okay, after fully watching the episode...I'm changing some of my opinions and adding to some of my opinions.
1)I don't consider either Dhara or Rishita/Raavi in the wrong for that beginning scene with the chunar. and here is my reason because Dhara was right in just trying to make sure they have everything in order, she's been doing this the longest, these rasams and all and therefore just wanted to make sure everything would go good. But Raavi/Rishita was also in the right that they are not kids. and Dhara is going to have to learn that. she needs to start treating them as equals rather than as kids, they need to learn to grow for themselves.
2) the sandwich scene- while I still think that Dhara should have just spoken to Rishita in private. I understand she didn't say that to make Rishita feel bad. she was just stating a fact, like a teaching moment. you could clearly tell she had no ill intent to it. The fact that Raavi stood up for Rishita helps her because then it at least takes away a little of that incompetence feeling she had when Dhara mentioned the vegetables.
3) This is where I am completely changing my opinion and saying that Raavi just wanted to annoy Shiva and Dhara came into the crossfire because it was a full-proof way to make him angry. I don't think she meant any actual insult to Dhara. I think she was just happy that she was annoying Shiva. ( I still don't like that she brought Rishita into that mix though)
4) Shiva is definitely sensitive towards Raavi and suicide.
5) the antakshari scene was actually really cute, I was dreading it from the discussions..
6) My Dev points is probably the one I stand by. I don't care how much good he does, without an apology, it's useless. He clearly does not understand this situation that he ended up putting his ENTIRE family through, especially Shiva. Not once, did this man apologize. Trust me, I OF ALL people know that an apology does NOT fix everything, but he didn't even attempt! why is Shiva the only one they reprimanding !!!!!!!!
7) I don't like how GauRa handled that situation, another opinion that I'm going to be sticking to, the threatening of hitting them was just ridiculous. Gaumbhi made sense when he talked to Dev about Shiva losing everything Dev got everything he wanted, Dhara on the other hand, sorry, I love you but just because a person is older than you does not mean they automatically deserve respect. IT'S EARNED, NOT GIVEN. that hug was for show, doesn't fix anything. there is no proper communication. They are literally just doing things to please GauRa and that's not it. I think they might have even solved more of their hostility if they had just started fist fighting.
8) Raavi is...in her childish mindset. She keeps expecting things to go the same way when they were kids. Krish is right...she is crazy.
9) Krish didn't get his dose of love these past few episodes, so he got a lot in this one😆
10) that Yaadon ki baraat scene was okay. The actors did a good job, but yes it was weird to just flip right into that after that arguing scene that did not solve anything.
11) That ShiVi hug scene was awkward at its best. like it would have been cute if it hadn't been forced.
precap: sigh again with the manhandling but at least some things happening.
...That felt like a long episode...the gifs will come when tomorrow.
