Great write-up😊
Wonderful episode, explored a variety of emotions and relationships.
Friendship
1- Armaan-Ashu, true friendship- Armaan's playful banter with Ashu even in the gravest of situation was beautiful as it eased ashu's tension
2. Rohan-Anji-Nidhi- sweet and loyal friendship- Both Rohan and anji trying to convince Nidhi to meet Ashu and helping her find a way, not fearing the wrath which may be unleashed later
3. Mallika-Ashu- possessive-pathetic actually feel sorry for Mallika as she is a typical 'woman scorned'who is using her power in the hospital to get closer to Ashu🤢
Ashu's growth - He has grown from a reticent recluse to a more demonstrative lover- the brush with death has actually made him aware of the power love. His words to Nidhi - this is a new life and it is yours'(one of the most romantic dialogues😳) Very well crafted, in my opinion of a person who has been given a new lease of life.
Nidhi's growth- from an impulsive child-like girl to a woman who has had her world turned upside down in a few days- she is torn between her deep love which brought her Ashu back from the clutches of death, to her Dad who has indulged her in every way, but this one. She is a terrified child-woman whom everyone has placed their lives on (Ashu and Baba). Who will she choose?
I think Sharad's acting was great, subtle yet deep- his voice is drool-worthy😳 He showed concern,longing, love, gratitude, restlessness in yesterday's episode. He is Ashu re-born.
Kritika was also good with her potrayal of confusion, longing and fear over the fate of her relationship.
Overall a brilliant episode - can't think of anything else but KTLK - better try to get some work done before I get back to the forum:))))
