And yesterdays episode was one of my favorites this season. It had everything- the entire cast part of the action, symbolism, MB references, and foreshadowing.
- Rudra aab mere liye ye bazi khelega bhi aur jeetega bhi. Maya has chosen her weapon and now it's time to play it- the wazir, the one that defends and attacks. She has tested him by fire and knows well his abilities.
-Main baharwalo pe MJ se zyada bharosa karta hon. And Maya knows that and therefore has only used facts(as much she could) to win his trust.
- Maya tumhara sath kabhi nahi choregi. I mean so epic. She said it at a very crucial time when Rudra was feeling cornered. Also by saying it in front of Rishi and Ananya, Maya drove a major wedge between Rudra and Anu/Rishi.
- Kabhi kabhi Bacchon ko sekh deni padti hai. MJ just made it very clear he wouldn't take anything against his reputation and image. Rudra has triggered his vengeance and we will see some big outcome soon.
- Jab tak Maya ki akal tumhare sath hai, tum nahi haar sakte. Yes to this so much. The canon Krishna-Arjun reference had me squealing. And yes Rudra needs to have a calm mind to make rational decisions but at this point only Maya can get to him and lead him on the appropriate path which she did with the digital twist.
- Hum Roys ne kya kya nahi kiya apna raaz chupane ke liye. O boy! Dadi knows a lot more about the Roy shady business than being shown. And what a way to support both Rudra and MJ. She was the one who happily showed MJ, Rudras live and advised him to let it goooo!
- Rudra- a fast learner. Much like his name he is super fast and the way he turned the whole interview into a PR stunt was mind blowing. Maya was so impressed. I also loved that he looked at her for approval before turning the game. Shows the duo have an implicit understanding of each other.
- Rishi. The guy showed a new side to himself yesterday. Clearly choosing his dad/family over everything and even leaving his brother in the process. Going ahead he can even leave Maya for the same dad/family repute. His character has so much potential
That precap has me excited and confused. Looking forward to the new week of episode.

I haven't even had time to watch the episode yet. 😒 Between work, studies, and life - I barely get time to take a break. And now I want to add more to my plate. This has been happening more and more for the past few years. I start a show and things just pile up. I end up having to either binge watch on the weekends or binge watch after the show ends. Right now based on the way things are going suddenly, it looks like I'll be binge watching after B2 ends. 🤔
Jan 8th - Kissa Kiss Ka
I haven't watched the last 2 episodes and relied solely on the WUs, but today's I had to watch and managed to get in enough time to watch it. So I dedicate today's analysis to the most important part of the episode and the surrounding drama - kissa kiss ka. (Sounds like a CID episode - god I miss that show so much.)
The kiss, based on promo, seemed a bit too soon for my liking, but the CVs handled it rather well with the surrounding reactions.
Maya - Maya thought she had dreamt the whole thing. This led her to believe that she is falling for Rudra. Rudra's one move has thrown Maya off course within a few seconds. She had thought that she would trap Rudra in her love and use him to get back at MJ, but, in the process, even though it's false, she is starting to believe that she is falling in love with Maya. And even though she was trying to forget the "dream" and become stoic and hard again, the moment she heard the footsteps, there was that little glimmer in her eyes that suggested that she was happy that Rudra had returned.
Up to now, we've all spoken about how Maya is using Rudra and Rishi for her plans, but in reality, Maya is using herself the most. She used herself as bait to trap Rishi in her love and now with Rudra as well. In this plan, Rudra and Rishi will suffer, but Maya will suffer the most. And she already is. She didn't plan on falling for Rudra, but she is. Her suffering. Every time Rishi touches her, she wants to tear her skin off. Her suffering. Every time she feels MJ's presence near her, she becomes distraught, but she has to move on to get her revenge. Her suffering. Tomorrow her biggest fear - helpless in water. Her suffering.
Rudra - Rudra and Maya are not really different. Maya thought the kiss was a dream and hence believes she's falling for Rudra, which isn't part of her plan. She is suffering. Rudra knows the kiss was real and it has opened up his old wounds. He is suffering as well. And their pains are not really different either. Rudra is being drawn towards Maya and falling in love with her, but he has been hurt by love before and does not want that pain again. He is broken and though he has managed to pull himself together, he's being held together by very fine glue. One wrong move and he'll fall apart all over again. And he doesn't want to get close to Maya just because of himself, but also because he's afraid to hurt Maya. Yet it's this very nature of him that will draw him closer to Maya every time.
I mean, look at him. Even during his pain, he suddenly remembered that he had run away from Maya without saying a word and that was selfish of him. He returned, despite his pain, to speak to her and possibly explain himself. Even when he was at his worst, his raw wounds had been opened again, that fine glue had started to come undone, he still had it in him to go back and face the person and the reason he was in that pain to begin with.
The future - Rudra is stronger than he believes. Despite what he suffered, he has it in him to love again. He has it in him to be with someone again. The more he pulls away from Maya, the more he'll be drawn towards her because of his very nature.
And the same is true of Maya. She can claim all she wants that she has no time for love and that her life is only about revenge, but she will be drawn towards Rudra again and again. And the more she tries to fight away love, the harder she'll fall in love.
The two will not always be together. In fact, I have a feeling that, in their stubbornness, they'll hurt each other again and again, but it's this very thing that will also draw them closer together. They'll give each other mixed signals and both will make the same move in those signals, but then have very different reactions afterwards. While Rudra will want to find a way to fix things, Maya will believe it was all a dream. And both won't even realize it as this makes them closer together.
However, over the past few weeks, as the show has progressed, I do have this rather unshakeable feeling. I have this feeling that at the end of all this, Maya will die. This Maya's motive is only revenge. It is her life's goal. And once her goal is complete, she will have no reason left to leave because for her Rudra will still be a dream. I have this rather unshakeable feeling that she'll kill MJ and die in Rudra's arms as she finally realizes that he wasn't a dream, but reality.
Thank you for the beautiful analysis.🤗
I am afraid too. I feel the same they might show she won against mj but by destroying herself completely and then she dies in rudra's arm finally confessing her feelings. If that happens i will cry buckets😭
Rudra will be once again thrown in darkness and maya will be lost for ever. Ye end nahi chahiye!
I want them to win and then a happy ending this time. Why always kill poor maya? Let her live !!
And.now sharing..few things i didnt like in episode
Rishi is so dumb! He can't see she is openly flirting with his elder brother.
Rudra doesn't ask for once..suddenly why there is so much change in her behaviour for him
Ananya is only the sane person right now..she asks the right question .very logical and precise!
Where is the secret surang to maya house?😆 because it was shows she has fingerprint lock! But here not only rudra but ankit too came in like its not her house but public garden😆
If there was mere few seconds gap in rudra exit and ankit entry..they must have seen each other. Or else..ankit might have definitely seen the whole kiss scene as front seat audience. But he didn't😲
And.. Whats wrong with the monologue? Maya is clearly not given enough time to express ..it was so much in hurry that we couldnt find what exactly she feels and get connected i am glad that was not the case for rudra atleastm
To be honest because lf lack of screen space to imp stuff like mj scenes, maya inner monologue, her emotional ride, mj suffering and past fear and their almost hit and miss scenes and also mayra romance. Have starting irking most of the fandom, including me.
The kiss was actually not the best scene of mayra.the cake scene was better. Writer either rush too much or take things too slow.. And poor editing and execution does more mess.
Its would have been additional if they Gave some time to buildup before kiss and not rush for it. It actually appeared like rudra used some spell and come to her room to kiss..he kissed and then ran away😆 what yar!
They could have shown rudra rishi and anu walking together to their car. As i believe rudra and anu came togther they might have come in same car. So there should be flash back of how he disliked rishi touch on maya. The slow moment of getting territorial was req for perfect set up. And then last but not least how he uses brain and punch 444 to her apartment lock and opens. And ankit might chori se see it and use it..and then the rest.. But nahi. Ghai hai..zabardasti!
Firstly I dont know about others but I love the speed of the show.. their frames move very swift and the story feels wholesome that way atleast for me..
Secondly coming to todays epi there were some glitches I terms of logic but I dont mind because when it comes to TV shows itna chalta hai..
Also we need to understand it's a thriller series and u wont always get what u expect.. it is supposed to revoke that thrill within u.. wether the show itself or the precap.. so if u r looking for a typical ITV show it wont happen.. everything is twisted here..
Maya is here to revenge using both the sons of MJ.. she wants to hurt both of them to get even with MJ.. With Rishi she even though has baited him with attraction she is not ok with his closeness.also Rishi is only playing on her finger tips..he has nothing to think much on his own and she knows that
With Rudra whatever she does comes back right with opposite force.. because he reasons and questions.. so every time she puts a bait on him, she herself is also getting caught because Rudra is truthful and honest to her... the truth and dare game, she kept trying to get the truth out of him..but when he came back and opened his wounds to her ,she couldn't stop herself too because those words of his are exactly what she is feeling too..
Rudra is not selfish like u said.. he does understand that getting Maya into his already messed up life will inflict more pain in her already painful life and he doesnt want that.. that has just set him off impulse think that marrying Ananya will shut his feelings for Maya.. but ofcourse that's not going to happen.. they might fight again to keep their feelings aside but the more they do that the more they will be drawn towards each other..
I feel Ananya as a character for me has shown a lot of strength.. she might open Rudra eyes to accept his love for Maya.. because she might be happy about the marriage part but when she will find that it's nothing to do with love from Rudra end she will question it.. as a friend she will find what is right for him.
Thank you for the beautiful analysis.🤗

@ Bold: Who says Rudra will be thrown into darkness? Maybe, through Maya and her revenge, he'll learn to live and be happy again. Her death may be a dark moment for him, but he might be able to finally come out of his shields and come closer to the old Rudra again.
@ Red: I wouldn't say dumb, just blind. He may see it, but he's probably telling himself it's a lie and Rudra is just Maya's boss. I do feel though that the CVs went through sudden drastic changes in the characters. The love angle between Maya and Rudra just came out of nowhere.
@ Blue: Somewhere I feel that either the CVs are being rushed or they are being forced to change the story to increase TRPs. The past week and a half or so has brought about many sudden changes. Rudra and Maya's kiss is the cherry on the top of this theory. The way they had developed the characters, there's no way this kiss could have happened so soon. Rudra would have pushed away at the last second and then we would have seen his anguish. But they rushed the whole thing. That's why I said that the kiss still seems out of place to me. But I'll accept the rest of the reactions around it. Because those still seem on character.

@ Red: I feel this can actually go two ways. The way Ananya's character was built up, your theory is possible. But the other option I see, based on the way she has been getting jealous over Maya-Rudra's equation is that the CVs may actually turn her grey. Make her possessive and show her join hands with MJ to destroy Maya.
Alternatively, a better option would be showing Rudra and Ananya getting married and then Ananya being used by MJ and, in her naivety (like with the press-confidentiality agreement track), Ananya will end up doing stuff to keep Maya away from Rudra, thinking that if she manages to keep Maya away, then her marriage will be fine. Then, as she learns the truth, she overcomes her own jealousy and helps Rudra and Maya come together while also assisting them in destroying MJ.

@bold - I can’t imagine that happening coz Rudra isn someone who is capable of being unfaithful to his wife even if doesn’t love her and might have feelings for another. Coz remember what Maya had said? He is the kind of a person who will never let go of ur hand after he takes it. And without MayRa the story won’t move forward. The probability of Ananya calling off the wedding is high coz she will not want her friend to be bound in a loveless marriage especially when he has feelings for another. If Rudra didn have feelings for anybody then she might be ok with it coz she believes her love for Rudra is enough for them both to be bound together. But Rudra having feelings for Maya changes the game altogether. Or she might turn grey like typical ITV shows third angles. Donno. Hoping it’s the former.
