Wow, actually kind of disappointed but the episode was okay overall.

IPK now has its own, "Some time ago" thing. It asks the question, will Advay save Chandni from trouble? (Yes, he will)

Chandni and Indrani talk. She doesn't want to go on the date. She is scared of leaving the house. Indrani assures her that she'll be fine. She's going with her husband-to-be. Chandni still isn't comfortable, Indrani can see this. Her expression changed for a blink. It became motherhood. Indrani says that she can call her if she is bothered and she'll come pick her up. Chandni goes at Indrani behest. Indrani was successful. Indrani was clever to use the mother card and ask Chandni if she trusted her. She took away Chandni's reason to refuse.

The scene moves to Chandni coming in a red sari. First of all, what happened to Shirali? I think she has a fever, because that sari actually looks good. Fashion is so much more bearable it seems. PP is grinning like a creeper.

Side Note: Why do the transition zoom-in sound so mechanical?

Indrani says that she believe tonight will be a very special night for both of them. The music implies otherwise. We know that Chandni is in trouble. I agree with Indrani though, but not for Indrani or PP, but AdvNi shippers everywhere. It'll be a beautiful night where we get a meaningful hug from Dev and Chandni.

PP walks out with Chandni, Advay sees this. In the next scene, Advay is livid. He throws something against his mirror. His reflection becomes distorted. It's his true self in the mirror. A disfigured man who was once Dev. Nani questions what making Dev so angry, he wanted to hurt Chandni so why is there so much pain for him? Nani asking real questions. Advay's says he's not in pain but feeling regretful that people like the Vashisths exist. To me, it looks like Advay is getting possessive but he doesn't want to admit it to Nani. That he cares about Chandni.

In the next scene, our Niru Mama interrogates Indrani. Indrani committed a crime that day 16 years ago. He reveals what happened 16 years ago. What Chandni saw and did was all according to Indrani's plan. She thought she saw Mahantani flying when it was just some random person hanging with Mahantani's clothes. They made it seem like Chandni saw Mahantani flying this way. It was necessary to have Chandni's testimony if they want to prove Mahantani does black magic. After all, kids don't necessarily lie.

Side Note: I mean not all children are honest. But I guess the show is trying to say that Chandni is pure and she wouldn't lie about something this big.

Mahantani died because of Indrani. And alongside her death, she killed Chandni's childhood. Indrani is branded a murderer by Niru.

That day, Indrani manipulated Chandni into revealing where Dev and Miku were hiding. Behind Chandni's back, she sent people to get Dev.

I love how the frame shows us Indrani's face. She is not bothered. She is unflinching to hearing her crimes being laid out to her by Niru. I love Niru for this. I hope nothing happens to him. I hope he reveals the truth to Dev.

In a different scene, Advay tells Nani might just be worse than they know. Nani is unfaltered. She has faith in Chandni's innocence. Nani served her purpose. She guides him to taking the first step.

Niru brings the gravity of Chandni's life. Her father doesn't remember her face, her best friend has left her, and the mother she worships has sold her off.

Indrani lists her good deeds to Niru and all she has done for Chandni and this family. Indrani reveals that she might have raised Chandni, but Chandni is not her daughter. Many speculated as much, there is your confirmation.

Indrani says that raising Chandni like her own was a simple favour. And now she asks for the fruit of her deeds. No one can stop Indrani. She will get what she wants. Or so she thinks.

The scene moves to PP and Chandni on their date. It's unusually dark. PP says he has a surprise for her. He calls people out and it turns into a disco club night. Chandni is tormented by everyone who seem to be harassing her. Chandni is frozen. Her social anxiety kicks in. She is unable to anything as she is pushed around. Chandni remembers her kidnapping. The trauma. She is brought back to that time with flashbacks. Chandni calls out to Dev, and he hears her. Dev sense Chandni is in trouble. They have a telepathic connection.

Notice how Chandni calls for Dev first before trying to get in contact with Indrani. This means that Dev is more important to Chandni than Indrani. Chandni tries to call Indrani, but she doesn't pick up and throws her phone away.

In this time Advay calls Chandni, she picks up and tries to speak but is pushed. The phone falls out of her hand and breaks. Chandni is almost falling over. Advay calls out to Chandni. He becomes worried for her.

PP seems to be having fun. They help him. They allow his to take Chandni to the is takes room. What sleaze bags. Well I guess a kameena can't be friends with dignified people.

PP takes Chandni to a room. Chandni wants to go home. PP tells her to relax. He said he'll get her something. PP leaves and Chandni feels faint. She is having trouble getting up. She is about to fall over when Advay catches her. Chandni is unconscious.

The scene goes back to PP boasting to his friends. Nothing big other than the idea that they call him PP Baba, which is creepy enough from his mother but his friends too? Weirdos.

PP goes back to Chandni to find that she isn't there. Advay has taken her. PP looks for Chandni.

Advay and Chandni are outside. Advay tries to wake up Chandni. Chandni awakens to mutter that she's afraid of water. She is frightened.

Chandni goes into Advay's arms. She hugs him. He doesn't hug back. Advay reassures her that PP didn't touch her. Chandni parrots him. She is referring to her kidnappers. They locked in a room for three days. Chandni begins to narrate her trauma to Advay. The feelings and how they tormented her. When she came back, everyone started taunting her. They called her badnaam. She's afraid. Afraid of it all. Of closed rooms, people, water.

And just then, Dev hugs her. Not Advay, but Dev. Chandni says she's afraid that she'll drown. Chandni faints in his arms. Dev remembers the good times, the times they played together. Dev thinks of Nani's words. Dev, for the first time, is thinking in Chandni's point of view. Remembering Nani's words proves this. This event will go a long way for Chandni innocence and relationship with Advay. The first step that Advay takes to Dev.

This incident is probably what turns Advay from being a villain to an anti-hero. Up till now, he's been acting like a villain. Plotting like a villain. Hurting Chandni and her family at every given moment. Taunting Chandni. But now, Advay is the hero. He saved Chandni. He felt her and that she is in trouble. He is bringing her home. This makes Advay the anti-hero. Finally, Advay has been made into an anti-hero.

In the next scene, Niru is still pleading for Indrani to stop all this. Indrani knows PP's intentions with Chandni and still let her go alone with him. Chandni became Indrani's daughter sure enough, but Indrani couldn't become Chandni's mother.


Indrani explains to Niru that all she has done, everything they have is because of her. She gave him wealth, status, respect. If Indrani committed this crime, then they ate the fruit of what it entailed. The luxury of her sins. They are all equally guilty. You know, Indrani is not wrong. They all bear her sin, Ranjeet, Shakun, Kajal and Niru. They are equally guilty. That's a fact since they all played a part, some actively and others in silence.

In the Precap, PP comes home. Shikha, Meghna and Veer inquire where Chandni is. Pratham explains that he doesn't know, she was feeling feverish and then disappeared. Just then Advay is seen carrying an unconscious Chandni in his arms.

Like I said, the episode was good but I really wanted Advay and to Bahubali punch PP for trying to rape Chandni.

Before I forget, I'd like to say that Indrani is really doing a good job at being an Antagonist. I said before that the main antagonist of the story, who might be Indrani, has to play a part in moving the story willingly or unwillingly. It's because of Indrani that Advay takes the first step to being Dev and saving Chandni. With the guidance of Nani as the moral compass. He is starting to see Chandni differently.

What did you guys think of the episode?

Great analysis Jesal!! i think pp baba getting beaten by advay would have made the epi even better but i thought that there was already too much happening today! so maybe that is saved for another day?

also any speculations where the cvs might take this? do you think indrani is playing a double game and trying to trap advay also as many people are speculating? how will advay get married to chandni?

Thanks for analysis of the episode, I Think Indrani is too clever enough to know and see Clearly that A stranger wouldn't pay their debts without good reasons. And I guess She has plans for Advay and bringing PP and his Mother is a Part of her Scheme . By the way thanks again for writing such a good review.

The story is moving at the pace no one can complaint. Most of the past is out. Now only thing remaining is how does it come forward to Dev and what will be his redemption. That is the track i am waiting for. Barun Sobti is very good in enacting that.
Next in line is Ritu Shivpuri. Who would know that the lal dupatta girl has the talent of such high calibre. 👏👏👏 Her very sane and sombre avatar despite her being one of the darkest antagonist is something to root for.

Dev now knows about her abduction. Advay restricted himself to hug her back but when Dev took over he could not just hold back. The pain on his face tells us that the wall that he has build around himself is shaken. It does not have holes yet but its shaken. A good start. 👏 ⭐️ Both Shivani and Barun aced that scene. ❤️ I am glad that Dev did not find PP in the room. Else another misunderstanding would have been created. 😆 so am not complaining that he punched PP or not. PP for sure is going to be kicked though😛

PP and his friends- Birds of same feather flock together. 😈 🤢

Nice analysis Jesal. 👍🏼

Hi Jesal,

Another wonderful analysis as usual. 👏Sorry i didn't reply to your post on your previous thread as i only just read it a lil while ago and also since i was busy writing my own sooper lengthy analysis.😕
I do agree with most of the things you mention but perhaps have a slightly different take or maybe a glaringly different take to yours 😆

I loved the analogy of the broken mirror and distorted identity. Simply mind blowing yet again 👏👏. You seem to have a Nani wali perceptivity to these scenes. Now in hind sight tho, I think they were trying to draw a similar parallel in the initial promos, where Advay in his bearded look in standing in front of a broken mirror , looking at his distorted image in the middle of a draught ridden parched land.

Well TBH i loved todays episode 😳, for various reasons that i ve mentioned in my post, SO do read it if you find a min. I wud really appreciate your feedback on my take 😃

you are disappointed he didn't punch PP , HAHAHA 🤣 such a typical blokey thing to say. Simply loving your take HAHAH!!!🤣 I am sure he will , maybe in the next few days. I do have faith in DEV !! 😉

I guess you have answered my earlier question , about what you make of Advay with the title of your post " Villain turned Anti Hero"
So you did initially believe that Advay was very much Villain like. I am glad that you found him Villian like as one can easily mistake him to be a Villian , what with all the badass dialogues he comes up with. 😆

But from a woman's perspective, I would have called him a anti hero from day 1, only because no matter what he says or does, he is dignified and never crosses the line. He is not sleazy , far from it actually. He is curt, blunt and ill mannered sometimes. But yet there is a honestly about him which puts him more in the anti hero zone rather than the out and out villain zone IMO.

I wud like to speak more about this later. I have to really go now.
So thanks again for your amazing analysis and for providing a insight that is so out of the box and refreshing.

Cheers, Chitra

Thank you! Also, did you become a SM? Congrats!!! 🥳

Hopefully tomorrow because I really wanted to see Advay beating PP.

No, but I think that would be epic. That would make Indrani above Advay. I was wondering if Advay will buy Chandni off of Indrani. That's my theory.

Who knows how they'll get married. Maybe Indrani will force Chandni to marry Advay.

thanks! i became a senior member today only! yes.. i also thought that advay buying chandni off is a possibility.. sounds sleazy but feels in line with indrani's newly revealed vileness... i think indrani currently is above advay because while he maybe villainish, he has some moral compass but for indrani nothing matters... so indrani is much more dangetous to advay than vice versa right now.. this has to change eventually.. how will he take revenge otherwise!!

The idea that Indrani is manipulating Advay is probably better for the story. Sure it makes sense why she let him in the house, but it makes you question why Indrani made a deal with the Prajapatis in the first place? That seems too elaborate. Maybe she will try to use Advay. Indrani is the vamp. She has to be a worthy adversary for Advay to create a conflict.
