Chotu Shiva teasing Maami and taking badla is always hilarious.. those scenes are always on my repeat watch list 😆

Thank you so much 🤗The pre-leap scenes were hilarious when child Shiva wanted to take revenge from every second. 😆
This might look like super comical, but I couldn’t help but feel sad for a child to have such feelings. Childhood is for nourishment, enjoyment and having fun. He was just harbouring grudges against an adult.

I loved how you articulated Shiva’s childish tendencies! His selfless nature and his deep desire to shoulder the burden of his family right from the beginning really did force him to grow up early, which is why some of his actions even today are like a man-child.. 💔 We saw this same desire in him when he told Gaumbi he wanted to sell trucks to help take care of the family

I’m eager to know if the makers will ever give us clarity on what Shiva truly thought about Raavi right from his childhood

At this juncture, I am doubtful about the makers capability to handle such sensitive issues. I can only hope that they utilise the tremendous potential they have in hand.

"Hare Dev" waali Raavi has slowly but surely turned into "Hare Shiva" waali Raavi now.. #VillainGetsTheHeroine 😎

🤣She just chants “Shiva Ruk” all the time now 🤣

Great post as usual..👏 thank you for the tag! Can’t wait for the next!

Thank you For your kind words of appreciation. Both of them are so fascinating that I can keep writing about them forever.🤗

Thank you so much ❤️

Felt like watching the episode all over again.when I started the show post leap I was looking forward to their marriage. Now I want to see more of their pre wedding subtle scenes. I soo wish the makers give us some flashback scenes of the kid pandya brothers and raavi.❤️ Maybe shiva can be seen thinking about them when he realises his love.or maybe raavi can be seen thinking about them .Kuch to dikhana Chahiye ❤️

I rwant more flashbacks. They have so much potential, and I wish, as per the BTS, Raavi is seen wearing her pre-wedding attire. I hope we get more interesting flashbacks 😆

The villian gets the heroine 😍

They have such a unique story.shiva actually doesn't like to see her cry.the grumpy apology 🤣🤣

This is Ek Villain ki love-story, Shiva doesn't like her crying, and that whole Haq scene, with its intensity, is next level ❤️

Thank you so much for your kind words of appreciation 🤗

Thank you for the tag❤️.

Another beautiful analysis ❤️.

Chotu shiva and BADA shiva have such similar expressions.😍

Loved how they have kept the characteristic features intact.

Raavi is as usual the innocent and pure hearted soul.loved the kangan parallel 😍.it is Indeed her who brought the Kangans back for shiva.

Dev raavi had such a pure bond.no doubt she fell for him.i wonder how can the softie Dev do such a thing as leave raavi in the altar, but I guess sometimes in life we do mess up.the best of people make mistakes.

Shiva is always triggered by her Dev jaap.he is soo mean to her, but doesn't let anyone hurt her.the irony!

Acha Hota if maami would have slapped you.

This reminded me of the scene where he says to maami Accha hota Mai usse girne se Nahi bachata aur uski haddiya tutti.

Mai tujhe Inn junglee bhediyo ke Saath chodke bhaag jaunga.

So typical shiva! He will say all sorts of mean things but won't let any harm touch her.maybe that's why she was soo hurt by the kidnapping fiasco.how can he leave her in danger?

No wonder she gravitates towards him at the slightest possible hint of any danger coming her way.she has developed that subconsciously.

Jhallaa🤣🤣

The look he gave Dev and defended himself 😍

These analysis and scenes make me crave for more if their childhood flashbacks.❤️❤️

Thank you for your review 🤗

You’ve genuinely covered all the points so beautifully ❤️

Today she proved it🤣

But she is his jhalli.

She has proved that a looong time back!

Thank you T. It was again a very beautiful take.

Thank you so much 🤗

She is indeed a tube light.😆

What a wonderful recap+ connections+ kisse & hisse... the Bachpan se shuruat has added a special dynamic to their story.

Love how they have continued the attitude from HArminder to kanwar. Perfect fit.

I would love to see Bada Shiva on chhakdo with Red bandhani kurta! Just like Chhotu Shiva's introductory scene.

Thank you so much for your appreciation. I totally agree with you on the the fact that Harminder’s transition to Kanwar was perfectly fit!! 🤗

Post 3: I have seen this scene numerous times 😆 And yes there is definitely a parallel to the birthday scene. Chota Shiva’s reaction to Choti Raavi’s “Jhalla” is epic 🤣

Lovely Analysis as usual 🤗❤️

Thank you so much for such lovely words of Appreciation.🤗 I’m glad that you could discover the parallel between the birthday scene and their childhood dynamics. Shiva’s reaction to Jhalla shall always remain my favourite😆

Aww the bond between Dev and Raavi was so so precious! I love the similarities to the birthday scene!! We need these kids back ASAP! And some more parallels on screen!

He touches her ears and awww, this is such a sensitive scene from Dev. I can't believe how he could leave Raavi at the altar, but I don't complain.

I think growing up somewhere a distance crept in from Dev’s side. As a child, he probably didn’t realize at all that Raavi liked him. From his side, it was all friendship and warmth. She was like a sister. And he enjoyed spending time with her. Dev is a softie who can’t see anyone is pain. So how did he end up ignoring Raavi’s feelings entirely? Why not politely tell her that he’s not interested?

What I am guessing is that Dev had no reason to believe her feelings were strong. Or even truly existed in the first place. Nothing ever happened to indicate that her feelings for him were any different from us having crushes on actors. Most of us won’t act on those feelings. They are just for fun! Sometimes it can become irritating for the other party.

After a point, Dev shut her out. Maybe her gestures became too excessive and somewhere made him feel like he was losing his friend Raavi. It’s cute as kids but stepping into teenage years and adulthood, it becomes a bit embarrassing.

A personal story- I had a huge crush on this boy since first grade. Liked him throughout middle school as well. In the early years, I believed myself to be in love with him (even wrote him a letter). I embarrassed him quite a bit in front of his friends! I feel guilty sometimes when I think back! But then I was a kid! He was a thorough gentlemen. My friends used to mess with him but he never said anything back. Instead, he distanced himself away and remained polite. But now I can tell how annoying it must have been for him. In HS, we met at a party and had such a normal conversation. It was awkward at first but he never made me feel guilty! It almost felt like we were friends again! Made me wish I stayed on the friendship track from day one! Long story short, we aren’t BFF’s but he’s someone I admire for being so patient and kind. I can’t even begin to imagine how I would feel going through all that. At one point, I do feel he tuned out my feelings and just couldn’t get himself to care. And I don’t blame him! He has dated many girls during that time and I’m sure they gave him hell over what I did. Perhaps the most embarrassing part of my growing years. Another reason why I loved the Dev & Raavi scene I guess 😆

Coming back to PS, Dev being Dev did not confront her over it but I’m guessing he started distancing himself. They went to different colleges and made other friends. But she was still Raavi, his childhood friend. The recent scene is proof these if Raavi still wants to be his friend, they can build a warm and friendly bond.

Nothing excuses Dec leaving Raavi at the alter and also having no remorse afterwards. Even if she wasn’t his friend, it’s still so messed up to ditch someone at the alter. It’s embarrassing and hurtful. That part will have to be forgotten to move forward.

But looking at this from Dev’s POV, he never understood the Raavi who loved him. Didn’t know her at all. It almost felt like a ongoing joke that became tiring and boring after a while. Raavi was much more OTT than I was so Dev probably stayed out of her path for a while. And over time, lost the connect. Even after Shiva told him to stop leading her on, he paid no heed. The distance disconnected him to her feelings in a messed up way. By the time their wedding was discussed, he had no idea how awful the situation could become.

I think this is where the flashbacks will come into play as well. Those scenes will give us insight as to why Dev disregarded Raavi’s feelings entirely despite being a kind individual. A huge part of why we can’t connect to him is because we simply cannot understand why he didn’t stop this in the first place! Why did he create such a mess? The past has to be revisited for us to appreciate Dev-Raavi’s friendship in the future.

Growing up, Raavi probably spent most of her time with Shiva (talking mostly about her plans with Dev... plans that never materialized beyond having ice cream and a few bike rides home). This is why Shiva is so aware of her feelings. He has lived through her journey of loving Dev. Forgetting that, would be letting go of his childhood (similar to Raavi). It’s pretty heartbreaking actually 🥺

Dev and her probably met in passing. Or at family events. Maybe he was just plain annoyed and a part of him couldn’t care anymore? He is human after all. Lots of possibilities! None of which excuse his actions but can give us food for thought.

I would love to see scenes of younger Raavi with both brothers and for there to be a contrast. This track has the potential to help us understand all three better! I need to watch more interactions of Dev-Raavi to understand if my theory above even makes sense! How often did the two interact? How did Dev’s behavior and body language change over the years? How did Shiva react to all this?

Sorry I deviated a bit from your post but I enjoyed reading it so much!! ❤️ Bookmarking this to read again from the beginning! This was such a treat! Thank you 🤗

First of all, thank you so much for sharing this wonderful real life experience of yours which is filled with innocence, and so much insight. ❤️We’ve all had our reservations about Dave and he’s stupid intentions of being diplomatic. Your anecdotal Experience helped me understand Dev much better. I can’t thank you enough again and again.

You know that I have always enjoyed reading your posts and frankly speaking I really have nothing to add. This is so perfectly Articulated and has every bit of analysis that I would like to read.👏

Thank you so much for taking out such a long time to revert to this post with this great opinion piece. Keep reading and shining🤗

Piu, another wonderful compilation of their childhood❤️ I felt like I was watching the episodes again after reading these posts. These posts have really made me crave for more childhood scenes. The kids were fabulous. i really have felt that we got very less of kid Raavi. I wish the kids are back and we get to see more of kid Raavi, Dev, Shiva and Krish❤️

Dear Pran Priye 🤗

First of all let me give you a quick hug for making this fabulous post and taking out time to point out each and every topic that I have talked about. Kudos to your efforts🤗

First Post

I loved this one so much. The explanation you have given for the song chosen....Awww that was so meaningful❤️

Dev Raavi have been shown to be in the same team since childhood. The hint of anger on little Shiva's face whenever Dev took Raavi's side makes me think if he was sad that raavi doesnot choose him over Dev. I would really love to see the reason as to why Raavi wants to be in Dev's team in childhood.This childhood teaming only led to her imagining Dev as her Prince Charming. Chota Dev and Raavi really had pure friendship. Dev was genuine and I loved their equation. Our aag boy has been uncomfortable since childhood and maybe that is the reason he makes sure he annoys the hell out of her. In this scene he throws the gola so that all her focus is back to him from Dev. Somehow from childhood he wanted her undivided attention.

This post was amazing....I really lived the scene here again❤️

Dev Was always kind compassionate and took care of Ravi. It’s unavoidable To fall for such a nice and kind hearted person. Shiva being the nastier One always made it a point to fight with her. But, deep down, I think he always liked her spirit.

Second post

This post I must say had broadened by thoughts. I have seen these scenes so many times but this is the first I noticed the head hung while apologising. You have pointed out the subtle details of Shiva so well. i am going to rewatch this scene now. There is so much in these small scenes. You have penned it down so well about Shiva's loneliness. Another favorite part in this post is how you have mentioned the adult like anger in Shiva while doing the marble kaand. Yes yes ..the cap perfectly reveals this....I have completely missed out on these moments.....I really need to rewatch the scene. Shiva's noano second happiness when he thought Raavi was in his team...the guy needed her around him always❤️

And, is it so easy to forget for Shiva that this girl chanted Dev, and always been in love with her brother?

The above line is deep....it sums up Shiva inner turmoil fully...i was reminded of the scene where Shiva sees raavi's gift for Dev after their wedding....The momentary sadness and loneliness that he can never be Dev....Shiva really needs a tight hug❤️

Amazing post as usual....really i need to watch the scene missed out so many things😆

In real life, such a Scenario would be devastating for anyone to cope up with. We all know that Shiva and Ravi will finally fall in love, but their legacy of hatred, her love for Dev is something that can’t be ignored for sure.

Third Post

I have always felt Shiva reveals his real self to some extent to Raavi. As you have rightly mentioned, he compartmentalizes his feelings often and tries to mask it a lot. He might be successful with the same but I guess the guard comes off infront of Raavi.

What a parallel...Choti Raavi being instrumental in getting the kangans ❤️

the jhalla and jhalli game😆

Wow...you connected it with Raavi's birthday..that was so apt...Yes in that scene we could see the anger in Shiva's eyes seeing Dev and Raavi all smiling....and here in this scene too..Chotu Shiva is not all happy with Raavi doing her Dev jaap😆

Dev being Dev is so concerned for Raavi...it was so natural and that is why I felt Dev's apology also spontaneous and true....he really wishes the best for Raavi always and wants to be the best friend in her life❤️

I really wish to see more of such scenes where the Dev Raavi bond makes our jhalla go hysteric😆

The parallels you have mentioned are too good....I really want more such scenes...we need to get the kids back and show us what transpired in that 10 years for Raavi to go all dreamy over Dev, what was Shiva's feelings for Raavi over these years....omg..there is so much to explore...

I would Be heartbroken if the creatives don’t take this route. I want Shiva to go mad looking at Dev and Ravi. 😆

I have shared few of my thoughts on their childhood in the EDT and I am really looking forward to see more of these three....❤️

I have read those and trust us to be so excited for this track.

Thanks for writing these amazing posts...I really felt like i am watching the episode..You have made me want to rewatch these scenes again. Their childhood has perfectly transpired into adulthood and we need to see how they progress from here

Lovely posts....and I hope to read more of these soon❤️❤️

I am so glad that I could teleport you to their childhood. They are my favourite bits for sure 🤗

Thank you so much for taking out time to comment on this thread and reply with your analysis. There were so many points you touched that have always lingered at the back of my mind.

Piu!! Let me give you a big hug first for this beautiful post!! 🤗❤️ You are just amazing! I loved reading every single bit of it! The way you have analyzed the chotu Shiva and Raavi, I have no words to tell you how beautiful it is!! It takes me back to those scenes and now I am going to watch them again!! Your words, the analysis everything is bang on! I loved the way you said this

Thank you so much for your big hug. I am amazed at the kind of love showered by you on this post.🤗

“The Dev-Shiva-Raavi Angle could be a huge exploration concept where it could finally help Shiva overcome his latent sibling rivalry, and would help him move past his apprehensions, fears and emotional loneliness.”

This angle is something I really want the writers to delve deeper into!! I hope they do and don’t superficially show us things. Dev-Raavi need a proper closure for Shiva to move past his insecurities. He needs that assurance that Raavi will love him more than she has loved anyone else. That will only happen when we get meaningful scenes that explore the relationship of this trio in depth! I hope we get those scenes and we can only pray for that!

But reading your analysis makes me imagine and perceive things differently! Thank you for making my mornings beautiful with your words! You are amazing Piu!🤗❤️

I’ve High hopes from this track but given the history of PS makers, I am not sure whether they would touch upon this aspect in detail or not. We all know Ravi will love Shiva with her whole heart. I am waiting for the day they both become vocal about their feelings.☺️

So beautifully written ❤️... Lovely post...
