Gan, beautiful, heart touching and emotional collage.
The episode was a power packed one with showing the differences of the two mothers at its heights.
Who is the real mother is never a question here. It comes up when Shagun utters it. But it makes that woman more disgusting.
At one end a mother was begging for her child. At the other end a woman was making the worse of her children to make herself safe, herself important, herself predominant.
Ishita was shattered to know that she was going to lose her child. She was in a trance...don't know what to say, what to do. The very first time she knew about it, she knelt down before Shagun. That's what a true mother does...the ego, the self respect...every thing she gave away. She stood bare in front of Shagun.
Shagun on the other hand, never dropped a tear, when she was losing her child at the court twice before. Even now,losing Adi is nothing to her, more than that, getting Ruhi matters. She now very well know that with Adi or without Adi, the relational status of Ishita and Raman are same. It can't make any more differences. So she tried on Ruhi. The epitome of the relation of Raman and Ishita, precisely marriage. She very well know the crisis would arise and Ishita would do anything for Ruhi...anything. And that made her not to tell that if you give Adi to me, may Ruhi be with you. If she wanted her beloved son to her as she claims, she can easily solve it. she can tell them no to ask for Adi anymore, if so, you should give Ruhi. But she has herself planned everything in taking Ruhi, and bestowing Adi to them. She without a tinge of sadness, is ready to give a son...the only person on earth (apart from her mother) who loves her unconditionally...who has never left her alone, who fought for her.
To revenge upon a woman, who claims herself a mother to her daughter, who loves her daughter unconditionally...she is simply letting go of the loving child of her.
On the other hand a mother, who is mad at every thing knowing she is going to lose her child, never tells that take Adi, we don't need Adi and will never ask for, we need only Ruhi...the love of her life. Because she know the pain of children. She know the result of being abandoned. She knows what a child needs. She is the true mother to the children. She here needs both of them...to love them, to nurture them. But, she can't afford to lose one for the other.
As per Shagun is concerned, she thinks that if Adi is with her, Raman would beg...will give every thing ...and if Ruhi is with her, she can undoubtedly bring Ishita to her knees. And she has succeeded in it. She then laid out a condition of exchanging... A mother who knew her husband's son does not love do not approve for this. She needs both the children. A true mother at heart.
We know, now she can become a mother...her husband gifted her the reports in their anniversary... Shagun asked her to make a child of her own if she needs, knowing that she can't. Did that question changed her attitude...No. She tore away the papers sitting beside her husband...she tore away her in born ability. A true mother at heart. A mother, who has 10 children will always yearn and cry for the lost child. If she has everything in the world...still...she will yearn for the lost child.
I wonder if Shagun knew that Ishita can become a mother, she would not have dared to take this step.
Regarding Ishita's reaction to Raman, its up to the mark. Its no about questioning their relationship. It about telling him that he is the cause of losing her. For her family everything is perfect with three of them. She was the one who became a wife because she wanted to be a mother to Ruhi. If she was the biological mother of Ruhi, and something happens because of Raman, she will definitely split out those words again. Every mother would, i guess. Its not about blaming, its not about avoiding , its not about misunderstanding, its not about the value of one person or the other...its just the fear of losing a perfect family...which she has created...its the fear of losing all the happiness that holds you to together. She yelled at him as a wife and mother, to her husband and father of their child.
"A mother's love for a child is like nothing else in the world.
It knows no pity.It dares all things and crushes down remorselessly
all that stands in its path."
Agatha Christie.
This is the case with Ishita.
Regarding the onscreen, Divyanka was to the T. How can a woman act like that...that too not being a mother...ohh I wonder. I love her more for this. And KP, as you said, having barely any dialogue, he was excellent in his work. And Ruhi...wow !!!
I don't know Gan, How much right I have written.
Its again a rambling after drenching in to a wonderful,emotional and heart drenching episode.
Once again, am in love with your collages Gan.
