@ Jaya agree!! Molestation scene was very disturbing...it's a cruel fact. But apart from those disturbing few minutes, this episode is a must watch, especially the last few minutes.

As disturbing as the "goon" attack was...Sanaya made us feel that fear and helplessness for Parvati and utter rage for the goons...how awesome is Sanaya. Hats off to this girl. Her emotions when she sees his face in the mirror and her closeness and touch on his back. Ashish...omg...I wasn't sure of him, but I am in love. My boyfriend watched the episode with me as well. We watched the video with the English subtitles first and then watched the HD version. Then I saw him watching yesterday's episode as well.
Our lives are never going to be the same for a long time.
Sanaya Ashish...2014 is their year!!!!
What a pair!!!

Great post Diya. Today's episode was definitely a must watch. It was definitely better than yesterday's as we got to see our hero come as a knight in shinning armor and protect and rescue the damsel in distress. Ashish and Sanaya have great chemistry. Rudra and Paro are going to be another epic jodi. Getting back to the episode.

I liked Paro's and Bindi's trip to the garments shop. Bindi is very cute and bubbly as Paro is calm, mature and shy. The shop keeper were creepy when he recognized the girls and joked about how he knew of them.

I loved Ashish's pained yet composed expression when he recalled his past and told his senior that his past is best to be forgotten. He's agreed to his new assignment and heads off towards the destination. So the BSDs are aware of Tejawat duel face and corrupted mind. Hopefully, they can gather enough evidence against him.

I liked the mirror connection throughout the episode where it unintentionally indicates Paro's and Rudra's presence to each other despite them not knowing each other.

I didn't like how Bindi naively agreed to join the strange men and convinced the reluctant Paro. They should have known that it was too much of a coincidence that unknown men would know about them and their destination. Especially since they are village girls who are nothing beyond commoners. How did they believe that supposedly the men around this area knew about them and their land? They most definitely are the henchmen sent by the shopkeeper who sneaked a large amount of money in their sack. Tejawat is really a cruel man to not care about the safety of two girls who left their land in trust of his word and protection. Yet, he is ready to feed them to sharks or this case creepy men so that he's deeds are not exposed to the enemy (BSD).

It was a horrifying experience for Paro to witness her friend being thrown off the trailer as the greedy men confiscate her sack and begin molesting her. At first she screams for her friend until she realizes she is yet to experience the worst as the lewd men advanced towards her. The poor girl has nothing defend herself as these three men begin harassing her and enjoying her cries to help. She even prays and begs for their mercy but these leeches are not ready to let go of a beautiful maiden.

She is momentarily spared as the men are awestruck by the presence of an unknown man speeding on a bike. They watch him approach their vehicle. Paro falls down and gathers towards the edge of the vehicle so that she could gain the attention of this new man. She pleads for help yet her words fall on deaf ears as Rudra passes their vehicle. She is then left to the mercy of the leeches who begin to molest the innocent girl again. I loved the background score during this scene as I hear the chants of Maheshwar (Lord Shiv). Despite not having the rudraksha with her, the lord sends Rudra (his namesake) on his behalf to protect his devotee.

Paro's pleas are heeded as Rudra comes as her protector to defend her against these leeches. He single handedly fights her attackers. He is definitely a strong and brave man. I was swooning throughout this scene. Anyways, as Rudra continues to fight the men, Paro gets enough courage and strength to push off her remaining attacker as she runs for safety. I loved how Rudra caught a hold of Paro's hand and pushed her behind him so that she is out of harm. He uses his eyes to challenges the attackers to fight him, a man rather than a harmless and helpless girl. At this moment, Paro fearfully holds onto the shoulder of her protector. She then notices the reflection of him and her in her mirror. She takes notice of her protector and his fierce expression, she is slowly watching him until she realizes that she is still holding onto his shoulder. She reluctantly let goes of him and Rudra doesn't seem to mind her hold.

He notices the attacker raise an arm against them and he skillfully dodges the bullet as he gathers Paro in his arm. He rolls over her with an intention to keep her out of harms way as he keep a protective embrace around her. Prior to this, Rudra did not really notice Paro and her exceptional beauty. He is momentarily spellbound by the beauty within his arms until he hears the sound of engine which indicates the escape of the culprits. The army man in him let goes of the beautiful damsel as he runs towards the culprits. Rudra uses his good reflexes to turn the gun towards his attacker heart as he sets off the trigger. He manages to kill one guy as the others flee but only after ensuring that Rudra's bike is no more.

The bike explosion was shocking and terrifying for Paro who didn't expect her dream to become reality so soon. She finds herself surrounded by fire as she relives her nightmare and sees a man advancing towards her much like her dream. But in this case, Rudra is here to protect her rather than harm her like in her dream. I think Paro faints at this moment as she is too overwhelmed with all the happenings. The precap seemed interesting, Rudra has taken notice of the lovely damsel and he can't keep his eyes off her while she also sees him. Tejawat is probably angry that his plan failed and Paro and Bindi are praising his enemy in front of him.

I'd like to applaud Ashish's and Sanaya's performances in today's episode. Sanaya convincingly plays a helpless girl being molested and praying for a miracle. Her cries of pain and misery were unbearable. It was horrible to see innocent Paro get exposed to the bad side of the world. Ashish was very good as Rudra, the protector. He not only protected Paro's virtue but also her life. Yet again, his actions scenes were amazing. I also liked the chemistry of our lead pair. I'm confident that we are going to love them in the coming days.
