I think more than anything ruzie...it is the offhand way the entire incident was treated and how everyone's reactions was glossed over that proved to be the undoing.

I'm seriously disappointed as well... I guess this is what happens when we keep high expectations. I was expecting to see a concerned mother-in-law in Pinky, but the exact opposite happened, and her jealousy seems almost inhuman, to be honest. I expected to Shivaay to cry and tell Anika how much she matters to him, but as usual, Anika is the one to step up and express her feelings, even though SHE was the one that got shot. I expected a worried family crowding around Anika, their beloved daughter-in-law and wonderful sister-in-law. But instead of acknowledging all that Anika has sacrificed for the family, everyone goes about their business. Akhir kab tak chalega yeh sab?!?!?!?! Don't get me wrong, I love the job the actors are doing on the show, and I think the writers are really talented people. I just think the track is dragging to an extent that I'm finding hard to deal with it all. Lesson learned: Lower expectations, the lower the disappointment level.

Totally agree.. Few facts about the episode, my POV:

1. First of all, I did not like most of the episode. For some reason it seemed to me that the CVs changed the hospital track at the last moment.. Did anyone feel the same? The episode seemed too rushed for me. The way Annika was shown got hurt and then she was found happily chatting with Shivaay was too weird..

2. I could not feel any impact of the scene when Annika was shot.. the kal ho na ho' was extremely distracting and super annoying.

3. Sahil-Shivaay scene was good, but I felt Sahil's part was rushed, probably they didn't have much time for the little one to practice.. Sahil was shown at the poolside rather than by Annika.. and he was calling Rudra as pahelwan' instead of Rudra bhaiya'..!! Weird..!

4. Om-Ru scene was ok for me.. Honestly, OM seemed a guest actor' to me.. He was even calling Rudra as Rudy'...!! I did not feel any magic that I used to feel earlier, the warmth was missing.. We need OBro moments in IB CVs, desperately... !!

5. Shivaay-Pinky scene was really good.. I liked it.. I know a lot of people are upset with Pinky's behavior, but it has a msg guys.. So far Shivaay was seen to care for everyone equally, impartially.. like OM mentioned.. Well he loves his brothers a lot and can die for them, but he never loses his cool when it comes to handle his family matter.. He never gave himself any priority when it came to choose between him and his family... And now it seems that he is relating/bonding to Sahil rather than his family members.. the point is that he can't take care of Oberoi family (read Pinky) if he is not stable himself.. And that's what his condition now..!! It was nicely shown that now he has a world of his own, with Sahil and Annika.. This is NEW..!

6. In the Shivika scene, I found it weird that Annika just gained sense and started to tease Shivaay.. I am not interested to hear Annika's love confession anymore.. If the CVs has decided to bring Shivaay's realization at a later point, that is ok with me.. but that doesn't mean that Annika should keep confessing her feelings.. It's more logical for her to actually tell Shivaay that she saw Kamini who shot at him..

7. I loved Mahi-Kamini scene.. I am really liking this guy and hope that CVs don't kill him..

Some other facts:

1. Who changed Annika's clothes? We didn't have any answer for it at the time when Daksh tried to kill her.. CVs repeated the same thing..!!

2. It seemed that there is msg from the episode and that is Annika is becoming Shivaay's No.1 priority and he is unaware of that.. Rudra has got that hint.. Pinky has realized it from Shivaay's action.. and I am pretty sure, soon everyone will notice this shift in dynamics..
