@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. ❤️
@ bold: Sam I think that is the beauty of any form of art, everyone has their own version and understanding of the same piece of work. I loved the way both you and Ria expressed your thoughts and analyzed the episode and I am so glad that we have this AT to discuss our different points of view amicably.
I said earlier today that I have no problem with KuKu arguing but for once, I just wanted the fight about them and their feelings not about any third person. It would have been much more realistic for me if KuKu were fighting because they thought the other person didn't support or care about their feelings or decisions. (Something similar to what we saw after Kuhu came back from the hospital. They were talking about THEM, not anyone else) But of that is expecting too much from the parallel lead of ITV family drama. 😆
@blue: I would love to see Kunal and Varsha's scenes. They are really underused in the show.
#chipKuku !! Love this new hashtag
