At the Kapoor mansion SM is trying to convince Vivaan with Laali's help. She tells him, his goodness makes him trust the Dhingras but now is the time for truth. Vivaan listens in silence and barely contains his annoyance when Laali starts to speak about her honesty. 🤢 Laali tells him his marriage was no coincidence. (Batman narrows his eyes. 😆) She tells him it was intentional, with the sort of planning which vamps on TV shows do...(Batman does not watch serials. 😆)
Meera is at the orphanage or NGO looking at files. After looking through several files she finds something...(The office person is so sweet. 😊)
Laali blames the Dhingras of being calculated. (Like us, Vivaan wishes she would get to the point. 😳)
She claims Sumair's betrayal and the face-blackening was all part of the a plan...
Meera comes out with some papers in her hand but can not find a rickshaw. She thinks, there is no transport on the day she is in a hurry to get back to Vivaan...
Laali tells Vivaan he is intelligent enough to know she is one of the Dhingras and so she must know everything. She and SM exchange looks... 🤢
Vivaan turns away from SM and Laali...
Meera is shown running home...
Vivaan thinks about what he has just heard...
Meera stops to catch her breath and the afternoon sun shines on her...
Vivaan thinks back to Meera questioning SM on proving Pammi Kapoor's death. He remembers Meera telling him that he forms their relationship and she will be the one to break it...
Vivaan glances at SM for a second and then strides away.
AT the Dhingra home Beeji thinks it is Vivaan's first birthday after marriage and he will not come. Dolly tells her that every marriage has problems and Amar says no, this is not like every other marriage. It is not normal for the boy's mother to insult the girl's family everyday. Everyone is quite. AD speaks of how SM accused him of doing so many things to get his daughter married. He questions what do they not have, what are they greedy for. Panjabis pride their daughters. They do not go to every street and plead with people to take their daughter. Panjabi's defend the honour of their daughters etc. 👏 He says if SM was not Vivaan's mother he would have answered back to her. He then thinks living with a woman like that, Vivaan can not remain good for long. (Loved what you said till this point Amar Uncle. 🤔)
Beeji tells him to speak positively. AD declares the fate of MeerVaan relationship will be decided today. 😲 (And we thought only Dolly did emotional drama. 😆)
SM is pleased with Laali's work and tells her to get lost. 🤣
Vivaan is walking towards the Dhingra side as Meera runs in and comes towards him. They see each other and stop. Music starts for 'Dekho Na' song. Meera walks through to the Kapoor side, Vivaan slowly walks towards her, they stand and look at one another. Amaya is showing Nimmo a party-popper on the landing above and it accidentally bursts, showering MeerVaan with glitter. Music plays on and MeerVaan are just lost in the moment. (There was more to this sequence but you have to watch to appreciate it. )
SM watches MeerVaan. Meera shows Vivaan a photograph of him and Amaya as infants and asks if he recognises it. His silence confirms he does. She calls him Mannu Ji, his childhood name and comments, he has been filled with anger since he lost that name. She shows him a notebook with his London address and Vivaan is left speechless. Vivaan becomes defensive when Meera mentions his mother leaving. According to the police, his mother was killed in the first twenty-four hours of leaving home, but Preeto was put in an orphanage exactly twenty-four hours later. Pammi and Preeto's mother were very good friends so if Pammi is dead, Preeto's mother should have been alive. (Glad the CVs cleared that confusion for us. 😕😆)
SM is listening to all this. 🤔 Meera asks if PK is dead then who is the Pammi.K sending Preeto the money through the orphanage? Meera gives all the letters and papers to Vivaan, telling him it is all there but not his mother's address. She assures him she will find that too and he seems to trust her words.
SM stops Meera, telling her that PK is dead and by talking about her will not make her alive. Meera tells Vivaan the choice is his, as to which truth and proof he will believe. He looks from SM to Meera and walks away in anger. SM is relieved that she was spared from doing any emotional acting, gloats about her success.
Meera is angry with Vivaan. She joins the Dhingras and Amaya. Dolly asks her to check where Vivaan is and Amaya has faith that Meera will make him come. Meera tells everything there is no point in their preparations and in anger bursts some of the balloons. AD shakes his head and the rest are shocked. (Sherni is really hurt but Amaya went to so much trouble. )
Meera trips in the corridor and Vivaan trips against the bed. They remember how Vivaan saved Meera from falling. MeerVaan speak to each other in thought. (Aaawww. 😊)
Meera - You have saved me every time, why didn't you save me today?
Vivaan - How could I? When I have fallen myself this time.
'Kitni Baatein' songs plays. Meera cries and Vivaan is upset...
Meera - Look at the truth and you will never fall.
Vivaan - When there is one truth it is easy, but when there are many truths it becomes hard to understand.
Song plays on and both stand up...
Meera - Listen to your heart and you will understand which truth can be trusted.
Vivaan - When a man is in the habit of only using his brain, his heart stops speaking.
Song continues on MeerVaan's anguish...Vivaan picks up the papers Meera gave him.
Vivaan opens the laptop and is surprised to see pages related black magic etc. He then checks some papers. SM walks in and starts speaking badly of Indians, saying they try to prove themselves right even after the truth is known. Vivaan does not want to hear it. She wants to book tickets back to London. Vivaan tells her, considering she is a good business woman she has made loss on her latest deal. She paid Laali Bua five laakh rupees. Vivaan tells her he does not make claims without proof and shows SM her bank statement. He apologises for checking her account, but he had to reveal the truth. Vivaan catches SM's phone and keeps it because she might drop it again, after what he is about to tell her. Vivaan has found pages related to BM and voodoo in the search history and asks what she was doing. SM tries to speak but Vivaan stops her. He directs SM's words against Indians back to her. 👏 He warns her, he was betrayed by the one person who should be trusted the most (his mother) and his does not have the will nor the patience to tolerate another betrayal. He asks SM not to do anything which will direct his anger towards her. He would not like it and she neither would she. (Batman strikes again. )
Before walking out of the room, he tells SM that all the proof shows that PK is alive and that mean SM words have less weight. Vivaan believes his mother will not die before meeting him once more.
SM goes insane and starts to smash things after Vivaan goes. Shouting she killed PK. (I am surprised Vivaan didn't hear her. 😲😆)
Meera returns to the party and ask why everyone is still waiting for Vivaan when it makes no differnece to him. She goes to switch the lights off but Vivaan stops her. He tries to walk towards everyone and Meera blocks his way. He tries again and she does not let him pass. Meera is angry but Vivaan looks at her calmly and with a hint of a smile. (Aawww, they are so cute, despite the dramatic music😆)
Pre-cap : SM comes to the party. She shouts that Meera is lying and that she killed Pammi Kapoor.
My opinion - A great episode.
So much happened and many questions were answered too. I loved how the show was edited today. Switching between Meera and Vivaan scenes. Vivaan was even smarter today and Meera more determined. A beautiful subconscious bond has formed between them and it will be interesting to see how Vivaan defuses her anger and attends his own party. 😆 Aditi and Arjit's expressions are a treat to watch and get better with each episode. 👏
