three things worth mentioning about todays episode would be : Antara's evolution towards Raghu.
When she came across a rule in the basti that was directed by Raghu today , she did not go and fight against , in what her perception is termed as "injustice" , "rigid" , "orthodox" or almost dictatorial.Had it been the Antara in the first few episodes we have seen , she would have walked in boiling anger across to Raghu and shrieked out the problem he created in front of the entire basti or almost slap him. As she would rightly put it , "you think you are the leader of this basti and you can do whatever you want , whether it is banning transportation from school for one political figure or anything else.😡" But what does the Antara we see now , do? She walks back to Raghu , and like any other cordial friend, tells him the problem with the rule he made , and asks him to help her change it. Would we have ever imagined Antara to evolve this much as a person only towards one guy who according to her moral rule code book is an illegal gangster? I loved the transformation in her solely towards Raghu. It's come around a long, long way.
Raghu's evolution towards Antara.
Had Antara ever come with a problem towards him , can we imagine him fighting against Manohar and everyone else just cause Antara was having difficulties with a rule made for Daya Maai? Yes this thing is different that he believes whatever Daaya Maai does is right and just , as he's been nurtured by her after his first crime and sees her as a person who saved his life after his mom died. So we can understand why Raghu says that if Daya Maai were here , she would say the same thing. But warning and shouting against Manohar like that just when Manohar went verbally attacking on Antara when she was only stating her opinion was absolutely fascinating. The guy doesn't even let the wind touch Antara now , I mean the level of protection , possession and care he has for her now is unbelievable.Had it been before, he wouldn't bother listening to her and ignore her , like he did in the beginning when she asked him to give her the money for the broken glass. He wouldn't tolerate someone telling him to change his rules , bend them or abolish them or even telling him what to do , let alone going and changing it on the spot for them. Raghu , as well , has come around a long , long way in evolving towards Antara , though he is still the same person . However , just like Antara, he has changed solely towards her , like she has towards him. If love has not blossomed yet fully , and yet he can fight for whoever it is when it comes to Antara now , then I have no doubt, that when they finally come into terms with their feelings , just like in the promo , the guy will go against everyone and everything for her.
And btw , did you see that crooked stare and smile Manohar gave towards Rantara as they were walking back together smiling at each other? It's almost as if he could smell the evolution of their equation and realize that not only have they evolved towards each other , but they are on the way of falling in love with each other , and that crooked smile just shows , that now that he has sensed their evolved proximity , he is going to take full advantage of that opportunity.More than we know. At one point , Manohar bullied Antu's uncle for Antara's voice against Raghu , and Raghu didn't bother considering it . But now if anyone even goes against Antara other than him , he literally shuns them. And trust me when I say . Manohar literally sensed that. He could see what both of them can't really see or come into terms with , yet.
And a special mention for the promo :
The thing I have always loved about Antara is she fights for what's right , isn't afraid to call a spade , a spade and does so by being calm and composed , without any typical Indian female lead hyper activity, and for a hindi tv heroine , that really is commendable. I missed that tough Antara with a composed demeanor , who angered , intrigued and shocked everyone around her including Raghu for never being influenced by anyone but herself. Raghu at first had problems with her because she pricked at his bloated ego and status in the basti and called him exactly what he is.Of course along the way , Antara and Raghu have both softened towards each other a hell lot. But with Daya Maai's entry , I have realized that Antara won't stop being herself for anyone and I am happy that the cvs have not discontinued the tone of her character. A girl who marches to the beat of her own drum and isn't afraid to stand up for what is right, and in the promo that is exactly what we see. She is back to telling anyone in the world whether it is Daya Maai or anyone else , that her practices and everything she does is WRONG\ILLEGAL. She has done it before with Raghu and she can always do it again , and like we see in the promo , she does exactly that. But if Raghu belongs to the world of wrong , then Daya Maai is the ruler of all the wrongs. So it's like the right and good versus the queen and master of bad , with the most important disciple of the "bad world's" ruler, hanging in between both worlds.Daya Maai will hate Antara the very reason why Raghu initially hated Antara and that is because of her ruthless honesty and her continuous seeking of justice. This is gonna be fun. 😃
