Don't know it's very confusing

There is no haldi in diwali celebrations

It looked like Vandana was putting mehndi too in one bts few days ago

Oh ya the one where Mohit was sprinkling something on her face no? - I can't imagine them getting married anytime soon!! ..Maybe some sort of welcoming Tara home kinda celebration :)

I love a good slow burn romance or an enemies to lovers story so if the writers are intending for the connection to build slowly then that’s understandable, but it doesn’t feel as if the connection is building at all. As someone said before on the thread… something is missing.

I wish that Vandu could act how she wanted to with Kunal but every since he became her boss she became fearful of him. I wish she could be his assistant without losing her feisty spirit/attitude. I wish she would at least say things underneath her breath when she’s displeased with him or cutely mock him with Tara when he’s being a big meanie. Before he was her boss, it was cute how V&K irritated each other and did not get along. But now I feel as if she’s too respectful at times and only fears him. It’s always Kunal Sir. She doesn’t seem comfortable with him although they share a similar pain. When they were at odds they were more comfortable… she barged in his house with a broom and didn’t hold her tongue. Now with him being her boss she can’t even step into his office without her jumping in fear in reaction to his yelling.

I’m truly rooting for the show. So I’m hoping this missing element does not affect the TRP. I love Sayli and I would love to see her in a long running show. The show has great actors. And I’m committed to watching every episode. I’m hoping it gets better.

BTW… it’s funny that we rarely refer to V&K as KuVan. It’s almost as if they haven’t reached that level to receive that name yet.

Very rightly said. My thoughts exactly! Like what even does Vaibhav find romantic between V&K. As audience we see a purely boss/assistant relationship - Perhaps they want to take it slowly but even so they can still give us a deeper connection - and yes i hated that Kunal had flashbacks of sonia and indro while choking Vaibhav - I guess at this point they really have no feelings for each other and each is going through a lot in their respective lives - it's realistic but not the dreamy stuff you hope to see on television :)

Would have wanted to see Kunal suggesting that they celebrate their success and take V and Bobby for coffee - Bobby takes off for some commitment and v&k are left to each other - some cute moments on the type of coffee each one likes - the coffee guy referring to K as v's husband while taking the order and the rest of the day could have been spent talking in a friendly way about each other and perhaps some sort of friendly hug - The V choking with flashbacks of sonia didn't work for me either! ..though that split second of eye contact during K catching V scene was good!

It might be too early in the storyline for them to fall in love, but some sort of physical attraction from K's side and some forced situations of proximity and sexual tension would really help increase TRP!

Yes, i definitely agree! She used to be much more feisty and confident in her behavior with him - even the electric bike scene was good. But yeah this relationship with his being boss doesn't let her go back to being that self - she seems to be worried that he'll throw her out and it seems like she's always having to walk on eggshells ..I hope the break the ice soon enough and the dynamics between them change. I love the lead pair too and I can easily see them capable of putting out a very beautiful love story but it all depends on the writing and execution.

And yes KuVan still doesn't feel like a thing :) there's more of KuVan feels in their instagram stories and such than in the show :) But I will wait hoping the story moves forward and picks up pace.

If i were the writer, I'd force certain situations. Like late night work, getting coffee together, work trips and what not - just to give the audience a feel of their chemistry and to keep the sexual tension going. Also I wish Vandu would stop wearing saris on a daily basis :)

It's also just 17min a day ..so they really need to pack some good scenes else people will run out of patience resulting in lower TRP and then who knows how long it will last! It's a good premise so I'd like to see it do well!

I think it’s for Diwali. Looks like Mohit also did this tradition for Diwali with his actual family a few days ago. A reel is on his IG page.

After today’s episode, I am unsure how Vandu is still standing and not outside her house every night smoking 3 packs of cigarettes and getting intoxicated. Her family is such a nuisance. I am surprise she is not in a hospital by this point for her health after all she has endured. How is she maintaining? Is she taking care of her health and eating properly? She’s making all these preparations for Diwali, while working for Mr. Meanie Pants, enduring torture from her family, trying to support Tara, and receiving threats from Vaibhav. When is she resting? She took care of Mr. Meanie Pants the night he was drunk and he has family concerned about him, but who is taking care of Vandu? He drove her home after the incident with Vaibhav but he’s not actually caring for her as she has done for him.

She went through a lot in today’s episode and according to BTS in tomorrow’s episode she will endure more fussing from Mr. Meanie Pants. I’m afraid she will collapse soon. Who can endure so much pain?

I think they are probably heading toward her emotional breakdown? and hopefully then K will be her pillar of support?

Her family has driven her up the wall. Tomorrow K is going to yell and then ask her to not meet Tara anymore or something like that (based on BTS) - hopefully that will be the last straw as the only thing helping her retain her sanity is perhaps her interaction with Tara - hope that breaks her and K realizes how very inconsiderate and uncaring he's being and starts making amends.

There is also BTS of them putting up some lights or such - so not sure if the mundaneness is going to continue with them just interacting in a non-romantic way ..or if it's going to get spicier anytime soon!

Yes! Let’s hope for some spice! 🔥

Something good needs to happen for Vandu. I empathize with her so much. If Kunal has the opportunity to smile and be happy after receiving the contract, then the writers should reciprocate the love and give Vandu a happy moment. And I’m not referring to a fairytale magical dream either😒. Vandu needs some adult happiness. 😂🔥🥰 Some spice!

Yes, for sure! Not accidental catch and falls/back hugs either. Need a proper conversation and a lot of sparks to fly between kunal and vandana. I hope we have some good real moments between them with just the two of them. Right now there isn't any sexual tension :)
