Quite a long interview might take whole Sunday to read .😆

So does Aryan keep that payal in his pocket everyday? I mean, would it be a part in his night routine to take it outta his pocket and keep on the dressing table and a part in his morning routine, to keep back it in his pocket from the dressing table.

Awww, how cute and creepy.

Most definitely !
sometimes we live with a finite perspective when the opportunities are vast and multiple.

I am gonna go on a bit of a rant to your single statement lol. My apologies for the long read.

So perfectly put. I have watched Imlie on and off since the start. I could never fully immerse even though I was liking the leads. The whole forced marriage of an older man to a teenager at gunpoint just never sat well with me then add bigamy to the mix and it was a little much for me to handle. I always saw it as two people falling in love because they went through an extreme situation and that young woman sticking around due to trauma bonding. It always felt as if because they were now bonded in matrimony, they, especially Imlie felt obligated to fall in love (yes happens in a lot of shows but the circumstances here were even more regressive). In these cultures (Asian), people tended to marry women off at a young age because they could be molded the way the in-laws/husband wanted. That young women are more likely to adopt the in-laws ways and adapt to their lifestyles than those who are older say above 25. I was able to get over it slightly when Malini stepped aside, BS and Imlie had their action packed reunion of sorts, and KC entered the picture but things only got worse. What surprised me is how the audience, like you said, kept a finite perspective about the relationships in this show rather than seeing the grander picture. This show is called Imlie so it will revolve around the titular character. It's more her journey than anyone else's.

This is an 18-19 year old who has her entire life ahead of her. BS isn't her end all be all. What I can respect about the first (Hindi) version is that Aditya ended up with Malini and Imlie went off to study - making her own way. It's commendable they did that. When Imlie was announced, Gul stated that it would be more realistic than the other versions. I waited 300 episodes for that to happen but I only started seeing that vision when Aryan entered and Imlie walked away from the humiliation/degredation. So many people come and go in our lives and some stay especially in our youth. I saw Aditya as a phase in her life, one Imlie had to go through to continue on her journey to realize herself.

I get it, many times we watch movies and shows because we want to watch epic romances and fantastical things because it takes us away from the mundane and the stresses of our lives but we also have an innate need to connect and relate to our surroundings. There are people watching this show who have been divorced or just had a breakup maybe their first breakup or are widowed/widowers or maybe they are simply trying to rise above their circumstances. These people can relate. Watching a new man come into Imlie's life or watching her be able to pursue a career/education gives them renewed hope for themselves.

This is why I love watching shows with 2nd/new lead romances, be it due to a breakup, divorce or death. Shows people they don't need to accept their situation. Life has so much more to offer just open up your mind.
