Narcissistic Pinky takes centerstage and proudly extolled all the deeds she had to do to safeguard her son's Name, legacy and continued success.
Absolutely unrepentant, I was quite startled to see her enumerate all her steps one by one , on all the things she did to get rid of Annika .
To her, the tree she had planted, watered, pruned and shaped, had grown into a majestic oak that puts others to shame. He was proud, damned good at his trade and loved perfection. Shivaay Singh Oberoi, the Heir. And herself, Pinky Singh Oberoi, his mother.
She had done a lot more than we had expected, even as far as conspiring in his kidnapping. (This made little sense as she was as blindsided as everyone else by Mahi. Not to forget Mahi was after her as a personal target.) Only the Nayantara story wasn't included.
To my utter shock, she turned to Shivaay and said "See, to what low levels your mother had to stoop to , to protect you from being sullied by the likes of HER?! And you speak of what she has done for you? What about all that I have done for you? She's not fit to be the shoes on your feet!!?
Wow.. NKK is too strong in this one.
Shivaay listened in horror and pieces everything together. His mother made up a lie about him being the son of a mistress and the whole family rallied around to protect him from that secret.
That day he thought his world collapsed because the woman he loved left, was actually the day his family protected him.
There he thought he was sacrificing love to protect his family by throwing her out, turns out they were protecting him from the enemy inside.
Om took on the naajayaz label upon himself, and his parents kept quiet FOR Shivaay. Annika degraded herself in everyone's eyes For Shivaay.
Poor chap must have been overwhelmed by the love.
I dont know what could've been worse; if he found out he was the son of a mistress or that his mother could call him one just to suit her purposes.
Nakuul was stellar in this scene. Just Wow. Blew my mind away. Couldnt have done it better.
If he was a mess with the truth under bhaang, in full consciousness he was like a nuclear fission. Fury , sadness , disgust, complete rejection.
"This person is not my mother. She is Mrs Pinky Singh Oberoi. She takes pride in my name, not who I am. In fact he did exactly what Omkara did with his own father, rejecting him, referring him as Mr. Oberoi. No he did not leave the house or his family, not the ones who shielded him so much.
But he put aside the toxic relationship with Pinky.
Wow. Only Shivaay can be so severe. He walked out of the scene but he had left only for Pinky. He needed time alone. Annika paced her room and then he called.
Overwhelmed, he couldn't form the words. What could he have wanted to say?
I'm so sorry Annika
I need you Annika. Just come please.
I love you
It could have been any of the above, or other, We never know. But Annika understood and went to him. Finding him, to explain that all their troubles were water under the bridge now and not to think too much.
He insists, saying what She has done for him is too much, and she says he has done just as much for her. Lamenting on not trusting each other, They solemnly promised to never hide the truth from each other.
Satisfied that she'd sorted that out, but still a bit unsure that he might still want to be alone, she moved to leave. Is it appropriate to tell him now that she loves him so much? When he's so upset about his mother?? Maybe later.. I'll go now.
He stops her, "Don't go... He welcomes her into his silent contemplative place, she joins him as he looked at the moonlit sky and thought of what comes next.
No words are needed as he takes her hand and kisses them in apology. She, aghast , forgives it all instantly, seeing tears in his eyes.
Watching them gently console each other and softly move to embrace, it was as beautiful as watching them say "I Love You , maybe even more so. Like words would've failed somehow.
With resolve he smiled grimly and took her hand to leave, but then Ragini arrived with another foolish plan to insult Annika in public.
This time Shivaay takes reins and swiped away all notions with his signature style. She is Annika, she is still my wife. I dont care about where she came from, but i care about her and her future.
He goes down on his knees and proposes, confident that she won't say No this time. Love shining in her eyes, she says Yes, and we all dissolve in collective happy sighs... they go home to celebrations and cake, preparing for a grand wedding.
Precap: Mr. Chalu Cheez is not allowed to go near his wife till the wedding. Can't wait to see him go past all loopholes because this fellow is unstoppable.
Goodness the way he ate cake from her fingers gave me blushes!!
Happy Shivika reunion everyone!!!
