Good evening ladies, gentlemen & pyassies !!!!
After another long day at work I finally got the chance to watch the episode and YES it is very very very much a fillar as stated by many of you but stilllll. Like the addict I am for all things Arylie, I enjoyed every Aru+Imaliyaaaa moment because they are quite literally E V E R Y T H I N G.
Part of my logical ass is like “does Jaaniya need to play every single time?” and then I shake my head, and say YES IT DOES.
- Imlie getting spooked scene was bleh but when I watched it a second time it really showed a nice parallel. Imlie and Aryan touch each other without a second thought- it’s second nature and natural. The scene after that followed was with Adi and Malani where there is no platonic touching, they’re more than an arms length away from each other, physically and emotionally.
- Filler filler filler with Malani, Adi & Aparnaaaaa. The one thing that struck me was the absolutely SH*T of assessment Adi made essentially telling his mom “don’t make me repeat the s*utty things she’s done with ASR” BISH SHE HAS DONE S*IT ALL WITH ASR (Much to our dismay). The “cheap” thinking is yours and yours alone.
- Breakfast with the Rathore’s was delightful ofcourse, but I love that they colours of the Rathore’s outfits compliment eachother. Momma in her peach and her daughter, son and future daughter inlaw in grey/ blue tones. It gave a lovely tie in, Imlie even had peach flowers on her outfit that looked so nice with Narmada’s outfit : )
- Crowing moment was OBVIOUSLY THE FAINT/ STUMBLE
- We’ve always stanned the FEMINIST KING THAT IS ASR, but Aru may need to re-evaluate, he may be the villain in the story but Imlie is always able to save him too. Maybe he’s the evil item girl that’s sometimes in distress and needs a shoulder to lean on <3
- I am obsessed with Narmada + Arpi’s relationship with Imlie. They have considered her family from day ONE. Not the help, not a charity case. The contrast between the Rathores and the T’s has been consistent and I can’t get enough of it.
- Bedroom scene: First step into his physical space girl, keep at it lmao. I like how they’ve brought levity to their interactions with humour. It’s been there from the beginning but they’re consistent with it. With the rap*st track it was very depressing and dark, the show had lost so much of it’s charm and humour IMO and they’ve managed to bring it back in different ways.
- Favourite takeaway from it was that Aryan knows her so well. He can read her better than she realizes, and she clearly has some catching up to do to better understand Boss Babu <3
I very much want Imlie and Aryan to be a power couple, and I CANNOT wait to see her badass CEO look. Her concerns are valid about being torn down for stepping in for him (which operationally speaking is a very big plot hole ASR, IDK how big of a boss you are, no intern steps in as the Interim CEO EVER LOL) but for story telling purposes it’s clear that it will act as a further catalyst for Adi to think his creepy thoughts and to further villainize Imlie and Aryan, and Imlie clearly has the ability to rise to any occasion and surprise everyone with her problem solving skills.
