31/8 - Epi 65 ... Bro-Sis - nice!

31st Aug

Starts with Anjali missing, and Nani castigates Arnav for being mean to her, especially just before Raksha Bandhan. Anjali is really treated like a doll in the household, no wonder she is such a weak character. She has just never been allowed to grow up. Anyway, Arnav justifies himself by saying he's called Khushi back - doesn't mention the means he used ... much to slimeball Shyam's dismay. Was amusing to see Slimeball make his rapid exit ... wonder how long he will keep getting away with this!
Bell rings - Khushi. Arnav opens the door - she looks at him once, then looks away, refusing to meet his eyes. No self-pity or becharapan in her eyes, though, it's a mix of uncertainty and defiance. You got me between a rock and a hard place, so here I am. And a touch of triumph in the look Arnav gives Naani - see, I knew she would come.
And Khushi refuses to look at him again, or even greet him, she walks past him to greet Nani and the rest with her usual sunny smile - and asks for Anjali. Nani says she's missing, Arnav wants to get the hell out of Khushi's presence, but Nani deals him a side blow by telling him - no, commanding him to take Khushi with him. And when both argue, she explains that Anjali won't come back unless she knows Arnav brought Khushi home. They both have to agree. And Khushi gets her first taste of Arnav the family guy - who can't ride roughshod over his grandmother's orders, and who will do anything for his Di.
Liked the scene as they both walk out together - like a couple, with Nani standing behind them, the aarti thali in her hands. Well, they already have her blessing, for sure. Love this crafty old lady - she's managing things much better now than the earlier blustering, blundering orders which set Arnav's back up immediately!

La the blah ... so blah that even Mami is smarter!

Car scene - short and tense - this couple really has chemistry, even in the smallest of scenes. Subtle touches, the way Arnav notices Khushi being unbelted, he's driving fast, so he orders her to put her seatbelt, and when it gets stuck, he stops the car to belt her up. And as always, he has no hesitation encroaching on her personal space - he does it as though it's his right to get as close to her as he needs to. It's Khushi who feels uncomfortable, aware ...
And when she sees his worry, and tries to say something reassuring, he blasts her again - it's all your fault! And she just stares at him ... and he's forced to remember his own words which drove his Di to tears.
Khushi remembers yet another big aarti which Di might be attending ... so he turns the car without a word ... first time he has ever listened to anything Khushi said?
And of course Anjali is there ... my first reaction when I saw her sobbing like a little girl was laughter - has she been crying the whole night? She's such a baby!
But the bro-sis scene was very sweet - after Arnav runs up to his sis, the little poem, his apology, and the words - don't leave me like our mother did ... those who get lost, never come back ... the CV's keep dropping these little hints, when will they get to the meat of the story?! Then Anjali asks how he found her ... and Arnav remembers that Khushi brought him here. But he doesn't say anything, and Anjali sees Khushi there, and is thrilled. And Arnav turns to see Khushi has witnessed this very vulnerable side of his. But Khushi doesn't say anything, she doesn't claim credit for bringing Arnav here, she just turns away, as though in apology at witnessing their private moment, and Arnav's face softens slightly. Yes, Khushi has come back home. That's what you wanted, isn't it?
Interesting choice of words. Khushi has come back home.
Anjali thrilled, teases that she should do this drama more often. Arnav not amused.
And Khushi has seen the Beast turn human just for a short while.

Shyam angry that Khushi has taken the job at RM. He's in a situation that's getting more and more slippery. This is going to explode soon.

Back to RM, preparing for Rakhee. And Anjali calls Shyam to tell him that Khushi will tie rakhi to him.

One very forgettable sequence of La belittling Raksha bandhan, and Khushi doing a bit of sermonizing ... wish they wouldn't make her into typical SP bahu! :((( Especially when La keeps insulting her again and again ... how come La is so blase about showing her unconcern about her 'training' even in front of Nani?!
