Well, that was something!
Looks like Yash has signed up for the "best husband" contest and is determined to flush out the competition! I just loved his teasing and I can't wait for the day when Aarti is more secure and the banter becomes two way! That is just about going to melt me into a total puddle of mush!
We always knew that "Yash, the husband" was like this (this is the guy who wouldn't let his wife's feet touch the ground!), and we always knew that one day he would be a husband in the full sense to Aarti, but I don't think anyone anticipated just how ADORABLE it would be to see it first hand! Of course, today and tomorrow's episodes are going to be dripping with sweetness because we have two daunting revelations ahead of us, that are going to rock the very foundations of the relationship: the complications with the pregnancy and Prashant's truth. The second one may come later but it is going to be equally shocking to Yash and Aarti, Yash because he will find out that Aarti's ex is alive, and Aarti because she will find out that he is ill. So the writers have to establish how strong Yash and Aarti are before that and just where they are in their relationship at this point.
There were so many loop closures today. Even when Aarti wasn't in love with Yash, she tried her best to do all her wifely duties as prescribed by the family and by her own instincts. Now Yash, even though he may not be in love, or not be aware of it, is doing his husbandly duties in the same manner, with full gusto! There was a time when Yash brought her back into the house, and now she brings him back. There was a time when he ran into a wall because he was so engrossed in watching her be the perfect mother to her children, and today she walked into a wall because she was engrossed in the man that was a perfect father to her children, all four of them. There was a time when she brought him juice because he was sick, and today he brought her juice and made her drink it! She made up silly names for him like "mauni baba," and called him an akdoo and an "uncle", and today he turned around and teased her for being ziddi and bhagodi. The relationship is really coming a full circle.
The fact that SP said they were celebrating Diwali early was a grim foreshadowing...of counting chickens before they are hatched. SP is celebrating the union and the unbreakable bond formed in his family without the realisation that this very Aarti who has promised him eternity has two truths hidden within her than could rip the family apart once more. About the complication with the pregnancy, I am sure the family would support her decision either way, but coupled with the truth about Prashant, it poses a very real threat to the peace and happiness that SP is prematurely celebrating.
Something I found really interesting was the fact that the kids did the aarti for their parents this time around. I was comparing the three aartis of this whole saga, since their return from Mumbai, and it is really interesting the way they chose to place them.
1. When they came back from Mumbai, Gayatri did the Aarti, that is, the past was welcoming them back...and Yash snuffed the dia out. He felt that he didn't deserve this sign of respect and welcome from the past given that he had betrayed it. Even though he wanted to go back into the past, and be welcomed there as he was used to, he couldn't because he had cheated Arpita and he felt guilty going back into his past when he felt he no longer had a right to do that. So when they came back from Mumbai, Yash stepped into the past but not with an auspicious welcome, but with guilt, torture and darkness, which he thought he deserved. He entered the house by himself and ordered Aarti not to follow him; she was stuck in the present while he journeyed into his dark past.
2. When they came back from the boxing match, Aarti did aarti for Yash. This was symbolic of an acceptance of the present. Yash had faced his demons and gotten his forgiveness from Arpita and from his own conscience. He wasn't ready to move on, but he was ready to accept what had happened and no longer punish himself for it. Here Aarti was already in one side, that is the acceptance of the present and she was ushering Yash in. But given that Aarti was carrying his child, acceptance of the present wasn't enough for her, and she left thinking that if the present was so traumatic for Yash to accept, how would he accept the future, i.e. their unborn baby?
3. Today with the kids doing the aarti, Yash and Aarti finally stepped together into the future (tell me they did NOT play karyeshu daasi 🤢 I am just going to clench my teeth and ignore that for sanity's sake). Both of them have embraced their future together and have promised each other and their family to walk hand in hand through out their lives no matter what. The kids represent this beautiful future because they are the ones that bound Aarti and Yash long before either of the two parties had any inclination themselves, and they remain the strongest cohesive force in the family of five, with their tube light parents just now coming around. The Aarti-Yash bond was always going to be eternal because of these children and their definition of their parents as a unit, only now Aarti and Yash themselves have accepted this bond and decided to fulfill it for eternity.
On the other hand, we have Shobha and Dubey, who every day are diverging as a parental unit. What is wrong with Shobha? She seems a bit psychotic to be honest! I would rank Prashant a fair few notches above her as a human being at this point, because even though he blamed Aarti for separating him from his parents, and even though he swore revenge on her, he didn't hesitate to help her when she was in trouble, out of sheer humanity. If Shobha had found Prashant lying in a forest, I am pretty sure she would have just left him there, because god forbid he should harm her precious Aarti's perfect life with her perfect husband! To be honest, Shobha scares me...a lot. What is this woman? Her dialogue in the precap gave me the heebie-jeebies. How can she bring up the shraadh when Prashant is in so much pain and begging for a single ounce of sympathy from her? I could connect much more to Dubey today and seriously got a lump in my throat when Prashant broke down, holding his father's hand. Prashant's sad, vocal BG music, is simply haunting
All in all, an enjoyable calm before the storm(s)!
