I came back home late so I just now managed to watch today’s episode. I also took some time to read y’all’s post.
Finally Sonali & Karan have returned to the Chaudhary mansion! Sure the family knew they were out for business related reason, but being in the same clothes for 2 days straight is crazy. Sonali is really the most level-headed person in that house, look at the way she calmly questioned Meera after viewing the CCTV footage (waise kya action movie style quality thi 1996 mein).
Meera could’ve revealed the truth is so many ways, they’re writing her in such an inconsistent manner. All the meddling, invading family moments and withholding of information, it doesn’t make sense. Although, the actress does have great chemistry with Sai and Adrija, the BGM they use for her scenes with Agastya is so hauntingly beautiful.
Sai and Adrija absolutely killed it today again! We had the post-proposal scene where Agastya and Imlie just got lost in each other’s eyes. Sweet little eye lock moment à la Gul Khan. Loved the way Agastya brought up Imlie to eye level and how she pointed out that they always get interrupted only for it to happen again. They are so adorable!! The way the little chaadar fell on their head kind of reminded me of those chunri scenes that symbolize the blessing of the goddess on a union.
The scene that stole my heart in this episode was definitely their conversation in the room. Such a beautiful performance, both of their eyes were brimmed with tears in such a delicate way. For a moment, I thought Agastya was going to remove Imlie’s hand from his chest but instead he just held on to her. This was a very vulnerable and mature conversation, I love this side of their relationship. It’s a difficult conversation to have especially when you know that the one you love is in pain. I agree with Imlie that she can share his pain and sadness but not his wounds. He has to allow himself to let old wounds heal in order to move on and be happy with her. She is in this with him through thick and thin. It’s such a blessing to have such an understanding and patient partner.
Agastya is truly like a shield, you can really see how protective he feels of Imlie and her heart when he was watching her read Meera’s letter. He doesn’t want her to ruin herself in trying to help his mother. This is gonna be the first time where he withholds information from her in order to protect her. Imlie will definitely feel dejected but I don’t think she’ll actually believe that her Kakima was a greedy opportunistic woman. I hope we get to see August Babu comfort Imlie before she finds out that he hid the locket’s truth from her.
Overall, very good episode. Definitely the kind you can rewatch more than once. Alka will definitely throw in her 2 cents in tomorrow’s episode since Meera basically proved her point. Sonali is back home so I hope we get to see Asma shine in the family scenes. A very under-utilized actress with amazing screen presence. Let’s see how they introduce the Satyawan-Savitri track, the precap is getting repetitive.
