Am a bit busy hence, didn't get to post my thoughts on the last episode - will probably keep it short today, as well 😳 Enjoyed both episodes- some pointers for the last one: Farhad and Mahi need to work on their communication skills, lol. She doesn't really tell him anything hence, he doesn't fully understand her complex situation. But this way, they might end up resenting each other a little. As for Rameen-Punar, the scene in their house was lovely! Especially how determined Rameen is; she isn't denying that she has some feelings but she's determined not to let herself love him as long as the hatred inside of him outweighs everything else (though, that hatred is imported, lol).
So, today one of the truths eventually broke out. I can totally understand Rameen's reaction (especially after that painful conversation with Punar) - who wouldn't freak out after getting to know that a murderer is living in your home? And not just any murderer, but the man who murdered the father of your best friend and the guy you're quasi-in-love with? But poor Bali. You could see it in his eyes how Rameen's reaction and her words really broke him - more than he already was. Accepting to go to Dubai, at first... and that scene at Zohra's grave was just heart-breakingly beautiful 🥺 He wanted to live the rest of his life with his children, was even ready to compromise by living as their "uncle" but now that these same children are telling him to leave... what is there for him to live for? Though, I was glad he decided against going to Dubai and facing the Mehars head-on: that's what Bali does. He doesn't run away and he is capable of taking responsibility (even if he already has done that).
Rameen and Farhad confronting Jajji - kind of sweet, in a sad way, how Jajji was afraid they'd see him without his lenses but the moment Farhad talked disrespectfully about Bali, he just came out to give them a piece of his mind, lol. And I really enjoyed that scene! Jajji defending Bali, emphasizing the whole, "mera dhost" and finally, someone pointing out that Hukum wasn't exactly a dhood ka dulha hua, either! Of course, it might not justify having him killed the way he was killed; but as Jajji pointed out, unlike Hukum who killed many people but never faced the consequences for it, Bali killed one Hukum and served his punishment for it. And Farhad and Rameen were taken aback by the fact that Hukum was a murderer himself, lol. But alas, the damned question about his eyes couldn't have been ignored 😛
So, after seeing how Ansa Mehar Unnissa treated Mahi and told her to leave the room because this night, she would also hate her - yeah, she might be capable of killing her own daughter Farhad being Jajji's son was a bitter pill but finding out he is actually Bali's son? Mehro will take that as a war declaration. On that note, Mehar Chirag is a smart one, isn't he? Pointing out how the kids are actually Bali's in the precap; I assume that Rameen and Farhad will come to that conclusion after hearing who Jajji is, as well.
And I got to see one of the scenes from the OST I had been waiting for! 😆 Although, I assumed this one would happen after the biggest revelation but I am fine with how it played out- it was great! Bali declaring that he won't run away and will face Punar, and Punar coming in that exact moment and demanding for Bali to present himself. I love how Bali kept calling him "handome" and teaches him manners while telling him to kill him 🤣 They could develop quite an enjoyable bond once they move past this hatred hurdle! 😆 Coming to the crucial point: I doubt anyone even considered that Punar could go ahead with this (unlike his witch of a mother, lol) 😛 Rameen's words echoing through his head (and I think there were more factors to this like Mahi trying to get through to him for ages and Rameen's words just hitting a nerve inside of him) were a nice touch. But of course, Mamu Munir wouldn't be Mamu Munir if he wasn't a kameena - but I liked how Punar reacted the moment Mamu Munir shot- the deal was for Punar to serve the killing strike and no one else.
Bali smiling while bleeding out 😭
Precap: Can't wait! 😲 An even more emotional episode ahead!
Of course, Mehro wouldn't be Mehro if she couldn't taunt Punar for "failing" - aka being human. Like, c'mon, woman - why the hell are you never happy? Though, today they showed that Punar can be firm with his mother as well, if he has to be (for Mahi, indirectly, here) - hope to see more of that. And as Mehar Chirag said, you cannot compare Hukum to Punar, and parents shouldn't raise their kids to be like them, either.
And Jajji and the kids in the hospital. Seems like he didn't tell them at home who he was, but he is not denying anymore that he is Jajji. I am curious to see whether Jajji will react to the Mehars because of this incident or not (he put the guns away and tried to leave this life behind him, but in the OST, at the very end, we see him walking through the gallis, guns in hands and his goons with him, lol- curious to see what will prompt that). And Rameen's relief upon hearing that Punar didn't stab Bali 😆
Great episode! ❤️
