A self-denying and stubborn Bani, a mournful Jai with heartbreak in his eyes, and a bitter clash of beautiful memories with the bitterness of the present...That about sums up today's episode....But oh yes, there was also the effacement of past hatred but in an entirely different relationship..Jai and Pushkar...
The episode began with yet another moment between the three sisters....Only this time thankfully they did not spell out yet again what they mean to each other....Instead they did what girls normally do before a party...preen and dress...And play around with make-up😳....A nice refreshing scene...and one which made me feel that Roshni, Prachi and Arunima were sort of being themselves, and were actually having fun in a moment of girl-bonding...Pia wore a lovely sari..A divine colour....And Bani and Rano looked pretty as a picture!!!
Its so hard to support Bani these days...Its always difficult to speak reason when someone is being irrational....And resentment, grudges, and anger, wilful hatred for someone close to you...These are the most irrational sentiments...Its hard for an outsider to be convinced by them...There may be moments when one may empathise with Bani these days, but the minute one sees the effect her actions have on Jai, one is ready to turn against her....protest against her insensitivity....It used to be the same with Jai at one point of time...One felt for the betrayal he had met, but then felt angry at him for punishing Bani...Now the tables are turned...
One couldnt but get furious with Bani for the torture she was putting Jai through today...while she mingled with the crowd, Jai stood in a corner, head bowed. She avoided his gaze, but couldnt stop herself from remembering the time they had spent together in happy proximity. And then as if to drown out those memories..she decided to lend the bangles Jai had gifted to her to Seema with a challenging smile on her face. Jai's desolation complete, and the pain in his eyes was heart wrenching.
It definitely moved Maasi. She instantly enlisted Pushkar as another ally in the 'bring Jai-Bani together' campaign. Of course, Jai has no dearth of supporters, but I am glad Pushkar is involved now...He seems most reliable and trustworthy...And yes, he is one person who can tell off Pia at the drop of a hat😃...
In fact the most heart-warming scene of the day, was the reconciliation b/w Jai and Pushkar. What an irony...All of Bani's generosity and charitableness that he witnessed everyday he lived with her did not get Jai to overlook the past...It was the sense of being unforgiven that finally taught him the importance of forgiveness...But its not too late...And its reassuring to have Pushkar back in the Walia fold...The Jai-Pushkar relationship was beautifully crafted, and it hurt to see it so bitterly ruined over Pia ...
There seems a lot to look forward to in the coming episodes...Waiting to what Maasi is upto to bring Bani back...May be she will fake another illness..Like nephew, like aunt😃...Also hope to see Jai back to his pro-active self tomorrow....Hate to see him all lost and broken....I suppose Pushkar will be the one to bail out Jai now against Ranveer's machinations...And hopefully they'll start the Jai acquittal track in this Park road drama soon...There's been too much of putting him on the dock already...Aargh!!!
