Epi wasn't very bad. I fast forwarded Pinky-Annika room conversation. Other than that, it was a fair epi.
1)Shivaay wasn't wrong in his place. He didn't say he's embarrassed because of Annika. He didn't. He said he's embarrassed because such things were said about his mother.
2) Proud of Annika for speaking out today. 3)But because she repeatedly kept questioning and blaming Pinky, Shivaay got frustrated. His reaction is justified.
4)His mother's izzat is his, just like Annika's is his. So I didn't find anything wrong in him saying that SSO's sar jhuk gaya.
It was too much to take in too little time. Give the guy a break!
5)Annika was right in her place and Shivaay was right in his.
6) However, what Shivaay said about Annika not understanding a mother-child relationship cause she doesn't have a mother was wrong. It was a very insensitive thing to say, agreed. But, Shivaay realised his mistake and apologised for 'tumhari maa' blunder. He's a human after all. He is bound to make mistakes but what makes a difference is that he immediately felt guilty. He couldn't meet Annika's eyes after saying that and he left the room.
7)Likewise, to save their relationship, I liked that Annika acted mature and apologised. She now knows there's a big threat to them, so she's going to be more careful in protecting what they have.
8) It was really sad how Annika was cornered by both Pinky and NT, but none of it was Shivaay's fault.Now, Pinky's over-confident. She went to get the mehndi WITH PRINKU. So Prinku is a witness to Pinky buying the faulty mehndi. I'm hoping for Pinky's expose in the mehndi ceremony, if it's not another of Pinky's plans to trap Annika. Anyway, I don't think Annika'll jeopardise her marriage by blaming Pinky again. Her job's done. She's told Shivaay. It's upto him to handle this now.
9)Shivaay stopped NT when she was badmouthing Annika.Another thing I noticed was, when Pinky was being taken to her room, Shivaay didn't stop Annika from helping. I don't know how to explain that gesture, but I was thankful for it.
10)Shivaay's mind didn't drift in the direction NT pushed him to think. He didn't for a second think that Annika was trying to break the mother-son relationship. Instead, he defended Annika by saying that she has misunderstood.
11)I liked ShivKara and AniRi conversation today.
Shivika's kitchen scene was adorable and sweet. Liked how they apologised, their teasing and their comfort while hugging infront of Rikara. How Shivaay looked behind at Om, and then the way Rikara lowered their gazes.😆
12)And about Shivaay not agreeing to listen to Om and Annika, the guy's in denial right now. Too much has been thrown at him at the moment, so he's not in a good state now. Give him the time. The guy's changed so much for the better. He'll come around.
