Ooh today was explosive. Loved it! After a while we've gotten a good episode. I have so much to say. I don't even know where to start.
Dheeru is a lion. Hurt the lion, nothing. Hurt the lion's cubs, and he spares no one. That's exactly what happened today. Dheeru spared no one. Satrupa dared to hurt Adhiraj. Dheeru reacted exactly as I expected him to and that's the beauty of the writing. He got angry at Anami, but it wasn't displaced anger. Anami was ignorant and Dheeru informed her angrily that her mother did this to Adhiraj. Then he bailed Adhiraj out and confronted the LM family, openly declaring that Adhiraj is his son and to take the case back else he would show what he's capable of.
Adhiraj was the calm in all this. He didn't want Anami to see him behind bars so he kept asking her to leave and not to worry. He didn't want this matter to go any further so he kept stopping Dheeru. He's understood what LM is capable of, but at the same time he doesn't want to lose his father again. Throughout Dheeru's anger, he was the one to hold Dheeru. One point that was noteworthy was when Dheeru was towering over Baldev in anger and reminding Baldev that he was still 50% owner of RS, Adhiraj just put one hand in between the two to keep Dheeru from socking Baldev. He wasn't showing his police side or his power side. He was just being a son.
Satrupa, on the other hand, is being isolated and battered from all sides. It explains her need to cling to Anami. No one supports her. Gayatri and Vikram were angry with her. Baldev supported her, but it wasn't really support for her, it was deep-seeded anger at Dheeru and Adhiraj. I'm a bit sad though. I was hoping Baldev would acknowledge Anami as his daughter, but it was just anger at Dheeru. That's it. Satrupa is even losing Anami more and more. And she's the one pushing Anami away. If she really wants to get close to Anami, she should have believed her own daughter, but she didn't.
This new Anami is so different. The old Anami would have yelled at Satrupa in anger, probably saying a lot of stuff that she didn't mean, but here she was calm and composed. She spoke the truth. She said the same thing again and again, but she didn't shout even once. In a room full of emotions, she was the most emotionally charged, but showed it the least.
Vikram's main fear has always been RS. Nothing should happen to RS. And once again here he proved it. He only spoke whenever Dheeru accused them and reminded them who he was. When Dheeru and Baldev were face-to-face, Vikram only entered the argument the moment Dheeru said that he still owned 50% of RS. Somewhere even Dheeru understands Vikram's weakness and he can exploit it well. Satrupa will be forced to take the case back, but in the process she will be even more isolated. And if she doesn't take it back herself, Vikram will take it back for her because he doesn't want anything to happen to RS and Dheeru has the ability to do anything he wants to RS. He proved it once by forcing LM to bring him on as a shareholder.
There was a nice role reversal also shown today. When Sudha's past was shown there was a point when she and Gayatri were in the hall, while Satrupa watched from above. Gayatri and Sudha were facing off and Satrupa was watching, emotional but also watching how a "mistake" was removed from LM. Today the opposite happened. Gayatri and Satrupa were in the hall, while Sudha watched from above. Gayatri and Satrupa were facing off and Sudha was watching, scheming but also watching how a "mistake" is being removed from LM. It won't be long before Satrupa is possibly pushed out of LM or at least RS.
And Sudha deserves credit for this. She set this in motion by kidnapping Ladoo. If she hadn't kidnapped Ladoo, then Satrupa would never have saved and hidden Ladoo away. If Satrupa hadn't done that, then Anami would never have gotten angry enough to leave LM with Ladoo. If Anami hadn't left LM, then Satrupa would never have gone after with a vengeance. If Satrupa hadn't gone after Anami, then Anami would never have returned promising revenge for everything Satrupa had done and Adhiraj would never have gone with Anami. If these 2 things didn't happen, then Satrupa wouldn't be in the position she was in today.
But this will also be Sudha's unraveling. The day Ladoo reveals the truth about his kidnapping will be the day that LM will come together and Anami will finally understand where she went wrong. That day Narottam may just open his mouth. And that will be the day that Satrupa will get hurt badly leading to her redemption and Anami's realization that Satrupa wasn't all wrong. Sudha will get battered from all sides like Satrupa is, but unlike Satrupa Sudha will crumble. She will fall and fall hard.
