YHM deserves a standing ovation 👏👏👏. A standing ovation for reinforcing the fact that no matter how many bedtime stories Ishima might narrate to Ruhi, she belongs as much to Raman, as she does to Ishita. If biological relationships are anything to go by, Ruhi belongs more so to Raman, than to Ishita (not that, that is a bone of contention).

Loved, loved, loved the way Raman grabbed hold of her shoulders (reminded me of some major Desi Mills & Boon stuff) and made her see sense, that he is her father and no matter what happens, he is never, ever going to let go of Ruhi...let her be separated from them. I was getting SICK and TIRED of Ishita behaving like a majboor single parent, who did her job well...

There, Ishita..You aren't Hercules anymore. You've got Raman who's going to make the ends of the earth meet, just to keep his daughter close, with him. I am so impressed with how the CVs have brought Raman back into the limelight, and aren't content with portraying Ishita as Mother India anymore...lovely...

And what nailed the IshRa scene for me? They finally hugged...hugged like real, like they meant it in every fiber of their being, like they are in this shit together, like they will see it through together, like they have finally realized how much they need each other...and how one couldn't do without the other...even if its Ruhi ke liye..

Raman is no more the unwilling participant in Ishita's grand sacrifice-based-shoddy plans. He is back in form, and fully intends to take charge. Raman-Mihika scene is a testimony to the genuine affection and ease of conversation these two share offscreen. It was so endearing, his teaching Mihika some Punjabi tricks of throwing caution in the air, and giving the world a damn and just caring about Mihir- the guy she madly loves and doing some serious damage control by at least opening her mouth.

No more moping, no more feeling guilty, no more sympathizing. I couldn't stop grinning when IshRa started quabbling over mundane stuff like household chores..Yes..that's what real husbands and wives are made of..a lot of mushy, gushy mundane crap couched in lots and lots of teasing, eye contact, accidental' touching and coy hints..

Mihir isn't too impressed with Mihika's Idli Sambhar Vada? No surprise there!

Did Ashok look like an utter buffoon barging into Mihir's house and pretending his oxygen supply's been cut, with his bro being in the hospital? Yes!

Did Mihir scare the shit out of Ashok, more than Raman could during the Mihik-Ashok scandal? Totally! At least Ashok had the sense to shut his trap and not go on about what a great master player he is. I am loving Mihir day by day...I am seeing shades of him I'd never expected to see during the whole tenure of YHM. Awesome job! Now that we all know Suraj isn't going to leave earthly life so soon, I'm not sorry Mihir lashed out at Suraj the way he did. That jackass had it coming since day one.

Yes, Raman and Mihir should'nt have fought like hooligans right in the school premises atleast. Yes, Raman should've kept a lid on his short fuse. And oh yes, he doesn't generally think about the consequences of his irascible temper. But if he were to be meek and submissive, and thoughtful and watchful, calm and composed, calculating each and every word he spoke, would we so crazy over him? I doubt.

Shaggy is back to her cheap, manipulative, abla naari tactics. So am not surprised there. But am disappointed she forgot to mention she was the one marrying Ashok for money, and didn't give two hoots that he was a sleeping feind..I am disappointed she didn't mention that she had raised her hand at Ruhi, in full public view, with her would-be-in-laws (Suraj) scaring the shit out of poor Ruhi...

and I guess she also forgot to mention she'd have to first beg, borrow steal to take care of her humongous make-up routines and designer sarees and five-inch stilettos, before she can think of providing decently for Adi and Ruhi...and ensuring they don't end up on the streets..

Had she done that, the Judge would have got some perspective.

What stands out in my mind? Raman Kumar Bhalla, the guy who wouldn't think once before acting, but also the guy who'd lay his life for the one he loves. I am looking forward to the vengeful, bullish Raman who's going to beat the crap out of his ex-wife and show her where she stands! Go for it Raman..make Shaggy see stars in broad daylight!

Btw, can they do something about Neel's hair??? I don't care how big a lawyer he is, all I could focus on while he was dishing out legal jargons was his damn unruly hair!

Precap - When will Ruhi go back to being a child again?

LOL. thanks so much!
Actually, I was thoroughly amused when she said, "Main Ruhi ka bahut acche se dhyaan rakhungi?" I was like, really? How's that even going to be possible with her live-in partner of six years leaving her coz she's turned into a boring old hag for him???!! Where does she have the resources? Unless she plans to approach some struggling NGO looking for some footage, she wont even get help in charity!

Loved ur review!

I m not watching the show currently n m relying on ppl like u for WU of the episodes.

Now Mihir showing his true colors shutting up Ashok. 😆

I think when Mihika said he is a macho she was not lying. Mihir is more impulsive n explosive than Puttar.
Puttar became Angry Young man coz of betrayal he got but from inside he was always the sensitive kinds who cud see other peoples pain (He was really sad that he was the reason for Breaking Ishita's marriage n Amma Appa's plight in initial days f Yhm).

Ashok played a double game with Mihir- trapped his fiance n left his sister at Altar. No wonder Ashok needs to stay 10feet away from Mihir coz he might actually break his head too. 😆

Mihika said Mihir is not sensitive like Raman jiju, n hence he is not able to fightback his emotions with the current scandal. I think more than anyone else pressurizing let Mihir take a decision of what he wants if he feels like shouting at Mihika let him do it maybe that might take off some emotional burden off his chest. If Raman is giving n advice to Mihika about taking care f Mihir is gud, but she too must b made to understand her mistake (of not sharing her plan) n Mihir needs to make her understand that she shud not repeat her this mistake.

Hey Megha, thanks! There are days when YHM gets to frustrating I myself stop watching it and read WUs to keep myself afloat :p...

I am so, so impressed with Mihir beating the crap out of Suraj...I was shocked when he did that, coz that is so unlikely of him..but yeah, I guess ur right that maybe..Mihir..actually is the dormant, seething Angry Young Man and can be blind to some emotions, unlike Raman..

Remember how pissed and outraged Raman was, when Ishita was busy doing Mani-chant..no matter how angry he was, and how much he tried to get back at her for the same, he kept flitting back and forth between his hatred and disgust for her, as against his feelings for her..that was sooo painful to watch...that was more vulnerable than the shit he went thru for Shagun

But I noticed, Mihir isnt the one to think too much about feelings, emotions, love etc. when he is super pissed, super angry, super agitated..
Mihika is surely trying to do some major damage control with him..but Idli Vada Sambhar Dosa are not going to soften him up too soon..and that's quite a trait, you know..i like it actually..that he isnt acting much like a puppet who is supposed to behave and act like pre-recorded versions of male leads EVERYWHERE in Indian Telly Soaps - cheering the mahaanta of the women, while letting themselves being run over..seriously..

I am happy Raman is acting like the perfect jiju he is...but I'd have been happier had he drilled his point into Mihika'head a bit more strongly/...what's the use of being indignant with ASHOK, when SHE caused sooo much of a prob by not sharing her crappy plan with Mihir...I am not liking the pressure building on Mihir to understand Mihika, accept Mihika, forgive Mihika, cheer Mihika up..

Why dude? Is he a superhuman? Why is he supposed to do all of that when HE is also going thru shit of his own? Why not let Mihika understand her actions have far-reaching effects on Mihir? Why this crappy double game??
I'd much rather he remain sullen, pissed, withdrawn and maybe even bullish-angry..coz that's how REAL MEN are in REAL LIFE...No man will just run off to hug you and garland you after you commit stupidity of the order that Mihika has committed..no matter how much he loves you, coz his first qs will be "Why the F didnt you tell me about it? Wasn't I imp enuff to knw about it???"

About ur last para, it wud apply to a female too the questioning that y didnt u involve me. but ya I agree that Men have this need for being PROTECTIVE towards women in general.

I guess Mihika was afraid of that only n hence she went n did the plan all alone, still it was her dumbness of first degree to think she can outsmart a molester n lecher of a kind. 😕

N I agree with u let Mihir take out his frustrations on Mihika, one must make Mihika vount her mistakes too not to "make her feel guilty" but so that she doesnt repeat it n suffers again!

Here Mihir is being pressurized to understand Mihika while she goes off about it as if she wants to take decisions only as per her own wishes, recent spat between them regarding Marriage.

I like Shagun character a lot (only the character I dont mean to say I agree with her moral n ethical grounds) 😆. I really liked her guts for never say never attitude n begging n placing her plea in front f the judge today for Ruhi. She genuinely tries, quite a fighter. 😳 Even when she tries to commit suicide it is to seek attention not coz she has given up all hopes to live.

Nice post - said a lot of things that have been going through my mind since last nite BUT it's your precap post that truly caught me:
"Precap - When will Ruhi go back to being a child again?"

This kinda echoes my thoughts lately - I can't fathom the depth of adult analysis this poor little 6 yr old is expected to master 😲

Why can't she just be Ishima's bacha...

Everyone should stop using her as bait to fulfill their own end game.

She's such a cutie and plays her role so well - kudos indeed 👏

@BOLD - You're right... I meant, even in general..no man/woman would take this shit lying down and forgive and forget at the drop of a hat...

I dont even think Mihir hasn't forgiven Mihika..maybe he has..and doesnt hold a thing against her..but as a human, how can he be expected to leave behind, forget such humiliating, painful memories associated with the ONE person he loves soo much...the things people say, the countless wagging tongues, the chaos, confusion, his own vulnerability..,he's got sooo much to fight within himself!! So my deal is, give the guy a break yaar! use bhi toh thoda sa akele rehne do...use bhi sulk karne do, dukhi hone do, gussa hone do, frustrated hone do...

Though I like Raman playing the Cupid at both ends (making Mihir understand Mihika's position and vice-versa), I didnt like the "tu aurat ban jaa..pehen le haath mein chudiyaan"dialogue to Mihir..Why such sexist lines? Do the CVs think a MAN has to fulfill certain criteria to ACT like a man? As if feeling agitated, imbalanced, withdrawn and vulnerable arent things that can ever happen to men! duh!

@BOLD - I agree...:p :p

I expressed my happiness in the previous post as well, that I am happy she is the way she is..I was kind of puking when she had started to become all bumchums with Ishita (with Mihika, chalo bhabhi hai uski)..but Ishita?? Uski sauten uski best friend?? God..I almost puked at the thought...with all the crappy invitations to the hen party and her mehendi and sangeet and shaadi?? Too much to handle!

I like her better now..bitchy, mean, aggressive, and total nautanki. She is true fighter, and I admire that in her 👏

We should learn some real time management from her...she did not waste ONE single moment in expressing her heart-felt love for Ashok, and when that fell flat on her pasty face, she went ahead and tried to appeal to Suraj's non-existent softer side..and even when THAT fell flat like a pancake..she went ahead and tried to act all abla naari IN FRONT OF JUDGE DAMMIT..Now, that's called some value of time!

Really...I am sick and tired of Ruhi turning out to be kid version of her Ishima...getting all preachy and DadiMaa types..too much to handle..am already sorry she is being used as a bait by Shaggy and Ishita...Shaggy will try to grab on to her coz she wants to settle her personal scores with Raman and Ishita..

and yahaan Ishita will beat her chest crying "Ruhi, Ruhi"coz she is infertile. Wow.

I am sorry and disappointed, that in the midst of all this drama everybody's forgotten that the only selfless person who wants to win the custody case for Ruhi, is RAMAN..How can the CVs sideline that???\

I love Ruhi,,,and would love her more once she starts saying lines meant for her..
