After yesterday's absolutely brilliant episode I just don't hate bua anymore instead I pity her. All credit for this goes to Aarti. The lady is soo full of love and understanding for everyone. Even after knowing about bua's intentions and actions Aarti showed no sign of disgust or anger. In fact she was sad, that an elder of her family was in such a sorry state. She has so much malice in her heart and all that hatred is acting like poison to kill her only. Aarti sympathised with the fact that she lost her husband at an early age and lived the life of a widow. But putting blaming on others and living with enmity, she is ruining her life. She's not able to enjoy a loving family, the small pleasures of life. Aarti's words yesterday made all of Bua's actions look so small and petty. All that was irritating about Bua now seems sad. I really felt sorry for bua that she ever thought of winning against Aarti when she is miles away from even matching her, as a person. I sincerely hope she gets well soon. The whole scene was beautifully done.
In this respect, I have to say hats off to Aarti. Seriously what is this girl made of? Even after having so many bitter and tough experiences in life like being born an orphan, then facing betrayal from a husband she loved so much, then the hardship of being a single divorcee mother and all the taunt and contempt that came from society, inspite of all that Aarti is pure and unaffected. She has only love and happiness to spread. Even in case of yash, though doesn't have hatred, but Arpita's death has made him go into a shell. Which, I personally feel, is equally wrong. Shutting himself off, he is ruining his life and that of kids and parents. Aarti on the other hand, dares to fall in love again and live life to the fullest! She has no insecurities. Bua keeps saying that she prays a lot, but actually, the way Aarti is living her life with love and hope, that is the highest form of worship. The credit for this also goes to Shobha Ji. She taught her to be strong-willed,confident and optimistic. She gave her so much freedom ansd support that Aarti is not scared of her feelings and not hesitant to express herself. Both Aarti and Shobha ji are extremely progressive characters and set an example for women to follow. One's helplessness is in one's own mind.
