Brace yourselves sister because here I come with my Mahabharat 😎
Till now my biggest issue with PM has been the relationship between Nazifa & her father. At points I do feel irritated with the emotional blackmailing when parents say - you'll understand our pain once you have a child. But the thing is, as we grow up & face the adversities, see things from other people's perspective & obviously when we become parents, our outlook is bound to change.
That's where I always felt Nazifa came across problematic. Eloping & marrying a useless fellow at the age of 18 is not something you get to be proud of. And she left her house saying her father didn't respect her husbannd so she can't respect him which is atrocious. I always wanted to see some remorse in her or some longing for her own parents too.
Yesterday's episode gave that to us.
She came back home & got to know her MIL insulted her father. She was visibly sad but she also knew MIL was justified in her own stand. So she played along & said - he had forsaken me, so let him understand.
But then plays out her monologue as usual in Mitul's form.
After much ulti-seedhi batein N confessed that she wanted her father's help because she knows she alone can never do that. Her prime reason for seeking help was justice for her husband but deep down, she wanted to reconcile with her father. So M mocked her saying do you regret your decision?
Then she said an amazing dialogue that for her, each one of her father's fingers meant a separate kingdom. She was her father's princess. But she was also her husband's queen. There can be no comparison between that. Every girl desires to be a princess and a queen at the same time. One shouldn't have to choose between the two.
But then M says, my mother was upset & she got palpitation. She is my heaven. For your kingdom, you shook the base of my heaven.
At that point N asked that wasn't that selfishness on M's part? Even after everything she had been through in the last 10 years, she endured it all for M. But after all these, for him his mother came first. So how was she guilty if she longed for her father?
So M impatiently said he didn't know that but he found her guilty & her punishment was to spend the night at MIL's feet because she might suffer from a heart attack that night.
So they showed she did come to her MIL's room & checked on her but there was no love on her face. She was sad that everyone could do anything they wanted but she still had to choose between a good wife and a good daughter.
I think no matter how much we claim we have become modern, majority of the women still have to go through this pain everyday where they have to choose between their parents & spouse. Your husband can be the best but at the end of the day, they'll never want to compromise on their parents but it is you who is expected to sacrifice.
I so loved the entire sequence and N's portrayal.
I really wish someday she gives it back to her MIL too that it was a mistake & if she really considered her as her daughter, which she claims, she wouldn't insult her father. Now let's see what happens next.
