When Pallavi Jhadofies Raghav for arranging photoshoot without telling her, Jaya is so enjoying her Don beta getting lectured by her Daughter-in-law. I absolutely adored the smile of Jaya during the whole exchange. And then the worried looks exchanged between DIL and MIL when Raghav says he arranged and hand picked every single thing. The whole exchange was so hilarious. Jaya absolutely doted on Raghav and that is why Raghav just couldn't handle the loneliness after Jaya breaks the ties with him. And the past was always hanging between them as a wall. Now that everything has been forgiven, you can see the leg pulling and warmth between mother and son come back. I loved the way Jaya gushes when she sees her son and pallavi dressed up - like Raghav ne zindagi main sirf ek acha kaam kiya hain aur woh hain pallavi se shaadi karna. Jaya acknowledges the efforts of Pallavi to bridge the differences between Raghav and herself. And Raghav being the pouty kid saying - Main itna bhi nalayak nahin hoon. Aww these 3 and the banters - they have all my heart. I never felt Keerti loved Raghav the same way as he did but Jaya and Raghav's bond is too precious. If only every MIL in India is either like Aayi or Amma - then this relationship will not be feared at all.
That is why the episode where Jaya forgives Raghav is one of my favorite episodes. I love the whole exchange of Jaya and Raghav and Jaya finally letting Raghav bury those past demons and them hugging - It is really one of my favorite scenes of the show. And then the heart to heart talk where Jaya says that she came to ask forgiveness because of Pallavi. Raghav has the look of admiration for his Pallavi that she could breach this difficult topic with his mother and fought his corner and now his mother is forgiving him. The whole episode was one beautiful one - a mother forgiving her son and showering him again with the same love and a son finally getting back his mother - not just physically but emotionally too.
Sickand - thank you for penning strong mother-in-laws. If the show does go till at least a track of pregnancy then I want both Amma and Aayi to demand that they take care of Pallavi in their house and Raghav will be caught between - whom to support. If anyone can write an OS on this I would love to read it. Aayi can be like - Pallavi is my daughter so the first pregnancy will be at Deskmukh house and Amma can be like oh no - Pallavi will be here. OS writers if anyone can pick this up - please do write one on this situation.
