Tonight's episode was perfectly balanced between JeeMan & VirMan, which I absolutely loved. One is Manvi's soul, the other is her heart :) One is a parent, the other is a partner. One lives for her, the other cannot live without her.
The episode starts with VirMan & Jeevika waiting for the doc to start her chemo session. Both not on talking terms still, but cannot stop looking at each other. Manvi is still upset and not willing to say sorry, while Virat is waiting for her to come to him, knowing she will :P I had a hint in last night episode that Virat knew Manvi was jealous, but tonight it was confirmed. The way he was looking at her and then he tried to make her jealous even further by talking to Seema and hugging her for a bit too long. I was laughing like anything watching Manvi's expressions. Poor Jeevika stuck between these two, without an inkling of what's going on right under her nose :P I loved how to made Manvi realize that she needs to say sorry to Virat, and Manvi ever agreed, only to sit back again, even more upset with him after seeing his behavior with Seema. I must say, I'm loving her character, am glad she was not the girl to make Manvi realize, because she is being such a great help in this cancer track. She tells Manvi about the chemo session coming up and immediately both the sisters get tensed on hearing about it, but Virat knows how divert his partners attention from the up coming session and he teases how she is like coconut, but the other way round :) The trick works, instead of tensed she is back to being angry at him. But it was time for Chemo now and Seema takes Manvi away with Jeevika following her.
The next scene was just as realistic as the previous one, with Seema explaining the whole procedure and asking Jeevika to sign the consent form, and she asking Seema what is the consent form for and that can't they d the procedure without it ? Its not possible, its an imp requirement of the procedure, so Jeevika takes the form and wants to sign it, but her hand trembles. At this point I remembered the movie 'Vivah' where Amrita's uncle hand trembles while he is about to sign the surgery consent form because he has flashback of her childhood. I almost expected Virat to come and say he will sign the consent form, like Shahid, but I'm glad they didn't sow that, because it was a duty of a parent or a guardian, so right now its not his place or right to do so.
The procedure starts, with a very tensed Jeevika and a calm Seema telling Manvi to relax and that it will not hurt. What I loved about the scene initially that Jeevika despite being so tensed and terrified for her sister, was willing to be there for her, so she doesn't have to go through it alone, like she promised Manvi, that they will battle the cancer together. So she tried to stay strong only to falter after a while, because Jeevika is just not strong emotionally. She wants to be there for her sister, the love and the will is there, but she is really not capable to be actually there for her sister and comfort her, keeping aside her own emotional turmoil. so Seema takes her away, because Jeevika's emotional state is not helping and could actually affect Manvi's will and endurance if she feels her sister is upset.
While Jeevika was there with Manvi during this, there was someone outside, just as worried and tensed, but he knows his place, so he peeks in to see his love, because while Jeevika made a heartfelt promise to handle her illness together, Virat had promised himself the same thing, His love doesn't need to express those promises to her, it has always been unspoken between them. He will be there for her through everything and he does it without expressing it. When I was watching the scene, I kept wondering why Manvi was flexing her hand, to realize later that she was unconsciously wanting her partner's support, because the last two times she was in pain, it was him who was there to comfort her. He, unable to see her in pain, comes inside and holds her hand, wanting to take her pain within him. Once he does, she clams down because she knows as long as he is there with her, the pain won't be so bad, because he would somehow make it better. He doesn't say a word, he doesn't need too, his eyes eyes says everything, and she understands every word.
It was a beautiful episode, tugged my heart to the core. Special mention the the CV's, Priya Ji, Nishal & KD ! They were awesome tonight, especially Nia, but words aren't enough to praise this girl !! Kudos to her !! She is simply phenomenal !!!
