Stellar episode . Everything was on point, the romance, the conversation given their personalities and the impulsive climax to the episode.
It was an interesting conversation because one was emotional, other pragmatic, they seemed to be talking over each other without trying to understand what other one was saying.
Things that stood out to me was Shaurya is willing to make compromises or change because this is about Anokhi and he is in love but his underlying soch has not changed much. He keeps talking of middle ground and lack of ego in love which makes me think his idea of relationship is very much ideal and textbookish. One can get to that state but it takes a lot of communication and hardwork for a couple to achieve that level of understanding. Good news is he is willing to take the risk and put in hard work as needed.
As usual Anokhi had a very pragmatic and practical approach to conversation probably to the point that she undermined the importance of love in life and called it childish. Her goal is reasonable and she has a right to her dreams but she is not even willing to take a chance. She has already made a decision that she will walk away from Shaurya though she herself does not have it in her to walk away. She mentioned something about the difference between changing does not mean compromises and that people don't change their soch. I do not blame her because she is drawing off her experiences from her family but I disagree with her, when you change, you compromise naturally and they do not feel forced. Most of the time you don't even notice the change and so called compromises. Also people change as do their soch ...it is a part of growing up and life. She has a lot of growing up to do.
There was a trigger apart from desperation that led Shaurya to react and do the sindoor thing. It was not Ahir but Shagun, I think he lost it when she told him to go and get married to Shagun. I think instinctively Shaurya stumbled onto the solution of all his problems in his head- marrying Anokhi without a delay. It gets him out of his forced engagement and supposedly binds Anokhi to him. I also think he took a calculated risk with Anokhi- he knew she loved him and she wanted to stay with him but she was willing to walk away rather than take a risk and bet on their relationship. He took that decision out of her hand and forced it on her. He seemed almost perversely pleased about his action.
I am curious to see how Anokhi reacts to sindoor incident. I think she will be mad initially and lead Shaurya to a merry chase but will accept Shaurya after seeing his sincerity eventually.
