Round 1: Meal time. Beautiful brings a plate for Imli when she’s in her corner. She’s not hungry bec food was not sent by Sr Ts in the family. Enters Sath dene wala hubby Adi gets there and takes the plate and tells Imli they are going to eat saat me. At the table Imli is reluctant to sit unless invited by Sr Sasurals. Instead all ssat log (3 young Adi and Imli supporters told to walkout with the grump and angry 4 Sr Ts). Adi didn’t care just sat there and continued to eat. Got to keep his energy levels up to take on the Sr Ts. His “don’t care for your nautanki” attitude is admirable. Sr T immaturity is ridiculous!
score - Adi 1- Sr T - 0 they didnt eat either.
Round 2: Adi tries to reason with his parents that he’s guilty of not disclosing his first wedding so why are they blaming Imli for his actions? Aparna falls back on the najaayaz and gandha koon labels to attack Imli yet again and defends her stance- She only accepted Imli bec she thought she was poor, helpless, weak, innocent and honest but Imli took advantage of the family and she’s illegitimate too. She can stay on as maid not as bahu.
Adi confronts Aparna - until yesterday Imli was family to you today bec of DC’s cheating you are blaming Imli for her existence? The reason he became a journalist was to confront and expose society’s flaws. He didn’t think he would have to take on the same within his own home. He promises he will give his wife her due rights come what may starting now. PT looks nervous at audacious Aditya’s attitude.
Score 2 - Aditya 2 Sr Ts 0
Round 3: as long as Imli stayed in her corner you were ok now she will stay with him in his room and share all that’s his. Imli holds him back and asks if all that is yours is mine why isn’t your family now mine. Until they accept her she won’t enter his room. Adi has a solution to that too. He decides to join his wife in the corner she’s been staying at since she came to Ts house. Sr Ts traumatized that their beta is sleeping on the comforter by his wife.Adi keeps pushing against their limits and it’s fun to watch.
Score: Adi 3 Sr T - 0
An intermission from the rounds with Imli visiting Dadda Satyakam and mother Meethi. Imli’s lie about being accepted after Adi told Sr T the truth is busted when Meethi decides to meet Imli’s sasural with sweets. Imli cries on her mother’s shoulder. Meethi gives her wise advice to understand the sasural POV and win the test of sasural acceptance like she always wins at everything. Dadda reinforces Imli can accomplish anything she sets out to do. She could use some inspiration and support from her loved ones in this situation.
Surpising Adi let her out of his sight after Sr T attempt to throw her out. Did he tell her to return to Ts house after she met her parents and not go to PD with them?
Aparna and Radha walk out as if all that nautanki didn’t happen in their home. They want to have Pallavi much dikayi. Does that mean Adi will get a chance to introduce his wife to the neighbors?
Imli wants to go with AT and RT to the temple. she questions them if they could accept her as a beti why not accept her as Bahu?
As usual AT won’t accept PD wedding. is it bec she couldn’t attend? Imli swears on Sita Mother and explains she and Adi attempted to walk away from each other many times but they couldn’t fight destiny. Now that she her suhagan rights she will respect her rights for life.
precap: Adi stood up to Aparna and stated with conviction that Imli and he will attend the event/pooja together as a couple or he won’t attend. Adi holding Senior Ts feet to the fire is fun to watch. Bring it on!
Angry, audacious Adi fighting against his family to give Imli her rights as his wife is lot of fun to watch.
