Such a cruel game is being played with Aarti. She is the last person in the universe to deserve this! Is it too much to ask for her to be happy with Raghu?
I have to hand it to Ayesha for being a tremendously gifted actress, though...Raghu once thought that Ayesha's a much, much better actress in real life than she is in front of the camera - and that's very true. A horribly brilliant masterstroke on her part, sacrificing her Dream Girl image just to be able to marry Raghu. That's the source of all my woes right now, haha.
I am wondering how long Ayesha will be able to maintain the facade of being "Aarti" since she's married to Raghu now. When Aarti reached out to Raghu, wanting to hold his hand, I wondered what would have happened if he had touched her...It broke my heart, seeing him walk away from her.
As far as the acting goes, I'm enjoying the multiple levels of performances from Shraddha, as well as Sudeep's in-character reactions to those characters. Quite a complicated scenario -- and they're doing a great job! The Ayesha-Raghu-Aarti triangle is one that I was all up for, and I still am -- but only if they don't change Aarti's face! Right now every episode feels like a ticking time bomb, and that's a feeling I could really do without.
