It's all about character....flaws

Yep, that about sums it up right now...LOL

That's what the story has coalesced around. Since the past many days, we were seeing Anika's character being brought into question by Chachi, Daksh, Shivaay himself...well today, in a convenient turn of events, Priyanka's character got brought into question by that random reporter Tyagi😆...boy does he turn up at opportune moments, doesn't he? P's groom bails on her at the last moment and out of nowhere a reporter shows up to question her character...on one level ofcourse this is a setup to justify Shivaay trying to avenge the aspersions cast on his sister's character cuz of Anika's actions as he sees it...on another level this ironically isn't that far fetched that a woman's character is instantly questioned by society cuz a man left her at the altar🤔. this is exactly what HS and team are going for in the bigger Picture. If you Notice kisi Ek woman ka Character isn't being Questioned Here. It is a chain Majority of women in this Redux at some point have had a question mark than Be it Anika, Prinku , Anika's Mom or even Pinky Singh Oberoi ( even if her question mark is thoda different. Anika raised this Question in yesterday's Episode too ke Ladki ki hi izaat be baat aayegi aur ussi ke parivar ko jhelna padega but aisa kyon hota hai humari society main humesha ladki hi kyon answerable ho. Sadly not sure if this thoguth process will ever change in our society but chalo let's see how they address it if they are planning too beyond just using it to set up the drama.

I am still curious to know reporter ko khabar mili kahans e and kisne di ke D bhaag gaya doesn't seem like he did it toh yeh kya bahar hi khada tha to see ke kaun bhaga kaun nahi?but what timing . Man acha bhalla banda hil jaaye at such turn of events jahan mins pehle they were happily blessing DP wahan secs main sab kaya palat ho gaya and baat P ke character tak pohnch gayi

This Tyagi btw also feels like a stroke of Karma for Shivaay...he made a permanent enemy out of this guy thanks to his cold blooded threat to kill off his family...since then this guy has become more obsessed with any and every chance to take Shivaay down. Today also he showed up to smirk at Shivaay's misery and pour oil into the fire. This Guy is so good at these smirks and sarcastic tone . i always enjoyed that in Mahi way too hahha that Kjo wali tone is hahah

Anika on the other end is totally on a whole other trip😆😆...In some ways I can only laugh at her blatant stupidity. She walks back home coolly after being out the whole night without informing her family and she expects no questions asked? Ofcourse she doesn't deserve Chachi's overdose of "muh kaala" lines either but her obtuseness is quite unbelievable to behold. She was as if walk karke aayi garden se bewakoof ladki😆 and kuch hua hi nahi. btw what else surprised me was now she knows Shivaay saw her as Shanno phir bhi she is not worrying about kya hoga his reaction or anything maze se she is like so what i took a disguise 😆

Nikhil has suddenly switched over from only needing money from Anika to now being a righteous fiance feeling neglected and insulted😆...that aside, his points were valid in many ways...why does Anika insist on running after Shivaay 24/7 even after he kicked her out of the job, his house? To add to the hilarity, Nikhil's reactions to "Ab yeh PAYAL kaun hai?" mirror those of the audience😆😆...ki kaun Payal, kahaan se aayi yeh beech mein? And Anika again betrays her Shivaay obsession by describing Payal as "SHIVAAY ki BEHEN ki DOST"😆😆...matlab har cheez ka reference Shivaay se hi shuru hota hai Anika ka😆 Best he was like Anika bhi har minute baad apni samasya badal leti hai i felt his exasperation

Then there's Shivaay on the other end...all he ever wanted to do in life was marry off his sister happily...and his whole world collapsed before his eyes today...I've not been a fan of the OTT senti scenes b/w Shivaay and Prinku in this redux but today, NM did a fantastic job of expressing Shivaay's emotions...👏👏...everything from his initial sense of urgency seeing P lose it and trying to calm her down, fix this somehow...his fierce defense of her in front of the media, his reaction to the accident and the aftermath.

A special mention for the STILLNESS that came over Shivaay when he saw P getting run over by the car...that expression was so well done by NM...awesome stuff from him today👏 Mindblowing Stuff from NM the way he just froze the slow walk towards prinku the darr whiel getting to her and then broken words in middle of breaking down. he really thought he lost her it all ended .👏👏👏👏👏👏👏. The way his eyes totally went glassy Lifeless at that moment life sucked out of them. saans bhi ruk gaya,. he went numb on the spot.

And then his breakdown later on, before vowing to make Anika pay for this Again Fabulous Stuff . Must say not an easy spot to be in kahan they were all geared up for khushiyan and bidaai and here the bidaai got a lil too bloody serious Even if P did go in coma her life got saved but same being in that place with those thought sin your head holding it together is not easy and on top he is lonely nobody else to support him either. The break down was so so Beautifully enacted 👏 On top of the worries just sheer disappointment in himself that he failed to execute it and in giving his sister the happily ever after the guilt mixing up with pareshani the restlessness and helplessness Brilliant stuff

The hospital bit was also so touchingly enacted...the way Shivaay said, "Aapka Billu haar gaya, Daadi" just said so much...in that moment, he felt defeated...the Shivaay who's otherwise expected to fix everything in this redux also felt defeated by his circumstances...he couldn't save his sister's marriage, he couldn't save her from the accident, he couldn't save her from going into a coma...in that moment he felt utterly helpless and defeated...and NM enacted that emotion so well there👏👏 this moment reminded me of him saying that in vanvaas to dadi but again aaj ek different restraint bhi tha in shivaay while he said it. then he broke down and shwoed it to dadi today he is so distinct consumed in his own thoughts guilt tripping feeling defeated not knowing what future holds for his sister the only person he calls family until now. His everything and really not knowing much either what he is going to do. I also have to mention here Dadi the iron lady I was like applause for this woman over here too even in this situation she was trying to encourage the boys hold them together when in this age all this happening and dealing with it is just so Sad and so not fair. Though i don't get what her life has to do with having 3 brothers😆 that was funny but otherwise i got her intent. here i have to mention while dadi was being encouragign her again dumping the responsibility of sab theek kar dena on Billu isn't fair on him. he is already so lost so hurt and uppar se dadi ka well he will fix everything is like rubbing salt on his wounds as if he isn't feeling already upset over this very thing that he failed uppar se reminders

Perhaps Shivaay would have stopped at maligning her character enough to make N run away to avenge what P felt when her groom ran out on her too...he was about to walk out after that but ANIKA ke andar ki TIGRESS decided to wake up only THEN😆 .that was the plan but anika bechari ki timing phir galat ho gayi. 😆..and question him about WHY he did all this...and that is what will lead to act two of this drama it looks like...since Anika insists on being so utterly obtuse, perhaps Shivaay will show her tomorrow what P's state is...how they get from that to him marrying her in the mandir remains to be seen.

I liked the precap cuz it had a sense of takkar in it from both sides...also LOL'ed at the way Shivaay flicked his hand at a departing Nikhil ki jaa yahaan se😆 that is Fab i am watching it on repeat 😳 Now we are Back to our takkar ke Tadibaaz Ladaku Bache . also notice the haq yet again in the way this Tigress flicked him aside and yelled at him

And then for the first time in this redux, Anika fiercely swung around Shivaay to question him

And that's when Shivaay decided to take things to the next level...last time it was the slap and this time it seems to be her asking him angrily, "what did I even do"? ...Perhaps the question was too much for him to bear after having lived through all he did

How convenient those mandap steps turned out to be for him to manage to put her on his shoulder otherwise vertically challenged ho jaata😆😆

From where things stand right now, HS has managed to give plenty of justification for why Shivaay will lose his mind in anger while Anika is looking like an utterly clueless and strangely apathetic fool...ofcourse the R word being tossed around by Shivaay will never feel justified but today they tried to give him a basis for it by him feeling the need to avenge his sister's honor being tarnished. So it has come down to a give and take of character...if P's character will be maligned, so will Anika's...that's Shivaay's "logic" for now it seems...lol WOrd It is about Jaise ko taisa in his Head as of now main kyon peeche rahoon 😆
