Trishna -Balraj scene - Emotional state of panic and fear.
Trishna wants to thank her producer and is agahst to find out that he is none other than her father Balraj. All flashback scenes. She tries to escape the place before Balraj can see her. But fear and panic gets the better of her and she faints. This is almost the same when as the child Trishna was in. We can see that Trishna has never been able to come out of the traumatic shocks that she felt with her biological father.
On the other hand Balraj...I was confused...why was he calling her Trishna, Trishna as if he recognized and then shooes everything away and calls her "my heroine has fainted". He goes to get support and meanwhile Trishna recovering, bolts from there.
Bittuji-RK Scene in Vanity - Managing business with its ups and down like every other day.
It was an interestingly shot scene. I was reminded of the recurring theme of Bittuji's ever present tension-handling for tensions through his chief's career and business ventures and consequences of it. First he used to be worried about RK's prod schedules, then we were shown of Bittuji's concern about how to get his Chief away from Mukund Dikshit accident case, then Bittuji was worried with extortion calls, and now we have Bittuji starting to get bogged down in worry with Balraj -the producer.
RK the boss was as usually comprehending his secretary/manager's tension and suggesting what he has to do...as usual. And RK is called to do his shots...his bread and butter earning work.
Wow!! for the first time I got to hear a director saying aloud to RK, that his shot was perfect.
Trishna - Padmini scene - What binds them together? A relationship born of sharing pain together and learning to love each other.
Living trauma together, coming out of it together and the love for each other...Today, there was not a moment when there could have been anyone between the two. When Trishna comes running in panic to Padmini, she almost wants to tell her mother that Balraj is back. But something makes her to decide against it. May be she didn't want Padmini to feel the pain. May be she will tell her mother when she calms down.
And the dialogues beautifully built up the drama. When Padmini says that Madhu was here...suddenly Trishna realizes that ..oh! yes Madhu is also there...but we do not see the typical jealousy of hers...but someone that is also there between her and her mom and who also needs to be protected, no matter what.
RK-Madhu and Shamsher scene.
I am so moved by their scenes in duo or tri fashion with each other, starting from the phone call placing by RK to Shamsher, Madhu coming to meet up RK at the studio with all disappointment and RK sensing it, Madhu and Shamsher meeting Madhu first and telling her how Rishabh has called him.
Wow!!! Did you hear that ? Shamsher called RK as "Rishabh". That's really something. Really something.
And then the entire trio conversation was so beautifully done. And the marked contrast comes out today that how RK is much better in presenting his case. He makes people think ...Shamsher and RK conversation went to such a high mental plane of understanding, anger and disappointment and yet a driving down understanding of trust between the two. It was just beautiful to watch. I am sure if RK had gone with Madhu to talk to Padmini, he would not have had a high pitched reaction from Padmini, but far more heart-wrenching pain at RK for even thinking about it. Regardless RK would have broken the barriers towards realization far more effectively.Alas! he should not be doing everything by himself. Protocol forbids him that.
Anyways, without any ado, I would bring forth the conversation that I had with Zorica yesterday regarding Shamsher and Padmini's relationship. I might as well quote it again here.
Zorica asked
What is the name of this relationship.
Me to Zorica
Padmini answered it as "the relationship of trust, respect and purity."
However, in the mangalsutra scene, Shamsher was so lovingly looking at Padmini when she fumbles a bit to tie it around her neck. A man who loves her daughters as his own, why wouldn't he love her when she takes care of him so much. But just that he is her knight in shining armour and his milady happens to be a married woman. All that is left for him to do it just lay his life down for her and in return never ask anything. That's his gentleman's promise to his milady, one who is not a lady in distress, but a strong lady who chose to save her kids from her evil husband without anyone's help and expecting no help.
Zorica to me
At the very beginning it was clear that this would be a good show. Here we are able to meet first with the image of Balraj, but also to understand how strong bonds connect Padmini and the children. Traumatic experience for her and Trishna, but she was lucky to meet Malik even while Madhu is born. RK had the opportunity to see what the viewers saw at the very beginning in terms of their relationship, and that is a great understanding, respect and mutual concern. Malik has always acted with Padmini as she is of special value, like it was made of glass or porcelain, realizing that Padmini is essentially gentle woman (but fight like a lioness for her children). He acted shy, but always protective.
