Hello guys! Aaj bahut dino baad I felt like writing an episode review...so here I am! It is a little long...but I couldn't help writing all of Vir's dialouges!
Episode begins with Purvi going to the Pujari's hut to get the pooja samagri. She senses someone following her, but doesn't see Anjali. Bhuri comes home to find Sakshi has escaped and she panics knowing that Prakashi will kill her.
Now comes my fav scene of the epi! Vir calls Purvi but she disconnects the phone & thinks to herself that just bcoz she is fasting for his long life, doesn't mean she is not upset with him. He calls again and this time she picks up. As soon as Purvi picks up Vir says, "Kyun bawari..." Vir says this so cutely ki main toh sirf 'Kyun bawari' ko ki 5-6 rewind karke sun rahi thi Anyway...moving on
Vir, "Kyun bawari, tanne baar baar phone karne ki koshish kar raha hoon, tu mera phone na utha rahi hai? Tere Tau ne tanne ye sikhaya hai ki tera aadmi saathvi baar phone kar tabhi uthana?"
Hayyyeee why in the world am I finding 'tera aadmi' so sexyyy!❤️☺️
Purvi replies that her Tau is very sensible and has taught her not to be close to people who don't love or trust her!
Vir says, "Dekh bawari, apne mann mein toh tu bhi jaanti hai ki main tere bahut izzat karu hoon. Tabhi toh baar baar tere ta baat karne ki main koshish kar raha hoon. Arre itna gussa toh Parvati Mata ne Shivji se na kiya jitna tu mere ta kar rahi hai!!!!! LOLZZ
Purvi replies that Shivji loved & trusted Pravati Maa, not like you..let it be
Vir says, "Na, aaj na chodoonga main (Is it only my gutter mind which conjured up images on hearing Vir say this, or are there others too??☺️). Aaj main faisla karke rahoonga. Tanne ke lag raha hai, main tere ta prem na karu hoon? Mera prem bhi Shivji ki tarah sola-aane sach hai."
Purvi says she doesn't trust him in this matter at all, "Aap sau bolte hai aur das tolte hai!" And she turns she find Vir in the hut. Vir, "Toh le, tere saamne aake khada ho gaya, tanne yakeen dilwane. Ib tolke dekh le."
Purvi is in full bhaav-khana mood so says abhi bhi yakeen nahi aaya.
Vir comes closer, puts his hand around her waits & pulls her against himself asking "Ib aaya yakeen ki na?" Purvi looks away in a huff so Vir cups her face ever so gently and kisses her forehead and asks "Ib?"
By now, Purvi madam knows that uski bhalayi iss mein hai ki usse yakeen na aaye😆 So she smiles but shakes her head. Vir goes on to kiss her on both eyes and finally as he moves to kiss her on the lip, Madam sharma jati hai n hugs him instead! Vir smirks and out his arms around her and both just stand in each other's arms, smiling in contentment...such a peaceful moment it is! And then...Purvi comes out of her daydream and chides herself ki aaise sunhere sapne dekhna band karde!!
Just then Anjali locks the hut from outside & sets it on fire with kerosene. Prakashi & Anjali are celebrating their victory when Bhuri calls to inform that Sakshi has escaped. All three of them start searching for her and she is shown to be avoiding them.
Here Purvi tries to call Vir but he doesn't pick up. Later when he sees missed calls he rushes to the hut, breaks the door down in true hero style and goes in. Purvi is relived to see him and rests her head on his shoulders when he comes near...split second scene, but a nice one! Then PurVir get out of the hut and the entire hut collapses behind them.
Purvi is about to faint when Vir catches her...visually very well framed scene...PurVir looking into each others' eyes and a fire blazing in the background. As they try to move away Purvi's mangalsutra gets stuck in Vir's kurta and there is a flashback of the ghat scene!! Vir says, "Yo jod toh pehle se hi bandh gaya hai, itni aasani se na toote ga!" Purvi tries to free the mangalsutra while Vir is back to his fav hobby - bawari ko taadna😆 He just stands there doing nothing while the poor girl is fumbling with the buttons!! And finally when he deigns to help her, bhaisaab ends up breaking the mangalsutra!!! 😆
As Purvi thanks Kanhaji that she did not let the beads fall down, Vir says, "Tu bhi bawari ki bawari hi rehwegi. Itni chinta mangalsutra ki hai, aur pehnane wale ki? Usse bhi maaf karde, jisne yo pehnaya hai!" Kuch bhi bolo...bande me swag kuut kuut kar bhara hai...dekha hai kisiko itni attitude se maafi maangte huye
Then Vir goes ahead for the pooja & Purvi says she will follow in a moment. Purvi looks at the burning hut & realises that someone tried to kill her. She is also grateful that Vir came at the right moment otherwise she would have died. But she is still upset with him as well. So she prays to God to help her decide whether to forgive Vir or not.
The epi ends on Purvi colliding with Sakshi & recognizing her as the khandar lady.
Since ITV is so high on symbolism, a few pointers for us - the mangalsutra breaks the moment Sakshi is shown to reach there, but she is also shown to go away, so we have hope! Also for me this scene signifies Vir as a husband being torn in 2 directions, getting caught between Sakshi & Purvi but in the end jaise Purvi ne woh manke bikharne nahi diye, she will also keep Vir & her relationship together!
After a long time I thoroughly enjoyed PurVir scenes...the dialouges, the banter, the body language, the swag & attitude...everything was perfect!
