Purple shirts...
After seeing today's Epi, I thought Food for Thought tho banta hai.
As far as I can see neither can Krishna or Pratigya can be blamed. Guys get your popcorn .. as this one will be longgg.
Now all the men (Krish, Adharsh, Shaktia... Shyam not considered man..lol) today were wearing puple shirts... but it was just unlucky for Krishna and Adharsh.
Now these two main characters of today's epi have been arrested on the same day, and co-incidently the two were married on the same day aswell. I wonder if they will become dad's on the same day too.
Now the answer can be seen quite easily...
The two tracks were running at the same time. It shows on one end that Adharsh was taking rishwat out of greed. He wasn't doing it for promotion or to help that man.. he did it purely out of love for the money. He then celebrated this with a glass of sharaab, proudly. (Loved Adharsh's Greedy expressions).
On the other hand we have Baba... who beat Raadhe up because Raadhe was ruining his business and the hard work of Kriya. How else would one deal with a character like Raadhe? He is a pest that will not go away. So Baba did what Raadhe didn't expect.. coz as far as he was concerned he felt he was the new Dabaang! It's clear from the parallel track that Adharsh was being greedy, whilst Krishna was out and about working hard to promote his business.
Now Pratigya is right.. That in businesses you will make enemies. The truth is that really does happen and you cannot deal with all of them by beating them up or by sending goons. Krishna had taken the step too quickly by beating Raadhe up. Pratigya's idea was working well. As much as we want Raadhe beaten up.. Idealistically this is not the way to do business. You have to rise above the negatives. But Krishna did not know another way then from what he has seen his father and brother doing.
Now ... Krishna has hid the truth from Pratigya about beating Raadhe up, breaking her trust again in a way. He also on the swing said that next time he will kill Raadhe. So what has Krishna learnt after Pratigya taking the bullet incident? He is still resolving or will possibly resolve to third degree violence.
Though I do feel for Krishna.. and I can see why he did what he did, he is a hot male who cannot bear the insults from the likes of Raadhe. Who is working hard at making his business grow.
If another customer or business rival had stooped that low instead of Raadhe, I'm sure Krishna would not have beaten him up. But as this was Raadhe I think the situation changes.
That was a round -up of analysing who did what and why.
Moving on to my view.
Shyaam - Not supporting Adharsh. Right! Because Shyaam has taught his kids right and wrong and it was up to his children to take the right path. So I cannot blame him for that. After years of his hard work his children want to tarnish his name then.. so be it, that is their call.
Shyaam and Pratigya are verly alike they have a list of right and wrong that they try and work with. BUT WHY DID BOTH MAKE FLEXIBLE ADJUSTMENTS WHEN IT CAME TO ARUSHI? WHY DID THIS KID GET BETTER TREATMENT FROM BOTH? WHY WAS SHE GIVEN A SECOND CHANCE, WHEN WHAT SHE DID WAS SOOO WRONG? SHE LEFT NO STONE UNTURNED IN TARNISHING THE SAXENA NAME?. But then, you also hid the fact from the law that the night Angaad died .. Adharsh was involved too..., You were prepared to save him then... but not now?
Pratigya - Not supporting Adharsh, Right lawfully. Adharsh is elder to her and should know his duties better. But again she gave preferential treatment to her sister - who did socially wrong, possibly lawfully too.
As a sister I do expect her to have feeling, worry and sentiments for her brother - which she does have. (Coz she rang Shyaam, and went to see Krishna at the Adda).
Komal - Supporting Adharsh, Well she doesn't know much about wrong, and you cannot expect her to either. But he is there supporting her husband.. and I agree with her. When Adharsh did wrong - she enjoyed the benefits from it aswell. It will be good to see a strong character like Komal fighting too.
Pratigya - Not Supporting Krishna. (Grey Area)
Now to keep him out of jail she took the bullet. She did it once, Krishna didn't tell her about the beating incident either.
Again she believes what ever the law says that's right. There are times in life when the law does not give the help a person needs. Some times as a person you have to understand that law is there as a guide to follow.. but as a person you have to sometimes find your own way. It is upto the individual to make their own boundaries. This was no murder situation where she cannot do anything for him.
Because when it comes to a situation - there have been times she has slapped (physically assulted) too, Like Angaad, Raadhe etc. So Krishna did the same. Is slapping or physical violence only allowed at a time of Sexual assault? (That's when she's normally slapped people).
Krishna has lifted a weapon on his brother to defend her too, was that not considered illegal?
So there are two ways of thinking... it depends on the person you are, of how and where you rank the crimes.. committed.
Some would Say Pratigya let it go and release your husband from jail.
Some would say that once arrested it is upto the law to punish him.
But would Punishing Krishna be right, considering he was provoked. And in English law.. a case of provokation can turn the table on things.
If Adharsh had not been imprisoned at the same time, would Pratigya have rescued Krishna or not? without having her principles compromised and challenged? I think here she has come under the pressure.. of trying to be fair to both.
Both have commited an activity which comes under criminal activity.
The level is different... One was GBH, almost and the Other was to do with money, which could have implications later on the bank and other bodies, and also have an impact on the jobs of others in the establishment. But on the other hand the same establishment also promotes workers on recommendation, compromising the equal opportunities policy (whether that is the same in allahabaad).
So the moral of the FFT is... It is all circumstantual... and Neither Pratigya or Krishna are in the wrong. It all depends on each person and their perspective. I have just tried to capture all angles of the characters actions and their feelings.
I may be law abiding myself, But I would forgive Krishna for the attack on Raadhe because Raadhe was asking for trouble repeatedly. But idealistically of it is a problem with normal business rivals or customers then this would not be the way to deal with it.
I would also forgive Adharsh, But I may not trust him, and the respect for such a citizen will be lost in my eyes.
What I would like to see... is the wives supporting their husbands.. Just like Naina was supporting Shyaam Sax when he was in jail over the murder charge! 😃 There's my answer! Coz in the world we live in, many are accustomed to stick by their loved ones, especially in marriage .. for better or for worse. 😉
Now can ss be behind Adharsh's arrest? Or have the CV's given him a holiday, so that the story line becomes Pratigya ban jayee?
... after the release of the characters - it will be interesting to see where the story heads...
