'Kismet ko hai ye manzoor kya kije'
What a soulful episode it was yesterday!
One can feel 'ghootan' Adarsh was feeling, Very well portrayed.
More he tried to push away His freedom wishes, more he is drawn to her. Aarti at mandir symbolism was so apt! as you have described.
Loved how she gets he is upset, sees his vulnerable side. And gave him that brief moment of vent- to talk about what he was feeling- why he was there. its beginning! this time initiated by Swadheenta.
She was leading him out of this, he was just drawn towards her walking behind! There is a journey they will follow, through ups & downs.
Sinhas dysfunctional functionality was well portrayed as well. Adarsh started speaking - but gave in to please his father!
Mom knows, and she loves this child of hers, so she didn't want to talk with him. As he would have told her & would have been very difficult for her to then manage. Dad is all about connections & deals. And rishta with Bundelas is perfect deal!
His brothers- still not convinced. Hope help him down the road.
And Hope as much as Suhasini trying to run away & ignore this situation- she will face it & stand by Adarsh as she always have. Hope!
