Peach & Sima,
>>>Does he think his life wasnt worth saving and so Madhu doesnt deserve a thanks?
Yes, RK thinks his life was not worth saving. That's for sure. That Madhu deserves thanks, he agrees with it, hence the count and later what he was sharing with her about his Dad.
I watched the episode in mute...but it does seem to have been another landmark moment between the two. The night unfolded lot of things ...
1) Sense of loss of RK continues to overwhelm Madhu. His not being RK, but a torn soul inside hurts her. Peace and normalcy will come to her only if she gets back to see her RK.
2) RK realizes that he too wants to care for Madhu ...not in his possessive sense for his Biwi, but just for the sake of Madhu - nothing for him. But he has to break walls ...which he doesn't want to.
3) Madhu taking matters of her heart in her own hand even if that means it is about RK and felling his walls. She tells him more clearly than she is able to tell her heart.
4) RK not going ballistic over Madhu's wishes with regards to him, is reticent. He knows she is not pitying him, its that he pities himself and doesn't deserve any good for him. He realizes that Madhu sees good in him, which he too had not known that much and it now overwhelms him he is capable of some good...
5) Madhu smiles when by the end of it, she gets to see her RK, who resists her, tries to be the bad guy and who cares for her inspite of himself. This is the guy she knows him to be...and he is back...alive.
And a special reference to Pillows
The pillows started as a security wall for Madhu. RK termed it as No man's land...Nafrat ke deewano ki beech ki dewaar.
Today that equation has changed. Its no longer a safety net wall for Madhu. Today, they are there for RK. Its a no man's land for RK. Its now pyaar ke deewano ki beech ki deewar.
So much for watching the episode in MUTE. What will happen when I watch at night with audio and listen to the male version of Hum Deewane !
Today, it was a very muddled RK-Rishabh Kundra. There was not much difference between the two. Madhu is getting to know him, happy to see him that way and Rishabh is not minding it to show it to her. Now its clearly a fight with himself before he can reach out to Madhu.
OMG!!! Lovely.
