Yeah I hope we don't get full romance between them, that would be tooooooo fast for me. After the whole Kangaan kaand happend the enemies thing between them disappeared. And that is good step forward but they don't have to be all lovey dovey right away. I get the whole physical attraction thing, you don't have to like a person to be attracted to him/her. I think they both have to sort things out for them self before they are going to get romantic. I don't mind some little, eye lock moments or something like that. So I also hope we go a few steps back.
Ladies, had to leave abruptly as I lost connection on the road. Going to catch up on the missed pages but will be in and out😃

I think there was a discussion many EDTs back, about being physically involved without emotional attachment. ITV would never do such a track, but that would be really cool.
But I guess if you have know someone your entire childhood, it might be confusing to be physically involved too, I guess. That is why I have a hard time believing the generic romantic scene checklist would be effective for ShiVi.
They can go that route and all the phans will be happy as it is perfect VM material and they can just see the scenes in isolation. But for me, as I am seeing the show as a whole, I would lose connect with the characters. 😐
For example, the kheer scene. If it was two strangers, it makes sense to feel a thrill of feeding the other person, and eating from their cups. But these teo have grown up together- how could it possibly be thrilling? It's probably business as usual- that was why Raavi was nonchalant. And Shiva was probably staring at her because he was trying to process how she stood by the family, both at home and in front of the store, and how she stood up to Maami. I am not sure her feeding him even registered as weird.
Don't know, let's see what the makers and phans have in mind. We are probably going to get the usual tropes, but I hope makers sprinkle in something that is different and uniquely ShiVi

That would be really cool!
@bold yess I think that would be very confusing! So I get the whole hot/cold reaction Raavi has, cause she feels something, but she doesn't want to feel it. And sometimes when your shields are not up it can affect you. So thats why I liked her reaction today, not looking at him, saying that's she is tired and want to sleep. she tries to block the attraction. Or the way Shiva walked away when she was feeding him, it was also a reaction to avoid the attraction. If they let Shiva smile a little less at her that would also help 🤣
The whole keer scene was okay for me not great, they could have skipped it and put in a little conversation between them. It doesn't have to be a deep conversation, but something simple, like are you feeling okay?
@italic, I hope sooooo!!

Regarding the kheer scene, the two have grown up together, but Shiva has always treated her as an enemy, so he would have never let her feed him. This is the first time he is letting her do it, and that too because she is his wife. He gives a lot of respect to the relationship between them.
At this point it looks to me like Raavi has mere physical attraction towards Shiva without any emotional attachment 😆 it would help if she takes a few seconds to introspect over her feelings 🤪
Shiva had just started realizing that he feels some liking for her
I want Shiva to be more intense/brooding and less smiley smiley.. this doesn't seem to be his character at all 😆
