I feel the makers should also explore the point that Sumo really doesn't have actual experience with love enough to know how to recognize her own feelings - and whether or not what she feels is love. Right now she is fixated on the not having time for this because of her life goals angle but side by side, it's also worth noting that she doesn't really have any experience here, that is part of why she is so confused and in denial. She doesn't know how to recognize what she's feeling.

Arey look at her eyes in the precap when she sees Shravan limping on the terrace at night....yeh ladki karegi contact cut? 😆 She is already so attached to Shravan, she doesn't even realize. Yes she's headstrong but she is underestimating the strength of their feelings for each other.

Just trying to add 2 and 2 together... Suman’s reactions were totally as expected including the I dont love you... ladki decided to go all in...

I dont get why they decided to make her push shravan’s button yesterday and got him to confess only to break his heart today... why she did the retreiving the dress from devika was a bit dramatized if she wanted to mention that friends never hide anything...she couldve said the same thing in a more simple manner but i guess she wanted to give him a demo so that he can open up about whatever he's feeling...though my thing from today's episode was that shravan insisted to retain the friendship but she felt guilty that she might continue to hurt him and his growing feelings for her which is still gonna attack her when he for real will maintain the dairaa she wants..

Was it some sort of like we all gonna die one day, lets just pick one thats less painful!

Shravan was already in guilt and burdened yesterday... he was in pain as he lied to the 2 most important women in his life.. His Mumma and His Sumo...

Today, Shravan is broken as he only has 10 days with the woman he truly loves from the bottom of his heart... i think he wants to close this chapter on a happy note that like "yeah i loved someone but she never reciprocated so ah well, love happened but i never received it but learned some lessons which will make him stronger for the future" idk if he's gonna close his the feelings in his heart thereby starting to see a transition to a more mature shravan for future..

So whichever way he goes, he will be the loser..

Suman did the right thing by breaking this friendship... Every little things about him affects her immensely and its high time she comes out of the determined denial mode and realise that she too feel the same for him... And only distances can knock her out of her delusions... +1 a break from this friendship will make her realize the value of what she lost on ...like really think about what she wants in life aside from making career goals..

Like you said, she needs to learn the hard way...

Amazing post as always...

10 din?? Oh forget it ladies ladki is "IN" the very first day itself with her restlessness and pareshani for his "not BFF"

Shravan ki ek filmi jump ne woh kar dia jo aur kuch na kar saka🤣 btw plz tell me I wasn't the only one laughing at the edit at that part like it legit looked like they forgot to edit it well and just kept the shot where mohit jumped to fall it looked jaan bhuj ke maari jump than a thokar🤣

LOL yes, in many ways, Ladki is already "IN" without realizing it 😆. But ab itna directly bol diya hai ki she doesn't love him, toh isko shock hi lagega when she realizes how 'IN' love she is😆.

The entire running wala scene in the end was funny to me yaar😆.....including the jump/fall in the end. LOL

LOLL oh that's why? I was also wondering why you are breaking your reply into so many posts😆.....haha@ IF acting like Sumo😆

Jokes apart, I hate it when this happens too.....IF gets really random and weird with this "abusive words" error when there is nothing in the post😕😆

abh khud hi decide karle ki she really loves him or not like let the girl come to if she wants to ..but why leave the APS school for tho??i miss his interaction with saheb, khurana, bakshi toh unone kya bigada h

LOL Shravan ke liye whatever Sumo says, has to happen....so if she doesn't want him around her after 10 days, he is willing to take extreme measures like even leaving the city and country....he even made a reference ki US toh hai hi as backup 😆. Maybe that's what it will come to....he might try to leave the country only and by then Sumo will realize she can't stay without him so she won't let him leave.😆

haha, ladki h harqat kabhi kabhi irony hi lgti h i mean she's never felt the love feeling before so its understandable as to why she's feeling flustered out as of now..but i dont get as to why she's so fixated on the fact that she doesnt have time for love when in reality she's hanging out with shravan a lot and she liked his companylol her social distancing plan is going to backfire on her bigtime..

LOL Sumo has a special case of mental block. She is not able to see how she already makes so much time for Shravan in her life even as she claims she has no time for anything other than her life goals.

So basically she will now realize the extent to which she is already attached to him.....calling it love won't change what already exists in many ways. Maybe she's more freaked out by the label of love but otherwise she's also pretty much wanting to spend all her free time with Shravan and constantly thinking about him😆.

Can absolutely see this happening😆👍 Shravan jidd pe aa jaye toh paahad bhi ukhad lega😆

Sumo's decision was mature and logical but has loops. Aur aise decide karke toh waise hi aur guilty feel hoga Sumo ko.

Hoping her mind's closed doors are sprung wide open into realization😆

Great post as always! 👍🏼

lol par thoda khud b toh apna dimak lagaye na...zaruri h ki sumo ne kahan aur usne maana??😆

LOL this has been the general basis of their relationship in many ways for a while now.....Sumo is usually the guide, and Shravan looks up to her and follows whatever she says. This is not to say that Shravan doesn't have a spine of his own.....but the more he's fallen in love with her, the more he's willing to do anything for her happiness. He does stick up for his own POV too but ultimately the moment he sees her sad, he can't help himself from giving in to make her happy. It's just who he is.

MUCH better episode today than yesterday's muddled mess😆. Finally there was some cohesiveness in the character reactions as well as the scenes themselves.

Loved the episode!

Suman's reaction went mostly as expected😆....she pulled back from Shravan, literally and figuratively. This is classic Sumo....no matter how overwhelmed, actually it's ESPECIALLY when she feels overwhelmed that she steels herself further, becomes more stoic. Shravan may have felt a pang when she stepped back from his arms, but he neverthless continued undeterred and finally made the reference to the letter that we had wished for in yesterday's epi😆. It felt like the more he spoke his truth about his love for her, the more he seemed unburdened....while the burden then started to shift towards Sumo - she's the one who now feels burdened by the very truth that has set Shravan free.

It was such a relief to watch Shravan finally able to get it all out and get a huge burden off his mind. The best part was when Shravan says, he was so hurt when the letter he wrote for her burnt, but the most important part of the letter found its destination!! That was beautifully emoted by Shravan. Agree completely with the title , you could literally feel the balance shift. Shravan getting a chance to unburden himself, while Sumo listens and that burden completely transfers on to Sumo as Shravan talks about his feelings and his love.

Suman upfront declared to Shravan that she doesn't love him and has no feelings for him beyond those of a friend😆....after this, she proceeded to set her "mitigation plan" into motion like the erstwhile cadet that she is😆. And the "plan" is to finish the remaining 10 days of group study and then totally cut off from each other so that Shravan can also get over her and not wallow in his heartbreak. 😆. As usual, Suman has decided the parameters of the path forward😆....this, even after learning a lesson the hard way about making presumptions😆. Nevertheless, Sumo must persist....or she won't be Sumo.

Lol at Sumo and her carefully made up plans. I am happy that Sumo actually let Shravan say everything without stopping him or just turning him away. Her reaction at this point makes sense from her point of view. For her, she viewed Shravan only as his best friend and for all her life , she has had a set goal for her life and falling in love will change everything for her. So her making 10 day plan is just a knee jerk reaction to the big revelation😆

There was no rain, contrary to all our speculation😆....but Sumo did manage to snag her skirt on a nail and fall down😆. Random FB inserted of them supposedly having shared a joke over this previously.....but the fall itself seems to foreshadowing what's coming up for Sumo. She's going to stumble in the wake of this decision, all thanks to her stubborn determination to push Shravan away.

Word to her fall foreshadowing about the future for Sumo. The title song that played was beautiful.

“Hotho pe tere shikwo ka shor haipar yeh nigahen kehti kuch aur hai jo na mil lamhe kahi chhut na jaye hath se mil jane de jo bane ek duje ke vaste. “

That really sums up Sumos situation here!

Shravan has found new resolve....attaboy😆. Since he's now unburdened by revealing his truth, and sab KILEAR ho gaya hai as Bunty would say, Shravan has decided that he's now going to YOLO these 10 remaining days of group study with Sumo😆.....Sumo ko jo sochna hai soche, Shravan has decided that he won't hold back from expressing his pyar or hiding it behind friendship anymore. Waah humara sher😆. Bunty continues to worry about Shravan's heartbreak but Shravan has toughened himself up some more.....lol

Thanks to the makers for not turning him into a Devdas😆 It felt so good to finally see the spunky Shravan:)) Felt like cheering him up when he said , have 10 days will utilise it to fully express my love without any inhibitions. 🥳

The 10 days countdown was funny waise, especially cuz both Shravan-Sumo were marking their calendars for it🤣.

The Sumo-Kancha scene again hinted that Sumo is suppressing her emotions and basically lying to herself in many ways, as she usually does. She's developed a big mental block against the possibility of Shravan being anything more than a friend cuz it will interfere with her life goals....but she isn't taking a moment to reflect on why she's so heartbroken even over the loss of this friendship. The way she was crying so much while talking to Kancha....and even Kancha pointed out that the reaction was a bit extreme if Sumo really has no feelings beyond friendship for Shravan but she was quick to cut off Kancha...which in itself is telling enough😆.

I guess since now everything is out in the open, Sumo has no place to hide and its only now she will have to ask hard questions and also the possibility of not having any contact with Shravan make her realise her love for him. Kancha is always the voice of reason 😆 asking uncomfortable questions😆

Shravan ki emotions had such intensity that Sumo ko literally bukhaar chadhaa diya next morning😆. J/K....but Sumo does seem to be one of those people who repress their emotions so much that ultimately it starts harming their health.....she was so upset about the confession that it built into a fever.

But it was quite notable how much she insisted that Kancha not tell Shravan about her health....that was Sumo's full fixation again and again, even insisting that she won't take any dawaai from him...lol but Shravan found out regardless and did his Majnu sprint to go get dawaai for his pyari Sumo😆. Bike as expected woh "sacrifice" assignment ki wajah se nahin chala paya😆.

The entire time Sumo was mainly hurt because she could not return his love and if she continues the friendship it will hurt him way more, hence 10 day challenge😆

Good that Kancha's mom was back today.....I welcomed the break from Kavita ka melodrama for once😆.

PS: Does anyone else get bothered by the picture Shravan keeps staring on? Couldn’t he find a solo pic of Sumo to gaze at , instead of Sumo kancha😆

Precap mein Sumo FRIEND seems to insist that her Shravan FRIEND not shoulder any burden alone....isko bhi pushups karne hain punishment mein😆.

It has come down to wohi issue.....Sumo thinks she can only have Shravan as a friend in her life and this "inconvenient" love confession has messed things up....what she doesn't get is that all this won't stop either of their feelings....whether it's his concern for her, or her concern for him. Chalo, Sumo also likes to learn some lessons the hard way....so be it😆
