Privacy naam ki koi cheez hai hi nahin waise Tripathi house main. Like everyone talks about the honeymoon trip as if teerth yatra pe bhej rahe ho. Aane ke baad kya poochenge? Bacche kab honge; next one on the checklist samajh ke?

And if he says he’ll take her out, Malini herself will get the admissions process completed. At this rate, they are going to end up making her mad by the end of it all. Maybe that paagal wala dialogue from Aditya applies to everyone in his life. Tuning Malini out will be tough because next week might end up being a lot about her.

Personal trip - as long as he does not get bitten by the snake tomorrow before talking to Imlie, I’m good with whatever scraps they throw our way 😆

LOL yep, it seems very likely they will try for a honeymoon trip with Malini when he comes back....also cuz the family is always suggesting a honeymoon as the solution to all problems😆. Then, as you said, yeh honeymoon pe bhi Imlie ki baatein pucca blurt out karega and aur raita failaayega😆.

Oh yeah I'm sure bacche karlo wala jaap is also likely on the horizon for Adi-Malini....the fun will never end😆.

I feel like we need to brace ourselves for a lot of high drama in PD😆.....they will make the Mahashivratri pooja likely as melodramatic as possible with another round of suhaagan saving her suhaag stuff vis a vis Imlie saving Adi after the snakebite😆.

@bold: Very well summed up. Everyone in this story is selfish in some ways except for Imlie I guess...her level of selflessness is different😆 and sabke bas ki baat nahin.

Adi is indeed selfish in some ways, even if he is a good person otherwise.....usmein woh basic selfishness hai that I guess many of us have too....ki pehle khud ka toh sab theek kar lo, phir dusron ki madad karo😆. Right now he is feeling like a total mess and unable to grapple with his mental/emotional state so he's unable to give the usual things he gives to his family and Malini - the stoic good beta act and the "perfect" romantic husband act.....what he doesn't understand is that relationships shouldn't be about putting on a persona to pacify people.....you should be able to be your true self.

Yes, after telling so many lies, Adi has dug himself into a hole and now he feels no one will be able to understand even if he tells them.....to make it worse, he doesn't even have the answers for himself either so he doesn't know what he will tell them either. Imlie toh gayi, that should have resolved the matter for him to go back to his life as it was but that hasn't happened.....and he has no answers for the family right now ki why it's so.

I know zaroorat got used a lot yesterday but I'm still wondering if Adi will get to any conscious realization that he needs Imlie😆....his actions are clearly showing that he does, but dimaag ki ghanti bajegi ya nahin, we can never say with him. As you said, it's more likely that Malini will use it more successfully to guilt trip him and keep him tied to her that she will die without him, that's why she needs him.

The most remarkable/revealing thing definitely was Adi admitting to himself that he knows his life will be in danger in PD, but he still can't seem to help himself from going there.....will he ever introspect past that point? Dunno....lol

Exactly!! Dusra idk how much did he register that either.. that was such a big word she threw at him and he still stood firm on well sorry I gotta leave which made her tilmila more like a fish without water 😆 like idk did adi even realized that she said itni bhari word to hold him back as such to.me more like it went over his head caz again his need was way too big for him.to.focus on kisi aur ka need in that moment besides what help can he be to someone else when he himself needs sukoon desperately. He knew she was doing extra nautanki lol I felt so bad for him in frustration going that is what I am trying to.do.damn it solve the matter find the solutions now will you plz let me.. and the lovely impulse main saying it to his momand then stopping in mid that was very well done by GM too lovely variation and realization hitting him haha.

@bold - sigh. What a reality check that moment was. For both of them. More so for him but she was so overwhelmed too. He’s suppressed his feelings for so long that they are all over the place right now, untempered. While enthralling, Aditya’s intensity is fearsome as well. No wonder others around him have no clue how to respond. To think a fearless 19 year old is the only one who can even come close to fervently countering his emotions....they are so in sync that they even got up at the exact same time, unwilling to snap out of the moment. 😆

@bold: Yes, Adi is a loose cannon in many ways. The intensity makes for interesting viewing but there is always the unpredictability factor cuz he's like a ticking time bomb that can explode at any time and where the situation will go from there, no one can say.

Intensity can be both good and bad in Adi's case.....lol it's good obviously when it compels him to express his true self and feelings for Imlie....but the flip side is that he then goes overboard in his reactions also cuz he hasn't processed his emotions in a measured way so they can end up harming both him and his loved ones.

Re: the getting up together at the end of the scene....yeah I noticed that too😆....they were totally frozen in sync from the moment they locked their eyes....neither wanted to break the connect of the moment....they only started moving when the friends showed up to help them get up😆.

It was actually a pretty tough scene to enact from Adi's POV I'd say....GM had to portray an Adi who just wants to leave the house without any confrontation and just get his problem solved....but when the family shows up to question him, his torment is so tangibly visible in his body language. When they first start questioning him, he doesn't want to lie so he tries to say as little as possible, hoping they will let him go with that😆....but they don't....he keeps quiet for as long as he can but his silence keeps making their reactions more agitated, then Malini starts with her reactions and you can see him feeling sliced and diced from all angles 😆.....the little bit when he tries to talk in a low tone to Malini hoping she will let it go....the way he isn't meeting anyone's eyes, head bowed as they all question him.....he is so tortured but he can't bring himself to drop the decision to go to PD.....after all that, he finally blurts out, "Jamshedpur" with a bit of a stutter so you can see how difficult it was for him to tell that lie....then he quickly takes his leave shortly after that and again exits after making as little eye contact with everyone as possible.😆

It is definitely credit to GM that we get to see all these variations from Adi in one scene even as he never directly says in words what exactly is tormenting him so much.....it all comes through in his expressions and body language only.

Oh one other bit that amused me......we were discussing in yesterday's thread that Malini seemed to have presumed Adi is her Prince Charming and shaadi ke baad pata lag raha hai he's not😆.

Kal Imlie's friends were also doing the usual teasing about how her Prince will come to take her back with him😆.

I hope both women are clear-eyed about the fact that Adi is NOT a Prince Charming😆.....atleast Imliya should be cuz he's mostly been a Grinch to her for so long😆.....emotion sickness and current apni jagah hai but she shouldn't spin a fantasy over what he's not....connection banaa hai toh uske Grinch roop se hi ban gaya hai when he's barely given her any charm😆.

Imelie ke liye a bit too much hai to consider him prince just yet🤣 koi feel nahi karaya isne aisa isse toh still she was like well mere jaisa prince na hi mile toh better hai and I did like that 😄 ke phir se naraaz hoke nikal li aage😆 I would rather her fall for the flaws wala adi whenever it happens then give him some prince wala faltu labels ..

For sure.. honestly it is the way he displays adi ka dilemma by these little details that we end up understanding his pov most if the times caz they clearly keep.him so vague otherwise in his dialogues and thought process so kudos to him for making it less work for us to decode with these lovely understated changes he brings to the scene esp a complicated scene like this which on paper is not as detailed as it came on screen

Waise has adi said moon is problem ...because when aparna asked problem kya hai he pointed and was abt to say 😆..

Koi batayega mujhe ...

Waise can clearly see adi future tommorrow ....he will be "yeah haseen wadiyan yeah khula asman " type 😆

Malini was total tantrum and in the end, just to get her way, she used the big word and that pleading tone. Every time she does that Adi goes into this groveling and pacifying mode but yesterday he just could not bring himself to do it. I loved the way he just gave up on Moon and turned to his Mom and gave his heartfelt request, that please understand and let me go with the promise that he will be back with the best version of himself. He did not even bother look at Moon when he apologized to her and just walked away because at that point he was beyond explaining to her that for once, he needs her to understand and back off. He was so at the end of tether with this storm within him that he just needed space.

The funny part is that when he was in the bus, the family drama did not even enter his mind he was only thinking about Imlie. It almost seemed like at the end of journey he came to the conclusion that he is in this state because he has not ended things correctly so the he has to come to PD end it, even it will be dangerous. Once done, he will go back to his Moon. Look how she came secondary 😉

The problem with him is, he is thinking once he has the talk with Imlie and gets the closure everything will be fine. He is not ready or should I say scared, to go deep and analyze that where the problem is. It almost seemed like he is grasping at straws and for him the most logical was that I did not get the proper closure so that’s the problem and going to PD and doing it is the solution. Again an impulsive decision with unknown repercussions😆 because he had created a raita everywhere.

Also, see the road again which I feel indicates that it’s the start of their new journey, . The previous started in the similar way and this one also in the similar way.
