Brilliant Episode!
RK-Malik's confrontation was epic. Hats off to both the artists.
I don't know who will find Malik's actions/reasons justified… but if there is one person who will surely defend Malik, it will be RK! RK understood anxiety and impatience of a father to rescue his child from the depths of hell as Malik sees it. To know a man who can go to such extends for a child who is not even biologically related must have replenished some faith in humanity for RK. As weird as it sounds today Malik earned himself immense respect from RK. My heart went out to both the men… one a helpless father, when he wonders how this monster managed to make space in his daughter's heart and the other a man who knows he doesn't deserve the goodness of his wife. Though the confrontation began with gimmicks of the RK, the super star… somewhere down the line he was humbled because infront of him stood a man who cared two hoots for his stardom and the power that came along. A father bared his heart out to RK… will RK be able to do that when required? He better! After all that RK has done to Madhu primarily and her family, he owes them an unconditional apology to begin with if he wants Madhu in his life for good. Will he be humble enough to ask a father hand of his daughter… a daughter he has wronged? I hope so. He already has won Madhu over… it is easy to say he doesn't need anyone approval. But I wish RK is large hearted than that.
One scene that truly defined the confrontation was Madhu interrupting it. It was so obvious that she matter the world to both the men. Malik's secret is safe with RK… I always thought he will hide if for Madhu, which he will… but he will also hide it for a father he finds justified. But then what will Malik do after going home? Drop the plan of killing RK or earn money to free his daughter or plan the next attack? And what is RK going to do? I feel he will look to set Madhu free.What really needs to be seen is will he allow himself to get selfish? Or will he let Madhu go even after knowing he has become an integral part of her life as much as she in his? Or will he start making amends which is a tough task for the love of his life?
A spl mention for the RK-Madhu scene… I just went awww.
