This show has turned out to be more angsty than I thought. Its definitely not just a cute love story, though the leads are absolutely adorable together.
Initially, I thought it was a mere clash of egos that was stopping them from being honest & confronting each other but after watching today's episode, I don't think its just about their pride, their ego or their self-respect, though that is also a factor.
Both of them are stubborn & are not looking beyond themselves, & how they feel probably because of a bitter incident that led him away & created these distances between them. What they don't see, or are refusing to acknowledge is that they both equally care & are still affected by the mere mention of each other's names. They are scared to make the first step because they are scared of being rejected & this has a lot to do with their dynamics when they were young. For Shravan, one of them has to be Sumo bossing over him when they were young & refusing to acknowledge their relationship. For Suman, it has to be Shravan leaving without an explanation.
Let's see who takes the first step & how they get to it.
