LOVED Manav's acting...his hurt, his anger at Shruti...bang on...the confrontation was SO well written...from both sides...Sanjay feeling hurt that Shruti treated him like an outsider when he considers her his best friend...he scolded her like an APNA...
And Shruti for her part feels Sanjay is doing too much...actually labeled all his help and support as CHARITY, hurting him even more in the process...
What came across the most to me in this scene was how deep their bond runs...before Shruti was a wife, a mother...they have this history together...and it is that history due to which Sanjay is so connnected and concerned for her...in that he doesn't care about anything else...and while Shruti in general gives that bond the same regard, of late, she has taken so many blows that she feels upset and cornered...so lashes out at the one person she can lash out at...her best friend.
I loved that this confrontation didn't have any romantic connotations to it...Sanjay is hurt on a very bone deep level and that is what came through the most...maybe he is in transition regarding his feelings...but this moment right here was about two individuals who deeply care for each other and were expressing their HURT and ANGUISH to each other.
Loved it!
It's a pleasure watching Manav and Gautami act togetherđđ
