SPM ~My Musings 3I.8.19 ~ Slip through the net!
Once again Kainat manages to go unnoticed,undealt with by the system despite all the glaring, evidence against her! we know that she behaved illegally , criminally, but then that’s the bluff she pulls on the family! Heaven alone knows how long she will continue? I nearly rolled my eyes when Zaroon admits his folly and names her as Saltanat!not Kainat the cheat, fraud, deceitful, multiple killer. Well Ghazala’s murder is left hanging in the air regards nabbing the killer, as all the Shah’s technically are not suspects due the mismatch of all their blood samples!
Seeing Mamoon leave all of sudden without even seeing Ghazala laid to rest is sad and disheartening. He clearly leaves with losing more than he ever vouched for. However Zaroon I felt was unable to give his father the support he needed. Yes Zaroon almost patronizingly tells his father there are no hard feelings between them, I still felt he was as distant from his father as ever before. On the other hand may be Zaroon as the younger generation, recalls the trust Mainjaan invested in him when he said , ensure the family stays together. Zaroon grieves for his mother and thus is unable to maintain two immediate relationships, one with his leaving and the other with this wife of his.. Saltanat, in whose image Zaroon invariably sees Kainat! Can Zaroon sense some deviousness ,some untruth every time he sets eyes on Saltanat or is around. He finds no solace instead she winds him emotionally as he keeps seeing her in spectacles, with her chunni on her head, with a bland expression on her face!
Zaroon turning her away is Kainat’s punishment for being a sheep in wolf’s clothing. She refuses to accept that Zaroon’s disaffection, his indifference in her is for real! That her one-sided love is an obsession. But then her madness continues to make her live in a bubble. Kainat can get away with murders but she cannot get away from Zaroon’s total disinterest in her. So much so for impersonating Saltanat.
One thing that strikes me in this episode is, how poor Saltanat even in Kainat’s pseudo persona is a much hated twin.In Shah Manzil all her life her plain jane , unassuming, low profile twin sister Kainat hated her to extreme of stealing her love, her husband Zaroon and finally pushing her over the edge to her death!
Now under the present circumstances, we see Sneha, Madhav’s younger sister ready to freeze the life out of Saltanat , in the fake identity of Kainat. Seems like the evil twin Kainat constantly keeps slipping through the net and getting away with her devilish misdeeds! Saltanat representing virtue, is constantly being threatened, assaulted by agents of vice.
Being in a coma, does not help Saltanat. She cannot defend her true identity or the murder she did not commit. It’s like Kainat has always begrudged Saltanat for following her into this world! and for being better than her!
Kainat on the other hand robs Saltanat’s fate, by snatching her love, her husband,her very life! but Kainat remains poorer than Saltanat ,for we see in the episode that Kainat continues to be totally deprived of the Sufiyana love Zaroon felt for Saltanat! Even when he looks upon her as Saltanat , he expresses the revulsion and loathing he feels in his heart for Kainat! Kainat knows . It's as If he can see,, through what lies underneathher Saltanat's façade that she puts up before him.. Kainat suffers from self denial too, as part of her many evils..
The Sharma’s continue with their Janamasthami celebrations worship preparations. Their lies friction in this family too. Sneha once again challenges her brother about bringing Kainat into the house their sisters Sakshi’s killer,after twelve years! Why didn’t he kill Kainat somewhere outside?
Madhav sounds him self, as a potential Jkiller.. but the man certainly has principles . just , like Saltanat. Tes he could have killed this Kainat , but to befair , he is a man who will never fight a defenceless ,unarmed opponent! Kainat ‘s coma renders her defenceless, once she comes around..he will fight her ,kill her and bring justice for Sakshi!
It’s clear that Indu does nor react to Kainat being in her house, as much as Sneha does. Her insane action of killing Kainat/Saltanat stems from the fact that her husband Jugal has a roving eye and she fears, with a pretty girl like Kainat around, her husband will making passes at her thus reducing their marriage into a sham! So like Kainat is fearful of losing Zaroon to Saltanat ‘s beauty. Sneha too is terribly insecure about losing her husband to Kainat/Saltanat’s good looks.
Saltanat’s looks leaves some impact upon Madhav as well. in his room as he begins to change for worship, he abruptly stops in his tracks and realizes the presence of this asleep sleeping beauty on his bed, dressed in dusk rose pink.. the care he shows as he props her head on his pillows.is interesting.. so much so that he leans over her and fixes her locks that get entangled in his button! He thinks aloud.. she cannot turn hims soft! Make him change his motive! His words are really a reminder for him self not to be taken in by Kainat’s beauty.. but then again it/s not Kainat , but Saltanat his eyes behold.. there is some silent warmness of heart within ,him.
The scene contrasts with Sneha /Kainat scene, where Sneha makes the temperature of Kanat’s room drop to below minus.. she wants this girl out of life!chill eternally! Sneha too like Kainat has no qualms of taking people’s lives. Like Kainat, she slips away from the family worship to carry out a criminal act against Saltanat’s very life her brother Madhav is so passionately trying to restore,renew and rebuild! As Madhav leads worship, much to his mother Indu’s delight! he is portrayed as the new age lord Krishna who comes to fight evil and restore peace and justice!
Overall a good episode especially as it celebrates the message of virtues in all key faiths of the world..precap: shows..evil resides side by side the good..1.9.19 hamlet53. Thanks irshita for your comment.. happy Sunday ,love hammie
