Tunay he hasna sakiya
Tunay hi ki anank num
Sab kuch bhulao do magar tum
Yeh yad rakhna sanam
Hongay juda na hum
First of all breathe fandom or eat ice-cream or have a cookie we all need it after the episode. The episode was heartbreaking hats off to Sidhant, Jasmine and Zain's acting. I was angry at Yuvi, frustrated with Kunj and felt sad for Twinkle.
Kunj loves Twinkle we all know he does but at this point he loves his family more. Kunj was always shown to be a family oriented person. Even in his relationship with Alisha his family was the problem. I remember in their date scene Alisha accused him that always gives his family priority over her. The thing is you can't isolate people from there family at least most of the people who come from the sub continent know how important family is for us. Most marriages have problems these days because people fail to understand that we have more than one role. A guy is first a son, then a brother and then he becomes a husband and son in law. Similarly a girl is a daughter, sister a wife and a daughter in law. All these roles overlap. Where the fault occurs is that we sometimes fail to give equal respect to every relationship and start expecting a lot. Mothers want their son's full affection and attention after marriage and most of them do have problems when this affection is shared with his wife. Usha is a typical mother in law who at multiple occasions has voiced the fact that she doesn't like sharing her son. The solution to this problem is if we adapt to the changes that marriage brings and give both the guy and the girl the chance to respect each relationship.
Kunj at this point is torn between his wife and mother. You can see clearly that in the whole Twinkle, Usha and Bebe scene he is conflicted between his mind and his heart. At one end is his mother who is so emotionally distressed that she is threatening to kill herself and the other end is his wife who is silently looking at him waiting to say something. However in order to maintain the sanctity of both relationships he chooses to remain quiet. If he speaks up and stops Twinkle and ask her to stay his mother will feel bad and if he specifically asks Twinkle to leave she will feel bad. I loved how Twinkle decided to leave taking the choice out of his hands. She was the one who removes the knife from Usha's hand and says how much Kunj needs Usha. She puts her own feelings on the back burner and shows Kunj that she knows and is aware that his mother comes first. She considers herself a part of their family. Sadly Kunj still doesn't consider her a part of his family.Sid's expression soften in this scene and you can see the love in his eyes he might be silent and trying to suppress his feelings but they are still their. This is further portrayed in the bedroom scene. Kunj at this point is devastated. He is at the verge of loosing his father who he had a fractured relationship with. His mother is going crazy with worry and everyone is pointing fingers at his wife. Kunj doesn't even for a second think that Twinkle leaked the pictures he knows she is childish but she is not that disgusting. He is angry at her for lying to him. Kunj believes that if she would have told him the situation wouldn't have gotten out of hand. So beside Twinj, Olicity from arrow is my ultimate otp I just love that couple. Ironically they are facing the same problem right now. Felicity the girl is angry at Oliver because he didn't tell her the truth and she finds out on her own. What she says to Oliver clearly depicts Kunj's state of mind right now.
"You are the only person on this planet who considers the truth to be complicated.When were you planning on telling me the truth? If you loved me if you trusted me telling me wouldn't be such a burden it would be a relief but you don't trust me and you never will"
She says that in the heat of the moment as soon as she finds out at that point she is so consumed by his betrayal that she refuses to acknowledge his feelings or listen to his point of view. Similarly Kunj is so hurt by the fact that Twinkle didn't tell him that in his anger he refuses to acknowledge the sacrifices she made to safeguard the truth. He believes that removing her clothes or pictures would somehow remove the conflicted feelings from his heart as well. Even though she is not physically present in his room she is definitely present in his heart and no matter how hard he or Yuvi tries he can't remove her from there.
Twinkle my poor baby girl. I feel like hugging you and telling you that everything will be all right. Ja's acting in the car scene really broke my heart she had so much faith that he would come back for her but he doesn't. I think at that point she realizes how this time she is all alone. Twinkle did everything for the right reasons but she was too naive and innocent to think that the matter was dealt with.
It was an emotional episode but I am amazed to see such depth and realism in an Indian soap opera. We need to stop putting fictional characters on a pedestal and expect them to be perfect. Every human being is flawed and Kunj and Twinkle's flaws are what makes them more relatable. Those calling for divorce should understand that marriage is not a bed of roses heck even roses have thorns. Real world relationships are messy so why do we expect fictional relationships to be perfect? Twinj will come out stronger at the end of this track.
