Beti sher, toh maa sava sher...

Well, was today the Niharika show or what? Forget Switty darling...this woman is Medusa incarnate. A snake-headed woman who kills her own children. Symbolically, of course.

Niharika..welcome to the world of evil and manipulative mothers...I see a long line of worthy villains raising their caps to you...

Good post, haven't watched the episode yet but I feel i should not waste my time doing so.

And smile...of course next week is going to be good. The wedding is on 25th...so hopefully it will be dhol bajne laga...band baza barati...and Ramji will garland Priyaji...while making faces, especially when Prijayi puts it around his neck...am sure he will be thinking, phansi pe lataka diya mujhe meri step mummy nah. I am sure he will wish Vikram carried a pair of scissor so that he can use to cut that noose around his neck.😆 Ok...sorry got carried away.

Stepmother is protecting her ghar ki izzat and also the tijori ki chabbi. A friend who came from India told me that you can go and get an abortion for 100 rupees in India. That after Navratri these docs are pretty busy doing these. So why doesn't mommy secretly get one done. See it doesn't matter about her wanting ghar jamai, because it is shown that Kartik has some backbone so her shipping off immature beti to sasural should make her nervous. The only thing that is possible is that somehow Kartik is blackmailed into staying in Kapoor mansion too.

There has not been logicality to much of the scenes this week. Like you said, why would two mature people stand in middle of road exchanging rings back. And it does not make sense for Niharika to call Ram back to house...seriously is she going to say that his choti has done the deed or is she going to say choti has changed her mind?

Well whatever crap they give us to get this shadi back on the road it will be hard for us to digest anyway. I have not watched Shor in the city yet, but Ekta is the woman whose company produced Once upon a time...a good entertaining product...so why not bring that quality to her shows?

Vasu well analysed points.

Yes Niharika showed her true colors and and made no bones about the fact that to achieve what she aimed for , she will spare no one whether her husband 20yrs her senior, step son or her biological children. In that sense she is not evil personified; but a sort of single minded person determined to have her way.

Awesome post as always Vasu.👍🏼

Great points by you all..

After y'days Epi i am here with following conclusions : -

1. Ishika is a waste in the Show. She is more so like an Sec to her Mom and nothing else.
2. Niharika is gonna be a typical saas really soon. The way she behaved y'day ... i might not be surprised if in future we have a track about the 3 kids not being Kapoor's in real but this female had forced it on Rams father. She can go to any extent for ruling that Kapoor Empire ..so who knows aur kitna sach chipaya hai
3. Natasha - I find some hopes that this girl MIGHT get good in future. She might mellow down to Ram n Priya. I am saying "MAY BE" or may be not too. But yday i did find some hope.
4. Ram n Priya - These 2 are busy playing with thier lives now. Got engaged for Family and now are breaking it off ...i mean WOW ... yaar koi seriousness hai ki nahii? Whats the difference between Nuts-Karthik and these 2 in all this Rishta nibhao and Rishta bachao andolan?
5. Shipra - I found her nyc y'day. She was right when she asked Priya to keep some patience. Thoda teher ke, sochke dekho, jaldbaazi kyun?🤔

Anyways
All i wanna say is : - Ekta ... pls donot give this Show highend Drama. Niharika was srsly like this Zehreeli Nagin y'day. So much of negativity. And why shud Ram-Priya decide thier life n future decisions depending on Nuts-Karthik's decison? WHY ... why cant these 2 decide for thier lives and keep both the Stories different

As for her attitude with Nuts, she is reminding me of The OC's Julie Cooper who sacrificed a lot to get to the top, and she's not going to let a crazy daughter ruin it all for her. That said, I don't get why she thinks that Priya would be the quiet bahu. Niharika has proved today she is very good with knowing people and what they want, she called Nuts tough girl bluff in a second, and has apparently manipulated Ram for years. @bold - very interesting, Mahi. Hadn't made the connect before now but now that I think of it...it does make sense. I was trying to find a Indian TV example to compare her to but fell short because I realised there is no example, at least not in recent years. She is neither overly maternal and loving, nor an out and out villain. Interesting to behold, and as you said, makes you want to watch her more. She does seem to have her eye on the ball, mostly, but in Priya's case God only knows why she is wearing blinders. Maybe she has such tunnel vision now that she can't or won't turn to the side to see exactly what she doesn't want to see. My sis was saying how, in a way, Niharika is actually doing Nuts a favour by insisting upon her marriage to Karthik, and that how, in the future, this might turn out to be Nuts' saviour.

Little Things:

Vas, a lot of things about the pregnancy test were bothering me. Like how it took Nuts only a second to get the result, how Nuts brought it out of the bathroom and threw it at her mother, and of course, how exactly is ishika planning on conceiving a child if she is never with her husband? Also, how dense is Nuts not to know what changing colour(which I am guessing means the stick is blue) means? For someone who's had "50 boyfraaands", you'd think she would at least know how a pregnancy kit worked...? Is she even old enough to have had 50 guys? Coz, ew.

Nuts had basically been unaware of how her mother has been manipulating Ram for so many years. And Nuts is not completely psychotic, she actually listened to reason once. I actually disliked her less because just this once, she was controlled by someone else. It makes her see more real, and less of a person who just gets everything she wants. I think Nuts was truly terrified at seeing this roop of her mother. For all her nuttiness, I don't think Nuts was ever evil, just spoilt. So seeing her mother's calculations against Ram in particular must have given her pause for thought. It seemed like she was truly concerned about Ram as well.

And, it can't have done her ego any good to realise that there is an even bigger manipulator in the house than she is 😆 mummy trumps daughter, every time 😉

And how sad is it that the best scene of the episode wasn't an RamPriya scene even though there was one in the episode? RamPriya writers...how about next week, there is less angst and sadness and more fun and comic relief...Ram & Priya are chasing their own tails and going around in circles. Engaged. Not Engaged. Engaged. Not Engaged. Engaged...etc ad nauseam. No wonder Ram is confused as to his current status! 😆 Maybe he would do well to update his Facebook status once in a while :p

We analysed her role here but I would like to suggest giving her full marks as an actoress. Without much showing off or evil feelings she just passed the message with perfect impact.

i was surprised when she told about her plans to nuts bcz mother was blackmailing her own kid and i was hoping that ram would hear all her conversation which didn't happen. And that pregnency test was qiute quick. I agree that how would ishika get pregenent if she is not with her husband all the time😆 I doubt if its kartik kid as nuts has almost 50 boyfriends🤢
