the biggest problem I have with this show is that the episodes seem too short
They always leave me wanting for more
each episode explores one aspect of relationship, and focuses on one value that it reinforces
This time of course the relationship was the father son bonding - how Dashratha opened up to his son and shared his regret with Rama
Of course, it had a lot to do with the fact the Rama is so full of empathy and love, and he is so non judgemental that Dashratha must've been drawn to him and bare his soul to his son, not an easy thing for any human being, let alone a King, who is as ingrained in his kingly persona as Dashratha
Rama instantly could see that Dashratha is his own heart has been punishing himself for letting his daughter go, and has been feeling tormented with Kaushalyas pain and the walls this has erected between them.
Rama, whose heart wants to only reach out and heal, and not to judge and hurt, instantly assures his father of his intent to help his parents breach the abyss that separates them and also to bind the family together by reaching out to his sister
Ironically, both Dashratha and Kaushalya want to meet shanta, but are so consumed in their loss and guilt that they are unable to take the simple step of reaching out to her and to each other
This is so true of our relationships - we very often create our own monsters when a simple act of repentance, a single word of forgiveness, or a simple touch will heal so many aches and pains of broken hearts
Hats off to Dilip ji and Vedant and the writers for that beautiful scene between father and son - Dilip Tahil showing all the suffering beneath that Royal dignity and Rama radiating calm acceptance and love
In Mithila too, the sisters in own little childlike way are striving to keep the family together, and there too in a micro way, the presence of the daughters is coming in the way of Royal ambitions
The value of love togetherness and acceptance, of family bonding above all else, was put forward in a way that was simple, beautiful, warm, direct yet subtle.
If i was an emperor, I would've given a part of my kingdom to Dilip ji last night and made him a sach ka King! He totally excelled in that scene
And apne Vedant as Rama ke toh kya hi kehne, I would've married my daughter to him and made him uttaradhikari to my kingdom!
