After watching today's episode I'm in awe of Sahir!...What intensity man!! This is by far Shantanu's best performance as Sahir I feel!..

The aggression and the underlying pain was so damn evident..

I was so excited to see angry Shantanu and this guy went way beyond my expectations!..Well, suits him cuz predictable is soo not Shantanu!...

Initially I thought he was being too tough with Isha( not that I didn't like it cuz he was way too good at being tough as well ) but with that depth in his acting and powerful potrayal of emotions , I ended up being totally on his side. May be whatever Isha did was out of love for him ,but knowing Sahir it was definitely a wrong step as she is well aware of how important his self respect is for him..

A little about Sahir's past was revealed but not enough yet...Isha was a shade better today but then it was Shantanu I had my eyes on the entire time.

So how many of you are totally loving Sahir after today's episode like me??😳

I was waiting to see this side of Sahir and even more this side of Shantanu's great talent. And today was all that. Loved the scene, and his characterization. I wouldn't usually be saying this, as I know people need time to grow etc., but its been more than a month, and actually more than that since the casts starts working before airing date. And Saloni as Isha really hasn't shown any graph of improvement, and it really really showed today. This couldve been an iconic scene as two characters and moreso two actors, but the one sided characterization and acting by Shantanu and the lack of attempt by the other side really brings down the scene and its not fair to the amazing script in today's scene. Gia's performance today was also really good.

Gotta reserve here!!!! Shantanu *___*

^Unreserve^

Shantanu just needs a strong script and good nice crisp dialouges to churn your emotions!!!!! He was ON FIRE YESTERDAY! Gosh, it had been so so so long that I had seen such a Brilliant performancs from him. . .And it was so different from anything that he had perform earlier. He has been angry pehle bhi but the frustation, anger, hurt, disgust uff!!!!! The guy is a POWERHOUSE OF TALENT. He showed what he is able to do as an actor when he gets to perform. The intensity which he displayed was chilling!

P.S. Watching him perform like that yesterday, Now I wanna see him playing an abusive boyfriend someday. e would be BRILLIANT!!!

Shantanu single handedly pulled off the scene so well. This is the 1st scene in GOT till now where Sahir as a character was given substance . I hope we get to see more shades of Sahir like tonight's.

I feel this approach of the creatives is better to give more scope to Shantanu in the scene than Saloni coz we all know she is very weak. Tonight I felt the scene left an impact coz Shantanu had more to do and say in the scene and Saloni hardly had anything to do. Had this been a scene of equal footing of both the characters , thanks to Saloni this would have fallen flat too like previous scenes. This is a safer approach i feel to make Isha Sahir scenes work.

This scene was majorly pulled off by Shantanu and so Saloni's weakness couldn't be pointed out that much, so for me the scene was up to the mark and very cleverly written as far as Saloni's role was concerned.. This scene belonged totally to Shantanu cuz Saloni didn't have much role to play but I still feel that she was a wee bit better today..She's done an emotional scene earlier but today her performance was better...Maybe it was the effect of the emotionally strong and impactful scene or maybe Shantanu passed on some good vibes with his splendid performance.😳

And yeah Gia was amazing as always...I liked Rev and Guru also today..The episode overall was bang on!..

Shantanu made me fall for Sahir today...
Todays Sahir was on fire. All those aggression,hatred,pain,broken,betrayed,hurt was perfectly potrayed by Shantanu.
This has to be the best performance of Shantanu as Sahir.
Hats off man...
There is lot to say but I'm lost of words.
He set a benchmark after this episode.

Very well written post. Justifies Shantanu's brilliant performance in yesterday's episode. I had a lot of expectations from the scene & Shantanu delivered much more than that. For the first time I felt Sahir's pain. Hats off to Shantanu for pulling off the scene single handedly & ha proved what he can do if given a strong script & proper space. The way his voice broke at times,his hand movements,those intense eyes,damn he is such a good actor. Thanks to the writers for not giving Saloni much to do in the scene. Saved the scene somehow,those crying shots in between were disturbing much. But Shantanu covered it up for her too. Awesome script in terms of characterisation,dialogues & Shantanu did full justice to it. Smart move by creatives to make Isha sahir scene look good but I doubt for how long this gonna work without Saloni contributing anything.

True that!..Shantanu fits in for any role as he performs with conviction trying to give his best and that always reflects inspite of the fact that his performance looks effortless!...

I just hope that the creatives keep his strengths in mind and continue to give him such substantial scenes to perform. After this scene even I'm craving for more of intense ,angry Sahir scenes !

Abusive boyfriend?? You be so evil Chitra 😆 but yeah surely that'd be a treat to watch...Generally I would have always said I'd like to see Shantanu as the protagonist but now I feel it would be VERY interesting to see him potray a villainous character someday. 😉..
