Thoughts after watching yesterday's episode.
I am again unable to understand Nandini. The very pertinent questions that Mauli asked her (without resorting to abuse or name calling) failed to make any impact on her. Of course there was momentary regret, but it never made any impact. But a bunch of stranger women mudslinging at her made her want to push Kunal away. Now , I am not undermining her trauma, because that shaming was nothing but plain abuse in full public view and it is bound to affect even those who haven't really done anything wrong. So maybe her reacting to Kunal in that way, was just something that she did in trauma. And the situation was probably created , so that Kunal can mouth those controversial lines - humara pyaar ganda nahi hai.. Galat Nahin.. Etc.
But what still irks me is that the words of those women who called her a homewrecker and worse made her feel guilty and dirty. But why does she not feel guilty and dirty when she reflects upon her own actions. She cheated her best friend who has always wanted the best for her, who went out of her way to make her life comfortable and safe, knowing that Kunal meant the world to her. How is it that Mauli's questions never affected her to the point of wanting to push Kunal away??
When Kunal first confessed his love to her, the first thing that I actually expected, rather wanted her to ask was, "Mauli ka kya? But the silence between them on that subject stretched on forever. That coffee shop convo made us feel as though they knew and have accepted that they will have to hurt Mauli, but then later she gets shocked when Mauli breaks all ties with her. And now Kunal has made a promise to her and will probably in today's episode tell her about Rajdeep signing the divorce papers. Will she then, at least out of curiosity, ask him what will happen to his marriage?
I just find this so hard to stomach. It makes me feel as though she is unable to asses a situation on her own and that she is still not in a state of mind to have a healthy relationship. Understanding how her actions and decisions can affect the people around her is still not her cup of tea. And since she pretty much does not have a life outside of this relationship, we really don't know what her state of mind is or how effectively she can manage life outside of her relationship with Kunal. Hell, we don't even know whether her relationship with even Kunal is healthy or not? They hardly talk and whenever they do she is very accepting of things he says and does. So far, her rejecting Rajdeep and his abuse is the only thing that can be called as an improvement in her character. Baaki, I just cannot understand her.
Now, isn't it odd that Deeda didn't suffer a stroke hearing about her grandson's infidelity? But the D' word, tauba tauba is the end of the world Half of the marriages on Indian telly happen or survive because of this emotional blackmailling. And I just happened to read on the forum that Kunal will continue meeting with Nandini. So no going away??? I hope Mauli uses her brain cells and get out of this marriage before it shatters her self-esteem completely. She may not be able to get over him easily, but she can at least save her dignity.
And I think I agree with mango_pudding about Kunal being the step son of Yamini. She was struggling not to burst out when Dida was speaking to Mauli.
Frankly, she is the most complicated character that I have come across so far.
We can also safely say that though the friendship was important to her, it was not as important as it was to Mauli. Also, if you look at her, there is no one that she could actually discuss her relationship with. The only person is Kunal and as soon as, she starts getting a doubt he is there to pull back or Rajdeep is there to create a new fiasco.
I think the first time Mauli confronted her, Mauli was just asking question and Nandini really did not have answers for her but the second time, Mauli used a lot of harsh words which should have impacted her a lot but for the timing of it. Immediately, after that she finds out Kunal is missing and her whole focus shift only to him similar to what happened yesterday with Kunal.
I would have really liked the voices from yesterday to mix with Mauil's but that was miss on CV's part I think.
I sometimes feel that she has a tunnel vision where in one tunnel she sees only Kunal and their love and the other she sees only Mauli and the friendship. She does not want to mix those up but as soon as that happens, her world blows up literally because it always connected with an emotional trauma and Kunal is there to save her.
I also think, whole her life and also with Rajdeep she has become very dependent in her decision making and also she got used to seeing what she is shown rather than what is in view. So, if Kunal says, their relationship is perfect, she thinks that. If those women, say she is bad, she believes it.
I think she really need neutral third person which is not Kunal, Rajdeep or these horrible people who will give her a different perspective, so that she can see for herself the whole view right from Mauli to kunal and every one in between and then help her make a decision based on that or at least she how her actions have impacted someone else.
I do not doubt that she loves Kunal but I seriously feel she needs to go away if she want live an healthy emotional life.
