So, I finally managed to catch up with the third episode of Rishta.com and i really liked it! :)
First things first - Kavi Shastri has fabulous comic timing, and Shruti's expressions are so real and perfect, that you cannot help but fall in love with these two! :)
The disgust that showed up on rohan's face when he saw Gaurav standing in his office was as if he'd swallowed a spoon of castor oil! bad analogy, i know, but that was how it looked to me! :) Very well done by Kavi, i must say!
Isha was her classy self throughout the episode. Loved that she did not want to take up a case without checking with Rohan first - shows the understanding and partnership these two share.
How all of us would love to have a boss who'd say kaam zaldi aane se nahi, karne se hota hai!! ;) i sure would!
Rohan entering Isha's cabin despite of her telling him she's busy cracked me up - again, loved the relationship these two share! :)
In fact, totally adore the camaraderie all the characters share - Rohan -Ruchika (chup reh, Nagin! ) - cracked me up big time. these two have a maximum of 4-5 dialogues, but they're completely adorable - right from mard, aurat, kamina hai, but sweet hai to today's kuch log kaam bi karte hai! lol!!
Huseifa is so adorable, his interaction with rohan was cute - kamine, xerox machine koi ghar lejata hai! lol again! :)
Ruchika and Isha - normal and so nice! :) Love the dress Ruchika selected for Isha - Shruti looked like a doll in the dress!
Loved Rohan's expression when he saw her in the dress even more - it wasn't the cliched hero staring at the heroine look - which was why it was even more endearing, i guess.
At the cost of repetition - love the relationship that rohan and isha share - very very well written, writers! and fabulous job kavi and shruti!
Case of the episode - Gaurav and the bride hunt for him, and Mohit and Smita - LOVED Mohit and Smita's situation - and loved how they were both interconnected. Men do not like competition - that sums it up for Gaurav and Rohan too, doesn't it! :)
And there is great emphasis on the way Rohan behaves when he is with clients - when he is dealing cases - I get reminded of the promo where Isha said Rohan is a great matchmaker - he sure is!
He knows exactly how to deal with clients - spot problems in relationship and honestly wants to make it alright! Love that about him!!
Now coming to Rosha - sigh!! How cute!! Like everyone else, i too loved Rohan following Isha around to find out about her date!
But i also felt Rohan was not jealous of Gaurav - he just doesn't like Gaurav - and yes, he would have hated if Gaurav was indeed line maroing Isha, but the fact is that it stems from his dislike of Gaurav and not from his interest in Isha - not right now, anyway - that's what i think!
And he wouldn't have followed her around teasingly asking her about her supposed date - Speaking of which, the tweaking of eyebrows is so cute, i swear!!
And yes, of course, the very last shot of Isha giving Rohan that sweet, tender, adoring look - i just went awwwwww!!! Hayyye!!
Did i say, really liked it? Whoops, nope - Really loved it! :)
My Rishta moment of the episode
Isha and Rohan drilling some sense into Mohit - and Mohit saying he's going to propose to Smita.
And yeah, of course the tender look Isha gives Rohan!
