Nice review AY.
It was a better episode along the lines of yesterday. Some parallels and got to see the duvidha of the Tripathis more clearly today.
Loved the brief Sundar-Imlie convo where Sundar tried to stop her. Rupi coming along to say the same, wait for Adi to return, then the all imp line of Imlie not fighting for her Haq, giving up so easily, calling her jhalli twice. Aww.... 🤗
The bidaai was senti, with Imlie taking the blessing of the elders, the beti jaisi ladki leaving the house, with the zombie bahu's entry. Liked how Pankaj came to Imlie's defence and Apu was feeling gulity in sending her away.
2 sisters and their reaction/welcome so very different. malini was cold, robotic, almost forcing herself through the motions while Imlie was filled with trepidation, unknown territory without her BS ka kavach. Praying to SM.
Anu's taunts n intents were expected, she was not going to play nice with Imlie and we all know about Dev/Dadi who are spineless...yellow bellied livers...
So Imlie will bear all the taunts, cry silently like she did when she first came as a bride to the T household, with Adi taunting her, throwing the invalid rishta at her face ever so often. Now it is going to be Anu's turn to heap on the insults, reminding Imlie of her place every minute. Her true intents came out as she wants to spy on AdiLie and get proof. Both maa-beti on a jasoosi spree and let us see what happens of their efforts. Malini does not have to wait in limbo for 20 years to know the truth unlike her mom.
Loved seeing the restless Adi whose eyes were only searching for Imlie from the second he stepped in the doorway. The samosas were for her defo.. not jalebis. 😆 He has totally Friend Zoned Malini now and is giving her saath as her best buddy only. What a chop for didi.
The way he was sitting on the sofa next to her, awkwardly, trying not to be too close to Malini.... BS is not wearing his Watch still... Imlie must have it. Missing for a few episodes now. Nice detail by the writers. 😆
The taunts that he gave to Nishu, Apu.. was too good. Enjoyed them and didi's reactions... I liked how Adi was taunting and Aparna was making eyes at him, gritting through her teeth that 'bahut pyaar se lekar gaye hain'.... going to see more such scene. Again that brief baap-beta convo was nice with some well meaning advice from PT on how this 'bacchi' needs only Adi next to her.
Nishu and his grand HM tickets to Kerala... 🤣BS no reaction while Ms.Robot did the talking.. no time to go. The dawning of the truth that they are so different for Malini and the token protests to her mom about treating Imlie well.
Anu has another reason for wanting Imlie under her roof, to bring out the truth from Dev on PD. It is a double edged sword she is heaving and in the end, she is going to be shattered totally as her life will crumble along with that of her loved daughter. She has invited ruin by playing nasty with Imlie and Adi/Tripathis.
Hope the college scenes are lighter and we see the feisty Imlie back soon. While the stage is being set for the grand revelation and the fallout of that... hope we see some Adilie moments and not a blink, miss scene.
