Nice post Shruthi.
But you know what I found interesting, it was Arjun who termed their love "Beyhadh" not Maya. So maybe one day he's gonna love her with the same intensity and passion and junoon(his choice of words not mine). I always thought that Maya's going to use the word "beyhadh" but it's a surprise that Arjun used that word instead. So let's see how much "beyhadh" will his love be.
Then again I'm in love with Maya's character. The way she calmly reacted and made Arjun spill the beans was nice. Maya is like a silent volcano, as long as she stays calm and composed no one is hurt but the moment she reacts that'll change every relation and every dimension of the story. That's what is interesting about this character. I really really hope that the creatives keep Maya grey and don't make her negative.
Another thing is till now in the show Maya has never worn black. Even in today's episode she wore red. That gives me hope that the character will not be completely black.(Jenny did look gorgeous in that dress and Kushal was also looking handsome. Just saying.)
After watching the beginning of the episode I thought that Saanjh's going to snap out of this "I love Arjun. My world revolves around him." When she started that lecture about how she was going to face her demons, I was like "very good Saanjh". But no then she had to say that useless dialogue about how her duffer is going to support her, I was like "Woman are you mad. You have your entire family and even Vandana and Ayaan yet the only name you are taking is your duffer's". That dialogue completely put me of. That's why I said that Saanjh doesn't deserve all the love she's getting because she's not valuing any of it.
Another interesting point about today's episode was that Arjun answered Maya clearly when she asked the same dialogue Saanjh asked yesterday. That shows that the only person he wants to share his feelings is with Maya. He comfortably replied her how Saanjh was only his best friend and Maya was is Beyhadh love. I hope he don't go back from his words. The hospital scene was very well taken. None of the things Maya told Arjun were lies and neither were they manipulations. She simply told him the truth and he replied back truthfully. Then they showed how Arjun moved towards Maya's side and how both of then leaned on each other to rest. Isn't that what couples do, lean on each other for support and strength.
The last bit was exciting. Maya, the business tycoon is back and she's ready to fight a battle. Vandana's concern for Maya was good. Looks like she's slowly accepting the fact that Maya's the one her son loves and Maya's the person who keeps her son happy. Good for her.
Finally the press conference. Ashwin Mehrotra got 440 volts jhatka. Maya again proved that she's owns a business empire because she has the brains to handle any situation. With the press conference Maya ensured two things: 1) Ashwin can't attack her directly because at this point if anything happens to her everyone is going to suspect Ashwin 2) She made sure that after hearing her story everyone's going to sympathize with her and support her. So it's going to be difficult for Ashwin to find a pawn against her.
Well played Maya Mehrotra. You proved today that you are perfectly capable of standing up and fighting your battle.
