Something with contractual issues here. The same CVs who show Danny - kusum so close cant do this to Saras n Kumud. So dont blame CVs. But we might get something tomorrow.
Happy ji,
They dont have the creativity to show closure and handling of such situations. I said long time back(and you did too) that they are putting onus on Saras. Now LN is the wronged one and Saras has to come around. Simple and simplistic.
But that said the letter LN wrote to Saras might have some words of apology . Either way I have to see the journey of this man. Thats why I am here.
U think?
Consider this scenario...you and your spouse are the eldest in both the families...you have your own demons to battle regarding your dad...you feel you are responsible somehow for this state of affairs...you showed attitude causing your dad to leave and get into this accident...you feel enormously guilty for the treatment you meted out to the person who you love deeply but wont admit (forget the logic for the moment about who is to be blamed first...net net you feel you are responsible)...you are shit scared because you dont know if he will survive...and the guilt is piling on because you caused this...you are shit scared because if he does not survive you are left with the vacuum of the issue remaining unresolved for eternity...because of you...In the middle of all this the entire family is around...knowing you are the reason it has come to this ..maybe..and worried...and somehow you got to keep it all together...and not break down...you have got to lead this group to the other side...
you know you have your love with you in this through thick or thin...so do you really need a demonstration of care and concern?...Why do you need a reaffirmation that she cares?..that's a given.
Even considering the social mileu...I do not think this calls for hugging, holding hands etc in public and in front of family...especially when its not yet the end...I have not seen it in many such family gatherings in cases of people admitted in hospitals...the younger couples (compared to the elder senior couples / family) generally tend to push thier own feelings lower in the priority and focus on the issue at hand...Typically there is a division of labor...one part of the couple manages the hospital environment and the other manages the sundry relatives & logistics...
Net Net ..After all they have been through, saras does not need a physical affirmation of kumud's concern ...he KNOWs that she is equally concerned...
And actually it works the opposite way...he draws strength knowing shes around...but not in his face demonstrating concern...and that she's running interference with the rest while he sorts out his mess in his head and comes to terms with how to deal with this going forward...
And kumud is giving him the space to figure this out first at his level...That's maturity..
I just saw this scene basis the inputs on CB...and I felt it was actually good...no melodrama...more realistic...and actually showing the deep bond these two share...they now dont need to spell it out or hug or some such...these are low level signals...they have gone beyond...
I particularly liked the depiction in the end scene...where kumud knows he feels guily he screwed up (even though inadvertently) and trying to come to terms... saras knows that kumud knows that he feels guilty he screwed up (even though inadvertently) and is trying to come to terms...and yet there is no 'I told you' so from her side...and his (implicit) admission of the same through the sub-text in his first response when she comes next to him..."Yeah...You are right...I feel screwed up...But I am trying to work it out"... And the entire exchange is with both showing utmost respect to the others POV...
Only great actors like GR & JW can pull this through without this degenerating into a me-too scene...
