Week 60 - We are family!

Family is the anchor during rough waters. Blood can make you related, but family is determined by the behavior, by the loyalty of its members...The love of Family is Life's greatest blessing. Our show dwelled on this topic of "Family" for almost the whole week.. Whatever happens, we are family! πŸ˜Š πŸ’ͺ🏼 ❤️

An encounter with Khatri was not something Sonakshi planned to do this week in Dev's house..However, when Khatri posed a threat to Dev's home, she did not hesitate to confront him - because she is family! ❤️ The power of family is such...that we may fight among ourselves, only until an external force threaten our peace...Sonakshi declared herself a family member of the Dixits! A family should be composed of such people! Not people like mami and Vicky who dig holes under the feet of their own family members!!

Even when Mami and Vicky did unimaginable things to Dev, he did not fail to show his love and loyalty to his mama's family who he believes supported the Dixits during bad times.. Family is this - in which every member takes care of the unsaid needs of every other member.. For Dev, Golu is his unborn son. And saving for Golu's future is not something Vicky or Eleena or mami asked Dev to do.. Dev did it because he understands that he and Golu are family! ❤️ On the contrary, the extent Vicky went against Dev in order to safeguard his own future is not unknown to us! And the evil plans that Vicky and mami are constantly making against Suhana and Sonakshi will never be forgiven, especially in the light of Dev's good heart.

Sonakshi and Dev both understand the value and importance of "Family". Its only an irony that they could not live together as a family. πŸ˜’

A family looks out for each other even when they are not living under the same roof - Like how Saurabh, the good brother was worried for Sonakshi and the new problem that she has invited upon herself! Even if Jatin is only a friend, he also comes under the umbrella of family merely for this same concern that he has for Sonakshi and her new problem in hand! Not to forget the love he has for Suhana.. This love for Suhana might be suffocating for Dev now.. but he himself cannot deny that Jatin had filled his absence in Suhana's life for the last 6 years.. Whether Dev likes it or not, wants it or not, Jatin is also family! ❤️

But our Dev Dixit has always lived in a small world in which he nurtures the people he loves, with overwhelming love... And because his world is small, he does not have enough space there for anyone other than the people he loves..His growing possessiveness for Suhana and Sonakshi is only a result of this! Even though a cute coffee date (included with instructions of how to make coffee πŸ˜‚❤️) started off the week, it only became bitter and more bitter for Dev as the week progressed.. Every time he saw Sonakshi and Jatin either talking over phone or in person, Dev could only see and think of  Sonakshi moving away from him. Even after so many affirmations from Sona that Jatin was only a friend, he just could not trust her! πŸ˜

I like Dev for the honest and deep love he has for Sonakshi. I did feel very very sad that Sonakshi was being extremely rude with him for expressing his possessiveness in his own way. It literally broke my heart to see him walk away with so many unanswered questions and eyes full of tears every time it happened..But I also felt bad that when a woman is with a man that is not his brother, dad or husband, why should the society always question her character and her relationship with him?😑 Yes, in this case, I agree that it was only due to the exorbitant love that Dev had for Sona and I am willing to forgive him just like Sona, for mistaking Sona-Jatin relationship.

But, almost the same thing happened in the fandom of the show - when Khatri was introduced in the show in the backdrop of he knowing some secret from Ishwari's past. There were so many speculations of Dev being an illegitimate son of Ishwari and Khatri!!  I know that the speculations were primarily due to the hatred for Ishwari as a character.. But still.. I was very sad that even a noble woman like Ishwari can be questioned and criticized and linked with other men.. The society is such. However modern we become in civilization, a woman needs to prove herself whether it is Sita or Ishwari or Sonakshi..πŸ˜’

I understand that Ishwari and Sonakshi's case cannot be directly compared to Sita. But when we look carefully from a woman's point of view, we cant deny that however good or bad Ishwari and Sonakshi are, their character should not have been questioned at all...πŸ˜’πŸ˜’

By the end of the week, we got a little close to the answer for the big question of the secret revolving around Ishwari and Khatri. Again, its only a speculation that Ishwari might have stolen from the family which was arranging a wedding for their daughter..Only Ishwari can come and solve this for us. Until then, like Sona, we just have to wait with anxiety.

Sometimes I wonder why Sonakshi is not being open with Dev with the case of Khatri...especially when Dev was getting restless with burning possessiveness... The only reason I could come up with was that she was scared that Dev might take the judgement of Khatri in his own hand, especially after he told Sona that he really wanted to kill that guy as Ishwari was scared of him.

A family is one in which every member hears and understands the unsaid pain and emotions of each other.. Sonakshi sure understands the pain of Dev and Dev definitely knows that his judgement of Sona is purely impulsive.. However they need to go through this process of longing for each other, in order to understand how important they are for each other..❤️ I hope that Dev soon gets some relief from the heaviness that is burdening his heart and Sona soon sees Dev and is able to express her innermost love for him. ❤️πŸ’‘

It seems much easier for kids to explain the complicated feelings in the simplest way to the adults! Golu's reminder to Dev that "we only hurt those that we love the most" was much needed for Dev to get some relief...😊 and Suhana's innocent reminder to Sonakshi of how perfect Dev was made it easy for her to get her own caged emotions out.. πŸ˜Š

After weeks of watching the "Strong" Sonakshi, and "hurting" Dev, it was a welcome consolation to see her bring out all her emotions that she had bottled up inside her. I will not blame her at all for being a strong rock all this while, because, this society only takes advantage of a weaker person. But however strong we are, when we encounter undeniable love, we cannot fight our emotions for long..  It was almost as if she never cried all these 7 years for the fear of becoming weak. Erica did a commendable job as Sonakshi who was unable to deny her love for Dev which has not faded even a bit even after all the storm she had gone through! πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ» The dialogue writers need a very special mention especially for the dialogue "Maine aise aadmi se pyar kiya jo kisi aur ka chaand hai.. toh voh mera sooraj kaise ban payega?"πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ» (Dev is the moon of someone else..how can he become my sun) - which is probably why Dev was never able to satisfy both Ishwari and Sonakshi at the same time. Even though this realisation can temporarily give some relief to Sona, the permanent solution will only come when everyone bases their relationship without "exepectations" and simply "trust" that the other person cares enough for us. πŸ˜Š❤️

The "trust" that Asha asked Rounita to have in the Bose family was a priceless advice. πŸ˜Š Like Ishwari once said, a family is like a plant..and a new comer in a family is like the new leaf and branch and has to be protected by the whole family.. Its the plant's duty to take care of its new leaves and its the leaves' duty to trust the plant. The Bose family is a good example of such a family..

Even though Ishwari was wise enough to understand this, she failed to instill this trust in Sonakshi for the sheer fear of losing Dev's affection and warmth. But Dev and Sona can still make it all work just by trusting each other. Thanks to Asha for the million dollar advice! I cannot wait for Dev's return to the Dixit home and Sonakshi to express all her feelings to him and rebuild their relationship completely based on "trust".

Eleena married Vicky only based on this "Trust" of love, even though she knew very well that Vicky did not have any moral values. And till date her relationship is only going strong because of the trust she has on him. Time and again Vicky has proved his incapability of being a good father, a good husband, a good businessman or even just a good human. But I am sure that Eleena's constant "Trust" in him has kept their relationship alive. And I hope that this strength that Eleena shows, will one day, change Vicky to be a better person.

Even though I had always thought that Eleena has wasted her life by falling for a guy like Vicky, somehow this week, I started to have some hope in this relationship. Especially after Asha's advice about "Trust". Eleena is such a strong person in the Dixit family, in more than one way. Her heartfelt talk with Dev and Sonakshi definitely introduced them to themselves!! Dev and Sona both got a glimpse of their own hearts in the light of Eleena's speech..Of all the things that Eleena mentioned to Sonakshi about Dev, I particularly liked how she explained that he dwelled in the unfulfilling life for the past seven years and how he can never hate Sonakshi ever!

As the week closed out with many sad sequences, one thing that stood out in my mind was that if the "Family" remains strong, no storm can shake it. But if the family doubts the sincerity of each other, then even a slightest breeze will get the power to uproot it.

Some of the noticeable sequences that are worth mentioning this week:
1. Erica's extra ordinary performance in the tail episode this week.πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ» Sona's heartfelt talks with mama ji and Eleena was much needed for us to see through the wall that Sonakshi has created around herself!
2. Dev's emotional outburst to Sonakshi trying to express the hopeless love he has for her and his helpless state of possessiveness. Especially his comment about her eyes was both romantic as well as drenched with hatred and sorrow - I don't even know who to commend this for. Whether it was the dialogue itself or it was Shaheer's acting ❤️ - that part of the sequence got me very emotional.πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ» 
3. Eleena's sense of belonging to the Dixit family and her interactions with both Dev and Sonakshi are worth mentioning this week! ❤️
4. The Bose family's lighter moments, as usual got us the much needed relief from the heat of stress that prevails in the Dixit family.😊
5. The little kids have been used wisely and aptly in this show like no other show!! Their innocent remarks never fail to explain and clarify the deepest human emotions.❤️❤️

I cannot believe that I am hooked to this TV show for such a long time! It feels that I just started watching this show a few weeks ago! But we have come to 300 episodes milestone ❤️❤️ Our heartfelt wishes to the cast and crew for making a unique show in TV even though it is the same old story and plot of husband-wife-mother-inlaw! πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ» This show has taught us acceptance, sacrifice, trust and loyalty through the different shades of Love ❤️ Three cheers to the best TV show ever! πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»

  1. Brilliant analysis. TRUST is the anchor to which every relationship should be moored to not within family members but also outside family, amongst neighbours, friends and even a man on the road that he is a good human being and will cause no harm. This trust helps to build positivity all around us.
    Indeed this show has lot a lot many things about the complexities of human relationships , its positive and negative aspects, how to retain the positivity and how to reject the negativity. 300 episodes, and I wish the show goes on for ever at least for1000 episodes.
