Summary of Madhu's forceful attempts to have RK reconcile to Ganesha (Oct 1st to 5th October) and RK's answer to Madhu's coercive tactics (Episode 8th October 2012).
WOW!!!! APPLICATION OF FORCE HAS NEVER WON LOVE or FAITH
Madhu sees that today. Rishabh made her realize that. Good!
Madhu does not relent. She now wants her Bappa to help her in taking RK down.
Bad!!!
Madhu needs to understand that every person has a personal equation with God and that is as private as other precious things of our life. She cannot tresspass that sanctity.
Coming to episode analysis on 8th October...
Finally RK gave everything back to Madhu.
Rishabh had been reticent to some extent allowing his wife to celebrate the festival. He believed she would not bother him and let him be living in his room the way he wants, not celebrating.
He had been in "katti" with his Bappa for years now. Its a relationship turned sour. But there was a rishta quietly and fiercely guarded.
But Madhu had to interfere.
Madhu had to be the religioius extremist. She needs everyone to follow the ritualistic traditions. For her believing in Ganapati is tying the mouli, eating the Modak, participating in aarti, partaking the feast prepared ih Bappa's honour.
Rishabh does not do any of these. So does that make him any less believer ? He had a dialogue with Bappa when no one was around. It was a private one. Some people converse with God in all privacy. He may be angry with Bappa, but when his friend came to stay at his house he allowed him to stay as his other family members wanted him to. He did not let the Akhand Jyoti get extinguished. Small gestures of "atithi Satkaar"
Had Madhu let RK alone, none of the drama would have resulted.
She should not have challenged him to come and partake meals or leave things deliberately in the room. That was a COERCIVE TACTIC. Never helps to gain faith. Instead it serves some of us to become more stubborn.
So RK does the Kabab drama and the chawl drama.
The Biwi does not stop making it public about RK's attempts at saving the flame. With that act she inflames Rishabh to become the bad boy and off he takes her to chawl and does what he has to do...to teach her to stay away from rubbing her UNSOLICITED OPINIONS on HIM
I liked it. I have never liked people being forced to observe rituals. Rituals are just means of expression. And Expression happens in countless ways. So why stick to few types, few imaginations.
The Hindi word of POMP...is AADAMBAR. Could not remember if Rishabh/RK used it or not. But he definitely used Tamasha.
So relieved that finally RK and Rishabh spoke today. It was RK speak in the chawl. But it was actually RISHABH KUNDRA who was enacting all the performance.
Since Rishabh Kundra is already a believer, he doesn't need any chamatkar. Its just the battle of wills. Bappa's event, his giant image is enough to invoke all memories within Rishabh. Its then just a fight between happiness and bitterness that the memories provide. Whichever weighs higher on his emotional scale, he is gonna do that.
