Okay, on re-watch of the episode, would like to mention some stuff in vistaar that I may have missed in my earlier review:
Loved Adi and Aparna's scene - that was the best seven we have seen in weeks - more so because it gave all the feels that we normally associate with the show. That honest conversation and his plea for her to forgive his mistake and accept the girl he loves - reminded me of how a child is asking their mother to give him something precious that he has been bereft of for so long. The way Adi says - I love her mom - A simple truth that he never said for Malini, made Aparna pause in her tracks. Aparna's issue will always be that Adi changed because of Imlie - that frightens her because she has seen to what limit Adi can go for Imlie. She is worried that Imlie may take him away from her, but he was trying to make her understand that end of the day he will come back to her only. He loves Imlie, but his mother, even with all her idiosyncrasies that he once hated, is someone who cannot be replaced by anyone. That simple plea - make me something I love and give me your forgiveness along with that - was enough to melt Aparna's heart so much that she agreed to try, which was something she never would have said before.
Imlie's dupatta today felt like a character in it's own - it was almost acting in its own way what she felt. Be it how she first drapes it out of shyness and nervousness on what is going to happen, to it dancing along with her at the function. The dupatta felt like a promise fulfilled, when it got stuck right in front of Adi's photo at the time of the mahurat and was then used to show Imlie's attitude and irritation at Malini's antics to ruin her function. Finally it was used a tool to signify Imlie's ominous premonition that something is not right with Adi, when he gets shot by SK. Today that dupatta really felt like an extension of Imlie in everywayđ
NN today was on fire in everyway - be it signifying her chadti jawaani to the public - they should have asked kamzor kali about NN's jawani wale karnaame and kisseđ. Naani calling out everyone, forcing AC and Aparna to dance and basically creating a masti wala mahaul - so much so that it made even BK give up his akad, Radhaji ka darr and sadu shakal to finally danceđ€Ł. The entire set up was well done - I was worried it could have been cringey, but they pulled it off and howđ
Loved how someone mentioned that the line - tune kadar na jaani rama was metaphorical of Malini singing to Adi and Imlie singing to Malini. Malini's no kadar about Adi has landed her in a situation that she could never have even imagined, but is completely unaware of. Imlie's words where she said - Adi was with Malini only na all this while, felt like an allegory to their relationship - Adi was with Malini all this while for 7 years, but he still chose to comeback to Imlie even after leaving her to marry Malini. Similarly when Imlie said that kismat has gotten them together was her way of explaining that no matter how hard Malini tries, she will never be successful. Adi and Imlie will always find a way to be together, coz they have the biggest shipper doing everything to get them together - their relationship builder, who actually got them together against all odds - the one and only Sita Maiyya
