Great take Diya!! I too thought that the pace has increased... but I really loved the way CC has handled the revelation... the real fireworks start now!


Question of the day... traditional bahu shaadi se pehle husband ka naam tattoo karvathe hai kya ( I do know that even in villages they do something close to a tattoo... but before marriage?)...

Too much logic?

Abhi score rakhe ki padi... spirit ji where are you? I hope that CC knocks out UB in one fell swoop... but then the serial will be over...😆

Am worried about the pace... seems too fast!


Ash, the 30 day challenge was just the first track ... with this, Umaben's first plan of getting rid of CC will flop and CC will be well established in the family.

After this, the clash between the two regarding modern and traditional will start ... plus dealing with all the dysfunctional relationships within the family ... so they have a long while to go ...

Tattoo was a quick way of getting the Sonali-Chhanchhan confrontation, I guess ... they could have done it in the park too ... since they had already met there ... don't know why they chose this way. Maybe to keep CC's family in the loop? We haven't had any Sarabhai family scenes for a while ...

The episode was fast paced and good. So, much happened in twenty minutes. The entire yoga session was hilarious. The interactions between the brothers was comic. The icing on the cake of course was UB getting trapped to do yoga 😆

The tattoo parlor scene was engineered for Chhanchhan and Sonali to meet. So, Sonali has not seen a photo of Manav, she does not recognize him in the park?!! She blindly follows what her father says? Best to go with the flow... Logic and daily soap rarely the two go together, until the creatives cover it up somehow in the coming episodes.

If we gloss over this... the show is at an interesting point and looking forward to see what ChanMan will do one's UB's mask is off. Interesting times ahead.

P.S. Thank you to creatives for reworking the flashback 👏

DDji is fast turning into one of my favorite characters in this show right now...despite all his weird ways. But grandparents are just too adorable esp when they come with all these idiosyncrasies...he is turning out to be one of them. Ok so why so much praise? UB baby UB😈. I hope the yoga sessions or Pranayams will be made mandatory for her from now on. So for that, DDshould get some points too. Don't ask where and how they fit except understand that you need scores to understand who is winning the game, Nevermind how the scores are calculated, as long as CC is winning..😆🤣 DejaVu?

So the fresh scores are UB goes up to -2 from -8
CC 8, up by two points.
DDji 2 I'm not sure how this fits into the scheme of things yet🤣

The best part of the epi was that regression into the past sans the blinkfest! Sigh what a pleasant surprise :D

I feel like CC suddenly figuring out things can only mean that the haldi milk was indeed useful, in ways UB had not imagined!

Ok that aside, what's with the pace of this show?? It's speeding!!

ps. I regret to inform you all that since the credibility of these scores have been questioned, this is the last of the score you will know of. ...and this lets admit, is kinda turning lil crazy!😆

pps. plz follow back up in a months time, when I will possibly return but with same scoring system😎

Nope. I think they are going at just the right pace. To get where they need to. The gloves are finally coming off!! Cannot wait for the confrontation. Of course, it will be done in an intelligent 'modern' way, eh? "Dimmag" se! It will be fun to see how the dynamics in this household change, since now both Chhan Chhan and Manav know the true colors of the Great Dragon Lady and mommy dearest!!
Oooh! I am just loving Chhan Chhan. Especially, because Manav is 110% with Chhan Chhan. Like a true hubby should be.
Still don't understand UB mindset. Does she really think Manav would leave Chhan Chhan? She must have planned a really big exposee for this to happen!
This episode surprised me, because the usual Indian way would be for the wife to hide things from the hubby and suffer in silence. Way to go CVs for thinking outside the box!!👏
Cannot wait for the next episode!!

well the episodes r very fast paced!! not that I am complaining.. ts refreshing.. but i wouldn't have minded if they had dragged it to about 2-3 episodes either..

anyway fab post di as always!

hehe short n sweet.. CC thought about another way to say thank u cz at least this hubby n wife gets regular action every night thus she wanted to do something differnt (considering locking the door behind them during day time in that house doesn't seem possible! :p ) thus she cannot reward him with anything special that he anyway doesn't already get ☺️.. as the most special is a regular thing for them! 😛

Yoga session was a laugh.. I liked what UB ended up getting lol..
anyway Manav is so much one track minded when he wants to help his pyari wife! haha much to specially manthan's consternation! :p
i love the interactions b/w the bros now.. its more natural now..not rigid as it used to be.. lol.. small squabbles n stuff in grown men is kinda cute lol..cz siblings r like that.. no matter how old u r..u still can be that 5 year old when wth them.. :D

aww adorable scene of ChanMan...

n oooh waiting to know what happens when Manav gets confirmation too..

Imagine how DL would score this match?

UB -18 at the end of 30 days
CC has to get to 19 to win in the last 15 days 🤣 but there are only 10 days left since she found out abt UB's evil ways.

Yikes! Diya will banish me to the outer fringes of this forum if this silly spam continues any further on her thread.

No Duckworth-Lewis, Ash. Its in favour of the team batting first and thats UB in this case. 😆
