In a strange way, I feel that her presence could have been almost least significant to Vasant - no offense to anyon who thinks otherwise - but the kind of love story GV are shown to have shared, is just a nice happy love story. They are two righteous, devoted people who appreciate the common virtues in each other, fall in love and marry. For Vasant - I can imagine any other righteous woman, even someone only half as good looking as Gulaal - but with all the innate virtues of her person to come and become his life partner, and make his life exactly the way it was.
So true GV was a perfect couple, but what if they havent met. The answer is so simple, Vasanth could have married any other and may still be alive being an ideal son,ideal brother and an ideal husband.
On the other hand - Gulaal's advent into Dushyant's life is unique. Although it begins purely on a physical level for Dushynat - fact is, her strong personality changes the very person he is - starting from the point where he calls off the rebelling men from taking Vasant and Gulaal's case when she first enters the village. Interestingly, even in his evil phase, Gulaal inspires him to be better than he would otherwise be... and in Dushyant's case it seems as if the combination of factors - Gulaal is a beauty, Gulaal is virtuous, as well as Gulaal is a woman he cannot have - all join up to make a difference so great in his life, leading to his sin, as well as his reform. So in a way, her presence is irreplaceable. Almost.
Though Dushyanth was a bit evil at the beginning, glances of goodness was underlying in him and Gulaal was needed to discover it and only Gulaal could do it and from this we could get the meaning of why Gulaal was introduced as a superwoman and her attitude towards him could reflect the supernatural element, still residing in her, coz no other woman , doesnt matter how righteous could never deal with such a situation as she did.
Finally for Kesar - it is not about her beauty, in an odd way, it is not even about her virtues, because to him, and him alone, Gulaal is not this austere untouchable level of saint-hood. He has seen dark sides of her, which no one, including Vasant can imagine. He has seen through her vulnerability and fragility and weakness even when her exterior boasts only of resilience and strength and endurance. Kesar understands her like a consubstantial part of her soul, or her of his - without even making the effort. He doesn't know some basic first things about her - like her best friends from childhood, her favorite flowers... or even facts like her melodious voice - until someone tells him - yet, he knows her as a person in a way that even she may not understand herself. In his life, there can not only be no replacement for her - there can hardly be life itself without her. When he keeps distance from her for a decade, he lives constantly obsessing with his dilemma over her. When he changes for her sake, he thinks only about her happiness. As a kid, he can only think of how his life cannot be without her. Not for a moment. Kesar doesn't know how to survive without Gulaal. When he once told her, that he's always been so used to her presence that it will take time to get used to not having her in his life, he added, that perhaps he never really will get used... perhaps it will take forever to learn to live without her - because really, there's no living without.
In Gulaal's case too - she has survived with Vasant; of course she will survive without Dushyant - but as the finale will go on to prove - life without Kesar will be life without her soul!
If Gulaal was a part of Vasanths soul then Kesar has dedicated his entire soul to her and Gulsar would live till eternity as souls would never die.
btw - did you miss the infamous (and only alleged) trio of Kunal - Talli - Kesar?! 😆 don't you remember how many news pieces were going on about it recently?! 😆 Oh how could I? and it is so similar to the one which I avoided from counting, but this was so hilarious.Thanks for the post - ofc you were not late to make one! 😳
