From a story standpoint, today's episode was part of the same arc as the other episodes in this week. The CVs continue to move forward with the same story line they intended to highlight in this week/fortnight - Dev./Sona romancing and restless without each other, others suspecting changes in their lives, Ish upset with the changes and proximity with Sona..and the story moving towards the big reveal
BUT everyone liked/loved the episode for the simple reason that the characters stayed true to their original traits..
Dev - Back to his usual manly assertive self.not to mention his restlessness and desire for Sona plus above all clearly respecting her professional counsel and stating that firmly to every one. Referring to her in public as his mom's doc and bringing her up in the discussion with his guests too and with so much respect. The bonus shot - the glare directed at mami for her crass words
Sona - nice attitude today, did not nag but highlighted how busy he was. She was also supportive and asked about his meeting. and the best part is that she was back to speaking like how her character should and not like a star plus bahu. she came across as a fun, attractive, loving and very desirable GF! How can Dev resist her? I also liked how she chided him for inking her. The bonus shot - spoke something when mami talked crap and did not start her statue imitation. CVs - please keep this up and also start giving her a life
Ish- well she continued to act possessive, insecure and immature (insisting on cooking when unwell - I have low patience for elderly folks who do this because it always backfires even if it is motivated by affection). However, what made is all palatable is that her not normal behavior did not rain on Dev and Sona's party today. It is always disturbing to see the leads helpless in the face of the machinations of the antagonists or Ish in this case since in their story she will keep them apart. Especially when they are two professionally successful and mature adults, it is annoying to get the impression that they have no control over their lives/outcomes
Above all, the episode had a happy vibe!
Amidst all this I still cannot help feeling very annoyed at Ish's blatant partiality towards the son - Dev. Does she stay awake for Nikki/Riya/call/visit Neha? if instead of Dev, it was Neha talking about Ranveer would she feel this way. her son is so precious but her daughters are so common that she is prepared for an alliance after meeting the guy just once! I just wish the CVs had made her a possessive mom in general or atleast towards more than 1 kid instead of just Dev. Very tough for me as a woman to stomach this! Moms and daughters have such a lovely bond and I am disappointed that they do not show her missing Neha at all but worried about Dev coming a little late!
