Yudh - Episode 15 review. Beware of minor spoilers.

Conspiracies, spies and questionable, if not illegal, medical practices, episode fifteen of Yudh had them all.

It started off with Taruni seeking reassurance from her boyfriend about conducting a surgery that she has neither the training nor the qualification to do. As usual, since she is a supporting character of the TV show and she has a proven hero complex, she goes on to conduct the surgery. Although the issue was treated with some trepidation on the part of Taruni, it was still a little hard to digest. If I was in Yudh's place, I would have tried harder to look for an alternative surgeon. Or, at least, transported one from the nearest full-fledged hospital.

Aside from the fact that Taruni's surgical mask was hanging from her left ear and oops-wasn't-in-one-of-the-middle-shots, thankfully, slowly but surely, Yudh has come back to the fore-front. There was one really heart-felt scene where we see Yudh, in a moment of utter honesty, admits that it has all become a-bit-much for him and regretting some of his choices.

The episode ended with an army attack on the Naxalite group base, for which Rishi may or may not have been a cause. Rishi is upset that his informant/friend/mole from the Naxalite group has passed. This scene, in particular held a lot of dramatic promise that could not yield from the actor.

All in all, this episode was as average as it has been in the last few episodes, but not as cringeworthy as some of them. I'm looking forward to the Mona story-arc's solution since I have become quite intrigued by the character of Kapil. Apart from that, Yudh and Anand's final stand and position are somethings I'm curious about. The rest of the story, including the mining and the Maliks have, unfortunately, dimmed my interest in them.

Also, if you've watched the show or are in the process of doing so, please let me know in the comments of what you think of the show! Do you think Kapil will go scott-free? Do you think Anand can come to Yudh's rescue in his final moments? Write down your thoughts and we can discuss these on my next post.
