Manjari:
Seriously this woman has been through so much. We've seen the taunts and disrespect she's received in that household but we are definitely going to be given an even more in depth view of her situation. The scene of when Manjari gets so shocked that Akshu even asked her what her favorite kheer was, was so heartbreaking. Her immediate speechlessness and almost inability to answer said a lot. It's been forever and a day since anyone has asked her what she wanted. The entire household takes her for granted. I'm sure Neil and Abhi have asked before or tried to do something for her but she probably always deflects and says something whatever you want is what I want...typical Mom thing to say. And the boys don't exactly know how to cook. And I'm pretty sure things get overruled anyways by Harshvardhan. Mahima, or even Anand.
I know some have complained in the past regarding Manjari seemingly air headedness but with a husband like Harshvardhan and a family that does not support her you wonder how this woman can even function. She cannot tell whether if her decisions are right or wrong. Even if she makes a good decision someone ends up being upset with her. If she manages to please Harshvardhan, her sister probably has some taunting comeback because she has her own insecurities and triggers. Most of the time she is against Harshvardhan but even when she is on the same team as her bother-in-law her tongue is no less sharp.
Anand though the more agreeable one does nothing to really defend but just distracts people so a fight won't break out. He may say one nice thing but then moves onto something else to get people from thinking about things too long.
Harsh:
He's just 🤬 😡 This man has the audacity to ask what about him? Your wife has been doing nothing been serving you hand and foot and doing everything per your liking and one day when her daughter-in-law makes a sweet dish specifically because its her favorite you decide to act childishly and complain that you didn't get something? 365 days a year everything goes according to your whims. I swear 😡
Akshu:
Poor girl is witnessing the Birla House of Horrors morning routine. She knew that house was different but she probably had no idea how different. I'm sure she is silently jotting down things in her mind regarding how this family is and also feeling very sad that this is the environment that Abhi and Neil were raised in and that Manjari has to deal with every day.
Abhira:
So the dream was Abhi's 😆 Of course only Abhi would have those types of dreams. His romancing skills are so good. Though I was actually hoping Akshu was dreaming it cause her dreams need an upgrade from cheese 😆
Abhi looked so heartbroken when he came into the room knowing she decorated everything and tried to wait up for him but ended up falling asleep. The next morning was super cute and love these parallels ❤️ they are showing.
Off topic but when are they going to show the new song video? We kept thinking it would play during the wedding track but it hasn't yet. It has to be someone's dream 😆 Maybe Abhi has another long night shift again and its Akshu you dreams it?
