I dont agree with you,it is not only matter between RAYA,it is a matter of sweet,innocent,loving child angel Pihoo,she is also effected.

now if it ur point then BOTH parents are wrong- priya givng up withot preparing her, sending under assumption that she will come, both love thier kids but forget that kids need parents both at same time not turn by turn

Thanks fosla!

I read your analysis and I love them, so this is very high praise coming from you.

Yep, the desire to comfort was poignant, so OBVIOUSLY there, but just not strong enough for a hug just yet. I think the hug would have been ill placed, just yet.

I'm sure it's not far, and I'll absolutely lovvveee the journey leading up to it.

Oh, and I loved him too!!!!! While I felt like giving her a comforting hug, I dunno why I felt he was more in need of one today. I could almost hear his world shaking up and going topsy-turvy, all broken. Remember when she cried on their wedding day in the car? And he totally freaked out and didn't know how to react? Well imagine him now?

Through the entire scene, I was like - She is soo much in pain, and YET one strong woman. AND He is sooo confused and baffled right now, and starting the journey to pain, to eventual realization, and then forgiveness.

This is one SWEET show, when Ekta isn't messing it up.

(I hope I don't mess up with the name again!)

Iam loving this week since it has finally post Monday been about just RaYa! Yes there is more of a mother vs a father cum husband's turmoil. But the direction is right. They are heading towards something hopefully meaningful. Couldn't agree more that this is a SWEET show when not messed up!

I liked the tone of how things were done. Nothing OTT! Just being so easy and realistic that one could relate to!

They both are in so much pain! The RK that I know would hand back Pihu in a few days! I hoper there is closure to their hurt in the right way and not a compromise

This isn't an episode analysis, per say. I never do any such analysis as a topic, but I just had to get my thoughts out this one time.

My God, I don't think I've seen a better performance on TV before! When Priya called Ram on teh phone, I felt like she was EVERY MOTHER personified in that scene. I totally worry like this when my son goes to my sister's house for a sleep over. I call late at night to have him checked ... I stay up the night worrying, so for the sake of my sanity, my husband has cancelled all sleep overs :) ...

In this case, it was forced. The gut wrenching, blood curling, heart stopping pain a mother feels at having to accept that your child will not be sleeping with you, is NOTHING. It's NOTHING, compared to the knowledge that your child is scared, somewhere, all alone. And THAT is what Priya is feeling. That mind numbing, endless dark pit filled with panic and pain, but worse of all, the helplessness. Of not being able to do anything about it.

As children, we believe our parents are all knowing, all seeing, and all protecting. As parents, we sort feel that way about our kids too. We're territorial, we yell, we discipline, we love, we protect. But WE do it all. Now, if that equation changes, if WE are not there ... well, who's protecting our children?

I remember, once, in a B&N store, I lost my 2 yr old for all about 5 minutes. I aged 20 years in those 5 minutes. I imagined ALL SORTS of scary and ridiculous things that could happen to him in those 5 minutes. Not because he wasn't with me, but because I didn't know if he was scared, or he knew where he was, or if he was hurt, etc. And THAT is what Priya is feeling. She doesn't know if Pihu is scared, well actually she does. She KNOWS she's scared. But if she doesn't know if her fear has been addressed. She doesn't know if someone is there to watch over her when she wakes up in the middle of the night. She doesn't know if she heard her bedtime story. She doesn't know if she was tucked in. She doesn't know, she just doesn't know ...

And Pihu - she doesn't know. She doesn't know why mommy isn't there. She doesn't know why she has to stay here. She doesn't know why all this sudden change. She just doesn't know.

And it's THAT knowledge, the knowledge that Pihu doesn't know, doesn't understand, that has Priya all the more scared. Am I making sense? Am I relating to, atleast, the mommy's out there? Or am I just rambling in an emotional state?

The last scene - My Lord! I have no words. When she chokes up on her tears, saying she KNOWS Pihu hasn't slept w/o her, she KNOWS she's used to hugging her to bed, she KNOWS Pihu isn't used to life w/o her ... All I have to say is - I don't think there was any fake tears in that scene - I don't think Sakshi would've needed them. I bet she cried during and after that scene was real. I'd love to see the SBS or making of that scene.

This woman - she's magic. The flabbergasted Ram, that was another plus. Poor guy didn't know what to do, or how to do it even if he knew what to do :). Loved it. A very genuine reaction for an estranged hubby. I know many wanted to see the hug - I say ... keep it at bay for now. Builds are anticipation. It'll come, in due time. And it'll be all the more coveted and cherished due to the wait. But Ram's attempts at consolation weren't gone unnoticed. He did want to do SOMETHING to make the situation better. Just didn't know what. He's not doing this out of spite - he truly wanted his daughter. Just not at the price it came with. Which he's slowly, but surely, realizing. What's helping is Priya not acting all witchy, or fighting him. She didn't say 'I can't live w/o her', or 'I came to see if she's okay coz I couldn't sleep'. She said 'Pihu may be scared', or 'here're her friends who'll keep her company at night', or 'I'm giving you my life, take care of her'. There was no taking back, or whining, in any of her attitude or dialogue.

And THAT is the Priya I fell in love with. THAT is the Priya Ram fell in love with. And is STILL in love with, as she knows very well. He just hasn't gotten over his anger just yet.

Okay, I can go on and on some more but I"ll end this here. Just had to write this up. Let me know what you guys think. It's not much of an episode analysis, just ramblings.

Love,

Haya - A Big hug to u for this beautiful post...Sakshi & Ram were simply superb today...and for me the last scene made up for this weekend...!! As a mom myself, I could relate to Priya's turmoil and her emotions...and how well has she portrayed it...Nothing OTT. Priya's emotions were very genuine..I was moved by the Mom's emotions..& the helpless Dad & husband's emotions too..Ram Kapoor..what was awesome actor he is..Loved his expressions and how he so wanted to console Priya..but doesn't know how..!! 👏👏

Thanks for the lovely post.

It was wonderfully balanced and so true to the situation, You explained the circumstance between a so much in love couple very well. I liked the way you analysed both Ram and Priya without any biases. That's why some of us love both Ram Priya and Ram Sakshi both together.

Both the characters have their strong and weak points. Thats what completes them together.

You need to write more often...:) .

Hi haya! I am just dumbstruck at your ability to comprehend the episode,characters and story at large.i am sure,your post clearly gives a new dimension to most of ours' interpretations of characters now. still marvelled to see how you beautifully glorified those two lovable duffers(dont u actualy think they are,hehe:-)),without bashing either of them.of course,i am excited for the reunion,but somewhere i dont want it to happen very soon.i want the journey to be slow,beautiful and consistent.perhaps,cvs are on a right track this time atleast,after ages.again loved ur posts to bits.pls,pls write more often.such compositions are badly needed in the ra v/s ya debates that happen mostly here.again a big thanks for this.

Thanks for the hug!! 🤗 Right back at you :)

Yep, loved Ram's expressions, and you are right - he doesn't need words to emote or display the multitude of emotions he's going through - he just does it with his face.

Priya's emotions sure were genuine. If she was a mother, I'd say she let the mother come out. So all the more praise to her for pulling this w/o being one. She was amazing.

And you're right, it did make up for the whole week. Heck, even for next week for me :).

And you're right again - nothing OTT. I think THAT is what had me floored. I never, ever, watch sad scenes over and over - I just get worse and worse with my tears with each rerun. But this one warranted it. It was just that great. My lord, I just saw myself there. It was as if there was no acting, just a wife having a conversation with her hubby while she's freaking out about her daughter.

It's for scenes like this that you wanna say 'jitni bhi tareef karen, kum hai'

Thanks for the post!
