Today's episode was so good I had to review it!
First up is the anxiety in trying to find Madhu and Arnav. All the actors were great in this scene and for the first time I loved Aditya because there was real anxiety in his eyes and on his face for Arnav.
Then the mandir scene. Madhu was full-out mad and Nigaar did a fab job here. The way the family tries to stop her and Neeraj is ready to jump in if needed was well portrayed as well. The best part was when Aditya and Jai ran forward to catch Madhu. (Side note: Neeraj and Jai were looking super hot in this scene. ☺️) Samaira does the saving and even though she's scared and wants to reveal that she's Shikha I loved the way she managed herself and kept calling Arnav Madhu's son. I'm not exactly sure how Arnav got hurt since the bullet hit a tree branch pretty far back...but I had a feeling that either Arnav or Neeraj would get hurt and I was proven right. 🥱
Aditya and Samaira in the car and then the hospital made me feel like they both were truly regretting everything that had ever done. Especially Aditya. When he was told that Arnav was critical the tears, the pain, the anxiety, everything was so real. It was like he finally realized that this was his son. And Samaira or Shikha was in pain for putting her Manav in danger to get her revenge. The regret, the pain, the inability to do anything was etched on her face.
And the entire Jagannath family in front of the mandir was a treat. The way Mahanto finally realized that it was time to send Madhu to the mental asylum, Sunaina demanding answers, and Jai and Aliya pushing for Mahanto to send Madhu to the asylum was well done.
The last couple of scenes in front of the hospital mandir was a bit too much though so no comments there.
The show stealer was the precap though. It looks like Samaira reveals that she's Shikha to the doctor in front of Neeraj and Madhu overhears. Now what remains to be seen is how Madhu reacts or if she actually overheard.
Overall this was probably one of the best episodes in quite some time.
