Alright, I finally got a chance to catch up with the episode.
The editing and dubbing was totally off today. It was so distracting. It seemed like the episode was put together hastily. Maybe the channel suggested some changes at the last minute for increasing TRPs and PH had to oblige! SLB himself admitted SP has more experience with TRPs and will suggest changes in the story for improving TRPs as and when needed. SP is all about the numbers, they dont care about the quality sadly. Some changes are to be expected in a modern day adaption made into a daily soap. As long as the changes are reasonably logical, they don't butcher the characters, make the story kektaish and destroy the essence of the old world romance and values, SC will be worth watching.
Today's episode seemed to be an experiment with a little of romance and evil, scheming relatives drama thrown in. Thankfully we saw very little of Guman and kaki.
Old wine in new bottle toh tha but Samud's chemistry still makes it unique. I enjoyed their scenes purely from the romance point of view. They had a conversation today. Again, I have not seen too many shows where leads have a decent conversation with each other. Does Dikra even realize he is teasing her, flirting a little bit? He had to talk about the sketch she drew of his eyes! Dude, what are you upto? She is struggling to be indifferent and not get affected with all the mixed signals he gives! Yet she seeks his opinion on the bangles. She is still searching for answers, asks whether he would have returned to Dubai if he did not have to build the school, does he have a girlfriend? Is he in love with someone? Was a previous romantic relationship turning sour responsible for his decision not to marry? Bechari Kumud.
Some adorable moments today were - his smile on seeing the bangles she bought, her embarrassment at being caught and blaming shopkeeper for packing the wrong bangles and ofcourse the chai romance– super cute. Today I noticed Dikra did look for her lipstick mark on the cup but did not drink from the same spot. It was not clear in the precap yesterday. That would be inappropriate for him to do at this stage I guess. I don't get why Kumud was so taken aback at him drinking from her cup though. They have eaten from the same plate at Ila's. His smile when he asks why the char kadam ki doori and she changes the topic, to die for.
Guess who is having trouble remembering to maintain the char kadam ki doori. Again, so cute the way he moves back when she goes towards to help open the shutter or walks towards him to stop him from drinking the chai, goes towards him to tie kerchief on his arm. 😆
This village seems to have a jinx of some sort. Almost daily, one of them injures themselves and the other tends to the injury.😆

Yes, that's what it was! You nailed it for me, it seemed to have been put together as a remix of romantic scenes .I just loved his comment on her skill with drawing specially aankhen, bahut line maar raha haiThat exaggerated moving away, that husbandly grouching about her tokana, the snide remarks, he is reacting, opening up his heart to herContrast that to his reactions with Guman, the way he schools his reactions, and is always so proper,Shows that emotionally he has a come a long way with Kumud.And she also was seen to be coming down from her high horse, warming up to himAnd the convo was really niceHe who doesn't want any rishta, already behaving like a husband , and she who had jumped to conclusions and judged him unfairly, was seeking answers, smiling, playful, jealous of any previous gfsWas really goodpar kuch to gadbad thi, kuch missing tha!Phir Arnav Khushi scene re-hash - not a bright idea!
@ underlined - their romance track has started now, they have been building the base this week it seems. Looking forward to it. Lets enjoy the light hearted moments before it turns serious again. Tomorrow is the thapad drama. Kumari ki mystery has to unfold. Guman still has her haveli trump card to play. Tab tak thoda romance enjoy karo.
I do want Kumud to know Saras' past, his life after his mom passed away with LN and Guman. Wonder if and when that will happen.
BTW - Dikra could have used his cell to inform Desais they are safe and will be on their way home soon😃 And how did he get to the market? Did he ride the bus with her? I thought they hired a car when Guman arrived.

Umm, today the romance didn't work for meThe freshness was missingAnd as for TRP - the less said about it the betterThe shows with high TRP are ridiculous and illogicalThe whole system is suspectSC is far better than all these high TRP shows!
