I think the episode has been dissected pretty well by everyone. There's just a couple thoughts I need clarity on. In Raavi's dream, even though Shiva was shown "troubling" her, it was portrayed as though he were consciously trying to take her mind off of things and bring back her ladaku avatar. Those subtle smiles and glances of Shiva. That's why I thought it's reality at first and ngl I went aww Shiva... but since it's her dream what does that mean?
Does she expect Shiva to behave that way, taunt her but also take her mind off of things? Why did she even imagine him... was she hoping for some form of company in her desolation? We've seen her zeroing in on Shiva before, when she gains consciousness after her suicide attempt... I stated in a post about that that it's like she reflexively turns to him when in turmoil. This could be me overanalysing - it's probably just the actors' prowess making me think all this and not the actual script.
I know it could very well be her assuming the worst of Shiva given current circumstances but that last shot of her swinging the wooden staff and then realising it's all in her head made me wonder if she wished he was actually there - fighting with him would be somewhat a semblance of normalcy in her upturned life.
