@N, @EC and @A, I use Google translator a lot at work. We deal with many European countries and most of the times, the online information is in their own language. Instead of asking them for translated information, I started using Google.

So, once in a while I use the same Google to send greetings in the language the other speaks. That is all!

I heard that the update has been sent out. Looking forward to read it tonight.

@A, Sorry to hear about your friend's brother. An athlete loosing a limb is a traumatic experience.

Hope he bounces back physically and mentally.

Cheers........

That’s a brilliant idea Raji

I use it a lot for transition too. Or even when we travel to different countries, Google translator is a boon.

Thanks EC!

Ya they are coping up and he is in college but so matured for his age. Whoever comes to visit him, he ends up consoling them!

Happy to see him strong, if you have that willpower, you can overcome any difficulties in life!!

He sounds like such an adorable boy, I am sure life will smile down on him.

What is love without pain !!

This was the thought that was playing on my mind the entire while I was reading the update.

Manohar- loved and lost, not just Aarti but his BFF, Shashi too. He loves his kids and is agonised in return.

Akash- He loves his father, or so and seems to be in pain due to the circumstances. He also loves Payal, and yet, is not at peace with her behaviour.

Khushi- She loved her father and lost him, and she probably almost loved Akash and couldn't have him. She seems to be attracted to Arnav and cant help but think about the pain she will go through when she confronts him.

Payal- She loves Arnav but cant be with him, for reasons unknown. She seems to love someone, but is keeping it a secret, why??

Arnav- My heart goes out to him. He loved his father, and didnt get time with him. He loved his mother and lost her. He cannot see the love Manohar has for him. And in all probability, Khushi's love will break him.

What a fab display of emotions and relationships, N. You and only you could have done justice to this chapter.

I am torn between believing Akash and crucifying Aman, but, I will hold on.

And before I end by comment, here is a song from Arnav to Khushi-

Chapter 4.

N, we have only reached chapter 4 that means we have only touched the tip of the iceberg and this tale is already making us ask for more.

For me the hero of Chapter 4, is undoubtedly, Justice Manohar Kapoor.

From Prologue till chapter 4, you have made us see so many facets of Manohar Kapoor that each time I judged him differently and immediately in the next chapter you made me eat my words.

Manohar- Like Shashi, Manohar came from a simple hardworking family , a principled intelligent man wanting to do the right thing despite being pitted into situations where the difference between good and bad was a very thin line. Unfortunately for him, he was saddled with a rich pampered princess who may have wanted Manohar for his reputation, social standing but unfortunately this must have lost charm for her when she found out that Manohar was a real honest man and not a man out to make wealth in an unscrupulous manner using his fame and intelligence. Both Garima and Priya seem to have some similarities. They never understood or respected the principles that their husbands held dear.

Hi N,

My Thoughts:

1. KHUSHI'S UNDERSTANDING ON -

(a) Arnav: Khushi, as everyone thinks Arnav is living the luxuries life without any motive in his life - Arnav has a motive in life and a wrong one, but the point is Khushi has not seen / understood his motive yet for her to realize her husband at all - At present I see Khushi is true to her relationhip despite not giving her heart to her husband, she knew exactly what Arnav doesn't know (Shyam's enemity towards Arnav) - ARNAV IS SEEING MANO AS HIS ENEMY THAT HE FAILED TO SEE HIS ACTUAL ENEMY HAS REACHED HIM SUCESSFULLY - Glad Khushi saw what Arnav clearly missed to see in the cloud of his revenge!

(b) Aman: I'm not at all amazed to see Khushi finding about Aman and his selfishness already - I see, Aman is one who paved the way for Arnav getting the tag 'womaniser' and has been with, by and behind Arnav for all the wrong paths - I don't know how sure Khushi is about Aman bringing Shyam in Arnav's life, is it Aman (knowingly or unknowingly) who brought Shyam into Arnav's life or Shyam who came into Arnav's life through Aman?

(c) Shyam: Khushi knew about poisonous people in Politics and their share of crime in reaching the position since she is an intern, She has seen the way Manohar and Shyam fought for and against Justice - She as an inkling towards Shyam using Arnav as a pawn against Manohar - If Manohar directly opposed Shyam and his gang (I wonder if Vikram is as important as Shyam here) and defeated them twice then there is a high chance of Shashi was also involved in this war of Justice v. Politics? - SHYAM IS AN ACTUAL POLITICIAN WHO DOES ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING FOR HIS POLITICAL CARRIER - Shyam had rightly caught Arnav in his net to use him as his backup and against Manohar to safeguard himself, though Arnav is obvious to this, Khushi has sniffed it already!

(d) Akash: Khushi and Akash seem to have many things in common - Like, Passion for profession, admiration towards Manohar, humble, hardworking, judgmental (if, I may add) - The way Khushi described her feeling towards Akash as long lost desire confirms Akash will not endanger Arshi relationship - All I think is Khushi has admiration, liking and even desired someone like Akash for her to give safe, warm feeling but to her disappointment, Arnav is all she got who is all not Akash! Its for Khushi to find out how wrong her judgment is!

Therefore, Khushi is half way in both relationship and duties - Khushi could find about Aman's nature and Shyam's intention because of her new found resolve to stay true in her marriage till it last and her sharp mind as an advocate - Khushi, despite guessing the path right will be able to climb because of her wrongful judgments about Arnav and ofcourse retaining her heart despite giving her mind, body and soul to her husband?

In the end, I applaud Khushi for being committed towards her marriage and Arnav but its definitely not enough as her commitment being inadequate will lead her steps blind and unsure!!

2. PAYAL -

Payal is the typical child who suffered due to parent's complicated relationship and loveless marriage (if I may add) hence home is anything sweet home for her - She who had understood her parents complex relationship, their contrasting nature, failed to choose the well-wisher and follower correctly - Her comparison between two elder brothers shows how well her judgment is, both brothers love her for sure but the one who find the faults in her and warns her shows who is more matured and rightly so which is undoubtedly Akash and I can't really blame Arnav as he himself yet to see the real faces of people he trusts and understand the dynamics of life in the first place for him explain Payal!

Who is this mystery boyfriend of Payal? Right now, Arnav has only Aman and Shyam with him - If Payal has taken after her mother, has she really found her love? Why do I feel its Shyam because Aman has been with Arnav for a long time and with Payal thoughts, it seems like she has just found love so it is either Shyam or a new one?!!!!

Though Payal has taken after Priya, hope she does not make the mistake of choosing her love/partner like Priya

Don't ask me why, its just a wild guess - is it Vikram? Because Shyam being the middle aged man not suitable for Payal! So that leaves with Vikram or a new one!!

3. PRIYA -

Priya, born in a wealthy family, cant' think about others and continued to live the life to be an elite - Being an elitist, she who takes a dig at Politics and fell prey to the Politics - Priya's lack of knowledge in Politics, her secured name in society, brought her failed marriage debatable - hence, Priya accepted Manohar to clear her name in public, only a eyewash?

Looks like Priya is head strong, who refuses to bend down to whoever and what may - Her high handedness has already influenced her own daughter and caused the damage - But will she open her eyes to see all these before her folly causes more damages to her family?!

4. AKASH -

Firstly Akash is a mature one as I already told, he seems to be with Manohar and trying his best to control the damages caused/ causing by his sibling against his own father and Kapoor's family - He has his mind right but what about his heart? Did he also suffer like Arnav and Payal from his parent's complex relationship (he should have, either he foregoes it maturely or hides it sadly), but he has turned out to be the consoling son and successor and mainly he is the anchor which holds the Kapoor family together!!

Akash has scored top marks with his introduction by his understandings, thoughts and maturity:)

4. MANOHAR -

We sometimes come across some people who were called as Leader(s) who had stood tall and supported for one cause for others despite losing/ sacrificing their loved ones, likes, wishes and own life!

Manohar life seem like that to me - He who fell prey to fate right from his first marriage, his love, his profession etc., despite the struggle, he stays the same and continue to fight against the unjust!!

He knows that what the wrongdoings he suffers and for the play of fate and his determination to fight for justice, he has to face the bigger battle - With time, Manohar will be known and inspired by many!

He who fights for and gets justice for People, is denied justice in his personal life - Irony!

He is paying the price for his mistakes and more, his guilt towards Arti and Shashi should be and will be washed away by Arnav, Khushi along with Akash!!

5. MYSTERY -

(a) Who all are with Shyam? Who is this Vikram? and who are all now in the mission to destruct Kapoor's family?

(b) Is Shyam directly involved in Shashi's death? But my wild guess is, its some-other person who is connected with Politics responsible for Shashi's death and Manohar is aware of it?

(c) Who is Payal's bf? Is it Shyam's ploy to attack Kapoor's family??

(d) Shyam's decision to elect Arnav as candidate is a ploy to face Priya in Politics?

(e) Million dollar question - What is Akash's take on Khushi's feelings towards him? Is he aware of her feelings at all? If yes, did he sacrifice for Arnav's sake? (No, Don't answer, would love to find out myself;))

P.S. Sorry for the late revert, had been busy with hospital visits!!

Just finished reading the chapter. Wonderful!

It looks like Manohar and Shyam know each other since they were young. May be Manohar got the girl who Shyam was eyeing.

There is a lot of mystery.

I will be back with more thought later.

Cheers........
