This was the real HS....who candidly admitted that he couldn't help falling for Babita but in trying to make sure there were never any tears in Babita's eyes, he unwittingly brought tears in Mini's.....amazing how much this foreshadowed what was to come.
This was the HS who, even as he admitted he loved Babita, just as honestly told Mini that she was always the more favorite of the two for him.....that she felt like his own daughter.....all his emotions were in front of Mini here to see.....that is the beauty of this scene. Nothing was held back in terms of words or emotions. This was an HS who, despite his own hurt, stepped up to manage and handle the situation, still kept himself and Mini in one team even if he felt he might be losing both of them soon.
If only this kind of balance had been maintained....the journey would have been
Nothing was held back, and even though Minnie didn't say a single word, they both knew they understood each other. Their eyes spoke volumes too, every single moment was genuine. He unwittingly opened the door to the father-daughter bond there himself while preparing both of them for a separation for reasons known only to them. I had never expected him to reveal that she was his favorite but then again it's in keeping with his honest nature. These two have never had to filter out words and emotions when dealing with each other, yet at this moment it's just...
Yes, he stepped up and his way of handling the solution to ensure that Minnie felt no guilt for her anger or possessiveness was just so mind-blowing. How can you not fall in love with these characters and their dilemmas?
The 'tu first hai' line is in itself simple but it represents the gamut of emotions and challenges that both these characters have faced in terms of prioritizing other people in their lives, putting their own selves second. They are so alike it's not even funny.
Yes, this scene foreshadowed what was to come and that's why I sometimes wonder if the current track had been planned all along - it is too systematic to be a fluke. I do believe they would have continued this journey for longer but then the sudden decision to axe the characters made them cut this short.
