So, three important things in this episode.
Firstly, after ages, the CVs remembered RK's painting etc.
Secondly, the new character played by Vaishnavi Dhanraj was introduced in outdoor shoot.
The actress is very competent, and has done varied images even within the same roles.
Hope there is no 'triangle' irritation tried for this time.
And thirdly and most crucially for the story to continue without any distracting uniting point to keep the couple unconflicted, the miscarriage happened so that there is no inconvenient pregnancy to prevent either the couple conflicting or Madhu now potentially doing other films for whatever manufactured reason they decide to claim.
Amazing that RK getting paralyzed never had a scene of any doctor advising his spouse and kin that he would be shattered.
But then the point of that paralysis had not been to get sympathy for *him*. Having his feelings about the situation mentioned more by any other characters would have reduced the already nonexistent mass-audience viewership-increase for him agreeing to let his role be terminated with the paralysis as the convenient excuse.
Only when sympathy is intended to be induced in audience for the particular ailing character, doctors are carefully dialogued with the need for the spouse/kin to be concerned about the specific person.
In fact, doctors will even be shown dropping by at home so that they may give that advice.
It was not convenient and thence was avoided for the paralysis, but has been evoked for the miscarriage that was actually removing a hindrance from the track.
And if nothing else, this track's paralysis and miscarriage points look set to showcase exactly what encouragingly effective support a loving spouse gives to their shattered spouse going through a traumatizing situation by effectively leaving that person to handle the emotional brunt while themselves getting distracted by concerns other than the spouse's emotional wellbeing. Kudos to the CVs on both situations for a couple that - prior to convenient characterization-butchering - would never have acted as they repeatedly have to ensure every highpoint of this clunky path.
Wonder if they'll succeed with the sympathy-gambit this time, or a prompt career haste for some manufactured reason in keeping with the rest of the clunk will erase the sympathy inducement lure for mass-audience. On the downside, they are having to go at jetspeed and hit every catalytic point quickly rather than take several extra days for each point - though all the points have so far failed to get the hoped-for sympathy-viewership-increase. On the upside, the depressions are shovelled hard and fast on each other's heels, reducing the number of episodes in between before the next depression-point.
This miscarriage has no point except a sympathy-gambit, convenient and wrapped.
Fortunately, they didn't say the other variety of cliche "woh abh kabhi maa nahi ban sakti".
Hopefully the CVs will avoid writing another pregnancy until they intend it to remain unterminated by some story-required predictable miscarriage.
Damn hard to feel anything for all these tragedies which very clearly remove obstacles from the career path since the writers apparently decided not to go to the trouble of writing the same result via a more finessed chain of events.
