😛 So now we have an ever-forgiving Sona who, before Dev could ask for it, has freed him from all the wrong-doings 👏. Not going into how much I despise the butchering of a strong female lead we ever had in Indian Tele, but just a curious thought.
First Love - I hear it's a big thing, something which can never be erased. Specially, a woman never forgets her first love. But with this, there comes the vulnerability that a woman puts into the hand of her lover, in a way that she can never repeat for any other future partners in her life, the places which only the first lover can touch in a woman's soul. It's a feeling that remains with a woman for ever, much after the breakup, a feeling she conveniently can carry on for the rest of her life with a mixed feelings of sacredness and melancholy, can cherish in some extreme lone moments while revisiting the pages of her throughout life, something to cherish for ever I'd say.
But but but, when the love is so deep, so are the scars received from it. Today we saw Sona, at the drop of her hat, forgiving everything, every insult, every harrassment, just cuz she 'loves' him ? Sorry it doesn't work that way. If a woman doesn't forget her first lover, she also doesn't forget and forgive the first heartbreak she receives from the very same person. The more is the love, the greater is the expectation, the greatest is the inability to forgive even at the slightest mistake of his. I agree Sona is very understanding etc etc, 🥱 but how is it ever possible to forgive your first love who gave up on you without even a single try ? 😕 The clash of expectations are inevitable. And I'd rather judge the girl if she doesn't hold any grudge against the boy who is SO passive. 😕 When the show started, I thought it's something really mature and close-to-reality 😕 But in reality, neither the girl can forgive the person who breaks her heart so easily, nor can she reach this level of understanding when she supports the same guy without any improvement/try from his side to keep the relationship going.
When I signed up for the show, I really thought it is a story of two like-minded mature people who would come to terms of separation mutually, where no one breaks the other's heart, and they together fight the odds against the world. But when Dev already had made a unilateral decision without consulting with Sona and with no inputs from her that also SO brutally, that killed the essence. After that I thought I'd get Sona's fight for her self-respect and Dev's redemption to ensure he wins her back before they try to win both families together. But with today's Sona's split-of-the-second forgiving track, all is doomed. This is really disappointing and nowhere close to reality. A girl can not be SO understanding towards her love who caused her the deepest pain even if it's her first love. Kuch Rang has just proved to be like any other show with an immature ML and a Devi-roop FL.
P.S. - Veer-Zaara movie is the most perfect example of breaking up due to family pressure and how the breakup scene/discussion should be. Today makers tried to recreate the same emotions, but in my opinion, it failed miserably since it's not possible to erase the memory of the first breakup initiated by Dev. 😕
