And before starting off -a very very happy Raksha Bandhan to all..๐ค
coming to the point.. it's my off from college.. nateeja- im here..๐ like others, im here to say my feelings about the track too..๐ i read almost all the posts here and i kind of agree with them on the whole, but there are a few points on which i wanted to speak and i don't want to go on individual threads and write them down there because frankly, im very lazy.. and tired.. and exhausted.. just a day's off and i want to rest..๐ im here only because all the things which were inside my heart for quite a few days needed to be out..๐
Mods, if you find this topic inappropriate or repetitive, please feel free to close it..๐
To the members, my views in here are a mix of what you all think.. please don't feel offended, you know it isn't my intention..๐ as i said before, there's no novelty in this topic, just a glimpse of what all you have said here..๐
The reasons as to why i don't want Chiki to be adopted -
simply because im not liking it.. enough said..๐
this is NOT the solution to the problem of child labour..๐ i know big leaps can be achieved only by small steps, but sincerely, this step is taken in the wrong direction.. i repeat - wrong DIRECTION and NOT INTENTION.. Having said that, Singhania's are indeed trying to do a very very noble deed.. i'd always appreciate them..๐
this isn't the natural flow of the storyline.. Chiki coming home when Mama was making him work was okay.. i understand it.. anybody, and i really mean anybody would have done the same thing.. if not, im sorry to say - he's a heartless fellow..๐
but, what happened after that was NOT natural.. why? the reasons are below..๐
-the letter.. now can anyone explain me, how a 7 year old girl can write a letter of such high standard, if she hasn't gone to school for quite sometime? 'Bhagwan Ji, meri vinti suno' Vinti? like seriously?๐
-let's assume Chiki is an intelligent girl..๐ she knows those words and that letter was very genuinely written by her.. how on earth did Akshara's eyes land up on that letter?๐ she was standing on the door, wasn't she? pehli baat - there hasn't been a Mandir in the room.. 2ndly, even if it was present - in utter darkness, in front of the Diya, Akshara saw that letter? well, sorry - but this isn't digestible to me.. i toh cannot even see things which are right in front of my eyes and even in broad daylight, Mrs. Akshara Singhania saw that piece of paper in utter darkness? strange for me..๐
the episode dated 31st July, 2012.
it was a very very meaningful episode for me..๐ loved the epi.. even more because it made me think.. it made me think with Chiki's and more importantly, Akshara's POV as well..๐ i was to write it's Hits and Misses but due to some reasons, i didn't.. but sincerely, that epi is worth mentioning here..๐
Character Analysis :
1. Akshara :
Disclaimer - you may skip this portion if you cannot stand to hear anything against Akshara.. i don't care.. ๐ im not saying anything against Akshara, neither am i criticising her, this is just a character analysis.. but even then if some people want to believe so, im perfectly fine with it..๐ it doesn't bother me anymore..๐
she's being over-emotional.. no qualms in accepting that.. the dialogue 'ye dil se sochne ki hi baat hai Naitik' was a little too hard to digest for me.. adoption dil se sochne ki baat hai?๐ i don't think so.. especially after what Naitik said in his defence.. that it really isn't about money.. it's about everything else that would come supplementary to this adoption.. Akshara is shown to be a little rigid here, or i should say she WAS being a little rigid there, considering the fact that the epi has already come and gone..๐
for her, it's not about adoption.. or being sensitive towards child labours.. it's just about her bias and attachment towards Chiki.. if she had thought about these child labours on the whole, she'd have, atleast for once said - Chiki aur uske jaise kitne bacche honge.. okay let us not go that far.. ek baar ye hi bola hota - Chiki aur uske dost.. Chiki ke dosto se toh she had talked na?๐
i have an answer to what she said to Naitik in yesterday's epi.. when Naitik said he promises to give Chiki best of education and Akshara asked him, pyaar kaha se denge? well - kya pyaar sirf ghar pe reh kar hi diya jata hai?๐ that means those who live separately are not loved? i don't think so..๐
she should look at the things more practically.. such heavy decisions cannot be taken from heart..๐ if she cannot make a decision to keep Chiki away, she should ask family members to take a decision.. there's no need to get involved in it..๐ she should trust her family members and more importantly, her husband enough that he'l make out the best in this whole situation..๐
moreover, if she really feels adoption is the only option, she should have shown the letter to Naitik.. she did not and obviously, Naitik is not an antaryaami to sense it..
having said all this, i maintain it's not Akshara's fault.. when a person thinks with heart, he forgets all the practicality.. i understand that.. it was CVs fault.. they didn't give her enough dialogues through which we could justify her..
Naitik : i just loved him..๐ even in yesterday's epi, and day before yesterday's epi toh he was a gem..๐
whatever he had said to Akshara, the dialogues were bang on..๐
i know, he shouldn't have told Gayatri about what Akshara said to him.. but i think it was a flash of a moment and more than that, just a gimmick to show G3 angry with Akshara..
another lapse, and drag on CVs part.. otherwise, kya Akshara Naitik ka tiffin le kar office nahi jaa sakti thi?๐ก๐คฃ
when Naitik imagined Chiki in that child labour, i could see he actually felt for those poor kids, unlike Akshara..๐
Gayatri : the ever-witch.๐ how much im with her that even i don't want Chiki to be adopted.. how she is behaving is TOTALLY unacceptable.. no amount of defence can justify her behaviour, as of now..
all in all,
Neither Naitik, nor Akshara are at fault or being unreasonable.. it's the Creative Team who failed to show all the perspectives of this track.. afterall, all the world's a stage and all of us are merely players..๐
the track could have been a great social message to the viewers, but as of now, since Chiki hasn't been shown to be adopted by Singhania's and it's just in the news, i'd like to say with respect to these rumours that it won't be a wise decision..๐ let us just wait for story to proceed forward..๐
also, many people are doing their bit in this field, uninspired from anyone.. im not talking about NGOs and all that, but a few people like you and me..๐
there are a few people who teach the kids of their maid-servants at their home, even when those kids come to work for them..๐
my family, paid for the books of my maid-servant's daughter..๐ like my family, im sure there must be some other families who think and do things on the same lines..๐
i'd always appreciate Naksh doing the same.. and they should go and meet her quite often, when she leaves Singhania Sadan..๐
that's it.. i rest my case here..๐ if i hurt anyone with my views, im deeply sorry.. and as for those who think im bashing Akshara, well - alright..๐
i have nothing more to say for this track.. i'l be back with my take for another track, that is, ofcourse when time permits..๐ don't worry - it's not so soon.. holidays come very rarely..๐ญ๐
good bye all.. have a nice time.. hope to see you soon..๐ค
