Nisha, what if Viveka considered doing her PhD from LSE and get a scholarship?

I think it do great good to their relationship.
Both can be here without family baggage.
Ranaav should be able to manage his business/work from here.

This sounds absolutely fantastic to my ears!

In one of their conversations, it was Anu who was the one hoping for Vi to have a baby and Aakash was upset about her expectations from his daughter. Anu had even mapped out Veev's life saying since her PhD application got rejected, she could have a baby in the time before her next applications!

Wonder what changed?

I guess nothing did.


Anu, I think, is plain conflicted. She wants a grandkid too but she also wants her daughters to have the freedom to choose. She also knows some of Veev's opinions about the matter, how snarky at that!

Dadi has consistently blamed Anu for not having sons, choosing her career, being 'modern', etc... such consistent hammering is bound to leave its effects.

Aakash isn't bothered because he would never be held guilty for choosing his career over family!


“Savi needs to stop tattling” Akash was super angry

“That’s very authentic” Anu mocked 😆

That was savage! 👏


Those women who give up a career for family forever wonder if they shouldn't have. Those who don't, wonder if it would've been better had they did.

Anubha is constantly reminded of the latter. I guess this is why she's so affected by Mrs. Asthana's words.


how Varsha is so maternal and how she will only think of her career after she is done raising kids

Anu could have asked her when can one be done raising kids? What approximately is the cutoff? I mean, their respective parents are still not done raising Inder, Naina, Raanav or Viveka, are they?

But the fact that she herself doubts her choices makes her defensive and wary of it all. It's like.. through her daughters, she's defending her own choices in life!


I guess A&A would have to learn the hard way..

They can't map out their kids' life or impose their choices on their kids. Be it to have kids or not..


I also wonder what would be their reaction if they learn of Smrita's opinions on the matter!

“Dadi can I talk to Naina?” Inder decided to grovel at Dadi’s feet He is so slimy 🤢


“YEH LANDAN SE AAYA HAI?” Dadi repeated “Batao! Subah subah?” 🤣 Dadi is making London sound like its Meerut or Ghaziabad! 🤣


“ABHI kaha?” dadi was the master of world clock 🤣


Anu willed Dadi to follow her using her mental powers How fantastic would it be if we could just wish some people away! 🤔


Inder’s ears cocked up, he immediately dialed Raanav 😡🤢 He has slime written all over him!


“Its NOT she realized her colossal stupidity and is walking away from it by acting like we are sympathizing with Inder we are letting him in again, agar uski Ma aur Bua ko pata laga she would exterminate us” I doubt her assessment of Naina, but what she said about Inder is just bang on! 👏

"Bin bulaye Athithi, tum kab javoge?" - This is the state of Anu and Akash now.


Naina caused so much stress, frustration, anger, embarrassment and disappointment to her parents, sisters and family for this guy? Like seriously?

Naina should apologize to her parents and family for having put through them so much in the last few months.


I just hope Viveka does not come back running from London after knowing that Inder is in Delhi.

Dadi's presence is making Anu more and more rebellious, as a mother she might want to be a grandma a teeny teeny bit but Dadi's constant put down and never ever being able to get any validation from her is making her stand her ground on what her daughters should achieve

Warrior and a Wuss

He called raanav again, but he was fast asleep. Anu went about getting ready for work. Dadi was waiting for her phone, she took it with her to hear bhajans

She handed some free ka advice to Inder about the power of Hanuman Chaleesa. He gave her a look of “I will send you a telegram if I care”

“KIS se milne aaya hai?” she asked Inder

“AAP hee se Amma” he confirmed

“Dadu gussa karenge” she cracked herself up

“That’s exactly what Naina needs her own grandma competing with her’ Anu mumbled

Akash had to laugh out loud

“Amma aapki blue waali saree Savi ke ghar reh gayi” Anu went through a closet in the master bedroom loaned out to Dadu and Dadi

“Mujhe bas aaj WOHI pehen nit hi”

“To theek hai, Piyush ko text kar deti hoon” Anu promised

There was no way in h--- Piyush was bringing her a saree in rush hour

“Nahi who kaha aa paayega? Showroom kholne ka samay ho raha hai, Akash chala jaayega?”

“Ma SBI mein GM hain, Board meeting mein bulaye jaate hain who” Anu was FYU-RE YUS, she lashed out like a warrior

“To hai to beta mera… BATAO…. Afsar hoga daftar mein”

Akash winked at his wife

She tried not to smile

They were slowly patching up

They had a great marriage

“Who nahi ja paayenge sorry”

“TO USKO kehne do aap beta” Dadi was irritated

“Ma usne kaha maine kaha sab ek hi baat hai” Akash buttoned his shirt

“Mere DO bete hue tab bhi main APNI saasu ma se aisi baat na kar paaoon”

“Meri CHAAR betiyan hai Ma tabhi hai mujhme itni himmat” Anu gave her MIL a squeezie hug and left mother and son in master bedroom

Inder was in the balcony almost in tears

The girls had left quietly

He came inside

“Aunty can I wait for Naina?”

“If u like but I will have to give u the keys, Uncle will be dropping Dadi off at Bua’s in Rajouri Garden

“Oh sh—”

He hated responsibility even if it was only for 2 hours

“I am sorry that wont work” he spoke bluntly

“Umm.. then please wait until they are ready to leave and you can return later?”

“I cant believe she wont see me”

“I cant either” Anu muttered picking up her laptop satchel

“Good luck with Inder, I will see you in the evening” she texted Akash from the elevator

“Chalo aapko bahar khilaata hoon aaj raat ka khaana” he placated

“Corridor mein?”

“Uda lo mazaak Director of Engineering”

“Italian khilayiyega?”

“Aapke liye jaan haazir hai yaar”

“8 baje? Artusi GK II?”

“Done… pizza it is”

“Twins ko la sakta hoon?”

“Bas MERE APNE honey chahiye”

He sent her a heart

Raanav saw 10 texts and just as many calls from Inder

And a few from his mother and aunt

“can we take a break in the morning and go out in the afternoon?” Viveka was curled up in cramps on the bed

“We could stay home”

“Your friends said last night you believe being home is for wussies” she mumbled into her pillow

“ Oh I still believe that” he teased gently pulling her toward him

“so I am a schmuck?”

“I was thinking more like… daisy… or pansy” he gently rubbed the back of his fingers on her cheek

“My parents have a date too tonight”

“Oh yeah?” he was guarded

She nodded

“Inder India gaya hai” she said quietly

His expression crumpled….

My heart goes to this guy 🤗.

Bichara, mushkil se Biwi shadi ke liye mani.

She come on holiday also coz of his Dad primarily.

Never has he been able to enjoy her company without having to think about anything.
Can they not be bothered about Naina / Inder and just enjoy each other’s company for a week or so? Understand each other better?


And what’s this? Guy is not even confident of being responsible for a key ? He thinks he can take responsibility of Naina 🤣.

Inder bachke nikaal lo. Better for you. I can’t make my mind who is more dangerous among the two.

Curious, is Ranaan ashamed of how Inder is behaving now?
