Aww PPak, I get your frustration and how. Today's episode while disappointing on multiple levels, gave me a few good surprises as well. Adi's repeated chop of DD, Aparna's inadvertent plea to Imlie showing that she still cares for her despite everything that happened and surprisingly watching Pallavi support Imlie and do what DD has never been able to do - stand up to her mother and tell her in no uncertain words that this is her family and it was her choice to marry in this family.
Baaki the insults honestly rolled of both Imlie & my back, they were so ghisi piti. Adi could have said more, I agree, but that was neither the time nor place, as his first and last concern was to show the thinking of the society to the family & make them understand that they are placing these people's opinions over their son's happiness. His entire purpose was to let the world know that Imlie is his first wife & Malini and him are no longer together (almost like he is not even acknowledging their marriage😆).
Seeing Imlie is harder for us to watch that it is for her, IMO. She has steeled herself to listen to all this, as her support to Adi when he introduced her as his wife just made her feel so proud. That little expression of hers made me feel like she felt that to hear this from him makes everything else worth it. I do wish they had shown him go after her rather than DD, but somewhere that convo was also needed to give Malini a reality check. Did she get it - Nope. Is that Adi's fault - Nope again.
Adi does look like he is focused on getting Imlie, but his perspective is that to fight with the ghatiya soch, only brute force will work, which to an extent it is. Had Adi not done what he did, when the truth comes out it would have looked more like an EMA rather than what it actually is - that Imlie is the first wife. I am glad that Adi took a stand and I guarantee you that aaj jo kasar usne chodi hai, some epis later he is going to make sure to give it back tenfold.
But I get your frustration, but more than me there is someone else who will understand your point much better. Flowerji?😆
