"Log tumhe is liye pyar nahi karte hai kyun ki tum special ho ... balki tum special ho kyun ki duniya mein kuch log tumse beintehaa pyar karte hai ... sometimes despite the way you are."
- Sharmila Tagore's wake up speech to Deepika Padukone in Break Ke Baad.
Somehow, I thought of these lines when I saw Maya today ; manipulating her mother, endangering her, emotionally wrecking Rudra and using reverse psychology to break him down so that he leaves everything and comes running to her.
And she is confident that all this will happen. You know why? Because she knows Nandini loves her , because she knows Rudra loves her and is crazy about her. This is how we take advantage of people we love, we mentally and emotionally abuse them . Why? Because we know they are totally in love with us and will never let us down.
Isn't that what MJ has based his control on? Antara loves him, Diya loves him, Amir is loyal to him, his mother loved him, Rishi loved him, Rudra has reconciled with him. That is the reason he has gotten away with everything that he has done in his life!
EMOTIONAL NARCISSISM.
Like Maya's alter ego said the other day; how different is Maya from MJ? Isn't she a shadow of the same man who destroyed her?
What if MJ would have seen Nandini? What if Rajeev would have been unable to protect Nandini? What if something happened to Rajeev? What would Maya do then? What if killing Rudra doesn't give her any peace? What if she realizes that she loves him after he is dead? What if Rudra finds out who she is and hates her with his life and she cannot deal with it?
And what does Maya think? God has different laws of karma operating for her? That the darkness she has committed will not come to bite her? Babe, you sit on that high horse of Mighty Maya because there are people who have your back. Your mother is your maternal support, Rajeev is your man friday, Rudra is your emotional pram. That is how you run your game.
Look, it was a good episode. It completely belonged to Shivin Narang as he showed the breakdown of Rudra in a restrained manner and you feel like slapping both Maya and Ananya for entirely different reasons. Maya, because that blind woman is a self-made Gandhari who would rather choose darkness than surrender to light. Ananya? Watch the episode and you will know. She was almost dragging Rudra to the mandap. Rudra had to metaphorically beg her to let him go. Rudra was at fault , but for the sake of your own dignity and his dignity, let him go.
And Maya; Nandini, Rudra and even Rajeev truly love you.... DESPITE THE WAY YOU ARE.
I don't have anything else to say about today's episode because this question stayed with me after watching it.
P.S- Rudra and Nandini are PURE LOVE. And this love story is doomed. Maya and Rudra are star crossed and meant to end in tragedy.
Note: I am sorry for delayed replies and no replies. I just run short on time. Will reply everything that I can today and the previous post over the weekend. My apologies. ❤️
