Yesterday Sakshi says to Rajnath she had loved someone. So what happened to that. Is that she lost that love because of some reason, some mission she had to accomplish and she turned into such a cold calculating, manipulating and ruthless woman which we see her now.
Did her experience with love was that bad I mean whether she was jilted or rejected or betrayed that she lost hope in love and decided what rules the world is only power and money. She doesn't care what she does or who she manipulates as long as she can keep her power. Doesn't matter whether it is her husband or her son. Her true love has become only to herself than to anyone else. She has lost the ability to trust anyone other than herself and that's why she is so much of a control freak.
And in a way she says her mirror image in Durga. Durga is also all about herself. She is also about personal battle and personal vendetta. She also has lost the ability to truly love or care. She uses everyone as stepping stones for her mission. Though she tells she cares for Payal, Dev, Dr Dayal in the end she uses all of them for her own personal battle one way or other. We don't have to tell how many times Payal suffered because of her stupid mistake, she uses Dr Dayal as her money minting machine to accomplish her goals, Dev well nothing to tell about that she doesn't keep him in target list or team list and have let him out like a loose canon ball who is not only a danger to himself but her also.
So they are same in one way or other. Sakshi is more experienced and have traveled Durga's path and reached where she is now. Maybe because of that she is able to guess each of Durga's moves faster as she herself has been there once.
