Yesterday's episode saw the return of one of my favourite aspects of the show: Akaash's acrophobia. But omg, I don't think I was prepared for the sheer intensity of that scene. That entire time he was on that trench, I had my breath caught in my throat. It wasn't fear or nervousness or worry that Akaash wouldn't make it or would fall off. But the impact of the scene, the way it was filmed, enacted and presented did affect me a bit too much for my comfort. Till today, the flashbacks of Gaurav's death unsettle me whenever played. And adding Akaash hanging on for dear life quite literally, that feeling can't be described in words. Some scenes are like that. They stay with you and no amount of watches makes you get over them. This was one such scene.
