28th Feb Tues
A meh episode for me ... although a lot of our predictions of yesterday came true, showing that the show is still sticking to its characterization.
Mami telling Mama ... Arnav overhearing and moving to do damage control - umm, really? Was this the first time he realized his Happily Married facade was slipping?
The ArHi scene ... I felt really bad for Khushi, so totally clueless as to what had got into her bipolar husband this time, after the bitter slanging match of the night before ... suddenly so much TLC, you could see her incredulity, her disbelief ... and was there the faintest smidgeon of hope rising .... and then he crushed it again ... though thank god Arnav explained after Mami left, or I would have been after him with dandas today.The ArHi magic was completely missing ... well, it was meant to be ... I would say kudos to the actors for being able to switch it off and on as required. And the meaning of the kangans completely lost ... didn't Arnav feel anything at all, any sadness that he was putting the last nishani of his mother so unfeelingly on her wrists ... did it mean nothing to him at all, other than the need to fool Mami? I thought he was sentimental about his mother, if no one else. And I didn't see the need for Khushi to be so comically klutzy suddenly :( ...
And he didn't tell her to move back into the room - he just told her to tidy up her sheets and quilt every morning x(
Nope, not feeling happy with bitwa today at all ...
The guests loudly insulting the Raizadas and Mami, Nani and Anjali all mutely listening to them - very, very typically SP-ish, Ekta-ish ... really, in that kind of society, who would be so loudly and obnoxiously on-your-face rude? Could see huge SP influence here ... hated the scene. Good that Arnav defended Khushi - well, if he had kept silent, the RTRW would have another few hundred miles added to it.
The only good thing was that Arnav made his point to his own family, Mami included, that Khushi was his wife, the relationship was legal and valid (though that is still questionable) ... and that he wouldn't allow anyone to say anything to her.
But the entire episode was long on drama and short on emotion ...especially after the very charged episode yesterday.

I so agree with you -
ReplyDeletewas actually wondering - 'where the hell do you have such ceremonies and such guests??? Very very Ekta Kapoor style episode - can we add one more Shiddat pleae please dont let this degenerate into one of those!!!
Completely agree that the only good thing was ASR standing up for his wife albeit publicly and also that he explained why he was being nice. (But why he not mention the Kangans or that they were just for the day or something???)
Akash was silent again, am starting to get really irritated with him.
Sleeping arrangements still not sorted :( what if Mami becomes Bond again?
ON a lighter note:
- The mami is funny - Manorama Bond!!! Bahu parat I!!!
- Always thought poor boys are stuck with blues and greys but believe me, i would do anything to gift ASR in a proper blue suit!! Horrid Horrid brown suit with a shiny boarder/Horrid grey suit with a bigger boarder!! EEUUU - someone get him clothes along with Khushi!
- Finally, hope we do get to see a scene where He Does talk to her like that - all mushy and romantic :D
thats my SHIDDAT too ..... with the past and present they can easily run this beautifully for another year at least. Hope they keep the characters intact
DeleteTrust me Mona I have been dying to take ASR shopping...but I still think he looks good despite some of the lesser suits...and some are not so bad...and I actually used to like the white shirt and black suit combo. Back to classics. But guess Khushi tore that...why didn't she tear the shiny brown one!...but then we couldnt have seen lipstick mark on the cuff oh well!
DeleteGargi,
Deletecool toh tumne bhi dekha na woh lipstikc ka daag. pehle haldi ab lipstick.
Yaar in gande gande suits se toh achche uske vest waale looks the. Trust me.
But is it also cos he is now ASR. At the start he used to wear only suits. As the serial progressed, he started wearing more of vests and less of blazers. Needing all the barricades he can get his hand on against Khushi? hmm
Sans I bet he'll see the torn shirt with her lipstick ka mark in his cupboard and remember her...it'll be his next keepsake though unknowingly for now...after she walks out on him...
DeleteOh i so agree Gargi, the black and white were the only saving grace (hence had not mentioned it in the EEUU List!!)
DeleteI feel for you sister - wish these CV could go shopping! but right now they are on the verge of deciding the direction of this serial - it can go all downhill and become a Ekta Kapoor serial or can actually get even better - so if they have to choose - i say - stick to creating the story, we will bare the Brown Shinny shirts (Yuk!)
Mona: The Raizadas usually have such nasty guests jo invariably kuch na kuch gadbad kartay hain. Nasty aunties!
DeleteG & S: Yes the suits are back...are they new, anyhow bitwa needs to do shopping for biwi and himself.
And I dont understand one thing about the Guptas - Okay you are mad with Khushi, but what about her hubby aka the power centre of the house according to your senior damaad, shouldn't they care something about that?
Scene of the day :
ReplyDelete"aaj yehi pehen na hai" Khushi shakes her head -Sanaya too good :D
"tum pagal ho, tumne meri shirt fardi" ..... Barun's trembling control..KUDOS
Btw where has Shyam and NK disappeared to?!?!?!
The reason yesterday's episode rocked and todays was good was the glaring abscence of Reptilian spousewa...Sama, pls don't ask where he is...cv's might send him back!!! Then we'll be asking doesn't this fellow have to work! (Anyway Aman is running AR group he's probably efficient enough to run Shyaam law practice too)
DeleteGood one Gargi :)
DeleteBut think about it, RS has been missing for 3 epis now (Fri was just a guest appearance). He is sure coming back tomorrow or day after.
Things are getting peaceful at RM. The pot of soup needs to be stirred. NK too needs to actually say bye.
Shyam aka Abhaas is sick it seems according to rangmunch, so that is why he is absent. NK well I guess he is busy shooting for his new show.
DeleteWho knows we might not see him bye til they finally the new entry. Usually ek gaya ek aaya funda hai na iss show ka.
Sama: Ya, the way he said it*thud*
Shwetha,
DeleteSach main Hayyyeeee..
Aaj yehi pehenna hai! *THUD*
Come! *THUD*
Ab Theek hai *THUD* (last time was when he let her hair down; aaj collar, progress bitwa *wink*
And mamiji's - Aisa kya hua rajai main ki woh bed par nahi, couch par nahi seedhe poolwa ke bagal main jaa giri - ROFL *gutter mind at work* Mamiji, do you really want to know?
And the ASR style summary - MUAH!
For a second I was like bhaagi, kahaan bhaagi Khushi, abhi se bhaag gayi ghar chod ke? :)
Sandy,And the haircut, it takes atleast 4 years off him, don't you think? Makes him more likeable,lol than ghana baal ASR.
DeleteShwetha,
DeleteDefinitely. Ghana baal ASR looks positively middle aged. Not a M&B hero
Dia,
ReplyDeleteI know what u are feeling!! I reiterate this ( my last comment on your Post 201 was exactly about this) CVs are treading dangerous ground here!!
The audience has alarmingly great expectations from this love story. The handling of real and “forced” feeling scenes will have a great bearing on how this story moves forward. Some of us are going to look with a microscope on how this affects Arnav (all this is his doing after all); one wrong step and we are bound to feel cheated. The right to RTRW has to be earned in our eyes.
On the kangan scene, I have a feeling the CVs did not put in too much thought in terms of how it will be perceived by viewers( someone who is looking at the symbolism it denotes) as they were just working on the “muh dikhayi” scenes. Frankly, they could have just done away with that and instead shown the conflict of emotions of Arnav on parting with the kangans to Khushi . Naturally, one is forced to ask what has this achieved for Khushi other than more confusion? Now after this, I would not blame Khushi if she went to Australia with NK (as IF has been suggesting!!) ….noo noo…I don’t mean that!!
Rekha,
Deletechucked a Jimmy Choo at you...Khushi Australia...bakwas mat karo Samjhi Tum! :P
Is it just possible that the scenes for the day got changes bcos of the actor who plays RS being unwell? Entire family present with just NK and RS missing conspicuously.
Have some thoughts on the kangan scene, will comment later.
Like u said, it sure will be good to see teh dynamics between a forced happily married and an out of control happily married scene. These actors will be able to carry it off too.
Sans if you're chucking Jimmy choo's my way too for that then i'll happily agree to shipping ODG off to Australia..;-)..
Delete(sorry in totally random bakwas ROFL mood after a very mami filled epi:-))
Rekha, I THINK the whole kangan thing will come out today. Khushi still does not know that it is his mom's kangan. So my guess is when she goes, she will see the box and see the letter.
DeleteNow it all depends on how arnav reacts. We all know that Khushi will be emotional about it, the question is will he be a jerk about it or will watch quietly and the flicker starting again?
Rekha,
DeleteI know, and I agree with your comment 100%. The way the cv's take these scenes is crucial ... last night just did not work for me, because there was no trace of genuine softness in Arnav ... nothing on seeing Khushi half-dressed in his shirt either ... his anger, his worry about what Mami could see ... It was all about play-acting for Mami ...or did I miss something? and how could she hear everything from where she was? Did she have a microphone attached to the binoculars or what?
And again, no emotion attached to the giving of the kangan at all, when he and Anjali had cried over those kangan earlier - that was the time he had asked Khushi for the first time - do you think my mother would be happy with me?
Agreed, he might not have handed over the kangan to Khushi any other way right now, when he was completely focussed on Mami, agreed it was like a blessing from his mom as well ... but the complete lack of emotion just didn't work for me.
And now that bitwa has finally got it into his head that he does need to playact for the benefit of his family as well as for outsiders, how the cv's take it here onwards is crucial.
Ps. Manorama Bond seems to have superpowers - can hear low voiced conversations from across the pool and a floor above!! Or does Bond have cool gadgets that can as a binoculars and hearing device!!
ReplyDeleteshe has one of those satellite sonar devices which can pick up minute gritting of teeth, gasping and holding of breath by freaked out newly wed dulhans and sweet nothings about countng stars...:-p
DeleteI liked today's episode although the guest scene was a bit too loud. I especially liked the Arshi scene in Arnav's bedroom. Both Barun and Sanaya were excellent with their expressions. Yes, the scene was not something I had expected but then this show had always taken a cliched scene and turned it around to surprise us again and again. So I guess I should have expected that they would do it again.
ReplyDeleteI saw some symbolism in the scene. I'll try to put across my thoughts although I don't know how cogent I'll be as I am feeling very sleepy. Anyway here goes.
Remember the scene where Anjali puts on Shyam's ring in Khushi's finger? Well today's scene to me was a throw back to that scene. Anjali gifted that lehenga to Khushi (the lehenga here is symbolic of Khushi-Shyam engagement). Khushi wore it but only for a short while because the lehenga and by extension that relationship was not meant to be.
The lehenga choli tears and in the process exposes her body much like how her engagement with Shyam breaks and exposes the vulnerability of her family honour and Anjali's marriage. Khushi tries to mend the tear in the lehenga choli much like how she tries to address the problem which not only ripped her family but also threatened to rock Anjali's fragile marriage.
Before she can embark on her mending activity she needs something to cover herself with while she is at it. She has nothing but Arnav's shirt to take recourse to. Now the white shirt is symbolic of Arshi's pure relationship which was Khushi's cloak of honour as she went about mending the damaged family honour by getting Payal and Aakash together.
However, in the hurry she was in restoring peace and happiness to her family she fails to take care of her delicate relationship with Arnav and ends up tearing it by her thoughtless action.
Although Arnav is furious with her for belittling his pure love for her (much like the way she ruined his perfectly good shirt), he is forced to put up a facade for the benefit for his family.
I hope all this makes sense because my head feels too fuzzy to think clearly.
Opti,
DeleteTouched that you mentioned me in your symbolism post on the forum. Thanks!
Anonymous...the symbolism was nice...i am so bad at perceiving these that even they were shown hundreds of times, it will escape my attention...unless it is pointed out in these very terms...all the members here are so gud with this symbolism thing...
ReplyDeleteBTW Dia, the comment I mentioned was in Post 202 not 201...
My head is spinning now with this new perspective but i still want Arnav to resolve the matter ASAP.
Girls, can u think of any scenario that will help Arnav and Khushi to come to an understanding of sorts ( even without the MU being cleared) so that these acting "happily married" can be more realistic rather duping an already confused Khushi. In this situation, I can't accept Khushi going along with Arnav's whims every single time. Today is ok, she was shocked, did not have time to react? But not the next time....what do you say???
You know how last week each day was allotted to one member...well today was mami’s day...I love Pierce Brosnan but today enjoyed mami’s bondwa just as much...from her bond style bak bak with her indulgent husband(he’s so used to her he takes her way to light-she’s sharper than you Raizada’s Mamu!!)...and the way she whips around with a ‘huh!!’ expression when nani says ‘you’re correct’....bet she wished she’d recorded that one...(see mutual benefit-because of khushi mami heard those words for the first time...and her slyly walking off at the cross questioning from K-serial borrowed aunties- nani said she’ll handle it-now let her!
ReplyDeleteAnd my favourite line in the whole episode...’Arnav bitwa is never so nice to anyone!! I’m sure there’s something blackwa in the daal’...does she know her nephew or what- I’m telling you guys she is sharp as a whip...even she doesn’t know how much she catches on to...She knows Arnav so well...he is not sweet talking kind of guy- he either yells or yells and occasionally teases and smirks sexily ...he doesn’t do the doting husband role...even khushi knows that..heck she knew that before she married him also (remember when she’s imagining what it would be like being married to him- tum bilkul Delhi ki auto rickshaw jaise lag rahi ho!!)
hahaha! Mona I was thinkingthe same thing through the whole scene...Khushi can barely hear some of the things Arnav's saying through grittted teeth how the hell can Manodrama?
But its okay some leeway because mami played the unlikely cupidwa in today's episode. It won't happen but how kickass would it be if mami became phatti saadi's new bff?
I agree Dia! Glad he cleared up he was acting straight away...Today’s Arhi scene was totally unromantic, it wasn't supposed to be romantic though –guys we asked for acting-that's what he was doing...next time we'll ask for getting accidently lost in each other-Dm, cv’s and genie seem to be complying...;-)
As for the much discussed kangans...think that
a.They mean more to Anjali.
b.Note he did not give her the letter.
c.He probably doesn’t expect someone like Khushi(home breaker) to understand its value to him so doesn’t bother explaining it to her. It’ll hurt is Di if he doesn’t give it. So give them now. Take them back later or after 6 months. No choice. Must play the part at all personal and emotional cost.
And finally him standing up for her...where do they get such relatives? Yeesh...the middle classed Gupta’s relatives were far more cultured...It wasn’t a big deal that he stood up for her. He had to- it was about time. And once again he makes it clear. No one besmirches the RAIZADA name.
Also to be noted he’s probably thinking-I’m living my own personal hell for my family- the least you can do is get on with the fact that she’s my wife-for God’s sake I get we upset you but its been 3 whole days...let’s get past the waterworks so that I can hold it together and keep the plan from falling apart at its seems.
Gargi,
DeleteThis is the 2nd time nani has agreed/ praised mami thanks to Khushi. First time was with that elaborately staged dram about la not knowing the "granth" Then too Nani said Manorama also knows so La how can you not know. But yes Mami's reaction was worth watching. hats off to Utkarsha Naik for breathing so much life into this character. OTT, blunt, selfish - she is bang on with her eyes rolling, speaking style, Englishwa dialogues and all.
Really enjoyed her today...sometimes she's unbearable and OTT but today really enjoyed all her scenes especially her very genuine-If Arnav's being nice there has to be something wrong!!
DeleteAnyway her son and daughter-in-law were like garden gnomes in the making so she compensated by talking even more...
You know Gargi, Mami will be responsible for Khushi sleeping in the room. He cant spend all night looking if mami is going to watch over, so it is better, if she sleeps inside he draws the curtain so no one knows what is happening.
DeleteWith you hoping she turns BFF of Khushi, who knows Mami just as she might be instrumental in bringing back to his room, she might help khushi back in the house too!
His enough was as much for the outsiders and for his family. See he will not pick a direct fight with them, well atleast he will try to, yesterday when he told the family, it is a marriage, a valid relationship, ppl should respect that, it was more for his family.
Stop with the drama with Khushi, as it is she has me to deal with.
Shwetha,
DeleteIf Mami ends up being the reason for Khushi to come back into the room and later the house, it will be ironic.
She has always been the most vociferous about her dsilike of Khushi. But somewhere does she see similarities in Khushi and her situation? (esp given she too has some skeletons in her closet which resulted her in being a raizada bahu. Khushi does too.)
And like all of you have been saying, she is sharp. And once she realizes Khushi's loyalty to Anjali, Mami will take her side albeit grudgingly. She also never was too charmed by Shyam's talks.
Arnav's "Stop with the drama with Khushi, as it is she has me to deal with" - yeh pyaar nahi toh aur kya hai.
Sandy, she will always be affectionate towards Anjali's bhabhi and Arnav's wife. When the nasty aunty came she had a fiercely protective look about her bahus.
DeleteThat is Mami for you, she is always very loyal towards Raizadas, is the first one to always pounce on their defend, Nani and Anjali are too busy being classy and crying.
So that juice scene was just that reiterating her concern for Anjali. And deep inside she wants Arnav to be very happy after all he has gone through and like she said bhaag kar shaadi kiya, love marriage hai yet sleeping separately anyone will be concerned right.
SN: No precap...3 episode absence of RS hence promise of RS presence in RM tomorrow...No clues and slips on SBS/SBB segments yet...and its a Wednesday episode... something big coming our way? Why exactly does Arnav have to find Khushi?...please please let it be unrelated to RS.
ReplyDeleteGargi,
DeleteYes even I wondered on the absence of RS. Something will happen. Remember RS is also injured and licking his wounds. He is waiting to lash out at Arnav.
Something will be shown tomorrow and hopefully there will be a new promo too.
SN: RS and RB - a couple truly made for each other
The spoilers said we will see more arnav scenes, so who knows they end up having the star convo again?
DeleteIf they end up having it, will khushi again react to something Arnav said and tell him "You once asked me if your mother is happy with you?. Today I know she is not..." OUCH
DeleteSandy - RS and RB - who is RB?
DeleteSans, I hope whatever they say to one another the don't go to the your parents would be disappointed in you lines...its too deep a hurt and something they have in common, a pain that brings them together and it should not be used to hurt the other person further...hope they stick to their usual snide comments and leave parents out of it.
DeleteWhoops!! Dia,
DeleteMeant reptilian spousewa and rani saheba..by mistake wrote RB. RS square actually
Gargi,
Hmm actually agree with you. Too low a blow. Ok let them just have FBs of that star terrace sequence.
Gargi....that remark abt mami being sharp as a whip, even she not knowing what she catches on....had me in splits, reminded me of that "granth" episode....Manorama being the ally for Khushi was spoken abt in our blog hain na?? She was cupid today....Delhi ab door nahin....
ReplyDeleteThe dust settles!
ReplyDeleteIts the 3rd day after a storm hit 2 families. Much has happened in this time. We have been gradually taken through the after shocks over the past week. Hurt, anger, pain, sense of betrayal, accusations, tears and angst. The perpetrators of the storm were the last to vent it out.Having absorbed everyone's reactions they spewed venom at each other.After a violent outburst, a person usually feels empty, drained. But life needs to go on. And there are still rituals to complete.
***
Today Arnav again saw how strong willed his Di can be. She showed no sign of relenting / forgiving. "You spill and I may think about it" is her stance. No more cajoling to get work done, I told you to do something and it must be done.It is important (to both of us) and Arnav accepts. How can you forget? What more are you hiding..?
***
Arnav's actions are confusing Khushi.She is again going to ask him. Never one for subtlety it will come up between them:
- He married me by threatening me
- He says he will never consider me his wife or give me the position. Yet he stands up for me in front of strangers and family. (Why is he hiding it from them? Why this act? FOR WHOM is he doing this?) Not for himself as he is hurting as much as me. Then WHO?
- He let them have their way and complete the rituals.
- He says he hates me. Sharing the same air as me disgusts me
- My pain still affects him
***
The family still depends on him. His word is final, the Law. Nani may be the matriarch and make tall claims of managing the guests to Mamiji, but it had to be Arnav who finally does the deed.
Today's episode was all about linking back to Akash's words"Everyone in this house has their own opinion, but at the end of the day, it is Bhai who takes the final decision. Everyone listens to him" And Arnav Singh Raizada does not care 2 cents about what the world thinks. He has sorted it out in his mind, To him it is right and so it is.
I did not quite like this dilution of Nani's character. She is shown as a wise and strong matriarch but then is not prepared with a suitable answer to people's expected Qs. Mami, Nani and Anjali's sheepish / embarassed looks were perhaps the need of the hour but seemed too dramatic for me.Then why invite Khushi? Why claim to give her all rights as the bahu when you are not able to manage it well and end up exposing her to strangers
Discomfort could have been shown with a simple yet satisfying answer. (But then I guess the CVs overtly wanted to establish Khushi's added turmoil from Arnav's actions).
When Nani told Khushi "the way you came" - did she mean into the house or down for the function - former I guess?
Sandy: Figured out the comments feed, thanks and hugs.
DeleteAh, I loooved the Q&A khushi will have in her mind. He hates her yet fights with his family for her. He is not happy and keeps taunting her yet defends her right in place of everyone in the society? Why?
This happened to Nani in La's case too during diwali. It was Mami who came to their defense till Arnav again shut them up with the proposal. See be it Nani or Anjali are not capable of talking the language that Mami is comfy in or Arnav who has dealt with worst and knows how to shut people up. So in that sense, they were in character for me.
What I didn't particularly like was Nani starting on Khushi again, and yes she hinted at the way she got married, arrey why not wait till arnav comes along and then start, why pick on her alone?
I think the problem with both Nani and Anjali is that somewhere that nasty aunty's words rang true...what was the need for the rushed marriage?...why would anyone rush into this without a solid reason...and of course the worse possible thoughts come to mind so Nani once again starts off with Khushi(her relationship with Arnav has always been tumultuous, I kind of get the feeling her rapport with khushi was better hence nani tends to express it to khushi more too. Similarly Anjali-who I liked today- has the closest relationship with Arnav and she very sensibly points hang on its as much his fault...and I felt she silently added...if not more.)
DeleteSandy, I agree about the dilution of Nani's character today. She was the one who insisted that both the bahus will have their munh dikhayi, she should have been ready with some plausible reason for the hurried shaadi - she could have just said, arey we all know Chotey doesn't believe in all these rasam sambhars, so they had a very private temple wedding ... would have been true in all respects!
DeleteMami - her character was maintained - she says what she wants to the two bahus, but for outsiders, she is a Raizada first and so are they. I like the way she gave that tiny smile of relief when both the bahus were 'passed' after their munh dikhayi.
Gargi, and all ... I was happy Anjali supported Khushi and said that about it being equally Arnav's fault ... could she have overheard Khush's convo with DM?
And yes, Nani thinks of Khushi as her own, and one is always more disappointed with one's own, not the paraya ... so Nani sounding off Khushi was justified, especially as she did it only after the guests had all left. Anjali expected Arnav to confide in her, because she is closest to him, but Nani was actually more disappointed in Khushi, because Arnav has never confided in her anyway, but Khushi has always been close to her heart.
Shwetha / Gargi / Dia,
DeleteYes Mami is in character. She is always a Raizada Bahu to outsiders. She never airs family issues in public.
G's thought about Anjali saying it is as much his fault (if not more ) - yes her eyes said that. Dia I wonder is she did hear that conversation? And next morning she needs to give kangan to Khushi and also asks Arnav what more is he hiding.
Also read a note someplace wherein the Q asked was if she followed Arnav upto that terrace? And heard the last part of that conversation but not the hug and all RS claims prior to that? Does she have a vague idea? I find this open loop very intriguing. And at this time way things stand, if his Di tells Arnav Khushi is innocent, he will believe. He need not ask or tell Khushi anything, Khushi will be none the wiser. But Anjali will also need to know a half truth for this marriage to continue for a while before RS is exposed completely to all.
About Nani, well ok she is feeling let down more so by Khushi and the taunt by the neighbour about the 'shadiness' 'necessity' of the marriage struck home. Additionally she too does not know.
DeleteBut like she later said, oh come bless the children, she could have said well it was a rushed one on arnav's insistence hence we could not inform you earlier. No need to re-inforce the public view that yes there is something to this marriage that is not palatable to us. Same thing, said and done differently.
But like I said, they did it so Arnav got a chance to publicly proclaim Khushi is his wife
Guys if Anjali had overheard Khushi's conversation with the Devi Maiyya wouldn't he have marched upto chotey and immediately demanded why he forced Khushi into marrying him? Why he threatened to call of the Payash wedding to marry someone whom he hates and who hates him back? She never steps back from questioning him...if she'd overheard she wouldn't have let chotey give her another evasive answer.
DeleteEither that person was akash or NK OR very unlikely Mami.
DeleteAgree with Dia, Nani loves Khushi. That is the thing right, the raizadas including Arnav never expected anything in return from khushi. Their love was unconditional.
I am not taking anythign away from Guptas, but somewhere it lacked not from babuji cos her being adopted always comes up.
Nani's disappointment also stems from the fact that Khushi should have been welcomed in a better way be at home or in s ociety as their bahu.
Small wishes which came true:
ReplyDelete1. Like Shwetha and gargi guessed, mami did tell Mama - thankfully Arnav overheard
2. Mami is the new cupid in RM. And she is not going to stop. She still smells a rat - Arnav talking so sweetly to someone - something amiss.
3. He starts acting like a besotted husband - finally. There will come a time when both will try to enact as newly weds and that is when emotions may take over.
4. Brownie points to Anji was saying her brother is equally at fault. Somewhere Anjali still sees Arnav as the majority blameholder comapred to Khushi(Nani was harsh today
5. I said Khushi will get scolded about leaving the bedding outside - yep bitwa snarled at her to never forget
6. Yday Khushi told DM and you let it all happen, how could you stay silent and today Arnav spoke - He who had told her this is a compromise, today said HAQ SE - Khushi meri patni hai aur is ghar ki bahu
We are married and this is not a legitimate relationship - not one of infamy.
7. We had hoped Arnav would maange the bedding issue stating romance, poolside and stars and he almost did
Some misses:
1. What happened to Khushi's payal?
2. Arnav has not bothered about her burn - in character with the "I hate you Khushi" ASR. Even back then he could neevr hear her taunted or hurt by others. But he would never show her his care.
SN1: New Tagline says - will arnav be able to search for khushi and find her - Dia / Shwetha / gargi - mandir scene from rakhi recall and relate will happen?
SN 2: Shwetha, thanks for the recap
SN3: Will Arnav fulfill his promise of spending tonight by the poolside counting stars
SN4: Did anyone see that light smile / smirk on Aakash' face when Arnav stood up to the guests and said she is Mrs. Arnav Singh Raizada.
Same that's what I was thinking what happened to her Payal?
DeleteI thought also that it was such an odd thing to say about the stars when Arnav was acting like a "happily married couple2 to Khushi about the stars - especially with the significance stars hold to both of them.
Another thing I know ASR's dimaag is on an extended around the world trip but doesn't he add up all the little things like the fact that Khushi was previously engaged to a guy named Shayaam?! Who her marriage was called off with because he did something that betrayed/hurt her family a lot. His KJ/bro-in-law is also called Shyaam PLUS Khushi is having an affair with him too? I mean what is Khushi supposed to have a fetish or a thing for Shyaams in particular? Really does he not see/remember any of these things? So much for ODB's supposed renowned sharp brain.
Oh I was a little disappointed in him with the giving her the bangles without any inner turmoil or significance when passing them over after all they are his beloved Maas whom he treasures a lot.
But I'm not surprised that he didn't ask her to move back into the room either on the recliner or bed separately as from his point of view though he does love her (& hates himself for it) he still feels disgusted by her & has a sense of repulsion for her as his image of her has been distorted after from his point of view that he found out that she's having an affair with a married man - who is his dear sisters husband, the sister who she seemed to adore & who's adoration was returned to he too & on top of that he feels betrayed that she doesn't love him & that it was all some sort of act & now she still has the nerve to act all innocent & to top it all off he still loves her, still cares about her & it hurts him so much to hurt her. -- So considering all that (sorry for the mini essay) he's not treating her as bad as some would when all you know is his point of view & every time he or someone else hurts her he feels just as much pain as she does if not more as he despises himself for feeling bad for her.
Anyway despite all that I have a shiddat too to add - I want it to rain at night so that ODB will be forced to bring in his feisty little wife (& then maybe we could have a mini rain scene?)I mean he can't be that cold hearted to leave her out in the rain after all he was in so much turmoil when the girl was just shivering outside on the second night.
- Sunny
I'm sure he'll find her...as long as RS doesn't find her first and Arnav doesn't finds both of them together(especially if Khushi's unconscious-what! she tends to be!)
DeleteAlso have a feeling that if Khushi is going to be missing then RS will also be MIA and Arnav will be jumping to conclusions and perhaps it'll turn out like the chana vendor scene...instead of worry he'll be furious and panicking for his Di and he'll find her buying sarees or something(if no one else is going to oblige ODG isn't just going to sit around in Arnav's clothes!...but that would be a total let down I hope its a nice sensible scene.
Yes yes yes I saw Akash's tiny smile too!! You know it made me feel like Akash knows all of this is such Unnecessarily OTT drama but its okay because everyone will come around in their own time and till then khushiji and bhai can withstand and by his public decree of accept her or else Arnav just sped up the process of acceptance:-)
@ Sunny...I was just thinking yesterday if Manodrama isn't going to continue her jasoosi with night time binoculars then the only ally we have left is bemausam baarish...
noted that on akash..wish he had some more dialogues in the show.
DeleteI want her to go to the temple where they got married. Him finding her. If that time she entered RM on his terms, this time I want her to enter on her terms.
Fine 6 months and it is off, I am done caring or fighting. I assume something big must have led to this face off between them.
Either she put it on herself or Arnav will give it back to her in today's epi or after the fight,when he comes home and realizes she is gone, he finds the payal and kangan and realizes she has gone for good cos she would never have left it otherwise.
Sunny,
DeleteThats why I said, the dust settles. In a storm, so much is happening you only react. But once the storm subsides and the dust settles, you calm down a bit, things around become clearer and you start thinking. It was Dia's title of The Storm and its Aftermath that gave me this idea. Arnav is already getting his wits together. He will start thinking more. But there needs to be another trigger to speed up the process and to give him another view to the happenings.
Gargi,
Oh pls..nahiiiiiiii. LG will find her not RS. Yes let RS be MIA at the same time. Let LG assume the worst and then when he finds her, let him realize how he jumps to conclusions, better yet let Khushi tell him how he always looks at things from only his view and maybe lights will begin to flicker.....
Mami or not, I am all for bemausam baarish :)
Shwetha,
Something big to happen for Khushi to serve him that ultimatum (New Promo) - guessing it will be the visit home and maybe the taunts from people there. Khushi would have had enough. For one person's sake, his mistake, his convoluted need for marriage to her - so many people are suffering and Khushi would have had enough.
I want her to call his bluff. Payal is jiju's wife. What will you tell jiju when you just drop her back home? And yes then let her come back home on her terms, from a position of strength. Then the acceptance of the facade will be from both ends.
Khushi's payal - will wait and watch
Sunny Hi! @stars, well he needed an excuse for her bedding outside and this was the one that came to mind. He is ASR now, so he is being clinical about stars, mom's kangan etc. The emotions part will come later.
DeleteKANGANS - ARNAV - KHUSHI
ReplyDeleteAnjali wanted to give the kangan to Khushi but they land up with Arnav and he ends up having to give them to Khushi. Not willingly but because his Di wants it. It is still about her.
I felt that touch of mami eavesdropping over this scene was good because these bangles are important. If not for that distraction, he would have had to give it to her but under duress and loads of mental conflict. The moment there was a bigger problem at hand - maintaining a facade, his mind was distracted and he gets the task done. And that is all it is for now, a task, a rite of passage.
Besides the way things are now, Khushi can never appreciate the magnitude of emotions Arnav would feel in giving her these kangan. So yes, I was ok with the bangles being passed on as a rite of passage than a symbol of love. Which makes me think if Anjali is going to give Khushi the letter just yet?
To me of the 2, the significance of the bangles increased because of the letter. They made it an emotion else these were just pieces of gold, special but not significant. I think the CVs wanted to show her getting it for the muh dikhaayi and unknowingly earning his mother's blessings.
If tomorrow, Khushi gets the letter and reads it, she will realize the importance of the bangles. She would then again ask Arnav why give her this when they are meant for his wife which he BELIEVES she is not. He keeps calling her his wife, he says it but does not accept it.
Even otherwise, Arnav will need to tell Khsuhi to keep it on always as Di has said so. So for now Khushi will not have a reason to give it back to him. He will have to hear them on Khushi all the time and hear their tinkle. It will constantly remind him of his mother. The last time he said they give him peace. Will they now?
And I wanted to see how he played this if he has to give it to her and he told her the truth. He did not pretend to have become moony eyed.
Though Arnav does not realize, at the shotgun wedding DM blessed that union aur aaj apne haathon se kangan pehnaake he has got his mother to bless this union. However it happened, Arnav put it on her hand - he said I want to give you something - Did he realize it was his mother's love, acceptance and approval for his chosen life partner?
The dust settles! Will things start becoming clearer? Is this the silence before another storm?
SN: I cannot believe I had so much to write from this one episode.
Sandhya,
DeleteI totally agree with you on the kangan issue. I did not have a problem with the scene because given the circumstances, this was the best way to show that the kangans have reached the rightful owner without some really biting remark, which Arnav would have definitely made had he concentrated only on that activity without being distracted by Maami's jaasoosi. I hope the letter is still in the box and Khushi gets to see it at some point. The song of those kangans and their sight is going to disturb Arnie at first but will he be able to bite back that anger or will he ask her to remove them remains to be seen.
I loved the point you made about how his mother also indirectly blessed their union because the kangans were after all meant for her bahu and they reached Khushi safely.
It is sad that no one has yet realised the Khushi still does not have her own wardrobe and is living off charity on day to day basis. Hope this is sorted out soon. If nothing else, Arnav at least should be shown sensitive to this problem now that he has recognised that she is his wife and a R bahu.
Opti.
Absolutely I was even alright if Anjali didn't hand over the kangans and gave khushi the letter only! I really want that letter to reach her. Perhaps when she is keeping away the shirt she stained and ripped and the kangan box she'll spot it, read it and we can have our kangan returning scene...and I think it'll take small things like this to open bitwa's eyes slowly slowly...
DeleteHiya Girls,
ReplyDeleteI'm with Dia today. Yesterday I was feeling down because of the bashing on IPK on the forum. Today I have very similar feelings still ot ready to give up. Tuesday's are usually filler episodes and it is quite unreasonable to expect the CVs to deliver one superb episode after another. Their brains need a break too!!
Nothing really stood out for me today , even Bitwa's standing up for Khushi. It felt very forced and not from the heart.
I have a long list of what did not work for me :
- The way ASR/Arnav pretended to show some love for Khushi was completely heart-breaking. I'd rather take the yelling and shouting any day than this forced love. I could not find a any love in what he was trying to do with her today. Felt really bad for our little girl. She is so clueless.
- The CVs completely ruined the Kangan build-up. They took so many months to build-up the importance of the kangans in Arnav's life but took them a few seconds to let it all come crashing down. It was so heartless of Arnav to give her the Kangans in the way he did. But por Khushi is so niave, she did not even think twice about it. The CVs better fix this someday/somehow.
- The cheap taunts from the Raizada relatives. DIa said it all, will leave it at that.
- The sleeping arrangement, I thought Arnav spent the 2nd night by the poolside. The forum seems to think it was Khushi again. Hoping they address this issue tomorrow.
Anyway, a little disappointed but I'm sure will survive.
Miss NK. Can't say the same about RS :-) Let him be home sick, don't really care although we need him for the story to omove forward.
When will all this be over? Uggh!!
Sorry for venting so much, gals!! Your posts keep me going.
lol sahana, you might have to bear up more happily married couple act. What I am glad is he is matter of fact about it and not taunting, you thought i would be nice to you blah balh,he might say it today who knows?
DeleteI don't think he will say anyhthing about the kangan to her, she will find the letter assuming it is still there and realize how important it is and return it back to him.
You know as much as I want her to do that so that it builds up for a scene later on of him giving them to her properly...right now if she does return them he's going to construe it to mean- I don't love you, I don't want you family heirloom, I want to be with Shyaam and am stuck here with you right now but I won't wear/keep your kangans...:-(
DeleteGargi,
DeleteWhen you put it that way, hmmm.
So how about she sees the letter after he tells her to keep the kangans on because Di has said it. Arnav is not going to enlighten her and give her ideas of him having affection for her by giving this heirloom. She goes to remove them and he says, Di has asked you to keep it on. Or Anjali herself says that.
Maybe the letter comes a bit later.
Yeah I hope so...she should get the letter when it really hits her that he's not such a bad guy just hot headed...and she should remember all the things he did for her, which in his own way showed how much he loved her...dude he bought bangles in the middle of the night for her, got called a waiter, helped her choose a saree he liked in his adorable round about ASR way...I want her to have those fb's when she reads his mom saying 'dher saara pyaar...' right now I doubt she'll be able to appreciate his mothers words anyway as he's doing everything he possibly can to contradict them... so yes agree with you sans let the letter come later...
DeleteI think the reason they couldn't say anything was partly the fact that they had never been in such a situation before, and actually, In a similar situation, la engagement announcement time, somebody picks on nani and she has nothing to say, again, Arnav has to. The other reason being that they themselves haven't even been given a reason, not even a paltry escuse, when they themselves have been thinking it it was more like a voicing of their own suspicions to which they had no answer
ReplyDeleteThe epi actually worked for me cos of the following:
ReplyDeleteI feared the worst, knew he was faking it for an audience probably his di and was
expecting he would crush her on the likes of you wish, don't you,blah blah. THAT DID
NOT HAPPEN. He told her matter of factly.
Tagline - Khushi running away, so all through the facade, I kept imagining his face,
bitwa Tera kya haal hoga when she goes missing.
SARUN, Utkarsha aka Mami
Mami.
Anjali .
Arnav defending Khushi and his marriage, I did not see any lies there, it was something
he wanted to say to everyone since morning, ENOUGH!!!
Wrote this right after the epi, so copy and pasting below as Blogger says kuch zyada hi ho gaya.
******************
*Length alert, have to make up for my absence the past few days*
ReplyDeletePart 1
Anjali asks a sensible Q, how could you forget Ma's kangan. Bitwa is shocked, ( WT, yeh meri di ko kya hua, NO rona, no pooja, no thaali ulta mujhko Daant? )and assures her that he will give it to her.
Khushi, soooooooo cute mock fight with DM...just like she used to fight with Arnav,
sadda haq!!!! Won't talk to you, hmph..
And Khushi actually returns the sarees of anjali daily???? WT WT WT WT
Kanjoos Raizadas, Idiot Arnav!!!! BUY HER SOME CLOTHES PEOPLE!!!
The name is Bond...Manodrama Bond...Current assignment spy on Arnav's bedroom and Solve the Poolside Sleeping Mystery.
Bitwa overhears and gets a warning. (Aaj toh theek hai bitwa...aagay kya karogay?)
So Bitwa goes to set right the situation.
Enters, Khushi is still in his shirt and hides and he is WT?
Goes and confronts her and notices late that she is wearing his shirt.
(Kya arnav bitwa, dimaag kay saath sightiya bhi thodi weak ho gayi hai kya, Biwi dikhai di pehlay, Biwi looking oh so hot in your shirt naaaaaahin?)
Again WT shuru (WT back with a vengeance,lol)
AND Bitwa spots MB - Mills and boons naaaaaaaaahin, Manodrama Bond.
And does his Happily Married Couple Take 1, Scene 1, Action!!!
With the soft, so this is what you are going to wear today( MIG Alert - When I would rather you wear this Tonight...Oh wait a minute, we are still in feeling hot hot, doing not not mood, DAMN).
Khushi looks at him gobsmacked, What happened to him?
I loooooooooved the expressions of Sanaya throughout this scene. And Barun was too
damn good.(Sach bolon, Dil wished, if only this was true..sigh...)
"You don't even know how to wear a shirt" he says with a smile (MIG ALERT - What is the use Bitwa, sometime in future, that shirt would last barely a minute on her...Or are you partial, Will rip her dresses and not your shirt, hmmmmmmm..let us see*wink*)
Takes her hand and says come on and makes her sit and Khushi must be wondering, should i call a doctor for this guy?
He says I have to give you something and puts the first kangan on and notices the torn shirt.
With humongous effort controls his anger, you tore my shirt (MIG ALERT - how could you? wspecially when I was not wearing it, hmph)That scene was howlarious!!!
Okay rest of the scene was cute and mami goes off, he comes back to his khadoos mood and explains Mami was there and so had to act,blah blah, MATTER OF FACTLY!!
WT WT WT WT WT
It is his mom's kangan and he simply slipped it on, no emotion nothing just cos Mami was watching?
(Dude you felt unsure about it, that is why you didn't give it to her the first time when
Anjali asked you to, now just cos your sister insisted and Mami is watching you gave it to
her and no emotion whatsoever?, Say it with me WT WT WT)
SOOOOOOOOOO, We will see that happening eventually maybe tomorrow'w epi. Khushi
will come to the room notice the box and the letter, will feel emotional, bitwa will shoot
his mouth off or hopefully will wonder why is she so emotional about my mom.
And If khushi can remove it can we have our shiddat plz, give it to the person you love
in future?
SECOND...WT WT WT WT WT
Arnav spoke so softly and Mami could hear that?
Arnav's explanation that she spent the night counting stars, so I guess if someone asks
her that will be the explanation that both will give?
And BITWAAAAA...Tanik hamain yeh batao, jo Mami din may binocular use kar sakti hai
woh Raat may kyon naaaaaaaaahin karegi? DUHHHHHHH
Unless, that is what the next scene will be, Khushi sleeping outside, Mami on Nightwatch, Bitwa noticing her and snuggling up beside her pretending to be watching the stars, might actually end up having a convo about the stars, Mami continues, both doze off holding each other....Hayeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
DBG!!! don't put such cute scenes in our heads! IPK will soon stop living up to our expectations if you come up with such scenes!! But ok pls pls let that happen! or at least bemausam baarish and another Arhi rain scene...seconding your Hayeeeeee!
DeleteWhat is DBG? You know what, I want the rain to happen when he finds her and gives her a biiiiiiiiiiiiiig hug, thank god I found you type hug. Only thing Delhi may abhi baarish nahi hoti, it is okay we will adjust and put it down to global warming.
DeleteDandebaaz Genie;-) LOL
DeleteHayeee, I so want that last one ... snuggling up together under the stars and falling asleep ... and then maybe one of our 'niharofying' vala shiddats can come true also!
DeleteRain, snow, hail ... hum sab adjust kar lenge yaar! Yeh dono kuch karen to sahi!
ROFL ROFL ROFL
DeleteHayeeee Shwetha - sach main itna cute scene hoga woh but shaayad aisa ho aakhir bitwa ne promise kiys ki aaj raat hum taare ginenge...Hayeeee
Dua hamaari bhi hai ki jab woh dhoondne par mile - toh LG use kaske hug kare.
Aranv Khushi scene was very Hayeeee.
Something struck me - if Khushi gets the letter and read sit it says "pyar (arnav ka) soodh sameth lautaana. But Arnav has told Khushi he hates her". Will she tell him "I will tolerate your anger, but how do I return with interest the love when you hate me" - Maybe I dont should not have these bangles as I cannot fulfill your mother's promise...
My guess is even if she reads the letter, she will keep quiet about it for the reason you mentioned and will tell him when she leaves him that this belonged to your mother and she wanted you to give it to the person you love and not hate. So I am returning this to you SO YOU can give the bangles to the person you love.
DeletePART 2:)
ReplyDeleteSo the poolside sleeping arrangement will continue ? YUCKKKKKKKK, Mami ab aapka hi sahara hai,lol.
So Muhdikhai begins, Mami in top form loved her!!!!
The nagging relatives come open their mouth and are spectacularly shut up by bitwa.
And finally that nasty aunty comes and looks at both the bahus, Mami stands up and
gives a look that says khabardar kuch ulta kaha toh hamaray bahu kay baaray main. Loved Mami again here.Nasty Aunty is pleased with the bahus and they all go off.
Everyone leaves, Khushi has received not a single present,expected sort of.
(Bitwa, Hope you noticed it and the reason you went out is to do shopping for her and have all the stuff home delivered).
Mami at once pouncing on Khushi starting with the Presents, surprisingly Nani also joining in and Anjali pointing out sensibly, well you have to blame both and then Bitwa enters...Tells them off...She is my wife, I will not tolerate anyone disrespecting her or any other member of my family.Bitwa behaving lika achcha bitwa, Kal ki kaun jaanay????
Confession - Sorry about so many MIG, Blame it on this show, Ever since Friday All Arhi scenes are going through the MIG Filter and coming to me and believe me When I used to be this achchi bachchi, who was as good as Anjali in this department.
Shiddats:
Shiddats:
Khushi is going to storm off...good.
Khushi to be treated with respect....modified...tick
Khushi to return the kangan...hopefully
Khushi and arnav's night out by the stars...hopefully.
Girls there's a new promo out!! I missed it but my mum called me up to tell me she saw a new promo!!...its not on you tube yet either...
ReplyDeleteIt is the blackmailing promo. She tells him you hve to tell your family in 2 hours why you married me or I will leave home. He says if you don't come home in 2 hours, I will drop payal home and leaves and khushi is worried. Got this from IF, not seen the promo yet.
DeleteI saw it :))) Just got home after a morning out - sitting through some random show on mute and I caught it. Khushi in yellow sari, Arnav in usual suit ... they seem to be at the temple???!!! Definitely outside somewhere - it's an outdoor location. One more shiddat???
DeleteDia,
DeleteI think it will happen when he drops her off at GH. Why else the 2 hour deadline. By the time we are done here, you better have spilled.
And makes sense Arnav says, if you do not return in that time, I will just leave behind (chod can be to leave or left behind na?) Payal too.
Whatever happens I hope they show genuine worry in Arnav's face...it wont be like his ambulance moment but still he should get a little worked up ya...
Deletehey all,
ReplyDeletewhat is this tagline you all keep referring to? where is it stated?
Mona the tagline is will arnav be able to search and find Khushi and bring her home.
Deleteokay some more timepass...!!
ReplyDeleteTen reasons you know you’re way too big a fan of IPKKND...
1.You get seriously angry with ASR when he’s tells Khushi ‘mujhe tumse koi farak nahin padta’ and you find yourself talking to your television set- ‘dammit par tumhe itna farak pad raha hai!.’
2.You refer to Arnav and Khushi in real life conversations as though they are part of your life. For e.g.
Friend: Oh I saw a really pretty suit at XYZ designer, would look great on you for your brothers roka.
You: We should check it out, oh I really liked Khushi’s pink suit she wore to the Mehndi, wonder where she got that...hmm should find out...
Friend: Huh what? Who’s Khushi? Who’s mehndi function did you go for?
3.You wonder when Khushi and Arnav’s birthdays are because - hey! You’re a good person and remember the birthdays of important people in your life.
4.You arbitrarily add the suffix ‘wa’ to a word. ‘hospital-wa’, ‘mall-wa’, ‘restaurant-wa’, ‘husband-wa’
5.You add Khushi and Arnav’s happiness(shiddat scenes) on your list of things you pray for...(This one is soooo us girls)
6.When you answer the phone and say hello? You have to catch yourself from repeating mami’s catchphrase ‘Hello! Hi Bye bye!’
7.You seriously consider skipping a 3 hour SRK movie at 8:30 p.m. on a Friday night. After all you’ll miss the 8 o’clock show and half past 11 show...damn travel time...oh well I’ll catch the movie some other time.
8.You get annoyed with Khushi and Arnav when they misunderstand each other and feel an intrinsic need to play match maker. Sit them down and have a conversation and sort out their problems...nevermind your own messy/non-existent personal life/social life...
9.You write lists like this....:-) or/and... you comment on lists like this....;-)
10.You’re smiling to yourself reading this list and nodding...you start typing and then ‘backspace’ your comment because after all you’re not an obsessive crazy fan ;-)
(Disclaimer: written purely for fun, of course I’ve never actually experienced any of these symptons;-):-p)
10 - Me smiling to myself reading this list and nodding ... and laughing out loud at some of the points :)))
DeleteConfession time - how many apply ...
1 - yes
2- yes - I want that pink suit of Khushi's ... anyone know where she got it?
3, 4, 5 - yes
6 - you actually SAY hello hi bye bye ... and feel ridiculously pleased when your friends recognise the phrase, which means they watch the serial too, and you can discuss the latest episode with them!
7 - OMG - you too?! Not just movie plans - travel plans - travelling to India this week, checking when does my flight get in, will I reach home in time to catch the repeat episode?
No, of course you haven't, Gargi ... neither have any of us! This was just an academic discussion :)
Hahaha...crazy people sure do love company...:-p
Deleteand add to this - literally sneaking time during office hours to quickly read, laugh and nod heads at such lists!! :D
Deletecoz don't have the time to write another post - please tell me where did you guys read the tagline - i mean is it a poster/an add????
Gargs,
DeleteBirds of a feather... :D:D:D
Btw the play of words with time was cool. I likey!
1,3,4, 5, 7,9,10, count me in.
DeleteI will be out of town last week of march already praying that I dont miss much, lol.
And Balwant kaur song too, add that,lol
You know you have it bad when.....
Delete1. You go the Puja in your house, light the lamp and look at the Devi pictures, haath jodo and say, "Devi maiyya, raksha karna !"
2. You ask yourself, as you go about your everyday life, "WWKD?" which stands for "What would Khushi do?"
And I agree with all the rest said above...I have it really bad !
Agree with u Dia the episode was high on drama and low on emotions, but that was need. For the 2 main highlights were low emotions during Arhi scenes. Arnav giving his maa's kangans without any emotions just to pacify the MB, because i want Khushi to find how important is this to him may be more thru the letter.
ReplyDeleteNow coming to "She is my wife, respect her " was something which i want to see again from ASR and this time with the Gupta family. So may be the tagline and promo may be leading to this.
If they are going on with all rasams, then phug phere will be done. Hence the warning of 2 hours. that i will not be back if you don’t give the reasons, hoping desperately that may be her family forgives her and accepts her or maybe she could have an opportunity to give the reason as to why she accepted marriage (now that Payal's marriage is done, and for a change using her dimaag that ASR can’t use Payal anymore).
Now to worse of her luck the Gupta's don’t accept and ask her to leave.
here ODB returns back to bring is so called wifey on instance of his pari DI and finds that his wife left immediately after him. And if they have to keep the hate track... his mind goes to worse --- her running way with his KJ.
Shiddats
ODB standing up for her at Gupta house.
of course the starry night out.
And most important Aranva's reaction similar to the accident one after he finds her
Swarglok ki jodiyaan hain Gargi. Obviously will be made for each other.
DeleteSn: You are on a roll today BOTB :)
10 reasons, jodis, hmm looks like MB has had a positive effect on you too ;)
Nice thoughts Aarthi.
DeleteGargi,
the above comment was for you. Blogger did something when I hit publish and moved it to here.
Hehehe yep Mami's bak bak mood seeped through the screen last night...;-)
DeleteRekha when he comes home to pick her up and finds her gone, he will blast away the Guptas for sure.
DeleteHey Dia and gang......you guys rock....and okayish episode but still 52 comments.......IPK have turned us into gone case, hasnt it ?
ReplyDeletedidnt read the comments as yet......everyday i come here, and m so engrossed in reading the comments that i forget to write my own...hehehe......but you guys always say everything that i have to say, so i enjoy reading all the comments....
was an okayish episode for me too.....but i was laughing at ASR pretending to be romantic......
Maa's kangan passing on was totally robotic....BTW is Mami the new friend for Khushi, disguised as an foe.....she did spot the poolside secret after khushi-DM convo and ASR will have to behave with Khushi as long as Mami is spying....though khushi can't confide in her.....
Arnie Babua is so mean........he asked her to clean up after herself every morning.....didnt ask her to sleep inside.......well he doesnt know mami......i guess she will start spying in the night time as well (she wasnt convinced with his sweet talks) and he will be forced to request her to sleep inside.....
I was glad to see the clumsy khushi....i wish she stays that way.....
I guess there won't be any melodrama to prove khushi's innocence....its only through this clumsy and virtuous behaviour that Arnie boy will realize that maybe shyam was lying.......and then when he starts softening up and they starts accepting each other in their lives....maybe even about to confess......and boom....shyam tells khushi the reason Arnie married her......and she will be hurt cause he didnt trust her......he will try to prove that he cares, but she wont trust him....and then 6 months over....and he realizes that he is loosing her......so he begs her to stay, if not for him then for Anjali as she leaving will hurt Anji a lot.....she feels sad that he is asking for anji and not himself, but agrees.......and he starts wooing her again.....this time properly....
and the moment she starts falling for him again......shyam plays his trick and makes anji believe that khushi is seducing shyam.......and anji asks arnie to choose between her and khushi....
didnt think bt what will happen after that .....gosh, i have a project to finish and can't get IPK out of my head.......somebody help..........
Geetu: Mami is the cupid at the very least she will ensure khushi sleeps inside:)
DeleteLadeeze log, please give me a hand here ... the new promo, and this time it's audible! I hope:)
ReplyDeleteI missed the first few seconds of it ... I sat through Pratigya to record this, so you all had better be suitably impressed. :D

I saw it! I saw it!! thanks!...Just one question...ODB will tell Akash - the mute garden gnome - sorry I'm using 7 day exchange policy and returning your wife and he'll just keep smiling away and say -Jo bhi aap thik samjhe bhai!! WT??
DeleteDia, yeah I saw ur promo and bow to this dedication!! nice work!!
DeleteOn this promo, i have one theory...the nafrat_mohabbat track promo No 4/5 that has been spoken about so often was shot right at the start and that time the PH/CV would have shot with the office track scenario.
With the progress of the story, this track has become redundant ( for whatever reasons though the basis remains) so I guess it was time to bring it to speed and what better than the Teri meri sequence to bring that to culmination...it really summarises the ARHI story; mushkil hain ki do lafzon be na bhaya ho!!
BTW, this blackmail promo...if there is no explicable twist, it would be so silly for Khushi to give in and wouldn't it be so anti-hero for Arnav to use this tactic again? What are the CVs thinking?……aaarghh
From the spoiler pics, Khushi is sitting at the poolside dolefully with Laxmi - is this before or after the blackmail? If it's after, then what is the twist if she tamely agrees to come back???
DeleteTRP's have fallen sharply - looks like the TRP audience is also not happy with the Gopification of Khushi and the dimwitization of Arnav ... so hope this misunderstanding won't be dragged too much and they get to the next phase of Arnav or Khushi finding out the truth soon.
This would be after the blackmail only, no sense to have this shot before the pag-phera ( btwit is a "Pug" phera, acco to me, considering the way Khushi is running behind the gupta ladies) so as u say, it must after she comes back home
DeleteHere is where we need that solid reason for her to come back..Gopification not acceptable, dimwitization, we are already living with!!
So, as i said, in my last comment, she has to come back with her head held high, even if her mental state is in disarray. IT has be a favor she does for Arnav...(don't ask me why) and he has to feel like a jerk...
In the SBB vid, Sanaya says Buaji took only Payal home. Khushi seems to have drummed up some courage and come back to her maayka on her own.
DeleteSo the pool pics could be from before her going to GH. She is feeling upset at being left behind.
Where are the spoiler pics?? and Dia how do you know TRP is low?...oh no..:-( please don't try crowd pleasing gimmicks..they'll come back on their own...
DeleteGargi, TRP's on IF - at 4.0 - it's slipped from 3 to 4 so still in the top 5, but you know, I am glad that the excessive rona dhona has not worked - they overdid it IMO, and now are overdoing the victimization of Khushi ...
DeleteSpoiler pics also somewhere on IF - the forum moves so fast, it's impossible to find anything there! I saw Opti's symbolism post, managed to LIKE it and now can't find it again!

I found very cute the way Buaji (Abhaji) was holding Sanaya as she was grumbling that nobody loves me and Buaji brought Payaliya home and left me behind, so I came on my own ... Abhaji hugged her as though to say, don't worry, I still love you! Damn cute! And Payal was giggling at that one!
Yep, we were right ... so Khushi gets left behind, she comes home anyway, gets sunaoed by Garima and Buaji, and then calls Arnav to pick her up ... *SHIDDAT Alert!* from the TEMPLE!!!
And that's where the blackmail takes place ... but now no clue what will happen after that ... there has to be a twist now ... she can't just quietly come home, that will be the mother of all anti-climaxes!!!
Well the new promo had nothing right for the trps to increase. yes they showed SR, but SR promo should have bitwa and bitiya doing ahem ahem feeling hot hot with a hot song and not angry garam relatives. So ppl knew kuch nahin honay wala.It is still at 4, that is good and is beating BV..so no need to panic.
DeleteFirst they should clear Arnav's MU and hten Khushi can get angry and arhi can work together in beating shyam while Arnav goes in biwi ko manao mode.
Yep, they should go logically that way, clear his misunderstanding, or at least, create some doubts in his mind, so that even if he doesn't tell her what he was thinking about her, they enter some agreement to either protect Anjali or to expose Shyam in such a way that Anjali doesn't die of shock ... I think Anjali is made of sterner stuff, after all she has dealt with that bipolar brother of hers for years ... but anyway ... ;)
DeleteAnd Arnav plans to use the time to figure out exactly where Khushi stands in all this ... let him figure it out slowly ... after all, his dimaag has been on prolonged vacation ... might take time to start ...
That way it just postpones his regret track a little bit while DB starts using his brain, gets them working together and faking the lovey dovey bit but with less hatred ... more chances of them getting carried away if they're doing it as an act together ... *MIG alert* :)))
I WANT THEM TO GET CARRIED AWAY!!!
Deleteoh no the Pug Pheras to be more drama - hope the CV can hold the story and not let it become a reguler ekta play :(
DeleteRM mein jodiyan bilkul sahi bani hui hai...
ReplyDeleteNani and laxmi...laxmi is the only one who listens to Nani I think..
Mami - Bond-wa and Mamu - take mami light-wa..'I do!'
RS aur RB...both in dire need of therapy, both couple and individual sessions please!
The newly wed Garden gnomes (all show no voices) Akash and Payal...human hangers for new clothes...(stop wasting money on their wardrobe!!) ...
Sanaka Devi and her even more sanaka hua pati...The martyr King and Queen of day time tv...our very own Mr and Mrs. Arnav Singh Raizada...
Gargi ... RB kya hai????
DeleteRB is Reptilwa Ki Biwi (methinks??)
DeleteCouple sessions _ ek pe ek pheeree!! wah kya baat hain!!
I am truly gone bonkers!! I think in some time we will all be going for therapy if ARHI don't get it fast!!
Uff, I ditto you ... in dire need of therapy if these two don't get their act together!
DeleteHey you guys, NEW promo link blackmailing one http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=119773258150584
ReplyDeleteGirls..
DeleteMy menthos filmy moment after this new promo..(blackmail one)
Bitwa goes to temple, both issue ultimatum...Khushi being khushi calls Arnav's bluff by dissappearing for a few hours, arnav goes in search of her, finds her, they fight blah blah....Khushi realises that Arnav has not sent Payal back home and has that massive change of heart(her wax ka dil melts) and she agrees to come back to honour her 6 month agreement unconditionally...Relationship mein stalemate but story mein progress
Theory mein bahut holes hain, u can please punch some
more..kyunki khali dimaag shaitan ka ghar...
NEW PROMO: My bakwas prediction
ReplyDeleteIt is pag pheray, Khushi decides to go obviously and probably not invited, she I think goes with Payal and before going tells him that she is going and will be back in 2 hours and by that time he should tell the family the truth.
Bitwa goes you wish, you come back in 2 hours or I will send Payal home.
Bitiya goes home , more taunts, the Guptas ask her to leave, she pretends or maybe really calls Arnav and tells him meet me at the mandir, I am leaving. Khushi seems to have finally had it.
Assuming Bitwa did not get the msg, he comes with Akash and realizes Khushi has already left and is furious with Guptas and goes searching for her.
Hopefully finds her in the Mandir they got married and by now Khushi is fed up and tells him 6 months and I will leave or something. Tubelight starts flickering for Bitwa.
I like this one :))) ... let her just pretend to call him and leave the Guptas ... let him go frantic hunting for her, and finally find her in the temple ... ok, Guptas tell him she said temple, but he can do the rounds of half a dozen temples, can't he ... getting more and more panicked and wondering if she was telling the truth or has he driven her too far ... *SHIDDAT alert* ... and then he finds her and blasts her again, but bitiya is in no mood for his crap, and issues her ultimatum ...
DeleteAnd then they finally come to some understanding where DB's bujhi hui batti starts flickering finally, so he decides to ferret out the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth ... makes some excuse to her, she agrees for 6 months and then baby, I'm out of here ...
So he starts observing her with an open mind ... aage let's see! My bakwas prediction extends only this far ...
Dia / Gargi / Shwetha,
DeleteAaj toh you guys are on fire. Comment pe comment. I also wanna comment....
Shwetha, this prediction looks possible yaar. But yes Dia, let him break his head figuring out which mandir. Actually best will be she pretends to call him and he lands up at GH and realizes she is gone. Pretend call will also help establish to family that all is well b/w Khushi and Arnav. Maybe thats why she says come to temple and not home. Cos she is not sure if he will come. Meanwhile let Payal have gone home to RM.
Or he comes to temple and ODG is missing. ????!!!
Ab yeh hurt kahaan se aa gaya on the way home?
contradicted myself - pretend call = happy couple then when he lands home - what will G's think or anyways dimaag ki batti is fuse so they will not bother kya?
DeleteI dont think he will come in when he drops her, in the video we see her entering alone. He might go there to pick her up, cos bitwa knows she is perfectly capable of carrying her threat of not coming home.
DeleteHe goes home, Guptas are shocked, khushi has already left, didnt she call you and tell you she will meet you at mandir, Bitwa worried and furious as to how she could have left so early, starts going mandir to mandir.
Dia, Shwetha...among the mindboggling options, this seems most reasonable...atleast they are on some equal footing when they start this journey of truth..irrespective of who gets there first...Arnav has to tadpofy...
ReplyDeleteLet Khushi have her respect...like she comes back saying"I am doing this for six-months and not a day more" Arnav is smug but slowly will realise that the six month is a damocles sword hanging on his head...He will want to stop her and she will not wait
new spoiler article:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=2809303
Bitwa actually drops her home and she gets hurt and what will he do now?
Dia, I want him to go and search for her in couple of DM temples before he finds her underlining that once again DM is the one who brings them together.
Shwetha, while i hope what u say is true...the article also says that this time is different when khushi gets hurt..meanie Arnav will just stare, have a few Fbs and do nothing....phir kya fayda..
ReplyDeleteDM business is gud but Arnav is a ghoda who has been taken to the pond but pray who will teach him to drink?Sakshat DM ko prakat hona padega is buddhe ko samjhane....
*evil alert*
DeleteI want him to suffer with guilt...Guilt of putting her through this, taking away her family, his own family's love, his own love and not able to do a damn thing when she is hurt and khud hurting million times over.
I just had a mentos moment ;) What if during the next ArHi confrontation, Khushi touches on his playacting with Mami watching and tells him - you're lucky she didn't come back, if she had seen the entire scene, she would have got the true picture, she only saw half the picture and drew all the wrong conclusions ...
ReplyDeleteAnd DB's tubelight flickers ... could he have done the same thing?
I am desperate for the guy's brain to get back to work!
WHOA!!!
DeleteMajor Mentos Moment Dia! If this happens, how cool will it be. It sure might get DB's brain ticking
DIA....Wish she says that, *shiddat alert*
Deletewhy is she crying though with laxmi? before or after pag phere, before or after he brings her back?
Dia, I bow to thee!!
DeleteNice touch and if it were really done, I think it will be great Eureka moment...normally serials show twists that even a 5 year old can predict
Apart from giving us the satisfaction that Khushi stumped Arnav in the scene, it will pave the way for jalloing the bhujji batti.... muaaaah!! two birds with one stone...i'm loving it!
Shwetha,
DeleteJaanne ke liye dekhiye IPKKND har rat 8 baje, Mon to Fri sirf Star Plus par..
:D :D :D
Sandy, thanks yaar totally forgot about 8 pm, wah wah, rofl.
Deleteokay just logged on...too much work..total explosion of comments-me LOVING it...so many replies and ROFL's...but as sandy said 8p.m...so meet you'll after;-)
DeleteI am so disappointed in Arnav. His meanness is growing by leaps and bounds. I can't even enjoy earlier episodes after watching current story-line. The earlier cute scenes now all seem to be so meaningless!
ReplyDeletehopefully, the show doesn't drag on this current theme for too long. I want the fun part to be back.
29th Feb - that's it - i'm done!
ReplyDeleteDia et all
Was waiting for your post - but need to sleep so here is my take on this - really have had it with the CVs - feel they have killed the serial - no growth except Payal talking to Khushi - (so i guess they are moving one person at a time!!) this track is really getting to me - the only thing going - is you guys - so have decided to stay away till you guys say - now we are talking!!
thank for for small mercies though - ASR (yes ASR through and through, not ODB) in a better grey suit!
Awww, Mona, don't do that ... I actually felt today was better than yesterday ... will update details of why tomorrow asap.
