I liked the episode.
As silly as the premise is, with Dev not realizing how serious Asha was and went for the seminar, I think both Shaheer and Erica performed very well in their scenes. It was very touching when Naadiniyon mein played in the background.
For the sake of story, accepting that Dev screwed up. But he is feeling terribly guilty and genuinely sorry. He wants to make amends. Good, I am glad. Everyone screws up. He made a mistake, he realizes it and wants to make his wife feel better. His attempts need to be 100% focused on Sona and not the half-assed one like the Cafe meeting. He needs to revisit his priorities and set them straight. My wife, my life. This is the point to show that. Not running off to get some employee of the hook for driving without license while your emotionally fragile wife is waiting to talk to you. BTW his lawyer was also there, so why was Dev needed? But. Moving on.
I am also sure that the secret phone call he was on was for Sona, something that he is planning for her. I hope whatever he is doing will alleviate at least a tiny bit of her pain. Although I wish he had done the yoga also. And calling her on the pretext of an accident is quite insensitive.
I was glad Dev went to the therapist. I am really glad that this time Dev has someone mature and non-judgmental, who can listen to his issues without constantly validating his actions, someone he is able to trust and talk to. Most of his life, he did not have such a presence, a third person who is not invested in him and can give valuable advice. He chose to pour his heart out in front of her and didn't tell Ishwari anything. Thank goodness.
Sona's pain was palpable. I also felt that at the time, she was more interested in sharing her emotional pain than blaming him. The blame came when he didn't come, showing that she wasn't his priority, the wound deepened when she saw it was some random girl he chose over her this time. I was also touched by her concern that all this may stress him out. Her fear of losing him remains.
What was amazing is, she woke up in the morning, ready for yoga, ready for them, ready to work on their relationship. Women are resilient.
