What struck me today was Ira's comment to Anandi when she said - kabhi kabhi maan bhi lo ki tum galat thhi - ab har baar to tum sahi nahi ho sakti. !! or something to that effect.
I was blown away. Yes - this is Sanchi poison - agreed - but irrespective there is a grain of truth here is there not ?Anandi did know enough to doubt all was not well and did not share her doubt with Ira - reason chahe jo bhi ho - Ira is not wrong in saying - Et tu Brutus !Everybody has varying degrees of resilience. Shiv bounced back coz he is young, he has siblings, he still has a mom and there is no loss of anything - except the massive jolt about his biological parents.Ira is finding it harder to bounce back coz she is all of a sudden realizing she has lost a son, she may have HAD a daughter as old as Shiv - had she survived, she has been the recipient of charity (though out of love - but still charity) and she has been considered an object of pity by the two people she has always trusted - her hubby and almost sister Meenu.Ira's loss is not small - and given her nature - she can be expected to get bitter and withdrawn for a while.But she will not create drama - she has a lot of grace. Hurt pride is not easy to forget and being taken for a weakling and pitied cannot be forgiven that easily either.From now on - Ira will see all attempts at love or normalcy from all people except Sanchi - as pretence and artifice for some time.Hope they show the family sensitive to her pain and not make the audience ridicule her hurt.
