@Blue - Yes loved how he put across his feelings too and took Teji out of that guilt too. It was quite crisp and clear. Move on from past and start afresh.
@red- He has this special connection with the boy as he sees himself in him. A fatherless child whose mother is perhaps busy in her office life and thus miss those crucial moments where he wants her to be. Viaan recognizes it and is there for him as a mentor, as a friend and perhaps as a father figure too.
@green- thats interesting take ,yes he is a simple guy and knows he can start all over again if need arise and thus is confident in himself . He just needs his mother alongside and nothing else matters.
Thanks for detailed response. Please do feel free to put your thoughts on episode in forum as topics :)
Will definitely try to post my thoughts on the episodes....it helps when we have nice topics like this to discuss so thank you for making the effort to open this topic :)
@bold: Yes, I feel the main underlying theme of this story is about drawing parallels between parental relationships for the main characters - Katha and Viaan. Katha is a mother so she feels for the lonely child she can sense in Viaan. Viaan hero worships and loves his mother so he instantly connects with an Aarav who also hero worships his mom....that is the first thing they bonded over - that both of them are sort of in that team with their mom and don't have fathers in their lives. Viaan also admires Katha's love for her child and the sense of security she provides to him because he felt somewhat bereft of that in his childhood. These are the underlying themes that are drawing the characters towards each other since these are part of the fabric of their characterizations.

Yes they have been quite to the point in their storyline in past few episodes when previous episodes pace felt a bit slow. They seem to have taken super jet pace after that. But yes really good episodes are coming so no complaints.

@bold - Very well put in. I too feel there are parallels to mother son duo in the story. Viaan sees himself in Aarav and is in awe for Katha's dedication and love for her child that is why the truth of katha being single mother impacted him so much. He recognized her struggle from his own personal experience. And the fact that at one point he created hindrance with ONS proposal to her instead of helping her out to save her child impacted him in a deep level. He feels protective now about katha and her world -Aarav and unknowingly he has connected with Aarav too on a personal level as a boy devoid of father's love - he wants to be there for him, cheer for him. And may be Katha drew parallel with Teji and really failed to understand why she could not see her son's pain that's why there were questions in her mind and as a mother herself she asked Teji the big question on why can't she see her son's pain.
