It is so cruel yaar... the innocence, depth and purity of their love make you feel what did they do to deserve this💔
I liked how the episode was divided into two parts - the first half being all about these two enjoying the little time they've stolen away for themselves, even as they feel bad about their families worrying.....and the second half brought the flip with Vijay's death.
Bunty as always playing the dutiful friend ready to provide every help....I liked the bit where Shravan emotionally thanks him saying ki jo tu hasste hasste mere liye kar jaata hai woh toh koi bhi kisi ke lye na kare.....aww🤗.....and then packing Bunty off to get bhel puri.....lol.....waise waah kya script tayyar ki thi anticipating Devraj's call to him....that was a funny scene.
I loved how Shravan stops Bunty and then pulls him over for a hug:) Its like every hug is different, this one felt so heartfelt, it just showed Buntys help meant so much to him. Bhelpuri scene was a bit of throwback for panipuri scene, Sumo loves chatpata and Shravan can’t eat spicy at all😆 I like how they keep track of this chhoti chhoti baatein😆 Draamebaaz Bunty🤣 mauka mila nahi ki overacting chalu😆 The way he fooled Devraj with chachi ki beemari and his expressions of shock that SS ran away was hilarious.
There was a bittersweet quality to the final happy scenes Sumo-Shravan got together today. The first one where they read horoscopes together....Shravan ofcourse initially just doing it to distract her and cheer her up. We end up learning all their zodiac signs....lol so Shravan is a Virgo and Sumo is a Gemini😆....and Shravan scoffs at these horoscopes since they seem to predict an "adhura kaam" while he feels content now that he has Sumo. Bechaare ko kya pata abhi kya kya adhura rehne wala hai. And then we also get to see a shy Sumo who doesn't want to reveal what's in her horoscope....lol....the chase around the room and then the eventual cuddling in together was all sweetly shown. I saw another attempt at a kiss and I thought oh no ab bhi koi panga hoga.....lol but this time Shravan managed to kiss her forehead😆....and then both of them running their fingers over each other's face as if trying to memorize the imprint.....everything foreshadowing a sense of both of them storing up each other's essence to carry them through a long period of seperation.
This was so beautifully done, even the BG music was wonderful. As you said its just so bittersweet to watch this:(( Shravan and Vijays horoscope turned true in a way, I wanted to know what Sumos said. I loved how you put the last part in words.. they really have stored each others essence by imprinting each others face in their memory forever!
Then the second scene with Sumo making him a sandwich and using the time to question him about all the casual "I love you's" he's said over time to many girls....oh ho jealous Sumo dikh gayi aaj😆....yeh bhi foreshadowing hi thi as she tells him she doesn't care who he said it to before but he better not say it to anyone else after her😆.....and Shravan gadha, how did he think Sumo has said "I love you" to some other guy before when she's never dated isse pehle? haha.....Sumo was showing a lot of naraaz biwi type nakhre in this scene😆....the way she was brandishing a knife in his face again and again😆
I loled everytime Sumo threatened him with the knife. I guess the “S” in the looser game was Swati and not Sumo😆 Shravan is really a bewakoof asking Sumo who was the one she said ILY to😆 These two have really impressed me with every emotion whether it be playful, emotional, sad or happy. There is no going overboard at all which is so surprising!
But that was the last of the happy memories together....as reality came knocking in the form of Bunty at the door.
The entire revelation of Vijay's death was again well executed....the way it builds up from Sumo learning Vijay went for the mission, her instantly guilt tripping that she didn't hug him before he left...Shravan trying to reassure her...then him getting the text from his Chachu with the death news....Sumo initially refusing to believe it thinking it's a ruse to get them back home....but the news then finally breaks on TV and Sumo collapses in shock.
The whole revelation scene hit hard. Shravans expression while reading the message just said it all. They were so good with their emoting , Shravan crying, Sumos disbelief and a small hope that its just his chachus trick to get them back, to final realisation while the news got comfirmed on TV and Bunty feeling of helplessness was so gut wrenching to watch.
Then the shift to Sumo's house to see Vijay's dead body....the way a numb Sumo walks in accompanied by Shravan....and the FB reel of all her memories with her father before she salutes him and breaks down to hug his body. I was so thankful they didn't turn it into a wailing session....her grief was palpable in her body language and everyone was silent in that scene.
THIS! Its the silent grief, the sense of not saying a proper goodbye to her dad, the way chachu and mom looks at a numb Sumo walking towards her dad and remembering him and that final salute gave me goosebumps.
It got more gut wrenching when she collapsed in front of her mom and Shravan tried to move towards her but her Chachu cut him off.....poor Shravan's palpable need to be there for his Sumo....bechara kept pleading to just let him be there for a bit cuz his Sumo needs him...but the family basically threw him out....and Sumo could only watch helplessly herself.
I just am finding to put the emotions while watching this unfold in words:(
Really good epi and the build up is going as expected.....Vile Daddu will do his "corrupt" Malhotras bakwaas as expected, Devraj will get framed and trapped because of other shady stuff he did, even if he is innocent of this issue.....and the poor kids will get trapped in the whirlpool.
In the precap, Shravan is yearning for some understanding from Sumo....the way he asks her, "Hum toh sach jaante hain na"?...he's expecting them to be a team on this but looks like Sumo won't be able to give him that as she's herself reeling with shock and grief.
