An Insightful Summation of Madhubala : Episode dated 2nd Jan. 2012
"Implosive Therapy" : or to put it simply, a person who has the fear of going into the water to learn swimming, well how does one teach that person swimming…..just push him or her into the pool……RK employed this technique here, for Padmini and Mallik to, if not vocally, but through actions giving out their latent affection both nursed for each other…..
"The deepest feeling always shows itself in silence; not in silence, but restraint." (Marianne Moore)
So the news that some harm has befallen the other, this restraint of theirs was broken down and the well being of the other was their only uppermost concern…….
"Introspection" : Though Mallik seems to have accepted his feelings and also sensed Padmini is not immune either, he wants Padmini to be the first one to accept and make the move…..While Padmini is still in "denial-acceptance" state, though she's aware of her own actions belying her, her conscience is not letting her accept it……
Nothing more can be perfect than this retro to depict their relationship :
"sirf ehsaas hai rooh se mehsoos karo, pyar ko pyar hi rehno do, koi naam na do…."

"Because you believed I was capable of behaving decently, I did." (Paulo Coelho) : Whether RK is playing with Madhu's feelings to have his revenge or are his feelings genuine, that is the question?????? Till then the line by Paulo Coelho seem perfectly befitting to the RK of present…..So nice to see this couple reaching out to each other, finding solace in each other……
Now for the summation, I would say an episode going in cocurrence with the events arising in the story……Besides finding the crux in today's episode to be an interesting one, there're tit-bits that also appealed to me…..first of course being RK giving a soothing hug to a dejected Madhu…….In the closure scene, he also trying to cheer her up with some light talk…..
Once again the dialogues (courtesy-Raghuvir Shekhawat) and the performances from all; PP, BS, AP and of course VD and DD (who didn't have much to do, yet made her presence felt)……
Pre-cap : I think after this second encounter Trishna too will join Rishbala in Padmini and Mallik giving a name to their relationship…..
Udne Ki Aasha
