@Aani - I have been rooting for those scenes after Pervy track but I hope they show something substantial than Romika and Pervy-Simi Saga. Tired of side tracks, even Finding Fanny sequence thingy is not making me look forward, just another waste of episode.

<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif">And as for the jasoosi bit, while MiMi are already in love and all it happens for real too Vyas - family do BG checks of the boy and girl in cases of marriage, I know of someone who was duped by a guy though they dated for years at the last moment cos he started two-timing her along the way... this isnt the same thing but I hope you get my drift</font>

Ohk

Lets hope all this worthwhile

And I must add direction in last two episodes has been better and show looks controlled and not all over the place like last week and it is easier to watch

And yes anurag was one who deserved a award last night but well no worries

very well said Aani...

I love how you connected the dots and if cv's are really thinking along those lines, that would be great.
It's just I have chosen to not hope for anything right now. It almost feels like even if cv's had something great in their mind at the start, they have become confused halfway. 😆

Indeed, I too was thinking with the material & actors in their hand they still have lot to explore in the show...
If and when Subbu appears
I would like to see each and every feeling in a detailed manner,like
Ishita - Even though she feels she is over Subbu and moved on ,I think she didn't find the closure.All the feelings of betrayal,heart break are bound to come forefront if faced and interacted with him again.She may not want to react but even though she is mahaan & all since she is human too she could loose control and all those things may come crashing on her and it would be interesting to see how Raman acts then.

Raman - With Raman his biggest insecurity is his loved ones leaving him . So with the last few episodes (& with the help of yours & Ruby's analysis) we figured out that he understood Ishita has not really accepted him as a husband then if the Subbu thing comes up it sure spices up his insecurity. His nervousness,hesitation,selfdoubt ,jealousy all will surface and not to forget KP doing all these would be a treat to watch out..And when he accepts his love he is bound to be possessive.

Bravo Aani ...

Woaah ... I had the same thought ages ago when I had just started watching this series during accident track ... you reminded me of the same.

****** Edited

Aani ... hmmm food for thought ...

Like I said, it was sometime during the accident track when Mihir was being touted as the culprit and the first inkling of him being related to Raman had come out when I felt that Bala and Mihir are indeed parallels. If you remember my OS, Halachal Hui Zara Shor Hua, I had categorically made Bala as the cupid between Ishra rather than Mihir, this was one of the subconscious reasons ...

For a while, I had debated that why not let Mihir confront Raman than Bala ... and my grey cells countered that if he is related to him via Shagun then he will be too young when they got married and Raman will be an elder brother like figure for him so either of them will have a relation of mutual respect and love yet they may not be comfortable opening up to each other. Therefore, I decided for Bala.

Coming to your post, I loved your apt description. I for one thinks that it is what the story is moving towards. Remember Neil Trisha engagement and the conversation between Tandon and Ishita. That was the first ever time, Ishita had opened up about her past in front of Raman. She compared her story with theirs to bring a good ending for Mihir and Mihika as well as Neil and Trisha. Although, it was a small hint about her past, yet it was the first time ever.

Kudos to Raj for pulling off both the sides brilliantly.

The parallel between Bala and Mihir. Both of them had hard choices to make. Both of them had to go against "Blood is thicker than water.". Both of them would have gone through their set of inner turmoil. So, I think it will be a brilliant closure if something like this happens.

A true Mohabbatein which is not perfect, yet beautiful. A marriage which will will prove that people with bruised past can have a better life and a beautiful one at that. They can find and feel love.

I will now refer to one of my replies to Ruby's post .. A Tale of Two Brothers ... To save space, I request you to read my reply.

@ BOLD 2: ... heres my question .. how are the parallels there ... has BALA cut ties with his brother ..or his MOTHER the instigator of the separation of Ishita & Subbu ... ??? was it Bala who at the Iyers anniversary party stood up for Ishita .. or was it her husband who even while he detested her stood upf for her ...

But MIhir has left his family his sister & mother for the sake of an outsider .. RAMAN ... while Bala took the path of least resistance ...

Well .. Ruby. I agree to disagree and here is how. It is about circumstances.

First and foremost, I do not agree that Raman is an outsider for Mihir and here is how.

When Raman and Shagun got married, Mihir was a teenager. As a teenager, Raman was the elder brother he never had and obviously a new bond was formed in no time. Mihir slowly became an integral part of Bhalla house which was filled with siblings and relatives. Something which was definitely missing from Mihir's life as he had already lost his father and with Shagun being married, his only sibling also gone from his life. So, it is very easy for him to be get attached to them like his own family.

With passing years, things took an ugly turn between his sister and brother in law and now Mihir, who is no more a teenager could exactly make out that all this is his sister's fault. She has purposefully mortified his brother in law's life and ruined the life of her kids as well, who of course Mihir by now will adore beyond any level. He will carry this guilt with him as long as he is breathing.

Yet, he is still not that independent, a young blood and brain on top of it ... so the only way for him to prove and show his loyalty to the man whom he now respects and loves as an elder brother is denounce his relationship with his sister and accept the borrowed family. If you look at Mihir, he does not respect Raman, he worships him ... to the point that he was ready to forego Mihika as well.

Now, coming up to Bala. Bala got married to Vandu in this late twenties or early thirties, a mature man at that. (Assuming, both are professors and being a Professor's daughter, I will kill the CV's if they do not show both of them as PHD. 😆😆) So, he completely supports his brother and sister in law's relationship and is very happy, yet when it breaks at the end moment due to the cowardness of his brother, he follows a safe path.

He definitely does not support his brother. His stances time and again show that. He supports his in laws pretty well. Vandu and Bala are the most stable and normal couple in the show. He keeps a safe distance from his family altogether and supports Ishita in every which way possible. Refer to tracks where he lunged at Romy for Mihika, or when he immediately went to get a bail for Ishita or when he has a heart to heart talk with Ishita.

His strained relationship with his brother is evident even in intial episodes when Vandu confronts him that we had categorically decided that either Subbu or Ishita will attend the ceremony. He promises her that Subbu will not come, he has already talked to him. Look at the scene, when Bala finds Subbu, he never acknowledges him, he is shocked.

He is also carrying the same guilt with him that his brother ruined his sister in law's life and he tries to mend in his own way.

Moreso, I open another can of worms with this next bit.

In my personal view, what Shagun did was a crime because by choosing her other life, she not only ruined the life of Raman, but two innocent souls who will forever be pulled between two set of parents and have an abnormal childhood. In my personal opinion, a husband and wife can separate, but a mother and father cannot. It is simply cruel.

However, what Subbu did was simply cowardliness. He did not commit a crime. It was a mistake and that too is one side of the coin. If we really look at the other side, how many of us do not think of kids when we envision our lives with our partners? Lets face it. All of us do. It is simply the choice he made. He was not ready to accept an alternative ending to his happily ever after. And in my personal view, it did good to Ishita, because her truth would have surely come out eventually and that would have ruined her life in an unrepairable manner because then she will be forever stuck in a marriage where she will still hope for eternal love and support in her difficult times, but her man will no longer be able to return the same to her.

So, in my view, indeed they are parallels. Both of them went against their own blood in their own manner and supported the better halves of their siblings.
