On the discussion of if Anshuman will break Pakhi's heart or not, I'd say its a foregone conclusion that he will. He has already set things in motion for that, in her naivety she took him at face value, while he was withholding the biggest truth that he came there to get separated from her. Now when that truth will come, she's going to get the biggest unpleasant shock of her life, bcoz she trusts him to be a honest person. For a self respecting girl like her, this move then has been the biggest insult to her, bcoz if he had asked for it upfront in the 1st place, she would have signed the papers without blinking. She is going to leave him for sure, when she finds out.
So then why did he have to do all this? Why did he reach there just in time to stop her rishta to someone else? Why speak up and interrupt when the prospective groom was asking her about her hobbies? Why when he had the chance and was about to present the legal papers to her, did he lower it at the last moment? The same reason he keeps staring at his childhood marriage photo and the disturbance he experiences when she is shouted at. He involuntarily protects and cares for her, whether be it shooing away a fly, helping her into a car with the lehenga, wincing when she falls or running to get her out of harm's way due to fire. Some of it can be a gentleman's actions, but not all of it is. There is something binding them due her devotion n faith n wait of the past 18 years. He feels it too, bcoz even though he might have forgotten the wedding long back, he is still bound to her subconsciously. More importantly he needs exactly someone like her to calm him n manage his home, son n life ,more than he realizes. Besides I do think he finds her attractive n beautiful enough to lose his sense of time n place many a times already. But what stops him is that he is set in his ways, in his lifestyle, in his choice of life partner and is more aligned to his sister right now. All that's going to change slowly and gradually. By the end of it, when the truth comes out, her heart will break but so will his. My conclusion.
What I liked most about yesterday's episode, this chastised look he has on his face, whenever she is in the near vicinity. The last frame reminds me of a little school boy, tie, blazer n all eating his lunch decently with the teacher standing over him. He has all the makings of a good obedient husband already. Practice I guess from his last experience. 😃
