@bold: Exactly.....their love continues to not just survive but somehow even blossom even after going through the wringer in worse and worse ways daily.....matlab ek simple si imaginary bike ride mein bhi they were both blissfully content.....jo itni chhoti si cheezon mein contentment dhund lete hain, unko kya hilaa paayenge bure logon ke iraade. It is truly remarkable that even with bruised vishwaas, there love is unwavering and constant as you said. Toh that tells you that the issue is only about trust regarding one aspect.....baaki har cheez mein that trust still exists....she still trusts in the sincerity of his love for her - that love isn't dependent simply on whether or not he believes her about M ke intentions. Yes, his lack of ability to currently believe her about M is causing fractures in their relationship but even then, Imlie doesn't doubt that he DOES love her - just that she is upset with him for not seeing what is causing trauma to their relationship. Woh pyar toh hai hi.....uske liye ladne ke tareeke badalte rehte hain.
Re: pregnancy.....lol well dekhte hain next week kitni continuity hoti hai....but this week all went in hyping that doctor and his warnings which Malini kept trying to lie about or run away from.....so either this is just her usual immature brat behavior that she can't stand anyone restricting her lifestyle or she's actually hiding something bigger.......woh toh we will only know if they continue to address the topic next week also. Saturday epi will go in this pampering session and I guess it will set the basis for M ka next plan after she will feel frustrated ki Imlie ne use ghar pe baitha liya in the name of baby ke liye rest and didn't let her get another "long drive" with Adi to college.....lol.....toh iska badla legi somehow I guess.
Re: Adi's trauma....yes, even though we are all tired of how gross the story has become in the need to drag out M's psychotic crimes, it is deffo worth stepping back and seeing it from where Adi is standing.....he is ultimately a victim at the end of the day who has been successfully manipulated for a long time - gaslighted as you correctly said - by a woman who knows how to make him feel like he's a horrible person even when he didn't do anything.....so he is struggling with that yet again in the aftermath of the events of that night. I got a strong sense of SELF-LOATHING in him in that last scene again with the way he told Imlie he feels like he's a gira hua pati....and simultaneously he just doesn't know how to begin processing the reality of this baccha now.....ki woh kaise bhi karke aa gaya hai toh uske baare mein kya feel karo.....this is what a trauma victim would struggle with so they are atleast showing it a bit better now rather than the instant jump to saying sab kuch bacche ke liye as they did in the aftermath of the video deletion. Today they finally gave space to show Adi's frame of mind and it was important for the story. They also conveyed that Adi is feeling more responsible for the child given how obviously neglectful Malini is being....that is what is driving his conflicted feelings ki ek toh he is barely able to stand her (disgust shows on his face clearly) but at the same time he feels all the more sympathy for the child who is innocent in all this.
Exactly This!! Again koi lagaav nahi feel ho raha hai but given ke malini is ignoring and neglecting which he has clearly noticed and found wierd he feels like he is out of options too with malini ko pata nahi fikar hai ke nahi humein to hai..this bacha is just a zimmedaari to him jisse jaan nahi chuda sakta even if he wants too given that iski ohooti kismat aisi maa mili toh ab kahan jaaye yeh despite feeling the bhojh and kya hai yeh sab adi will have to step up and yehi karne ki koshish kar raha hai even though as you said and I previously said it is a constant reminder for him that he is a Gira hua pati towards imlie..that thought isn't letting him be and thay hurts him ke then even if he want too he cannot actually be happy I'm regards to the baby cas then it comes down to he is a pateht9c hubby who ended up cheating when it is not his fault poor guy just still keeps blocking it out ke it is not cheating when he is RAPED he is the victim.. yes it is a PAtHETIC situation but that is not something he had control on.. so it is not his burden to carry emotionally that he did something or he is bad..if anything 9t is bhojhini who should feel that but woh toh udti ohirti hai and that part hurts me ke he iss made to think this way along with being abused that he crossed the boundary when he was used as a puppet
