I watched quickly on my phone this morning before an appointment and skipped stuff here and there and read the detailed update, a couple things stood out. Thapki saying that her and Dhruv loved each other a lot - that didn't sit right with me. I never saw any deep and moving love on her side. In fact other than being told by people and online and in the show I've never actually SEEN anything on my screen to indicate that the love was reciprocated on that level. With good story telling you don't need to be told constantly by a hundred people that two people are in love because you can see on your screens that they are.
The other thing, that several people pointed out already throughout the forum (sorry, I was reading while in the waiting room on my phone and wasn't logged in) but Thapki was SOOO quick to figure out that Bihaan had faked his death, she was able to take the tiniest and seemingly inconsequential clues into consideration and get to the end result but she isn't bothered to question Bihaan's motives and actions at all?
I do like that she had this moment to lay all her grievances out in front of him once and for all in private. I did like that she spoke out and let him know she was a person and not someone to be passed around. That's one thing that I found really annoying about this. Everyone was trying to make decisions about what they think would be best for her. I hope now they're able to finally move on from this and the story can progress.
Today will only have been worthwhile in my opinion based on what happens next. Is Thapki still going to be stuck in this cycle of blaming Bihaan for everything and only seeing the worst in him? I mean there comes a point where you have to make the best of the situation that you're given. She can either be miserable and hate her husband for the rest of her time with him or she can strike up some sort of truce and move forward and they can have a more pleasant time of it.
I mean, the guy was willing to fake his death, was willing to leave the family he would do anything for to ensure Dhruv and Thapki could be together because they would make each other happy. He was willing to be in pain so that others could be happy, he basically straight up told her this today - yes he was misguided but he was trying to do something right by her. When is she going to wake up and see that side of him??
Now I think I've just started rambling so I'm going to stop cause I can't even remember what my point was when I started writing this.
the lecture had a lot of points repeated from previous lecture but this time 2 good things were:
- Everything was from Thapki's perspective and how she feels about it. Even the harsh statements like how she considers herself as dead were also about her feelings about the situation. She was not ranting as she usually does
- It was in private. There were no outside influences.
She accepted the marriage (not Bihaan), which was another good thing.
Lastly - I also never thought she loved Dhruv. However, for her this marriage and Bihaan has been such a shock, that in hindsight her is perceiving her feelings for Dhruv as love. May be she equates trust to love. When she falls for Bihaan, she may realize the difference between the two.
Alternative theory - she is suffering from amnesia 😆
