One point explained ... the big haveli ... which looks more like a small palace ... is in Dilsher's name. Nice to have these things cleared up.
Does that explain why Mohini kaki took such pains to throw out her older brother-in-law so many years ago? And why she is so furious to see him back? And Dilsher's younger brother, Rudra's kaka, is in no hurry to overthrow his brother. Thus adding to Mohini's frustration. No wonder she has fed poison to her sons since their childhood ... the bad blood between Sumer and Rudra is of long standing duration.
Mohini kaki's older son is stable, the younger one seems to be as volatile as Rudra. Quite an explosive combination, this is going to be.
The sons did have a point ... if Mohini kaki has built up the cottage industry they run, they're entitled to the profits.
So Rudra had not gone to Laila ... he went to get his father. Father and son have a strange way of showing their affection ... but they are all each other has got ... so they stay together. And now that Rudra has gone back to his family home, his father's exile ends as well.
So they return ... just in time to prevent Sumer from breaking open the door guarding Paro's prison ... a frightened Paro inside takes the time to wonder at a multi-sided mirror ... and even smile.
A tearful kaka welcomes his brother home ... and an equally sentimental Dilsher returns the hug.
These Ranawat men seem to be cut from the same cloth ... all are harsh on the surface, and completely sentimental at heart. Wonder whether Mohini's two boys are the same, or are they made of sterner stuff, like their mother?
Family politics in the Ranawat khandaan ... Mohini kaki is supremely bit*** even in her obeisance to her BIL and in his introduction to her family ... never allows Dilsher to forget his humiliation.
Rudra watches narrowly ... can the grown up man figure out what maybe the child Rudra never could ... how Mohini's sweet tongue sugarcoats the barbs she shoots from it?
Rudra takes his father into his locked prison ... and for a moment, panics when he can't see Paro anywhere. Till his father sees her ... perched on top of a cupboard.
She saw a mouse.
A very simple rational explanation.
Dilsher asks a very simple rational question ... 'you didn't even call me for the wedding?'
Rudra is not amused ... neither at Paro's perch, or at the amount of time she takes to climb down. So he 'helps' her ...
And we get the first Rangrasiya Ve ... in front of Daddy??? Cool!!!
MU perpetuated by Rudra ... feeding his new bride with his own hands. What has he told his father?!

Dia,
ReplyDeleteLovely takes as usual :) I don't get to see the episode till all of you are asleep so not participating in the discussions some much but enjoying reading them.
Though I would like to see the budding love story , I think its too ealry ..its fear and survival instinct on Paro's part , Safeguarding a key witness on Rudra's part - he still thinks she is party to the whole racket - the precap mentioned him correcting that opinion tomorrow.
Ashish is doing a phenomenal job portraying the conflicted , confused kid grown up too fast - trying to come to terms with the betrayal of his mother and the hope that he is wrong about the betrayal - the 'tough love' for his father, the masking of his affection for the chacha , and his guarded interactions with Paro - truly a fantastic performance...
Sanaya as expected is wonderful - the fear , the confusion, the disorientation, her appeal to the good side of the man ... I am an Ardhanariswara (shakti-Siva ) devotee so loving the references to that divine romance :)
It cannot be long before Stockholm syndrome sets in and Paro falls for her captor ..I am so looking forward to seeing this unfold
Agree with you Srisri on Ashish!! Never know him before this show. He's fabulous as Rudra. Both the leads are living as Paro and Rudra.
DeleteNice take Dia!! I liked yesterday's episode. Rudra and his father's equation, PaRud scene, mirror scene( sanaya nailed it), also hats off to the dialogue writer...Liked many lines of kaki. But not so impressed with Sumer...find a bit OTT.. Let's see how that character shapes. Now this show has all the required characters to grab trp audience too. Hope it does well , i'm enjoying this now.
