I don't think anyone here likes the idea of Aryan forcing imlie. Even if it's just on the surface.

We've been batting against forced marriage from the start and hoping imlie'd know love outside the bonds of matrimony that will really color her vision and bring in obligation because of her upbringing.

This wedding ain't happening before April, so we still have like 4 weeks to see the stage setting.

We are waiting to make a judgement call really, because no point fretting over something we have no control over.

Oooh is there a reason you're sure it won't happen before April? That timeline makes sense to me tbh and I prefer that or a later wedding to anything this month. Even a nice Spring wedding in May might be nice too☺️. But just the fact that this wedding was even rumored to happen this week on the promo was ridiculous.

I kind of want to post a topic about this but if Aryan forces Imlie (regardless of reason), then at least to me it's clear that he doesn't love her. Because love can't put such a burden on a person, especially if the person has gone through as much hardships as Imlie. His character gets completely butchered with this move. I'm really trying to think of a scenario where a forced marriage makes sense for the characters and the only thing I accept is if Imlie compels Aryan.

But regardless it really should be mutual.

I don't know y'all. I feel like a few people are totally on board with a forced wedding but that just leaves such a bad taste in my mouth. Anyways its Gul and Bhau's show but I'll be so sad when the characters I've grown to love become toxic by making such moves

💯 agree. The thing is, I'm currently just hoping that the promo was designed to get us all talking and hyped up (like we are right now) and won't play out the way it did. Because imma wanna throw chappals at them both if it does. First, at Imlie, because enough of making sacrifices for that undeserving spineless man. But probably more at Aryan, because his entire character has been built on the idea of valuing consent and agency. Even if it's well intentioned, it's gonna be so upsetting to see him willing to make her go through the trauma of an unwanted wedding a second time, considering he's probably the only person in the world who has an insight on exactly how traumatizing it was for her. And I think I'll be more annoyed at Aryan than Imlie because at least Imlie's idiotic self sacrificial decisions are inflicting pain on her, not on others the way this would.

On one end, Aryan has earned more than enough goodwill with me so I'll probably be able to move past it, won't be the first forced wedding we accept, it's such a common trope. But I think because of how much goodwill he's earned, it's all the more difficult to see him be this way, if he turns out to be.

But call it idiotic optimism, I still have some faith it won't play out the way we're fearing 🤷🏻‍♀️

Well, just real life reasons...

IPL is starting in April, so to counter the anticipated dip in trp, we are expecting wedding track to unfold around that time....

Because now it's too sudden.

At last wood-faced new Adi showed an expression on his face... a smirk. All it took was one smack and a couple of hooks to his face. Maybe somebody should beat him black and blue we might make a thespian out of him yet.

Only appreciation Bea

I absolutely and wholeheartedly appreciate adi to smirk while being beaten and being accused of abetting someone's death.

Also appreciate his quick thinking and planning skills, that he can use that to manipulate his sali against her friend-cum-boss and guilt her into coming back to be his illegitimate wife again.

Yes to all of this! Just tried to make your post shorter since this is an AT now.

I just feel like with each passing episode my heart falls a bit. Butttt keeping in mind what Sundari said in terms of the wedding happening in April, I feel like there's a lot of room for the plot to really deepend.

Even if I am a bit jilted, I do believe that the writers have invested a lot in both Aryan and Imlie. Especially bringing in FK as a new hero. Even to the point of trolling us by having him call himself a villian. So I'll try to keep a consistent dose of chill pills so I am not too invested in this. At the end of the day its a show and I'm putting way too much time onto fictional stories...my non-fiction life is suffering😆

Let me get this right... you are not willing to accept Aryan forcing Imlie into marriage but are ok with Imlie 'compelling' (which I read as forcing) Aryan? Wouldn't Imlie forcing Aryan mean that she too doesn't love Aryan? Shouldn't your misgivings about Aryan forcing Imlie also apply to the reverse of Imlie forcing Aryan?

Sorryyy I tend to go on word vomits 🙈🙈🙈

Yeah I mean, lol, I think the promo just made us anxious because we have one of the rarest creatures to be found in ITV land here- a man who doesn't have red flags straight up exploding out of him. But dekhte hain, I'd much rather enjoy the episodes as they come than ponder too much.
