One sentence, in the midst of the chaos, stood out...said by KakuSa Daanveer...Mhare andar ka DARR shaant ho!!
Fear...was the key!! He did not say that he trusted her, there was no disbelief on his face. No defense for his wife of decades. No siree...for him it was all about fear. The fear he had had for years. A man who lives with a woman for soo long more or less knows what she is all about. And his sentence today, says it all. He was scared that the worst had finally come true. He was scared that his wife had finally done what he was always afraid of. He knew how immoral, utterly inhuman, callous and self centered a woman, she was. And he also guessed that she could go to any limits, any extent, to grab what she desired.
Not for him the arguments, the standing staunchly by her side, unlike Rudra. Not for him the quiet acquiescence of Samrat, no, for him it was a silent prayer, a desperate hope, that she had not done anything wrong in her quest for power. The desolate wish that she was not playing with innocent lives of his own family. The day she will be proved guilty, this man, will have no doubts and will be the first to believe, cause unlike her kids and their spouses and the rest of the civilized world, he knows Mohini, and also what she is capable of.
We saw the contrast between three couples today!! The one that was married the longest, the man had zero faith, and fear in his heart. A marriage that stayed together may be due to societal and familial upbringing and culture. A marriage based on dominance on one side and endurance on the other.
The second married for less no. of years, yet their equation remained in the doldrums. The man here unable to make up his mind whether he was on his mother's side or his wife's. The man who still hasn't learnt how to be a husband or how to be a son, and worst of all how to be a strong human being. A union based on compromises. Two timid and weak souls do not make a strong marriage. There is so called love, yet it has its limitations!! Fear is here too, but under a different cover. Darr indeed !!
And the last, with the least number of days under its belt, was the strongest!! A marriage under duress, apparently between an uncaring man and a devoted wife, yet, today was an eye opener. He trusts her implicitly, and lets no one disrespect her. Standing firm by her side, staunchly and attentively, lending his unwavering support, to a woman who fights a battle for him with his own family. The woman he declares he despises, yet will go to the ends of the earth to protect her and her dignity. And she stands proud and tall and fierce to protect the man she loves. She can battle the whole world and gods above for her man!! Apparently, its love less!! Yet their bond is unbreakable!!
Which marriage is a true union of souls?? You decide.
My heart goes out to the likes of KakuSa and Maithili today...!! Years of matrimony, yet unending loneliness ...!!
