This was a great episode marred by bad editing implanting Kusum's dramatics in the 'oh so cute' SRRYO scene. I think I've lampooned this character enough already but still my mind races whenever she shows her demented mugshot face begging for mercy. Not cool. Isi liye kehete hain, "An idle mind is a devil's workshop". She's fallen hook, line and sinker in lust, not love. Take that CVs and put this shiz to rest. As though Saras and Kumud themselves aren't enough to keep themselves apart.
I really hated Guniyal today. She's making the same grave mistake by hiding delicate information just like she'd done ages ago! Why couldn't she share it with Badima, who would have roasted Kusum's butt for not keeping her horses in control? This suggests that Winter is coming.
Going by the spoilers, this Friday has some intense Samud scene with Badima witnessing the two share a moment. It would be good to see the extent of their confession, if any and I'm hoping it's Kumud who'd do it, along the lines of the letter "you wanted me to say everything explicitly, can't you just understand how I feel about you?" and that would be one historical moment of the show, if it were to happen this waySaras has some reason to be cautious. He does want her to say it explicitly. Even if she does, does not change things a lot. Its not like he can elope with her. No matter how much he tries and the fact that he is the hero now for Desais at every moment, still he will be weighed by his mistake. For Saras and Kumud to come together, lot of things have to come together.I gave a chemical reaction earlier on page2Kusum's bechaari act+ Kumud's guilt = recipe for perfect doomsday scenarioHere is another one.CircumstancesSaras + Kumud-----------------------> BlissCatalystI somehow feel circumstances have to act as catalyst for Saras to take the plunge.Lastly,I have to have to gush about Gautam and Jenny! Gautam is the cutest adult I've ever seen😳😳 and Jenny's pristine laughter, goodness me, I got my much needed Dopamine shots seeing them after taking one riot of an exam!
Arshiji, couldn't say it yesterday, so happy that CB's up and running! And this one's one of your best🤗

Shanti ji, so true! Which is why I'm banking on Badima to counsel them... but right now we're left with incomplete info about how grey Kusum would turn. Even then I don't see what would make Kumud to want to trade Saras for Kusum's happiness. Will Kusum create circumstances that force Kumud to unite Kusum and Saras? Nice stratagem the Cvs have introduced by forging the Danny angle. Interesting days ahead.

@Bold Exactly ! And I dont know why I have a feeling that the Kusum scenario is going to work as a catalyst and is going to make Saras take the plunge !
guys kusum is no meera...kusums love is distasteful to put it mildly...all this rona dhona is for us to pity her then sorry it makes me want to slap some sense in her...maybe that is what CVs are intending to do cause even meeras love for krishna was widely misunderstood...kher anyway...meera was a devotee,a saint,her love was reverential...yeh kalgug ki meera ka chakar samaj mai nahi aa raha hai..kya use sab mai saras nazar aa raha hai tabhi kabhi daany ki ungali pakadti hai uski aankhon mai bakhti kam kamna zyada nazar ati hai 😔

Saw the episode.
Kusum ka kya kahein. I used to hold my rants on that character. Now not anymore. She is like deewani or what. iss ki tulnaa mein kumud bechaari lagti hai.Now tell me from which angle does she falling for Saras is ok? Just because Saras is not married to Kumud? She used all the words there are for him - jeejaji, saras, sarasbhai, wo, unhe.Saras Kumud scene was interspersed with Kusum saga first with Guniyal and then with Danny. Had to bear it.Whats with Danny? Who is warming up to whom.Sarad and Kumud scene was so cute. Like hgg said, they dropped guard again today in a long time. and were quite conscious about it. Saras's joy at Kumud's reaction at school was awesome to see.Have a question(call me tubelight) - Kumud saying 'mai bhi kuch nahin kar sakti' was that wrt. to she having a right to get angry or about not being able to stop Saras from worrying about her. I think the first one but want to confirm.Regarding Saras stepping back, I think his mistake is weighing heavily on his mind. Each situation that springs up directly reminds him of his mistake. Also, he has to be more cautious this time for Kumud so that no one says anything. Its totally genuine.Hgg ji,you were asking what was stopping Saras from confessing in private. I say what is there to confess. Its so obvious to Kumud. Every sentence he says tells Kumud that he loves her. Like on monday's epi, he said that if something happens to her he cant take it. Saras is where he was wrt. Kumud. It was Kumud who tried to move on but couldnt and is coming back to him. Clearly.There is only one thing needed from Saras. That plunge. But, its not so easy. But still I would like to see that coming from him more than anything else. Making her his wife in front of everyone and making a clear statement against social norms.Regarding Pramad, I just want his episode to close soon.
