Okay, so, I saw the episode - don't ask me how many times, cause I don't know - and can I just tell you, Mush, that your analysis added more beauty to the episode.
Coming to the episode I loved the lines given to Akshu today - "no means no. Ladki bole to bhi, jab ladka bole tab bhi" - This was amazing.
Boy was totally whipped with this girl from the minute she entered - matlab his whole life was as stake, but boy was making gooey eyes at his woman. Ron's 'she needs to sort her priorities' comes to mind. 😆😆
The fall today - made sense, as she slipped due to a reason and he caught her - but what made me go 'awww' was Abhimanyu scolding Akshara bilkul haq se for being so clumsy!
I won't lie, when I saw the pictures over here and clips on twitter of Abhimanyu grabbing her face and asking her why she was here - I cringed, at first I thought, bhai she has told you clearly she didn't love you - you think she does, but grabbing her face and asking her to accept her feelings for you is very much the ITV trope I so dislike. But when I saw the episode and how well this was executed - I could see why Abhi would do that. It was not at all cringe worthy. And the moment she called him 'koi bhi', he immediately let go of her - putting that place between them - this was the bit I loved so much.
This was such an intense scene, and when a powerful performer like HC does it, then sone pe suhaga.
Frankly, I am quite excited for the phase coming up. Manjiri is mostly going to push Abhi towards Aarohi, and quite frankly, I don't care about the drama. Aarohi ka rishta karva lo Abhi se, idc - HC can do wonders with that intense track coming up and I am all for the angst it will bring.
End game toh AbhiRa hi hai na - as long as the characters are not ruined and kept at a tolerable level for me, I will enjoy the show.
Lovely write up, Mush. Don't know if I made much sense. 😆 And thanks for the lovely caps. May I use them?
