The hands you take and the hands you leave Part 63-Updated page 149 - Page 61

I am lucky to get to work from home at times and today especially good I am working from home. I cried when 'abhi mujh mein kahin' played. The child Ladoo is such a good actor.

There is a book called 'Love Languages'. It says everyone has a way we perceive and receive love. The main are words of affirmation (compliments), quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service and touch. Using this book I can say the way Anami perceives love especially a mother's love is through touch and acts of service especially like the doing the braids and cooking. So far only Dadi and Sudha have done that. Satrupa has done none of that. She is the tea pouring type, British style, not the adrak chai making type. Dadi is also royalty, but to bond with Anami she will drink tea in what a person of her class would consider unsophisticated. She comes down to Anami's level to bond. Satrupa does not. She does not do anything to bond, but expects Anami to call her mom. She is just cold with her. Anami is not a Vatsalya replacement. She is a different person, so Satrupa should try to bond a little. If she showed a little of what she shared with Vatsalya perhaps Anami will melt.

I can never justify sacrificing a child or bringing a child in into the LM mess. I don't care what circumstances. To use a child is abhorrent. Satrupa has killed before, there are ways to get rid of Sudha. If they play their cards right they can make Pujan the killer and send him to jail. That is why I hope Anami never calls Satrupa mother. Because to me the LM bahu has to die before Satrupa can be mom. Panditayen deserves to be called Mom.

The beauty of this show is the acting. Even when there is hardly any dialog, the acting is so good that they say so much with their eyes and body. The scene between Sudha and Satrupa in the courtyard is such. I hate the LM Bahu Avatar of Satrupa, but when she does the walk I become fida over that. I also loved the color of Satrupa's blouse especially and sari. The blouse was purple mixed with blue. Purple is the color of royalty and blue is poison ? I don't know. Satrupa went to Benaras to get Anami in a white car. This time its a black Mercedes cross over. But looks like what is used as a hearse in the US. Symbolic ?

I'll be back to respond to some posts. Very interesting discussion everyone. But it is daytime here and work calls.

Anami, at the end of the day, is doing everything she can to get back at Satrupa for wrenching her from her family and bringing her to LM. She's doing everything for Vatsalya and to get him justice. She doesn't give a damn about LM, Royal Steels, or anything else. And so her each move is keeping that in mind.

Now what better way to hit back at Satrupa then to bring in Sudha, the other woman. It's cruel, but as they say, everything is fair in love and war. Anami is doing exactly that.

On the other hand, even in her blind attacks, she's made many right steps. If she hadn't, then would Vikram work with Satrupa to bring Anami to her senses? He always wanted Avdhoot as heir, but he finally gave Anami a chance and saw potential in her. During Durga Puja when Anami "saved" Durga Maa, he was proud of her. He cleared her path. He was angry at Anami when she brought Sudha, but he understood that she could be heir if taught well and thus supports Satrupa in her moves. Similarly, Baldev is no longer calling her "illegitimate child" or hating on her. Yeah he doesn't love her or support her, but he isn't angry at her. Else when she was playing Vatsalya's guitar with Narottam, he would have taunted Satrupa, fought with Anami, and probably said stuff that he would later regret. But nothing of that sort happened. So somewhere, in her blind rage, Anami is making steps in the right direction.

Ladoo is an innocent child and bringing him into this LM chakvrayvuh is entirely wrong on Satrupa, but somewhere I feel that even then she may not be all wrong. In a way she did exactly what Anami did, but unlike Anami, she won't let anything happen to Ladoo. Sudha will attempt to use even Ladoo against LM and Anami, but in the process will go to far. That's when Satrupa will step in as a shield. Satrupa will die. That much is evident. Now it remains to be seen if she will die while protecting Ladoo or while finally giving it back to Sudha and destroying Sudha's plans once and for all.

@Shreya Anami sees in black and white, that's her only and major problem. She doesnt understand grey enough. The simple life in benaras didnt make her understand that. Panditayan told if you are right dont bend, if you are wrong dont fight. What if you are right and wrong. Sometimes more wrong than right, sometimes more right than wrong. What will you do. This is where you need to sit and talk, shake hands and make deals. Deal is not just business, in personal relation also it shows mutual respect. The whole point is making Anami understand the greys of life, colors of life, which is not just black and white. Though she talks about colors she is yet to experience them completely. As colors are not only positive, they are negative too.
