Viii 🤗 You are incredible hon! Firstly, am humbled by the dedication. I selfishly asked you to write as I love to read it all and so I feel a bit of a fraud for accepting the dedication but loved it anyway! 😃

You always praise me for research so this time I have to say all that 😃. That story was beautiful- as soon as I started to read that bit I was transfixed, it was redolent of Aesop's Fables for me- does that make sense?! It reminded me of all I loved about reading in childhood basically and has stayed with me.

I love DP and I was overjoyed to see him assessed here and in such a lovely, human way too- 👏👏. The whole DP-Sanksaar-Kavita, then tied in so neatly with SwaSan was lovely- really made me feel like the circle completed.

The SwaSan interactions as ever were poetically beautiful and the whole thing had a balance and flow that you usually nail with all your writing. Again, sad that the elements series is ended but I have it in my favourites now to read when I want to, thank you again for it all!



Hi Shruti 🤗 🤗

I sincerely meant that dedication to you guys. As you know, I was kind of toying with the idea of writing "Air" as the 4th to finish the quartet. But I was initially planning that on Lucky, and well, you know my emotions on that loser at the moment...I've already joined your rant in your Sanskaar's letter to Lakshya post 😊

I just didn't have the energy to write an 5000 plus word OS on a character who's spineless, brainless, conscienceless and shameless. 😊 I mean, even if he had one of these aspects, I still would have...but he failed all! I didn't want to waste such a wonderful element as Air, on (Un)Lucky...

So then it seemed I would have to end it with the Trilogy (Water, Fire, Earth), but then you guys were all wonderful and motivating. 🤗 So I then decided to skip "Air" altogether and move on to the 5th element, "Space". Thanks to all you guys for that encouragement!

I am so glad you liked the back story for the Maheshwari clan, and the "bedtime tale" I had put in. That was loosely based on a folk tale I remember studying way back in school, but couldn't find anymore. So I mixed it with an Armenian poem I found with a roughly similar theme, altered with dollops of my very Indian imagination 😊

Am so happy, that you liked DP's portrayal, and the way he is a father figure to both Sansku and Swara. I wanted to make the SwaSan reunion in the climax as special as I could...coz I am bracing myself for some pain on screen now.
So I am really happy, too, that you liked that part. For some reason, the dialogues from Desolation of Smaug--- between Tauriel and Kili, about starlight I mean---popped into my head when I was imagining this scene on the terrace. I just had to reference it. Am a HUGE LOTR & Hobbit fan, what about you? 😊

Thanks again Shruti, for all your lovely comments, all through this OS series.

just just beautiful update. big hug for this my dear.🤗

i just love the way u write. the way u give a backdrop for every character is just amazing.
i can just feel what DP really is thru ur os. the connection between the bed time tale and swasan relation was too awesome..
i guess i need to use many more adjectives to describe how much i loved this os. the same is the case with the previous ones too..
swasan hayee what is there to say about them. their confession was perfect and i could visualize them.
hope we get see something like this in the show where DP understands sanskaar and his feelings and atleast ask him what he wants rather than taking his own decisions in a haste.

finally thank u so much for this series of OS.

i request u to keep writing more and more they are a real treat to read.
i wanna read an os from u on the relation of swasan after they move on or after they start a family from laksh's pov. i believe it would be treat for all of us to read swasan story and laksh redemption in ur way of writing.
please do consider my request..



Hi Rithika. 😊 Thanks so much for reading and leaving this very lovely and detailed comment. Thanks for liking my portrayal of DP's childhood and the background to his character. I wanted to show the layers and edges to his character, the way he thinks etc. Am very glad you liked the "bedtime tale" and the connection, in the end, to SwaSan. How DP manages to change the ending of the tale, after all. 😊 I do feel he is a very balanced character, and hope he will be on SwaSan's side in the serial, helping them to come together.

I am a HUGE fan of SwaSan, so it made me feel very, very happy when you said that you could visualize them, while reading the love confession scene in my OS. Thanks so much for that! 😊

I will definitely think about doing a piece on Laksh's redemption in future. But at present, I am a little too irritated at him. 😊 Will take that up, hopefully, once he improves a little bit on screen. In the meantime, I have started work on an SS, which I hope to post in November 1st week. Plan to have around 3--4 parts, I usually like to complete all and post at one go.

🤗Lux is a total waste of space (pun intended)😆so glad this didn't get centred around him. @bold- Oh my dear Lord- I was so tired yesterdaywhilstreplying and therefore I blame that on leaving out a big thing I wanted to say in my response. I am a HUGE LOTR fan! I mean total obsessive. Read them,watched the series, have the extendedexpensive versions and have watchedupteem times. When the very early film was out, I was going through a very bad phase personally and I even went alone to thecinema to watch it for arepeat watch as didn't have anyone to go with me- seriously! Also aTolkien fan. As the Hobbitfilms came out in December and I spend that time in the States with my sister and BIL, it was ourtradition to watch them in the IMAX in Orlando- incredible! The Tauriel Kili references were PERFECT for SwaSan!👏⭐️Also just wish they had made Swara a bit more Arwen? You know,giving it all up in defiance tobe with Aragorn? But maybe, someday we will see that in theshow?!
Seriously, I havethis soul connect with you and Medha for sure- so many freaky similarities- I love finding people like thatthrough these mediums😳.

Shruti...🤗Seriously, we do have this connect going on. I am such a huge fan of Tolkien and of course the LOTR and Hobbit movie series. I have the extended DVD versions of all the 6 films as well. 😊 I have actually done an entire weekend, watching the 3 Hobbit movies back to back on a Saturday, and the 3 LOTR movies back to back on Sunday. My parents used to think I was royally nuts 😊 But luckily Hubby shares my obsession (though perhaps not as bad as mine!), so we have had a wonderful time watching the films together.

Swara seriously needs to have some of the kickass fire of Arwen 😊 Arwen would sacrifice anything for Aragorn...Sigh...when, Oh when...will we see a Swara willing to do as much for Sansku as he is doing for her...😭 I am feeling upset at how the "Maa---Baba" jaap has now transitioned to "Behen---Jeeja" jaap. 😉

Well at least, the small mercy is that this jaap makes Lucky her jeeju 😉 I am waiting to see how this whole "Swara snapping off of the friendship" with Sanskaar plays out the coming week, but I am all 😕 😕 at this. Why, oh why, does Swara treat her friendship with Sanskaar---arguably the only stable thing she has going on in her life right now---as if it were a disposable facial tissue??

To tide me over this unnecessary pain inflicted by the serial drama, I am now re reading Persuasion 😉 Imagining Sansku as Captain Wentworth and Swara as Anne...

I love the way you begin the perceptions of DP and the lovely tale. And the addition of dialogues from the hobbit and IPK simply made the tale superb.
enjoyed a lot reading quartet.👏
Continue writing.


Thanks very much Javeria 😊. Glad you liked the back story for DP as well as the previous 3 installments in this "Elements" quartet.

I am a HUGE fan of the LOTR and Hobbit series, and wanted to reference the Kili--Tauriel dialogues for the moonlit terrace scene between SwaSan, in the climax 😊. Glad you liked it.

Also, IPK used to be my favorite serial back then, so I wanted to use that "main tumhe kha thodi jaunga " dialogue 😊. Really fits SwaSan, right ?😉
