Another ok kind of episode, I wish they move the story at a faster pace..
Most interesting part of the episode is precap. There is some progress in the story in precap with Disha & Aarav attempting to leave the house and Ram successfully wiping off the stupid grin from Ayaan's face.
Coming to the episode, the cricket scene was good, especially Aarav's part. His expression when he gets out, his strong statement of he being Ram Ahuja's son and that rules are rules, only an innocent kid can be so open and sweet. He isn't holding any grudges against his granddad, at the same time his loyalty and pride with his father remains intact. Poor Disha, she couldn't do either.. Even Mr. Kapoor have no words to say against Ram when the boy announces proudly that he is Ram Ahuja's son. That's the power and beauty of innocence.
No surprises from M & M duo, they are getting pissed off with the growing closeness of Mr. Kapoor with Aarav & Disha.
Someone I couldn't relate to Disha's determination to hit her grandfather's ball hard because of the way he treated his mom. I can understand her reluctance to play with her granddad, but this revenge taking in a fun game looked churlish & childish. Anyway, it was Ayaaan who paid the price of the revenge hit.
Another attempt at meaningless comedy with Ayaan's boss. It is certainly not laugh-worthy. Ayaan still wanting to represent Ram, no surprises there.
Mr, Kapoor advising Ayaan against taking such a case as his first case and then wishing (rather demanding) him to win it,. Well executed scene, but again on the expected lines. M & M duo's kids are only snooty with Aarav & Disha, they were perfectly nice and polite with the driver's son. It is obvious that it is their parent's mindset which influences them against Disha & Aarav.
Somehow I am not able to like the Ayaaan character, his over enthusiasm and OTT happiness really puts me off. Maybe the show needs this kind of induced lightheartedness for attracting / retaining certain section of audience.
Ayaan getting involuntarily hit / hurt by Disha for 2 times is ok, the third time looked too cliched. And it also made me wonder why so many interludes between the two, Is the romance track on the immediate pipeline? Hope not...
A new FB, with Anu & kids. Can't expect Ram in any new FBs, with his beard (unless they have some more FBs of him banked before he started growing beard). Nice one. Touchy to see the kids remembering and missing their mom, but Ayaan playing the same tune as Anu? Again too cliched.
Mahima as Disha is very good in portraying hurt, sadness, anger, stubbornness, etc, but her performances in embarrassed scenes or funny scenes is not so good.
Just can't understand what is the need of the goon track.. It reminds me of the old movies where we invariably find a goon in the prison if the hero ends up there. Most probably it is a technique to drag. There is also possibility that the goon might badmouth Anu which provokes Ram to beat him up. A smart lawyer can show this as a proof of Ram's love for Anu,
Precap : as I said, an interesting one. M&M duo successfully provokes Disha to decide to leave the house, but it is obvious they are not leaving as they encounter Mr. Kapoor on the way out. Ram agreeing to Ayaan's representation on a condition that he should lose the case. I have never been so glad to see somebody's smile vanishing ;). I am still not convinced of the acting skills of the actor playing Ayaan. Guess any scene of his with Ram will expose his weakness. Hope he bucks up fast.
