I've decided that I shan't discuss anything about Mastani (unless she affects Kashi). So no criticism, we've had enough if it!
Yet again, the episode starts on a cheerful note. Rakhma is such a bright colourful spark of energy in the house! I can't wait to see her scenes with Chimaji.😳
"Yeh hawa unki Khushboo Bhi udaa le jaati Hai", haha, so cute! She's complaining to the winds for they take away his scent of him. Note that Bajirao is also a storm, a wind. I think Kashi dislikes dynamic, fast moving changes. She's a 'grihast' and likes things as calm and composed rather than speedy and erratic. Naturally, she doesn't like the wind (and Baji's nature of being so fast & not stopping for anyone).
Balaji senses and realises this hence he recommends Baji to maintain his 'sukoon' till he meets her. I liked his raise of eyebrow and concern when he says 'Gaa rahi thi'. I guess he doesn't want him to repeat the mistake he did, which he highly regrets now. :(
[I'm waiting for Radhabai Balaji meet. It'll either be extremely cold or fiery and sparky.]
Back to Saswad, Radhabai instructs Kashi to stay calm and engage herself in other affairs, that is, to distract her mind so that time passes swiftly.
"Yeh intezaar Ka maanjha Bhi bada tez hota hai. Agar kheecho toh hriday kat jata Hai [please forgive me, I don't remember the exact line :p]"
The more you wait, the stronger the emotions get. And they only harm your soul.
...
Now for a very impactful scene. Bihu comes home and is excited. I loved how the Nanad - Bhabhi relationship hasn't changed, she still made it a point to taunt Kashi before running in 😆
She goes onto meet Radhabai and is rudely shocked. The warm mother and the loving shade has turned harsh & hurting.
"Jab tum kehne waale Aap bolne lage toh rishton mein Bhi aupchaarikta aa jaati Hai"
But I can fully understand Radha. She's worried, her daughter isn't conceiving and she knows her Zaavde Baapu will resort to other means to get a kid. It isn't a joke or a matter to be neglected.
She knows the disappointment, the pain when a husband resorts to other needs. And at all costs, she doesn't want the same to happen with her daughter.
Note, in those days people did get remarried to have kids.
Coming to Bihu's POV, we often mistake our parent's concern to their stubbornness. We should look deep into talks and understand that our parent's strict behaviour does not mean distancing themselves from you.
When she says : "Yahan toh sirf Peshwinbai rehti Hain. Main toh yahan apni Maa se Milne aayi thi".
It just broke my heart! Poor Radhabai, so broken and stern.😭
And I loved how Radha pointed out this :
"Prayaas se bhale hi saflta naa mile par samadhaan doondhne Ka samay aavashya mil jaata Hai". A great approach!
She wants her in laws to feel that they're genuinely trying to have a kid and his husband doesn't leave her alone.
In all this, I feel she still thinks Balaji resorted to someone else cause she wasn't sufficiently doing her job. Hence she's always extra careful and self depriciative.
...
Chimaji - our swagster! OMG what effing handsome behaviour!
"Satya se Woh log darte Hain jinka Mann saaf Nahi hota"
And there goes our Pant's mouth absolutely shut! He challenges him to openly accuse the Peshwa and he's numb. Wah!⭐️
Enough of me, what's your say? :P
