Sensing him distant,she asks him whats the matter.He tells her that he thought he would give her all the happiness in the world.But instead he has ben responsible for her suffering,first by refusing to marry her without asking her and now this.He says that he thinks that anandi should give a second thought to their marriage.Anandi calmly asks him would he have posed this question had they already been married.He argues that she has earned a lot of respect in the society through hard work,and he doesnt want to be the reason for her humiliation in the society now.She cups his face in hr hands and tells him that their names are not linked today,they were linked the day they decided to get married,and that day only,all his troubles were hers too.She says that she would try everything possible to get him out of this mess.He has to believe that she is with him all through this with the fullest faith and that would be the basis through which she sees their future together.He looks upto hr with gratitude.The screen freezes on anandi’s tearful face.

Underlying Message: A man with honesty and perseverance always has faith in his work and believes that nothign can go wrong with him.This is his strength as well as his weakness since this leads them to firmly believe that thier faith cant be tampered.
