Events of the episode
- Sultan lits up the musical lighter. Music starts and Sultan has Voice flashback of a woman who is talking about their child and what he has to be named. The woman wants him to named Aryan where as Sultan wants to have a hybrid name Jahaan which is the mix of his and her name. The woman asserts name should be Aryan and that the son should be a xerox copy of his father. Sultan thinks of himself as the most dangerous man, but woman, says on the contrary, he is a very soft person.
- Sultan walks out dragging himself out...not sure why, his left shoulder is hurt, but he is dragging his whole left-side of the body as if he is paralytic. Aryan follows him out and provides a stick to his father as a walking support. Sultan throws it away and tells Aryan that he is strong. As Aryan starts walking away, Sultan catches hold of him and hugs him. Sweet scene.
- Madhu tries to feed Aryan, but Sultan does not trust her, explains that enemies could have contaminated the food items. Sultan tells he that he cannot trust even his shadow. Sultan comes to drink water in the kitchen, Madhu helps him, offers him food. She asks him to freely express feelings by coming out of his selfishness as expressing feelings is being human. Sultan gets angry and defends himself that he is not selfish and that there is a reason why he is so tough on his son. That he does not want his son to get attached with anyone because it hurts when someone you have trusted betrays that trust. Madhu explains that she understands that pain and knows how one cannot let someone so close that their betrayal costs us our life and happiness. Then Madhu recovers and asks Sultan, that this cannot be understood by Aryan who is just a child and that he needs affection to be expressed. Madhu asks Sultan about his wife. Sultan does not answer and leaves the place.
Episode Review
Nothing so great to discuss the episode and write reviews on the same, but episode was good to watch. It was Sultan's episode today...a little bit of him exposed on where he comes from (emotionally).

And I read in the written update that ...RK idiot has still not got over his Madhu and still wants to know her whereabouts and sends his Hanuman to check with Padmini. How lame !!!
Stalker not having an iota of sense within him. God !!! Now I will have to see his non-sense now that VD is back. Those three days without fights between the two, no glares and stares was heaven to me. Loha Loha ko kaataa hai...craziness cuts craziness. Just that it needs to be fun and entertainment. Hope, he brings home entertainment to the show that went missing since 6th March.

The green screen superimposed Amreeka background on RK was SO fake
...Hope to see some ACTUAL storyline movement when he gets back...until then they are just showing filler scenes of his like this.
Avinesh did act well today...they showed some layers to Sultan's bg, probably that's why...and they are setting up a solid base for showing Sultan and Madhu as kindered spirits...both shattered by terrible betrayals from the ppl they loved...they just chose to deal with those betrayals in different ways...Sultan with his paranoia and military style training of his little child to not trust anyone ever again...while Madhu still hasn't lost her ability to trust...she gets up and keeps going...it was a nice scene showing Madhu's pain once again.
But RK was betrayed too...not once, but many times...his father killing himself like that was a betrayal for a little boy, then his mother...then Dips...and I guess those betrayals damaged him way too much and he changed in this manner...I think that is the theme that struck me today...the varying effects of betrayal on different characters.
Btw speaking of...are they NEVER going to show the mystery of why RK's father committed suicide? The chances seem even more dim now that Sultan has been added in as a permanent parallel track...
I guess the story will move in parallel now with Madhu and Sultan understanding each other's pain of betrayal and having to deal with the ghosts of their past vis a Sultan's wife and RK?

I enjoyed today's episode (mind you, I use the term "enjoyed" very very loosely peeps – without RK there's really no joy for me…. jag soona soona..)
Things that stood out for me (and I'm excluding some of Madhu's somewhat predictable dialogues, pan-brandishing, etc):
- Kaka reminding Madhu that Sultan is Aryan's father
- Aryan offering the stick (support) to Sultan, and Sultan declining it. The tujhse naraaz nahin zindagi song…Awww…Sultan telling Aryan that he is his biggest support. Sweet Father-son bonding.
- Sultan looking at the lighter and remembering Aryan's mother.
- Sultan talking to Madhu about trust and betrayal by close ones. Reminding Madhu of her own cataclysmic betrayal by RK. Liked how she talked about how you pick up and live your life after that. Her perspective of dealing with it different from Sultan's (trusting near ones, versus not trusting anyone at all.) Btw - looks like Aryan's mother was the one who betrayed Sultan?
- RK checking in, via his proxy, on Madhu. Hmmm.. he still looks surly (devastating, but still surly.) Not good…Maybe his story is going to progress only when he gets back.
- A confused Bittuji. A confused Radha. Seeds of doubt sowed?
- Precap - that Madhu actually leaves - and conveniently runs into Bhujang's henchmen.

Aren't the thoughts expressed in this post, now crystal clear ? We discussed this on 10th March.
http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3476110&PID=77899303�
That concern for entertainment which was expressed by me in that week when it started, where for the first time on 8th March since I started watching MEIEJ drama, I did not want to watch it...because it was like I was subscribing myself to mayhem. And what did I call it ? Drama of bull-dozing. What did I say ? Self-Destruction is the theme for Madhu and RK for month of March. And haven't we seen it for both of them ? Wasn't I asking...the viewers dilemma is that they ask CVs what drama they get attuned to. They introduced a DON, who is not looking like a Don...but is looking a Reluctant Don, an Accidental Don. So how can the viewer now connect to any kind of drama when the categories and definitions are broken. What kind of entertainment can craziness provide to us. Where is our hope. Who is going to be our saviour ? In the form of Sultan, he is neither the saviour nor the destroyer of drama in MEIEJ. Is he an enabler of drama ? If yes, how can they make him look so uninteresting from three weeks so that viewers lose patience.
Its like Ekta Kapoor saying...TV is free-ticket entertainment. The dramatist need not worry about the viewer getting his share of fun and entertainment as he has not paid money for it. He will say...If you don't like it, leave the show. The dramatist follows monthly themes. All we had to do was to sit back and come back in April, but we suckers, addicted that were, we could not break ourselves. But now effectively the bland drama of past few weeks has been like a visit to drug rehab and now one by one, we are getting out of the addiction we have for the show. Those who can still watch it...that is the loyal audience for MEIEJ and show will go on.
On this ending note...I will say do watch out for 28th, 29th and 30th March episodes, as they will be goal-setting episodes for April Month Dramatic Theme. Those should be your Must-Watch Episodes.
Hope that helps for all those who are looking for a clue and sanity.

SD: Love it.
Seriously wish someone locks him up in a dungeon never to resurface. Imagine what will happen. He will be like RumpelStiltskin of Once Upon a Time. He will need a Regina to cast a curse and a Snow-white's daughter to break the curse and then find his son whom he lost in his greed for Magic. Like RK's drama...is it not ? Losing Madhu to revenge drama and now he will have designs across TimeWarp to weave Curse dramas to get back his Madhu.
Syl : omg shri...I am so impressed...you speak "fairytale" fluently
