I am going to move away from my usual humor tone today. The episode was very gripping for me. I was not able to look away from the screen for a second. I know a lot of you have a lot of mixed emotions, for me I saw desperation and hunger for love. For me, this episode was the start of something new and interesting. There are a lot of uncertainties, and that is what makes it exciting. My tone is flat for the write-up as I wanted to avoid making any assumptions for future tracks! It's my attempt to simply understand what is happening currently!
It's safe to say Anirudh has crossed over and beyond insanity. He comes under the insane lover category now. For him, no Jhanak means no life worth living for. Jhanak does not lie, that is what he thinks. She has clearly stated she does not have feelings for him, she does not want to live around him or be married to him. He does not know she is lying to him about her feelings. He cannot force her to marry him, at least not yet, he has not crossed that limit yet. But can he do that and will he do that?
How can you keep someone around you who does not want to be around you? -- emotional blackmail
Will this emotional blackmail keep Jhanak with him forever? -- No
Will Jhanak staying in the same city and not in the same house be enough for him? -- No, but he believes yes right now!
Can he marry Arshi, and act as a puppet just so that he can convince them not to harass Jhanak? -- it seems he is prepared to do that
Will he be happy doing this? -- Not really, but he thinks if only he could see Jhanak, see her happy that would be enough for him
Is this wrong what he is doing? -- From Anirudh's point of view it's life or death for him. He thinks if Jhanak leaves he will be left alone in the world with no one to understand him. However crazy this may sound, he is thinking of living based on the smallest possible connection he can have with Jhanak. this is so heartbreaking! How alone this guy must be feeling.
Will he introduce Jhanak as his wife? -- If needed he can use this card, but he is still careful about it as Jhanak does not accept the marriage and he does not intend to force her. He has not crossed that limit. On the other side, Arshi and his family's wrath remains an issue. But if Jhanak accepts then there is no stopping him.
I want to see you happy and promise me you will never leave me --- these were his two demands and they are contradicting things unless they accept the marriage!
It will be interesting to see to what length will he go to keep Jhanak around. There is extreme or nothing in this love story. Anirudh always takes it one step at a time. When emotional blackmail fails, he will find out a new way to keep Jhanak around. I am waiting to see what this insane lover will do next.
Coming to Jhanak...
If we think Anirudh is a mad lover, I think Jhanak is not too far from it. Even after she promised herself and others thousands of times that she would never return to Bose's house, she came back with Anirudh.
What could have been the reason? divorce or marriage? -- I am willing to think it could be neither of those and she will still come with him simply because she is worried about his state of mind and Anirudh holding her on to the promise she made. From the inside though, part of her also wants to be with him and that has always been the case for Jhanak. Her love for Anirudh is not letting her give up so easily.
Did she promise Ani she would come with him? -- not in words but Anirudh has taken it by holding her hands!
Anirudh made a promise to Jhanak
"Ab ye hath me kabhi nahi chodunga. Har kadam pe, har musibat me ye mere sath rahega..."
Musibat == his family!
Hath chodawane wale == his family!
Some contradiction there!
Anirudh and Jhanak will be facing a real test of their love for each other now. Will they hold on to each other against all odds?
Anirudh recognized sindoor means something to Jhanak. Jhanak who resisted before when he pulled her closer by her hands, later gave in and was resting in his arms willingly...
Anirudh's look when she said, "aisa to nahi ke aap muzase pyaar karate ho!", his desperation to keep her close at all costs, him saying if he behaves it will be fine...
It is time to look beyond words now for both of them... really understand each other's pain and happiness.
If Jhanak was in need of help so far, it looks like Anirudh is in need as well now... Will they be able to understand each other? Only time will tell us!
This was a messy conversation, with lots of raw emotions ... With one hug from Jhanak, Anirudh imagined and lived a beautiful night with her as if he was living it as her husband and telling her everything that was in his heart!
I do not want to judge this in terms of what is right and what is wrong at this point. I would rather just look at it in terms of emotions and their longing for each other. Now it's on makers how they handle this. I am simply excited as it's the start of something new finally! Let's hope for the best!
. I cannot go through another round of J’s insult and AniChi pda. Sadly no amount of RuNak luka chupi romance, their impending confession will make me watch this show
