First heart broke for Arpita. Sheās such an amazing woman and I hope her and Imlie get more scenes together.
The Tās are ridiculous as is Malini and her OTT drama. Puh-leeeze!
Devās entry was useless. It literally couldāve been anyone saving her and wouldāve made more sense with Aryan. Like whereās his Lambigadi!?!
Also, in theory that fall and catch scene mustāve sounded great but the execution was far from. Like whereād he come from?! (Maybe he is a vampire Pooja?). And she slipped on the top rung of the ladder, howād she get so far onto the bus?! Whoās in charge of consistency?! It was a bit much but standard type of scene for ITV, it just couldāve been done better. Still, I liked his thinking back on their moments and his line about it being necessary to always fall.
I loved their scenes on top. And how he was contemplative and she couldnāt stand his silence. She knew EXACTLY what he would say/what he could be thinking. He didnāt say a word to her and yet she wanted to clear the air and make him understand why she was doing the things she was doing. He didnāt even ask - because he already knew - he wouldāve said all she was thinking but he knows her so well - knew this was more than her running after Aditya. Heād been planning to take her to PD himself if she hadnāt run away.
I love that he brought snacks lol When did he have time to pick up water and snacks?! It was so cute, him quietly taking care of her while she spiralled because he was quiet. She couldnāt take that he was giving her the silent treatment.
I loved his explanation for why he wasnāt fine. That she was intent on running towards danger and thatās not okay with him but it was okay because he was going to be with her. This partnership is one of my favourite things from today - no more boss/employee barrier - and we know what that means, that professionalism barrier comes down. He was quite a bit more chill with her already. Points to the background score/sound effects person - well done.
Partnership, supporting each other, this is the foundation of their relationship and why itās going to be a strong one.
Iāve so many feelings about these scenes on top of the bus, theyāre some of my favourite. And the lyrics of that last song - while I donāt doubt he feels a responsibility for his staff - heās shown it with how concerned and helpless he felt when the bomb blast went off yesterday while he was watching the broadcast, he showed it when he used the moment with the interns as a learning opportunity - but how long is he going to hide his concern for Imlie behind this facade?
I think Pav was right all those nights ago about Imlieās mom being the one in danger. Something is going to happen to someone she loves, and itās going to force her to see Aditya in a whole different light. Aryan is going to be there to support her. They are partners after all.
I had way more gushing thoughts, picking apart that bus scene, I didnāt want it to end but I feel Iāve gone on quite a bit. Going to catch up on everyone elseās thoughts while I compose my own more deep thoughts.
