Bepannah ~ My thoughts ~ep 65. 15.6.18. In all fairness ..
Overall being fair is, being objective, impartial and unbiased. The law of the land aspires to dispense justice free from favouritism and self-interest. Judgement that is equitable, dictated by reason, sense of fair play and conscience. Today's episode, in all fairness is powerful play of words of unravelling the veracity behind unfounded lies. Double murder, an alleged affair are unpicked, rather ruthlessly by the defence lawyer. The ulterior motive is to save Aditya and on his behest ,alongside him, Zoya Arora too.
However when it comes to battling out cases, both for and against a charge. The final verdict lies in the hands of how well justifications for and against the defendant are put forward. Within Zoya and Aditya's trial we observe how the base motive both from the prosecution and defence is guided by selfishness or moral depravity. The court battle between Hooda' and Rajveer is about winning the war, and not about pursuing the truth in its purest. Manipulating the truth to suit needs is seen as acceptable. Claims though, are made from both sides that lies will be exposed to bring about true justice to the aggrieved parties.
In all fairness to Harsh Hooda, and surreptitiously the Siddiqui's too, it's a simple base motive to protect their family brand name. Along in Harsh's scathing attack on Yash Arora, I clearly sense an echo of Waseem's opinion about Yash. Did these two powerful ,men join heads before the final launch of the defence? Historically ,through fair or foul ways both families, to be fair, have put in effort to establish their , good name, reputation , dignity and honour. The issue though now remains in the maintenance of the family respectability image. Both Hooda's and Siddiqi's as I seen it , have suffered a set back to their family name by the existence of Yash Arora. The dead man has been a huge source of scandalous social embarrassment to both families. I fear, what transpired in the court proceedings today somehow not only frees Zoya and Aditya of criminal charges they were guilty of, but also scores off Yash Arora as a compulsive borrower! Mentally unstable person who eventually not only takes his own life! but another innocent victim Pooja Hooda's life too! Through Harsh , I feel Waseem too, somehow feels avenged! against the no good Yash who was guilty of misleading his princess Zoya!
For Harsh Hooda it was yet again the base motive to quell Pooja and Aditya's private lif ! from the ruthless public! That which was made ruthlessly public, open to negative propaganda against the Hooda family! By the infamous Yash Pooja's disreputable death! In saving Aditya.. Harsh Hooda puts up his son's defence his way! His way as we see means to flog up a dead mans memory! expose Yash's true colours! Evidence based, and then condemn the man , plus all closely affiliated with Yash Arora , his widow! Mother and sister! to public disgrace and humiliation. Harsh skilfully recusesadmirably all charges against Adi , at the expense of presenting a mentally ill Yash not only committing suicide but also murdering Pooja Hooda! Quite cleverly, Harsh also manages to save the good name of deceased Pooja as she too is referred to fall under Hooda name canopy. While Zoya's in contrast is set aside, as she is not a Hooda but an Arora !
Once again Pooja Hooda's reputation lies in tact, spotless. As in all fairness she is even in death still the honour of Hooda household. Pooja Hooda maligned! Posthumously, now stands as yet another innocent victim duped by Yash Arora just like Zoya !
The only person who is likely to object to Harsh modes operandi in court is his son Aditya. So once again Aditya s father presses the right buttons in Adi.. as a lawyer, he'll contest the case for both him and Zoya. But with a condition. Aditya will hold his piece till the verdict is done and dusted with!
In all fairness to him Harshvardhan Hooda, stands up to his good name and repute professionally. His credible defence, substantiated with crucial witnesses, goes to prove that both Pooja Yash affair motive for the defendants, is subject to doubt. As witness testimonies appear, uncertain ,undecided about the truth and reliability of Pooja and Yash having an affair. Harsh goes on to argue , if the affair motive is ruled out, henceforth perishes too, Aditya and Zoya's charge of suspected revenge in causing Pooja and Yashs death! Aditya and Zoya stand acquitted of all charges pressed against them.
Harsh does all within his power to save his son Aditya. The court scene culminates, with the feeling of some win , some lose. Hugs, tears and utter disbelief. Zoya I feel is unsure about the manner with which Adi and her lawyer fought for their innocence. Seeing Yash's mother in tears ,devastated about how her dead son, was pulled to bits by the prosecution lawyer! Gives Zoya no joy and respite that justice has won! She , senses, seeing Adi innocent of something he was not guilty of has taken its toll on her. She feels she has had a raw deal. She feels her past life has been somewhat used to sway the verdict. Gunning Yash down. Yes she too like Aditya is walking away scot free! But not without paying a heavy price! As the dignity, privacy, of her married life is used to justify why Yash wanted to divorce her. Not due to an affair with Pooja! but because Zoya was high maintenance! This does hurt her. Adi too gulped in court, but keep silent because he wanted Zoya and him both acquitted..
Another cleverly concealed base motive Harsh Hooda has around this Zoya Aditya defence case is, to thwart the progression of Adi Zoya bond. I feel Harsh assumes that his barely emotionally recovering son is yet again, beginning to blindly trust this Zoya girl.One can see Harsh was never keen on fighting Zoya's case. Now Harsh s complete argument that Pooja and Yash never had an affair, as grave doubts surround the relationship. Create doubt even in Zoya and Aditya's minds about the meaning of the joined hands in death. To me Harsh uses this as a ploy to distance Zoya from Aditya.. as seeing now her dead husband didn't cheat on her, will make it cumbersome for Zoya to left go of Yash's memory.. is she likely to remain loyal, to a dead and gone Yash?
The manner in which Harsh flogs up the issue of the signed and unsigned divorce papers, is to substantiate the fact that there was nothing between Pooja and Yash. However I cannot help thinking what if Harsh claim was true?
Adi too, delves on the divorce lawyers evidence.. Pooja didn't sign because she perhaps was undergoing a change of heart? On the other hand if there was no affair between Pooja and Yash! Then he too wrongly suspected Pooja of being a cheater!! Its cruel this side of the acquitted case story. How easily Harsh cracks the Pooja Yash affair story by proving there never was an affair between the two! The ones who are likely to be taken away by this stance are Adi and Zoya.. as the truth about nature of the clasped palms remains doubtful. Harsh's witnesses testified Pooja and Yash were just "good friends
Pooja's dairy holds some details. But as we see in the episode , Harsh clearly chooses to ignore it. Bashing Yash is the only way he can see his son Aditya walking free from the court. As for Zoya, if she wants her freedom, she will have to swallow some unpalatable true lies about her dead husband.
In this case, the defence lawyer has exhibited self-interest, preference and favouritism. Zoya, and the rest of the Arora's have been spurned aside, like non entities in the face of the mighty Hoodas Harsh ,Aditya and Pooja.. Hamlet53 16.6.18
The precap. To me Adi clearly misses her. Zoya's protest comes unexpected to him! he expected her to be grateful? Perhaps? Instead his dead wife Pooja Hooda gets called names!! Yes Adi feels the pinch!.. That manifests itself in a possible swing of his clenched fist in her face! Exactly! that's how Zoya felt when Yash this! Yash that! was going on the court! Links established with a person through marriage cannot be severed so easily. The truth is that Adi and Zoya both loved their dead partners to the best of abilities... old habits take time to go. However, the test of Adi and Zoya's undefined bond begins now. Will thier undefined bond stand the test of time to prove its durability?? Meanwhile in all fairness , seeing Adi and Zoya come this far, I would like to see them work at it. Make a go of what they have between them already, and build upon it.
Eid Mubarak my dear readers.. thanks so much for supporting my work..much love hammie..
