Bit of a different song from the CV's in this episode.
In the episode when Maya came to see Arjun (when he had taken leave), the dialogue just before her entry was museebat. Today the dialogue was khushi.
While Vandana stepping away did look a bit bad, in hindsight it was a mix of shock and the fact that Maya was effectively taking the place of her beloved Saanjh. Maybe she could've gone for a better dialogue- "arre nahi beta, iski zaroorat nahi hai" or something, if she didn't want to give aashirwad to Maya.
If Saanjh accepts ArYa, Vandana and Ayaan will fall into line- their greatest hindrance to accepting Maya is because of the hurt that it would cause Saanjh, and it's obvious they'll take Saanjh's side for now given how long the families have known each other.
Maya throwing flames at Vandana and Saanjh was great to watch- "jo rishte aaj bane hai, woh nahi tutenge" and "iski aadat dal lijiye" amongst others. She did taunt Vandana and Saanjh a bit- a stern, but subtle warning not to take Arjun away from her.
Arjun is definitely falling for Maya- let's see how the serial pans out, given what the panditiji has said 😆
PS- nice to see the ArYa scene shot in one frame with both the leads.
PPS-in the other thread (too much mud slinging going on there!), someone mentioned about JW's curls. I thought they looked lovely in the epi. No complaints from me atleast.
