Arti - very well said - I agree by the word, and is exactly what I've been saying. Despite the presence of the 'boys' this scene was about Gulaal! Who she was, who she buried inside, and who is being revived! Eventually it turned out to be about Kesar. It wasn't about Vasant anytime - and interestingly, the fact that the camera may have zoomed into Vasant's face in that FB, but Gulaal herself had neither seen his face, nor known the man he is a message. When the Piru Maari song comes to chavv dikhlaavo - the only face she sees is Kesar - because she never did see Vasant's face in that memory! She only danced to his beat - because it attracted her to him in the first place. Interestingly, in Kesar's case - its turning out to be the other way round. She knows the face, she knows the man, she knows his love - and now... the beat draws her in. She's not being drawn in an unknown, this is not an inexplicable attraction to a plain music beat - this is the rekindling of her love for music added to her love for this man - which doesn't jump at her like love yet, but jumps at her like a crazy unmanageable burst of emotion he has evoked!
Oh I like how you put this, Jzee...gives me even more perspective👏...So an interestingly written turnaround...to go from being attracted to a beat played by a man whose face she hadn't seen to now being attracted to a beat yet again but towards a face so familiar...a face she's known forever, knowing he loves her but never expecting to feel ANYTHING of that sort for him...to feel an ATTRACTION in ANY form towards THAT familiar face...again the rhythm being the common factor...like arti said, that is what is Gulaal's basis as a character...but WHO she felt attracted to due to that rhythm this time is what shocked her so much as she emerged from that daze.
