Today's episode was just amazing. Yesterday I said that it was my favourite episode till now but after seeing today's one I am seriously confused between which one I like more.
As usual Rhea outshined herself yet again. She didn't need words or every tears or any facial expressions to convey Mishti's pain. It was visible in her eyes.
Abir- Bade papa scene showed that how much he cares for not only Mishti but also Abir. Abir's eyes on hearing Bade papa's wish to take Mishti away was just painful. But I liked how Bade papa stated the reason for taking Mishti. He didn't want Abir to have to choose between Mishti and Ketu.
Kunal speaking up to Meenu was definitely one of the highlights of this episode. I didn't think he was too rude in his words. He spoke from a very neutral point of view.
But the "saage bete" jab hurt. He could have said "bade bete". Meenu never treated him like an evil step mom. She used that, Yes but she never treated him less than her own son. Anyways it's good to see Kunal standing up to Meenu.
Meenu-Mishti scene was the star of today. The family supporting her without a single taunt no matter what their previous dynamic was is nice. Parul Maasi speaking about Meenu's help was also sweet. She might have done many questionable things but she is not devil incarnate. It is not easy to accept the other woman and her child.
I liked how Abir lightened the mood to make everyone smile.

And today Abir turned on the light by bringing a smile on everyone's face if one just of a few moments.
Special mention to Koshlu Mama. He was just so sweet.
MishKu scene was so precious. I loved Kuhu's way of speaking. Though I didn't like how Kuhu's redemption happened within a span of three minutes but I'll just let it go. The references from Cinderella, Godzilla showed her character. I felt she was hundred percent geniune today. I wish writers were not so inconsistent with her character.
'19 ka table' and "Dhamki ke naam pe thappa" were the moments which gave the otherwise serious and melancholic episode a funny moment.
I am really worried about Ketu though. She will have to suffer yet again for no fault of hers.
Also Kunal was a jerk in the scene with Mishku. It was inconsistent with the previous episodes and even today's. Rejecting the water from Parul Maasi can be justified as he was stressed but with Kuhu it was just too much.
Meenu revealing about Lakshman is a bit shocking and out of character.
Last but not the least I liked Kuhu's last scene where she said that Mishti is very strong mentally but not physically. It was not meant to demean her and it seemed like something a close friend or sister would say.
P.S. I liked Meenu-Mishti-Family scene but "Meri Mishti" was just too much. It seemed out of place and character and was not even needed. I will have a hard time believing it. That's all.
Edit: I forgot to add, Rupal ma'am was just so brilliant.
I want to give an aplause to the whole cast of yrhpk along with the writers and scriptwriters who wrote today's dialogues. Everything was so amazing today.
