@Aqua: They definitely could have been clearer about how the Mishti-Kunal and Abir-Kuhu fronts formed, and the editing was super choppy, but I think there are some things we can read into their responses.

Abir wants to overthrow Meenu's system because of fundamental disagreements with its ideology (his motivations are the simplest).

Kuhu has diligently worked her way up in the system, felt that that counts for nothing now that Mishti is in the house and getting unfair preference (haar, business, poojas) and therefore wants to fight back from a place of disillusionment. Why should I uphold a system that doesn't support me?

Mishti desperately needs the system to work and validate her so she loses the tag of ghar-todnewali but she is fixed on a definition of "ghar" that doesn't necessarily make sense with Meenakshi in the equation.

Kunal is forever caught between accepting change and trying to hold on to a model of the system that worked before. Abir keeps telling him the old model is trash and Meenu counters with the conviction that change is destructive and he just keeps swinging between the two extremes at the slightest provocation.

I am also going to come out and say it. I think a major part of Kuhu's reaction yesterday was sexual frustration. 😛😆

@Bold - Hell yeah!! 💯

I had gotten Abir, Mishti and Kunal's motivations. The one I hadn't was Kuhu and now, I do see what you're saying. It's so ironic that I was the one saying a few days back that we have understood Kuhu completely and I am the one who couldn't understand her motivations. Lololololol 😂😂

You didn't have to give me that visual. Ab kaise sou??🙆🏻‍♀️ It's morning. I can hear the birds outside. I should probably stick around for the last episode before the break. I'll try and take a small nap (lolz😂).

Also, if y'all didn't know, India is under lockdown for 21days from now on, because #1dayJantaCurfew was a massive fail, with people coming out on streets to do garba and what not🤯, so no new episodes till April end and I'll be at home helping out mom and daadi. It's like a forceful family reunion. I don't know how all of us will survive with everyone at home. I somehow miss and don't miss hostel days. Super grateful that I'm getting good food but sad that my independence and freedom is gone. 😕

Oh is it the last episode today? I had no idea.

And I had no idea about the lockdown. I have almost no ties to India since all my family is here and I don't follow Indian news regularly. People were out on the streets during the curfew? That's highly irresponsible. It is better to stay home for a few days so that this nightmare gets over faster. Hope everything gets better soon.

Not sure if there's going to be an episode but there's no information anywhere so who knows?

It's probably the last episode because according to their stories, they were all shooting at the resort before going on break, so they haven't shot iske aage.

Thank god y'all don't live in India. It's been a mess here. This country is being run on WA, it seems, and the PM is hailed as some savior/god and not as a public servant. It's just a job title and people are all gaga completely forgetting that we live in a democracy and not monarchy. I should shut up now because it's probably against the rules.

EDIT: The episode will probably be put on hotstar if and when it airs on TV and I am gonna go sleep now. Good night, I guess.

Good night ❤️

Yeesh. Just saw the episode, and what an upleasant note to end on before the break. 😳

However, without the weight of being the last episode, I actually really liked it. The conflicts were well-drawn out, with Abir being equally frustrated with both sisters and their stubborn refusal to see where they went wrong, and Kunal coming into his own as the mature adult in the situation. Thanks to Abir and Meenu, the chokro has some experience in conflict management, and he's putting it to good use. 👍🏼

Kuku, despite the fact that they were disagreeing through out the entire episode, gave me such married vibes. They fight but they stick together -- I love the pheels of Kuhu being worried about Kunal overworking and Kunal being flippant about his own wellness. I still think Kuhu has a valid point about Kunal doing everyone's share of the work, and getting taken for a ride and Kunal doesn't necessarily get to decide unilaterally that that's the way it's going to be, but she needs to find more productive ways to communicate this.

You can kind of see how the story is going to pan out -- if you watch the show through the Mishti lens, it will look like Mishti's prophecy comes true and Kuhu drives a wedge between the brothers, but if you see her POV, then the wedge will ultimately prove to make their relationship stronger because it'll bring out their underlying issues. Abir and Kunal's relationship is plenty messed up in its own right. It's only working now because Kunal put his feelings aside to get Abir's life on track. Again, like he explained to Mishti, he backed down. The only difference in Kuhu and Mishti's equation is that neither of them backs down.

It's interesting (and honestly a little misogynistic) that the brothers see each other's wives as extensions of them. Kuhu is not allowed to have problems with Mishti because Mishti is Abir's wife and Mishti saying she won't go with Kuhu means that she is telling Abir not to go with Kunal. The sisters see it very differently -- they have a problem with each other but not each other's husbands, whom they see as separate individuals, which if you ask me is much healthier, long term despite the current tension.

I felt a little bummed after the episode, only because the nitpicking of Kuhu's character to such extents. So far Kuhu has cause two blunders and rude statements, yet she is being reprimanded by Kunal, Abir, and Mishti. Whereas all three of them have created blunders of their own and have not even gotten an earful.

This unfair treatment of the characters bugs me alot, why is Kuhu's behavior constantly reprimanded whereas Kunal gets away with a sham marriage, without even having any consequences. I mean the Maheswaris didnt even give it a second thought.

Abir gets away with breaking a rishta at the last minute without a clear reason. I mean yes BP put him through a lot to get back with Mishti.

Mishti gets away with the Jungle fiasco, almost marrying Nanu despite multiple telling her to back off if her heart is not in it.

Yet here is Kuhu is who is constantly being put down, without anyone asking her what the actual problem is. To me the reason Kuhu continue to say Mishti ki wajah se is because she sees that both Kunal and Abir have been leaning towards Mishti, she thinks if she says it enought they will beleive her and be on her side.

BM is there for Mishti to talk it all out, but who does that for Kuhu? Varsha? I havent seen her actually have a decent conversation with Kuhu that is not a lecture. I may be biased toward Kuhu, but the thing is if you constantly tell a person they are wrong and lecture them in the name of conversation, their feelings will continue to be repressed and become anger. As of now I see Kuhu being reperessed if someone does not step in, she will become Meenu's pawn.

Kunal- he surprises me when he shows immense understanding of how a husband wife relations works but only for MA. Yet he is constantly taking Kuhu for granted.

Kuhu please just direct your anger at the right place, towards Kunal. Your love for him is immense, you have shown it. Now let him do some work in this relationship, if he can work towards his relationship with Mishti for Abir. He can definitely put some effort in KuKu, if he values it enough.

Even now I see the old Kunal, for who its first about Abir, then his Maa, his business, and whatever is left over is for Kuhu.

To me it seems like Kuhu is constantly being pushed into darkness, because no one is extending their hand to help.

And I am back to square one #KuKuSeperation!

@Ria: It's so interesting that you came away from the episode with such different feelings. I felt like for once, everyone was called out fairly for their individual mistakes. Abir tried to get Mishti to acknowledge that her intentions don't always negate the results of her actions (that comparison with Meenu was brutal but so on point!), Kuhu got called out for escalating the fight way beyond what was necessary, and Abir got called out for running away from conflict instead of actually working through it.

I also really like how Kuku are progressing so for now I am on team #chipKuku 😆 It was great to see that their conversation just kept continuing through all the other stuff that was happening. And I know this is super tiny, but I loved that when Abir apologised for talking to Kuhu like that, Kunal didn't negate his apology and say, aap ne kuch galat nahi kaha (which honestly, I expected). He said it's okay and that they all said unnecessary things in anger, which means that he was agreeing that the way Abir spoke to Kuhu was not cool. I also loved the way he kept checking on her as he was talking to Abir.

Basically, I found Kunal's patience and balance very attractive in today's episode.

Whenever this show does end up coming back, can we please actually get a Kunal/Varsha scene? I can't think of anyone better suited to guide him through his Meenu/Parul crisis right now, especially as she understands Meenu's feelings to such a minute degree. Plus, it would gain him so many brownie points with Kuhu if he went to her mum for advice. ❤️

Today's episode again confirmed that Kunal is not meant to a husband or be in any kind of romantic relationship. He will never be able to understand and love Kuhu because he never sees anything past his brother, mother and now his bhabhi. The way Kunal talked to Kuhu in the episode was showed that Kuhu has no value in his life. In real life, I don't think an educated and independent woman would actually tolerate that aggressive tone from her husband. This is not the 1920s. ( It might have just the way Ritvik said the dialogue but it sounded really aggressive to me)

Today's episode was all about proving Kuhu wrong. Kunal, Abir, Mishti everyone was saying how immature Kuhu is behaving. But I am not even surprised. Like I have said before, this track is to make Kuhu's character almost negative by isolating her from everyone. This track is definitely heading towards Kunal dumping Kuhu for his brother and his bhabhi. Since I have zero expectations for this couple, I was not even disappointed with the scenes we got.

Since this was the last episode before the break, the fresh episodes will most probably air only in May. I am hoping to get over this couple by that time and not have even think about them 😆But again, I will not get to enjoy Kaveri's acting if I don't continue watching it. 😭 I am so confused 😆

I also just finished watching the episode, and while Kunal has definitely grown, he is nowhere near a good place in his relationship with Kuhu (and yes, I'm saying this with yesterday's smoking scene fresh in my mind). Did anyone catch how hypocritical he was being this whole episode? He said that a husband and a wife should function as "one unit" in relation to Abir and Mishti but then right after that proceeds to say to Kuhu, "I don't care if you're coming or not, but I'm leaving." Huh? He later says that Abir and Mishti should enjoy a little alone time because they are a "newly married couple", and completely overlooks the fact that he too, is newly married. Kunal needs to be slapped awake and told that whatever "marriage" he was in for all these months was not the real deal. It might've been for him, at least for a short period of time, but it wasn't real for Kuhu, and rightfully so.

I liked that the roles between the brothers were reversed this time, and Kunal was telling Abir to bring Mishti back. But if Kunal can recognize how much Mishti loves his brother, why can't he recognize that same love and concern his own wife has for him? Furthermore, it makes me wonder, would he follow his own advice if the same thing happened between him and Kuhu?

The underlying theme of this whole track is highlighting the general bandaid tendency that I referred to earlier in the old AT, whether this tendency be Kunal's, Abir's, Naanu's, or the Maheshwari's. Through all of this, no one has bothered to ask Mishti or Kuhu what the real problem is. I lived for the conversations in which Kuhu would bare her heart and soul to Kunal pre-marriage. Why can't that happen again? And what sort of memory loss does Kunal have? Does he seriously not remember anything him and Kuhu talked about when they were "just friends"?

I really wish Varsha had talked with Kuhu today just like BM talked to Mishti. Kuhu needs to have a wholesome conversation with just her mother, no Jasmeet "narada harkats" or BM lecture interference.

And for the love of god, can someone PLEASE ship Jasmeet to London? Oh wait, I forgot. #Corona

@ bold 1: Ahahahaha I see what you did there 😂😂

@ bold 2: YES PLEASE. I didn't even think of that! That would be so so wonderful.

Good morning people!

I am up because as mentioned, there is a puja at home. God! I am so sleepy!!

Anyway, haven't seen the episode yet but you all seem to have such differing opinions. I'm actually excited to watch it now because of this very reason. I got a different vibe with each post and that hasn't happened in a very long time. This is going to be super interesting now.
