Finally got some time to sit down and watch all the episodes this week. Shaadi ka ghar sach me bohut busy hota hai yaar😆😊 Couldn't keep up with all the updates and discussions during mishsbir's shaadi week😒 but all the pics on insta and twittr were soo beautiful and royal.
So here's my take on the episodes from Monday to Friday this week:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Monday 17th:
1. Firstly a big round of applause for the Maheshwari family for sticking to the core problem - that Kuhu and Kunal are responsible for their own faults👏👏 No matter how much Kuhu kept repeating that all this divorce chaos is because of Mishti, BP, BM and even Varsha and Shaurya were not buying it one bit They consistently kept asking why she hid the truth from them, and all Kuhu could say was "Mishti knew everything"🤣
-God knows what bubble world Kuhu still lives in, even after Kunal breaking their marriage truth on their wedding night, Kuhu still refused to pop out of her "everything is awesome" bubble and continued to keep faith in Kunal one day turning around to give her the attention she craves. It was not until, post-leap Kuhu finally decided to focus on herself with career, and stopped believing in Kunal and lost hope in their relationship.
-Kuhu still feels that the bubble can be mended carefully, if she tells the family slowly after signing the divorce papers. But like BP and Mishti said before, no matter how hard you try to hide a truth with lies, the truth will find a way out.
2. Kuhu's anger on Mishti for sneaking around behind her back despite all her curt warnings is completely justified. The slap was otp and unnecessary, but from Kuhu's pov we knew it was coming. The makers had nicely built up Kuhu's inner turmoil and dilemma in the previous few episodes. However, Kuhu's illogical blame on Mishti for all her problems, is just the beginning for the rest of the family and Abir to see how seriously damaged the sister's relationship really is.
-Kuhu's character had the chance to have a really well written character graph and growth after mishbir break-up. She could have been the sister who shared the same broken heart with Mishti. But sadly, the writers never pick up on these turning points, but rather continue pulling all the progress in reverse back to square 1.
-But I guess this track is necessary for the Mah family and Abir in particular to see the degree of strain and damage between the sister's bond. Everyone has underestimated the level of broken and burned bridges between Mishti and Kuhu.
3. As usual Abir remains a silent observer until he finds that things are about to run out of control. Although we all wanted Abir to step up and defend Mishti against Kuhu's illogical blames...he was absolutely right in staying quiet, he knows these family dynamics so well and understands that if he began rebuking Kuhu infront of mah family for Mishti, it will only worsen the situation more. Abir already knows that Mishti is not at fault, and he could see how the mah family was focusing on Kuhu and Kunal's mistakes, so he didn't need to justify Mishti. Instead he got the chance to analyse the situation and see a glimpse of Kuhu's true emotions in regards to Mishti.
Once he saw Kunal owning up to his fault and confessed he doesn't want to let Kuhu go, he became the big brother and the support his nanko needed. Just a week back, Kunal became the little brother pillar of support for Abir when he was on the brink of losing Mishti. So now Abir takes the responsibility to help Kunal out to not lose hope. And kya buttering kiya tha😆👍🏼He advertised Kuhu so highly; Abir would be the best family lawyer! 🤣
If Mishti's alternate profession is CBI detective, then Abir should definitely be a lawyer for family matters😆 bonus: Shah is a real qualified law graduate👍🏼 so no wonder Abir is so good at defending and fighting for his family🤗
4. Mishti and Kuhu's fallout in the market was actually kind of funny😆 All the claims Kuhu blamed Mishti of, is actually a mirror reflection of herself. She accuses Mishti of wanting to be the "rani" of RV house and push Kuhu out. When in reality, it's Kuhu who wants to remain as the centre of attention in RV house as the only bahu, and wants to keep Mishti out. Kuhu then accuses Mishti of being jealous of her happiness🤣Another clear mirror reflection.
-Seriously Mishti, it's about time you stop caring so much about Kuhu, just let her manage her own life on her own terms. Often the distance you give, will actually help mend the strained ties. Only when you distance yourself from her, will Kuhu gradually realise how clueless she is without a mature sister like you. Just let her go.
5. And now we come back to our beloved villain Meenakshi Rajvansh😆 Meenu has found her next target and emerged out of her bechari hibernation. Even if Meenu genuinely didn't know about the kuku divorce, now she has the next best thing to play with - Kuhu's insecurities and hatred for Mishti. I'm sure Meenu will now take advantage of the sister's feud to somehow fulfil her goal of keeping Mishti out of RV house.
-As usual all of Benba's plan will work in mishbir's favour😆👍🏼 Anything Meenu tries to do now, to keep Mishti away from RV house will have to result in mishbir living separately in their own home Bring it on benba😎
6. Okay one serious question: How did the maheshwari let go of this huge matter so easily? Kuhu clearly said that Kunal was forced for the marriage, that he didn't want to sit at the mandap, then Kunal clearly declares that Meenu forced him to agree for the rishta and marriage, and Abir brought him to the mandap. Why is no one questioning Meenakshi about this?🤪Answers to these questions would solve so many open-ended issues; Why Kuku have been lying and acting like they're happily married? Why and how Kunal was forced?
7. One more missing puzzle piece: I still find it very unsettling that no one in the maheshwari family knows that PARUL is KUNAL'S real mother🤔. At least now that Kunal is whole-heartedly accepting Kuhu, it's the maheshwari's right to know that Kunal too is an illegitmate child. Meenu made Mishti make a big deal about Kuhu's real birth, but no one knows Kunal's birth truth. What's stopping them from telling the mah the truth now?
8. Last but not the least: Abir's beautiful shayari to cheer up and motivate Mishti❤️ BP's sincere request to Abir to go back for Mishti is so endearing😳 because he knows and trusts that Abir can take care of his daughter in these times of stress/troubles🤗
The shayari encompassed all the elements of mishbir's basic bond of friendship and companionship. Mishbir 1.0 who were first best of friends and supported/guided each other during times of difficulty🤗👍🏼
-special mention to Rhea's expressions during the shayari recital. When Abir recited this line: "Har kisiko khud hi ladna padega", Mishti's face expressed the exact emotion of exhaustion that she has been facing her entire life ever since her childhood. Rhea perfectly emoted that feeling of, 'I've been fighting my own war for so long now, it feels like it never ends. I don't know how much longer I can keep fighting, I'm losing strength.' This poor girl has been facing family issues and the title of 'breaking families/houses' her entire life, she's been trying to fight that every step of her life and there a constant backlashes. That's where the rest of Abir's shayari perfectly balances her out. He encourages her to live in the moment of their happiness together, gives a cute little twirl and asks her not to worry Immediately Mishti smiles with Abir's adorable gestures, that's why these two are so made for each other❤️ They know exactly how and when to be each other's friend or lover❤️
**Quick mention for Shaurya today👍🏼 Finally the dad in him spoke out and surprisingly he was very practical even with his emotions. If I remember right, Shaurya in yrkkh parent show, was quite an emotionally impulsive character. He often lost his temper when it came to his family members and it was nice to see that feature again here. Shaurya was a very protective and loving brother to akshara and a passionate father to ananya.👍🏼 He deserves to get more focus especially during Kuhu's matters.
