I liked the episode! It wasn't a filler and it wasn't packed with too much either. Just the right amount and the CVs have understood how to keep us happy. Just keep giving us AvNeil scenes and we will accept any track they show. 😆
Will talk about the episode tomorrow but just a word on Neil's reaction. I think it was apt. He has not been celebrating Ganesh Chaturthi for years and it is not just a - "I don't want to celebrate it because it reminds me of Juhi" but rather a - "I won't celebrate it, because how can I worship someone who Juhi believed in wholeheartedly and yet he cruelly snatched her away from me". That is my interpretation at least. It is clear from DD as well as Bebe and Prakash papa's reactions that this would affect Neil greatly and that is why him leaving the house and refusing to stay made absolute sense.
I don't think it means anything with regard to his feelings for both Juhi and Avni. Neil is a romantic at heart, we can see that from the flashbacks as well his current interactions with Avni. I am not saying that his love for either lady is stronger than the other. Juhi was his young-love. The love that he thought would last a lifetime. The cute, friends-turn-partners sort of love. He loved her with all her heart and so, she would always have a special place in his heart. Does that mean he has in the spur of the moment forgotten about Avni and his feelings for Avni? I definitely do not think so. No one wants to be reminded of a tragedy that happened in their past (Shweta, rot in hell). It is bound to affect them and given how he has been actively avoiding Ganesh Chaturthi every year, this must have hit him harder because he has to confront his feelings all at once now.
I don't know if it is a misleading precap - Avni will probably see the photograph but Neil-Juhi's meeting might not happen and to be honest, I would rather have them meet later. I hope Neil goes back to the studio and has a breakdown and Avni comes in, not to console him but to also learn the truth from him directly. I would love to see an emotional scene between the two, with Neil breaking down for the first time after having been Avni's pillar of support all this while. Role-reversal for the win!
Also, Poonam and Zain have minus chemistry, not even zero chemistry. 😆 Poonam is getting on my nerves, big time. There was no spark whatsoever between them, but hey, it's fine. I just need the spark between Aditi-Zain so that the AvNeil scenes look bomb af.
