Hello forum waasi's!
For those who havent watched the episode today on hotstar yet, shoo...go away and watch it on TV or Hotstar , not only because this post contains spoilers for today's epi but also because this is one epi that you shouldn't miss!!

So among the other things, today's epi had quite a few things that deserve a mention!

The horrible terrible misunderstanding is cleared at last...we cried and begged for it to be revealed for over a month and finally Shivaay is humbled to know that he was wrong all along from Soumya. And that beautiful bit of Shivaay Sahil bonding!

And Daksh's madness and brief moments where he phones up a tensed Shivaay who initially tries to keep it together when Daksh reveals how much he had lied to drive a wedge in between him and Ani and finally threatens him and his realisation that Daksh was indeed Ani's stalker and Ani was with him!!

And that dialogue...tumhe kuch hone se pehle Shivay Singh Oberoi ki jaan jayegi aur Shivay Singh Oberoi ki jaan itni aasani se nahi jayegi...I just loved it!!

And ofcourse Surbhi as Anika, touching the face of the man she loved on that screen and crying was moving..but I am used to her good acting and nailing such scenes. And usually she is my favourite in most episodes.

But then came the precap!!
Which actually made me write this post!! And I was just stunned!! What phenomenal acting!! Nakuul was just brilliant as Shivaay! That moment he thinks Ani is gone, his tadap, his raw anguish and pain was just so brilliantly portrayed!! That heart rending speech on how it didn't matter that she drove him mad with her incessant talk but he wanted to continue listening to it anyway, begging her to talk, begging her to call out to him by any name she wished, be it Billu or Shivaay or anything she wanted , just anything followed by him crying out her name! I am literally speechless!!

Nakuul Mehta, please take a bow for that wonderful bit of acting!! You lived Shivaay in the precap !! His despair, his loss, his pain !! And kudos to the dialogue writers for writing such dialogues which pull on your heartstrings!!

That mere 15 seconds brought me to tears literally!! So tommorow I am going to keep my tissue box ready!! And I realise that I may just have to eat my words that this man is incapable of redemption!

Love,
Anu

Spot on! couldnt agree more dear... what a terrific performance by both...
and the precap : it took my breath away... i felt the painful twinge in my heart god damn it what a spectacular nerve prick action was that... Nakul... standing ovation to him
and Surbhi - she is a landmine of expressions

and karan : if the above two have mastered us to take on tornado ride with their love and hate story this fellow he is a hurricane ...acting like an obsessed lover torturing a girl - be it acting is really tough and by god spine shivering sadistic act ...

while describing too i am feeling the reverie of it ...

Literally had to lie down after watching the episode. Gob smacking, jaw dropping, gasp inducing, heart clutching, involuntary tears invoking episode.

The trio out did themselves: Nakuul, Surbhi and Karan were gripping in their roles, each in their desperate madness. I was speechless when it finished, snipershot hit me right in the feels!!

Shivaay realizes Annika was innocent after all. She was actually that innocent, sabse acchi girl that he thought her as. And he broke her with his accusations. Her last words were ringing in his ears.

Until he heard Sahil's sobbing. I loved it that he was caring enough to comfort that hurting little boy. How heart breaking was it when Sahil said, "My sister is the best in the world. Best ever! Why do people keep accusing her of things??"

Having to explain to a young boy, how his prejudices had blurred and influenced his view of Annika. Painfully admitting his wretched misery and wanting to redeem himself to her.

Ladies and gents, Shivaay's redemption has arrived. Sappy person I am, I feel sorry for him already...

He bursts through her house door, but immediately saw she wasn't there. He finds her broken phone and he called out to her, the worry in his voice unmistakable.

Uncannily, Daksh calls right then, with more revelations. That he was the stalker who tortured Annika, her knew of their marriage and had orchestrated all their misunderstandings very shrewdly.

Say your final farewells, because Annika is going to die tonight, and you will suffer as you live.

Annika's shaken and pleading call for him really touched a nerve in me. I dunno how she made her voice sound like that, but it contained so much feeling: despair, love, grief, hope. She touched his image with so much devotion , it was heartbreaking. She really was saying goodbye. Knowing he would take care of Sahil for her.

(Not sure why Shivaay let go of his phone as he spoke to the camera... didn't he want to hear her??😕 )

But the message in his promise was loud and clear. "I am coming for you, Annika. I am not easily defeated. Just hang on, for me."

Just before hanging up, they manage to communicate on their location, and Shivaay runs like apocalypse is chasing him...

Meanwhile, Annika is tossed into a chamber, slowly filling with water. I thought if she floated up a little she could've reached the top, but well, we must leave logic somewhere safe for another time.

The way she put her hands together and begged Daksh. And he laughed and filmed her. This guy should get just punishment!!

The precap killed me.

Seeing Shivaay like that, raw in anguish! They literally pulled out my beating heart and squeezed it. I've seen it before in Asad, and Arnav, but this was something else. GK just created THE scene every story writer in here's had been imagining in their heads for months now.

I'm going to cry too much tomorrow...must keep painkillers ready...

Anu lovely post and Nakuul just slays it everytime, one of the finest telly actors around atm and he is living SSO for us ❤️
Nakuul deserves all the Accolades for his phenomenal acting and emoting each scene to perfection and making us laugh & cry along with him !!

This Kanji Eyed Munda nails every scene he does <3 😆

He just killed us with the mere look of him in precap, can't wait for tomorrow's episode and Shivay's anguish, his suffering and that pain to see his love unconscious, almost lifeless in his arms...that messy wet hair look and those intense eyes...this guy is killing us with his expressions, those puppy dog faces and those lumps in his throat! 😆
What a brilliant casting of Shivay Singh Oberoi !Hope he gets rewarded for his great work...<3

I agree Anu. It made me almost forget what he did to Annika himself. It was painful to see him in torment that his 'sabse pyaree cheez' was taken away from him and there was absolutely nothing he could do about it. He got his own personal 'boom' experience cutesy Daksh.
I can give a sigh of relief now - the slow and painful journey of redemption has begun at last. I just hope that it is not hurried because a proper redemption is important.

What stood out for me in the entire episode was the buildup. He went from realization of his wrongs, to the enormity of his guilt to tryng to set that aside to handle a little crying child. And still you could see him struggle with what he's done, but trying to comfort Sahil, until Sahil points out his Didi is missing--and the premonition a little brother has, about his sister..just NOT being okay, because she isn't answering his calls. . And instantly, you can see Shivaay's mounting unease-- like, a crawling sense of that connection they have, telling him, just TELLING him there is something wrong.

I don't find it surprising he headed straight to Anika's house. A lot of friends on the forum find this to be a blooper, but I think we can all be sure by now, that he hasn't sold it. He just said that to stop Sahil and Anika leaving him that day. I mean, come on, even if he'd sold it, wouldn't he buy it back at double the price when he saw its a handicapped little kid's only remaining home? At some point, I'd like Anika to demand to know which mahaan prani bought her house, since it has her stuff in it, and she can get into it with her keys and no one is there to stop her ! 😆

I am not surprised by the way he showed up there either. I think he knows, too, that she goes to her house like a wounded animal whenever life gets too much for her. And so, he goes there, unerringly drawn to where she might be. I found his initial interaction with Daksh very SSO like--he is so cold and controlled, imagine how any other hero would have reacted-- screaming and hollering and breaking things in a manic rage. But not this one--the only point where his voice hitches and breaks is when he knows she is listening to him--and his reassurance...I'm not so easy to kill-- tadi baaz ka taari! But it worked, didn't it? because for a moment, she believed it, she registered his strength, and smiled at her Shivaay.

OOoff, if I didn't know she is about to give him bhao in two episodes by storming off to sleep by the pool-side, tomorrow's episode would leave me wrecked and ready to just die from the feels. But I will watch along with you, Anu and the ladies here, and cry and cry and be happy our Shivika has returned.

Nakuul was truly incredible. I posted before on his guy's ability to just take over the screen, before the wedding crap pissed us all off --- when all I could focus on in spite of the dancing and Surbhi's fantastic work was Nakuul's face during the sangeet and engagement scene. But this episode, with the nuanced acting and the buildup--along with of course those iconic 15 seconds--blew me out of the water.. pun intended! 😆
