Eclipse - Shining in that borrowed light!
Today I was reminded me of Devkit marriage track. The scene where Sai returns to CN after Devkit marriage and Virat stops her from entering. It was so similar, yet so different.
Virat stopped Sai from entering the house and he did the same here. He talked about trust, he spoke about the intensity of the hurt when cheated by someone who is considered their own.
Today he used the similar words. He doesn't trust her.
The difference. Then he called out the deceiving by his own person. Today, he couldn’t call out so. It was just "I don't trust you". However, it has an extension which is bringing his trust issues more strongly. Then it was only about Devi's wedding, today it carries a huge baggage, with JM playing heavy on his mind. I know he was a distraught father, but the distrust on Sai seed was sown much before. And laid the foundation for V to doubt her.
Again, how could he? After knowing so much about her, and having seen through his own eyes, he could never learn a thing about her character.
What changed. Sai used to stay in CN but was forced to leave. Today she does not stay there but forced her way in (But will leave at her own will). And this is where my doubts on P strengthens. Why I feel that P is playing mind games.
Whether it is mental illness or simply her evil side, but I feel the game is definitely up. Why I say so.
Sai is the Light (good) and P is the darkness (Evil)
Let's go back to the same night of Devkit wedding. When V is asking Sai to leave forever, P is instigating Sai. She said "Sai will not leave. She always says she wants to leave but she will not. Isn't that true". Now what she was trying to do was stab on Sai's self respect, her ego. And she used this tactic quite often then. But Sai called her out for reading minds and to stay away from husband and wife's matter. And later when V realised the truth, he also spoke the same words to P, about reading minds and staying out of his personal life. So what happened was, V saw Sai's goodness and P's evilness starkly visible in that light.
So changed her strategy. Instead of calling out, or opposing Sai, she supports her. And she shines out by borrowing Sai's light and Sai becomes overshadowed. Like an eclipse, she has covered the sun, and she is shining from the light she is covering...the borrowed light!
She spoke rudely to Sai, pushed her and said all things that she probably had no right considering her own past. She vented out all her anger, because she knew the family was by her side and shared the same perspective. More importantly Virat. This was her chance and no one will suspect it to be anything but a mother's desperation.
Focus on the words she used to accuse Sai. They are not the same as Devkit wedding night. She has changed her approaching style. She is not instigating Sai, because she is already guilty and is anyways not interested in returning to CN. She is instigating the family, putting off any remaining chances of melting towards Sai. Her words are of a mother whose child has been wronged by Sai. Who would not see that pain. Who would not agree with P's state and accusations. She is only making everyone pro her and anti Sai. Why?
P wants to get Vinu out. She knows Sai can help in it. But what happens after that? Sai earns those brownie points. So what does she do? Gives Sai the brownies and earns the points for herself.
If Sai had left Vinu may or may not have come out. She wanted Sai to help. But she wanted to utilise this opportunity to take revenge. But when Sai decided to leave, she stopped because she could afford to let Sai go either. She was checking Sai's limits, whether she will force her way in. Which she didn't.
She knew, if Sai had forced her way in, then the credit would go entirely to Sai. So she asked her to come in despite the strong opposition. The family is against P's decision, but they are completely in favour of P as a person. And once Vinu is convinced P will be celebrated. Even with the "thank you" to Sai, P will be shining through it. Mind Games. Strategy
See that look from V to P. "Why would you get her in?" It was so domestic. Sai was the outsider and V-P are spouses. Bitching about a third person!!
Also, did you note her expression when Sai swore that she will leave Nagpur the day Vinu runs the race? She was so relieved. She knows how Sai functions. And she knows what this statement means. The real P is ecstatic and dancing away.
Small mercies. Vinu confirms that Sai did not reveal the adoption truth to him. So V-P, Ashwini and Ninad know the fact. V does give that look to P as well. I'm guessing P's mind will be scheming already. She will go after Sai to thank, in a way halting V's attempt at it. Ab pati bole ya pati baat to ek hi hai na. Thanks to dono ki taraf se banega
Back to Devkit track parallel.
Then Sai left and he turned his face away from her. Today he was so absorbed, he didn't notice that she left.
Today Sai was not just convincing only Vinu. But herself. She was convincing Vinu that V-P are his parents and they love him. They are his happy family.
And she was also convincing herself to believe and accept the same things. She saw how V was consoling P and how they bonded as a family when Vinu came out. A picture that she once saw of her family, was there. But she was no longer in that picture. So she leaves.
Sai is slipping away from V and he is unaware of it. His realisation will come too late. When he would want to hold her back and she is much beyond his reach.
Now, just like Devkit track will V go after Sai to apologise? Guess he will. There is too much said that he can't take back. He can keep apologising his whole life. Sai will try to let it pass, as she is guilty herself.
What came next? V gets shot? Will we have a repeat..Maybe Sai this time? Or is it P playing her game and getting injured?
But for how long will she cover the sun? She will have to move away and make way for the sun to shine.
