Aarti and Yash are swimming against the tide
What do I mean by that?
They (AarYa) are doing the opposite of what most people want to do.
In this case AarYa want to stop continuing the error that Yash has been unwittingly perpetrating on G3 and Akaash for 31 years.
Most people in their situation would do as SP advised - but AarYa have a more developed conscience and want to do what is morally and ethically right. They realize this is their duty solely and have no expectations from others - indicated by their unilateral decision to carry an empty suitcase to the tambu instead of one filled with one crore rupees and legal documents.
There are two kinds of people (who shape the future) in this world: those who are hopelessly pessimistic and those who are very optimistic.
The pessimists (G3, 2Ps, SP, Bua) say: 'It won't work. It is fraught with problems that are insurmountable'. The optimists (AarYa) feel that "if we don't change things, who will? It's up to us."
The middle lack the guts to venture and wait till the timing is right. The pessimists may shift to the middle. The optimist may question his/her decisions in a moment of self-doubt under severe pressure but he/she is not playing God or acting mahaan. This idea of playing God came about in the middle ages where they punished those said the earth rotates around the sun, man can make an instrument which will enable him to fly, etc.
People like AarYa who swim against the tide - have no textbook or map to follow. They are blazing a trail and as many PVians have rightly said cannot expect support or sympathy. And this is precisely why Aarti could not seek help from Panky or Prateek re: Ak's Moonlite Bar fiasco!!
I said they are swimming against the tide and what is the tide that AarYa may face?
People who walk the ethical/spiritual path would say one faces the tide of temptation. In AarYa's case it is G3's love and unquestioned understanding, gratitude from AkIsh, expectation of some decent behavior from Ak, understanding from Pankaj, and many, many setbacks and disappointments before they achieve their goal. Perhaps they may die trying to achieve it - but that is of little consequence if in the process they can sleep with a quiet and peacefull heart!!!
