In my opinion, their entries were oddly rushed in order to get them to enter the show within the first weekend of telecast, but it meant that the entries of the 3 prime characters were so rushed that it didn't seem grand, and also looked forced to get all three of them in a single scene by the end of the first weekend.
IMO I think this second episode should have ended before the reincarnation track was about to start, and the reincarnation track could have started from beginning of next weekend. It would have given given them more time to show even a little bit more of aakesh-nageshwari, and also would have meant they would not need to rush the entries of the rebirth characters at all. They could have just started the reincarnation track fresh from next week.
Also like everyone else said, the nikaah sequence was so not impressive as a basis for the entry of the 3 leads. The whole thing looked silly.
IMO after the amazing first episode, this second episode was a major letdown from the moment they started the reincarnation because of how rushed it was.
Although sharad as per usual has good screen presence, I didn't so far actually enjoy his rebirth version of aakesh and I can't quite put a finger on it why. Not sure, but maybe, in an odd way, I just found the whole bad-boy biker gang appearance of sharad's character and the way he was talking/ things he was saying more silly and OTT compared to aakesh's khilji vibes weirdly. Like so far to me this version of aakesh (its obvious he is aakesh) seems like a downgrade from the pre-rebirth aakesh. Leaving aside aakesh's appearance, there was a subtlety in the negative/ grey attitude he presented, which appears more in your face with his rebirth. I just feel they tried almost too hard to make the rebirth aakesh appear bad with his behaviour and attitude in the nikaah.
Hope the reincarnation track is better from hereon, else I'm no too impressed with it so far after the excellent start to the show with the first episode.
