I enjoyed yesterday's episode.
Shaurya pushing Mehak into the pool was a shocker, after knowing she can't swim. He waited for the cameras to capture her struggle before he jumped in to save her. He was his calculating, manipulative self till then, once he took the plunge into the pool, I bet something shifted for him. He didn't account for his own feelings when he was engineering TRP dramas using Mehak.
I think, yesterday was the beginning of things going out of his control.
Did I see him get slightly disturbed when Mehak ignored him when he went to unsettle her? Then he ate the vegetable he hates and declared the person who cooked the dish a winner with a smile. And with that smile I think, Shaurya surrendered.
Every time he eats her food he calms down & ready to make peace. She or her family annoy him soon after and he picks the arms again.
I might be the only one, who wants to give Sharuya the benefit of doubt for the spiked drink. Will wait for the episode to play out tonight before condemning him. I know the slapgate will again set him on vengeful path. But, the romantic in me tells, it'll be a different Shaurya who'll try to keep Rajiv's favourite contestant close to his heart.
