Rewind and Review - Episode 4 - Page 6

Shaurya and Anokhi have finally met.

First, they were introduced to each other’s soch which both of them rubbished.

I like the way their differing thoughts were intriduced as a negation to each other.

Second, was the collision that earned him a sorry and her a label of “bloody pindu”. Can’t wait for meeting #3!!!

The bloody pindu automatic response to what he saw shows what type of opinion he has of people from small towns...

As Shaurya said to Shagun that he’ll find someone that will value him more than her education. Little does he know that he will learn to value his girl’s education over himself!

“Shaadi meri maksat nahi hai”. Anokhi’s dreams are simple. She wants education as a means to financial and social freedom. She’s watched her papaji control her mom and sister. She’s seen the freedom Aastha has due to her education and job. She knows society’s expectation for her. She has the fight. She would rather leave home than be controlled. Anokhi is admirable for her tenacity!!

My only problem with the marriage issue is Anokhi has a colored picture of marriage just like Shaurya has the same negative thoughts about working mothers/married women.

Shaurya’s indifference when he sees the Kapoors is chilling. He’s able to toss out someone that he had more than a two year relationship with. He’s so detached that he laughingly advices the Kapoors not to force marriage on Shagun. The words are wise but delivered mockingly.

This indifference could be the only way he can hide his innermost turmoil and not having anyone to confide in it is better to build a defense wall around himself. He is seen seeking tht support from BM, but the latter keeps harping about him being a Sabherwal and above everybody. BM has this idea that he is perfect and he does not want to disappoint her by telling her what he needs and misses. He is supposed to have everything best that life can offer.
Precap: Can’t wait for Aastha & Shaurya and Anokhi & Shaurya to come face to face!!

Thoughts?

First spark that will light the fire in Shaurya and awaken him to real life is to begin.

😍😍😍😍

That is the character growth. The reason I like shaurya's character more than others. He is not perfect but with flaws. He didn't change himself but change his thinking. I must say writers had done great job in writing his character and showing a proper character growth. I think kv also told in an interview he never felt like doing monotonous work. His character had many dimensions and kv portrayed it well. He also told that the casting director while approaching him for the role told him that this role would be one of the best role of his career. Indeed it is 👍

Lo and behold, the most unlikely people meet!!!!

So, it's sad to see parents of the daughter to come in and apologize for no fault of theirs or even champion for her Rishta... It's just sad.

Shaurya Sabarwal can take a stand, but did not, Shagun should have walked away forever then and there only. It did not ever make sense to look back.

The destiny of the work 'rubbish', so opposite in thoughts yet so similar in nature, two people who just had to meet. Loved how in an earlier episode Shaurya was told that the maker was making the girl for him with full dedication. Well, she did turn out to be a force to reckon with🤣

The scene that always has my heart, the collision❤️ It foreshadowed the entire story. She came into his life and turned his world around. His entire direction changed. She marked him/left a mark on him and he was lost. She made him feel. Oh I love this scene. Always.

Aastha...seeing her son in blood and flesh after 25 years...broke my heart too💔

Anokhi has a very small and suffocating vire of the world build by her thoughts but as any young person she has less value of the consequences of her actions or how they will impact people around her.

Today the way Shagun’s family was treated is disgraceful to any family marrying their daughter off and it highlights the age old traditions and soch the Sabherwals are stuck with. The irony being they run a prestigious education institution themselves where there are women lecturers.

I really loved the way how the words allow and permission are used by the leads.. the one and only Shaurya sabherwal uses it with all pride( in case of allowing Shagun to guest lecture) whereas used with utter disgust from the female lead. What a soch ki takkar it is!!

Tha Shaurya Sabherwal we see in these episodes.. now it’s easy to say as we’ve seen the future episodes. In Anokhis words after sindoor marriage..how can a grown up person be so blinded that he can’t feel the other persons pain? Can’t he see how Shagun and her family are trying their best to convince the Sabherwal’s to not break the rishta? How can someone be so rigid in love? It comes to me as the biggest shock that a person in love doesn’t give a second thought before giving up? It still baffles me. I really wanted Ss to ponder upon this after he realised his love for AB but alas..

Their first meeting at the award function..i love it so much. Their takkar in the first meet also symbolises their soch ki takkar. How contrasting their personalities are? Yet they are similar in the way they staunchly believe in the things they believe. Both used rubbish for different reasons for what they believe in.

The Kapoors coming to apologise to the Sabherwals- is it for their daughter's love or something else? They wanted this marriage at any cost. Why? Because Shagun will be happy? Did they think she would, after losing all her self-respect?

Shagun is still trying thinking Shaurya loves her enough to accept her with her conditions. But Mr. Sabherwal has been conditioned to think that there is nothing above him and his family name. And he doesn't need to compromise on anything.

The way he is still telling Shagun that he thought they were soulmates just because he thought SHE understood him and knew him. Isn't love/marriage a two-way street? Does he even love Shagun? Hope Shagun realized that soon.

The past few episodes have highlighted Anokhi's relationship with Aastha very well. She has also realized now that her Aastha M'am has gone through a lot to get to where she is. It could also be why the thought of marriage repulses her because she knows that her mentor wasn't happy in hers and had to choose her career over it. Her mom and sister are already examples of not being happily married. In contrast, Aastha M'am's strong position(in her view) cements this belief even further.

Aastha finally seeing her son in front of her is a treat to watch.

Of course, them using the word 'rubbish' in the exact opposite situations, the repeated mentions of 'allow' and 'permission', form the crux of their takraar. Everytime these words are used later on, we are made to feel their depth and why they are so significant to the story. Exactly in contrast to the way Shaurya nonchalantly throws them around even until the sindoor shaadi.

Episode 4:

And the soch ki takkar starts......

Shagun expecting Shaurya to support her while being humiliated by Sabherwals is almost every married woman.One fact which is noticeable is be it Mr.Bhalla as father or Mr.Kapoor as a father both are trying to plead respective groom to be's family.Girl from midde class or elite class...does not make difference here.

Shaurya's words to Mr Kapoor regarding the choices made by Shagun clearly states he never loved Shagun.If at all he ever felt love he would not be so rigid.Permission to be a guest lecturer in SIAC .....very considerate of you Shaurya...

Sabherwals are representing the typical patriarchial family minus Shaan.They want well educated,well mannered girl for their son but she has to sit at home.Fear of becoming inferior and getting dominated by women if they are independent is the reason for the years of rigidity in the society.My mother always says there is nothing called superiority complex....It is inferiority being masked up coupled with ego because of which wings of girl are cut from the begining.

ANOKHI AASTHA conversation is on point.Women are accustomed and conditioned to be dominated by men and society wants to remain same.Unless women take stand things wont change and gender inequality continues forever.

Shaurya already in a foul mood listens to Anokhi's speech and every word uttered by him is pinching him,taunting him questioning his ideology.He felt being ridiculed by words in recording and says Rubbish.Shaurya -1 Anokhi....yet yo say.

Anokhi listens to Shaurya's conversation and say Rubbish.Shaurya-1,Anokhi-1.

Students talking about Aastha inspite of her marital status is respected a lot even though they hail from a place where a single woman is frowned upon is great.Anokhi never paid attention to this fact even though she is Aasth's fav student.

The epic takkar happens and Shaurya meets Anokhi rather Anokhi dashes herself into Shaurya's life marking her presence.Sorry...Bloody pindu non significant words uttered by them but their hearts,destinies said hello to each other.

Aastha- a mother who left behind her 4 year old kid due to circumstances is now seeing him all grown up into smart sophisticated successful and respectable young man..Her eyes filled with emotions that have been bottled up since 25 years.

The cute boy is now handsome young man and a mother is feeling so proud of him.Stealing glances at him,doubtful whether he recognises her or not ...Deepa mam kudos to you the way you potrayed emotions.Babli and Ramaa worried about Anokhi's absence.

Oh how far he will travel…..Anokhi’s Shaurya defends her at every turn and speaks up in front of the Sabherwals for her. Who knew the potential was even there after this episode?

What are you talking about??🙄Are you guessing,of what might happen? I thought this was a brand new show 😁😁

I’m not capable of giving myself amnesia!! 😆

Looking back now that we know the story.., what an irony it is they both did the exact opposite to what they wanted..

Anokhi.., Shadi meri manzil nahin hain.. even though she was in denial she was very happy at the thought of being Mrs s sabherwal

Shaurya.. don’t remember exact dialogues but … main Aisi ladki se shadi karunga who will choose me over her career… lekin paagalon ki tarah kisse pyaar kar baitha?
