Even I felt on Saturday that the maa-beta scene came too suddenly and easily. But after some thought and reading the thoughts of y'all, I realised that they have shown enough scenes of the both warming up to each other. I expected some fumbling from Shaurya, but like some pointed out here, he doesn't fumble when he is doing something following his heart. I expected the past would overshadow his determination to start afresh and it did. I am glad it was not him who started to talk about the past. It had to come from Aastha as she was the one who had wronged him. He had extended his hand, she had to take a step now. I wouldn't have liked if the scene would have ended only on casual talks. So I am glad the emotional talks happened today.
Same thought. I saw the slow building of their relationship from early on. If you take it as a whole that he's always yearned for her love and seeing any effort from her always astounds him(just like it did when Anokhi gave him any importance)....I can see why he would want to forgive.
I'm glad Aastha's wasn't worried about the confrontation. I'm glad she didn't have the fear of bursting the bubble. She's not a woman to shy away. She might've enjoyed the happy persona her son displayed, but she's astute enough to address the things he didn't say.
Now coming to the "Maa" part. Whenever Aastha met him, she would hint at the same thing that she didn't leave him, he was snatched away by others. And we have seen him wondering about this for some days after everytime he met her. The guy had started processing it already. What was stopping him was BM's manipulation and his blind trust in her. The blindfold is off his eyes now after seeing how she is treating his love matters. He is also trying to meet Aastha without any prejudice as per Anokhi's advice. So this time as well, he initially refused to believe her, but he let her prove herself. Why? Because his subconscious mind has been thinking about this since quite some time now n he knew she is right.
I totally agree. He's been processing his relationship with his mother for a while. From meeting her at Gurdaspur/Kapurthala, to seeing her again in Chandigarh, dealing with her getting shot and almost dying, seeing her at his birthday, searching for her during the riots, seeing her after to say sorry, then her being the one who told the truth about Anokhi's visit, etc. He's had almost 150 episodes of processing and the conversation with Anokhi probably opened the actual floodgates.
I love that he's seeing Devi's manipulation with such clear eyes when it comes to Anokhi. We're all waiting for the blast when he confronts the Sabherwals now, with those rose colored glasses off.
We have seen how much this guy craves for his maa. BM is his karz wali maa, but the mother who would selflessly love him was still missing in his life. He didn't have any other issue with his mother except that she left him and never bothered to check on him again. Today his belief was proven wrong. He saw his mother didn't abandon him. She did love him and always wanted to be a part of his life. What else would a kid with abandonment issues want? He called her maa the moment he was assured that she didn't abandon him totally. We have seen with Anokhi how quick he is in expressing his love and his haq on people he considers his own. All he needs in life is acknowledgement of his love. Aastha gave him this acknowledgement today that she has been loving him all her life as much as he loved her as his mother. Once acknowledged, he didn't hesitate to her maa and mark his right on her as her son. As quickly he called Anokhi as Mrs Anokhi Shaurya Sabherwal once his love was acknowledged by her, the same way he called Aastha as maa. Yes, he has other issues too like he didn't have her when he needed her, but he already saw her sincerely apologise for the same. And they will surely discuss this again as well, this is not the end of Aastha's story, this is just a beginning.
@underline: I love that part!! This isn't their first conversation. Even if he didn't absorb everything Aastha said at his birthday, he was there to hear it, so this conversation was a continuation of that. And you're soooooo right.....he's quick to forgive those he considers his own. And just like he gets angry haq se, he also loves haq se. And we've seen that with Anokhi, especially with the titles!! And Ma is probably a title he's been wanting for her to take back!
Accepting Aastha wasn't a big deal here, knowing her backstory is. Because that will shake his trust in his BM. He is someone...you shower your unconditional love on him and he will love you back, he still has that innocent child in him alive. But break his trust and he'll make sure you know you have messed up with the wrong person. In this process, he will question Aastha many times as gradually he will trust Aastha more than BM and that's when her story will unfold. Today he has only called her maa, there's still some time for him to accept her as maa, understand her as maa, feel for his maa, stand up for his maa and lastly, keep her over and above badi maa! He is doubting BM now, but he still loves her and wants to trust her. As yet, he must be putting both the mothers at equal levels, he would love Aastha as much as he loves BM. But Aastha maa would get justice when he accepts her over and above Badi Maa. That would be Aastha's story and it definitely won't end here.
I can't wait for the Devi and Aastha face off where Shaurya is right in the middle. He's always been on Devi's side before. Devi is going to freeeeeeeeeeak! And I shall enjoy that. All her manipulations against Anokhi has only brought Aastha back into the fold. I'm soooo glad her arrogant plans have backfired!! It will still be sad that Shaurya will speak up for his mother before Shaan speaks up for his wife!
One more point I would like to make here. Though he says he doesn't care about anyone's acceptance, in his heart, he is left alone by his entire family. No one is accepting his love. No one is trying to understand him. Till now, he always had his badi maa to talk to, who would apparently understand him and support him in everything, but now she is not there too. Whereas, Aastha was understanding his love for Anokhi. The forever abandoned child in him needed a solace, and he got it only in his mother. Had it been some other times, he wouldn't have believed Aastha, he could have said dad must have sent you these pics, you never came to see me, you are not my mother, only BM is my mother. But now BM is not on his side and his confidence in her support is shaken. In such time, if there's another woman who says in your happiness lies my happiness, he is bound to get attracted towards her. Only Aastha's efforts wouldn't have been fruitful if not for the right timing! Drifting away from badi maa and aastha proving her love for him together made him call her maa instantly.
@underline: This is such a good point!! Timing matters in this. Anokhi plays a huge role!! Anokhi doesn't want to be another Aastha Sabherwal and the only way to prevent that is to understand what happened to the OG Aastha Sabherwal, which Shaurya is willing to do for his wife! Even if he said he'd give his family time, it has to hurt that his family can't see his heart, and the only person who can is a woman who hasn't been around for 25 years, but still trusts his wants/desires.
I can't wait to see Anokhi and Shaan's reaction on this happening!! (I know you all have cancelled Shaan and I am not much impressed with him too, but he too deserves this happiness, he has spent his life wanting Shaurya to call her maa!)
I'm really excited to Anokhi to hear about this. She wants the very best for her Aastha ma'am and her PS. As for Shaan, he has not given me any reason to trust him. That one phone call will not erase the harsh way he has spoken to or treated his son. Shaan is still cancelled!!
