Meri nazar to Kunal ke weirdly painted teeke se nahi hat rahi thi #OCDtriggered (I do actually have mild OCD. Not using it to describe my fixation on the teeka thing #justbeingpoliticallycorrect).
Getting back to the episode, the KuKu scene was so cute. I agree with all of your observations and I know you've all said it but I'll repeat it to calm my excited KuKu heart. I was content with it because I wasn't expecting any other KuKu scene for today. Episode shuru hi wo scene dekhne ke liye kiya tha.
Oh Kunal!!! He was so insecure after all the betrayals and rejections that he tried to sabotage the marriage at every chance he got so he wouldn't have to face another heartbreak. And he got surprised at every turn that he wasn't going to be rejected by Kuhu, that she was going to be there with him till eternity if he only let her. I love that their story is so slow that I get to see them take one step at a time otherwise all we get to see is the usual "hawaayein chalne lagti hai" trope. I love that I get to see them make the small efforts for each other. Oh and how I love this new scared, irritated, surprised but oh so in love #KuhuKaKunal. The way he went from "g..g..g..gift" to "f..f..fi..finally shaadi ho gayi" in Fridays' episode to now actually being able to express his disbelief that someone could like him so much that it made it possible for him to able to break his walls and like them back. And last but not the least, "tum sikhaogi to mai sab seekhne ko taiyaar hu"❤️
I loved seeing Kuhu be so happy and finally feel a bit of security. I hate the fact that the security will come at the cost of her relationship with Parul. Hopefully, it won't be completely destroyed and she will realise that Parul has started to become important in Kunal's life. Is it cute or cute that the only time Kunal has ever pondered over someone's advice, that has come from Kuhu and Parul (and also, Abir but let's focus on these 2 women for now)?
Coming to chaashni me doobi Meenu🐉 showing her Big Ben🐲 colours, I knew it ki ye kuch gadbad karegi because saas-bahu actually sharing a healthy relationship is impossible in ITV. Plus it was anyway too good to be true and out of character. I'm saying it's OOC because as shown from the start, she always wanted an uneducated bahu who would do as she says and doesn't have any ambitions or a life of her own. These 2 sisters are far far away from that dream of hers.
I realised today that even though we've said in the past that she is the only character representing female solidarity (which was based on previous lies), she only wants other women to follow her and obey her. She took Parul in but made her a servant. She orders Nidhi around like she controls her life but these two sisters can't be controlled. The only way left for her to maintain her position of power is to manipulate them so they don't team up against her.
Sorry for this jumbled up thoughts se bhara post but I hope I was able to get my point across. I know I ended it abruptly. Couldn't think of anymore words🙈🙊.
