So will come straight to point why I have a big disagreement to the core theme of how our hero might have felt at his end. <br />"Once a donor... " - I feel it demeans entire acts of charities throughout his life. Warrior with superior skills, he had been quite a human character in flesh and blood with many flaws, but sure his defect density curve stopped remarkably low with time (Chopra’s might have shown him all very smiling in the “Vastra-haran” episode (did they?), I would rather not believe that). He might have had love for his victor’s wife till the end, or might not. But after so many years after refusal, only ordinary Ram-Shyam-Paul-Dick will still carry that as hidden bitter remorse causing ill-digestions, and publicly donate a lot to all CM relief funds to earn fame. <br />Our hero, being well above that level of ordinary mortals, sure had his skills (not just weapons) better perfected. I would rather love to believe when they both met on battleground (given their respective backgrounds and lifetime, particularly the victor enlightened with Geeta) were at the ultimate stage (or at least near) a true warrior can achieve, which is to lay down his sword (royalty for the philosophy goes to film “Hero”)<br />p.s.: love the way of keeping minute details in mind (e.g. pre-pin era)Sibendunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6855248342256284358.post-85278670135349542602011-05-28T17:13:52.095+05:302011-05-28T17:13:52.095+05:30great piece.It touched my heart and soul.great piece.It touched my heart and soul.aditeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12715019430776928692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6855248342256284358.post-81171076504310859652011-05-26T12:25:34.620+05:302011-05-26T12:25:34.620+05:30Deponti, Sumana, Sagar, Tamal, Rashia, Apoorva: Th...Deponti, Sumana, Sagar, Tamal, Rashia, Apoorva: Thanks.<br /><br />Anonymous-with-the-longest-comment: I appreciate the line-by-line criticism.

Anonymous says: "...Once an O-, always an O-. <br /><br />Anonymous says: "And the darky’s reason for that post-coital weeping was not that of pleasure but of pain." But there WAS NO post-coital weeping ! That is the whole point- where pain and pleasure blur their definitions and create something complex, inexplicable. <br /><br />Ovda, once done with Palace of Illusions, give it to Bhabhi. She will have a ball. <br /><br />Also, why the emphasis on 'taboo', especially in a 5-husband marriage? May be I am forgetting some link. <br /><br />She was just attracted to him, she did not really love him.debipriyanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6855248342256284358.post-68571019374514809422011-05-22T04:46:23.538+05:302011-05-22T04:46:23.538+05:30"she'd possibly rejected HIM..."
