First off, Kamini-Daksh-ACP, are they really related? I got the feels that it's actually just the collaboration of three villains, who are helping each other out and posing as a family. I could be wrong though.
Secondly, as much as I feel bad for Priyanka, I'm glad the blackmail video was used on her and not Annika. However, it makes me question if the pregnancy track is still possible. Priyanka may or may not be pregnant but Daksh can state that she is (fake reports are not hard for villains to come by) he can use that to blackmail either Shivaay or Annika. And since we know, no one in the Oberoi family confronts each other.. Shivaay or Annika will believe it's true. I know a lot of people hope that Priyanka and ACP won't end up getting married, but I think they will because their story won't move forward otherwise!
Thirdly, I loved the Shivika moments today. Seeing them have a genuine conversation felt good. Both acknowledging each other's siblings as their own made my heart melt! I won't speak about Annika having to touch Daksh's feet because if I start on that rant I will need to make a whole new post!
Fourthly, I still have my doubts on whether Shivaay will be able to announce Annika as his wife. This whole mistress talk will definitely happen during or after the Ashirwad ceremony!
Lastly, I hope the CVs come up with something creative. I think as an audience I'm tired of the whole closed door blackmailing thing ( towards Annika and Shivaay that is). I think what will make this track interesting is that whatever Daksh does he does it openly in front of both Shivaay and Annika. If he wants to blackmail them, do it openly to both etc. I rather see them both helpless and hurt knowing that whatever they are doing is for the family. If I have to see Shivika in pain, i rather see it like this where they both are helpless and know what they both are going through. I feel it will make them stronger and they will still be able to support each other. If Daksh openly challenges them, and if Annika has to abide by Dakshs rules like how we saw today, it will make Shivaay go crazy, we will see his angst, his protection and the audience will get to witness Shivaays true "paati" avatar. By blackmailing one of them, both will be hurt but that type of pain I can't personally handle because one doesn't know why the other is doing it.
These are just some of my thoughts... I do hope this track ends quickly as I can't tolerate this ponytail character for long!
Ps. The adults of this show need to wake up and smell the coffee, it's true they act as if they are just part of the setting (why have a couch and table when you have them)- spectators to the drama.
