MHST EPISODE DISCUSSION THREAD #1 - Page 16

Brilliant episode! There's so much I want to say but above all, the team did a fantastic job in presenting various situations without dragging and the ending scene was just beautiful. The three in their little world, they look so good together. Hats off to the team!

The way Arya fought for Janvi, Kian, and himself, the way he reminded her of the big picture, trying to get a grip on his fear of losing her, seeing that she's as much a mess as he is, but resolving to not let things crumble. Kian may be upset with him but still trusts him over Anushka. I loved the way Arya lovingly looked at Kian as he ran to be with Janvi, where be belongs, how he literally locked the three of them up in their own world, not allowing outside interference. Janvi's affection for her sister is going to be her weakness but he gave her Kian's qasm to stop her from going out. He will shield them from Anushka's clearly evil plans. The last scene of them all hugging and the framing of the beautifully decorated room was just spot on!

I also really loved how he pointed out for the first (and probably last time) that he never judged her or her character for being a single mother, even though he didn't know who Kian's father was and was ready to accept him as a son before the 'truth' came out. I don't think Janvi distrusts him but right now she's confused and worried about losing Kian. She knows her sister is selfish but also knows she can't really keep Kian away from her. What a mess! The gun scene was an interesting way for Arya to express his anger and frustration at the situation all in front of her, because who else would he be able to do this with? No one else in the family is even bothered to check in on him or even poor Kian for that matter. I'll exempt Dadaji of course, as he's the one who took the right decision and is heartbroken to think that his innocent great grandson was deprived of his father's and the Bundela love and privileges all these years. Everyone else is...

I am wondering if they'll show Kian being ok with Arya now that he's back in the room with him and Janvi, but I won't be surprised if Anuskha and some of the Bundelas try to turn him against Arya or Janvi in time.

I'm so mad at Ujwala right now. She doesn't seem to care for her brother. I know she's looking after Dadaji but I hope she'll go see Arya. Taiji and Raina of course didn't waste any time in trying to kick Janvi out. I'm beginning to wonder if Abhay was the blackmailer, since Kian is a competitor to Prince as a Bundela heir.

This show deserves much higher TRPs and a better slot. Karan and Ulka just nailed it, as did Nihan.

It was a really superb episode.

Dadaji even with his low health thinking about Kian. The only person in the whole family who really cared about the child.

Arya seeing Kian on the stairs sitting sad and alone. Good that he didn't try to explain anything to Kian's questions. He just let the child vent out his sadness. He handled it more maturely than what Brij does with Arya.

Taiji, Raina and Abhay are just sickos who care about nothing else but money and property.

Arya's fight to keep his family intact was the best in the episode.

The way he explains, apologises and seeks punishment from her, all show how much he was afraid of losing them. He was desperate to hold on to both of them.

I loved his apology, explaining himself that he's not a man of loose character. Arya getting Kian back from Anushka to their room Janvi. Arya shutting the door firmly was the best. He will protect his family.

Kian trusts Arya and that's why he went with him but Kian is just a child who can't understand the way the world is. So it's right now difficult for him understand why Arya wasn't in his life earlier. It'll take Janvi's slow approach for him to understand that and forgive Arya for that.

I'm glad that they didn't create unnecessary misunderstanding between the leads and gave them a maturity in their characters.

I loved the episode too! I am really glad the writers didn't drag this for another 10 episodes and they ended on a hopeful note for the trio and for us!

I agree we need to see more of Janvi but I'm wondering if this is deliberately done. We saw mainly her struggles and point of view for the first 60-70 episodes but now we need to see Arya's. I also think it shows her insecurities and as we discussed before, her inability to assert her rights. Taiji and Raina treat her like crap and she's now a bit shaken by the events, questioning her standing in Arya's life and with the Bundelas. She's been so long a mother where we see her fire and protectiveness for Kian but when it comes to Arya, it's as if she's still wondering if this is all true. I also think everything happened too fast for her since the Arya-Murli reveal, disturbing the status quo she's had or 5 years.

Btw, it's refreshing to see an ML who's not beating around the bush. His message to Taiji, Raina, and Anushka was loud and clear as well as to Janvi that she belonged with him in his/their home, in his/their room, and that he wasn't going to let her leave him. I see a man grasping at everything to prevent his dream from collapsing and to try and hold everything together when they are isolated from the family. Until Janvi can really think of Arya as her own and her equal, things will remain this way. Something will have to happen that makes her explode and express her feelings for him open, which she hasn't done so far. It might be Anushka's games that trigger her, since clearly she wants to take Janvi's place in the Bundela family. That will bring out her possessiveness but I also hope we don't get cringy 2 sisters fighting over Arya type of tracks.

Arya won't even look at Anushka twice and is clear that he doesn't want to see her around but is respecting Janvi's decision. As for the preview, I hope he won't become complacent thinking that they've achieved their happily ever after, because a lot more troubles are on the way. He needs to stay alert, because Janvi may not be able to see through her sister's plans. This time Abhay is also going to proactively cause trouble.

True. It'll probably take Janvi a while to assert her rights on him. She needs to have some development there. Until then it'll have to be Arya who takes the lead. Only when something major happens, Janvi will step up for Arya.

Yeah Arya needs to stay alert about Anushka's and I also hope that he doesn't forget that someone was blackmailing Janvi.

I have a feeling that it might be Nishant who had been blackmailing Janvi. The reasons being he could have easily heard from outside what she was talking, he needs no permission to be anywhere in the bundela house, he has a history of trying to steal jewellery for his gambling debts. He could have thought that he can get the haar through Janvi and no one would doubt him.

I too dislike ujjwala. It feels she likes to keep goody goody facade until she has the centerstage and likes to be mahan and bechari in front of everyone. But now she has Janvi to compete with in all those departments and she does not like it. On top of it there is another kid in the house that is not hers, so more spotlight away from her. And that is turning her this unsympathetic mean person.
she might still stay positive but it will take long until the truth comes out. Her husband will do everything to keep her in dark and against her own brother. And she is the kind of woman who trusts her husband more than her brother.
the rest all are expected to be mean. I am disappointed at Brij. He is proven to be a heartless father.

Same here. Ujwala will now definitely be more stiff towards Arya.

True, she's losing attention. Now even her brother has a kid and she still doesn't.

Already she's not happy with her brother about not telling them about Maushmi's love affair and of course she had a bad experience with the orphanage kid which was due to Janvi. So her favour will not be towards them.

Though she may not outwardly do anything that damages her reputation of being the softest character in the house, she'll definitely keep up her subtle gripe.

Brij is a useless father. He actually hasn't done any great parenting to be so mean to Arya.

Ironically, it will be the same Janvi and Arya she's currently ignoring who will support her when the truth comes out.

Me too, I expect Brij to melt a little, show some sympathy but he was even harsher than ever and sad some nasty (and untrue) things to Arya when he needed him most. I think this is what will propel Arya to take on a strong role as a protective father and husband, and he will have to keep fighting for his place for a while. Brij is one tough cookie. Thank goodness for Dadaji, and Brij's respect for him prevents him from doing further damage. I guess, Arya's not going back to Australia anymore. The one month for his passport issuing must have passed by now.

Also, why is Anushka in that mansion? Shouldn't she go back to live with Pushkar?

I didn't expect Brij to melt even little. He doesn't even deserve Arya's apology. What have you done for your son that you expect so much. It's not only money, there should be emotional and moral support too which Brij has failed to give his son.

I really can't understand what's his big expectation from Arya.

If your son had done a mistake, would you just pack him off somewhere and forget he exists.

Disgusting.

So why didn't he pack off Nishant anywhere. Reva could've easily suffocated and died inside the boot. Ok I get it that Nishant is not his own son, but still he's also the son of this family.

I don't hear anyone griping or pinpointing his mistakes as they do to Arya.

And how come taiji says only Arya brings shame to the family. I guess she feels proud of her son's deeds.

I wish Arya and Kian's bond as a father and son does give some insights to Brij on how to actually be a dad.

Pushkar doesn't want anything to do with both his sisters. He just protected his sorry self and went back home leaving his sisters to deal with it.

inlieu your comment forced me to watch today episodes and I'm glad I did cause it was a nice episode.

But half episode Mei especially scenes between Arya and janvi Mei I don't know why I keep on laughing even though it was a serious scenethat gun scene was too much like Bhai Kon rkta hai apne ghr Mei ak 47 type gun...pistol ya rifle toh dekha hai plus both leads were doing over the top acting which makes me laugh more and more

The best from the start till now is still that kid ...he really does a very great acting even with full expression I'm in awe with the kid aaj ka episode even though was nicely done but I feel that kid acting is overpowering both ml and FL acting. Both ml and FL are sometimes stiff or expressionless especially FL. They need to improve the acting.

But today episode was a must watch one after so many days of bakwas one

lol, I agree. They should have used a proper old times like gun rather than that ak47. It looked ridiculous and broke the immersion 😁
Ulka’s acting has always been my gripe. She looks aloof while KV tries too hard. They need to relax and find a comfort spot. Ulka needs to stop frowning and bunching her brow. It’s her one patent expression in every serious scene. KV has improved much more than his early days. I am loving him in this series.
Chemistry wise, as of now it’s all on kv’s shoulders. Ulka just is not emotionally present or willing.

Ps- that forehead kiss was a bit abrupt. KV did it as if Arya is supposed to take a lead and makers had to start somewhere with physical intimacy. Janvi looked surprised at the gesture. I hope they let it bloom organically and not have Arya get too impatient and janvi too impassive which will just kill the vibe.

We were saying earlier how the little world they built in that house was so beautiful and what made me fall in love the story and the trio. Even those light hearted moments like chasing a cockroach or fixing the blender and making a palak mess!

Right now I feel like the Bundela mansion is large and cold, everyone is physically and emotionally distant. Which is why it was brilliant to show Arya lock the bedroom door to create their own private space for the trio. I loved how the three of them fit together in the last scene as they hugged. Picture perfect!

We need some romance between the newlyweds now. Enough drama.

Yes that's what we need...I'm hoping brij can throw Arya from the bundela mansion and they can go back to that old small cozy home to give us some light hearted scenes of newly wed small familythe drama is already enough Anushka can live in bundela mansion I don't want her to follow Arya or kiaanshe can be brij guest

Haina I too felt that forehead kiss was a bit abrupt ...hoping that in future both leads could ease out and give more better shots that looks more natural cause after yesterday episode my hope are up

Loved the bedtime scene with Kian today and his innocent questions.

Ugh, I guess the TRP concerns are making them go OTT with Anushka. She's an out and out vamp and made her intentions clear right away. I wish they had kept her grey or kept us guessing.

Suyesh just happened to show up at the hospital but I'm still doubting him. As we predicted, once her head clears Janvi will start to look into the matter. The previous hospital being closed is a lame excuse and it's clear that Anushka was never in a coma. That doctor must have faked the DNA reports himself based on Anuskha's instructions. Maybe Suyesh still doesn't know that he's the father and Anuksha already knew that Kian was raised by Janvi, so rather than come see her sooner, she waited for the wedding day to create all that chaos. She pretended she didn't care who the father was and just wanted her son but clearly she planned all this ahead of time so as to put Janvi in a spot.

Precap - gross, I was dreading these kinds of cheap scenes, why do writers always do this? I want to see Aryvi romance, not Arya with Anushka. Also, why the heck did he have to open the bathroom door himself and why wasn't it locked? Plus grrr at her trying to copy Janvi's style of dressing. I'm pleasantly surprised at Janvi's simple post-wedding look. It suits her character and still makes her look lovely as a newlywed without OTT dressing.

Brij probably doesn't want to have anything to do with all this. I do hope he tries to get to know Kian because the kid is innocent and is his grandson after all. His apna khoon, which he cares so much about.
