Okay take two of writing this episode analysis, my way
We start with a continuation of the previous episode where Dhara pulls up behind the auto that Anita and then Gautam, sit in. - This continuation is much appreciated since we sometimes get scenes that have been edited out or put out of place i.e later in the episode and the momentum is lost (Atl east for me since I watch the episodes usually back to back).
Dhara is emotionally overwhelmed because of the hormones and feels as though he is lying and defeated almost at not catching him red handed, she goes back home. She does need to introspect a bit because she has loved her husband for ten years, to then doubt his fidelity is a disgrace to her love.
I don't understand how the very grounded and sensible Gautam that we were shown earlier (even the younger Gautam pre-leap) has now become such a confused and unsure character. He is essentially the eldest in the family (bar Suman) and for him to be so unsure of the next step is a disgrace to both himself and his bond with Dhara. They have been married for ten years. She knows his ticks, when he's lying or hiding something and now that he doing it, surely he can see its working her up.
He's stuck in a vicious cycle of hiding - her doubt - her getting worked up - harmful for the baby - stressing him out, over and over. Dude just tell the woman so she takes care of herself (side note I watched 251 and the advice from the doctor to not tell her is the stupidest thing I've ever heard, usually don't they discuss all pros and cons especially if there is anything wrong to let them understand the whole situation? At least mine did).
Coming on to the the one untouched bond(fingers crossed they don't touch it) of Hardik and Gautam. Hardik is stuck between his friend and his sister. He loves his sister so fights with his friend and then when he speaks to Dhara who doubts him as well when he talks to her about Gautam and Anita, there is the briefest glimpse of sympathy for his friend. Also Gautam teasing Hardik was love!
Although in this part, I would have liked to see Gautam share the doctor's concern with Hardik instead of Anita. He's only become friends with Anita because she saved Dhara. That cannot classify them as such close friends that he can share something this personal with her. Gautam's thought of Hardik taking the news on a different tangent was a bit uncalled for; he was the same friend who kept the secret of Gautam and Dhara's decision to not have children from everyone, even keeping the fact that he knew, from his own sister. Wouldn't he then have made a better secret keeper?
The we have the fight between Dev and Rishita. Rishita is playing into the hands of her bua. She wants Dev to not decide when her family sends anything for her, but she is okay to then demand her haq from their house. She is right in that aspect but she needs to realise that Dev also deserves the same equality. Dev could have used so many other examples of returning the washing machine, not that saying it was going to was a hit at his ego was wrong per se, as a husband I'm sure he wishes to provide for his wife and doesn't want to have to take anything from his in laws.
Then the next day calling Rishita the boss when he's been working on the project the longest, justified his anger in my eyes. For someone who is constantly being called out for every decision being made (Yes some were justified, like the lingerie section being separate for men and women, in another episode I caught the clip of) to be told that his plans, which just a by the way have been approved by council, are not the plans being followed is plain stupidity. The council will come and ask you to re-do it according to the permit. At least they moved aside to have the argument.
On a side note here
1) we might make fun of Dev and his MBA degree, but we don't know what exactly he studied before his MBA. If he's done structural engineering for example, he could possibly be good at making building plans, knowing what is right etc which is why he made the plans for the bedroom too (Just a thought)
2) They got Rishita to enter as Shiva did during the pag phera ritual but she fell a bit short (Pun intended). She might have a strong personality but she cannot carry off the attitude wala walk.
Next we come to Krish, a scene not really required, but shows potential of character growth from Krish. He's the same person who is least concerned about what he says and what others think about. now, even if its Kirti, he stops to think.
Lastly, we come to Shiva and Raavi, Shiva is irritated. He's been stuck with teaching her how to ride a bike (a decision he made as he normally does when it comes to her, emotionally). It shows that he doesn't want to, but he still does and he teaches her properly...Where everything is on the bike CBA and Raavi repeating everything that he is showing.. I love the "Oh another brake" and he tells her to concentrate. Then she sits and follows his steps, concentrating on how to start. He sits behind her and moves slightly closer and she gets nervous. She is getting what she wanted without even asking, chipkaoing together. Consider that she doesnt "Love" him she's enjoying it quite abit.
Then we have her riding it and the whole scene was just pure joy to watch. We see Shiva and Raavi living in the present, a teacher and student, friends, partners who are just spending some time together without the burden of their world on them for that little time. Their possessiveness for each other takes a quick peek out in the conversation with mami.
Overall the episode was so well balanced, we got to see a bit of all the brothers their confusions, their problems and how they all deal with it and I thoroughly enjoyed watching it despite the melodrama in certain parts.
