" Kabhi kabhi maafi ek khote sikkay ki tarah hoti hai. Na toh woh dene waale ke kisee kaam ki hoti hai, aur na lenne waale ke."
- Darakshande Badr
" Sometimes, forgiveness is like a damaged coin. It is of no use. Neither for the one giving it, nor for the one asking for it."
If MJ was to come today and kneel at Maya's feet and beg for forgiveness for all his sins against her, his pleas, tears, guilt would be useless for Maya because MJ cannot turn back time and undo his karma. Similarly, the forgiveness that Maya was asking for from a dying Rishi today and Rudra ( tomorrow and in future in a way ) has no soul or meaning. She cannot undo what she has done and she cannot return Rishi back to his loved ones.
Maya is TRAPPED IN A TIME AND TRAUMA CAPSULE. Only her exterior has changed , and a shadow side of MJ has been added to her ; on the inside she is still that tortured, traumatized girl who has taken the baton of imparting self-designed justice which is actually not her job. She is a shadow of the past . This woman is not in present or in touch with reality of her soul sickness, emotional sickness and what she has become. She is trying to UNDO what happened to her by DOING it all to the Roys. She has not even realized that today , she is a shadow of MJ as far as her mental mechanisms and actions are concerned. The irony is that Maya is NO MAYAJAAL... She herself is caught in the Mayajaal she has created - THE ILLUSION OF JUSTICE and God Complex. Maya doesn't create illusions - she herself is caught in the illusion of her own created dark self.
Maya knows what she has done to Rish is outright devilry and there is no turning back from here ; that's why she keeps telling herself that MJ has killed Rish, and not her. Because she is trying to suffocate the voice of her conscience.
But certain laws of nature cannot be transgressed. You don't get to play God , ever. Maya is trying to play a self-proclaimed grim reaper of justice and justifying it too. I said it yesterday and I will say it again - You don't get away challenging the universe. Universe balances everything. If Maya thinks that she is going to get away with playing Avengers League... it will not happen.. just like she is MJ's nemesis... well, even her nemesis will come... and we all know where this is headed. None of us is indestructible. Human? Defeatable. And it is clearly visible where Maya's 'CHINK IN THE ARMOUR'is.
Anyway, goodbye, Rish. You deserved a full , bright and contented life which was cut short by your blind fixation with an illusion. Hope justice prevails and you are avenged.
P.S- Is Ananya delusional?
P.P.S - Rishi's death was on the cards from day 1. He was always meant to die early in the show as indicated time and again in the starting episodes. So, i guess the writers and channel stuck to that. Dark indeed.
Thanks for reading. ❤️
