" Woh meri zindagi ka,
Aik unkaha qissa hai,
Mujh ko kar day mukumal,
Aisa zaroori hissa hai. "
And she asked me what set them apart, I told her I'd end up writing a book.
Based off my #IconicShivika thread, presenting a comprehensive and periodical...
Satrangi SSO has always had a million shades to his personality. As each one slowly reveals, it's always a sheer pleasure to witness each. Shivaay firmly believes in and maintains the differentiated existence of a public, personal & intimate space.

He keeps barriers between each intact. Yet when need arises he chooses to be a little more open, do what he does best, set things straight. Today he chose to enlighten his family about his views regarding family planning, given he was hesitant initially.

Shivaay believes that like all affairs of a person's life, this too should be based on personal decision making power. Our thought processes may be influenced by third parties as we weigh different options, but the final decision should be ours.

Like any individual who learns overtime, he claims to have taken time to grasp this idea. But from falling for a woman his heart approved of to intimacy with his wife to choosing to have children and when, he believes this should be the couple's decision.

Shivaay isn't ready to once again let worldly pressures influence him into making a choice. And though he thinks it is a personal matter, he isn't afraid of admitting or discussing his choice, even if intended to show things from a different light.

Shivaay is a money minded businessman, a loving husband, a responsible son, a caring brother/brother-in-law and he is a fatherly figure already, but only wants to be a father when he and his wife both are actually prepared to take on this responsibility.

(P.S.: Today's entire episode was based on Shivaay's perspective. Then question arises about what Annika feels. But I believe 1) this issue required one opposing view, it would be ineffective if both shared the same perspective. So there had to be an elaborate discussion. 2) Shivaay hasn't imposed any decision as of now and repetitively uttered, "the couple should have a kid when BOTH are ready for it" so even though today he did all the talking he does acknowledge the fact that Annika's opinion matters. 3) There is always a tomorrow. It isn't possible that Annika doesn't have anything to say, agreement, disagreement or further discussion, it's upon her & how she analyses what Shivaay said, it will come up His POV was too elaborate for her one to be incorporated too right now. Lastly yes this issue was personal and that's how he wanted to keep it. But an anxious curious Annika wanted an answer right now and his family had completely different views. Even with intimacy he wanted to keep it private yet he did discuss because of opposing views. Yes the matter is still very personal but when such topics are under-discussed because of privacy concerns & shyness, following generations sheepishly follow the "traditions" that should be discussed, discussion is a healthy activity & a necessity.)
