Hi Viji,
Sorry for the delay but had a busy day.
I loved today episode they are taking the track nicely both from Raman and Ishita side.
Note: Officially all the couples have separated in YHM except Bala and Vandu because they have gone missing😆
Coming to the episode
Ishita tolerance level to bear the pain is full and she is erupting like a volcano
Adi tells Aliya that Ishita walked out of the house. Aliya cannot believe that her amma broke the home Adi tells her that she is not wrong this time as she is hurt too much. Aliya tells him she will talk to amma. Shagun comes there and asks Aliya is it true Pihu told me that IshRa are separated Aliya doesn't answer Shagun goes on about how bad Raman is and she tells her that she will come with her. Aliya denies but Shagun reminds her that she is a key player in helping Ruhi and Pihu is also upset as they both are her daughter she will come and see them. Aliya takes her along but in the parking lot Shagun feels dizziness and is taken to the hospital(I feel Shagun scene was not needed at all. She is not white but she is like YHM 1 grey shade Shagun even when she helps someone she looks out for herself first that is why she used Ruhi this time to achieve what she wanted)
Appa tells Bhallaji to share his room(I was thinking what do you mean share my room there where would your wife go or is the iyers staying in separate room😕. I get the answer in next scene) Amma moved into Bhalla house because appa did not stand with her and supported Ishita. Toshjii also says why does Bhallaji have to move out to support Ishita. They are saying to them that there husband will come crawling back as they cannot live without them( I wanted to ask amma that just because appa did not support you in one decision you walked out but you are lecturing your daughter who walked out after taking in so much taunts and thrown out of the house for almost no fault of her repeatedly)
Ruhi/Pihu scene was good - A big sister taking care of her little sister. Pihu is sad that her parents are separated Ruhi assuring her everything would be back to normal(Typical kids reaction for parents separation)
Ishita sense Romi uneasiness and she says to him I know you support me you don't have stay in discomfort to prove that Romi says to her that is okay I'm with you I know why you are doing it you are doing it to change bhai so slight discomfort is okay we will change bhai. Ishita doesn't respond(This is where one thought stuck to me yesterday and today everyone else keep saying to Ishita you are doing it to change bhai some are with her like Romi and some are against her like Mihika but she did not reply to anyone that she is doing this to change Raman she was silent . My theory is that she is not doing it to change Raman to bring him in correct path she is very much hurt and gave up on the relationship she is not expecting anything from Raman but the people surrounding her all thinking that she is doing this to change Raman no one realizes her hurt is too deep it is upto Raman to realize how broken she is and he needs to fix it)
Raman comes with a toothache into the living room. Mihika is worried and goes to get the pain killer. Romi comes in worried but Raman says to him he is faking it so that Ishita will come. The only problem is who is going to tell Ishita in walks Neelu Raman and Romi do a drama and send her to Ishita. Raman then tells to Romi see now she will coming running to me as she loves me a lot but doesn't say often and he imitates Ishita saying Raman what did you eat, you behave like kid then she will say the brother join and say Ayyo Murgan. They are laughing at how gullible Ishita is and Raman starts the count down for her and the door opens he is confident that Ishita will walk in but in Walks Neelu. She gives the tablet to him he asks her did Ishita not come she says no and gives a note. Raman tells Romi it might be a love letter Romi opens it and tells him that his stars are wrong that is why bhabi sent a bill. Romi is appalled at the amount his bahai charges😆. Neelu asks shall I bring water Raman bites her head off and sends her. (I liked the scene because of all three Raman,Romi and Neelu everyone acted perfectly👏)
Ishita is in amma kitchen she is thinking out loud I know you don't have pain you are doing it so that I would come back but I had enough I am not falling for your tricks and she consoles herself saying she is doctor and she sent the medicine then her thoughts turn to worry what if he is suffering in pain genuinely that is when she cuts her finger (Well done CV for simple execution of the scene👏👏 They brought the small nuances of why Ishita is doing this she has crossed the stages beyond hurt, she doesn't want to come back and hurt herself more but at the same time she still loves him and cannot stand to see him in pain as she cannot go to sooth his pain gave pain to herself unknowingly )
Raman in the room cannot understand why Ishita sent him a bill and he throws his one liner about she eating food in his house(I felt this was a cheap shot it was not funny at all at this time) Romi tells him that you were confident that bhabi would come back by evening but looks like it is not going to happen Raman is asking what to do just then ACP calls he says to Raman that his fiance wants to meet both of them Raman makes a plan to bring Ishita back using ACP and his fiance He says to him that he would send where to meet for dinner. He tells to Romi that everybody would be back to their house by his drama after the dinner.
Raman rings the Iyers bells and hope Ishita opens the door. Ishita opens the door and he wishes he asked for something. Raman tells her he knows she is annoyed with him but he wants a favor Ishita says to him that she is not coming back he replies immediately that he did not come to bring her back Ishita face falls hearing this He tells her that ACP wanted to meet him for dinner Ishita denies first Raman tells her that ACP helped them a lot in Ruhi matter it is a small way of saying thanks to him she agrees he asks her that ACP doesn't know about they being separte so asks to maintain the status go she agrees he tells her he will pick up at 8 and she closes the door. He wonders why she is angry this much(I was dude she literally spelled out what hurt her and he is thinking why she is angry so nothing what Ishita said has gone into Raman brains)
ACP/Divya come to the restaurant Diya is excited about the couple. She is brimming with enthusiasm to meet a idle couple. She ask them is it love at first site Raman replies yes and Ishita replies it was hatred at first Ishita says no we are not ideal, Raman says they are in so much love Ishita says only love is not enough Raman says Ishita came into my life uninvited and she is hurt more hearing those words but she changed my life Ishita says to him that she did not change him because anger is still there which destroys everything Raman says love is still there Ishita says to her it is not bed of roses and it is difficult to adjust with a person Raman says to her that if love is there every other difficulty can be overcome. He even praises himself saying that only because of him that romance is alive in their marriage Ishita is getting by this he continues saying that he has recorded all the memories. Divya asks to share ACP says its personal Raman says it okay and looks at Ishita and says to her
I Love you I know I need not say it
I am fine when you are with me
I am angry when you are not with me
You are my heartbeat
I am just yours and only yours
I did a mistake and I will apologize for the life time
Don't leave me I love you JKR
Ishita is moved to tears with this speech but she is hesitant to accept it as she is not sure whether he is doing drama or whether he is serious. He pats her shoulder lightly giving her support. Divya gushes over how romantic Raman is and he will never hurt Ishita that breaks the camels back and she snatches the book and looks at it is empty now she is sure that he was doing drama and is hurt way too much.
Precap: Ishita spills the truth that they are separate now and Raman was only doing drama
Things which stood out for me in the episodes are
1. No one understood Ishita hurt not even Romi he realizes it but not to full magnitude
2. Raman is thinking that she is only angry but doesn't realize the hurt
3. Amma/Toshjii no words being a women they could not understand what their daughter/DIL went through
4. Fathers always comes a hero for their daughters proved by appa/Bhallaji
5. Raman confession seems genuine but I was not convinced this was not part of his plan because he said to Romi that by end of his drama she would be back home so probably these dialogues were written before to convince her
6. Ishra were talking to each other even though both ACP/Divya were sitting there IshRa were obvious to that couple
7. I never liked Raman shouting at her in front of others same way I did not like Ishita saying everything in front of others
8.Sometimes when you are off the rocker and you are still trying to deal with your emotions which are raw and trying to understand what you are feeling and then you realize that every thing was fake and on top of it the other person says this person will not hurt you but that same person is the main reason you are hurt you will fly off the handle.
9. Dinner date was to early to pull of perfect couple act when emotions are running raw
10. It will take sometime for Raman to realize but I am waiting for the episode when he will realize and what will happen after that.
IshRa relationship status -
Ishita is hurt and given up on the relationship
Raman is thinking she is angry and doing drama to make him apologize
Loved everyone acting today especially KP.DT,Aly and Neelu👏
