He needed a reaction from her but at what expense? I understand he is an idiot and couldn't think logically in that state but Adi is always does things impulsively without thinking who he is going to hurt in the process. That really needs to change about him because in future when they have real issues all this will ruin their marriage.
You are not alone, I found the episode to be par excellence. Read between the lines, he said everything today! Aditya should be Psychiatrist not Captain Hooda! But seriously what did he do wrong. It was hardly a prank- he didn't act dead na?! He wanted a reaction from her and he got it. He's not really been in love, with Pooja it was friends that married so that meant love. Not real love!
Aditya knows No different, his BP pyaar is allowed. However i understand Zoya's doubts. Like Aditya said, a human can't stop loving in fear of deception. A human can't stop living in fear of death. Thats it right there, what does Zoya actually fear? Deception or Love? She makes sense, but her mind is playing games with her. His constant reminders are best to continue because like a child with a dummy, Aditya is her pacifier! Only he gets her and vice versa!
But yesss I loved what he said to Zoya. He really understands Zoya more than anyone because they have gone through the same pain. The fears he felt he knows she feels it too.
