I for one liked the episode since I watched it with an open mind and no expectation whatsover. I really like the idea of just watching the episode aired for the day and not worry too much about the future tracks. I think it was @Shri who suggested that and I kind of decided to stick with it starting today. If the CVs could take a huge risk and convince us with this revenge track then I am pretty sure they would do something equally unpredictable to bring RK and Madhu closer.
I loved Madhu's determination throughout the episode and it was RK who was taken back by her sheer will and determination. His ego was hit badly today not when she slapped him but when she told him that his high pitched voice does not scare her any more and boldly challenged him by throwing her dupatta in the floor and asking him to do as he wishes. She basically called him a coward for putting up a facade and trying to intimidate everyone by his arrogance, domineering attitude and most of all yelling and screaming at people to get them to be submissive. She looked him in the eye and indirectly told him that she knows him well and what he is doing is not going to make her back down one bit. Clearly, RK was not prepared for this counteraction from her and hence pushed her out and locked himself in. I say it was definitely a victory for Madhu where RK was left speechless and we could see his restlessness in the mansion trying to drink his way through to forget the insult and loss. RK seems to be breaking one thing after the other in anger and at this rate he is not even going to have a chair to sit in his room. I feel bad for Bittuji who is clearly stuck between these two and is a genuine well wisher for the both of them. At some point, he is going to have to choose sides and he will definitely side with Madhu since she is the sane one in this relationship, atleast to the most part.
On a different note, since when Trishna became so matured and is willing put her life on line for Madhu. Is she changed for good or is she happy that Madhu is not happy and hence happy to help her. She sounds genuine but it's just too good to be true. It is all so sudden that she went from hating Madhu to completely supportive of her. I hope that she does not pull another RK. Just thinking out loud here.
Apparently, RK has no tricks left up his sleeve and is using Dips to get back at Madhu. I was upset over the article that said the same but I don't care anymore because RK could bring any number of Dips and clearly Madhu is going to emerge victorious because she knows his antics as she has lived with him long enough. If he is that smart to fake love for revenge, then she is equally smart to understand what he is trying to do by bringing Dips into the movie sets. RK wants Madhu to feel jealous but why would she feel anything when she clearly said that she has nothing but hatred for him. Even if she did, she is not going to exhibit that in front of him or to anybody for that matter.
Dips was all dressed up and looking posh in her western outfit and I have to say that Seema Mishra looked pretty good in that outfit. She did say in one of her interviews that she loves to pick out her own outfits for the shows and shop for them both locally and in foreign countries if given a chance and an opportunity to travel. Despite her posh, sophisticated looks she has to beg for information since no one was sharing anything with her. She is pathetic when she was begging RK and even worse when begging Madhu for gossip. Dips/Madhu conversation was a bit stretched and it started to get boring after a while.
Precap actually made me pity RK and Dips since they both were trying to get some kind of reaction from Madhu who clearly was shrugging her shoulders and ignoring them to the most part. I was proud of Madhu today considering that she did not let the last night's fiasco with RK overwhelm her thoughts and/or actions. I say keep up the good work Madhu.
