Finally saw d episode n it was quite good. The transition from comedy to serious issue was nicely done.
Firstly I will talk about gifts.😛
Raman's gift was quite emotional one n Ishita's practical. It kinda suits their personalities.😳
I think Raman is more emotional n sensitive n Ishita more rational of the two.
I liked Raman's gift more than Ishita coz it was about her utmost happiness.😳Wud have preferred Ishita giving a better gift than an office renovation but may be Ishita is not good at expressing romantically.
I agree with u Vyas that a woman needs to be wife first n then DIL n lastly a mother coz that is the order - you marry a man then become connected to his family n then a mother. I think just coz one is a mother doesnt mean u must shy away from ur responsibility as a wife. Responsibility of a wife doesnt stop at cooking n taking care of husband but also being with him emotionally. I guess Ishita is other way coz she was a mother first, then became a DIL n then a wife. So her list of priorities have always been like that. But in today's episode Ishita was right that it wud have looked awkward if Ishra spent time in HM suite with family below.😆
Intimacy I think will come much later not so soon, there will b talks and lots of failed attempts.😛
I can c Raman as a good n supportive husband n good son in law but rarely a good father? This is the major complain I have with CVs. Raman even though "neglected" Ruhi for 6years we could see he loved her. He tried to help her with lice in her hair or taking her to dentist or even talking with her over phone when she was sent away to Shagun's. So basically he ignored her coz her mole reminded of Shagun but never disowned her- he always thought about her. N he didnt wanted to b too close to Ruhi as he feared that fate might take her away from him just as Adi went. So I dont take that BS that Raman is a bad father n Ishita a good mother (she is a good mother n every credit needs to be given to her for raising Ruhi as her own child although she is not her biological daughter). But having said all that Raman too loves Ruhi a lot n he should not b used just as a prop but as a father in storyline.
Same applies to Adi Raman bond. It needs to b developed over Ishita Adi bond. Shagun was always shown as a neglecting parent (Adi uniform and 30k episode). Earlier it was ok for Shagun to neglect n forget about Adi coz Ashok's servants cud cook him meals here Shagun needs to take care of that on her own. In the precap they could have shown Raman getting Adi chinese over Ishita n Raman taking care of Adi n Adi realizing Raman's goodness over Shagun. CVs need not make it a comparison between Shagun n Ishita for who is a good mother? That fact is already established. We all know its Ishita n we need not see Ishita Adi bonding when actually they shud b showing Raman Adi bonding. I think Ishita Adi bonding shud come later once CVs have established Raman Adi bonding.
In today's episode Amma n Toshiji barged in between Ishra discussion n took Ishita's side. I guess Toshiji's priorities lie in GKC then Ruhi then Ishita n then Raman. Its surprising that each time she praises Ishita it is forgotten n only her GKC jaap is remembered. If Toshiji was blind to "Male heir" n importance of their position in family - she would not have reprimanded Raman for accident track or Ruhi custody case 2 or today n sided with her Bahu. She wud have blindly supported Raman. The reason she is worried for Adi is also coz of the fact that he has been influenced by Shagun n she wants Adi back in Bhalla family so he has a normal childhood - maybe thats a reason she blindly agrees to Adi's wishes. Overall she does have certain shortcomings but she supports her Bahu a lot over her own son which usually one wud not find in an Indian family.
