Lovely! That particular promo was what hooked me! It was so chilling seeing all those women surround her almost like vultures...



That tradition is actually practiced. It gives me shivers and I cannot imagine what the widow must go through.

Thank you for the comment.

I have to ask... how come black is not the color you chose for this or white? Strictly curious not a critique. I always associate black or white with widows so I just wondered.

The story itself is fantastic. Really brings her terrified and confused state of mind into clarity.



I am sorry Sherry. I should have explained it before hand. But I was sleepy last night and forgot to add it.

Rajasthani Rajput widows wear indigo/dark blue... I added in a video to clarify.

Thanks for the comment!

Sheer brilliance. I remember watching the first promo. Over and over again. Till I had memorized it all. You ve captured it's raw earthy intensity. If only the cvs had stuck to their original story. And kept Paro in custody . I miss the rangrasiya of those days.

@Sherry - Rajput widows wear indigo or dark blue.



Yeah.. that promo will stay with me forever. It was so hauntingly beautiful and soul tearing. I miss that RR too. Lets hope we get enough TRPs so that the story that needed to be told, gets told. :)

omg...the first promo played out in my mind while reading this..it would have been the situation if paro would have returned back to birpur ...cant even think abt it...just need a clarification...is indigo is the color for widows in rajastan...even mamisa is wearing it always except for few occasions



yeah that's what inspired this drabble. The first promo.

And indigo/dark blue is the color of widows in Rajasthani rajput women.

On special occasions, they are granted to wear pastels.. But no jewelry.

Indigo is the colour of dead / sorrow? Hmmm never thought so... Anyways, this is amazing stuff. Had this widow thing really played out in RR, this would be the best way, Paro seeing her future as a widow through another's similar fate.

Wow red is coming 😃



Indigo isn't the color of sorrow. But it is the colors widows wear in Rajasthan. I clarified that in the A/N and even attached a video.


Yeah, red is coming! I am scared!

wow..tat was nice...choosing Indigo to portray widow is unconventional..but the way Paro got scared of that scenario was nicely written..

this track was not explored properly in the show and the fear of going back to live a despondent life would have been a better reason for Paro to stay in the haveli..Paro..being the village girl that she is..is petrified of leading such a life..

very well written.. 😊



Actually indigo is the color there. It wasn't known to many people, as now I am realizing. I should have clarified.

Exactly. The orthodox Rajput households don't even allow widows to step out of the house.. Dont let them enjoy festivals and such...

What would have befallen on Paro, had she returned to Birpur.. That could have been explored..

But ohh well.
