As the doctor
continues to call out Anjali's name, Arnav tries to search for his sister. Anjali is seen heading into one of the clinic
rooms. As she walks in, she remembers
Arnav's slap, her telling Shyam he was going to be a dad and Khushi reminding
her about her baby. She picks up a pair
of scissors and stares at them. Arnav
meets up with the doctor and they both search for Anjali. Back at the house, Mami is scolding Khushi
and Payal for being responsible for ruining the peace in the house. Nani and Mami both pray and hope nothing bad
happens to Anjali. Arnav finds Anjali in the room holding the scissors and
thinks she may do something to herself.
He barges in an removes the scissors from her causing her to go into
panic mode. She claims she doesn't want
a child who will remind her of the times she spent with her husband. She also states that since no one has respect
for the father, the baby will be all alone like her. Arnav tries to calm her
down but she goes into a panic fit and ends up passing out. He brings her home and everyone is relived
she is ok. When Arnav takes Anjali to
her room, she ends up in a different emotional state and asks him why the
happiness has left the house. She asks
him to make everything like the way it was before and bring Shyam back to the
house. Later that night, Mami tells
Arnav what happened that afternoon. She
informs him that Khushi had gone into Anjali's room to speak with her. An angry Arnav searches for Khushi as he
remembers how Anjali was trying to hurt herself. He drags Khushi back to their
room where he yells at her for going into Anjali's room. Without giving her a chance to explain herself
Arnav blames her for Anjali's current condition. He states that had she not enter their lives,
Shyam would not have done anything like this and his sister would have been
happy. Before leaving, he says that she
is the biggest mistake of his life, leaving a heartbroken Khushi hurt by his
words. As Arnav takes a drive, he
recalls what happened that day, even recalling a childhood flashback. He also recalls memories of him and Khushi during
the time he was kidnapped. At that
point, Arnav regrets what he said to Khushi and decides to return home.
What worked:
Anjali's impulsive decisions. Anjali's
decision to abort her child shows what kind of a mental state she is. She doesn't really know what to do as she
herself has not fully come to terms with what has happened. She is only reacting to situations, causing
the people around her to worry. These
impulsive decisions of hers show that she is still suffering from the shock and
at the same time, show that part of her refuses to believe any of it.
What didn't work:
Everyone's constant cries and worries for Anjali. I understand that they are worried for her and
her condition at this time but come on. How
do they expect Anjali to come out of this if all they do is worry and cry
around her. It's time for the family
members to understand what happened and be strong for Anjali. They really need to help her get out of this
shock as she is not capable to do so on her own. By allowing her to mellow in her own grief,
they are only making her situation worse.
Highlight:
Arnav blaming Khushi for Anjali's condition.
This is going to be the mother of "I'm sorry". Arnav has just dug himself a big hole and
practically buried himself in it. Yes,
he is upset and angry with the situation and feels helpless but that does not
give him any excuse to go blame the one person who practically saved the family
and his own life. I'm not surprised at
his behaviour but I am shocked that he still has not learned from his past
mistakes. This scene sets the stage for
Arnav's ultimate redemption. He's going
to have to prove himself big time in order for her to forgive him. Advice to Khushi: Make the boy beg. This just may be his biggest lesson to date.
