I too have a soft corner do Myuri for what she's gone through and her positivity posts I see. Looking forward to see her as Malini on screen.
I haven't seen before Aryan"s entry. Somehow exactly at that time I tuned into Imilie and thank god for that. I have seen clips and episode here and there and have just a little understanding of those episodes.
I agree, I see her as the main victim in the earlier episodes. She's kind of like pushed into where she's now due to the circumstances she was surrounded by and the environment she's grew up in. With all the cruel reality Imilie grew up in, in a way Imilie was blessed with a strong support system in the form of her Mother and Dutta. Where Malini had all in front of the society but she's kind of like one of those unheard child. She had all but still no one to support/guide her. With all that she's grew up with she still maintained a balanced goodness within her which is praise worthy.
I remember some scenes like Adi give his Kada to Imilie after they were drenched in the rain then he mang filling with apparently Malini's kumkum I think. Those were behind her back. This betrayal combined with the insecure family environment she was brought up in, her parent"s history, has turned her bitter. As far as I understand she was devoted to the relationship with Adi. Must be thinking after seven long years her life won't turn out to be like her mother's. That too loosing to her step-sister . She has gone through quite a lot. I am no way advocating her criminal activities but she's a victim who didn't have strong support system to turn it around in a positive way instead her mother furled it. Would love to see Imilie's redemption of her part too. Too see both of them supporting each other and finally Malini to get a positive support system in need of times in the form of Imilie and Aryan. I want her to eventually find a partner who truly loves her for who she is and she doesn't have to loose herself in the me of love.
I like the BGM , like the way you described. It is haunting. I am Scared
For Arylie. I would like to see some happy moments before the stron. They've been through so much. It sounds like mind games will be played. I really hope the writers have some good contents in hand.
