Adultery Love Sex And War Part 1 : Age Of Darkness

[JohnS112]

Interesting Observations RCF. 


First and foremost , regarding Sonarika's behavior post Dilawar. It is based on the research I did on hypersexuality. There are cognitive studies that states a person suffering from hypersexuality can often resort to developing a want for rough sex nature. A case similar to be found in women who are assaulted in captivity , where they develop pleasure points with the roughness in the way their aggressor did. Here that part of Sonarika is coming out , she in her state , is getting glued into this rough sex part that she believes she will never get with Hemant which is why she once again moved to Vikram as she is aware of his roughness. Plus this arc was done to set up a friendship arc between Ragini and Sonarika and bring in her as the voice of reason and to make the "reveal" of Sonarika's mental state in the future. Plus there must be some level of separation between Hemant and Sonarika to have the characters evolve in the future.


Sonarika's mind in itself is a war of her conscience. She does want Hemant back but she also knows she doesn't deserve him as every time she has only hurt him. And now that reality has solidified in her , she now knows her reality. By the end of last chapter she has accepted there is no hope for her to find any chance of rebuilding her relationship with Hemant as she herself is a mess. The final part of last chapter was Sonarika accepting her state and putting the reality before her that she cannot be the woman that built Hemant's family in the past. This is her accepting she cannot redeem their relationship.


Also  Sonarika didn't cheat just because of the roughness , but rather during the start of their affair , Hemant was struggling as a person. He didn't give time for her , to spend some family time. And by the time he got back in shape and shaping their future , it was already too late. So its not just rough sex that was the reason for her affair. However , she is also a character that understands her sins , so she accepts what she has done and is willing to face the consequences for it even now.


As for the relationship with Tamanna , I mean it was pretty obvious why it went that route. Tamanna already has her own tragedies , way before Hemant , she has her own problems with feelings and love. Even she confessed her little stunt with Sandeep was just her attempt at a fling and to distance herself from Hemant. And Hemant already has trust issues and his faith in love is broken. So he knows he cannot commit to Tamanna. But one thing Tamanna and Hemant has is desire for each other. And that desire is their bridge to each other. One thing Tamanna appreciates is Hemant doesn't judge her , and Hemant appreciates she being there for him in his rough times bringing some humanity in his life. Which is why their start of the relationship is a full on sexual affair that may or may not pave the way for a more serious relationship. Either way they will be committed in the future , be it friends with benefits or a potential couple. Their bond is formed on faith , not trust. 



As for Pranitha , she even in my mind is what I concieve the perfect woman for Hemant. Because Pranitha's character not only matches Hemant Kumar , it can also have the potential to connect with Michael King as well. She is kind of a blend between Sonarika and Ashnoor , but her attitude and approach is far different from either of these women. Pranitha lived a life in the world of royalty and at times seen the world of espionage and criminal activities. She can be that perfect confidante for Hemant Kumar/Michael King. She is adventurous in life , even her lifestyle is something that can help Hemant eventually connect with her as she likes doing new things in personal space. They have the potential to be an unconventional couple with great chemistry. There will be some interesting angles to explore them for and this will bring an intersting angle that will culminate in the finale of Part 1.


As for Jagjeet's arc , he was obviously posessive of his daughters when they were little , post Samhita's death , he is pretty shaken up. And Sonarika's accident weakened him further , which paved the way for Meghna to control and influence Sonarika's life further. as Sonarika used to trust her as a sister and was a secret keeper of her boyfriend Rocky's existence. Her father even though loved her , he was pretty shaken with Sonarika's accident as he thought he lost her too. In a way he did as he was unaware of Sonarika's change until he found out about her affair with Rocky , which made her come to Mumbai with him. He is pretty protective of her after her breakup but ended up welcoming Hemant because Sonarika wanted him. Even though his character's role is very minimal , he has a key importance in the revenge arc between Meghna and Sonarika.



Not all love angles start with a slow burn. And believe me I tried , but I made the conscious decision with sex because that is the only way there can be justice to a character like Hemant. If I don't do that , Hemant will end up being the same Hemant , and that arc will not suit him. However this new Hemant Kumar forged with the raptures of Michael King approaches life differently. And that life demands his character to go all out, even though his fault is barely minimal. For him the arc gets bigger and the potential of Tamanna and Pranitha also gives a vibrant future ahead. Because now , Hemant is no longer bound to Sonarika , he is liberated from her , free to be his own man , a man with a vibrant identity.

Hemant may not be bound to Sonarika…but will will never get liberated. What can one make out of a hero.. if his wife leaves him for another man..,and he doesn’t fight back. To claim what has always been his. More so after the last chapter, when he sees Sonarika with Vikram in the flat. What does this make him….an unwilling cuckold…..who can’t do anything about his wife…soon to be divorced…but still his wife…getting fucked by her lover in his flat….this is not Micheal….nor is he Hemant….he is just a cuckold….may be unwilling.

Hemant always spent some time with his family…since beginning…It was always Sonarika…after she met Vikram, she was busy in lovemaking and didn’t have time for family. Leaving her son and husband(who’s working) for a sexual affair shows her concern for her son…leave apart her husband….and she continues to do it.. hell she wants rough sex when it was how Dilawar treated her…she would’ve wanted comfort…tender sex…to overcome the tragedy..yet she went to Vikram to be dominated. One would not want to repeat the experience of hell..and would want to be loved and cared. That’s what Hemant did, alas she still wanted Vikram…why just because Meghna told her so….what about others…Hemant, her son, her sister..nothing…but Meghna matters much.

Again..she gets everything …loving husband in Vikram…her son…her so called sister….good life….guardian angel….what could have she asked for…as for not accustomed to household chores…Vikram can arrange a maid at least…that’s not punishment for the sins she did…further…what about Vikram…nothing for breaking a loveable and happy family. For what…his in fluctuations…initially…nothing…

And who gets hurt…Hemant…the great Micheal king…who then takes out his frustrations on different women….he still is the biggest loser in the story..whatever he does now….i thought with a strong hero story would be different….however…it is still the same….
Husband loses his wife to someone he feels is better in bed…..no difference apart from fighting sequences.if I think about the overall plot.

I must say in the end…these are just rumblings about the story I liked on this site, thinking it would do justice to the hero. A wonderfully written story by a fantastic writer. Alas, I guess, this is what this site is about. Overall…a fantastic story…which keeps the readers hooked as to what is coming next….

Apologies to the writer if I have stepped the line… you are an absolutely wonderful writer with a great thinking and writing skills. Continue with it. Looking forward to many of great updates…
