The devil has a name- EPI 18

"Hell is empty and all the devils are here"

Thankfully, Writers did not drag the painfully awkward "honeymoon" any further and both cleared some things out. Shivanya, in her blind thirst for revenge, is unable to see that she is being ruthless towards rithik and his genuine feelings. Her world is desolate, filled with hatred and anger, so it is understandable that she does not recognize concepts like love, trust and honesty but she is slowly getting there. Shivanya's reaction to Rithik's advances was harsh, but it is her fault because she gave him the wrong idea by mentioning honeymoon. Arjun portrayed the hurt and awkwardness perfectly, I was heartbroken for Rithik. I'm glad that shivanya's conscious is slowly awakening, and she ran after him to apologize. There is a lot of respect for rithik in her heart, but she is not in love with him yet, she is too focused on revenge but she will fall for him, only it will be a gradual process. Rithik trying to make dinner for his wife was the cutest, great dialogues and both were very natural. I love scenes like this, where shivanya is so carefree and genuine-she even teased him a little!

The naag mani story was interesting, so according to the story...rithik's father, the king was the caretaker along with shivanya's parents but ankush and co. locked the king in the devdi and killed shivanya's parents. If that is how it will pan out then, I must applaud the writers for coming up with a very intricate and gripping twist. The taweez and the eyes says this is the lookalike from the portrait but most likely not a lookalike anymore because 20 years have passed. Only thing that does not fit is Sesha's connection because she did tapasya for 100 years to become icchadhari naagin and rithik's past goes back 20 years. That man in the portrait could be Rithik from a previous life but since anky and yamini want to keep it hidden, it may be his real father AKA the man in the room.

Ankush and Shailesh are monsters. They Murdered two individuals in cold blood, and kept a man shackled in a dark room for 20 years. Only devils are capable of such atrocity, and the most disgusting part is that they did all this for wealth. For 20 years, they have built their empire on someone else's blood and tears. Only thing is, anything stolen or snatched does not last forever. Their kingdom will come crashing down one day, and when the day of retribution arrives, I hope shivanya makes them suffer. Anything she does will be nothing compared to what anky and co. have done.

I did not watch Gurumaa's scenes, the heavy dialogues and lengthy scenes are too much. But I did feel bad for shesha, she is too restless, too impatient, and too impulsive. Her biggest flaw is her inability to strategize; she always goes in with guns blazing. shivanya and her can easily take out gurumaa if they lay out a well planned strategy TOGETHER but shesha clearly thinks otherwise

This week was fully dedicated to the devdi raaz, as next week will be a set up to the entry of the nevla. I don't like the sound of it but rajat tokas is a great actor, so it will be nice to see him. Only that I wished it would be someone who will be an ally to the naagins, not an enemy.

That is it for now, thanks for reading.

The man in the devdi is clearly Ritik's father in my opinion. but what I can't understand is why is Ritik getting those dreams or how is sesha connected to the raja. Now this makes me question does sesha have any ulterior motive? Or its just her impulsive nature and anger making us wonder if she has some connection with the man in the portrait.

Still a lot of unanswered questions but am liking the way the story is moving forward

Good post.

To me the guru maa was an overdose, not just this Epi but always. Too many lengthy and repetitive dialogues and screen shots. I think guru Dev will be pitted against guru Maa now? Or should it only be Shivanya the savior always???

Yes Sesha is always dashing with a blazing gun, she lacks strategy. This is where the guru Dev needs to be useful. His role is under utilized.

Devdi, honestly I was wondering how these two idiots did not think that the message of their arrival here could go back home. And the way Shivanya asked for the key - now did the caretaker day that to Anki, then there is more room to suspect Shivanya.

Mali kaka - is he the one who was held captive? I get so a doubt.

Potrait - It has to be two generations before Rithik in my view.

So will Rithik and Shivanya team up?? That would be interesting.

And can someone clarify on the kada that she picked up in the Devdi - where did she see it- am not clear.

@bold she finds the kada in the room inside the devdi..and she connects that kada to Ritik's Maharaja portrait coz she saw the same thng worn by Ritik's lookalike in that picture focusing on his ankle.

@kaana Shivanya picked up an anklet same as the man in the portrait was wearing

wondrful post dear
