Another lovely analysis Indrani.. 👏
U r right. Sumo thought the experiments had failed but in reality he did prove that he loves her.
This guy feels so much for her that i hope that Sumo's love matches his equally. But i guess its said correctly that in a relationship there is always one person who loves the other more.
Preeti Pushkar scene was good but i found Preeti to be a bimbo and their scenes seemed forced. Pushkar deserves someone way better...

Dont worry Ayesha, let our mad Sumo settle down, she will realize her love for Shravan like no one else and then the question will not remain as to who loves whom more but is love really so wonderful as these two share between them and for each other.
Pushkar and preeti are individually cute but together, the CVs are rushing through

<font color="#990066">No, I dont believe Sumo has gone off a tangent. Its only that she has not listened closely to her heart. Her love is innocence one thing which has been completely missing from Shravan's life. Her love is generous and this Shravan knows no wonder time and again Oxford-returned lawyer goes to seek that comfort, that solace in spite of him being intelligent and resourceful. Hers is the only presence which can lift him up from the morass of misery and this is not only because Shravan feels it this way but because Sumo has always been with him as such a presence. She is the smile that can light him up. Check out the tom and jerry scene, Shravan again became the teenager which he had forgotten to be in these ten years.</font>
<font color="#990066">And yes, there is still a long journey to cover.. and Shravan will miss this eccentric in his life like hell</font>



I agree. I just want some seriousness from her side. I guess I will get to see it from now on...after watching today's episode.

Hiya Indrani

Lovely post well summed up
Here's what stood out for me in the past few episodes ...


shravan being in love wit Sumo is not in question cause the letter of his youth clearly shows us where he stands ... He wouldn't be so hurt if it was mere friendship .. His thwarted first love is what made him so bitter ...
What's clearly interesting is Suman ... From the time the word fees was mentioned in that closet her feelings came jumping to the fore ... He closes In on her & she does not shrug ... He bends over as if to kiss & she does not shy away ... She expected the sabse khoobsurat ehsaas to be 'love'

This to me is very interesting if u link this wit Holi sequence & Sumo's shout out that I dint abandon u ... The connect is simply beautiful

What's most interesting & what sort of gives the plot away is the FB of karela's isn't it interesting the dish is called authentic sumo karela a signature dish of sorts for sumo the chef ... & the ques she asked shravan then was What if ur wife's fav dish was karela

Makes one wonder were these guys always on the same page but dint communicate ... Puts the promo is stark clarity when u see it wit this lens

Would love to discuss this further but pressed for time as am on holiday

Agree.. no person could go to such lengths to extract revenge in the name of calling it even. He was hurt and bitter or disillusioned because it was she who was involved. She whom he loved.
What's clearly interesting is Suman ... From the time the word fees was mentioned in that closet her feelings came jumping to the fore ... He closes In on her & she does not shrug ... He bends over as if to kiss & she does not shy away ... She expected the sabse khoobsurat ehsaas to be 'love'

Yes, Sumo's whole ten years have been spent thinking about him, her whole world revolved around him. He was the world that made her go on in an uncharacteristic Sumo manner not being despondent like Suman. Because she knew he would be there as she had never left him. She has not been able to verbalize her feelings or articulate them as she wanted them to but her feelings are now singularly more clearer, particularly so, when he gives her those mixed signals. Absolutely, Red the connect is seamless. Thank you for pointing it out🤗
What's most interesting & what sort of gives the plot away is the FB of karela's isn't it interesting the dish is called authentic sumo karela a signature dish of sorts for sumo the chef ... & the ques she asked shravan then was What if ur wife's fav dish was karela
True that as a teenager also these two were completely into each other and made for each other.. at times love never needs to be spelled out, does it? Yet what does comes through is a feeling how in spite of their narratives and reading so inextricably intertwined they have not been able to reach the same goal and at the same time. On second thoughts, he would really have to get used to eating karelas for the rest of his life😉

Enjoy your holiday, Red. Shall be waiting for your extended review😃

hey Indrani, lovely write up .. it's always pleasure to read your take.. .. I missed this earlier ..
Regarding Karela,.. I have a contrary view to what most of you think.. just like he worked on his charm which was missing in his teenage days... and now he uses it at the drop of hat ..from what I understand, being away from Suman..for 10 long years.. he didn't really was away .I think, he worked one by one on everything Sumo liked .. like when she went to Prom she wanted a stylish looking charming boy .. he turned into one.. similarly he might have really overcome his dislikes ...on one hand his anger for sumo and other hand his love for sumo .. in the same heart ..that anger gave him the zidh to overcome all his dislikes and flaws and turn into those weaknesses into his strengths .. so the karela thing, I genuinely think he did started loving karelas now.. as they say love gives strength to overcome all weakness and flaws..aisa ho sakta hain ki sumo ko jo pasand hain ...shravan woh na karein .. what if it is "karela" what if he didn't say it .. it's all over the place

And that moment when he went to restroom... it was not to wash his hands or throw up .. but to show Sumo's excitement and her little jig ... the entire scene was narrated from Sumo's perspective .. so to give her a moment of merry .. they sent shravan to restroom and sumo celebrated her happiness and ecstasy in a little jig ... for me I still think Shravan ate those karela genuinely and he worked to overcome his dislike over years.

And Suman she is still in the initial pangs of "feeling of being in love" phase .. there is a bachpana in her pyar,.. preetha's constant side tracking of Sumo and she following it is more like bachpana... time will come when she will understand Shravan without these tests, she will dwell into his eyes and understand him ,..

Sorry for the late response, Indrani.
I was actually scouting the first five pages for a post on this week , yesterday.😆

Glad you could come up with one...

My take is: Shravan has changed. He likes Karelas now, He likes to be metrosexual (Loved Sumo's dismay there! 🤣)...And he has friends who are girls who demand him back in London. Quite a complicated situation for Sumo. 😉 Waiting to see where this goes...I loved both the episodes...especially how resigned Sumo looked and how matter of fact-ly she greeted Shravan in her house. 😉

I love Pushkar and I like his scenes with Preet...But I am not buying this as a love story yet. 🥱 I hope I am not expected to, at this phase in their relationship.

Will be back with more thoughts later...Hopefully I can come up with a post.

🤗

Lovely post @indranigupta...and apt title...
A shout out to Chicksoup...for your earlier comment on my post for some similarity in inIndranigupta and my writing or thot process...😊 I have to say Indrani's post is reflective of my thinking of the current state of affairs becos after the monday epi...i was thinking of a post tentatively titled "Who will blink first? and lo and behold I saw the Who will bell the cat...post
😆😆 so soup...u got that right...


I agree with Indrani...the boy has changed but his love hasn't...that is the bottom line...

Its interesting to see that Shravan has given a new spin to all things concerning Sumo...while in the past it was about all waiting for her approval and her acceptance...this time around...Shravan has managed to add charm to the "waiting" process, like adding a swagger...so it comes across as a new thing for all of us...the viewers and Sumo included...Sumo has not read this Shravan well becos he is in a new package...

His day begins with a quick reminder to see if all's right with Sumo's world..His conviction that the first call of the day will be from his friend Sumo...who else could it be? His absolute need to share his distress with Sumo as decision time looms large...Yes...the circumstances would be diff and as we know...he may also take a decision that may be different from what his heart and Sumo (note they are the same!) wants...but the unmistakable aspect is the centrality of Sumo in his thought process...Everyone seemed to fret about Riya angle yday but not many i presume seemed to focus on the actual need for that scene...it was to let us know his state of mind before he will be forced to take the call to return to London.

He tells his friends that he is starting to feel happy being here among Friends and Family...(he says friends first...a freudian slip perhaps...Sumo is the central thought here too...) He knows he has to return eventually but his happy and relaxed mind has not put a date for that event...He is basking in Sumo sunshine and (family time)...His world is perfect at the moment before that perfect moment is ruined on walking into the chachi_Pushkar convo...

Thank you so much, Munni.😳.. the way you use words is remarkable👏

This is remarkable Munni, I really hadnt thought about this. He has changed but for her whether in small details or in big.. it is she who is looming large This perspective sounds better than mine👏

And that moment when he went to restroom... it was not to wash his hands or throw up .. but to show Sumo's excitement and her little jig ... the entire scene was narrated from Sumo's perspective .. so to give her a moment of merry .. they sent shravan to restroom and sumo celebrated her happiness and ecstasy in a little jig ... for me I still think Shravan ate those karela genuinely and he worked to overcome his dislike over years.
Yes, you are right it was to show Sumo's delight, her happiness and her eventual dismay. I would genuinely want this to take place that he did start liking Karelas but for her.

And Suman she is still in the initial pangs of "feeling of being in love" phase .. there is a bachpana in her pyar,.. preetha's constant side tracking of Sumo and she following it is more like bachpana... time will come when she will understand Shravan without these tests, she will dwell into his eyes and understand him ,..




Her narratives are not simplistic its just that she is missing out on details which individually do not matter but taken together they lead to a new beginning, a new world yet to be unexplored... a world whose title she has heard often without knowing whats inside its covers... the title of LOVE😳
Munni, you are Hiten-gauri fan... you are my best friend. 😆My first crush... Hiten Tejwani
Anyways, coming to your response, its brilliant as always
