23/1 - Epi 19 ... Deception

Thursday 23rd Jan 

Paro calls Rudra 'jallad' and asks his CO to keep him away from her. CO is more sympathetic to her situation and tells her she needs to rest.

Aman makes sure to tell Paro that she's calling Rudra the wrong name ... he just saved her life. Aman did not like Paro calling Rudra 'jallad'!
Paro registers the statement ... Rudra returns and stares at her with reproach hidden in his eyes ... she looks back, the hint of an apology in hers ...
voh bhi hai kuch aadha aadha, voh bhi hai adhoori 
And Rudra spends the rest of the night doing guard duty ... not taking his eyes off her.
Rudra is becoming Othello-esque in his obsession with Paro. He doesn't want to let her out of his sight.

The CO tells Rudra ... keep Paro alive, and make her talk. Rudra has a plan to keep her safe.
The line I really liked from the CO ... the villagers have been fed poison against the BSD with their mother's milk. Make sure we don't add more poison from our side.
A very sensible piece of advice ... would apply to all armed forces stationed in conflict areas where there is always deep distrust from the local population.
Doesn't seem to register much on Rudra though ... judging by his later actions.

Aman isn't happy that Rudra is tying Paro's hands ... their CO said to treat the prisoner with sympathy. Apparently a seat belt is too much sympathy for Rudra ... a rope will have to do.
Besides, do they have seat belts in those jeeps at all?

Aman is doing a Lakshman ... his sister's name was Parvati. I think he's trying to follow his CO's orders to show sympathy to Paro, especially since his boss Rudra is failing so abysmally at it. It works ... somewhat ...
Paro asks, 'was'?
Aman says she died ... had cancer, found release. Paro's eyes show her sympathy, but her own misery comes back to haunt her ... 'wish he could have given me release too ... why did he bother to save me?'
She doesn't want to live, she has nowhere to go, no one to live for ... why did Rudra save her? He can just kill her now.
Rudra saved her because she's his witness, and for no other reason.
Paro is not happy at that ... she gets back at Rudra ... by trying to run away the first chance she gets. She might as well have saved herself the trouble ... Rudra finds her immediately.

That was a temporary glitch for Rudra, nothing more ... they meet another platoon at a meeting point, where Paro will be shifted to a safe spot ... but before that can happen, Rudra's jeep blows up ... with Paro in it. And a very loud stage dialogue from Aman ... 'Oh no, sir ... the girl is dead.' 

News is relayed immediately to Tejawat ... and the man is delighted. Paro baisa, thank you so much for your ultimate sacrifice. 
Thaku-sa is such a deliciously evil villain ... good to see him back. I love the guy! Every time he smiles and raises that one eyebrow!

And Rudra proceeds to fetch Paro from where he has safely hidden her away, handcuffed, of course ... he's not about to trust her an inch, especially after her abortive escape attempt. Paro follows him, but not very wilingly .... kicking and screaming ... and biting ... her mangal sutra falls, and she wants it back ... and what Paro wants, Paro gets ...
And as she stares at her mangal sutra ... the promise of a dream ... Rudra intrudes, her harsh reality ... and tells her with savage intensity ... no one else wants her alive as much as he does.

The world thinks Paro dead ... the deception has succeeded. And Rudra drugs Paro and takes her to a safe spot ... his old home.
