Doc, Sammy and ttt1 have spelled out the reservations I have had since their first major normal conversation (their dinner together in Sumo's room). What we have seen and understood about Shravan even from his childhood days onwards was his extreme introvert quality. He was not willing to lay bare his heart in front of his friend (even though he had written a love-letter to Sumo.. it was never meant to be a face to face conversation).
During these few interactions that they have had together only one I felt was coming straight from his heart... his thank you to Sumo for having let him inside the core of her being. In yesterday's episode, the court room was badly executed, the dresses were funny and to top it all, I felt Verma's arguments were far more logical and sound than Shravan's (bad direction on the part of CVs). Chalo, we can forgive them. I loved Shravan's entry outside the court and his interactions but did notice when he held Suman's hand for the second time that he was emotionally disconnected with her. When moving out from the farmhouse, I thought it was too uncharacteristic on the part of Shravan to make a joke on farmhouse and that line (tumhe apni chinta ho no, mujhe to hai) was totally out of place.
I guess even if he has no ulterior motive he is doing or rather performing his role of family lawyer to perfection. He has been able to distance himself from his essential emotion or the core of his personality that of loving Sumo. Sumo, on the other hand, is moving or rather tilting towards the other end of the scale.
I wrote in another post of mine that when he visited Sumo's paternal home he was strictly an investigative lawyer. He was neither a friend and definitely not a lover. And as time moves on, Sumo will start to realize her feelings for Shravan, we will get the shock of our lives. He is helping her I believe not out of any malicious intention but definitely not out of love. There were 3 instances when Shravan, the boy who loved Sumo was present... the thank you was heartfelt, his clutching hands of Nanaji and Sumo and telling her Aaj kuch mat bolna and when he again a gave a not so subtle warning to Verma to stay out of Sumo's life. Otherwise, he is doing it because he feels responsible for both Nanu and Sumo.
But, I have seen about these makers that they never insert a scene without a reason. We had all thought the house maintenance was a blooper on the part of CVs but they did mention our reservations about the same from none other than our lawyer. So, I guess Sumo will learn about Shravan's exact feelings as no more stemming from love, friendship but stemming from a sense of duty. I guess she would want to repay for his services as a lawyer by trying to pay his fees. Wonder if she will manage to do that or some other problem might come up. One which will throw them together for life😉
Forgive me, my feelings are all over the place
But, yeah I did think in yesterday's episode, Shravan outside the court was looking like a dream🤗
Forgive me for this long post.
