The most significant relationship in Dr. Ahmar’s life was
with his father. Although this father-son relationship lacked the blood bond
but it had more substantial feelings of affection and friendship. However after his father’s death, Dr. Ahmar’s memory of this relation begins to blur
away. Once he finds out that he doesn’t inherit the house, a sense of rivalry
builds up in him. His father’s last conversation with Dr. Ahmar laid the
foundation for the events to happen. This conversation was merely a reassurance
of his love irrespective of what unfolds in the future,
“Andaza toh tumhein
hai per yakeen bhi ker lena, main ne hamesha tumhein bohat chaha hai”
However, all these declarations bring no fruit. Once he
finds about his father’s family, he starts doubting all that his father ever
did for him. Despite of his education and financial stability, the insecurities
of an orphan emerge out.
“Main ne saari zindagi
muhabbat ke naam pe dhoka khaya hai, wo bhi kisis aur se nahi apne baba se”
When his friend tries to convince him of the genuineness of
his father’s love, he rejects the sympathies claiming that he was only a
distraction for his father to cope with his loneliness.
“Main na hota toh koi
aur hota”
Dhoop Kinaray demonstrates various shades of orphan hood.
One conclusion which can be drawn from this demonstration is that affection is
reciprocated only when undivided love and attention is given to an orphan, as soon
as blood rivalry surfaces on the screen, there is no set course of behaviour which
can be expected from anyone.
