~First glimpse of rivalry~ December 6th

Hi everyone, sorry this took so long.

Yesterday's episode was so much better than Saturday's, both in terms of content and execution. There were more thrills and not a dull moment.

Let's get started with the Rithik and Shivanya scenes. All of them were adorable, I know I say that a lot but seriously, these two are just so good together and I don't have many words left to describe how well they play off one another. The kaanta removal scene was the cutest, and the way rithik asked "tumhe gudgudi bhi hoti hai?" with the most charming smile and shivanya blushed in response. It is ok shivanya, if someone smiled at me like that then I would blush too. Next came the most laugh out loud scene of the episode, rithik clad in a towel only and shivanya in her slip. Oh the look of horror on shivanya's face and rithik just seemed amused by all this but made use of the situation to get her to address him as "tum" and not "aap." Their expressions in that scene were worth noting and Yamini ran upstairs fearing that one of them got hurt only to walk in on them in such an awkward moment. Shivanya was mortified but not Rithik, he was only disappointed that he did not get to see his wife in her state of undress. After the uncomfortable moment, both ran to Yamini to explain themselves as if they were a pair of children. Again, what a cute scene, shivanya wanted to run while rithik did not want to face his mom on his own.

Rithik's expressions during the kitchen scene were adorable, poor guy looked so annoyed. Although I wish that song was not there, because it was out of place. He looked so excited when he suggested shivanya and him go to the bedroom while decorating the pillar, as if a kid was finally about to get a candy but no such luck.

Now onto the most interesting part, Shesha and Shivanya conversation; I'm left wondering what did the raheja family do to her to warrant such hatred and a thirst for revenge? If it was 100 years ago then clearly it wasn't them but the ancestors, which makes her basis of revenge very shaky. People who have wronged her is not even alive anymore, and clearly she hates everyone not only rithik. Is the 100 year tapasya right, or did the creative screw up with the timeline? Anyways, the spark of animosity was visible between shesha and shivanya due to the difference of opinions.there was a flicker of emotion on her face when sesha mentioned her "nakli pati" love or not, shivanya has developed a soft corner for rithik.

I'm beginning to doubt Yamini's involvement in the murders, she is such a doting mother to rithik and an even nicer mother-in-law to shivanya. Maybe the true villain is actually Ankush and not her? After watching the episode, something else is nagging me; does yamini even about the murders ankush and friends committed? I know this is an odd question but what if anky and her are on a different page? While Yamini is freaking out about rithik's kundali dosh, ankush is scared about consequences of killing shivanya's parents? I could be wrong but this thought came to me after I noticed that every time anky talks about the 20 year old secret, Yamini is never there. There is another raaz he talks about, but that is associated with the haveli and the rithik lookalike. I have bad memory so you guys tell me, has yamini ever said anything that referred to the murders of shivanya's parents?

This suri is such a clown and now we know why he is on his third wife, probably cheated on the previous two. I don't think he will die as makers did not bring mazher syed for two episodes only. Surely there is a much sinister face behind the clownish mask. He may prove to be shivanya's biggest challenge in the future. Someone's eyes were shown in the flashback, who could it be? Yamini or someone we know. I don't think it was shesha because then suri would recognize her. Anyone have any idea? One thing though, shailesh was dressed like a servent. I think all of them were servants in that haveli, and then they hatched this murder plot so they can steal the naagmani and become rich. Then all of them, or maybe only ankush went onto kill the real owners of the haveli. I still doubt whether ankush actually killed the owners or did they die in some other way, then he and yamini took rithik with them?

Shesha's fight with that hawk was the show stopper, even with the shabby VFX it was good. Adaa is nailing it as shesha. Poor suri looked petrified; I bet he will never look at another girl after this horrific encounter. That last part, where she is taunting him was so well acted and the snake skin and glowing eyes just enhanced it even more. Great end to an awesome episode.

Shivanya's next target is suri, only hope that she does not come in front of him because I know he won't actually die.

Also, when do you think Shivanya will be exposed in front of rithik and family?

The episode was good. At least some action

Loved Sesha's ferociousness . They are making Shivanya into a meek person and I am not liking that

Shesha's wrong doers may not be ancestors but may have some connection to past life of one family member . Don't they say that Nagins take their revenge even in next life

we came face to face was the difference in value system of Shesha and Shivanya today , now it's clear Shesha has an ulterior motive and that motive wants even Ritik dead

I loved the way Sesha killed the hawk but I wish they show Shivanya doing powerful things too

As for your last question I think Shivanya will successfully kill Suri and Mathur but will be revealed when she attempts to kill Ankush and the fifth person

And I also think fifth person is Yamini

it's time they at least reveal a part of her history. most likely, rithik's lookalike killed her lover but still not sure. i think both are doing a good job, it is just adaa's portrayal is more sadistic thanks to the character.

it could be any of the above. Writers have set up a really interesting mystery, I only hope they know how to execute it. there is also a mystery associated with rithik's past, which seems to completely seperate from shivanya's story. there isn't a lot of time, and hopefully makers won't make a complete khichdi out of the plot. they need to start unraveling sesha's past because I'm sure shivanya only knows a part of it. Even when they talk, sesha only talks about shivanya's parents-not herself.

in a SBS segment adaa said, she found the 4th person who killed their family. did she worded it wrong or are shivanya and shesha related somehow. maybe but I'm confused because shesha did 100 year tapasya to become a icchadhari nagin. not sure what is going on, but I hope writers have a plan in mind.

I'm actually surprised with how focused she is. it is just that with rithik, a different side comes out. since a young she has been burdened by the weight of revenge, it is sad that she never had a normal life. with rithik, the normal side comes out. although, I want her to exposed in front of the family. kind of like "ripping the band aid off" as these days, I feel bad watching their cute scenes because of the impending doom.

yeah I like it too. she will start developing a soft corner for the family as she stays there and that is not wrong, it's inhumane to kill people for no fault of theirs but I don't necessarily dislike shesha for her way thinking.
