EIGHTEEN SHOCKS LATER.......

Bechara ko, koi bhi option nahin tha other than bolting up and saying " What's up? "🤣😒😛🤔🤓 My reactions as I watched that shock-fest in no particular order.

Good afternoon girls ! I hope everyone is doing well.

I think Imlie was relatable today for me. Some of you probably already realized that I don't have love-lost for her. As much as I tried to warm up to her, the writers kept thwarting my efforts😔. But since the Mirchi bazaar episodes, they had mellowed her down👍🏼She acted more her age and more human than a super-human😳. Today whatever she said about ASR is all truth, and her very own experience and observations. Apne gyaan ke bhandaar se kuch nahin banti. Phew! Thank you for that. Finally, I can relate and side with the protagonist👍🏼Her breakdown yesterday and her lines about ASR were realistic and touching- the one who is my strength is lying helpless, how can I be strong?😭 And today's, my saans and my life are indebted to ASR, if I need to, I will repay this today ( I think this is gist of it, it was more beautiful in hindi ❤️) Writers, take a bow to these lines👏She is a vulnerable young girl who is on the verge of losing her unwavering and dependable mentor/dost/ advocate and more.....The actress portrayed that fear and vulnerability well👍🏼

The dance sequence was cheezy as hell😃But heck, I enjoyed it fully😃The tune for which Aigiri nandini was sung was so stirring and soulful. Never heard this chant in such a calm and serene rendition. Loved it The only thing, I didn't like is the doctors shocked the heck out of ASR. I kid you not, I counted 18 shocks in toto😲, may be I missed some when I had to let the puppy out. They shocked the heck out of a FLATLINE. I guess after that medical electrocution, you have no choice other than sit up and say " what 's up" if you are bound to live, that isTrivia for the day, never shock the heck out of a FLATLINE in a hospital. If you are a lay person on the field and encounter somebody unresponsive, you won't harm an already out of the door personby shocking. You get the idea. That is for another time, another platform and another discussion. Moving on......

Adi guy is a infallible bacha as always. Always a bechara, hoodwinked and taken advantage of by either Malini, the villagers, Imlie or ASR. He is the pristine white knigh but powerless, gullible and innocent🤬 Samajh gaye. So, he showed the file with paper cuttings kept by ASR. Other than a cancelled picture of Adi guy, usmein itna kya classified information tha, that would incriminate ASR as a predator? Chalo, maann bhi lenge that ASR is trying to barbadofy Adi guy, how is Imlie being used? So far, aisa kya kar liya ASR ne, ki Adi guy lost something. If he started to assume things about ASR and Imlie, how is ASR to blame in this? I do not get it.The actor is getting a foothold of the role now. Adi guy is a mean and petty insaan🤬

Imlie's defense of ASR is clear and straightforward.👏 How she felt in his company, how he groomed her to handle fear, work ethic, disappointment, conviction to stand up and get going.👍🏼 The only person outside of parivaar ( I am assuming she is inferring Meethi and dadda only ) who stood by her with no expectations in return. Where is the faida for ASR when he stood between her and death, bombs and flesh trade? Here she scored points with me❤️🤗Good going, Imlie. Again, beautiful lines from writers👍🏼 I guess I need to give it to them when credit is due👏

ASR, as usual is phenomenal👍🏼. I don't know how seasoned this actor is , but he is acing his performance in this role👏He uses his voice and body language in emoting. Bas, itna hi knowledge hain mujhe acting and drama ki, his performance moves me👍🏼That pause as he says that he doesn't know how to live if something happens to his sister, mother and .......Beautifully done with no doubts left for both his sister and mom who seem to know this guy inside and out🤗The discomfort of locking eyes in front of family translates into folding hands🤣

Sorry, became long. I thoroughly enjoyed the episode. A +++👍🏼

That is it from me😊
