First I have to say this...today my head was chakarophying (spiining) due to the number of circles that the camera was making around Divya and Raj. I can't understand why in hindi shows they make the camera go round and round.
Now coming to Raj and Divya's conversation...Divya was right in telling him that Sarita is his responsibility and that Raj should have ended whatever emotional links that he had with Divya before he decided to get married. To me she implied that one cannot travel in two boats at the same time...because then it only ends in disaster...which it did both for him and for Sarita. She told him that he was not living but survivng in this messed up situation. Then her saying that since Raj was honest towards his responsibilities to his family business then why couldn't give that same respect to Sarita?... But inorder to fulfill those famiy responsibilties Raj's life has been redused to that of someone who deals with scraps from one who used to live in the world of art...so if he just continues with this marriage because it is his responsibilty and if he refuses to put a closure to his past, then what will this marriage be reduced to? Is marriage only about responsibilities or is it much more than that? That made me wonder that Divya fulfilled all her responsibilites towards her family by looking after her siblings to the best of her ability...she probably will also fulfill her responsibilities towards Gaurav (if she marries him) but she has also not stopped loving Raj and nor has she got her closure...so is she aware that few years after marriage Gaurav's condition mght be similar to that of Sarita's? I am not saying that Divya will abuse Guarav but if she does not put a closure to her relationship with Raj, then Gaurav will have to live knowing that he is Divya's second choice and that this relationship might be a compromise...and that can eat up anyone from inside.
Regarding Raj...when his emotions are triggered he does not realise that his actions are hurting someone. Today he was squeezing Divya's arms and he did not realise that he was hurtng...and when Divya told him, he retaliated that her hurt is nothing compared to his. The same thing happened with Sarita too...he did not realise that his neglect and silence that are reactions of his hurt or anger that Divya left him are actually hurting Sarita. To him he provided her shelter and food and that is enough. Then him saying that he always felt guilty regarding the way he had treated Sarita...but then why didn't he put an end to all the abuse. If he had protested his mother would not have done it...but then seeing how his dadi treats his mother most probably he thought that this was normal and not abuse? I was shaking my head when he said that him and Sarita have one thing in their marriage and that was honesty...really? So did he tell Sarita everything before marriage and that if she marries him then he will not accept her as his wife. If they were so honest with each other then does that mean that he knows Sarita inside out? I am not saying that he has no right to be angry with Divya,...he has because Divya did play with his emtoions but all his dialogues today implied that how lost he really is. It is true that Divya had no right to emotionally manipulate him but someone had to make him stop behaving like an ostrich. I wish that Divya had done it openly and had been upfront with him as she had intially intended and did not become so guilty that she went against her nature and emotionally hoodwink Raj.
There was another character who deserves a mention today. She has a very foul mouth...she abuses her daughter-in-law but she is so caught up in her delusional world that she does not even realise that she is her own worst enemy. Divya said that she does not have any self-respect and it is true that she does not because if she had any, then she wouldn't have been behavng in such an abusive manner towards Sarita. As you have guessed I am talking about Kamla. She is ready to do anything and to fall to any level so that she gets her husband's attention. She knows that her huband is greedy and hence in order to be in his good books and get his attention she is hatching a plan to make Divya the second wife of Raj.She herself has been abused by her huband and her MIL. I do remember her MIL making fun of her and abusing her verbally when Raj did not arrive for his wedding with Sarita. It was quite telling when she mutters to herself that she has to convince Divya to marry Raj. Then when she enters Divya's room she completely ignores the fact that Divya is packing her clothes and that it implies that she is leaving. Its only when Divya blasts her that she realises that Divya is leaving. Her delusions do keep her away from reality. Then what has been done to her, Kamla wants to repeat the same thing to Sarita...the cycle of abuse does continue because maybe to them this is norma.Girls are meant to keep their husbands happy and if they can't do that then they will have to adjust sharing their husband's with whoever takes his fantasy. She knows that after Divya arrived Raj has changed and thats why she wants Divya to stay...but then being in her own delusional world she does not even think that why is it that after Divya arrived Raj is happy? Is there some link? Won't any normal people think about it. Then when she rushes to Sohanlal's room, she brokenly says that Divya will not let herself to be the second Sundari and nor will she let Sarita be the second Kamla...wonder if this is what might make her rethink or will she still continue to live in this delusional world...since this is a safe place because this is the only world that she knows of. There was one more diialgue of Kamla's that struck me today...when Divya blasted her saying that whether she is on her senses...Kamla like a child replied that why ? Because Raj's father has recently been telling her that nowadays she is speaking or talking about right things. Her world does revolve around her husband...for whom she is ready to do anything to get his attention...for whom she is ready to fall to any level and whose words she blindly follows. Truthfully Kamla is not much different from Sarita...who again to get her husband's attention is ready to fall to any level...and who too is so scared regarding loosing her husband that she is still not telling him the truth that although it is true that Divya did emotionally manipulate him but it was Sarita who brought Divya so that she can get her husband's love. I don't know whether they will show that tommorow or not, but when she was telling Divya that it is not all her fault and that it was she who brought Divya to this house...I was wondering whether she will have the courage to tell Raj this truth? It was good that she told Divya that it is not all her fault but telling Raj is something different. Now coming to Kamla...she most probably accepted Sundari because that is what Sohanlal wanted...in the same way Sarita is also says yes to her remarriage because that is what Raj wants. I know that Kamla's MIL told her that Sunadri has entered this house because she let her enter...but based on what they have showed of Sohanlal...did Sohanlal really give her the freedom to say no ? In the same way Raj has decided that he has to set things right for Sarita and his solution is to get her remarried...but did he ever think about asking Sarita for her POV?
Coming to acting...its the actress playing Kamla, Rubina and Karan for me today.
