SPM ~My Musings 12.9.19 Seventh heaven or living hell?
The saga of the twins continues. They conceived, and stayed together in one womb, but despite the similarities both were born with differing separate destines, quite beyond their powers. Both Kainat and Saltanat are two different individuals. Now their identical faces that riddled many of their own elders, seems to have altered thus distancing the twins further more. This episode makes a mockery of their fates. Regardless, whether either of them actually deserved the current out come of how life treats them individually..
But nevertheless, we empathize with the wronged Saltanat and condemn the trickery of deceptive, highly manipulative, criminal Kainat. In fact we are overwhelmed to see how Kainat prospers in her wickedness.Currently we see Kainat wallow in her victory lying next to her won trophy Zaroon! literally in seventh heaven every time she senses Zaroon touch her!
So thus begins the contrast between the fates of the twins. In Shah Manzil on the bridal bed its heaven beyond imagination for Kainat.
At Sharma house, Saltanat burns in an eternal inferno of hell! plagued by blurry images of her past. While Kainat delights in the fulfilment of her Zaroon fixation .As Zaroon holds Kainat’s hand , Saltanat’s whole body suffers burns, caused by all consuming tongues of fire. They turn her into a heap of ashes! Yet the mockery is, she still lives on .Kainat revels under Zaroon’s touch.
Madhav’s hell of a wait! turns into heavenly hope! when he spots the highly agitated Kashish! How he goads Saltanat to concentrate and let her memories flow.Zaroon’s name escapes from Saltanat’s lips. Many fires of hell begin to burn Madhav! Why in all creation , did she come out with the name of Zaroon??
The sound of his name from distant realms! Makes Zaroon back off from Kainat! some undefined force intercepts. Kainat is checked in her highpoint as Zaroon abruptly tells her to rest! and leaves the room. Kainat changes into a possessed banshee! she ransacks the room! totally how she feels dashed into a million pieces when Zaroon suddenly stops , in giving her a wife’s due!
At Sharma house, an enraged Saltanat questions Madhav why even in her amnesia! she can only think of one name she feels connected too ? surely he can tell her why the name came to her mind? So Saltanat sees him as the one, who can help her clear her blankness! Madhav shirks, denies any knowledge.. Madhav lies,that he was aware that Kainat was meant to marry Zaroon! Strangely he feels safer in condemning Kainat, that a vile person like her is incapable of loving anyone with such intensity! Madhav I feel is giving excuses to himself and making allowances for himself to consider emotional attachments towards her.
Madhav’s hell, as I see it, is to purge himself of what he may be beginning to feel for Kainat! It comes as no surprise, therefore that he should withdraw himself into a hellhole! A dark room , confronted with a box full of his personal memories with Sakshi di. He burns in his never ending hell of being the recipient of her maternal love, but one wretch of a brother! who failed to protect his sisters life! till death! from the onslaughts of this wretched Kainat! In some way this exercise for Madhav is brought on by himself! To keep at bay what he is beginning to feel about Kainat? He fells it necessary to serve himself severe reminders! that his task at hand is to do with Kainat that, which she deserves for murdering his sister Sakshi!
Zaroon too burns in some hell he cannot really put his finger on! But respite comes his way when his practical ideas are lauded by the dargah council members. The subject of the dargah is flagged up at last! as an integral part of the story line! Nadeem seems to be overseeing the affairs, but Zaroon too appears to be positively involved. Kainat now looks out for opportunities whereby she can empower Zaroon by strategically putting in a good word for Zaroon by advocating his case before Nadeem in whose grace Zaroon seems to have fallen from! In a daughterly fashion she appeals to her father ,calling for a truce between him and Zaroon. Result is Nadeem lauds Zaroon’s much needed intervention in the running of the dargah!
Seeing both her husband and father hug is Kainat’s strategic move to buy Zaroon’s, attention for herself! She dons the role of the supportive wife who stands by her husband in both thick and thin! Zaroon’s silent predicament is, he will have to remain indebted to her! do as she asks and wills of him? But can he go against a strange inertia he feels for Saltanat, his Sufiyana love? What silent hell is he burning in? one that keeps him under constant pressure. Zaroon, to me, suffers from guilt , that here she supports him and last night he denied her the rights of a wife! what hell!! keeps him from fulfilling his duties as a husband? But really, the scene between Zaroon, Nadeem, Rubina and Saltanat is a feeble excuse at playing happy families! There is guile about.. that cannot be seen by the naked eye!
At Sharma house,Saltanat seems to have recovered from her earlier traumatic experience. She is clear about who she has great affection for in Sharma’s household. Love begets love, she can feel Krish’s love and confesses to him, when he is not about ,she sees herself very much on her own..
Zaroon has to make efforts to give Kainat heaven! Make up for turning down her advances! He plans to give her a couple of surprises.
Venerations continue in Sharma’s household.. by now Indu and Sneha have worked out that if they want Madhav to conform to family image keeping, especially when others are present, use Sakshi’s name. Remind him how Sakshi liked things done and Madhav is sure to submit to family orders!
Once again Madhav does the veneration, adhering to his dead sisters wishes, but his silent prayer, in a roundabout way is about showing him ways of bringing back Kainat’s lost memory! so he can complete his task of bringing justice to his sister’s untimely death!
Madhav is asked to drop a frequent visitor home. Krish thinks of a plan to facilitate interaction between his father and dost didi. Wants to go for a ride to drop the guest. Indu declines the idea. But Madhav gives in to his son's stubborn will. Indu loses at keeping away Kainat from both Madhav and Krish !
Madhav/Saltanat interaction and Kainat/ Zaroon interaction is an interesting watch. Zaroon dates his wife brings her to her favourite eatery, but she fails to make the connections. Laughs flippantly ,flirts that her giddiness has made her forgetful! Silly her! favourite restaurant, her favourite symphony , her favourite dish ! Kainat is lost about all! The alarming thing is Zaroon remember's all! but she fails. Kainat is lucky, Zaroon, even serves her reminders! But then crafty Kainat knows how to pick up clues and lies through her teeth. Should alarm bells start to ring before Zaroon?? That not only is Saltanat’s face different! but it sounds like deep down inside too, she has undergone some unexplained reformation? I suspect, day to day personalized experiences shared only between Zaroon and Saltanat will make Kainat fall flat on her face! But to catch her out will be one hell! of job for Zaroon to undertake!
One the other hand Saltanat is in the car with Krish , the guest to be dropped home yet.. some strange contact is underway between her face and Madhav’s watchful eye checking her out of his rear mirror. The amicable guests comments, insinuating soon Madhav will be getting married! Makes Madhav spontaneously glance at a dazed faced Saltanat. She seems away with the fairies! Suddenly Yes! she remembers! This place! Seems like she’s been here before!
Does Madhav really want her memory revived?What with this name Zaroon coming out of her mouth? Zaroon’s name is a hell he could do without!
Overall.. Kainat is the only one in enjoying her bespoke paradise!The rest of them each burn in their own personalized hell! 13.9.19 hamlet53
Precap: Madhav takes Kainat to this restaurant she identified, in the hope of restoring her memory. But what the hell! who should be there? Zaroon with some woman, who Madhav is unfamiliar with..
