This is awesomewa. 😆 Loved how you worded it so perfectly:)) BS was such a disappointment for Imlie. 😆
Waise mera forum thread has become chat adda going in all kinds of tangents😆.....so I think I'll post this point here without distractions.....
I think as usual people are already imagining 10 steps ahead and expecting resolutions/realizations from Adi that don't go with where his character currently is.....
Chalo I'll use our fav. Shivaay-NKK wala parallel only to simplify.....what Shivaay's NKK was to him, Adi's marriage to Malini is to him.....infact, in some ways it's even worse....Shivaay ke case mein we could still see his NKK struggle visibly but Adi ke case mein toh the blinders are on an emotional level, not even a "practical" level as they were for Shivaay with NKK......so given that, it's even trickier to show him consciously moving towards Imlie when he is almost programmed to only coddle Malini as his wife.
Anika was the exception to Shivaay's NKK....he eventually learnt to view her outside those parameters, make a whole other space for her in his life.....Shivaay always made and lived by his own rules so in some ways it was easier for him to defy everything and pursue Anika on his own terms......here Adi is constricted by his own righteous complex and his skewed perception about his relationship with Malini.....toh his situation is 100 times harder cuz his soul might feel a connect with Imlie but he doesn't even know where to BEGIN making space for her in this life that he himself has declared is only attached to Malini.....lol
So basically what I'm saying is ki logon ko aadat daal leni chahiye that Adi is not going to consciously accept two things atleast for quite a while.....a) That he feels anything for Imlie beyond general zimmedaari.....and b) That Imlie is his valid wife
I personally feel that makers can build a good track around proper friendship between Adi-Imlie.....clearly Adi wants to find a way for her to come back but he also can't accept the label of husband from her.....so ideally he should try to find a new label for their rishta in the interim....dosti hi banaa lo - and he can use that as an excuse for taking care of her, helping her etc.....lol.....this daily spinning of wheels where Imlie is like you are my pati but it's ok I'm not thopoing anything on you and Adi's like "I'm not your pati but I still want to do so much to help you"😆.....they need to find a workaround.
With that, I have as usual dialed my expectations to below zero for this week....we got 3 good epis at the end of last week....toh aage ka pattern usually flip maarega in some ways😆......if they manage to show some good scenes of Adi even missing Imlie, main utne mein hi progress maan lungi.....haha
