Copying from another thread...
Totally filler episode but important as it set stage for new tracks.
1) Kanchan finally openly rebels- I have been waiting for this. I understand Gayatri, she is a broken woman but when we talk of Kanchan who is a modern educated girl, I have failed to understand why she would be scared of Devi's threats of sending her back home or want to stay in this toxic household. If her relationship with Yash is great, she has nothing to fear and if it is bad then she has even more no reason to stay. What is preventing her from restarting her life, she is pretty, she is capable and she is young. Loved how she offered to leave the household herself leaving Devi shocked. She also mentioned that someone needs to set Devi right - I wonder who it will be Anokhi, Astha or Shagun or all of them. Maybe it is Shaurya who will finally deliver her just desserts. Tej seemed thoughtful, I am constantly left wondering if he is unaware of what is and has been happening in the household or if he knows and is supportive of Devi.
2)Devi is a master manipulator- We all knew this but she does not share truth with anyone and everyone is a pawn to her. She sent Shagun to restaurant without telling why Shaurya was truly there. With her spying and manipulation skills, I would say Devi is in the wrong job, she should have been serving her country in secret services.
3)Babli- Now we know how Babli ends up going to Goa. Vineet gave her permission to work in his greed. All the more reason for Vineet to exploit and abuse Babli. Good news is now she does not have to hide and work. Given Vicky and she are going to be partners, they are going to come close. Also Vineet is going to use every means to squeeze every bit of money from her.
4)Anokhi was super shocked- Anokhi finally got to know the truth about Shagun being Shaurya's ex-fiancee. The poor girl was shocked and berated herself for dreaming of Shaurya's interest in her. She felt used (kahin apna akelapan door karne ke liye to nahin baat karte the) and insecure (she found herself wanting when compared to Shagun) with Babli's words ringing in her ears. Realistically speaking Shaurya is 29 years old and she is 19 years old. Since this was her first love/crush, she probably never considered that Shaurya at his age might have already had a few crushes or potential relationships. She needed to awaken to that truth. I hope the show continues to highlight different experiences and expectations both the leads have given where they are in their life in terms of success and age. She was further crushed when she saw what was happening in restaurant though it was totally co-incidental. I did like that she mentioned she should clarify her doubts Shaurya directly and trust him. Whatever anyone else says truly has no bearing on their relationship. My guess is when Shaurya confesses, she will be shocked but probably willing to consider him. Hats off to Reema, the most sane person in the entire show and true love guru to Anokhi.
5) Shaurya and Shagun- Besharmi ki bhi koi had hoti hai. It is people like Shagun who give people like Devi their power. Shagun knows Shaurya well and knows all the right buttons to press, she knew that Shaurya would not be able to resist a challenge and that is how it went down. It also did not seem unusual to me that they knew things about each other and had an innate comfort with each other. They were family friends and later lovers engaged to be married. Shaurya continued to draw the line through out the dinner and emphasize that there was no way to revive the relationship but Shagun kept pushing. Shagun is Raghav Rao's definition of "Chipku Ladki". He was distracted through out the dinner checking his phone again and again and worrying about Anokhi.
So far I did not see Ahir in the picture. I do not see him come back into equation so soon atleast.
I like the way this ended up playing. Exes are not an easy conversation especially in a new relationship or first few dates. You are busy building your relationship instead of talking about the past. There would have been no reason and no way for Shaurya to broach the topic with Anokhi in near future easily given that he is clear about his priorities and feelings and he sees Shagun as mere colleague and friend. From his perspective Shagun should have no bearing on his and Anokhi's relationship. He might have also dilly-dallied on sharing his feelings starting with confessing liking and not loving. This incident forced him to blurt out not only his past but his love for Anokhi in moment of desperation as seen in precap. In other words Anokhi now knows what he means and feels. She has to decide if she can live with it but there are no chances of an MU short term. Given that all the truth is out in open between the ML and FL, they can either paint the town red or opt for secret dating. I think it will be latter. I think Shaurya will be frustrated with the secrecy given his possessiveness and Anokhi will have to deal with Shagun's constant advances on Shaurya. The prospect makes me excited for the show.
