Hey... What a coincidence.. I had previously made a post on the same.. I dont have the link.. So I will just copy n paste my post in this.. It was a HumTum post I made long back during their studio scene.. The title I gave was: Understanding Anniyan through MEIEJ. (I would advice you not to read the big paragraphs in the post. Its clunky writing from me)
You : Are you talking to yourself?
Me : Of course not. Just talking to the voices in my head.
Me : Its not a big deal. Lots of people have DID.
Me : Dissociative Identity Disorder.
You : Oh. Yeah. Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde. I know the story.
Me : Yes. Well.. Anyway, you neednt worry about me. I watched this week's episode of MEIEJ very carefully. But my doubts are still not cleared.
You : Oh. I think I can help you today. You are the one who always helps me. Its my turn now. The RK-Rishabh-Rishu equation! Let me tell you..
Me : (Resigned) You are going to tell me either way, I suppose..
You : Yeah.. Its a long and fascinating story, a bit confusing certainly. But if you listen carefully you will understand. It began with RK humiliating Madhu in the party! When Radhaji heard about it she got very angry and lectures RK. Rishabh hears it and goes in search of Madhu. He reaches the studio. He saw Madhu about to be electrocuted and lifts her off the bridge. While Madhu was lambasting RK, Rishabh saves her from the blast. And then the BG music starts and Madhu is like all lost... in the middle of which RK tells her to go and die. He never leaves Rishabala alone! Anyway, after that RK yells at the security to open the door when suddenly Rishabh notices that Madhu is about to fall.
He runs to catch her and then lays her down. He notices the cut on her feet. He was rubbing her feet when Madhu wakes up and notices RK. She gets angry. But Rishabh interrupts her and offers her his coat. Madhu refuses and finds an old blanket. She starts to cough and sneeze. Rishabh notices that she is also shivering from cold and asks her to change her wet clothes. Madhu agrees to change her dress after RK threatens to change it himself. She changes her dress in the make-shift cover that Rishabh makes. Madhu is angry with RK for forcing her, when RK reminds her of the 40 lacs he spend on her. Lots of tu-tu-mein-mein between RK and Madhu.
RK eventually stops and goes from there. Madhu limps to a small stairs and sits down to look at the cut in her leg and Rishabh watches her. He manages to find some clean cloth and water to bandage her leg. Madhu says no. As if she would allow RK to bandage her leg! But Rishabh takes her leg and cleans her wound. In between Madhu clutches his shoulders in pain. But Madhu lets go when she sees RK.
After some time Rishabh comes and offers a packet of biscuits. But Madhu refuses to take anything from RK and goes from there. While she walks away, Rishabh sees her limping. Madhu tries to open the door while RK taunts her calling her a superwoman. Suddenly the light goes off and Madhu is frightened by some noise. She runs and hugs Rishabh. What a romantic moment. (dreamy) Yes. Well.. to get on.. Rishabh then makes a bonfire for Madhu and offers her biscuits. Madhu like before, refuses to take anything from RK. While eating it, RK bites his own tongue and accuses Madhu of black magic. Madhu starts to nod off. There is peace for some time.
RK looks at his wallet, while Rishu talks to his father. Suddenly Rishabh notices Madhu is about to fall, he runs to save her hair from burning. Eventually he sleeps with his arms around her. Morning dawns. They wake up. Madhu sees RK's wallet and the photos and asks about his father. RK tells her the that within two hours of taking the photo his father hanged himself. He was 12 years old then.
Poor boy, he lost his father so suddenly. Everything happened so fast. One minute Rishu sees his father's body hanging and the next minute RK was lighting the funeral pyre. Rishu couldnt even say a proper goodbye to his father. Tragic.. really.. I feel so bad for Rishu. Madhu was so upset to hear the story. After that she didnt even protest when RK took her in his arms and carried her everywhere. I think she is the best person to heal him. What do you think?
Me : You are right. If she cant then obviously no one else can... One minute she is shouting and kicking him and the next moment she is goggling and hugging him. Like R-R-R, hers is also clearly a case of multiple-personas-struggling-for-dominance-in-one-body.
You : You seem to have grasped the story well. So yours doubts are all cleared?
Me : Its nothing much.. Its just that both were stranded in that sorry excuse of a studio... If both of them had died there, would there have been a mass burial?
Thought of the week for Madhubala
I knew that I had come face to face with some one whose mere personality was so fascinating that, if I allowed it to do so, it would absorb my whole nature, my whole soul, my very art itself.
