Abhay-Maithli: Unhe bas unse mohabbat thi
Happy new year everyone , here. May this year bring all the happiness, bliss and love to you. God bless everyone.
Today's episode , for a change , did not make me think of Abhay-Piya. My thoughts were only on Abhay-Maithli and the haunting story of their dark fairytale which met a very ugly end. Or maybe it is the aura and the intrigue that surrounds stories of star-crossed lovers buried in pages of fairytales and history… a beautiful princess , a handsome suitor and a love story with a tragic end.
When the caretaker narrated the story of Maithli and her mysterious love , when you saw Abhay back away from the very sight of the Pandher palace , when you saw him unleash his emotions and his anguish in the woods , at Metz' grave – you understood that it is rather unrealistic to expect Abhay just get up and fall in love with Piya. I mean just look at Abhay-Metz' connection. Abhay still hasn't been able to handle the loss of Metz. He could not bear the sight of the palace , forget stepping inside the home of his beloved. He cannot even face the memories of his dead love. The Abhay you see finding solace at Metz' grave is totally Maithli's Abhay.
Metz' love for Abhay doesn't seem any less intense. She rejected the world for Abhay as the caretaker said. I mean those lines are pretty haunting if you look at it – " Unhe Bas Unse Mohabbat Thi" ( She loved none else but him).
I do not deny the attraction , the connection , the pull between Abhay-Piya because it is there. While Piya is irrevocably in love with Abhay , he has a soft spot for her which he himself cannot comprehend and defines it differently everyday. We can't even be sure if he still sees Metz in her. It is a totally different battle inside him – he is beginning to feel for his beloved's doppelganger , no doubt but his heart still beats for Maithli. I mean, I felt so terrible for Abhay-Metz , that for a few seconds I wished that Piya was Metz' reincarnation. It was disturbing to see Abhay cower even from the memories of Metz because he never recovered from Metz' loss.
As for the rest of the episode, well, I liked the whole palace scenes and thanks to the new promo , most probably we will see Metz' sketch and not her photograph. Kabir behaved as though his favourite toy had been snatched away but he was right when he confronted Piya that if it was always Abhay , why did she date him? Piya had no answer because she could not tell him that she did that just to spite Abhay.
Now, you have Kabir on his way thinking that Piya is with the gang and the gang thinking Piya is with Kabir . So, Piya is trapped in the palace while Danish sharpens his knife and until Abhay senses that Piya needs him.It was cheat shoot but it is great that nobody saw Metz' portrait. The caretaker not recognizing Piya is open to debate because he didn't pay attention to her and Piya mostly stayed away venturing on her own with Kabir.
Maybe I am the only one but today , I wished that Abhay-Metz hadn't ended the way they did. Especially when you look at Abhay cower at the sight of the palace and when you hear that Metz had eyes and heart for none except Abhay. I am not sure if I am going to be convinced anytime soon that Abhay can love Piya as Piya and with the same devotion as he has for Metz till date.
Chaand had said once that Abhay is fooling himself. When he looks at Piya, he thinks he has a second chance …..hmmm, makes enough sense now.
Love and luck always,❤️
GOD bless everyone. 🤗
