Orphans! Society has us believing that Orphans are those who are without parents and/or relations. We instinctively are compassionate about them but there is another sort of orphan where you have a parent, bunch of relatives, where you shower all your love yet you cannot call them your own!
Poor Chandni! More than Advay, she is the true orphan. Yes, Advay lost his parents in a tragic way. He lost his younger brother but he still had his grandmother who worries for his health, happiness and future. He has Murli who is loyal to him, takes care of him. But what about Chandni? A pawn to be used whenever you wanted? A girl who has a father but who remains inaccessible as God. A mother sorry sorry A stepmother who is selling her off for money without even losing sleep over it.
As Indrani said quite clearly, she has fed and clothed Chandni from the age of six months and now she has to pay off for all the food and shelter, she has to show profits as payment.
Indrani sends the innocent lamb to slaughter, knowing fully well about PP's intention of raping her *wat kind of woman is she?* but she had not reckoned about Dev? Dev who is Chandni's pillar of strength, Dev her warrior. Advay is pissed off at what he thinks to be Chandni's shocking betrayal but he cannot stop himself from rushing to her help whenever she is in trouble.
One tormented whisper "Dev from a panic stricken Chandni who has lost her marbles. Advay who is sulking in Granny's house rushes to the hotel where PP's was going to do his Kaand. Advay rescues her and also comes to know few shocking details about her past Will his behavior change after knowing about it or will he use it to hurt Chandni further?
Advay has saved Chandni from PP Baba this time buh will he be able to save Chandni everytime especially when Mumsie is the one who seems to be intent on getting her step-daughter bedded before wedding.
I am loving the nani lady. I also liked the fact that Nani's q's are running through Advay's mind especially when Moonlight blabbers about her kidnapping but the big question is will Advay believe what Moonlight is saying or think this is another one of her fantastic tales like the one she told about his mom being the dayan.
Thank God, the CV's resolved the puzzle of how Mahanta Didi was flying in air? Simple but plausible and acceptable as well.
