Bepannah ~ My Thoughts~ ep 31~30.4.18.. Sign of the times..
This signature on the dotted line.. says it all for both Aditya and Zoya. The sign, bodes of negativity , heart ache ..it's like the sight of the signature almost signed off their lives away, to some concealed lie that now laughs in their faces. There is no winner between Aditya and Zoya. They both end up losing the war, against the ones they both loved dearly. But alas! the ones to defeat them are beyond their reach. So who do Adi and Zoya fight now?? Themselves? The episode is about how two betrayed young people show signs of emotional breakage. How hard it appears to give them high signs! A warning! that none knew was coming into their lives..
Yash's signature , to Zoya appears, he wished to wash his hands off her! so he could sign his life to his new love.. another man's wife ! The penny finally drops for Zoya! No more hiding behind the incorrigible Aditya Hooda pranks . Harsh her love! her husband! signed without giving her a second thought. It's an unthinkable thought, hers was a one-sided love!
Aditya stares at the omission of Pooja's signature. But he will not be duped. What does it matter? His situation is no different to Zoya's!! that cheater Yash's signature says it all! The low life spoke for Pooja! she didn't need to sign! Aditya knows both Zoya and him have been struck with all hells fire of ignorance! With the bolts of lightning that shames their whole existence. Their life partners cheated on them for the whole world to know!! It's an assault most painful.. a bruise on their ego's after all those years of marriage their sincere love ends up as reject goods!
The fact that Yash signed and Pooja clearly didn't ..is a sure sign for Adi,that this stupid widow will consumes herself with more sorrow than he does.
Shell shocked, grief ridden he watches her leave.. it's like her heavy footsteps are burdened by the truth! The ugly truth. The dark and hopeless truth. Wish he could shout at Zoya.. let the truth set you free!! To me Aditya's hatred for Yash is reduced. Instead it's replaced by deep compassion for a woman whose blind love for her cheating husband has been defiled and disrespected.. the glaring discrepancy between Yash signing and Pooja refraining for some unknown reason? Is perhaps to give Zoya the rough shakeup into accepting the real truth about her husband. Aditya always had his doubts the moment he saw his dead Pooja holding her dead lovers palm in death! So to me Adi and his erratic mood swings are already a high sign of him partly facing the truth, that his Pooja was unfaithful to him.. so now receiving the unsigned divorce papers is more of a challenge for his shortcoming!
No he will not be fooling himself with nonsense like why didn't she sign? Was she having second thoughts? To me, with Aditya its more like, when he is weak he is strong!! But in comparison will Zoya in her emotional frailty , as it stands now, show any signs of being strong??
The dead who leave an unsolved shocking history behind .. continue beyond their graves, to grieve the living they leave behind. Zoya now like Aditya wants to be left alone to come to terms with the worst truth she ever had to face. Betrayal in love! While the rest of the Hooda's, Sakshi squabble , hurl blames at each others.
Some signs to go by and others to ignore. Adi turns a deaf ear to Sakshi , giving him what he considers false hope. His heart knew Pooja had signed him out of his life. But on Arjun's behest he goes to look out for the broken Zoya.
The elements go wild and tempestuous, and mirror her state of affairs. The bolts of jagged lightening! the wild wind, fails to shake Zoya out of her stance! this is not the illusion of Yashs love. It is the deafening clap of thunder that forces the truth of being betrayed by Yash! upon Zoya, quite ruthlessly.
She is like a smashed ,damaged, ruined woman. what a sham! Their love made them choose each other, instead of their families! The firmament thunders! Zoya but he left you for another woman! face Yash s lies. The truth is he signed you out of his life! Zoya's hot feverish mind conjures Yash up.. deliriously she hates him for destroying her self- esteem, her trust! her body! her spirit!
Adi's storm urges him to seek Zoya, he worries she will crack and shatter in a million pieces. He finds her, papers in hand, clad in Pooja's sari.. her cracked voice, her dented soul, moves him. But in a way, he is pleased to see the reverie she existed in has been broken.
Her sobbing complaints tell him ..he could see long before she could, that the castle she had erected off Yash's immortal love for her, was really a house made of glass! It was bound to shatter! Exactly like his was!! Yes it's the common calamity that brings him running after her. To guide her and show her the way! For he himself is lost..looking for the way ahead!
Then the ring crops up between them.. diverts Aditya from signing into Zoya's deep anguish.This wretched ring that symbolizes, misleading hopes, betrayed trust, relinquishing a lost love! For Aditya and Zoya, the ring forms a circle of past love. It's a tight metal circumference around their broken hearts, that prevents them from signing off from the oath they once took with Pooja and Yash for life!
Both Adi and Zoya , temporarily sign off from the initial shock of the divorce papers. Adi shoves the papers and the damned ring that fits neither girl Pooja or Zoya !into a drawer and slams it shut! Puts on his mask of "frankly my dear I don't give a damn! slips on his leather jacket and goes clubbing! Hell with all!
Zoya.. returns to her cheating husbands home.. Mahi conspires to sign Zoya out of their house.
Zoya retires to the bathroom, the cold shower brings home the cold reality. The fever of loving Yash, seems to break away. Aditya was right all along.. she lived in a bubble. The slow jet of cold water, gradually turns her blood cold.. something dies inside her today.. the will to live. Might as well sign out for good! What good is she to any one????? Precap..[ pardon me, restrain myself from writing more about her action]
She was a blind fool! But she is good for Aditya.. he stares at the heap before his feet.. Zoya limp ,lifeless? It takes a broken ,weak, wounded lion like Adi.. to rescue her for the bloody umpteenth time!
Stupid woman! reaches for his arm.. and says her golden lines.. thanks for saving my life again... Adi gives her a sided look.. yeah right! God! she is high maintenance! More than himself! Hamlet53 30.4.18
An episode that once again reveals the complexities of the heart and mind. We see how family support in trauma also supports, but can smother the victim by too many well meaning suggestions. Zoya and Aditya are not only facing the trauma of divorce but also with the stigma of unfaithful partners. We are left with the question at the end of each episode. Can they love again?? Or love only to hurt their partner..?? Harshad and Jenny life and soul of the boundless love...
