Of Yash and Arpita's pictures on the wall

• He is afraid he will forget her and has started to already so keeps putting up more pictures on the wall just to keep their love story still a reality in some alternate world
• He has hung up those pictures as a way for his daughters to see their mom on a daily basis. Although since there are none of her holding the kids its not clear how the kids will appreciate but that's a different thought.
• He hung up all those pictures as a deterrant to his family when they pressured him to get married that - no, I am still in love with her so no way.
• He misses her - this one is too obvious and the number or the size of the pictures there doesnt merit a simple explanation.

The size and profusion and the lighting I find inexplicable and frankly, quite alarming!

There are practically no scenes between Yash and Aarti in their bedroom in which Arpita does not also loom large. That is the point, right? We are to be constantly confronted with the biggest obstacle in this relationship.

I actually find the aesthetic of self-portraits in one's room quite fascinating to begin with. On Samana's recommendation a while back, I watched a hindi film called Hum Saath Saath Hain. The three brothers in that film share a bedroom (they are all grown men, so that itself is quite strange 😆, not mention the fact that they live in a mansion, so there is no dearth of space 😆). Anyway, above each of their beds is a mega-mega-portrait. As if to mark, this where X sleeps, just in case they forget! 😆

And lo-and-behold we see the same thing in Payal and Palak's bedroom. Above each bed is a huge photo, again, as though marking territory! I can't imagine having solo pics of myself around my apartment! Imagine running into yourself all the time like that! Or perhaps it soon merges into the decor and you barely notice? Which is why Yash has plastered every available surface? So that he can't BUT notice?!
