Angad discusses his confusion with Mahen in his room. He admits that he is concerned about Laxmi, and mentions how he is not liking Laxmi avoiding him since morning. Mahen questions whether this is concern or could it be love? Mahen then says I will ask you some questions, you just keep the answers to yourself. He starts throwing questions...
1. You thought about Laxmi's makeover, was it concern or love?
2. When Laxmi got insulted in the restaurant then his defending her...was it concern or love? Angad has flashback of the restaurant scene...
3. You, who love your mom, raised your voice against her...was that out of concern for Laxmi or was it love? He then remembers how he spoke to Shobna when Shobna refused to do Laxmi's griha pravesh..
4. Mahen reminds him of the marriage day...he says that no one agrees to marry someone just like that, but he agreed to marry Laxmi, was it only concern, or was that love?? Angad recollects him putting sindoor on Laxmi's forehead...
Angad is still in denial. Mahen then says, leave all this. He asks him to close him eyes & imagine his dream partner. Angad doesn't want to, but is coerced to do so. He sees a blury image at first, then has flashes of Laxmi. Mahen says he wont ask whom he saw, but asks him to think carefully what is the reason why he is missing Laxmi...concern or love?
Angad remembers everything that happened that morning, his callous words, Laxmi avoiding him,etc. & realises he was wrong about his feelings. He walks up purposefully to the kitchen where Laxmi is wiping a dish, all lost in thought. He smiles, then goes upto her. He calls her name, but she turns away. Then she asks whether he wants something. Angad mock blasts at her that how could she do this to him? She didn't talk to him throughout the day! Laxmi tries making excuses. Angad says what do you think I am, that I cant understand you are avoiding me? He says you are my wife, you should have come upto me & fought with me that u need your rights as a wife.😲😲 He also adds that he joked, but she took it so seriously😲 (Joke...??!!)Then he gets serious & says he was so wrong. He even calls himself a donkey! He says he couldn't understand the difference between love & friendship. He says he couldn't understand himself, nor could he understand that she is his dreamgirl. He says he wants to right all the wrongs he's committed. He finally says I Love You & also that finally he has realised what she means to him. They share a hug. Both are crying.
They are in their room. Angad is on a chair, Laxmi has just taken a bath & is wiping her hair...when she notices Angad watching her. Kuch khaas hai,kuch paas hai, from the movie Fashion plays in background. The room is lit with candles!! (Now who did this???!!!😛) She goes in front of the mirror, when Angad walks upto her. She turns around. Angad's eyes do the talking, Laxmi is nervous & walks away. He holds her dupatta. He moves upto her back, moves her hair away from her neck. He says he never realised how beautiful she is. Then he adds maybe he never wanted to notice because often we take things right in front of us for granted. They are now standing in front of each other, staring in each other's eyes...his with desire, her's with nervous anticipation. Angad tries kissing Laxmi, but she is too shy & moves away. She sits on the bed. Angad sits beside her & tells her that if she reacts like this, then probably he will get conscious too. He admits it being his first romantic instance too as he has never felt this for anyone else. He then puts his arms around her shoulder. He then says, he wants to tell her everything that he feels for her. He nuzzles her hair. In Lamho ke daaman mei from Jodha Akbar plays in the background. They hug...& we get to see the candles up close..real close!! 😉Gutur gutur time folks!!
Next morning, Angad is sleeping but is being disturbed by the sunlight. Laxmi smiling comes & blocks the sunlight. He relaxes in his sleep. Then she moves away & Angad's face screws up.😆 She then draws the curtains & sees Angad falling back into deep slumber. Finally a wife in true sense, she puts sindoor with lots of love in the parting of her hair.
Laxmi is talking on the phone & skipping down the stairs in her happiness. Probably its her friend from Dharigram,Kajari, & she whispers that she cant tell what Angad told her the previous night right now. She hangs up. Kaaveri notices her change in demeanour & asks whether finally Angad confessed?! Laxmi just smiles & shyly agrees. Kaaveri is ecstatic. She says she knew Angad loved her from the beginning, only needed a gentle push to realise it all. She says she is to happy that finally Laxmi got her her husband & true love. She also comments that its only now that she has finally completed the ritual of bidaai. Laxmi expresses her happiness & gratitude towards Kaaveri. She says it wouldn't have been possible without Kaaveri's help. Kaaveri denies it & says it was her right. They embrace & Shobna observes the hug from slightly afar with some disdain. Kaaveri calls her over & informs her that finally Angad has confessed his love for Laxmi. Shobna is just short of getting a heart attack!!!😆
Precap: Laxmi is moving outside Harsukh's room, where Harsukh's fingers are now moving more than ever before. He knocks a medicine bottle down. Laxmi hears it & goes upto his bedside. She is shocked to notice the bottle on the floor & Harsukh's hand near the table!
Comments: We all know the show is wrapping up in September...so now we will know the hurry in uniting AnXmi...however whether we appreciate it, is another story. I for one, am still disappointed. However, keeping that aside, i tried viewing the epi live on the internet, with at least some excitement...there were some snags, so its not a fullto update, but i guess ppl wudnt really care if i missed out on a few dialogues here & there & I hate to say, I am even more disappointed. AnXmi's consummation...was v rushed & unconvincing. Both the actors were visibly uncomfortable & the romance did not carry across for me. I found their first date 10 times more romantic than this first night, but they had time in their hands then...now they are out of time. I dont blame the actors though...they werent given the chance to get comfortable. The CVs did not think this through...& when I as a new observer could see the serial being flushed down by Sept, how come they cudnt?? Adding dumb & negative side tracks + poor dialogues & editing, just cost them the show...sorry...i just had to have my rant!! I'm sorry if u r offended by my post, but ask yourself, am i that wrong?? If u wudnt want me to provide future updates(dont know the official last date) please let me know...& i will just quietly exit this forum...no more rants. Its over...just over!😠& to think I was trying to shake this forum up...i'm shaken...& God knows why!!!
