1. Happy to see Mani in a completely different avataar, but it appears a show that focuses on the girl and her family. Mani is secondary - at least, that's what it looks like at present. 😭
2. We had to go through 30 minutes of rather confusing, and long-winded, introductions on Delhi, DD's disorderly family, her Chandni Chowk working environment (including its numerous loose-dangling electro wires...) - till Mani aka Sardarji Truck Driver showed up.

3. Mani must have had such fun portraying the Sardarji 😛- but why was he made to make such a caricature of that character in the bargain? 😕
For one thing his beard and makeup were so obviously fake, only a Dumbo would not have seen through the disguise. And then why was he made to be in that so-called drunk state? As if all Sardar truck drivers are drunks

4. Why also is the police shown in such a bad light? The intro was not particularly encouraging about Delhi Police's role, then the way DD is shown to be thinking about their work and lambasting them. Then, our Sardarji aka Inspector Sahib may have had the upper-hand at the Thana, but why were the other policemen made to act so stupidly?

Prelim conclusion: mmm - let's see further, tomorrow 😆

Ha...not to prejudice you, or anyone else for that matter 😛
I wrote as a Delhi-ite of several decades, a member of a police family, and an incorrigible Manishian - what to do😆

The first half of the episode was like the recap of Hitler Didi for me
The voiceover by Sandeep Baswana aka Munna of Hitler Didi. Tharki Inder Sharma and his wife Kutumb Sharma...their daughter and son-in-law (ghar jamai) Indira and Rishi...sab ke names repeat kiye hain toh InShi ki beti ka naam retain kar lete
Rishi and Indira's daughter's name was Indu Sharma. May be Bunty is her nick name...her real name is indeed Indu 🤔
character wise Bunty is carbon copy of Indira aka Hitler Didi...only their professions are different
I already knew the show is about DD and Bhim will not get as much prominence as DD...so i wasn't surprised or shocked.
Not only Sonia and Manish...all actors are playing their characters well.
I was just uncomfortable watching that child's dead body scene...rest everything was good.
I think i would give the epi 8.5/10
