Why Sarita's presence changed Abhi and Vikrant's life

amazing post👏 the lyrics of Yeh Dil Hai are so wonderful and implies so much..this song touches your heart and that is why I love it so much on ViSa..as you said Vikrant and Abhi both have been living a life too void of affection and emotions..Sarita is changing all that..Like when you saw Vikrant being pleased by simply eating hot parantha after such a long time as pointed out by him, it just brought out his vulnerability..how he has been missing on having care and concern for him by someone..Abhi atleast had him to share his feelings and emotions but he did not had anyone..that is why the rough exterior..Did you notice after that breakfast Abhi commented so extra-cheerfully that his dad was sooo happy...it shows how even Abhi could feel lack of happiness in his dad's life even though when he is so little..even in the scene where Vikrant is working and Sarita is teaching lines for the play to Abhi,you see that Vikrant realizes his coffee is finished when he was wanting more and before he could even ask you see Sarita saying that she will bring him coffee which left him so happy as he for the first time in years has someone looking after his needs..these small gestures of care and concern are enough for him to feel about Sarita differently.. While Sarita is filling the blank spaces in Vikrant-Abhi's life , by giving her the authority to do so, they are bringing new happiness in her life..She was fulfilling her responsibilities all these 10 years but had no rights or authority!! With Vikrant and Abhi she is getting loved and cared back for her love and affection..she is given full rights of a mother and is showing authority as a wife also..It is well just the start..but start of something beautiful😃

Thanks for liking my post, guys.

@MistiofMistz you wouldn't believe, I was just wondering that too...Maybe what she felt for Raj was partly due to social conditioning that one must love one's spouse. She loved him with her head not her heart? I don't know, but I'd love it if the CVs explored this point.

For a long time, father and son were missing the touch and warmth of a woman - the kindness and deep love that only a woman can provide. Even Vandana wasn't around, so Abhi grew up lonely as Vikrant immersed himself in his work which is (probably) male-dominated too.

Sarita is a breath of fresh air in their lives and has enveloped them both in her warmth. That's why Vikrant is falling for her so fast. The part of "Yeh Dil Hai" that was playing when she was disentangling herself was quite significant:

Bataaon kya andheron mein yun kat rahi thi zindagi kaisi

Magar ab hai zindagi mein meri roshni ek zindagi jaisi

Un raahon par chaldenge hum aap raahein jo dikhlayein hamein

he was living in darkness

but now there is a light in his life

and he is willing to follow her down whichever path she shows him.

Vikrant, the successful businessman, who makes his own rules and leads people, is beginning to surrender to her emotionally. (Of course credit goes to Sarita for knowing how to get him to do exactly what she wants: sometimes by smiling at him, sometimes shouting at him.)

Isn't that what we're seeing? One of Sarita's aims was to get him to be more emotionally and practically involved in bringing up Abhi, not leaving him to be cared for by servants. Now he looks forward to spending more time with Abhi and expressing his love. For me, that's been the most beautiful part of this story, how she's really binding all 3 of them together into a close unit.

I think this experience is also therapeutic for Sarita because she is healing herself as she heals them. By filling the void in their lives with love, hope, and dreams of a wonderful future, she is also bringing happiness into her own heart and mind. The 10 years of depression she suffered while married to Raj did teach her to look at the positives in life, and I'm glad she's not wasting her time pining or moping over her 'lost love'.
