In the latest season of “Aarya,” Sushmita Sen and director Ram Madhvani have brilliantly broken away from the clichéd portrayal of a sacrificial mother. The third season kicks off with Aarya, played by Sen, taking charge of her husband Tej’s empire after his death. The transformation in Aarya’s character is palpable – from a scared mother in the earlier seasons, she evolves into a fierce and powerful figure, dressed in all-black attire that complements her newfound confidence.
Aarya’s Internal Struggles Amidst New Challenges
Sen portrays this change remarkably, showcasing both Aarya’s strength and vulnerability. She brings depth to her character by balancing the assertive persona with glimpses of the old Aarya, ensuring a compelling performance. Her eyes, reflecting fear and newfound power, tell a story of internal struggle.
The season introduces new villains, adding layers to the plot. Indraneil Sengupta portrays Suraj, driven by vengeance, and Ila Arun plays Nalini Sahiba, a powerful and cunning adversary. While these characters add intensity to the series, the real battle lies within Aarya herself. Despite her external strength, she grapples with her conscience, trying to protect her children from her own dark choices.
Aarya’s Transformation in the new season
A significant aspect of this season is Aarya’s eldest son, Veer, portrayed convincingly by Viren Vazrani. Veer’s character provides a mirror to Aarya, reflecting the consequences of her actions. Despite her flaws, viewers find themselves cheering for Aarya because, at her core, she is a determined working mother striving for a better life for her children.
The season delves into the complexities of power, revenge, and the internal struggles faced by Aarya. It portrays her as more than just a one-dimensional character, evolving her into a dreaded gangster yet retaining her status as a tragic hero. The series captivates the audience not only with its engaging storyline and new adversaries but also by delving into the human emotions and dilemmas that make Aarya a relatable and compelling character.
