive.
And as expected he rampages Maya's plan. First her schedule, then the island. He chooses the island.
And I loved the dialogue. Who is the photographer. Do you know when do you look good. More than you the best photographer knows from which angle you will look good. More than the place you choose , he chooses the places which is going to give best results through the camera.
What is seen with plain eyes and what is seen through the eyes of camera are different. So Arjun chooses the spot. And incidently they both are alone. Maya alone. Arjun alone.
Arjun writes Maya's name along with his family as an extension of his family of mother and brother. They are part of him and she is that extended part. Saanjh is written seperately. That means he needs her, but then she is not part of him.
Next was the high tide that meets from both ends erasing Saanjh. That scene I expected. I expected those tides to meet erasing Saanjh. Because they can meet in real sense only through Saanjh. When they meet she wont be seen, but without her that meet wont happen.
I honestly would want to respectfully disagree with your second statement. I do think Maya will be in control of Arjun, as she said today, Maya "toh Arjun ki zindagi chalaegi" , however he will have the 'power' to influence her decisions. When Maya got in the car, she clearly stated her plans regarding Arjun, she said she would conduct his life. He too got what he wanted in a way when he changed Maya's plans which I feel symbolises that Maya will give Arjun certain freedom of choice, perhaps very limited, but regardless, still there.
I love how you've analysed the photographer dialogue, I do not think it can be written any better 👍🏼.
Yes, I too noticed how he wrote Saanjh's name separately. I think the high tide symbolises the change or improvement in Arjun's life, and Saanjh's name is the first one to be erased because we have observed how she is one person who plans on staying down-to-earth forever, she desires no change in her simple life which does Arjun want in his life.
I don't think anyone so far has brought this up but I noticed how when Arjun wrote Maya's name in the sand, it was not only placed along with his family, but it was also the innermost name, the closest to Arjun. As the tide increases, there is a possibility of Vandana (maa) and Ayan's name getting erased out too, but Maya's name was the farthest from the ocean and the closes to where Arjun lay. I feel this symbolised how she will always be there for/close to him during the changes of life. Okay, I think I over-analysed this a bit too much, I was too attentive and observant today - sorry 😆
