The Angry (not so) young man! - 22nd May 2016 Epi

Loved how Atharv stood up for Vividha and the way Vividha was looking at him as if surprised he has grown to know her so well in the little time they met. He was bang on on Vividha's character and didn't falter to praise her in front of Kailash. What I like about Atharv is he isn't one of those macho guys which take it on themselves to set things right and earn all the credit, he gave Vividha due credit for getting Payal back and even compared her to his mom. That was biggest sweetest thing he could have said because his mom is the most important person in his life...guess that's why Vividha will also be as important to him one day. Whether Vividha will have the same strength as Sujata when it comes to choosing between Atharv and Kailash remains to be seen but for now both are equally impressed by the other and it's good to see.

The last scene was the best. Both thinking of the other and listing the good and bad (they weren't that bad...sounded like the bad stuff was as endearing to them😳) qualities of the other.

On a side note, I love Guddi too much. She's steering Vividha towards the right track when it comes to Atharv. Keep going girl!.😛

I absolutely love the characterization of Atharv. After Shravan Malhotra, here is another hero in recent times that is not an MCP, volatile, arrogant and belittling/humiliating others/female lead type hero. I guess it's Indian television's revolutionary change of typical male lead characters and I am enjoying this change (hopefully it stays lol). There is such a wonderful balance between soft and hard to Atharv. I too really loved how Atharv did not just drive off or watch the Kailash's wrath unravel but instead intervened and stood up for her. The way he stood between Vividha and Kailash hints at the clash to come in the future when they do fall in love.

It was also such a poignant scene when he added that line about how he always thought his mother was the only strong woman until he met Vividha -- like you mentioned and Vividha's smile at that was so heart-warming. I love the background music on this show that plays during their scenes.

That being said, the melodrama quotient on this show keeps increasing which is kind of annoying at times. The actor that portrays the role of Kailash did a great job displaying the varied emotions in the episode. The volcanic anger that was on the brink of erupting to the facade of gratitude and calmness was so seamless. I am hoping one day Vividha's mother will gain the strength to stand up for herself and not let him dominate and unleash his anger on her all the time. It's also sad that Vividha holds her father to such a high pedigree and be so blinded to the real core inside him.

I like this show so far but hopefully they can keep the melodrama quotient low or maybe even at the same level as it is. Otherwise, I like watching this show.
