I HAD to write about today's episode! Apu blew me away completely! I had truly forgotten how incredible this episode was...Apu did full justice to Armaan's pain and guilt today...I was floored once again.
In retrospect, I think this is the Armaan avatar I loved the most...his finally realizing his love the fullest, and then fighting the ways of the world alone to obtain what he deprived himself of for so many months...Jassi's Love.
He fought all the sources against him today...and with each battle, he became more and more passionate about his cause...First with Raj, then Mallika, then Indira Bhargav herself...each time, he stepped it up a bit more...willing to do anything to set things right.
I Loved the way he cut Raj off to remind him that Jessica was his very own Jassi....and how he said if they themselves didn't believe it, how would they convince the world?
I Cheered him on as he set Mallika straight...telling her she had always missed out on his love...that she, in the end, wasn't ever worthy of his love b/c she never understood the true meaning of love...In the end, he assured her that now nothing could get in the way of his battle...and no obstacle would slow him down...in the end, they would win...meaning, his Jassi would win. It was BRILLIANT! Mallika needed a tight slap to shake her out of her twisted senses, and Armaan obliged her today...it was spectacular!
In the end, I shared his pain as he stood outside Indira Bhargav's door, hanging on by a thread, to the last ounce of hope he had left. Apu was brilliant as ever here...my chest tightened with pain and I found myself crying and pleading along with him...this last bit was brilliant...he left her with no choice but to bend her rules...uff, Armu was too good...the pain in his eyes...the longing in them....that look screamed "please say you'll help...if I can't help my Jassi, I'll die of guilt..." But not just for himself...he was there for Jassi's family too...Armaan doesn't just love his Jassi, he loves her family because he knows how incredibly important they are for her...Armaan is nothing without Jassi, but Jassi is nothing without her family...Armu knows and realizes that...Armaan's every breath may be connected to Jassi's...but he knows that Jassi's every breath is connected to that of her family, so truly to save the love of his life, he pleaded not just for her, but for her family as well...It was so very beautiful...Beautifully written, directed, and executed...
Apu, You Never Seize To Amaze Me! Hats Off!!! 👏
