I was just going through everyone reactions to Yday's episode. A lot of u feel Jai emotionally Blackmailed Bani… manipulated the situation so that Bani herself would refuse to hear him out. Seriously I would take that as a compliment for Jai😃. I am so fed up calling him Duffer.. it is so flattering to imagine him like this. But as much as I would want to see it like that I cant. I beg to differ coz I didn't see a cold businessman there but a Jai who was scared out of his wits at the possibility of Bani being dead! Before I start let me tell u all I am defending Jai for Yday and I am not defending his raaz. Not as yet!
My take on the entire episode was that Jai was in the verge of telling Bani the truth only coz he was too shaken by the fact that she had risked her life for that God Damn Raaz. Just watch him mention the raaz… for someone who is traumatized and terrorized by the incident he sounded least bothered about that, "TUM park Road ke Raaz keliye ES waqt ES sunsan jagah par?" was what he said! The fact bani was at such a dangerous place scared him more than the raaz and without even a moment of pause he continued… "Theek hai tho main abhi ese waqt tum sab sach batadunga' Now where was the time for him to think to manipulate the issue?😕
Even when he got the SMS the didn't react to Park Road, he reacted to Bani being in danger. I didn't see a moment of hesitation when Jai got off his car at Park Road… he didn't go to live the memory of that accident, he was plainly searching for Bani at that place. As I said in my analysis, He was here to save Bani and not save himself from the Raaz. If u give him an option 'Bani or the Raaz' he will chose Bani, the same way Bani chose him. 😃😳
Now coming to Jai saying after the raaz is out they will NEVER meet eachother again… he said twice… once in the beginning and once in the end. It was something that was always on his mind. He always knew it.. it wasn't that he came up with that all of a sudden to black mail Bani. It was an issue he was trying to cope for a long time himself… and he himself is terrorized at that possibility… and when u are in such a condition… u tend to repeat it and eachtime it sounds horrific. It is the easiest way one resorts to accept the truth… keep repeating it to yourself. Jai had accepted that… Bani didn't have the guts to… she stepped back. Now how did that make it blackmailing her? 😕
Jai could have easily lambasted her and pulled her out of the place… He could have used any of his anger techniques to bail himself out of the situation and the result would have been the same. The Raaz would have remained hidden! He could have threatened to make her life miserable or he could have told her they don't share a relationship and when they don't have a future together, she has nothing to do with his past. He has said it before he could have said now. But he DIDN'T! Instead he told Bani they do share a relationship… he didn't define it, he could have. He said it all when he said "Hum ne jo waqt sath mein bitaye un lamhoon ka tho rista hai…." He encompassed all the different facets of their relationship… the relationship they shared as employer-employee, as 2 people who shared mutual admiration and respect, friends at time, enemies, as eachother comforter, protector and finally that of Husband and Wife. All of that would mean nothing once the Raaz is out is what he said. He knew Bani well enough to make out that it meant something to her… he was bound to tell her that if this Raaz is out.. this is what they both will end up losing… he was ready for it coz Bani left him with no option!😕 She was putting her risk at stake for this Raaz and he couldn't have lived with another guilt of being responsible for her death… and more over he loved her enough not to let her die for this.
So I think whatever Jai did Yday was what I would have expected of Jai Walia👏. Now if Bani doesn't want to hear it… what can the guy do? Apart from thanking his stars.😆
I don't know what the raaz is, but one thing I can be sure of is that Jai wouldn't manipulated the Law…. He is suffering from Guilt that is the reason of the high standards of humanity that he has set for himself. Jai said there is a past in everyone lives and they are entitled to hide it from the world… That was enough an indicator that Jai cant be criminally involved with the entire accident… it is more of a moral issue for Jai and if u ask me he has punished himself enough for it. Enough is Enough… he needs to get over it! Unless the creatives are out with a butchers knife to slaughter the basic characteristic of Jai Walia… I will always be on Jai's side. I always have been and will be. For one I feel he isnt capable of being Evil and 2nd of all I know Jai cant be a coward. So I am hoping against hope that in all the storm gathering around Park Road they do manage to salvage the Honour of Jai Walia at the end of it. I really wont be able to take a tarnished Jai. If that happens, I am done with Kasam se, Kasam Se!
When I am on this topic, I wonder why Jai should take all the blame of hiding the Raaz from Bani. What about her father? He is the guy who has to be blamed for all this😡. He kept silent all the while… now his daughter is finding out that he has donated lakhs of rupees to charity and demands an explanation from her husband. Now how is Jai to answer that Question? Nishikant must have had his reasons and Jai is carrying that baggage as well and chose to remain silent coz it will hurt Bani! What kind of a father would knowingly trust his daughters lives with a man who is supposedly responsible for a huge tragedy in his daughter life? Why would Nishikant Dixit tell Bani to go to Jai Walia for help knowing very well that if Bani tripped on the truth it would shatter her. That way I find Jai more considerate and caring about Bani than what her father was👏. Bani has the most priced relationship with Jai and she better think twice before putting that at stake. There is some kissa related to Nishikant Dixit coz of which Jai simply detests him… and I trust Jai's sense of judgement… he doesn't spare himself when he is wrong, there is no reason why he would spare others.
Lets wait for the actual Raaz to unfold… which is not happening today. What is happening today is just for the heck of it… the actual story will unfold later. My guess is Bani is not the ONLY victim of this accident, It is also Jai who is a victim! Jai has been lead to believe he is guilty and I can bet on the fact that there is a mastermind behind all this who is moving the pawns around the way he pleases to… and it will be quiet interesting if it turns out that the Singhanias are involved in this in some way.
That's it from me… catch u all with the analysis
Lots of Luv
Anu.
