Thanks Rekha..am yet to hit weekly thread for the night.

------
I was all set to write a weekly analysis from next week, but couldn't resist. Smile The highlight of the episode was the Dev-Ishwari conversation. As posted by few writers here, there was complete indifference on the part of Dev. He came to see his mother not as a ritual, but as a formality. Gone is the Dev who discussed everything with his 'Maa', touched her feet before leaving her and smiled and talked to her, kept his head on her lap - I felt sad seeing Ishwari's face. She was waiting anxiously for 'her Dev'. She knows he is lost somewhere and that's why Sonakshi's name was brought into the conversation. She wanted to see him react. She wanted to see her old Dev who smiled and showed feelings. This Dev was playing a robot. Come and Go. A mere formality. That's all. Forgiveness is divine. Dev was always aware of his mothers possessiveness and expected Sonakshi to understand it too. She did. But not for long! Dev lied to see the two most important people in his life loving each other and living in harmony. It was an illusion. He should have told her the truth about everything, confided in her and they could have managed Ishwari so well. But, that's the past.

Ishwari brought this on herself 😳 There is only so much pressure can an elastic handle, you keep pulling, its going to snap hurting yourself in the process. Dev too snapped along with Sona and Ishwari is reaping the price now. Feeling for Ishwari is little difficult for me because the ruckus she created for that measly 5 crore (obviously when her son earns 100 times more😡) still irritates me😆 There are so many things they could have done right in the past but what to do when the makers wanted an ugly separation ? 😆

The second highlight was the meeting of Dev-Sonakshi. Sonakshi won an award but the moment Dev walked in, all the reporters with their cameras rushed to him for a byte. She was well dressed and he wore smart casuals drinking merrily. But, the pull of media towards him said it all. He was still famous. He still ruled - even after 7 years. The arresting look on his face as he faced Sonakshi, did it say, 'hey look at me.' I played the song "Against all odds" by Phil Collins in my head. The actors were brilliant here.

Yup even I noticed that ! Be it Mr.Obhodro or Mr.Flirt , Dev is slaying and still ruling😳. If not for their acting skills I would have taken my popcorn packets and fled😆

Dev appeared to know about Sonakshi coming to collect the award. He knows to stalk, audience has seen it before, is he still keeping tabs on her? Why? What for? Does he know about Suhani and gave her up w/out a fight? Does he want Sonakshi to come to him and confess about their child? Is he still confident that Sonakshi can love on one else? I don't know what is the Creatives story. Big smile

So many questions !😲 I wish I know the answers too but with this unpredictable CVs, we have to wait 🤔

Sonakshi has got the house back and plans to renovate it. It's evident that she hasn't let go of her past. Why? Is it only because her childhood memories still exits there or Bijoy had bought the house with a lot of Love and effort? Or is it because the house is located very close to the Dixit Mansion?

Its definitely not because it is close to Dixit Mansion😆 It has so many happy memories tainted with that ugly forceful exit. She wants to rewrite that closed chapter and bring smiles back in that house again😳

So, while some forumites are still indulging in painting the leads differently, I want to watch with a clean slate. Bijoy's anger in the previous episode triggered a thought that probably he would regret the outburst on Ishwari. He went down on his knees and apologised to Suhani. Well, I leave it there.

Even am starting to think Bijoy's outburst are shown for a reason. Will it trigger Sona to oppose Bijoy in future when he fumes at Suhana for being/enjoying with Dev? Something is cooking with every character , I just can't get the ingredients right😆

Interesting episodes ahead, I must say.

Edits : Actually, Elena behaviour is still a mystery to me. Vicky is not having all the shots at Ishwari Enterprises. Dev is still the boss. So, does Dev know what Vicky did that night? Has Dev chosen to ignore it and forgive Vicky? A lot is to revealed.
The smirk on Dev's face during the pre-cap is also a mystery. Sonakshi and Saurabh (presumably) builds a 400 crore empire in 7 years!! This was after taking a 5 crore loan mortgaging all their assets! I was waiting for this to be played out. The interest on a 5 crore loan assuming it to be for 15 years would be huge EMIs. And Sonsakshi only has a job as a nutritionist to pay the interest. Since she hasn't lost her home, I have to assume that she got investors to invest in her start up. Did Dev play the goodwill ambassador here and did she manage to get funds as Dev-Sonakshi marriage was well publicised. Not to undermine her hard work and intelligence, but in today's market, when all your assets are mortgaged and you only have a salary to hang on to, the logic of a 400 crore empire is very hard to digest- esp after retaining her assets, all in 7 years time! Well, makes me realise its a soap after all and did Dev contribute to her success by pledging his company!!!

huh logics in Indian TV🤔? Are you not expecting too much Rekha😆 Am happy to gloss it over because I want an equal match to takkar Dev now 😛

P.S:

* Dev closing his training company and Sona's successful start up company - any link? (I really hope no as I don't want any favor in Sona's business)

Dear,

Its trading company, ie., investment business Dev has. Start up company, is a new company which Sonakshi has,ie., started 7 yrs back and getting the award.

@Danseuse- There are many rags to riches story. Dev himself is one. I am assuming the family toiled hard together and pulled each other out.

Sonakshi's success does not surprise me. She was initially introduced as an intelligent girl who excelled in studies. If she puts her heart in business, she can do it too. Plus she had educated supportive parents , a fiery will to succeed, and most importantly having no funds ...is a need . The last she heard from Dev was she is a gold digger, if that would not have stemmed a desire to succeed in her, she is not heroine enough to be written stories about...
