Back again with the thoughts of my impatient brain
Why was Kabir so convincing in the scene with Tarini where he said that he had told Ananya whatever he knew? I still cannot get over that scene even after he has confessed being an eye-witness to SK's murder. For the first time I actually did not apply my favourite House's (from House MD) quote that everybody lies' in relation to Kabir because it was nearly impossible to doubt him then. But, I am glad that Kabir Sharma turned out to be as human as each one of us and what he did in the past in relation to SK's case is wholly pragmatic.
So the makers purposefully made us believe that Kabir came clean by telling Ananya whatever he knew about the case through his genuine expressions and then by not bringing up SK's name for a while (so that we don't get to see Kabir's burdened look) and solely focussed on KaYa's love story. I don't blame them for this because in a way it was necessary on their part for making the audience bond with KaYa. Had they shown us that Kabir is hiding something from Ananya in relation to SK then right from the start most of us would have questioned his love for Ananya and his actions with respect to their relationship. Well, they did succeed to some extent but not entirely because we can see some people believing that he could have told her the truth because it is so simple and that Ananya would have understood.
If I think logically then yes he should have told her the entire truth but I believe in the fact that all our decisions/thoughts/actions are governed by our emotions are not logic. In fact even with what we believe are logical decisions, the very point of choice is arguably always based on emotion. Same is for Kabir as well he is no different than us (logical reasoning made him feel burdened because his conscience kept reminding that he is doing wrong but his emotions made him helpless). So I am judging his actions based on his emotional situation when the suicide revelation' was made and later; and I can understand what made him do so.
When Kabir got to know about Ananya being SK's daughter during the baaghi case he was no more just the EIC of KKN for her but someone she looked up to in her life because of his support to her father. Also, by that time he was not familiar with his feelings but we all feel that he had already fallen for her. I would like to believe that he went to meet Ananya with the intention of telling her the entire truth but it was way too hard for him to speak and when Ananya assumed it to be a suicide he did not correct her and left when asked because of a couple of reasons (realistic too) .
- Firstly, I know that it is way too hard for most of the people to accept their blemish in front of another person who sees you with a high regard.
- And the second barrier that stopped him from telling the entire truth was his unnamed feelings for Ananya that made him on the spur of the moment (reflexively I mean) just care for her more than anything else and the fear for her safety being well aware of the fact that she'll pursue the case after knowing the truth and that danger involved is inevitable.
It would have been certainly been easier for him to tell the entire truth when he handed over SK's purse to Ananya but certainly more difficult after the realization of his love and getting into a relationship with Ananya. Do I need to give reasons for this? Haven't we all witnessed enough to know how much Ananya's emotional and physical well-being matters to him?
Yes he lied! He made a mistake! Everyone does!
Had he been forced to lie by due to some external stimulus then his actions would have been justified to most of us? So, why can't we accept that his action of hiding was internalized? Isn't that what happens in reality too? At one point we all act selfish!
PS:
would have certainly been a happier if Kabir had already started re-working on SK's case after knowing that he is Ananya's father rather than yesterday! Would loved to see a good paced story now! If the friction between KaYa is bound to continue then I would love to see them occupied with SK's case individually (and later coming together professionally) rather than seeing umpteen scenes where Kabir patiently tries to talk to Ananya while she ignores him! Badly need some professional thrills now!
And regarding Ananya listening to Kabir..it should come out naturally on her part when her anger abates or a bit later..I don't want to see her trust rebuilding on Kabir because of his another heroic act or any interference from a third party again!
P.P.S : What happened to SK's dead body 😕? Don't tell me it vanished into thin air while falling from the cliff 😆
