Hello everyone! I have been a silent reader on this forum for sometime but one performance in today's episode really compelled me to make a post here- Neela. Mama bear was in full protection mode today and she made a call for HER daughter's future and she WILL NOT take any kind of jibes from ANYONE questioning her. Now you may question, she forced avni to marry neil. In any other circumstances I would not be onboard with this. But today she gave avni's life a direction that does not start and end at vengeance and aman and ayesha and ashish and neela and nanno and dayavanti. It ends with Avni having a semi-functional family with a husband she respects, who loves her, a FIL who accepted her at her worst when her own father left her at her best and a bickering MIL that everyone has and hopefully a family to follow. she gave avni a shot at normal.
Noone in the world knows Avni as well as Neela does. She is right, she singlehandedly raised avni for the longest time. perhaps that is why Neela alone recognized how close avni came to becoming the person she hates the most- Dayavanti. Neela not only recognizes Neil's love for avni but she also recognized that neil would stop avni from pulling the trigger. just as she did. aman was simply an excuse, neela recognized the need to save her daughter's life from this one track revenge. the famous saying from the scarlet letter- revenge destroys both the victim and the seeker. she did this in an attempt to salvage some of her daughter's life from destruction. so mama bear, hats off to you- she stopped aman from leaving, saved riya from both dhoka and a loveless marriage, saved neil from his own self-righteousness and even saved the khanna family from an A-class dhoka in the process of saving her daughter. I completely agree that not all women need marriage to validate their lives, but revenge cannot be the validation of someones life either. avni was a happy girl with ordinary happy dreams, who died under the pressures of her parents' inability to be good parents (yes i include both ashish and ayesha here- one abandoned her and the other pretty much was her child rather than the other way around) and ofcourse dayavanti's terror. neela tried to salvage some of that girl.
also really really enjoyed her confrontation scene with nanno. she absolutely should not and im glad she didnt, take any criticism of her parenting and her motherhood. neela has more right on avni's life than anyone else and ONLY SHE can decide whats best for HER daughter. nanno is still an idealist. she hasnt experienced avni growing up with a bullet wound on her chest since 11 years old. she only knew her grandchild who was good and sweet and innocent. this reminds me of a conversation between neela and nanno previously where the latter asserts that this is avni's age to love and not live for revenge and neela asserts that avni isnt an ordinary girl of her age. neela knows what her daughter is- her strengths and weaknesses and ONLY she has the right to take this decision as not only avni's mother but also her saarthi in this kurukshetra.
i LOVED how she quickly shut neil down- kutneeti was going on all around, its just that neela won where the rest see their failure. im very much excited to see a continuation of this jamai raja and saas relationship. neil could not meet her eyes once in denying what she was saying and indeed it is so obvious that he DOES protect avni. if he was as mad as he seemed, avni's truth would come on his lips the second he saw her under the ghunghat. but he didnt say a word. and neela just knew that- if that was not a mother's intuition then i dont know what is.
