@bold: No, it's not just you! I want to see everything that you have said in a step by step fashion. And you're right, maybe halfway in love wasn't the best choice of words, I think smitten would have been more appropriate to try to convey what I was trying to say, but I just thought that sounded childish for some reason! But yeah at this point MJ is infatuated/smitten with Tara, but at the same time he also feels extremely guilty for what he did to her and that is weighing very heavily on him. So guilt is also a contributing factor to how quickly he is melting towards her. Plus up till now he was dealing with a Tara who adored and depended on him as her ajnabi dost! She trusted him and treated him in a way no one probably has in a really long time. And the fact that her revelation came to him on diwali night when she came in and literally lit up his dark life, well it's no surprise that all the "hatred" he felt for his wife evaporated. MJ has been so starved for love and affection that he was attracted to Tara's warm and loving nature like a moth to fire, and even though there was a mind vs. heart battle raging within him, he found that he couldn't say no to her. Not after everything he had done to her, after everything she had endured at his hands.

But now the tables have been turned. Now Tara is no longer dealing with MJ her dost, but with MJ the husband, who she's supposed to hate more than anyone else in the world. It's going to take her some time to come with the idea that the person she trusted above all and the person she hated more than anyone are the same. And I really don't blame her, I mean her entire world has been thrown off axis and she feels utterly and totally betrayed. She also doesn't know how long MJ has known that she was his wife, so to her he might have been playing her all along. So until she reconciles the fact that her husband and friend are the same person, MJ is going to be facing Tara's exponential hatred, and it will be very fascinating to see how he deals with that. Just like this episode marked the death of "Neil aka the ajnabi dost", it also marked the end of MJ's manhandling and physical abuse towards Tara. His game of trying to get her away from his life before she realizes who he is, is over, he has no ammunition left against her because now she knows who he is, knows both sides of him. Tomorrow will mark a new beginning of their story, and while MJ is already at the starting line, Tara still has a long way to catch up to him, time she might not have since MJ is already living on borrowed time.

So it will be very interesting to see how this all unfolds and how Tara's perspective of MJ starts to changed. And like you said, I want this to be a well thought out and compact journey because the last thing I want is a premature love confession. Because for me the best part of a love story is the build up, and if that isn't given it's proper due I lose interest in the story. There is going to be a fair share of angst and pain here and I can't wait for it because that is what will strengthen this story and the bond between these two. I don't want to see a confession any time soon...stretch out the "falling in love" part as far as possible because that is where all the fun is!

I don't know what track the cv's are planning to show after today's revelation...But I don't want MJ to stay in Neil mode in front of her from now on.I want the MJ who shows he isn't bothered by her presence...He needs to maintain tht front. He has been hurt by too many pple & he is doing everything for a reason... I hope we r not resorted to watching a vamp Tara and a pacifying MJ!!!

I don't think this will be a conventional revenge track... because kalavati is already there to take revenge on many people... Tara's anger is justified & her outburst too... She'll deal with him in her own way... on the other hand MJ's anger has also mellowed... now he won't be aggressive with her... not physically at least... & we shouldn't forget that after Nirmala & Kala's plan backfires they'll plan something bigger for both MJ & tara... so they are not out of the trouble yet... so tara won't be able to stay angry with MJ for a long time.

Good post Tanvi, I feel for Tara and MJ both. Tara was totally shattered and shocked. The one person she had grown fond off and trusted most turned out to be her monster husband. She felt like a total fool as if MJ had make a laughing stock out of her. Don't want the revenge track to be stretched too much but with this revenge track playing along Tara will find out may hidden truths abt MJ. Hopefully she would also calm down a bit after the zingging slap she gave to MJ and also think about the good side of him, the caring one, the helpful one then guess she would give him a chance to explain his side too. At present she is super mad at him. Cant blame her the way she was treated by MJ.

Sorry for MJ as he did not get a chance to explain his side of the story. May be he will but guess it would take time.

Love Kala yesterday. The way she taunted her father for letting Kalavati suffer at a young age. The father is not only frightened but also disgusted by Kala's nature. The happiness and pleasure she expressed at MJ gng bck to jail and Tara walking right bck into her hands at being killed. Overall it was a good epi. Oh and enjoyed all the small scns between Tara and MJ's journey it was like he wanted to live all the small moments with her before she goes far away from him.
