Mulla shethani is in no state to listen. Her anger is uncontrollable. There is only one thought dominating her mind, “What should I do with this girl ?” Just then, she sees a pair of scissors. She picks it up and starts to cut off Chandana's silky long, black hair.
A woman's beauty lies in her hair and hair therefore, is dearest to any woman. On top of this, Mulla shethani continues her verbal attack on Chandana. “It is because of this hair you are so dear to my husband. Today, I will do away with your hair and then I will see how my husband likes you!"
After totally chopping off her hair, she taunts Chandana and says, “I have cut off all your hair which you used as a tool to trap my husband!”
Keeping herself calm, Chandana, very genuinely replies, “Mother, if removing my hair makes you happy, then it makes me happy too."
Listening to this, Mulla shethani is even more infuriated as she did not expect this answer. She wants to see Chandana irritated and distressed, but Chandana is calm and composed, she does not lose her control.
The shethani then brings a pair of shackles and shouts at Chandana, “I will only get peace when I tie you up with these shackles and lock you up in a room.”
In this way, due to manifestation of some paap karmas, Chandana ends up in a dark room of the mansion. Once a princess and now a captive! What a turn of fortunes !!!
What are Chandana's thoughts ? Does she blame the shethani ? Does she harbor any malice in her mind for the lady whom she looks upon as her mother ? No...! Chandana thinks, “I too must have harmed someone, cut someone's hair. I too must have given pain to someone. That is why I am in this condition today.”
What we give to nature, it gives back to us. Not only that, it gives back with interest.
