Once again wonderful post Anjana...!
Knowing Anandi, she has always had this line between what is right and what is not...She never crossed that line knowingly, though may be she must have commited some mistakes unknowingly...She knew that though her heart wanted to forgive Jagya, because he was her childhood friend, her husband since childhood, she also knows that what he did is not forgivable...The insults as well as the pain he had given her are beyond the limits she could take...Each time she thought that he would stop there, he did something bigger and that only made her bleed more...She might forgive him for dadisa, bhairon as well as Sumitra, but that forgiveness would have held no meaning, because it would have been fake...When Anandi would feel that he is really worth forgivining, her heart will know and she would do what she can, just so that Jagya gets back to where he belongs...And she knows she will never be free of this guilt, unless she will forgive and move on, but she also knows that it won't be whole heartedly and that will still haunt her...So, for now it is good that she decided what she felt...Her pain is for the family, who are Jagya's blood relations...She is not able to see them in tears, which is making her more and more guilty and Dadisa put her right on track, as she started derailing...
I am so glad and happy to hear dadisa, now it feels that she is really a very much changed women...Her words were heart touching and the way she said that she is their daughter and not a animal that they would shift her from one person to another...It made me feel so proud of the change in her...It must be no doubt painful for her, but she stood by Anandi at the time in need...Anandi is also able to confess her fears to dadisa without a hitch and that shows their strong bond...Yeah she is emotional seeing Jagya in front of her, but she also knows her boundaries now...She is bestowed to someone else now and her relationship to Jagya has ended a long time ago...She won't look back, just because she feels bad for him...Feeling the need to forgive is not the same as accepting him and she knows where she stood in his life now.,...and that is nowhere...Gauri was his choice and he did marry her, no matter it was legal or not...For Anandi it was real and she has already told Gauri that she would never look twice at someone else husband...Further, it is not just question of that...Now she too is bound with a new relationship and knowing Anandi, she will always respect that and would always give priority to that relationship, more than her past...That is the way she is, because once a person like her commits to something it is for life time...And for her this commitment is binded with blessings and trust of so many people on her, which she would never break...
So, yes, she will definately take Shiv's support and move forward, making Jagya realize the boundaries of their relationship, building a clear wall where it is needed, though Jagya would try to break free of it, but he still has to realize that Anandi's decisions are not made on a whimp like his and they are strong enough to hold the storms, when needed...! She will move past him, before him and Shiv will strengthen her trust, with his support and love for sure...! And you are right, she has already made this progress, when she gave her hand to Shiv to put on the bangles...It shows that she is moving forward leaving her past behind...!
