Hey guys :)
Aside from the obvious throwback to "Chamko" in the name Chamko Cafe, I loved how Ali has re-created/developed his and Avni's secret hideout. Such a beautiful thought... waiting for Avni at the place (or in a place that's a close approximation of) their childhood haunt...

Sorry I would have embedded the images but the site appears temperamental and is refusing to work
Is Ali going to be the new Neela? She used to be so full of cheerfulness and had unquestioning faith in Ashish. I'm guessing Avni is not going to be able to be very honest with Ali (due to very valid reasons I'm sure) and he's gonna get his heart broken like Neela... :'(
Another parallel I see is that Ayesha had to live as Asha for a long period because of the Mehtas. And now her daughter Avni has been living as Ananya. Time to break that cycle of oppression this season!
I stopped watching after a certain point pre-leap though. So can someone tell me if Neil was introduced as a kid before the leap? Or is his character a new addition?
Also who do we think Aman is with? Has Neela been raising him or Dayawanti (his personality will depend on this :S)?
