Bold - yes in fact… the “kamzor pad jaata hoon” could have been a general call for support as a friend in a low phase but Leena’s dialogue writers are quite unimaginative 😂😂
In this narrative, I have never felt Ani being in love with two women consciously. In the earlier stage when the love story was being built, the conflict was so clearly outlined in the narrative that it only felt like a transition of feelings. While it is true that he had fallen in love with Jhanak , he hadn’t dealt with the actual reality of how his feelings would be until the point of Jhanak leaving Kolkata and its aftermath. If Tejas hadn’t intervened… who’s to say.. Ani and Arshi would have go on to marry as Ani never looked to dishonour his commitment to Arshi ( even as late as Kashmir) About his state of mind - that’s a separate thing.
Imv, the only time window in the story that Ani could have sensibly had a conversation with Arshi was after he came back from Kashmir ( post his resolve to never let go of Jhanak in his life) but obviously at that time he was more involved with the crisis in his life about Jhanak’s refusal and he lost it and rashly chose a path that led him to a downward spiral. Since then, it really it has been chaotic and it’s only after the tumour track that he had clarity about his love and life, shows intention to break offWhen he gets back, he is desolate but resolves to break it off. The soft hearted guy he is, he still couldn’t find the words to do that and anyways shit of on site loaded…. followed by HA. It was here, where the realisation that his adjustment/relationship with Arshi had run its course…for both his own reasons and intrinsically the way their relationship was at that stage. He again resolved to separate from Arshi, “legally” if required. He makes his intentions clear but before anything concrete happens, Jhanak’ disappears and he loses his moorings once again.
the last main kamzor padta hoon was an aberration ( expeditious) as I explained before but if I were to read his state of mind and I wish the dialogues were better, it was to say I am going through a tough time and I would appreciate your support. And if you see… even today he isn’t offering any words of promise etc… all he is saying I am not looking to leave you. Ani being a soft hearted guy… the only time he asserts himself without a filter is if it has to do with Jhanak; previously he used to do those things unconsciously.. now he does it consciously PERIOD
The statement regarding promise...yes...he no more states any promise to Arshi...he sharply called her out for clarification when she was blabbering all bullshit to J that kal raat humne Jo saath waqt bitaye, tumne jo waadein kiye mujhse...I think of late, he clearly understood the consequences of his promises to Arshi done previously and how irrevocably damaged his, Arshi's and J's lives have become to fulfill or honour those promises..
