Ek kali jo surya ki kirno mei pali,
sundarta ki tasveer,
jiske bhagya mei likha hai ek sutaputra veer
The promo itself declared the consequences but then gave us a teasing hint of the conflict -
Kaha Sutaputra Karn
kaha ek Rajkumari
kaisi hogi inki prem kahani
It is crucial to note that Uruvi is a strong driving force of her own bhagya. She is making it happen. She is, right now, subconsciously, going after the man she desires. She is putting the wheels in motion. It is not left upon the gods to bring a man in her life and then making her slowly realise his worth. She is smitten, irrevocably. At first glance.
The blinding radiance of his Kawach and Kundals, his massive strong frame but lithe graceful demeanour already igniting the flame of want deep inside her and it wont take long before the frenzied passionate fire bursts through her engulfing them both.
We are sailing through her point of view, where Karn occupies the pedestal of her attention and everyone else dims in comparison.
It can already be seen how she is leaning more and more, almost already partial to Karn. She discarded Arjun's importance for the gemstone, berating him righteously for his misconduct yet couldn't help thinking that Karn had come all the way to fulfil her promise of "agli poornima se pehle". In a way if you see, it was a misconduct on Karn's side too, to have entered a room full of young maidens despite the guards stopping him but that is not considered a crime in Uruvi's books.
Uruvi's moon gazing shows her vichlit mann. She cannot help but imagine how the man so unconditionally gave her his word and she is more so restless because it signifies another meeting with him and then her friends point out, it's 10 days.
But her unsettled heart is fitful and she expresses the same through her dance. There is this little iconic moment when the women dancing with her one by one start mimicking the basic masculine traits, prompting Uruvi to select the ones she liked. She disregards them all and shows them herself, starting with arching into a pose of a dhanurdhar.
Then she walks with her head held high and the scene transitions into Karn who is walking just like she described.
It is so heart warming and beautiful to watch a woman besotted, just starting out on the path of becoming her man's sangini. She completely lets go at this moment and describes her own traits - fair, stars at my feet, no one like me, a painter's dream, a poet's imagination, beautiful - and then declares that she wants someone just like her.
It is her perspective that he fits in completely with her, a perspective that many will challenge but in practicality so vivaciously true because he is indeed a celestial being catering to all the traits of beauty and masculinity.
Then the moment arrives, it is like her earnest prayers have been answered. A lover's longing culminating to her beloved appearing right in front of her.
It is this moment that Karn also looks at her. In fact Karn only ever looks at her.
A stree should be given her right to choose a man, or so he believes. It hints such unconditioned acceptance, like he would be completely devoted to the woman who chooses him.
Uruvi laying sights on Karn in this very scene (below) is my personal favourite visual pleasure climax.đł
She instantly believes that he is there to fulfil her promise. Doesn't matter the how but he is here. When Arjun was being tackled by Bhanumati and her father, Uruvi could have intervened on his behalf because afterall he was there for her but when Karn is getting blamed, she reaches out immediately.
Until Bhanumati reads the letter, Uruvi looks at Karn right in his eyes while he lowers his characteristically.
A man who stands so tall and unyielding in front of great powerful men (not to mention she had just imagined the whole ordeal right before he appeared) and bows his head in feminine presence. Uruvi makes sure to drive home the point, it beguiles her completely because she is used to seeing entitled princes looking at women unabashedly so this comes as a surprise to her.
Karn who denies Bhanumati for having committed a crime can't say no to Uruvi's childish allegations. Dand swikar hai. He is already accepting her Dands and Vachans.
The precap is beautiful, lets see how the subsequent events unfold.
Do let me know your thoughts, if you liked it, I can make this a series. I can't seem to talk about the whole episode and other characters because I am so taken up with the passion in these two but I'll try.
