Hi everyone, this is my first actual post aside from making one about that I'm also newly watching Madhubala. I just wanted to share with you all my reason for why RK is so mean to Madhu. I feel he's mean to her because he wants to hate her, and he's angry at himself (but takes it out on her) for not being able to hate her but instead he's missing her, calling her name out and recalling all of their memories. Where he sleeps, eats, walks, just even sits, she was all over in those areas. Her perfume, her words, her every tiny habits, her cooking, her tears. It's all there, it's not something he's able to forget. He thought he would feel happy after taking revenge, but somewhere in between all the revenge game, he fell in the game himself by fooling himself. I think it was easy along the way because he was convincing himself the reason he's feeling these things (feelings for her) are normal because he just wants revenge but now in her absence he's really lacking reasons for why he's STILL feeling these things for her, because now that the revenge is over these feelings should not be there. This is his delima and confusion. He's madly in love, just like his mother said, to the extent of insanity. But he's so used to labeling his feelings as revenge and hatred. The slaps he received were in essence the best thing that ever happened to him because it changed his world upside down and brought in the starting of his transformation. From that point on everything he did and the way Madhu transformed his world, it was something they did together. Two people became one and now they are separate to realize just how one they truly are. But, in his transformation he has truly hurt Madhu in so many ways. Love isn't simple nor is it easy but it's for the brave. And when two soulmates come together, everything from their past comes to surface and they deal with so many feelings and ways to confront and heal from their past so they can get together and become one. In this process there is pain and suffering but only when two glasses are full can they pour into another. The pain brings realization to the surface and it's these realizations which are crucial for RK as a person, as Rishabh Kundra, the man before the star.
