I don't mind a few lollipops and this one at least makes sense. It's PD not Delhi, it's in a private moment not surrounded by people, almost died again. Had all those not been the case, the hand grab would have been absolutely out of place. Instead it just felt like a continuation of something the show has shown this whole time. PD is almost a dream world for Aditya. He's more open here when he lets himself be, and this trip around he's literally letting himself run free or as much as he can handle. He might also have felt a little relieved that "challo she took her exam and did well". Cuz of course all he'd cared about was her padhai...
Facing his alter ego after facing death and not once but twice in the span of a week (seriously though this show has more near-death experiences than any other. Hasn't it been like 3 months since the two met?). People usually do some reflecting after that.
I'm a little annoyed by the editing of certain scenes, but I was ok with this one. The cuts to the office kind of broke the moment, but then this isn't supposed to be the big realization right. It's just him, being the guy we've been told he is but haven't seen much, the one who values and respects the truth. And cutting to the office can be an interesting editing technique to display how his lies are unraveling. Kind of a 'coming to terms' of the truth in more ways than one? (AKA self-realization as well as kismet finally taking the reigns).
It was definitely unexpected though. I've given up trying to figure out what's coming next this is just going to be a crazy ride. 😃
@bold: Yep, that much we can all agree on😆.
You do make a good point that PD always reveals an Adi who becomes more free and expressive with all the emotions he generally holds back.....but I guess some of us can be forgiven for being thrown off by the sindoor scene since usually his emotional outbursts are generally not in this vein....it did feel like a deliberate attempt to add a romantic scene all of a sudden😆. To date, even their scene of having slept off close to each other while studying didn't have a romantic connotation....it had more of that soulful vibe to it.....but today him holding her hand like that conveyed a deliberate shift into attraction more than their usual scenes. Maybe the intent was only to show his yearning for her again....but the scene appeared to convey more than that.
I actually would have liked the office scene if the intercuts weren't so abrupt back and forth....the mystery was building up nicely about how Adi's lies about PD could unravel😆....but they did dilute the impact of the Adi-Imlie scenes a bit sadly.
