Just finished watching aaj ka SAKK epi......another good one with nuanced scenes.
In particular, I can't stop making a note of the fact that a FL on ITV is firmly repeating in almost every epi ki "Shaadi meri manzil nahin hai".....lol when literally EVERY GODDAMN show on ITV runs on the premise of beta shaadi kar lo, zindagi mein aur koi goal nahin hai.....aur ab baith ke pati ke around life revolve karo.
Today Shaurya-Anokhi got some interactions....first was the traffic stop scene where she overheard him saying to Shagun on the phone that he wanted a wife who'd give him more importance over her career and dreams and Anokhi says, "Rubbish"....lol.....Shaurya doesn't see her face there but he gets pissed hearing someone diss him. Served him right :P
Iske baad wala scene is the best one in the epi.....a conversation between Anokhi and Aastha ma'am where they talk about patriarchy again.....and how men and women equally contribute to it by this point.....very well written scene touching on a whole host of issues related to patriarchy in terms of why it stems from the need to control women....and over time women seem to have gotten used to being controlled by men.....the little bit when Anokhi asks, "Kya auratein is vicious cycle ko todna chahti nahin, ya tod paati nahin"? and Aastha goes...."shaayad dono".....very thoughtful convo.
Second SA interaction was in the college when she bumps into him while running in the corridor.....lol her lipstick leaves a smudge on his sleeve....isse pehle wala scene was cute when her friends were trying to get her to put on lipstick.....I like that Anokhi is a tomboy in many ways.....sports shoes pehenti hai with her suitsš.....hatke hai.
They are using that "Anokhi teri Jugni" wala song for her scenes with Shaurya too....lol thankfully koi romantic theme nahin hai so far.
End mein they also showed Aastha seeing Shaurya in the college and recognizing him....trying to sneak glances at him while staying out of his sight in the auditorium....emotional ho gayi.
Right now Aastha is the most intriguing character and makes you want to know her backstory.....tomorrow's precap has her running into Shaurya but I can't tell if Shaurya recognizes her or not.....he might have insulted her cuz Anokhi is blasting him for being rude to her Aastha ma'amš.
