It was a good episode .It was as if all the four couples were giving us the tenets that constitute a great marriage. The scene of Ram and Sita was the first tenet-love and respect .I loved the expressions on their faces when they are interrupted by Lakhman, there was just love for him too...also the pride in her expression when a smiling Ram is observing Lakshman leave. The best message-the love in their hearts is just not for each other but embraces their family too.
The second tenet is given by Lakshman and Urmila: A full hearted acceptance of each other's duties and a promise of unconditional support to fulfill them.
The third tenet is taught by Bharat and Mandavi-a selfless giving and completing each other.
The fourth Is of course Shatrugan and Shutkirti-he gives her the gift of communication and acceptance of each other's mistakes.What a set of profound principles for marriage especially now in this era when it is losing its sanctity. Well done writers for both the the said and implied words.

P.s- loved your tribute to the brave soldiers and their families. We don't remember their sacrifices as often as they deserve.
