As bad as the precap is for Kuhu, there were some moments in the episode which made my day!
The imaginary back hug with the lovely background music was a treat to watch It was like pyaase ko ek boond paani denaš
With Abir playing the romantic Dheere Dheere se and Kunal drifted in Kuhu's thoughts imagining her come from behind and hugging him tight was so well done. Kunal then comes back to reality but doesn't stop. He questioned himself as to why he still wants the marriage. This is exactly what we want to know! I made a post long back saying why aren't we getting to know how Kunal feels about Kuhu and his marriage and we got it today! He thinks rightly and asks himself whether he started liking Kuhu. Whatever it is he doesn't want the marriage to end
And guess who he goes to help? The aajevan brahmachari Jugnu𤣠who rightly asked why are you asking about love jo khud love kiya ho and love marriage bhi kar chuka ho š¤£
Idiot idiot idiot!! That message would've brought Kuhu back in an instant but all he sent was "I need you". Loved how impatient Kuhu was to get a text from him and the moment she got it she was so happy Felt bad to see her balloon pop when Kunal said he needed her to plan a surprise for Mishti š„ŗ
I didn't like how Kuhu is again blaming Mishti for everything. This was a hint of pre leap Kuhu that wasn't mature. Makers please don't ruin her character! š
The dreaded precap where Naanu says the surprise is for the "best" Rajvansh bahu only triggered Kuhu's not being important feelings and adding to that Ketu asking "her" to take a "family" picture added fuel to the fire. I think it's the way Kaveri acts that you tend to easily like and dislike the character! One moment you don't like her for blaming others for her problems and the next you feel sad for her situation and relate to it. Not getting importance from someone you love hurts even if the other person doesn't do it intentionally. Kunal is one such person from whom she's expecting a small talk about themselves but his priorities are something else. He doesn't do it intentionally but does it at the wrong timings hurting her even more.
I just hope Kuhu doesn't do anything drastic in her feeling of being left out and Kunal catches her from falling just in time š
