The pace of the story is definitely a little slow right now but the execution of some of the scenes is so lovely with such good acting that it's still an engaging watch.
Today we saw some more of the aftermath of ugly newspaper story - at this point it seems to be Ajeet facing the consequences more than Swaran given how it's disrupted his family life and all the people in the mohalla were staring at him too.
I had a feeling the Shamshaan ki receipt is with him only but it took them two days to show that it's with him 😆......chalo aaj atleast le toh aaya.....Sharvari again proved to a true friend and is still helping out both Swaran and Ajeet despite the awkwardness that's crept in between them in the aftermath of the newspaper story.
A few beautiful scenes today that I must highlight:
a) The scene of Swaran choosing to withdraw money from the ATM to give her a feeling of accomplishment....such a sweet scene with her joy over getting the pin code right and seeing the money in her hands. Then her little kulfi treat for Sharvari....adorable scene❤️. Sangita is enacting all these shades of Swaran SO well.....the Swaran who determinedly wants to overcome her sadness for Bedi Saab's sake and find a way to keep smiling. I also like how Sharvari is a true friend to her helping her see all sides of the situation - including reminding her that this newspaper story has created problems for Ajeet too....but Swaran still hesitated to call him....as did Ajeet hesitate to call her....lol so Sharvari had to become the instrument inadvertently to bring them face to face in her house.
b) The Sorry, Swaran scene.....aww man bechaare Swajeet are now so awkward with each other😆....as if the awkwardness of 30 years of not seeing each other wasn't enough, now they have more to add to it.....lol. But jokes apart, the scene was well executed in showing the guilt and awkwardness on both sides of becoming the cause of problem for each other inadvertently. Swaran apologizing to him for him getting dragged into her life problems while Ajeet just tormented over seeing her in this problem so he's apologizing for that too.
We are shown that Ajeet essentially isn't someone who wants to ruffle the feathers of society because he is in that zone of practicality - that it's hard to survive in this samaaj if you go against the grain.....and so he asked her to again talk to her sons to resolve matters for no other reason other than to stop them from doing such extreme things to tear her down. But Swaran refuses flat out....and then lays out her reasoning again for why she has cut off relations with her sons.....lovely scene as she describes what Swaran Ghar means to her and Bedi Saab, how they built it when they had nothing and have nurtured it from scratch all these years.....they added a very sweet FB of the young Bedi couple as well.
It all culminated in Swaran asserting why she is DONE with her sons - because they insulted that father who did everything for them. Ajeet then reiterated that he is also a man of his word and never backs down from his zimmedaaris so he will never remove his name from this will since he gave his word to Bedi Saab.
That is where the epi ended and tomorrow will be the arrest drama.
I do want to see Ajeet moving out of this passive/reactionary zone as a character....what does being the guardian of this will mean in practical application? I want to see more of that than just repeating over and over again that he is with Swaran.....lol and Swaran ka bhi pata nahin lagta - kabhi she's like I don't want to drag him into all this but then she smiles also when he says he won't remove his name from the will and he's always with her....😆
