nywyz here is wat i think...
papaji always had this suspicioun that this pink sari was a gift from mohan...remember how he saw the receipt with mohan's name on it...
and today wen megha wore it i am sure it must hv struck him but he had no issues...ok the thing maybe we can now see very clearly that papaji truely loves mohan...he is always blessing him...talking in soft tones...wanting the best for him...even sharing his deepest concerns about megha which he cud never share with his own son sanjay...
i feel papaji is now more closer to mohan than sanjay...i feel mohan has actually taken the place of amar in his life...
wat i believe is deep down papaji wanted mohan for megha...which is y wen jiji said that she thot he asked mohan to marry megha...papaji was not at all angry and even he was not stunned by jiji's notion...he very coolly explained it cannot happen considering mohan is just a bachelor and a widow with 2 kids will be a huge responsibility for him...
the way papaji tried to gv logic y he did not choose mohan...it was like he was more explaining to himself...subconsciously i think he wanted mohan and practically he thot it not viable...
little does he know that mohan is the only person who can keep megha happy...
and even today wen sanjay was about to take the sweet box from mohan...papaji urged mohan to feed sweet to everyone...now guys here i dont think papaji is that naive...he is not 5 yr old kid who wont know that a "friend" cannot feed the bride sweet in front of her fiance and his family...
i am not saying papaji did it because he wanted mohan to be the groom...but i think papaji did it because somehow he feels mohan is the only other person who cares for megha as much as he himself does...while he loves megha as a daughter...on the other hand he understands the depth of affection of mohan towards megha...but he cannot name it...thatz y he said to mohan "u r her humdard, dost...dont know wat to call u" (wen papaji went to invite mohan and indu)...
in short wat i think is megha has to go miles to understand the depth and sincerity of mohan's feelings...that the feelings r not junoon or any sort of attraction she is yet to comprehend (although now i feel she to much extent knows it)...
but papaji (i am not saying he thinks that mohan actually loves megha to marry her)...but he thinks watever feelings mohan has for megha...be it affection, care, friendship, well wisher...watever it is the intensity is profound and true from the heart...
which is y papaji unabashedly in front of manav and his mom in a very proud tone told mohan that he will become alone without megha...although mohan for a moment was a little scared...but somehow i think papaji has touched the right chord although he himself is unaware...
for me in today's date...papaji and mohan's relationship is another very unique and profound bond...something unseen in any other show...it has come a long way...this same papaji once threw chappal at mohan because he bad named his beloved son amar...today he loves mohan almost as much as amar...and i wont be surprised if tmrw he throws chappal at someone who badmouths mohan...
my salute goes to mohan for being able to make a person love him like this way which started from pure hatred...
