Who is susanna's 7th husband in the movie? Is it Jesus Christ? If yes how can u call it the saatvan khoon(7th murder) & is there any concept in Christianity that if u become a nun/sister, u accept Jesus as ur husband?
shareseventh husband is god, since she has become a nun and now lives her life in devotion to God.
shareYes there is a concept in Christianity and all nuns are considered as wives of Jesus Christ.
The original story on which the movie is based has the title "Susanna's 7 husbands". So that title is absolutely correct as she kills her 6 husbands and the 7th Husband is Christ.
However the movie has the title 7 khoon maaf. But it theory she kills her 6 husbands only. I believe the 7 murder is more of a metaphor in the movie.
Yes, the seventh killing of Husband (God) is metaphorical to loss of moral order. There is a German philosophy which says that the death of god represents the society when it looses complete moral order also the establishment of Nihilism. So by marrying Jesus and then killing her belief in the universal moral law and religion she resurrects her true self with no moral order.
Other way to look at it is that She willfully wanted to punish the god for the horrible things she went through in her life. Since she kills all her husband - she does so by marrying Jesus. But then I feel, the confession scene doesn't suit to this logic.
7 khhon = 6 husband + 1 crazy dog :)
shareI think it is fairly obvious if you are familiar with Christian Mythology,the seventh husband is Jesus Christ.She becomes a nun and "marries" Christ by taking a vow of celibacy from that point on.Secondly,there are very obvious hints she drops,first she tells Arun that her seventh husband is already dead,second and the more stronger hint,she says this time I'm going to drink his blood which is a reference to the Transubstantiation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transubstantiation ) ritual which Christians perform in church,eating the bread dipped in wine which is supposed to be Christs' blood.
shareJesus is her 7th husband, thats pretty obvious in the movie. But why does Susanna say 7 sins? I think this is the explanation- According to Bible Jesus died to repent for the future sins committed by all christians. Susanna has played her part in killing Jesus already.
What I did not understand is the last statement by vivaan- this time she is truly dead.
I thought that was a symbolic death - she was not her old self any more, hence dead.
shareagree with rohithimself we are all responsible for it
shareJesus is her 7th husband

That's what is in the FAQ but I don't buy it. She was not responsible for UU's death. It was an accident, hence not a "khoon" (murder). I doubt if she knew that UU was in the house before it was too late. Besides, there was her butler as well who died. In some way, her 7th murder was either of herself (real or symbolic) or of Jesus (symbolic).
shareJesus is her 7th husband and she killed 6 husbands and 7th herself in a matter of social and as a normal woman..she left Susanne the person in her and become nun thats how she killed her self in that matter. in the end also vivaab shah says to konkana sen sharma that she is dead. :)
