"Perhaps it is our imperfections that make us so perfect for one another" Jane Austen
I think this best describes Shlok and Aastha.. two imperfect, flawed and thereby normal people who seem to be perfect for each other... ... theirs is no love is in the air type love story.. it is dark and closer to reality... two people who are getting irresistibly drawn closer to each other because fate brought them together.. and they are destined to live their lives together...
as aastha says, they are the river banks which will eventually meet.. and no one can stop it
I loved today's episode and aastha's open, happy and uncaring declaration of her love... and shlok's acceptance of it ,.. in his own akdu way😆 and his futile gyaan about his baba etc.. just words to keep her in abeyance as he is too scared to admit his feelings.. he even attempts to put back the curtain which fell by accident and while he is doing it, he remembers aastha telling him she loves him... and he stops.. and aastha comes in just then and takes away the curtain.. and he does not protest..
the curtain falling scene was too cute...waseem magic in action!! .. shrenu is such a natural in such scenes and shlok's short smile and calling her mental again... avi and shrenu again rocked it with their effortless acting and expressions... they have become experts in nok jhok as well!!😳
when aastha starts laughing... shlok smiles .. he is happy too...no doubt about that.. what a change from the night before when both of them were glum and aastha was crying her heart out!! just a change of mind and heart can change one's mood!!
also liked the scene where aastha pretends to flirt with shlok for the sake of
onlooker aditi and then tells him she is sure their river banks will meet
eventually.. like her confidence and new found faith in shlok..
the court scene at the beginning was very good as aastha showed so much courage and strength to speak to her mother frankly , unlike the last time when she agreed to the divorce reluctantly.. this time she is very sure not only of her love, but also has faith that shlok loves her and needs her.. as she says.."rishton ko mushkil gadi mey hi sahi pehchaan hothi hai".. what lovely lines...for aastha!
and the important turn of event today.. kalindi comes to terms and not only accepts aastha's decision, but alsio decides to become her taakath rather than her kamzori... great attitude .. its this supportive family as ajju says that gives aastha her courage.!
and aditi is the onlooker of all these events... and aastha reveals to us why she finally took the decision to stay..bcos she heard aditi tell someone on the phone that she saw takleef in shlok's eyes when he knew aastha was leaving and her threat to wipe him out come what may makes aastha stay back to complete unfinished business and begin her life afresh with
shlok.. khel khelney key liye shuru ho jaao she wanrs aditi.. lets hope she keeps her cards close to her chest this time!!😆
and anjali and sojal are back to behaving as they normally do.. ignoring aastha big time or taunting her.. but aastha gives a damn.. she says she cares only for shlok's opinion and nothing else matters to her.. aditi is going to take drastic steps now to eliminate aastha
lets see what happens..
the scene of jyoti looking for a job and then suddenly remembering ashlok and telling herself that these two are in love but have not realised it and her wish for them to be together was poignant..
the pre-cap...
aastha lovingly looking at her dear shlokie and jyoti passing by.. hope ashlok spot her.. but maybe they wont... lets see... very interesting and action packed week ahead!!
