Hi everyone
I am not sure how long I will continue my daily episode analysis because once Armaan leaves on sabbatical, or wherever he is going, my motivation will also nose dive.
After watching today's episode, I felt all the main characters are victims of a major guilt complex and remorse. There is a subtle difference between guilt and remorse. Guilt can often make people a little negative and pessimistic, to the point of depression, irritability, resentment and even blame others. Remorse on the other hand is a more positive emotion, a way to heal or make things better for the person whom you feel you have wronged.
ARMAAN:
Armaan, IMO, is showing major signs of remorse. He is upset that by coming back, he has ruined Ridz's happiness and at this point his remorse will make him do anything- even if that means confronting Sid with the DP. He has no business to interfere but it's his remorse and the desire to make Ridz happy once again that takes him to Sid.
SID:
Sid again feels guilty for coming between Armaan and Riddhima's love story. He is remorseful about the fact that it's their marriage that is keeping the two lovers apart from each other. He couldn't live with this guilt and wants to terminate this marriage to free himself from these chains of guilt.
RIDDHIMA:
Of course, our darling Ridz will never make it easy for anyone to interpret her true feelings.
After thinking hard about Ridz's conflicting and bizarre behavior, I feel that she has a major guilt complex gnawing at her...
Since Armaan has been back, lot of her anger and outbursts are a result of this guilt complex. Deep down, she probably feels that she failed Armaan (we saw glimpses of that when she cried in front of ganesh) and that's why instead of being remorseful, she is lashing out at Armaan. Does she realize that the more she lashes out at Armaan, the more guilty and unhappy she becomes?
Now, the divorce papers just reinforced this guilt complex in her- she feels she has failed in her marriage too. She sacrificed her love for this marriage and now this divorce comes as a slap on her face- you are not worthy of being my wife
For a girl like Ridz, rejection is equivalent to failure in her life. When Armaan left her, she was ready to kill herself,and now when Sid is on the brink of rejecting her, she is going crazy.
She realizes that she would never be in this situation had she taken control of her own decisions. Instead of blaming her own weakness, she is of course blaming daddy dear, Armaan and Sid! Can anyone else control your life unless you let them control it Ridz? She is guilty about not taking her own decisions but cannot accept her mistake yet again.
Her outburst on seeing Shashank, "kya aap Armaan ko wapas bhej sakte ho? Kya aap Sid se mera talaq rukwa sakte ho?" was a bit surprising especially because it came right after her wanting to be in control of her own life. My only interpretation of this could be a sarcasm at her dad. Shashank said, "sab kuch theek ho jaayega beta." but she knows sab kuch theek nahin hoga, her dad CANNOT fix everything in her life like he has tried to in the past.
Hope Riddhima sticks to her decision this time because time again she has proved that she never practices what she preaches.
SHASHANK:
The moment Shashank saw Armaan, he was stunned, shocked and maybe (my wishful thinking) a bit guilty. Guilty because he had predicted that Armaan would not recover from his mental illness and guilty because he is indirectly responsible for separating his daughter from Armaan- had he not acted all helpless in front of Sid, his daughter wouldn't have married Sid.
I was very pleased to see him hug Armaan- it was a genuine hug, a fatherly hug. He did the right thing, even though he was stunned, he embraced Armaan and even asked how he was doing- something his daughter to this day has failed to ask Armaan (as his ex lover, a doctor and just as a human being, she should have asked at least once)
So basically, the whole episode was a portrayal of how the different characters manifest their guilt and remorse...
Let's see what's in store
My prediction for coming parts: basically next 1-2 weeks
Shanky will join hands with Armaan to stop the divorce
Ridz will sign the papers because she wants to control her life now or out of anger (just like she married on an impulse)
Ridz will leave
Armaan will leave
Shanky will send Sid on a fetch-your-wife mission and try to make marriage work
When Sid finds Ridz, he will plead to her
She will agree to it and give her marriage another chance and give herself another chance to not feel like a failure in life
Phir aage.......Ram jaane ya CVs jaane....
