The episode covered a lot of ground and it laid a wonderful foundation for the story; Firstly i loved how they showed the soldier hesitating to shoot on armless humans. Such a real raw human emotion to avoid violence but then having to obey and shoot.Secondly Iman's daughter holding her chachu's hand was the most beautiful moment of the episode, Iman may be her biologcical father but she has only seen her chachu as the person fulfling the role of a father, DNA doesnt change anything. Although the return for the Sikh family is still joyous, but somewhere the Khan family couldnt decide what they were feeling .. They are happy yet they are sad, i am sorry i am bad with names but Iman's wife's hug was a beautifully enacted moment,Then moving on to vikram saying that 17 years can even change a soldeir's heart. Loved loved it!they are moving on from glorification of soldiers where in past we have heard that everything can change but not a soldier's loyalty, they are humans and yes 17 years is a long long time!So there is a twist, Sikh soldier said khuda haafiz, either he converted to Islam or he picked up khudaa hafiz because afterall he spent 17 years in a jail in a muslim country.Wonderful episode!However,, my only concern is i hope they dont make this an anti - Pakistan show bcz no matter how open minded i became, my patriotism will hinder my viewership. I hope they treat it on neutral basis that it happens on both sides!
