Hey Nidhi
Well you must be surprised to see me but yes I am here. And I am sorry for commenting on this post when this should have gone to 15th September's post. Too lazy I am
I would have been silently stalking like always but then sometimes it is important to voice out as well.
You are best reviewer and there is no denying there and I have always agreed with your reviews.
However i beg to differ at one point today.
Sorry in advance and no bashing please just putting forward my point.
I have been reading so much about Ishita's reaction about miscarriage being unjustified. Yes it is unjustified but somewhere I feel it is justified as well.
What I feel is that it is not well portrayed. If they really wanted to show it this way then they surely needed a little more build up and a few scenes that included Ishita's inner thoughts.
I don't know if right or wrong but I have something to say.
Suppose if it was that Ishita had medical issues and then taunted as barren all her life and so on and marrying Raman, conceiving a baby and then losing it then what she is behaving today would have been wrong but only if she didn't had Ruhi and Adi.
Today the things are different. She had married Raman for Ruhi and then the love bloomed. Ruhi was always there and Adi too came in later. She now has 2 kids and had no hopes or rather wishes to have another baby. She believes it and knows it and wants everyone else to accept it as well that she is a complete woman with 2 kids and does not need a 3rd one to stamp her completeness.
On the marriage anniversary as well, she was happy about Raman's gesture but never thought of having a baby.
We agree or not but CVs have majorly focused on Ishita and Ruhi rather than Ishita and Raman. It is all Ruhi ke liye for them.
Undoubtedly I was unhappy when the baby track too was all made sirf Ruhi ke liye. Baby was something which was supposed to be first for them Raman and Ishita themselves, and Ruhi and Adi and the family should have come later.
But here Ishita only thought about a baby to fulfill Ruhi's wish.
When it comes to Ruhi she just cannot see anything else. People might disagree but we tend to behave that way when we get something after too much struggle. Ruhi is one such priceless earning for her for which she has craved almost for a decade. So the unconditional love she has for her which sometimes can hurt other relations is justified.
We being Ishra fans do question Ishita's love for Raman but undoubtedly she has proved it over and over again today's episode being one such example.
It is just that what she has for Ruhi and what she has for Raman cannot be compared or measured. Both are different relations and there are different kinds of emotions involved.
Now coming to miscarriage, she was scared to death thinking that something had happened to Ruhi and Adi. And when she found that it was the unborn baby who was no more, she reacted in a way to shock everyone including her husband, her parents and us the viewers.
But what I feel is there are certain reasons for it.
1) What I believe is she is taking it the other way. What if something happened to anyone of Ruhi and Adi and the unborn baby was safe. She surely would have died in that case because undoubtedly she loved Ruhi and Adi more than the baby and she explained it beautifully how baby was going to be her third baby.
2) I don't know if anyone else felt it too but I think she was still unable to digest the fact that she had actually conceived it. Leaving that just one episode when she was given that news and then she broke it to Raman, I never saw a connect between her and the baby. We never got a single moment of her where she expressed her happiness or showed a connection with the baby. Not a moment when she caressed her stomach and tried talking to the baby or those little moments that an expecting mother shares with her baby. But we cannot even blame her. Things have happened too fast to react or connect. It was after that accident that she escaped, she realized that she was carrying another life inside her and now she needed to be more and more careful. It was just Raman who was dreamy about the whole thing but she was too numb. I don't know why. May be she was scared to believe it. Or maybe she didn't want to be happy knowing the risks that the happiness could be taken back anytime. Or it could just be that she was keeping her expectations too low. Whatever it was I just don't know. Maybe if a little more time would have passed, we would have got to see that connect.
3) Before jumping off the bus, there was a slight moment when she touched her stomach scared to death. I again don't know why but I felt she was ready at that very moment that this was going to happen. So it is like she had mentally prepared herself in those few seconds.
4) When the deadly news was revealed to her, her first words were koi baat nahi but there was a pain in her voice. Plus what I personally believe is that we act the opposite of what we are when in pain. Otherwise a woman who is too protective about her kids, her too cold reaction was a sign of the depth to which she was broken.
5) On coming back home, there was a moment when she recalls how Ruhi and Raman were excited about the baby but she could not recall any moment where she was happy about the baby. When you are too hurt, you don't get much affected by happiness as well and pains as well. Same is what I guess happened with her. She had already suffered too much that she had no high hopes with the baby and now when all the hopes broke, she is not too shattered. As your title of the latest OS says when it hurts to even cry. She has cried so much about this one thing that she just cannot cry anymore.
6) Time has made her a strong woman. Maybe she would have broken down if she saw Raman, Ruhi and Adi handling themselves strongly. But she came out and saw the three crying badly so she had to be the strong pillar to them. Maybe someday she would have let her pain out but after today I guess she is never going to. Because her pain is only going to add on to Raman's guilt.
That is what I felt. I am not defending the CVs and they surely ruined this track badly but as they say burai mein bhi kuch toh acha dhundna, I guess this was that good part I could take out.
I just hope CVs give us one scene of Ishita alone gushing out her feelings that would justify her behavior and we will all be fine.
Sorry in advance for the long rant and if I hurt anyone's sentiments.
