On that note, welcome to another analysis of another good episode - revealing more layers of more characters tonight. And of course, everyone should be excited about tomorrow's MayRalicious episode, based on the precap, it is supposed to be. Another chapter of Maya's life will be unveiled and Rudra will be drawn in further towards Maya.
Nandini - I don't know about others, but I found that woman annoying as hell. I just could not stand her and her typical mommyish tendencies tonight - be it invading Maya and Rudra's workspace, bringing food for everyone, trying to play cupid-cum-friendship angle between Maya and Rudra, or plain and simple pushing Ananya out of the picture as Rudra's possible bride. She was annoying and sweet at the same time. She brought food for everyone and Rajiv just scooted off to taste her food - just to lighten up the atmosphere, but Maya being Maya, does not appreciate interference in her life. I had mentioned early on that Nandini is simply delusional. It is not possible that the husband and son abandon both mother and daughter for no good reason. It was quite predictable to me that probably both are dead and she believes her husband and son abandoned them because she could not take the mental shock - so Maya just plays along with her mother's antics. Which I feel rather sad about - because Maya is all alone basically. Her father and brother are dead, her mom is there and still isn't - it is rather lonely for her.🤔
Adamant Rudra - Why is Rudra so interested in Maya's life? She doesn't interfere in his. She may be interested to weaponize him against Mrityunjay, but that's it. She is no way taking a peek-a-boo into his life. She attempts to just share a pure business relation with Rudra. It is Rudra who always takes an interest in her personal life - since he first saw her panic seizures and her love for her mom. After that, the wardrobe issue, which he awkwardly solved and also by self-admission acknowledged her glamour and beauty. And on the same night, she supposedly saved his mom, which he is grateful for. But in all these instances what is noteworthy that Maya is the most natural here - because these situations are created when Maya is not approaching him with any agenda in mind. He gets angry when she is a mystery to him and when she is her real self - he is most drawn to her. It is this nature of his which will help her in the long run - whether it is finding out Maya's truth, helping Maya in her quest for revenge and justice or keeping Maya all to himself for his love - because he is so against love, and if he does fall, more than Maya driving him crazy, it will be the other way round.
Rishi's amateur attempts to maturity - So Rishi is really a kid who is finding it hard to come out of the shadow of being Mrityunjay Roy's son. Working 10 hours a day and earning 15000 isn't his cup of tea, because he gets more pocket money than he can earn. This shows how weak-willed and dependent he is on his father. So how can Maya depend on him as a weapon to use against Mrityunjay. He is not like Rudra to rise to a challenge like the 3-day safari he endured with Maya and won it. His will and challenge begin and end with his scoreboard on girls. But honestly, I feel that Maya is using her designs on the wrong person. His will is too weak to handle her and in the end, he may just turn towards Mrityunjay to help him out of the mess, like always. Like Rajiv told Maya, Bacchha hai wo Maya, bhaag jayega. I am still trying to understand this game of Maya - because I don't think her plan to make Rishi independent will work. In the end, he will dump her and cower away into the shadow of his father. Rudra only stands a chance against Mrityunjay, in Maya's game.
Diya 'the hidden card' - D Aunty is not as sweet and pleasant as the CVs have shown her to be. She has her own inner demons which Mrityunjay knows of, and probably she is his partner in crime to his misdeeds. The way she told Mrityunjay zeher de do usse, shows how delightful a friend she is for Antara. Now I am sure Diya is responsible for Antara's addiction so that she remains the real partner to Mrityunjay and Antara stays a puppet in her hands. I won't be surprised if it is revealed that they don't just share crimes but share the bed as well.🤢
Rajiv, Ananya, and Nandini - On a lighter note I would add, this trio is delightful. They are so funny and kind of trapped in between Maya and Rudra. The way Nandini was pestering Rajiv to stop Maya and Rajiv for his life would not enter the cabin and when Ananya tries the same, Nandini very conveniently changes her stance to unhe suljhane do, tum kyun kebab me haddi banti ho😆
Well, that is my ramblings for tonight. Please share yours
