in practical terms..they are treating each other like lets say roomies..they are connected by a social norm..but to each other they remain (at least for now) roomies..each one having their independent existence..there are times when "they are reminded of the fact that they are married"... usually by external elements..
so like roomies..they stay together..they chat with each other...but everything else, is independent existence..including mourning for Suraj
For Khanak..she hums..not becos she is relaxed or that nothing affects her...she hums becos music is her existence...Music is her identity..every time she goes through an emotion..she sings ..music has helped stabilize her..music has helped her overcome..
at the same time, Khanak has come to terms..she can differentiate..like she told Dr. Sheila..i wanted to stay in Suraj's room (becos I loved him) and I stay with Shaan (becos I married him)..clear cut..
As for the rest...hmm..I don't know myself..shall have to cross bridges when we come to them..
The lines is blue Saaz nothing can beat this! Crystal clear in her mind where she stands in her life. She is not disillusioned about anything, she is highly aware that she is married to Shaan & yet knows that there is nothing more to it beyond that. Just like Shaan knows he is married, its a fact of life but that is all there is to it.
And true music is her soul, her nature, her habit, her personality. She knows nothing else other than music & to sing. She does that involuntarily when she is happy, sad, absent minded, as an accompaniment! That is what gets her going & will get her to destination as well.
A beautiful melodious journey it will be!
PS - Another implication, the sandals side by side, splendid! Will wait for the day when it will be intermingled & on top of each other. That will be the true unison of heart, body & soul.
