I'm posting my thoughts on today's episode here. My view may not always be pleasant and I don't want to spoil anyone's mood. But at the same time I value my freedom very much. So I decided to post a warning sign, for people who stumble upon this post, so that they know what to expect.
Lazy saturday. I'm a little laid back😃
I'll post one of these symbols on top of my view on the episode everyday. So that people with delicate constitutions can avoid strong ones and read only pleasant ones
Danger Caution Pleasant

Lazy saturday. I'm a little laid back😃
Doctor arrives and tells Aastha that if Shlok's condition worsens after after a few hours, he will have to be hospitalized and put under observation. Aastha and Anjali are worried about that prospect. Niranjan says that his bacha is brave and his bahu is dutiful, so there is no need to worry. He is happy to see tears in Aastha's eyes for Shlok. That proves his hypothesis that people come closer in tough times. One thing that made me restless is that he didn't seem worried like Aastha and Anjali, about possible worsening of Shlok's condition. Trying to be strong for the family is fine but there is not an ounce of fear. I'm not saying he doesn't love Shlok. Its just that he is so sure about it. He will blame Anjali if anything goes wrong and take it out on her. Why would he worry? Aastha starts tending to Shlok right away and Anjali wants to do the same but she looks at Aastha and Shlok, then turns away and walks off following Niranjan. Why doesn't she show love for her son when she wants to? What is stopping her?
Aastha thinks about Shlok's behavior in the past few days while tending to him. She promises to help him through. Of couse Shlok is unaware of her promises and I am sure, he would not appreciate her help or anybody's help for that matter. Anjali brings in japmala and tells Aastha to say Lord's name while looking after Shlok so that he would get better sooner. May be she wanted to help in some way and this is the only way she can. I think she stays aloof from Shlok on purpose. After initial resistance Aastha decides to do the jap for Shlok's sake.
Sojal, at her mom's bidding, goes to Aastha-Shlok's room to poison Aastha's mind against Shlok. She sees Aastha taking care of Shlok and cannot find it in her heart to disturb her in any way. At Kirloskar house Avdhoot and Ajju decide to call Aastha over for a few days so that Kalindi will not be so restless about Aastha's well-being.
Shlok stirs in his sleep, holds Aastha's hand to his heart and slowly regains consciousness. He sees Aastha beside him and shakes her hand away from him as if she is the one holding his hand. He throws a mini-tantrum for taking the medicine but Aastha force feeds him anyway.
Downstairs, Niranjan pacing about the living room and is ready to blame Anjali if anything goes wrong with Shlok. I have a doubt that Niranjan is behind Varad's valentine's day plan and he probably knows that Shlok would get drunk and Aastha will end up taking care of him. He might have told Anjali to not help him if Shlok comes home drunk. Now he tells Anjali that she should be confident about their son's recovery like him. Before he decides to walk off and order Anjali to follow him and lock the doors behind her, Aastha rushes down the stairs and informs the very worried family that Shlok's fever has gone down and he regained consciousness. Niranjan is relieved to know this and he thanks Bappa. So he was worried about Shlok's health all this while. But the question is, did he risk Shlok's health for whatever reason?
Aastha goes to the kitchen to get some glucose and fruits for Shlok at Anjali's bidding. Anjali follows her to the kitchen and tells her that its not right for Agnihotri bahu to sleep in the kitchen and Niranjan would not like it if he comes to know about it. Aastha doesn't answer that but asks a question instead about Swathi. Anjali denies knowing any Swathi. She tells her to ask Shlok about Swathi because he is the one who said anything about Swathi, not her. So Aastha decides to move to Shlok's room to find answers to her questions.
Shlok finds Aastha moving into his room and tells her that he didn't miss her at all when she was staying in the guestroom and kitchen. Thats why he used to pay her early morning and late night visits to guest room and kitchen. He further says that he has a way of life and doesn't like anyone to make changes. Aastha goes about his err.. their room and starts putting it in order. The grizzly bear gets territorial and picks a fight with her. He tells her that its his room and she has to live according to his wishes if she wants to stay in his room. She retorts back saying its her room too and she can make the room according to her wishes. I am just glad they both didn't pee and mark their territories.
Precap: Aastha praying to Bappa to help her solve this puzzle called Shlok.
