Again, story moving forward slowly ... and we get the first Arshi scene after a long drought. Loved Sanaya's expressions in the dupatta scene ... and Arnav was good too. Both apt in terms of characterization.
Shyam and Buaji ... *rofl* ... and exactly as I predicted! Didn't expect it would happen so soon, though.
So the entire episode -
Starts with Shyam calling Khushi, he learns that she's in the head office, not in the warehouse he sent her. Very ambiguous look on his face ... this Shyam is going to be an interesting character, and his character is going to unfold slowly. On the surface smooth-talking, polite, 'good guy' ... but he's gradually worming his way into the family ... very, very slowly. A subtly written role ... am enjoying it. Khushi being completely naive, blurts out the problem of Bua's pension, so Shyam offers to help again.
Office scene - they really need to write these better! Can't the writers pick up bare minimum office jargon, rather than the ghisa-pita 'you must deal with our company' kind of lines? Especially when spoken by Lame, and the audience is even more lame stuffed-shirted expressionless guys ...
Khushi does some work, or tries to - thankfully, they are making her a little less ditzy! At least she's doing the work assigned to her. She lights diya in front of devi ma ... they have a Devi ma in the office as well? Then she decides to take a small stroll. And the smoke from the diya apparently sets off the fire alarm ... and the sprinklers! Never saw that one before ... they need to reset some settings for sure. Cigarettes create more smoke than a diya! Anyway, was glad to see that the sprinklers scene was not due to some major stupidity - have the complaints reached the cv's already?! They were certainly loud and plentiful enough!
So the fire alarm goes off, and Arnav stands like a statue as rain pours down on him, and everyone else scurries (sensibly) for cover.
Khushi in the meantime grabs some tea ... *sigh* with the weather the way it is, I want some too! With a samosa or two!
Security discovers that fire alarm went off because of the diya. Arnav instead of asking for the fire alarm settings to be reset from such ridiculously sensitive levels, asks which idiot lit the diya.
Shyam enters buaji's home and proceeds to maskofy her. Loved bua's dialogues *rofl*.... phree phund mein naate rishte banaye lagye ... Bua melts *rofl* ... especially at mention of Lucknow ... Shyam looks at picture of Khushi with family ... hmm ...
Khushi in carpark, no money for food, so she can eat her ber ... Arnav strides out in a temper, and she hides ... first time she's been wise ... everytime I meet Lard governer, something bad happens. But then Khushi being Khushi, fires up again with a 'good' idea - to get his address so that she can return his money ... And also crow a little about getting a job, of course! Arnav not amused to see her, warns her, don't mess with me right now, I'm not in the mood ... honey, when are you ever in the mood?! Khushi of course, doesn't believe in stepping back, tells him with more bravado than truth, that she's not scared of him ... really, Khushi??? You aren't?! Not even a little bit?
Then follows tu tu main main as usual, insulting each other, she wants his address to return his money, he says, how will you return it, who have you hooked now? in a tone that's demeaning and insulting ... K gets angrier, turns to leave and dupatta gets stuck in car (but of course ... *rofl*) ... She tries to free it, but again, being Khushi, since she's stuck there, might as well talk while she's doing what she has to do ... so she tells him she's got a job, he wonders which idiot would hire her *rofl* ... umm, that would be you, Mr. ASR! Khushi defends her boss ... finally he tires of the game and tells her to get lost, but she can't ... so he mutters something rude, gets out of the car and comes towards her ... and she backs away immediately, tension and awareness rising suddently ... they're alone in the carpark, what is he gonna do? But all he does is to
jerk her dupatta free, tearing a quarter of it off in the procees. And she's left humiliated and defeated ... no one can beat Sanaya in these expressions, she is so amazing, especially her eyes ...
But she recovers fast (a bit too fast for my liking, actually) ... anger returning (now that he's left and she's safe to splutter a little more!) about not having the last word - again! And looking at her torn dupatta, she vows she's cut Rs 300 from the amount she owes him ... the rate KA are going, she'll recover the whole amount from her torn clothes pretty soon!
Khushi back to office, she discovers her diya fiasco, but before she can confess, Bimbo duo kidnap her to eat (they want to get rid of her for some unknown reason).
Meantime, Anjali and naani find out that someone lit a diya in Arnav's office, and are happy. Naani still doing jasoosi.
And Shyam inveigles his way into Buaji's good books, and then into her house. So he is going to stay there as paying guest.

hey devi maiyya...joh darr tha wohi hua!!! lol
ReplyDeleteD, I just caught up with two week's worth of epis in one go!...have seriously overdosed!...aur ab...I can't stop talking in a lucknowi accent! roflol..seriously, it's true!!...god knows how long this effect is going to last!! ;p
Hmmmm...coming to the show...have to say I have mixed feelings about it..I actually do like it overall...and Sanaya really is a treat to watch... but some elements/characters of the show are very *loud*...even for someone as filmy as me!!!...and that's saying something..!!! lol...it may be a Star Plus show but it seems to be suffering from a strong Star One hangover! I wonder why that is? Can't work out who is meant to be the target audience and how it is meant to fit in amongst the other heavy duty Star Plus shows?! Oh well, who am I to question why? ;p...am sure there are plenty of guni people behind the scenes to work it out...and I'm sure it will become transparent soon enough! ;-)
Shall try and keep up with it on a daily basis from now!..as Sanaya is enjoyable to watch!
P x
hey devi maiyya ... two weeks worth of episodes at a go??!!! Good lord ... most of them should have been in ffwd ... the 2nd and 3rd weeks were definitely not a patch on the first! Just saw a recap of the first three weeks episodes and I realised that even more forcibly!
ReplyDeleteHave had a crazy weekend ... will reply in detail later here or on whatsapp... but good to see you here! And did you say you're gonna be watching daily? Yippee ... let the pappelisms begin!
And am so glad you're enjoying Sanaya!!! She's surprising me every day, even when I've been a fan of hers for almost two years now!
