Leela,

Your write up on episode and on Rishbala was much more enjoyable than the episode itself. 😊

After reading everyone's comments and episode takes, now I feel like watching the episode again in the evening, remembering just what you wrote and not applying my mind at all. 😳

@drinking

Well...forgetting the fact that RK ...being medicated and not being able to sit so upright right after discharge from the hospital...if I see the drinking NEAT scene...well thing is alcohol benumbs the mind by dissipating the concentrated thoughts about what we are thinking and agitated people and used to addiction, will naturally reach out to alcohol, so this trait, I do like it, though as Bhakti pointed out, he is quick on stopping as well when he sees Madhu around him. That fear and his reflex to stop when Madhu is there is nice touch. I like it. The guy used to drink so much...its admirable that he can live without drink when his wife is around him.

And more than benumbing his mind from agitation, I guess even the slightest emotional distance from loved ones and now especially Madhu makes him an Insomniac. Right ? Couldn't that be reason, he keeps on getting up even on a hospital bed or at home. The guy rarely has heart-filled slumber...just that now his loose slumber has pleasant and secure feeling that someone is sharing space around him in that night. God!!! what kind of crazy kid he might have been to distance his mother that stubbornly when young and how much the mother relapsed into personal guilt that instead of slapping her son out of his obstinacy, fanned the growing distance between the two. Sleeplessness...most dangerous bimaari of all ills 😆

@Shri - I did not know this! Thank you for explaining! I do not know much about the legal system in general (but do know that no trial makes it to court next day in India - not in this yug!😆)

Please tell me - what do they do if the accused cannot speak? (Perhaps they are gunga, e.g.) Is there some provision for this?

But I am sure Padmini will find her voice as she found the strength to protect her child at the last.

Nice insights into drinking and sleeplessness Shri. 😉
@bold: That is so right. I was fighting with insomnia at some point. I had these bouts where I used to keep waking up in the middle of the night , feeling so irritated. 😕. But of course, I did not have the liberty to befriend a bottle of Vodka or Whisky. 😆 😆

An excellent ep.😃

Madhu's anguish at RK's distancing himself from her, and his guiltridden silence.

But Madhu has come a long way from the time when she had asked the inspector why RK couldn't bring himself to apologize for the hit-and-run.😊

She knows now that even with guilt, he can't say a 'sorry'. Self-flagellation and destroying himself bit by bit is easier.

And it has been a long time now that she has had no need to know when he is doing his self-destructive tormented version of 'sorry'.😊

Her focussed attention, her gaze sharpening, when Trishna started to shift the blame onto RK, and her leading statements to RK in the mode of "It's your fault" to get him to admit outright what she had realized was the problem.😳

This was the third time RK had turned again to drink after letting that habit go.😭

And this time - with her mother just as much in need of her support as before - Madhu didn't dither for even a moment before racing back to her husband instead.😕😊

When she emotionally gets to the reflexive level, she can't think of anything besides RK, especially not if he's hurting.😳

Shamsher's, Madhu's and Bittuji's disgust of Trishna was palpable. She is beyond brazen.

RK brought Balraj back into their lives?😕 Really?

*Trishna* saw Balraj and recognized him, and *she* made a choice to not inform her family or reject the psychopath's offer. RK was never part of that.

And did RK tell her to go to so much effort to conceal her murderous biological father's return?

How the heck was Trishna *not* solely and entirely at fault for endangering her family? And for what? Her ambition? Madhu, Padmini and Shamsher - all their lives mattered less than Trishna's aspirations.

Madhu almost died. And first RK almost killed Balraj, and then Padmini did kill Balraj. Her sister's blood almost spilled, and her mother with blood on her hands - all thanks to Trishna.

The court situation's high point was actually not within the ep itself but in the precap. The lawyer's plot-clunky statements were designed to rev Madhu up to stand and let loose in her mother's defense as shown in the latest MEIEJ promo.😊

Yeah?! I understand that feeling...the irritation. Bad !!! My sister and husband also are insomniacs. They can't sleep. Another reason why they play online games. 😆

Zoe,

The forum took to blame game like Trishna yesterday and were saying both Trishna and RK were at fault. And I was saying there was nothing to be judgemental there and that they are just bringing in character contrast between RK and Trishna in yesterday's ED Thread.

Thank you, MahaGuru 🤗!! I missed reading your posts very much, glad to be back.

@Character contrast, I totally agree with you. Today, Trishna did not express any form of remorse; she actually tried to justify her actions and flatly blamed RK (the very person who tried to help her sorry acting career). One could always point out the fact that, if Trishna didn't suck at acting, RK wouldn't be helping her career. To be honest, I expected such a behavior from her; hence, I wasn't surprised. However, it bothers me greatly that she never gets any punishment. Today, Malik finally yelled at her a little, in my opinion she got off way too easy.

• Madhu - Pati became more important than Maa, when she has hardly time left to prepare Mom for her appearance in court. Madhu, maana you are a Drama Queen and will rescue your mother, lekin thodi insaaniyat dikha deti...you should have atleast gone to mom and yet again tried to make her talk. Doesn't it mean something...The Indian Police as it is do not treat victims for shock, as in no shock absorption words said...as a family and daughter, shouldn't you have tried and said..."Mom because of you I am alive...Please talk to me, talk to us" Sigh !!! May be Radhaji's "Dipali ne sab kuch tayyaar kiya hai" sent her shivers and she decided to go and check on her and RK at the first pretext she has 🤣

ETA:

My curiosity still remains.

How did Trishna know that RK was promoting her ?
