Dooriyaan nazadikiyaan

Ban gayi ajab ittifaaq hai
DevDaan are not aware that they have run into each other as adults.
Their parting as kids was superbly enacted by the two kids. Thank you CVs for the treat. The two kids are so adorable - I am going to miss them extremely. But the show mustt move on. If Devanshi had any fear in leaving Jwalapuri they were totally wiped out when Vardaan told her to pick up Sakshi and move down the river. Vardaan assured her he would always be with her in her thoughts and that she too would similarly be near him. That promise gave her the courage to pick her little sister and begin a new life, penniless, and friendless.
Now coming to the young adults. I have written about Sakshi and Devanshi elsewhere so I will concentrate on Vardaan.
I am delighted in CVs choice of Vardaan. The actor does reminds me of the young Vardaan (thank you CVs for maintaining the continuity). We only got a sneak peek of him - but I look forward to see him grow in his role! I enjoyed the way he was reminiscing about Devanshi and was holding on to the chain. His self talk about hanging about the river in the hope that Devanshi would visit the spot where they parted made total sense and his muted expression was so like the young Vardaan! Best of all I loved his loyalty towards Devanshi and his determination in sabotaging the "Vad Divas" celebrations were noteworthy.
The adult Vardaan and Devanshi have shown the same resilience of character and survivor mentality that they displayed as kids. Now that itefaq has brought about their dooriyaan to nazdikiyaan - I hope they soon recognize each other (but you and I know this never happens in TV land), support each other and get to plotting their come back!
Jodha Akbar
