Finally making a thread in this forum. I hope you all will enjoy it. After watching two episodes I was thinking what should I name the thread as lot of things came to my mind including a poetry which I will add in the end. Finally I have decided I will name the thread colors of life. Because PV is all about colors and how you perceive them. It's your experience that makes you link a color to something postiive or negative. Like color red stands for both war and love.
So the first thing I want to tell about Prithvi and Mrinal is that they both have the same color. They both are fiercely independant,but the way the show their independance is where the difference come from.
Mrinal takes her own decisions, but the fact is that she imposes her decision on others.She doesnt take time to convince others or prove to others why she is taking that decision. Because she has taken decisions under tough circumstances and has succeeded. Tailap is th king, he is a father, but for Mrinal he is still her kid brother. In a way time has stopped for Mrinal at the point she saw her family butchered by Malwa king.In her eyes is always that day and in her mind is always that revenge. We might feel Tailap's wife is mean. I would say she is to some extend right in her place as a wife and mother. No wife will tolerate, if a sister control's her husband using a remote and a mother can never feel happy if another woman takes the decision of her child's marriage without consulting her. Mrinal doesnt realize this hostility that is building around her which can undo her later. In her quest for revenge she fails to observe the present while planning for future with the data of past. And she gets her first jolt in the form of prince of Malwa Prithvi Vallabh. She could never think the king of Malwa would have had a child and that child would have grown up now.
Coming to Prithvi. His style is democratic. He will not cross your line or force his opinion on you. But dont try to terrify him with your opinion. He knows what he is doing. The way he gave proof in the sabha was a beauty. Yes when it comes to self defense you will forget rules. When someone is coming to attack you, will you run to give information or fight it out. In all probability you will fight it out. In other words Prithvi uses power of defense and not for attack. He is a man of feeling, instincts. A man who wants the eyes for his statue. The eyes which he feels even if it has hatred, he will chose those eyes only.
In it lies the contrast of Mrinal and Prithvi. Mrinal is fighthing based on what she has seen. Is that the truth. Has Malwa really betrayed her kingdom or Malwa attacked but it was known to someone in the kingdom and the traitor is actually inside. Mrinal has not questioned any of these as it was not needed. She trusted what she saw.
Prithvi is going to trust his feelings and whatever he sees maybe in complete contrast to his feelings, but he is going to go for that girl who played the veena buried deep in the mask of a woman who holds the sword. Because the color he is going to see in her will be different from what the world sees. And it is going to cost him dear. What with his brother wanting the kingdom and he has his cronies for the same.
Will Mrinal be able to understand the colors Prithvi is trying to show. Will Prithvi be able to bring back the Mrinal who played the Veena. Hopefully we will get answers to the questions during the course of the show. For my analysis these two questions will be the moot point and as long as I can feel the script can answer these questions I will analyze.
Now coming to some other points. Eyes of Mrinal frighten you, they have power about them and control about them. Eyes of Prithvi they draw you out, they have a magic about them that soothes your soul and give you peace and you want to be with this person.
It is going to be the union of fire and water, it is going to be the union of storm and tree and where there is one victor and one loser. But should that be always. Can both win and can both lose or can both survive.
Now the closing poem for Prithvi
Ram Kahun ya Shyam
Dheeraj tho Ram jaisi, natkat ho shyam jaise
Dhairy tho Ram ka, Leela tho Shyam ki
Prem tho Ram Ka, Mohan Veena tho Shyam ki
Ram Kahun tuje ya Shyam.
