awesome post. love reading yours and mera's interpretation of the days' events. each style so unique yet so enthralling and absorbing. Kudos. 👏I am now become an addict of these posts - you capture the characters emotions and share hidden symbolism so engagingly that is food for my mind and soul.😃
Thank You, Hope ...part of the credit goes to the exemplary acting by the cast ...they draw your emotions out and quite naturally I pour it out here..😃
I dont have much to add and I apologize in advance as most of this post is the same one that I posted on mera's thread but I posted here to because I felt it applied.
I have not been posting much for the last few days because I am really savouring every moment of this ride and I am afraid too much analysis on my part will mess with my taste buds but as you and mera have taken the time to give us such a beautiful rendition of the plot, I thought the least we can do is post a quick comment, eh?😃
yesterday was another gripping epi, it showed so many many things.
let's start with my favourite - krishna.
wow, not a victim of Angad's revenge and a string of destructive choices (like pratigya) yet a victim of her suspicion and unwarranted disdain. Arhaan has captured such a spectrum of emotions in sucha grandiose manner that it is easy to salivate over and consume but difficult to digest😃. he started of being shocked and dejected, moved to being hurt, hid that hurt with his only natural defense - anger, yet the veneer of his seemingly controlled anger is not sufficient to envelope the hurt and it seeps through, visible with every breathe, every subtle twitch of hisjaw, he implodes with pain (this is way worse than exploding because the bottling up of these potent emotions with no relief valve in sight will only destroy not heal), he is so consummed by this deepset dejection and disillusionment that he ends up in a frozen trance like state where his robotic routine functions act as a much needed distraction. we see him in a trance at the beginning of yesterday's epi yet as you have so aptly said dawn has broken.
yesterday, there was progression in his pain.
isn't it so true about the old adage. As you sow, so shall u reap. Pratigya unintentionally and through her loving compassion towards kesar and ganti dadi created two silent yet extremely strong allies in that house. and while they cannot provide physical support (for that she has krishna) - in her darkest hour they have provided her invisible support, assistance and solace.👍🏼
krishna has withdrawn very far inside. words - no matter how simple or clear - do not reach the place where he has withdrawn, only silent solace and compassion from trusted people can reach him now. pratigya is the one he trusts the least right now. he is the way that he is because his world - his image of his love, his internal belief system and his familial support structure- is off its axis.
he needs to release that hurt rather than contain it, so that he can move on. ghanti dadi is the perfect yet the most unsuspecting ally and support he could have found. her unassuming nature and her silent strength caused him to relax, share his pain and start a healing process for himself.👏. seeing a strong person like Krishna in a fetal position is gutwrenching.
but unfortunately Hope, Ghanti Dadi's understanding will not help him in coping up with 3 Master blaster's who are well versed in hitting a man below the belt...an d a weak Krishna is going to break ...unless he escapes back to that Hills again...that place where he made the decision for SR ...it seems that place calms him down and brings out the decisive and dominant part of him...a sorely needed trait at this hour
I see some change in Pratigya, she still says dekho and stuff. but her tone has changed. her words are not accompanied with haughtiness and disdain but with desperation and a need for communication and understanding. while it is a little to late for Krishna, getting in touch with these humbler emotions will help her grow from a girl to a woman. kesar will be the perfect guide on her exploration as a woman. kesar is a very strong woman - that is why without any familial support (unlike pratigya) she has survived physical and emotional abuse from husband and in-laws. 👏👏👏
think I have said a lot. this weeks SBS segments seem like the story is twisting and turning again. but for now I do not want to speculate. going back to my seat in the krishna train.😃😃

Ciao, Hope🤗
