1) Loved the mud scene mainly for Avinash's expressions as Shlok. Astha slips first and Shlok extends his hands to support her and then both tumble in the mud. Shlok opens his eyes, looks and then there is a "how the heck did I land here" expression. Then tries to get up and is again pushed down by Astha and he scrunches his forehead and looks at Astha with "what on the earth is she doing" expression...then again tries to get up and again forced down...he closes his eyes with a "God give me patience" look and again gives her a "Are you mad! What are you doing". Finally after the fourth fall, he moves his hand that was around Astha's back and clenches his fist (showing trying to control his anger). Then finally drags himself up with Astha taking his support and also getting up...he shakes her off him. Astha starts with her talk and Shlok is looking left and right and completely ignoring her...Shlok is trying to ignore her but it is Astha who is poking him and digging holes for herself.

2) Then in the beginning when Astha thinks that she is dreaming that Shlok is present in front of her...I liked how the director indicated to Astha that it is a dream...I mean the raindrop falling on her face and her realizing that all this is real. All the dreams have happened with Astha and not with Shlok. It has always been Astha who chases Shlok knowing what is going to happen. Astha has a huge ego and she thinks that Shlok is following her to take revenge for the award ceremony fiasco and also because she rejected him. Astha is spoilt and pampered at home. Everyone sings praises of her, it is only Shlok who either ignores her or clearly shows that he cannot stand the sight off her. Wonder whether she goes after Shlok because subconsciously she finds it strange that this person does not give her any importance and always brushes her away. I know that she is very passionate about her causes and does not think before taking any action, I am just trying to see whether there are any other reasons other than that. Shlok's assistant was right, if Astha had not been present then the elderly ladies in the old age home might have been able to convince Shlok regarding not to go for this plot of land. Just because it was Astha, the ladies have now landed in a big hot soup.

3) Liked the scene in Agnihotri family. This son in law is not liked by the members of the family. Anjali was cordial and on her best behavior because being traditional, she won't cross the line regarding being rude to the son in law. But she quietly rebuffs the son in law when he starts talking about Shlok and award ceremony. Also, she does not enquire about her daughter not visiting. It was Sojal who brought up the reference towards the daughter. Same is with Niranjan...the son in law again tries to show his compassion towards Shlok and the family regarding the fiasco and Niranjan in his own way rebuffs him and asked him to speak about the reason of his visit. Also both Shlok and Varad exchange glances with each other when they all sit down and both shake hands with the brother in law and do not show any signs of affection. When Niranjan asks Shlok to accompany the son in law to see the property, Shlok actually does not want to go. He wants to take care of the problem that has been created by him and to me it seemed that he sees this brother in law like a hindrance. He only goes because Niranjan quietly and indirectly tells him to go. Looks like none of them like this person and they all know that he has come to visit them because he wants something. Now the exchange of glance that happened between Sojal and Vinayak chachaji makes sense...both exchanged glances when Anjali was telling Niranjan that the son in law has arrived and that he will be visiting them. Looks liked Sojal and Vinayak also know that he is coming because he is after something. It is strange that none of the parents enquired about the daughter. Even the brothers also didn't. Even when the son in law said in front of Anjali that the daughter is not well, then also she did not react. What is going on here? I mean regarding the daughter.

4) I am liking Avdhutji more and more...he is a real, genuine and innocent person. I was smiling seeing his happiness regarding Astha getting a call letter for an interview from a big company and then boasting about to it to an acquaintance. Also found his offer of pani puri party very cute...no wonder it is so easy to manipulate him.

Myra, as usual great title.

Astha is the one who seems to be more affected by Shlok rather than the other way around. He genuinely thinks of her as a pest and she rubs him the wrong way. She is the one who can not let go. He actually was looking disturbed at plight of senior women; it does seem that he has compassion somewhere. He probably would have tried to find a better alternative but for Astha. The PA was shaking his head looking at Astha. He was right that probability of saving Ashram has gone to zero with Astha bringing her usual interference. So the more Astha spoke, the more Shlok reacted against the women. Astha does have a lot of self importance where she feels that Shlok's motives revolve around her, probably because her thoughts revolve around him even if in fear. So she gave him additional information that she was the one to reject him and that's why his ego was hurt. She can be completely clueless as she is too used to being the center of attention to realize that things like this may not matter to a person like Shlok.

The scenes between Shlok and Astha were good especially as how they reversed the treatment of standard encounters between leads of love stories. Instead of the hero thinking that girl is a figment of his imagination (when he is day dreaming about her), here it is heroine who is thinking he is a figment of her nightmares and calls him "demon" (rakshas) on his face. So the same scene was presented in a different form and it turned out to be hilarious. The same was done with the mud scene where she is the one to make him fall in the mud. Then Astha being Astha dragged him down again 4 times and yet even in the end, she took his support (with no desire on his part to do so) to get up. Again a different treatment of regular type of scene. So I liked this different interpretation of same scenes. This was same that was done for the rain sequence.

The highlight of the episode was again the dynamics among different Agnihotri members and that was more interesting to me than Astha/Shlok scenes. So the son in law is not some harmless nice guy. He is cunning and father/sons know it. Anjali follows all traditions and gave him the warm welcome along with snacks and smiles. She did not ask about him not bringing her daughter for a visit, but it was Sojal who brought that up. Jyoti (Shlok and Varad's sister) was described as delicate by her husband. Wonder why is that? He seemed to be putting an act in front of her, but Anjali seemed aware of his reasons for coming there. But she was more than willing to let Niranjan help him because she is so traditional. Sojal were getting commands while the SIL was getting all smiles.

However, the interesting scene was when Niranjan followed by Shlok & then Varad came down. So both brothers do not like their sister's husband. Niranjan too was dismissive of him. But he being the shrewd one knew that the SIL had come for a reason. He dismissed his fake concern and rightaway asked him about the work. The music was playing while he let SIL know that he was aware of his reason for coming there. Varad also doesn't seem to like him because he exchanged glances with Shlok. But he remained quite and neutral. Shlok showed his displeasure quite openly (as he is open about his likes/dislikes unlike Varad/Niranjan). He also refused to go with him, but agreed at Niranjan's insistence. So they are trying to operate a franchise of colleges (wonder if these are donation colleges). Is Niranjan still the owner with the SIL being given one franchise to operate? Coming episodes will tell. The son in law is quite greedy because he was gleeful about Shlok reducing the time for women to vacate the property. He was apprehensive before about Shlok accompanying him, but then became happy when Shlok did something he himself wanted. So that family scene was again intriguing. Varad does not get along with the father, but is like him in nature and does stand by him and Shlok in everything. Shlok is the loyal son who does not seem to know his father much. Niranjan as usual was the enigmatic one controlling everyone including the SIL.

Mirela you always come out with some interesting title , Now have to come specially to see your title and your take on the episode . SIL does not have some good impression in the family , but being the SIL , he is given the respect by Anjali , Shalok was neutral , no expressions , when ever want to write , its 9 , so will meet you later , but it was full of action curtsey tornado where everything goes haywire

Mud scene had me laughing whole heartedly. That was so cute. AsHlok were super cute (ShreNash hats off guys! ).

The new entry is mysterious in a negative way. I am not getting good vibes from the guy. A man unable to see the helplessness of aged woman with no where to go doesn't get any brownie points from me. Shlok had the decency to look uncomfortable with the dealing (or maybe he simply doesn't like anything to do with his brother in law , but then the fact that he mentioned another land makes me think otherwise). He only took matters into his hand and became involved when Astha madam stepped *here comes his motivation😆*. Ah! AsHlok you have me putty in your hands.
