Manav -- I just saw the ME about an hour ago and the scene where he grabs Archana's arm was simply awesome. It showed passion, rage and a sense of ownership over her that is terribly romantic. Best scene in a few months for sure, and all thanks to his eyes. Good stuff. The vascillation has begun. He is bound to do a little bit of this and that before he settles on something. The more time he spends on Archana, the more he will appreciate her . The best thing that can happen to them is she gets engaged to the Jaywant character before Manav gets married - will make for some more smouldering looks and scenes.
Archana - Something has to make her agree to marriage and I think it will be Savita's Sachin card. I think one of these days Manav will confide to Savita or Damo abt how he cant marry Shravani coz he still loves Archana and then Savita will go blackmail Archana into accepting the proposal and out come fireworks.
Manju et all - fillers as usual. Manju is just unhinged right now. Whatever happened to her attack of conscience with Vandita? Why does she hate the Karanjkars? She doesnt seem like a misanthrope...so why?? Its all very very shabbily done.
Dharmesh - finally the creatives to use some actual legalese in the serial. Good to see - the bond was necessary and basic. Manav in his own very macho way is marking his territory around his woman and wont let a pesky bond come in his way.
On a side note, the 'Aparna' kaki made me laugh..how does she divine that Archana might be depressed if all alone? Little does she know, Archana is having the time of her life with her guy rt now.
Am actually looking fwd to watching the show now ;)
