Rudra in all his rough edged and multifaceted glory is truly a sight to behold.
A patriotic army officer, smart, aggressive, honest and driven.. A man taught to be ruthless when push comes to shove. A man capable of cruelty yet in possession of a protective streak that runs a mile wide. A man filled with so much anger and self loathing, one who believes there is no salvation in sight. A man who only knows how to veil his affection for his father by way of little barbs embedded in their daily conversation. (And the father? He gives as good as he gets😆) A man capable of showing great tenderness and that the hands that wield a weapon are capable of showing gentleness too. A man afraid of loosing the only family ( The Army) which has shown him equal devotion. A man so sensual... So so sensual.
We know his mother left when he was child. We've seen the flash backs which have succeeded in leaving us with a view of his life in three parts. Life with a loving mother. Life spent in a vacuum waiting, hoping for her return. Life after that little hope was extinguished.
We've seen Rudra, Dilsher Ranawats BSD officer, Jallad son. But when he crossed paths with his mother today I think It finally, finally sunk in that he has a mother too. That he had once been the apple of that very mothers eye.. A thin curtain of rain and a fogged glass couldn't hide that tug of recognition. The eyes... the very eyes he was blessed (cursed?) with held him captivated. Her voice jogged long suppressed memories and in a daze, despite only moments ago reprimanding Aman for being overly soft, he wordlessly let her go. ( Brings to mind, "A man bows his head only before three women...")
How different would this man have been had she not left?
The Thakurain probably cannot fathom that her son could be the man standing in front of. After all when she left, it was a boy who still viewed the world around him in innocent wonder, that she left behind.
The world is a cruel place. She should've known better.
Truly curious to know why she left. Cannot wait for more scenes with the two of them. There's just something about a man and his mother that tugs at my heart strings ( Maybe it's me?😆)
How can i not mention
That hot HOT scene with Rudra and Paro. It felt like someone drop kicked my heart ( stomach and everything else) straight into oblivion when his face descended into the crook of her neck, lips barely a breath away from sensitive skin. Mausam chachi had a problem with the chudiyan? She would have shit ambrick if she glimpsed that scene then.😆
On Paro: Love that she is willing to stand her ground. She showed him evidence of his rough handling of her wrist. And i was really giggling when he sought to include her in his plans to foil chachi like he would an ally, how sure he was of her cooperation like before. Did he truly think Paro would let all those innuendos slide? Bam! She said she'd do the exact opposite of what he wanted and reduced him to an adorable "Kya" yet again.
