Res 😊 Will un res later today from lappie.

But in meantime, Shru...🤗 🤗 🤗So much for dedicating this lovely piece to me amongst others. With your customary force and verve, and your sharp legal mind giving a logical sheen to the plot, it was such a pleasure to read.

More when I un res. 😊

Un-res

Absolutely enthralling, Shru. This update had everything--cool planning by Sanskaar (with help from Lakshya, though, given my deep seated dislike for him, I prefer to think of it as driven chiefly by Sanskaar); their checkmating of Ragini with some very spellbinding plotting, of laying an audit trail to prove fraud at her door. 😆 Loved that touch---Oh, the irony! 👏

We seriously have a soul sis connection going on, Sis. 🤗 🤗 I have delved a bit into Kaveri's past in my "Karna Parva" as well; but without giving away details---since I am still to update the last part---there are differences from your take which you laid out so spellbindingly here.

You made Kaveri's journey from the child Kaveri Roy, yearning for accceptance, legitimacy and a normal family---to the hardened, bitter and manipulative Kaveri Bai, so very enthralling. I particularly loved that line about how her tears had formed a wall around her heart, for her to prepare to attack and do battle from behind those fortifications. Nice imagery there, Shru.

And the climactic stretch---as Janice says in Friends 😉-- OH MY GOD!! So gut wrenchingly intense, I was literally gripping my palms tight, trying to calm my pounding heart. I always say, your updates come with a "Shru intense" brand mark, and you just proved it with this one. 👏

Again, I loved that line about how a dying person has their entire life flash before their eyes---and here, though the bullet had grazed Swara (thankfully only a flesh wound), it was Sanskaar who felt his death was nigh. This man's love...my God. So potent, so deep, so very...well...Sanskaar! SwaSan are seriously meant to be...Soulmates without a shadow of a doubt.

Shru, you know how I abhor the resurrected Kavita track, when I so wanted her to remain as just a pleasant, sweet memory of a past love in Sanskaar's mind. I therefore liked the perfunctory treatment you accorded her here---of course, sad that she had to die (please don't resurrect her in Rewarded, Shru, please---or else I just might have to come over to the UK to hold a belan over your head!! 😛), but still she is well and truly in Sanskaar's past. Just out of curiosity, in your conception of this OS series, did Kavita really love Sanskaar? Or was it more of an infatuation assiduously set aflame by her adoptive mother Kaveri? And did Sanskaar know of Kaveri's antecedents, at the time when he fell in love with Kavita (not that she was Durga Prasad's ex, but did he know that she was, to put it crudely, a kept woman, and a gangster's mistress?) Just wanted to flesh out the details in my mind, that's all.

Really enjoyed this, Shru. Looking forward to "Rewarded". Sanskaar and Swara badly need due reward, for undergoing so much pain and trauma. Can I make a special request on their behalf? 😊 Can you send them on honeymoon to Tora Bora? Or to Vienna? 😉

Hey Shruti,
I have read all three parts of the restitution series today at one go. I have no words. From part 1 to part 3 you have justified Sanskaar's actions in a more sensible way than what is shown in the show. Hats off there because truthfully this made more sense than the rubbish plot of Rashmi Sharma!

Part 1 - Resolved: My god Shruti! Your emotion portrayal of Swara in the first paragraph and then the emotional turmoil that Sanskaar is going through was so heart breaking! Seriously you have written it so beautifully! The suppressed rage taking flight, the hurt and agony for Swara, the need to control his emotions to curb Ragini! So so well written. And can I just say your last scene where Sanskaar all but follows Swara's car to make sure she has safely reached and ofcourse because his heart needs to see her was a master stroke! This part was ended so well, 'when hearts are resolute in unity to fight the odds to be together, nothing and no one can put them asunder'. So so beautiful!

Part 2 -Rectified: Finally Sanskaar takes Swara in the loop. The first part was heart wrenching. Swara's state was so so sad. Shomi is a mother who knows her daughter so well and knows what should be done with complete resolution. Loved the whole SwaSan scene, finally some spark in Swara where her anger also comes out at being so terribly treated. And the kiss! Before I forget, love you so much for making Lakshya so awesome! I really really like SanLak bromance! I am eagerly waiting for scenes where Lakshya and Sanskaar join hands to fight some negativity in the show. Thank you for that awesomeness.

Part 3 - Recompensed : The way you have portrayed Kaveri Roy was just wow! Splendid job! 👏 Absolutely stunning. So well written! Hats off. This part was an all out battle with action! The Sanskaar, Lakshya and DP joining hands, the way they took back their business and house, and the Adarsh Bhaiya twist! Such drama filled and action packed update! :D The whole pistol and Ragini finally losing all her marbles scene was just something unexpected. And the way you ended the part describing Ragini's body at the end of the stairs, I was like 'Ouch!' 😆 I have to say this is the first time I am reading a Ragini-going-mad-with-pistol scene! Not bad!

Desparately awaiting part 4 and am really sorry for not commenting earlier and for respective parts at the respective parts! Update soon and keep writing!

P.S.: Can we have a little insight in Adarsh Bhaiya's mind in the next part? Would very much like that. :)

Okay, so i am finally caught up to all three parts now.

I loved the back story that you put there. It makes so much more sense than the one we have in the show. This actually justifies the anger and jealousy driving Kaveri to hurt DP and Maheshwari's rather than the current one we are seeing.

It made some much sense since DP does seem to love AP a lot now, that his dalliance with Kaveri would have been pre marriage and that his upbringing would have made it impossible for him to accept her. Adarsh being their child make some much sense in context of the timelines. I like how you have shown Sanskar was different. He has more courage to fight against all his conservative upbringing...thought fate had different plans for him (better ones). Her anger and him moving on, her should daughter too not getting a chance to leave the life they have been stuck in, feeling more hatred in her, beautifully put through.

I liked SanLak bonding in the laksh one, but i liked DP giving them charge here even better. they have really come across as a good pair here. turning the tables around completely not just in terms of Kaveri plot, but the property matter and most importantly the way they trapped ragini through their superior business understanding, which she clearly lacks. RGM doing all fraudulent businesses and SSM owing everything - marvellously done.

But corned animal hits back worse, cause they have nothing to lose, and that is what she did, hurt the one person she is completely jealous of for having what she never could. Swara got hurt...though i am glad it was only a flesh wound...of course that wouldnt register for Sanskar. All he saw was his love limp in his arms, bleeding. And Ragini too wasnt spared in the end...will she even make it? I doubt from the weird angle you have said she fell in. tragic life and tragic death.

Looking forward to the next part when you set all things even righter and bring the two love birds finally together - never to be separated.

beautifully worded and even better for someone like me, logically made so much sense 👏 👏
