Aryan-Imlie/ AryLie Discussion Thread 15 🧿 - Page 79

I’ve got to say the Utha le re deva is my favorite gif of all time for the T and C OTT drama 🤪🤪🤪🤪 Exactly my sentiments. Just kill me, already, thank god for the ability to FF.

Loved logic aur writers ki katti hai. Batti kadhi honar re deva? 😜😜

Hey Anu, nice to hear from you. I'll comment only on this one line – this is not the thread where such a disclaimer is needed. 🤣

So there's been a rationing of the number of my posts apportioned to the assumed or imagined insults on my part to the phantoms of misogyny (being a misogynist is not an insult or vile or punishable, dear guardians of the internet. In fact, misogyny must be respected as 'opinions' till the last breath we take. Freedom of speech, amIrite?)

Full disclosure : This is not a satire. In no way that galeech genre of literature, having hoodwinked people like Chaucer, Kalidasa, Thomas Paine, Austen, Parsai, is going to lure me. No, sir! This is not satire. Satire bad. Bad satire.

Fuller disclosure : This is not a personal attack on any of the various members of Indiaforums as attested by the lack of personal nouns or pronouns. Hamka stalk karke report na karee pleeej.

Isn't it absolutely wonderful when someone actually does outshine everyone else with a half-minute's worth of ss? What wonderful actors Durga and FK are ❤️.

Okay, this show is definitely clever in the way it juxtaposes the abusive and manipulative with the positive and liberating. What vile people these Tripathis are! Dumping all their infeasible expectations on the barely-legal-ex-naukrani-cum-ex-bahu, so that they can have a psychological and emotional scapegoat later. They dump all their unpleasant emotions on Imlie and move on.

AC acted like a mother for the first time and took her daughter away from this bigamy-enabling hellhole.

My gosh, Imlie is an annoying robot and not only because she doesn't know how to prioritise in any given situation. No, not even because she supposedly cared more about Aditya than Aryan. She lacks the skills to analytically and holistically look at a situation unless it is hinted at by someone— Aru.

This girl got married when she had no sense of herself or the world— truly a frog in the well.

If people still ask why high-schoolers shouldn't get married, let alone forcibly married to 34 y/o men, they should actually see what Imlie has become.

In her transition from an adolescent to a young adult, Imlie has had no other worldview apart from her village and the manipulative Ts. When she breaks away from one, she gets pulled down by the other. When she should have been experiencing different worldviews, she was held hostage by these two equally abusive conditioning myths/fiction— she latched on to the latter fiction

Not being able to save Babusaheeeeeb dismantles all her sense of self. She's hysterically sad and lost. She would fight the forces of Hades, prioritise her jiju-prem over her maternal family, and bite Aru to protect her dashed sense of self. She's an a-grade idiot.

Sadly, Meethi is a very inefficient mother— she has never made her confront any bitter truths. Aryan is the only one to ever push her in the path of self-realisation. This gadhedi is going to slash my baby's heart repeatedly, and he's going to silently absorb all of that. He's going to absorb both their pain as he did today by hugging her, in spite of her biting his hand. Both Aru and Meethi got to that realisation together today.

Aru deserves so so so much better than this and they should show him compartmentalise Imlie and try to go put on a few dates with other people or something.

I know I bring this all the time but today Aru encapsulated Tumhe Mohabbat. On the other hand, what makes you think I would write such horrible scenes, M?

I do want to add that this is going to be a lengthy process for Imlie to recover from.

Here are the 5 stages of grief and what we will see from Imlie:

This is especially going to be difficult since she was not in a healthy relationship but a toxic one which she is still not aware of.

- In that toxic relationship she was emotionally dependent on AKT and the T's, had a strong fear of being rejected and abandoned.

- In addition her, self-esteem was shattered. In that relationship she was totally undermined and her self-confidence was destroyed, even when she tried to build that self-confidence. The longer she stayed in that relationship, her self-worth diminished even more, thus leading to her feeling weak, inadequate and unable to live without the other person (AKT). The weaker person in this relationship (Imlie - the 18 or 19 year old) thus started to think that they don't deserve any more than what they are getting.

- Self-esteem is very imp when it comes to recognizing abuse, putting an end to it by confronting it and being able to stand on own two feet. We saw this is in Imlie when she took a stand, burnt her mangalsutra and left the T house (I swear applause for that day ). We also saw it in the scene of her apologizing to herself. These two scenes were great but sadly just a very tiny step towards realizing her self-worth and acknowledging the toxicity of her relationship with AKT.

- Now coming to Grief: in order to properly grieve, one needs to support themselves to a great extent. But, if the part of our-self is already so damaged then how is one supposed to support themselves during this intense grief? In this case Imlie's emotions, self-respect/esteem, love and more has a deep wound which was not being allowed to heal (due to the T's calling her back and Imlie herself going back) and so when it time will come to confront grief and go through the process it will be very tough.

I don't know if this is making any sense? 🤔 I think I may have lost my train of thought and I am over thinking this cause the makers are definitely not using logic for their story 😑.

In short be ready for a lot of rona dhona

Hola girls...what did I miss? 😆

Apparently nothing worth missing by the general mood in the forum. Giving the episode a miss. A couple of episodes will be dedicated to this as expected.

Imlie is hysterical and I can't quite fault her for it. Even under the 'normal ' conditions, her entire thought process revolves around her apna. (Remember her NY resolution). And here we see that inspite of all her efforts, she has failed in her task. Her identity is wrapped up in the notion of her being a saviour for all.

So I am not going to dig deeper into her grief and the resulting actions.

She hasn't asked about her Nani though..that was odd. Nvm..letting that go for now.

What I would have really liked to see is the relief on her face upon seeing Meethi safe and sound( someone who has watched the episode can correct me if I am wrong)..or say something like 'Thank goodness Ma, you are safe. I was scared'.

I see that there are some who aren't pleased at her lack of concern for Aryan. That Aryan is ok is for all to see. Now if he wasn't in front of her, and then if she neglected to ask for him is another matter. So not holding her to it. (Again, haven't watched the episode. Not sure of what was exactly shown.)

I don't know if you are familiar with the string-of- pearls plant. Gul's team has a penchant of giving some good poignant moments akin to the pearls in the plant. But the problem is the small string that connects these moments though. Often, we find the string to be frayed or broken making it difficult for the viewer to navigate till the next pearl. And unlike the plant, the pearls are few and far between.

The Arylie hug today..that was a good moment.. is that the same hug as the BTS posted a couple of days ago?

Meethi- Aryan meeting...that was beautiful. I wonder what was actually conveyed there..his desperation and disappointment that he couldn't shield Imlie from the grief..or pity at the girl for he knows exactly the hell she will go through in the coming days.

My heart broke for Aru today. I just cannot connect with Imlie right now. She is so completely brainwashed by the very manipulative and self centered Tripathis, Adi included.

💔💔 Aru ke aansu. Loved the Meethi Aryan eye lock and silent understanding between them.
