Alok Nath's acting was MINDBLOWING ... and Angad was superb with his SHOCKED look.
Really ... the shock one gets when they see the dead body of a much loved person so suddenly.
I was lucky when my mom died in this way ... she sink'ed infront of me ... I was beside her when the heart beat stopped ... and that machine showed it going down and down and .... painfully down....
I had a friend back in my school days who was not so lucky. Her mother went outside for some work ... and she went to school ... when she came back she saw her mother's dead body. She died in an accident ... it was like a split moment death ... out of nowhere.
Such deaths shock people. The slow death which comes through the regular hospitalization or severe illness process, however gruesome still, is probably not at par with the GRIEF AND SHOCK that such death (e.g. that of Sadhna for Mamaji or Alekh or Ragini) can bring.
A daughter is after all irreplacable in any whichever way one can think of. Surely, for Alekh, Sadhna is also irreplacable and the husband-wife relationship is holy ... but in usual cases a wife can come again ... but a daughter can never.
Marriage makes the daughter belong to another man... true. But a father is always a father, and a daughter a daughter. I know Sadhna is not his own daughter ... but the way Mamaji and Sadhna's relationship flourished and prospered and joined and merged ... its simply unique and special.
I know ... its unthinkable that there can be anyone else but Sadhna in Alekh's life (that is what I hope from RS ji). I hope he does take part in the last rituals required for Sadhna. Sadhna deserves this much. No shock or grief should take this away from her ... please Alekh Babu!...
