SG track starting ... slowly ... slowly ...

1st November

MJHT - Starts with Gunji actually ticking off Nups for not telling her that she and M were all cosy again, because of them she was fighting with Samrat for no reason ... Nups, of course, is unfazed, when does she ever think about anyone but herself?! Tells Gunji she should make up with Samrat ... Gunji starts thinking for the first time (finally!) that she's not done the right thing with him at all ... and should apologise ...

part 1

Sam arrives through the window as usual ... Gunjan smiles and for the first time in S2, gives him her hand to help him, and tells him ... aao. He's rather zapped ;) (I saw a lot of Sanaya in this part, especially her expressions.) Sam jumps in with her help, and of course they wind up real close and share an eyelock. He maroes a line .. don't ever leave my hand now, and the few lines which follow were really sweet, a scene between two people who know each other inside out, who are most comfortable with each other, and don't even need too many words to communicate ... they can be themselves, they can say what's in their heart, yet tease gently as well ... the communication channels are finally opening slowly again ...
But still not back to where they were, that journey will take a longer time ... as the scene with Dodo shows ... when Gunji says that Sam is not her bf, just her friend, and Sam just smiles wryly as she looks at him, a bit uncomfortable as she's saying that ... he's not her bf again, but he's not just a friend either, and all three of them know that ... there's no word to really describe what they are, at the moment.

part 2


Which brings me to an interesting thought ... Gunjan (Sanaya) has a new role to play now ... rather, a completely new shade. In S1, she was shy, quiet, timid, she opened up slowly as she became friends and then best friends with Samrat ... and then his love, but she was still the quiet, follower type. In S2,she showed shades of a new, mature, more assertive and open Gunji ... the woman she has become, who still loved Samrat, but was also filled with bitterness and hate which was was kept her away from him till now.
BUT now - she has lost all the bitterness, the hate and is left only with regret for what she did to him, regret for what they have lost, because of her. Yet she still has to stay the new Gunjan, a Gunjan who is definitely all woman now ... who has gone beyond that shy, quiet girl to a woman who has strength and purpose in her life, who knows where and what she is, who has found the happiness she had lost three years ago, and is content with herself, her work and her life ... except for one part of it .. her relationship with Samrat. That is the one area of her life left unresolved - Samrat is very much a part of her life again and always will be ... but their relationship needs a new turn, a new shade. She is now a woman in love, with nothing much to hold her back, and all the reason to try and undo the harm she did. And the new, mature Gunjan in love should be a dream to watch ... if they stay like this and not like the BB career track.
So it's Samrat's turn to change again. To match the woman Gunji has become, he HAS to become a MAN .. is this why the new track, which will force him to take the lead to save the college and take a position of authority ... and maybe find his place in the world, and beside her.
Let's hope so ... the SG story has always had interesting turns, and IF the cv's are so inclined, this could be another one ... having said that, with the present cv's ... don't really think so. But it's interesting again to visualise where the SG story could go ... as always.

Rest of episode was about strangers taking over the college and throwing things out, Nups trying to do her leaderbaazi again (back to screaming mode, has that woman ever learnt voice modulation???) and Samrat determined to save the college. Oh, and Nups belatedly wanting to get SG together again ... she finally remembered she had a sister whose lovelife she had wrecked. Body doubles for Mayank ;) Was he off for his birthday?
