It was another new day, when the light from the sun fondled nature lovingly.....
A simple, shy, innocent yet intoxicatingly beautiful young girl ran out from the realms of her small home, into the streets of Vrindavan, entranced by the music of the raas-leela....
She stopped to catch her breath..... but couldn't .....she was drunk with love....love for her beloved kanha!!!!!
The music of the raas-leela intoxicated her even more..... the world seemed more of an illusion.... she danced silently to the raas-leela's music....unaware of any bodily existence..... only thing she spoke, the only thing she heard, the only thing she saw was her Kanha......
There she was ..... moving rhythmically to the music..... unaware that a tall, hansome, assertive, and amazed young man was approaching with a camera..... he would need it to capture something soo mysteriously beautiful..... something so serene.....
But little did he know, that this Beauty was to be enjoyed....but from a distance......
The flash of his camera snapped the girl back into the harsh reality..... stole her away from her kanha....away from the heavenly abode she always longed for....
Their eyes met..... his eyes amused....and amazed that such beauty could ever exist... her eyes- shy, afraid just like something mysterious of nature which is afraid of being discovered by Man.....yet strikingly innocent....
Moments passed.....no.....years..... both were lost....... without any knowledge about the way to return back to the reality....the present....
It was none other than Radhika.....the shy, simple "Meera" indeed....who lived for none but kanha....
From that day onwards....she named her life after someone else......HER kanha- Dev...
We all have been discussing about the various phases of the Serial.....it's magical at times, frustrating most of the times, shocking, saddening, delightful and a lot more emotions are portrayed....
The serial has many mysteries which have been hidden from Dev- truths which need to be exposed to the surface....
But there is something even more mysterious from all these- and it's none other than Radhika.
During all these 150 episodes...... Radhika's character has shown various faces of a woman.
She resembles the forces of nature represented in a woman....
Radhika defines Purity....she's pure....she's innocent...she's vulnerable
She's like water..... nourishing and nurturing her family....the ones she loves.....with care and tenderness....warmth and love...
She's like fire...when she sees something standing on the way of her duties- as a daughter, as a sister, as a wife(remember she spoke out against Ammaji and devki, when they stopped her form doing her duties as Dev's wife)...... she accepts reality without questioning it.... yet she knows that truth can never change...... what if it is only covered with false evidences????
She's like ice....as cold as ice....to Dev....(which we all hate).....
She's yet again....like air.... caressing and fussing about Dev....whenever he's hurt..... like a breeze....
Lastly.... it's her realization...that even though she might not be recognized by her social identity "Radhika Rajpurohitayn" ....but it's her realization, that only she and no other woman, is, was and ever will be in the eyes of God identified as "Radhika Dev Rajpurohitayn" that makes her submissive yet assertive at the end of the day.....
And it's still the same question that probes Dev and even us even today- "Who is she?.................................. What is she?"
