Things I liked:
1) The anti-climactic dream...lol I was thinking this might be Rudra's dream but I guess I should have known that Paro is the one who wants to imagine him more confused about his feelings for Laila...she is jealous whether she admits it or not😆...so the dream was a manifestation of her worst nightmare...that Rudra is still hung up on Laila...
2) Rudra blasting Laila off in the morning...lol now there's the Rudra we know and love...btw Laila is getting new costumes and earrings now? I guess that proves she's here to stay...ahh well.
3)Rudra asking for chai...Paro...awww😆...he looked so cute standing all awkwardly at the kitchen door trying to figure out how to talk to Paro...and so hurt when Paro refused to pour it for him.
4) Dilsher deciding to intervene...and making Rudra realize that Paro will need time to digest this...I'm glad that Rudra clarified that he would never have wanted to keep Paro in the dark...and Dilsher asked the all important question...what does this marriage mean to Rudra...does he truly want to save this marriage...is that why he felt the need to come clean about his past?
5) Rudra-Paro's scene in their room when he tries to ask her why she wants Laila to stay...interesting convo here😆...if I didn't know better, I'd say Paro all but asked him why he hasn't made her his patni in the FULL sense yet😆...that is surely the tone in which her line went..."I just have this red thread to symbolize me as your wife...am I REALLY your wife?"😆...and Rudra looked guilty and stumped when she asked him this...the main question being she feels unsure of her place in his life now...she asks him what right does she even have to question him about Laila.
So I guess some introspection is coming up for Rudra based on what Dilsher asked him and what Paro asked him.
Things I find a bit strange:
Ok so Paro isn't actually judging him over his past...she clarified to Maithili that she doesn't judge him for a past that happened before he married her...that's quite surprisingly nice to know...but she now wants to know if he can ever love her.
Pausing here for a bit...Let's rewind, Paro...remember the days when you said you will win his love toffee deke, dhamkaa ke, sure shot any way? What happened to all that?😆...I'm just trying to figure out the whole about turn again...I was going with the assumption that Paro has such faith in her own love compelling him to fall in love with her that I never thought she would think this also...but seeing a living reminder of her husband's past in front of her seems to have compelled Paro to question if no matter what she does, Rudra will ever love her...I guess what I'm saying is I'd have liked some elaboration/qualification of how this fits in with Paro's claims of divine symbolisms and BHAGYA as she's quoted time and again...does Bhagya suddenly go POOF when you find out that your husband had an 8 year long affair and that means BHAGYA may not necessarily make him fall in love with you?
Another thing...I'm a bit surprised that Paro is more focussed on whether Rudra can love her or not considering that she herself has vowed to leave him anyways...so what is the point of him loving her or not then?😕 If she's going to leave him anyways...what will she have achieved by getting some patni haq from him?😕... Has Paro thought this through?😕 Have the writers thought this through?🤔
