Lilly James, I hope you will not mind if I post my views on AY's comment.

I couldn't agree more with you AY, I found Nakul's alter ego scene more pleasing/entertaining/ spot on than Shivika scene. Somehow today and yesterday, something was missing. Again, my humble opinion...it's good to see them together but the growth in the relationship was not shown. I am unable to digest it, yet. May be I will accept it after watching 3-4 times. We can also assume that both of them missed each other so that may be the reason for acting in such a manner. But we were not even shown one scene of Shivaay missing his wife or worrying about her when he was in the captivity. In the scene, Nakul still looks exhausted and somewhat depressed...

But that alter ego scene, oh God it was brilliant performance by NM










AreYaar]Ok, since I have complained a lot about this Mahi character😆, I should give credit when due...

NM was fantastic in the last scene, ESPECIALLY as Mahi...I was really surprised by how well he pulled it off...especially the very last emotional bit...this expression...woh smiling wryly through the tears wala...



They've been so haphazard with executing this character over the last two weeks, a lot has jarred...but today was a good culmination in the form of the facing off...Shivaay watching with a poker face as this guy rambles on ranting about his family...😆...special mention also to the fantastic dialogues for Mahi's rants about Rudy and Om...rofl


My only complaint, which was part of the reason I haven't liked this track...Shivika's equation feels random now...speeded up to make it look like they've been married and romancing since 10 years :S


Ah well, credit due to NM today :)

Well I loved Shivika Holi scene a bit more though I don't get how these two are so comfortable and being cosy without any awkwardness!
Coming to the face off scene...I found Nakul's acting as Shivvay is totally off while as Mahi hez good! His expressions as Shivaay are bland! I guess hez more into Mahi's character IMO! Hope CVs take care of such things!

Besides, Surbhi looked beautiful n loved her expressions in the first scene with Shivay!

I second your thoughts..Nakuul Mehta just totally proved his mettle as an actor today..the Shivaay with Anika was beautiful..
but Mahi was totally on point..no one can do a better drunk act than Nakuul.. he is a brilliant actor.. he owned the show today..!! Didn't just talk the talk..he walked the walk too..

PS--I watched the Shivika scene so many times..atleast 5 before seeing the rest of the episode..they were Awww 😳 ❤️



Hi Ridz13sdqt! I totally get the ShivIka obsession you mention... the whole ShivIka fandom in my opinion has been starved the last 2 weeks so we are all rightfully rejoicing the happy moments now ⭐️

And the scene honestly grows on you, especially the Happy Holi (colours all around) shot... reminded of the declaration and flower scene no?

absolutely agree with u ..
Thought there was a beautiful Shivika moment and i was waiting to watch it..It was an agonizing wait...

But the face off was a very very beautifully enacted part..Nm was brilliant...I was pleasantly amazed to see this kind of a face off...

hats of ...Nm...and Team IB for this kind of an episode today..awaiting the power rangers back together to counter this new attack on their loved one...

So I've been away from this forum for quite a while now because 1. busy with life 2. trying to enjoy the show as is minus all the over analyzing and CV bashing (that I used to indulge in a little too much) 😆


But today had to be back and find a post like this to comment on. Loved the Shivika moment. Full feels. Surbhi looked soo pretty!! ❤️


And even though, I wasn't convinced about Mahi, the character won me over today. He was legit hilarious and the manner in which he explained what he thought about the Obros was perfect! 👏


I always saw a little bit of Shivaay in Mahi so I could never really separate the two. Even though I didn't mind the idea that much (I thought they'd somehow link it to SSO's NKK obsession), I wasn't convinced by NM's portrayal of Mahi.


But today's episode changed my mind! Today's Mahi was all Mahi and I think I'm finally able to get on board with this character! From his conversation with Rudra about Soumya to his alter-ego monologue, I only saw a tapori ranting and rambling with not even a bit of SSO in there! Amazing work by NM 👏


Okay that's it. *goes back into hibernation mode* 😆


I think I should take a leaf out of your hibernation mode for the weekend and concentrate on real life as well, especially now that suddenly all seems so well in IBland 😆


I am neither an actor nor do I have any personal experience with acting, but I guess it takes time for an actor to get comfortable with a character as well - and in my opinion this is easily spotted in our desi TV shows wherein there is no clear out pre production, production and post production schedule (proved today ironically 😛)... so while Ishqbaaz has been rumoured to have been in works for a year before actually airing... i am sure the actors took the first few weeks (June or July no?) to settle into their characters.. this applies to Mahi too for NM (me thinks).

And like you I too feel that NM owned Mahi in true sense today. I can't find a single moment from Mahi's monologue today where I am unconvinced. (Of course I am still not sure where the track seems to be heading? And I hate that this track is eating over ShivIka..) But no longer can I say that I am just a Billu fan girl, no man, I am a legit turned NM fan girl tonight 😆


Oh and yes, Surbhi looked so pretty today. ❤️

Oh NM did really well as Mahi today but as SSO, i felt a bit disappointed 😆...

They have finally turned Shivika as another random couple ...There was so much of conflict bw Shivay and Anika and its all evaporated in aang laga de ...Of all the songs, they found this, I mean this song for Shivika 🤣 As a shivika fan, i should be happy but aise feel nahi aa rahe 😆. Ok enough of Shivika !


It's Mahi day 😃 and yes, I did not like how Mahi was treated in the precap. SSO 😡😆

honestly i didn't find the shivika scene that much sweet the first time i saw it
but damn!!after watching it for 6 times i started smiling like an idiot...they're the sweetest

about the alter ego scene
when shivaye was doing hand gestures it was just🤣 and i loved how mahi was complaining about Obros yet he sounded jealous😭😭
i think he might complain about annika in Monday😆😆

but as some 1 mentioned SSO looks tired (i thought perhaps it was NM due to working on 2 characters but mahi looks so energetic and normal ) so maybe it's to show that SSO was tired from kidnapping

i found SSO reactions to mahi so weird ... but after watching couple of times i kind of get it... he was scared to do or react in a way that would alert mahi & he was shocked to watch his carbon copy up & close ...

when mahi was talking about how lucky SSO was ... SSO's eyes were all { i know i am lucky }😳& i swear when mahi was being emotional i felt that SSO felt bad for him😭

so according to me & after re watching this epi a 100 times ... NM rocks in both characters 👏👏

p.s : although i can understand that IB showing for 5 days only is necessarily for the show but my heart can't take it ... i am too depressed right now😭😭😭
