The divorce papers have done the trick, or so it seems. ππ
Anger is sometimes the only way we can convey to somebody else EXACTLY what we think, and that is what the divorce papers have triggered in Sid, the "badtameez-Sexyface syndrome". π
For weeks SR fans and general neutral party DMG fans have sat biting their nails, pulling their hair out at Sid's amicable, tranquil attitude towards the 'Armaan and Riddhima situation' which left all sickly frustrated. This approach kept leading to soft spoken questions, misconstrued assumptions and a "I feel sorry for myself but worse for them" attitude. Oh my god- MAN UP SIDDHANT! Give him Riddhima's dupatta and choodiyan purlease. Ok, harsh, he is a good guy etc etc and he was doing whatever he thought was right...nonetheless
I really was beginning to miss our mischievous, rude,
obnoxious little brat.. and so I relieved myself of exam stress by doing a
celebratory dance when I saw the precap for today's episode. π₯³<<< (me)
R-R-Reewind!
Where it all started:
But first, general pointer from today's episode:
Just a passing comment on Sid's terrace scene today where it sank in that Riddhima had signed the divorce papers, note the similarity in Armaan's behaviour when he had found out about the SR marriage and had gone to the terrace too. Note how they both:
Shout and scream, curse and generally direct blame and anger towards the skies. Yes those are our two cuties, both doing the same thing at different times, a time where Riddhima was the most important thing in their lives and the realisation was kicking in that they were going to lose her. This is just my own personal link on the direction and the character's behavioural quirks so I thought I'd share it.
Getting back to today.
I was incredibly happy today as a few days ago in one of my posts I had mentioned that although Sid had sent the divorce papers, there was a part of him that prayed Riddhima didn't sign them. I am glad it was clarified in the episode today in Sid's own words. It made perfect sense that he wanted her to himself, no matter how much he was pushing her away to Armaan. And then, in his thoughts Sid argues, "tum hamesha kehti thi ke Armaan tumhara ateet hai" then why did you sign the papers?
Et voila! It would be so pitiful for Sid to have lost all common sense that the jigsaw pieces all fit back into place-perfectly. π
I felt so bad for Riddhima. Time and time again, like a broken record she would confirm that her future lay with Sid alone, she could never be with anyone else, they were married. End of. Then she was repeatedly confronted by a hopeful Armaan who would then go on to declare his love for her. It was awkward, especially for a married woman, especially for Riddhima who did not want to keep telling Armaan it was over, and yes I know he was her first love but subjectively looking at it through only Riddhima's point of view, culture, tradition and morals are priority. Even Armaan knew her well enough to realise that she would never compromise her values and sign the papers. Then why was it he was proved wrong? Why was it that Riddhima was provoked?π‘
Because of Siddhant, his ignorance and consistent encouragement to Armaan made it unbearable for Riddhima. Sid would act upon what he felt he wanted to hear rather than what he actually heard. Riddhima would literally spell it out to him and he would act in the extreme adverse way. And for Riddhima, it was the last straw, it implied to her that Sid regretted his decision of marrying her, which is why he sent the papers, and she signed them because she doesn't want to burden him with a relationship he is so willing to break. π³
Note: Sid gives Riddhima a divorce because he feels it is what she wants.
Riddhima signs the papers because she believes it is what Sid wants.
Neither of them want a divorce, Riddhima looks at the wedding photo and Sid well just watch the terrace scene from today!
How ironic it is that he has the answer to his own question, and now that the "damage has been done", he acknowledges it. But. he has not accepted it yet...He feels as if he has been taken for a ride, note the difference in attitude where initially he says to Armaan that he was a "mistake" in Riddhima's life but later on the terrace he begs to differ. He is angry, he does not want to think of himself as a mistake because he knows that Riddhima herself gave him the permission to fall in love with her, so why sign the papers and change their relationship, why does she try to confuse him so?π‘π₯Ί
He has questions and off he goes our angry young man to get his answer.
The precap- Sid states to Riddhima that a signature on the front page alone is inadequate and in order to finalise the divorce she needs to sign the rest of the pages.
So me thinkst, its another test only for Riddhima, do you know how long it took Riddhima to sign the first time, and this is in solitude when she was only considering Sid's flaws and anger overcame her.
Now she will have Sid's huge intimtdating eyes on her whilst she considers signing aggressively almost breaking the nib of the pen and smacking it back into his face. The question is, will she be able to push herself hard enough to disguise the apprehension of repeating the dreaded journey of potential separation to someone who she really doesn't want to break away from? I sense fireworks between the two tomorrow, good or bad, only time will tell.
Part II- you sent the divorce papers through your boyfriend...I mean your ex.
π Wow wee, my jaw almost hit the ground! I mirrored Riddhima's expression π², "the audacity! How dare you?! Tumhari yeh himaat ke tum mujhse is tarah baat karo" Only I was a lot happier about itπ³π. Euch I was sick of their politeness towards one another, it just isn't them. Sid needed to make such a comment, I hope a flurry of anger and the truth is revealed. π
Today I saw some progression. For the past few episodes there have been nothing but a series of unfortunate events and misunderstandings and it is due to another of these that Riddhima signs the papers. Only now Sid has realised it, he knows that his love for her is not unrequited so what was she thinking when she made her decision.
Just to confirm: I support both couples but I would rather that the ultimate decision for whichever is chosen is due to a realistic reason and not a misunderstanding.βοΈ
