So the show started with both being upset with Aditya, one because he left and the other because he asked her to leave. They both were angry with him and both had epiphanies that Aditya's life is in danger The contrast was in the varying reactions from both of them. Imlie did not care about her most cherished dream and choose to come back, just to check if he is all right whereas Malini was still stuck on her ego. She still choose to be angry and was not ready to even call him to check if he was all right after her terrifying dream. The family had to force her to do it.
Next was the heartbreak . Imlie heard Aditya thinking only of Malini and of his regret that he did not talk to her on his deathbed. It hurt her, it had an impact on her but she did not waver in her determination to keep him alive. It did not matter to her what his feelings are or that she does not have a space in his life. All she cared about was that he is her husband and he cannot die. She kept trusting that nothing will happen to him going as far as taking Durga roop for NN just because she dared to say that he will die.
At the same time, on the other side, Malini faced her own heartbreak and realized that Aditya has lied to her. Her first thought was not that why did he lie, what was the need being how truthful he is or may be he is gone on a secret mission for his work. No, her first thought was I cannot trust him anymore. Its amazing really how her trust that was build over a period of 7 years is so feeble that its just took one word from his editor for it to crumble to pieces. Yes, he did lie to her but even a murderer is given a right to justify his actions before the court gives the verdict and this person is supposedly the love of his life. She became the judge and jury before listening to his justification. It took his mother (Oh...how I loved her here) to make her realize that her reaction is extreme and his life can be in danger. In short, for once think about him rather than herself 😛
And we come to the last part of this contrast game, that is the wish. For Imlie, her prayer or wish was his safety, his well being even though he is far away from her, for Malini it was a question of whether he will come back to her. In short, one is selfless where her husband is concerned and the other so selfish.
The other part was the precap. During the Savitri pooja, we had discussed that these two never let any of their fight remains unresolved and nothing goes under the carpet. I am glad they continued it with their current disagreement. Their unresolved fight made Aditya so restless that he landed in PD. He wanted to resolve it and take her back home but was not sure what the problem was nor the solution. Imlie was adamant and was not ready to go back because he was not acknowledging her haq or right to her own beliefs. She never needed his public acknowledgement nor a paper acknowledgement. All she wanted was that, as she has accepted his choice, he accepts her own choice to walk her destined path with her destined name given to her by her Sita Maiyaa. The precap, IMO, is the culmination of their this fight. By accepting that her name as Imlie AKT, he is acknowledging her right to her belief that she will always be Imlie AKT and nothing and no one can change it. Not sure if this also means he is acknowledging her as his wife but lets see how they play that out.
Lastly, I think we just need to brace ourselves for Malini mahaanta overdose for next week and a guilt filled Aditya and a doubly guilt filled Imlie because of Aditya's deathbed declaration that he failed Malini. Every time when a family member reminds Aditya about his disappearance and how much he has hurt Malini, we will be seeing an Imlie who is going to go overboard for her Malini Didi.
