Hi friends 😃
So it's d day after d much anticipated ME . And what an epi it was !!!
This is for TEAM RJN ….👏👏👏
The principal theme of d epi - as Lashy so aptly said - is of course - Sanchi's coming to terms with LOVE … the unfolding of d realization , that it is something more than mere 'Dosti' that she feels for her soon-to-be-ex Husband - Indu singh 😉 Her confusion , her bewilderment , n d gradual coming to terms with d new status of her feelings for Indu … loved d way all of it was handled n paced …. 👍🏼
But for me , a self-confessed admirer of d character - Indu Singh 😳 , d high-point of d epi is d fact that here , my favourite anti-hero officially completes a cycle of his Individuation 😊 When Indu is confiding to his buddies , we see that he has a complete realization of the extent of his transgressions ….. He understands that in pursuit of his own dream of acquiring Sanchiji's love - he has trampled upon HER dreams and made Her life a living hell ….. In that moment we can feel , that an erstwhile narcissist , who could hardly see anything beyond his own needs n desires , has been transformed into an integrated individual , who understands the true meaning of LOVE …. that it is not about acquisition or possession … but about unconditional giving - without expectation of getting anything back in return !!!
Of course Indu always possessed a 'heart of gold' ...😉 But it was gold ore which needed processing 😆 As Indu now decides to let go of his LUBE …. unburdening her of an imposed Rishta …. setting her free so that she can pursue her dreams n realize her destiny , we see that - the spoilt-brat-mama's-boy - has mature into 24-carat Manhood ⭐️….
Indu has come a full circle …. Today when I saw him standing besides Sanchi , clad in a yellow kurta - applauding her in her moment of glory …. my mind went back to another time …. when , with a similar yellow kurta on , he was escorting Sanchiji-Mathur up d steps of d dais , where she was to receive d best-student award ... The acts that he used to perpetrate in those days …. d thoughts that drove him then - as he stole sly glances at Sji , were so different in intent n quality , from those that guides him now
After that Push he gave Sanchi on that fateful day , when he abducted n forcibly wedded her , we had wondered how he would ever redeem himself in Sanchi's eyes …. But lo-and-behold !!! Today , as he walks out of Mathur-Niwas - suitcase in hand - it is Sanchi who is imploring him to stay back !!!
Sry guys , if I bored u al with my ramblings ... bt I felt so excited after d ME , that I had to share my thoughts ... 😃
Well … here's to our INDU n his journey - though unintentional - towards Wholeness….
Some vintage lines from Dav Anand classic Gambler …
Yeh pyaar humne kiya jis tarha-se
Uskaa na koi jawaab
Zarra the lekin tere lau me jalkar
Ham bangaye aaftaab ….
Dil aaj shaayer hai .. Gham aaj nagmaa hai .. Sab yeh gazal hai sanam ..
Have a gr8 Day 🤗
Ye Hai Mohabbatein
