Finally watched the episode and am about to fall asleep after such a long day so here are my super quick thoughts!!
The phone call between Abhira was too cute!! They are so happy and its so nice to finally see them joking around with each other again!
The Aarohi-Akshu scenes were really cute today. Aarohi is trying hard to be happy for Akshu, because she does love her at the end of the day, but her jealously will most definitely end up getting the best of her once again at some point during the shaadi track. For now, I’m enjoying this bonding. When Akshu said that she will be Abhi’s sali, her look was priceless.
I loved Shefali today and finally she is being utilized well!! I want to see more of her dynamic with Abhi, because it is too pure.
Harsh saying thu thu thu and the ashirwaad scene were really nice. Both of them were shocked in that moment… it was such a moment of tenderness and sincerity. This track will cause both of them to melt towards each other! At the end of the day, Harsh wants Abhi to be happy. That is the bottom line for him, no matter how huge his ego is…
All of the Goenka men getting Akshu ready was the highlight of the episode. This girl deserves all of the love and pampering in the world, and she is finally getting it!! The background music made the scene even more special.
The ending was sooo amazing for so many reasons. Manish looked like he was about to murder the Birlas when he realized that Abhi wasn’t there and I burst out laughing. Bechara. But oooff Abhi’s entry and Akshu hiding behind Aarohi was fantastic!! I love how they keep reverting to the song that Akshu and Abhi first sang to each other outside the Goenka villa putting the malas on each other…the makers know how to show parallels so beautifully!!
Another cute episode today. Loving the bond that Birla siblings share. Shefali nazar utaro of Abhi brought a smile. Thank God they kept Manjari out of it. I get nervous whenever she is actively involved in any activity. Please yeh shaadi hone tak send her to the Kuldevi mandir or something. Or like Abhi hired a wedding planner last time, he can hire a couple of more - so she won’t have to do anything except put her feet up. 😆
Harsh was the typical dad with anger / ego issues today. Wish he knew that his son touched his feet - something he’d never done in God knows how long - because of what “uss ladki Akshara” said to Abhi. Abhi toned himself down - both his temper and volume because he wanted his Akshu to be welcomed by everyone in the household and that included his “sir”.
Par iss Manjari ma ka kya kehna! Can’t wait for the day when Harsh starts batting for Akshu as our kaand maata creates some kaand with her tear-filled eyes and helpless face. I’d sit with popcorn to watch that match.
Akshara getting pampered by the men in her family is a wonderful scene. I laughed when Kairav got her pink lipstick and was confused when she said, meine pink kaha tha bhaiya. Such a guy reaction he had. Yeh pink hi toh hain!🤣
Arohi - felt bad for her today. Whatever the issues, a girl should never have to go thru something like this. But then again, this attitude of the family and everyone else is what will trigger her gray side, making it darker. In the precap, she is ofcourse going to be the saali and ask jija for nek / shagun / … I have a feeling she is going to do something similar right before the wedding too. Everyone would assume she is being the saali and she’d do the explosion. We already know that makers have a way of recreating scenes but with different results.
I’m loving Manish and the way he is pampering and teasing Akshara right along with Kairav.
So finally the Princess is ready and the Prince has made his grand entry for the Tilak 3.0 with the same Tenu leke mein jaavanga…
P.S: One request - yesterday someone posted a twitter post that had Harshali at ITA, with papa Birla’s pallu dialogues running in parallel. Can someone please repost it or PM me the link? TIA.
