♛✧ Mr. and Mrs Parshuram: Episode Discussion Thread #1 ✧♛ - Page 19

Oh boy.. I don't know where to start for today! As much as I loved yesterday's episode, today's was little bummer. I was anyway unhappy with Parshuram giving away Shalini's number but of course, this was expected.

Now, Shiv himself said to Shalini, "You deserve better husband", run Shalini! Run!!! But naa, she decided to feel guilty about the whole fiasco .

Jokes apart, I did not like the way Shalini spoke, not because I felt bad for Shiv, because what Shalini said was about the man who didn't take a stand, and she was not wrong. So, had Shiv been that way, he deserved this, but he shouldn't feel bad about it. What I did not appreciate was her ranting and the condescending tone. I ignored it yesterday in the restaurant but no! She knew what she is marrying into, and she should have expected this. It's like hypocrisy. She was mad at her family for insulting Shiv, but isn't she doing the same? My whole point of the balance other day when she defended Shiv went down the drain today.

And Shiv, bro what are you expecting? You want your family to go with the flow and assume you were able to protect them by shooting? He was happy because Pihu wasn't laughing at it, but did he not worry that she may crack the code. If you never show bolder side, how the hell do you want your family to believe you that you are

This seriously makes me question his love (and also hers, but I will talk about her in a few minutes). At this point, I feel he very much loves only his children, and I liked that it was kind of pointed out today in a subtle example that he carried umbrella to protect his "children" from rain and Shalini rightfully asked about protecting her? "What about her?" I was amazed because that's what I mentioned yesterday. I am super confident that both of them love children, but I still have my own doubts regarding them loving each other.

Now, Shalini. Woman, your 6-year old daughter seems 10x smarter than you! No wonder Shiv was so successfully able to fool you! That tweet of Shalini being dumb was quite true. How the hell in so many years you weren't able to crack the code, your daughter can see! She is smart, and I love her standing up for her father, and loved the way boy - Chintu told Shalini he will protect her when he grows up! It was beautiful. So, if ever Shiv-Shalini separates, Pihu will seemingly be Papa's girl, and Chintu will be Momma's ladla.

It really makes me wonder, despite all that Shiv has done so far, what makes Shalini stay with him. Does she really love him? She seems to have major agenda, believe me! I hate the way she insults Shiv but doesn't leave him.

I did not mind Shalini's anger directed at Shiv because according to her he failed to even support her and even asked her to not make a scene. Especially when a woman takes a stand in public, she expects her husband to blindly support her stance.. he failed there. I don't blame her.. I would blast my husband if he did anything even close to that. And about insulting Shiv, she is his wife and she is eligible to wear her heart on the sleeve and express her anger anyway she pleases but will never allow anyone else, especially her family members to insult him. Basic marriage rules. When in anger, there is no rationalization.. its just blurting out the emotion.

How the hell in so many years you weren't able to crack the code, your daughter can see! She is smart, and I love her standing up for her father, and absolutely loved the way boy - Chintu told Shalini he will protect her when he grows up! It was beautiful. So, if ever Shiv-Shalini separates, Pihu will seemingly be Papa's girl, and Chintu will be Momma's ladla.

About their love for each other, there is nothing that happened today that would make me question it. I don't know what the makers are planning for the leads but so far, I did not once feel that they don't like each other. May be its just me, but I find these conversations, fights, insults and the like very normal in a mature marriage. There will be disagreements but there are also emotions which will be directed mainly towards the spouse.. so its ok.

I missed out on precap today but I assume it's same like yesterday.

Shalini's outburst is natural. But you know when she is angry, she goes to very extreme in her tone. You don't need to bring that shirt, bag and umbrella all the time. Even we do not like it, but we are audience. I really hope makers tone her down a bit with words. Kabootar Khana, "I don't like coming out with you..", or commenting on his looks and style is not needed. She could have focused on his behavior.

But Shambhavi is doing really well! I am liking her this week.

I don't know but I maybe overthinking about their love for each other because of show's concept, and in my head, I am ending up comparing behaviors with each other and with kids to make this overthinking even deeper. Had it been any other show, I would have said Aww, but in this show, I am left confused because of this lying, hiding, etc. It's difficult to trust.

But yes, in interviews, they did mention that it would be like a normal family sequences, and that's what they are hoping for.

And anyways, what's the point, after all the accusation and feeling bad about night, next morning both of them were behaving as if nothing happened. Had it been Ekta Kapoor's show, we would have seen this anger at each other dragging till week.

The goon from yesterday called Shalini and threatened to nab the children.. meanwhile kids are in their school van when the goons stop it and kidnap pihu.

Neil is just too good as dad! Not being a dad himself yet, he is so natural at the emotions. We have seen him in ghum but these scenes are no less, even better.

The dark noodles 🍜 swayed violently as the noodle boy💇 threatened Shalini with consequences and his face turned red in anger

Shiv notices Shalini taking Parshuram's name while on the call with noodle boy 💇! Next call Shalini again talks to her sister's fiancee, the noodle boy 💇 who invites her for their mehendi function after the function is almost over . Shalini politely declines the invitation as the noodle boy's 💇 noodles 🍜 settle down calmly 😄. Shalini gets a third call from the bad guy at the restaurant threatening to nab the children as they are on the way to school. She is scared and tells Shiv about the threat. Shiv says he will make sure the kids are alright and they should leave the city to a safer place. Shalini can't believe what Shiv says. But then he runs out towards the children.

The children's van is stopped by the goons, Pihu is blindfolded and kidnapped while Chintya is left calling for his sister and parents. Meanwhile, lungi clad Shiv😂 is running in the direction of the van. Balram brings an suv and picks up Parshuram. They stop the van carrying Pihu and full on Dishoom Dishoom 🤜🤛, some gunfire 🔫, Vishnu ka chata avatar Parshuram dialogue makes a comeback 🔥🤩. Pihu is saved, hugs, kisses and assurances from paa😍🥰. Shalini calls Shiv and he informs her that he found the kids and that they are safe. He would drop them in school and come home. He turns around and sees Chintya staring at him in awe 🫢 😍. Parshuram is caught redhanded with a revolver 🔫 in his hand. Chintya realises that his dad is Parshuram and indeed a hero😎🤩. Shiv tells him not to say this to anyone and promises to give him a smart phone soon. They share a happy hug 🤗.

Precap: Shalini says she will stay in her mayka if Shiv can't protect her and the kids. Chintya says his dad is capable of much more.. Shalini is complaining to her mom, probably about Shiv.
