My post got deleted accidentally so I didn't manage to re-type out everything I wanted to say about this episode. But great episode. Loved it.
Ahh..the games these two play!
Somewhere, both of them know that they affect each other even though they are no longer on talking terms, like before. But they won't admit it because like Pushkar said, they like challenges & the feeling of self-importance that comes with the chase. Clear role-reversal between teenage & adult ShraMan today.
Suman's insistence to skip the party clearly annoyed Shravan so much that he lost a point in the match against Pushkar. But this guy knows how to rise from the pitfalls like he did years ago & there, he won the match against Pushkar & Suman by a clean sweep. He didn't need to placate her at all, because he wants her at the party, but on his own terms, without bending down the way he did years ago. 10 years ago, he chased her & 10 years later, she will chase him.
Shravan's confidence irked Suman & so she decided not to go to the party. But the next minute, this same girl is buying matching earrings to go with the dress because she is oh so confident that he will come to placate her. But oh, how the tables turned & there, Suman stood empty-handed as Shravan walked away with the gift. Suman cannot win this game, because she has not changed, but Shravan has. And that is his biggest advantage. Nonetheless, I appreciate Suman's delusion that she can win this challenge.
Also, I just love the parallels drawn between ShraMan's relationship with their family. These two can give each other all the attitude in the world, but are clearly softies & easily manipulated by their family.
Cheers,
Samridhi
