My review for today's episode, I don't know I like the episode, it opened so many cards for viewers, although I'm still uncomfortable with Virat marrying Pakhi, but have to accept it that this is the twist they have brought......
Now coming to episode, if anyone want to understand the entire dynamics post leap then watch the "Aarti" sequence, all the characters somehow opened their vulnerabilities infront of the supreme being during their worshipping, it seems like they all were in facade and during Aarti all the facade was off and everyone showed their real emotions infront of bappa, all characters' expression were on point 👏
Now coming to their vulnerabilities, first Omi family is clearly not in good terms, Omi is very much against the new Malkin, sonali is somehow tolerating for BK, Mohit-Karishma's relationship is at their lowest, Karishma has become indifferent to Mohit and maybe having an affair, Mohit is sad and affected with all this.....
Second is Ashwini, after Precap I was like how can she be so cruel to Sai, but her expressions in the Aarti were on point, as if she's really in pain with the loneliness in her Son's life, it seems she was praying to bappa to give her son back, his happiness back, like any mother she has accepted that Sai is gone and her son is in extreme pain and he needs to move on, the memories of Sai is giving him that pain and that's why he should remove that part from his life, bcoz at the end of the day, a mother can't bear the loneliness and unhappiness in her children's life.........
Now coming to Pakhi, whoever thought that Pakhi is changed is in complete surprise, coz Pakhi seems to be like as it is, she is the same Pakhi that she was before, during the whole Aarti, her eyes were only on Virat, clearly implying that her obsession is still the Virat and not Vinu.....Vinu is just a medium to get through her obsession, and I think Vinu knows this and hence he is very detached with her....she is clearly in very very big hopes and if I say precisely then "intezaar" that Virat will accept her one day, as Sai is not in the picture now, but she is clearly pained with Virat's complete detachment towards her.......she's trying to pacify herself during the whole Pooja that her intezar will be over one day and he will come...
Now regarding Virat, I know people are very unhappy with his behaviour and certainly never want him near Sai, but his Neil's expression during Aarti were on point, it clearly depicts Virat's state of mind, Virat is not happy, he is in extreme pain, the absence of Sai is really difficult for him to accept, he's totally zoned out during the whole Pooja, as someone said he's alive but don't want to be alive, among so much crowd, he's Lonely and his loneliness is known to both Ashwini and Pakhi......
Regarding Virat Pakhi marriage, I think they don't even talk, the first scene of the episode was give away that they are not in conjugal relation, the photo frame implied, it was court marriage, it can real or fake, depends on trp, Pakhi is initiater in the relationship, Virat clearly doesn't talk anything, she try to start a convo, by asking him about Bappa, but he left.....
Now coming to Sai, Sai bai seems happy and content with her life and with her daughter, the peace, serenity and feeling of contentment was clearly seen in Sai's face, maybe she still loves Virat but she has accepted the fate that he'll never come back and they were never meant to be.....but her only conflict is Savi and her baba jap....
