11/5 - Epi 250 ... Heartache ... heartbreak ... edtd

Friday 11th May

I remember one episode earlier during the La track which left me feeling unutterably sad ... just very, very sad, as though someone close to me was undergoing everything I saw on screen. Today it happened again. Khushi's helplessness as she waited determinedly the whole day for Arnav ... Bitwa, you're so gonna kick yourself if ever you realize why she was waiting for you ... Shyam's evilness fully exposed ... as he pushes Khushi again and again for that elusive signature ...
And the saddest part ... Khushi removes all signs of herself from the room ... and Arnav can't stand it ... AND she decides to sleep outside ... and he can't stand that either ... Bitwa, then why didn't you talk to her in office? Itna shor machaya ki why didn't you tell me, then when she tries to tell you something, you make it so tough for her ...  
And why couldn't she tell him later in their room ... unless by that time she had convinced herself that Shyam was right and this was the only way ... please, Khushi, no ... show those brains you showed yesterday and I was so proud of ...

I so hope there is a twist in all this, Khushi does tell Arnav the truth about the file, and he decides to call Shyam on it, so he agrees to sign ... and then does the disappearing act himself ...

One more little hint of the past ... Arnav's trip to London, Anjali saying you don't need to do this, he says I do it every year ... the envelope she gives him ...

And more P-MLP ...

Sanaya in emotional scenes is still unbeatable ... she makes you feel her sadness and pain ... and Barun complements her so well ... makes it worse ...
BS, you're officially an idiot ... leaving this co-star for that upstart wannabe x(  ... you'd better come back soon, else I will officially crown you Idiot of the Small Screen at the next telly awards!

*edited*
A quick edit, as on re-watch, the episode was full of Reptilewa ... the two Arshi scenes were so sad, though that they were all I could remember at the end of the episode. These two actors are just amazing ... no wonder no other parallel tracks work in IPK, no one else stands a chance of making any impact whatsoever once BS/SI get going ... 

So episode starts with yesterdays scene, Shyam's face exposed to Khushi in all it's true ugliness ... so he also knew what she would do. And warns her - don't cooperate if you like, but don't get in my way either. Otherwise he will tell Arnav a pack of lies ... and Arnav will believe him.

So Khushi still decides to wait for Arnav ... SN, the office staff is much more appropriately dressed than during La's time.
And she waits, and waits ... the girl who had no hesitation in barging into meetings, into his office, now waits patiently outside the whole day, desperate for one hearing ... still managing a sweet half-smile for the guy who brings her water ... and looking up hopefully, despairingly, pleadingly when he finally gives way and looks directly at her ...
Bitwa, you're doing it again ... you never gave her a hearing the first time around, and you're repeating your mistake again ... the first time you judged and condemned her without even a trial, here, you heard her defense and then ignored it completely, without even sifting through the evidence, or doing any investigation. And no amount of sad backward looks and hidden longing glances can mitigate that fact. That RTRW just added more and more miles to it.
And a few hundred more when he drove away without waiting to hear what she had to say ... umm, Bitwa, do you remember that yesterday, you asked her WHY she didn't tell you anything about Shyam? why she kept quiet? You just got part of your answer ...

And Shyam is waiting patiently for Khushi ... again the smart villain, made sure to hang around and keep track of what happens between them ... am sure if she had managed to speak to Arnav, he would have barged in instantly and started on his lies ... ODB really is guilty of pushing Khushi towards Shyam each and every single time!!!
So Shyam makes full use of the opportunity ... an already dispirited Khushi is really at her wits' end what she should do ... she has to convince him somehow, she can't bear his mistrust ... and the only route she has is ... Shyam. The only other person who knows the truth ...
So she takes the file ...
She wants to read the papers first though ... Shyam agrees instantly ... a first for a SP bahu? So he has obviously doctored the papers, or thinks she won't understand them well enough.

(Some Mami P-MLP crap ... Mami knows Payal is not a bhoot now, Payal finds Bubbly's discarded bandage and tries to put it back - yuck, hygiene, Payal!)

Back at RM - did she read them? Shyam in a hurry ... she sends him packing ... not before he threatens her again ... Khushi, really, you'd better know he's up to no good at all now ... don't take those signatures!!!

Arnav can't sit in his own room and work now ... too many memories ...
Anjali gives him an envelope, and asks if it's necessary to do all this, because we're all here, aren't we ... but he says he does this every year ... she nods understandingly ...
Shades of the past?

Finally goes back to his room ... only to be hit by ... absence of wind chimes, absence of stars ... even the Salman Khan poster is missing ... his cupboard is back to its drab browns and blacks ... all the light and color gone from his room ... as she slowly withdraws herself from his life ... because she doesn't have the right any more to be here ... she never did ...
Sign of things to come, Bitwa ... even when she's still here, you're already missing her things ... what will you do when she herself goes missing?

He won't be able to handle it, that's for sure .. he already can't ... how dare she remove anything, how dare she make changes without his permission?!
That's what she did ... she's trying to rectify her mistake now ...
And he doesn't know what to reply to that one ... but he does know he doesn't like her this way ... he doesn't like her 'bechari' avatar any more than he likes her 'swami' one or her irritating one ... even less, in fact much less ...
And when she goes to sleep outside, that's the last straw ... he will not allow that!!! So back to status quo ... she on bed, he on recliner ...

Bitwa, the night you married her, you threw her out yourself, you couldn't bear to be in the same room as her - remember? So what has changed? Has she? Or have you? Have those doubts started creeping in that she can't be what you've been thinking she is? That you could actually have been mistaken? And that for once in your life, you want to be mistaken? You desperately want to have made a mistake on this one ... you want her to be telling the truth, you want to believe the penitence, the despair, the sadness in her eyes ...
And as Khushi sleeps, her eyes go to the file again ... is that the only way to prove her innocence?

Fingers crossed ... c's, please don't go the cliched way on this ... one googly desperately wanted here ... and the idiot cv's didn't even show us the real precap x( - they showed the promo shot instead, so we have no way of knowing whether that softened tone of Arnav is going to really be there or not ... makes all the difference as to what Khushi does with that damn file!

  1. missed after the Arnav asks her to sleep on the bed..

    Shwets we did get our shiddat, but little twisted. Now what is with K accepting the deal, now with the promo it looks like she did get it signed. *head desk*

    1. Aaru wanna bet, when he goes missing she is going to sleep on his recliner and break down holding his shirt?

      I am dreading that*Advanced may head desk*

    2. I bet she would shwets and that's exactly I felt and hence i said twisted.

      what are you dreading shwets ?? she getting sign from bitwa or she breaking down. me dreading both, because when San is emotional I cant stop myself there. And know this would be much more intense then the one she did MJHT. will try to get the link

      Delete
    3. yeah she is.....and she will tell Anji to not worry he will come back soon, safe and sound.....and anji is gonna tell bitwa after he returns, how khushi consoled her and gave her the courage.....

    4. Aaru, when samrat gives her the yellow rose na, khabardaar mujhay link diya toh, it is still fresh in my memory.

    5. Aaru:

      1.If the googly is supposed to be there, she will tell him what the papers are and Shyam wants her to get signatures on it and in return he will tell the truth to Arnav.

      2. Sceneario 2 he is putting back all her stuff and finds the file and feels like a fool again, she wakes up sees everything instant happiness and horror when she realizes he is holding the file. Confrontation, she tells the truth and he says fine, tell Shyam you have the signatures and ask him to come to airport and we will talk.

      Ofcourse Shyam will not risk it:( and then the kidnapping happens maybe?

      Geetu: I would rather Anjali tells her how heartbroken Khushi was and how she barely survived yada yada..

    6. That one of MJHT scene is best, but mine is one when she breaks down in washroom where Nupur Finds Out That Gunjan Loves Samrat- Mera Pyar Adhura rahai gaya di - --

    7. Shweths, tere munh mein ghee shakkar and chocolates and pastries ... am sending up a big shiddat for this one - either one of those two googlies please ...
      AND that could be added to Arnav deciding to fake his own kidnap to expose Shyam once and for all ... after he signs the new will ...
      And I think Shyam will insist to Khushi that he will see the signature first then he will come to the airport to tell Arnav ... and of course, he won't come. Just hope Arnav and Khushi are in this together, whichever way they do it ... SHIDDAT!!!!

      Delete
    8. Aaru: Haan, that was good, The flower scene was:(.

      Which is why I was shocked when I saw Sanaya do the suiciiiiiiiide post janmashtami and I was, THIS IS SANAYA*SHOCKED*

      And Arnav looked so damn hot when he was watching her, I was wow this guy is good and do they have chemistry or what.

      And I also felt deep sympathy for the handicapped guy who was annoyingly sweet but obviously had no chance against arrogant hotwa....

      Shyam had a fracture remember in those days then a week later I found out who shyam really was.

      Go ahead, Laugh!!!

      Dia: Shiddat to your scenario, Bitwa enters changes his mind or something so he can watch shyam unobtrusively. Are we expecting too much? Waisay why the annual trip to London, any guesses?

    9. Shwetha : ur wish makes more sense to increase bitwa's confusion

  2. When she wakes up tomorrow, everything would have been replaced as it is. It is their room after all.

    *gloatwa vey*

    (Dunno if anyone remembers though,lol). I had mentioned it in passing that when she finds out the reason, she will change the room back to his and Bitwa would be furious and put all her stuff back later when she is not around.

    I still don't understand how Shyam got access to ASR's office and none of his staff mentioned that Shyam was there to meet him.

    If I were ASR I would have fired that receptionist, You don't ignore the Boss's wife's request to see her hubby and do not pass on the message.

    Anyway LOVED that she realizes he is in a meeting and waits outside. Bitwa Danda, you know she was waiting for you should have asked her to leave the very least instead of ignoring her, Dandaaaaaa.

    Ah finally the Villainwa got promoted from weekly to daily. Good. Liked Abhaas today.

    Sarun were awesome in the room scene though BD couldn't be ignored.

    Bitwa goes every year to London, Har saal karta hoon and Anjali gives him some papers? What issh the matter yahan?

    Bitwa is no longer working in his room, is working everywhere but their room, Memories haunting you bitwa, Good.

    And both slept off without changing, whatever happened to his Ts & her adoring ghar ka suits?

    Mami, Nani, Bubbly, Payal: Payal think Payal, you stood up and blasted off ASR, Yeh toh bubbly hai and tumhara pati Akash hai yaar, Socho aur jawab do. Or take tips from your sis, who invariably locks or blocks Bitwa whenever she wants him to hear her out. Seekho ussay.

    It is soo nice to things are thawing....again.

    Awwwwwwwww, episode.

    1. loved all your points Shwetha........loved the way she removed everything and her dialogue was too good,'when he hates her so much, being surrounded by her things must be hurting him so much'

      loved his expression at that dialogue....such a small thing but she realized.....loved his possessiveness on her things, he is missing it already when she is around, what will he do when she seriously leaves....

      i so hope that he sees the file tomorrow, read it and blast her (had read some spoilers) and she will tell him the whole truth that shyam had given the file etc etc.....and he plays along....

      Delete
    2. Yes!!!!!!!! Shwets I remember, that we were discussing about the sleeping arrangements after K making it 50-50.

      Yes villainwa has been promoted to daily and next week to almost the whole episode..
      Now what is it bitwa going to london ? and doing something every year??

      Now has she read the papers? I think so no- that's what she said to RRR-
      Pls let there be a catch there pls Bitwa should have left some paper's unsigned. that's I can hope or would have atleast read the papers.
      @Geetu I wish so too .. that he plays along

      Delete
    3. Geetu, I was awwwwwwwww, when she said that, she is throwing his own words back at him, now remember how he said he hates the fact that he will be sharing his room with her. Ooh it hurt him *Evil Smil*

      What spoilers?

      Aaru: I could understand her hesitancy in getting him to sign the papers, why the hesitancy in reading the damn papers*head desk*

      Delete
    4. Echo Shwetha ... what spoilers, Geetu?

      And even I didn't understand, why the hesitancy to read the papers herself ... this means she does know how to read English na?

      Delete
    5. Dia she had no hesitancy reading his diary, toh yeh to papers hai, woh bhi shyam kay *head desk*

      Delete
    6. Dia / shwets still don't understand why she isn't reading the file, its not that she can't read a word WILL At the top *head desk* when she can type whole dictated letter at the start of show and more recently his diary which again was in English. its may be getting caught reading it ??? but still -

      Delete
    7. i am also not too sure about her english abilities..can she cant she???

      Delete
    8. Dia/Shwets : the article like spoilers which said snake will kidnap bitwa, mentioned that bitwa will see the will in her hand and another MU then his locker key will fall from snakes wallet and bitwa realizes his mistake......that time i thought it must be the locker wala will....abhi realized ke yahi will hoga bitiya ke haath me.....

      that spoiler also said that NK will return by the end of may and will be a good friend to Khushi and bitwa will again get jealous seeing bitiya-nk bonding.....

      what i didn't like in that spoiler was that Nk will fall hopelessly in love with khushi.....which is so absurd given that he being a positive character and she being his bhabhi at the moment.....

      but these spoilers were not from mishti....

      Delete
    9. THIS PH leaks out random tracks to guess the reaction of audience read IF and decides what to do. NK falling for Khushi, creepy and with Arnav around lol, he will be packing bags for Kidney soon.

      Let us see re, I am excited how it goes for tomorrow.

      Anita: Ofcourse she can, she and the CVs have the Ghajini effect regarding her English from time to time.

  3. and why on earth did she not explain things to him nor tell him about Shyam and the papers when they were alone in the bedroom?

    2. shwets am too confused with todays episode, seemed like a filler but had too much stuff..
      Ouch he did throw the stars again - Dandaa Bitwa- is it a sign that K parents are alive??? the twist? Symbolism are rubbing me off.. * Dia help !!!

      Delete
    3. Aaru: I think it reminds him of her and their bonding and he is trying to convince himself that all was a lie, I am telling you either tomorrow of after he comes back, she will wake up to all her stuff in her place except Salman Khan poster:)

      Delete
    4. Also, it was about his hatred thawing and her understanding his behaviour all these months, so in that sense I would say it was damn good.

      I saw some posts wanting Khushi to stop feeling so bad, I am like Are you kidding me, After so much hardships we got rid of the OTT Khushi and got the original khushi back, Let her cry, let him cry, isnt that what 4th promo was all about.

      *Looks at Godjee* - Crying for fictional character only, Don't MU me now.

      Delete
    5. shwets , yes it was all about her undestanding him , accepting all his anger and hurt, Even I think that all her things will be back to its place except the salman one ..
      I want K to cry, and breakdown that's when she will turn Durga and fight against RRR. Same way as she did with bitwa after the marriage.

      She has to go to her lowest and then rise up fighting !

      Shewts I really wish that its Bitwa trying to put her things back and finds the file and confornts this time, gives her a chance to explain and hope she tells him the whole truth, signs it after reading it, ask shyam to meet at the airport. or tell her , making a deal asking her to get shyam at airport and he will sign any dam paper.
      so infact the papers aren't signed.. and hence kidnapp ... pls hope its that way... because I can't accept ASR signing the papers at any cost.

      Delete
    6. Aaru: I hope it happens the way you say, that would be good.

      Delete
    7. Shweths, have I mentioned I love your chats with Godjee every time you ask for something nasty to happen to our beloved leads :)))

      Yep, this is Khushi reaching her lowest point again like after the marriage ... and then rising to fight again ... this time fighting the REAL enemy, Shyam ...

      Ramayan mein Ravan kidnapped Sita and Ram fought him to rescue her ... yahan hamara show is a little ulta ... Ravan kidnaps Ram and Sita fights (hopefully!) to rescue him! This is modern Vaidehi!

      But whatever it is, I hope Arnav knows about the signature deal, whether he finds the file himself or Khushi shows it to him ... how the heck will she get his signature anyway otherwise - he doesn't still trust her!

      Delete
    8. Shwets I really want Bitwa to make a deal with K although the poor girl is stuck btn the 2 deals,
      It makes logical sense because - for anyways Shyamu would have already planned Bitwa's kidnapping, even if K was able to get the sign, he would have anyway kidnapped bitwa to kill him and take over the property, so when K goes to shyam asking him come to thee airport tell arnav the truth and take the signed papers, he accepts, But shyamu will switch over to plan B and kidnap bitwa for signing the paper also. that's one way you can keep K and A not dumb.
      What I can't digest is - even if K and A read the documents and A signs which I highly doubt or K taking sign 'dhooke se' is again going to create the distance btn Arhi when they come back.
      So I want Bitwa to make deal thinking that she creating a story, but he will really get kidnapped and then he will start thinking that K was right, that will start his dimaag to work and connect the dots.
      Did I make sense???

      Delete
    9. Exactly hence I want Bitwa to make a deal asking her to get Shyam to the airport because he still doesn't trust her - will not sign the papers ! and K getting it signed in other ways is again against what she said to RRR yesterday - that I will not betray him.

      Delete
    10. Dia, I am not kidding here, Me and Godjee have this understanding Bura sochegi toh bura hoga tumharaay saath,so making sure there is no MU. Can't afford to take any Panga with Godjee:)

      Dia there is also simultaneous Agnipariksha going on for Khushi, prove your innocence.

      Also she will be held captive at Ashok Van aka Ram where Shyam will be the ruler in Arnav's absence, so Bitwa has to ikatthafy vanar sena on second thoughts he is more than enough for Shyam to rescue Khushi.

      Aaru: From the promo, he is softening and I am sure when he goes inside he is going to give her the classic turn-look of his. Almost 24 hours have passed since she gave her version, instead of dismissing it outright, he will give it a deep thought, he will give her the benefit of doubt.

      And ofcourse there is the twist I mentioned about Arnav handing over his empire to Bharat-cum Lakshman (Ab ek hi cousin bhai hai toh main kya karoon, Dhruv ko toh drop kar diya PH nay)as a preemptive measure against Shyam.

      Delete
    11. Shwets Shiddat to that one and am sure that classic turn and look will be there( i think according to Kurti who was at mall shoot did say that. ) I so want a long one, not just look and turn- I want that longing as if he is leaving is life back.. with K there -- tho soye pe suhaga!! and with new Rv lyrics pls!!

  4. Loved the SI_BS scene...they are just too gud.... these two can always be proud of the work they have done here..such intensity in scene after scene..diffi to decide which u like more...

    today when Arnav shouts at Khushi about the change in room, in a way it was an absolute giveaway of how much they love each other and yet can't say it to the other. In reality, a "head desk* moment but the superior writing and acting just made u feel for these two, their sad situation

    Aaru, u r right, it is diffi to control ur tears when San is in an emotional scene, BS was wonderful too, loved his expressions...

    Aki, Its a common Tellyland problem....when they have time, they won't speak up and when they do, they will be interrupted...its the curse of communication in tellyworld.....hehehe

  5. wow an entire week with very good episodes .... This has to be the first ..... Take a bow IPK team and fans!

    Poor baby loves his biwi around him in antics, things and of course in flesh and meat.... What is he thinking when he says ..... 6 mahine baadh zindagi se bahar phek doonga .... Silly boy!

    Dialogue that touched my heart .....

    A: Tumhe laage kese ke tum mere room pe changes kar sakti ho?

    K: Hume toh ye aaj pata chala hai ke ....

    My eyes went warm ..... In love with ArHi all over again!

    Baruns movie well am not surprised .... Feels good to be proved right, once said this he looks to me like a guy who know his limitations, the fact that he has to learn alot and he is too honest for media. It was a true answer though..... Had a blast going through IF ..... I mean seriously you had to doubt him .... A guy who declared just 2 days back that "ASR the best thing that happened to him and thats obvious" when asked something about his career.

    Loved his reactions to SHEHNAZ!!!! Arrrrhg seriously .... She is a dumb and arrogant *****. Producers you have 2 TV why not a 3rd?!

    I won't be surprised if there is an SBS segment with chughal khor aunty saying "Barun ne shoot pe laut te hi Sanaya ko ek Big Bear Hug kyoun diya?!"

    Awwwwwwww, that dialogue, does he realizes she is slowly withdrawing from him, she gave back his room to him, she is waiting in the office formally.

    Gone is the sadda haq, Ooooooh Bitwa must be hating that.

  8. Shyaamu ka kya kehna :D :D

    Loved him today .... Now cvs you did not forget the characters after all .... What was the after holi kolaveri di for??

    Always desperate when it comes to Khushi ..... It made me remember Khushis engagement revealing episode where he couldn't stop making calls after calls.

    Khushi wants to read the document first - this has to be the first for SP or any bahu .... Good going Khushi.

    Bitwa seems like to have moved to next compartment ..... Another memory imprinted. Confrontation over terrace scene.

    Iss telly world communication gap ko kya naam doon?

    Shwetha I have a dislike for Shehnaz since her MTV time ..... I meant is that as they already signed 2TV actor (Barun and Kavi) why couldn't they choose an actress from TV world too. Even the dumbest TV actress knows better acting than Shehnaz!

  9. Rekha: Completely agree, they even made the button wala scene look good.

    Sama: Oh he is soooooo going to appreciate he when he comes back. I have no problem with Shenaz,I somehow don't see her as the career minded girl, she is more like airheaded types - The film part I mean which she is suitable for, who knows Shenaz might surprise us.

    Anyhow, it is a given that Barun and Kavi will eat her alive if she does not match up.

    *Can I say this without being MUed*

    While watching MJHT, I always felt that Mohit felt way short of Sanaya, He improved and kept improving but Sanaya was always miles ahead of him. So I am really happy for Sanaya that she has found a costar who can match up to her.

    And now they have this beautiful symbiotic relationships where they keep lifting each other's performance.

    P.S What happened in IF regarding his movie?

    4. Jaya: I meant about Mohit, not to be considered as bashing or something.

      Sama: Array baba simple maths hai.

      4 Guys 1 Girl. 40 days of shooting. Each couple will get 10 days. So Barun will be finishing his part in the first 10 days and then the other guys.

      So during Post production work, he will be called for Dubbing, some reshooting probably and when the movie releases for promotion.

      So the show is on till September or Dec Max. Only after the movie releases and how well it is received, he will contemplate the next move.

      And he has to be in IPK when the movie releases, so the recall factor is there.

      And in the MEANTIME BARUN, Enrol yourself for Dance classes and learn to be more Media Savvy. I mean this sincerely.

      Its like...tell me ur problem...i will break into parts and explain it to u in compartments...

      "4 Guys 1 Girl. 40 days of shooting. Each couple will get 10 days. So Barun will be finishing his part in the first 10 days and then the other guys."
      Its too cute..hehehe...
      If there was way, i could ask BS to enroll in Shweths classes, btw, we can also give him some muft ka advice...wotsay?

    6. yes shwetha this generation in general is weak in Maths .... 13 fail out of 35 ..... Finished writing quartely reports for this term!! :D

      Arrey when did I have any problem with Maths, not then not now.....was stating IF condition.

      He will learn in bits, it will take time as I said he seems to know what he is.

    7. Shweths, regarding Mohit - go ahead, you'll find me your biggest supporter. In fact I said this way back when MJHT was winding up, and some of my friends were dead keen for MJHT 3 with Monaya ... I was equally dead AGAINST it ... I wanted Sanaya with an actor of her calibre, or at least somewhere close ... Mohit was nowhere near her, although he did improve towards the end. I annoyed quite a few diehard Mohit supporters with my views *ROFL*

      To give him credit, though, he always acknowledged Sanaya very generously that she helped him a lot, taught him a lot ...

      and I can see that BS has also improved a lot from the start of the show ... and in an iv, he also acknowledged that shooting with San brought out the best in him, because she is so dedicated that he finds it easy to act with her ...
      Their scenes together, especially the emotional ones like today are so powerful with such few words ... you can see that they feed off each others performances, especially BS, because his expressions are sometimes less intense when there is a BD ... I really wonder how his acting will be with that airhead!

      Is it 4 guys? I thought it was 3?

      But his media side and PR need some major work!

    8. Sama: Aiyooo, I was not talking about you re, in general. I read some posts where they want Happy Khushi. I was like WT, itnay mushkil say Dukhi Khushi mili hai, let her STAY till Barun comes back.

      Rekha: I am sure koi toh hoga *cough silent readers* who can baantofy our muft, sincere and Best ideas to him.

      Waisay I keep thinking like Sama, Sanaya would have been brilliant in this role.

    9. Dia: I read somewhere Mohit also tried for this role and I frankly Loved him when they had that who died thingy and he became all serious.

      *Just realizing - I do prefer intense guys onscreen than fun ones, don't I, Hmm..*

      Naa re DIA, it is 4 guys, 2 well known, 2 unknown.

    10. yes Shwets he was approached for this after KSG, but at that time MJHT was shutting shop and the story was more female centric with SP bahu with title Vaidehi.. and it didn't workout.

      Samrat and Mohit of MJHT2 is mine and Dia's shiddat getting granted.. it was only few of us who wanted that matured and serious Sam, Mohit was bang on with some emotional scenes espl the meri chashmish, and Look at me ones, they were intense and with passion, we used to pray for those kinds of roles, and once Miss D re-entred all went down the hill with OTT comedy.

      Delete
    11. I left watching MJHT after they kept on dragging and switched to LNMDJ, the show after MJHT. Did watch the makeover of Samrat and liked it but had already switched over to LNMDJ, the show after MJHT.

      That show had the same writing team as IPK.

      Prithvi was the pioneer, the improved it with Maan and Perfected it with ASR.

      Delete
    12. I watched LNMDJ too in bits and pieces ... and Prithvi Damini were my favorites :))) I liked Prithvi!

      So this writing team is the same? And the same as Geet too? I didn't realise that!

      Delete
    13. Screenplay and dialogue writers is the same team, maybe even story too and ofcourse Arshad Khan is here too.

      One of the reasons I love this show, they can get cheeky sometimes and it is sooooo much fun when they poke fun at themselves and at us the audience, lol.

  10. Wonderful acting by sarun.I thought Kushi will be angry and leave RM.but she seems to have forgiven him already so how will the guilt and redemption track will happen. grovellng after MU is my fac in romance they better give us a good and long one.

    1. Anon, ur question is apt...diffi to say how it will pan out....but if u see, she is doing all of this without any expectation of affection from Arnav....Its quite possible that when she realises that Arnav actually loved her all along and yet chose not to believe her....will cause the greatest distress...

      However, her leaving may be forced due to circumstances; her leaving of her own accord, i can see it happening only if ASR gets worse from hereon......gold digging dialogue may come back to haunt ASR one day for sure...

    2. Rekha, Both ASR and Anjali need to have character growth. Otherwise there is no point in the serial.Kushi also needs to learn from her mistakes. I hope they show how everyone learns an imp.

    4. Hi Shwetha.Changed my profile from anon.
      I love ASR and Anjali. But Sometimes I get too much irritated by their relationship.It rather seems like brother /sister story than a love story. I want ASR to confess that he married Kushi coz of jealousy and not his di.lol ASR is one confused soul.Only Kushi can handle him.

    5. Laks as in Lakshmi? Poochnay may kya jaat hai na, hugs and welcome.

      He will NEVER confess to that unless Khushi worms it out of him.

      K - Why did you marry me
      A - Cos I wanted to save my Di's marriage
      K - Oh yeah, If it had been Kanta bai or some bloody auntji, behenjee,would you have married her too?

      A - Ofcourse not you Idiot, I dont Love them, I love you.
      K - You are a bigger Idiot, How can you think I love Shyam and not figure out I love you.

      Audience - You BOTH are Idiots, Now move on to the next stage will ya?

    6. Laks, welcome!

    8. @shwetha laks for lakshmi.i think ASR himself is not ready to acknowledge the real reason.he convinces himself it's for di.i thought ASR had a master plan behind the sudden marriage.but now it looks more like an impulsive decision.Infact he seems to trust KJ more than Kushi.his brain stops working when it comes to matter of the heart.

      @dia thanks .grt blog.

  11. BS and SI were brilliant today. I was surprised that even BS could give scenes like SI, eyes moist and emotions flowing. His expressions when she says that how her things must be hurting him, were bang on..I liked that the scene was not rushed, instead they paused to show the effect of her words on him.
    They have to shoot together to give such brilliant scenes to us.
    Abhas as usual has nailed being a villain. And his hindi diction is so crystal clear, perfect pronunciation, periods.
    I am too confused about the envelop..may be ASR is not going to London ? I cant think of any plot! Looking forward to the ME, I hope CV keep up the good work.

      Anita: I wanted him to sleep on the bed too, but then we would not have seen Khushi sleeping on it when he goes missing, so will wait for the Bedpravesh of Arnav now.

    6. shwetha- thanks for suggesting Sukhwinder as BS's name in the movie. I caught that during the clip and kept thinking, really Sukhi a guy' name! I havent been at all excited with BS's choice of the movie, and the clip of him and shenaz was quite funny and on top of that his name Sukhi really added to the amusement! Now atleast I see an alternative.
      CVs give us a good ME. Part of me wants to see the sad and helpless Khushi as then only ODB redemption will be a long and a hard one.
      Oh! I so want the old flirty ASR to be back, who made my Khushi go weak in her knees.
      I love both SI and BS to the core..is pyaar ko kya naam doon! I cant watch either of them crying/sad.

      BUT, I agree with the sentiments of Dia et al if BS screws with IPK and SI to fulfill his ambitions of monetary gain and more fame, good luck to him..but he will never be the same to me. I just cant get over this- couldn't he think of an alternative time to try his hands in BW.. did he really have to go for it NOW! And then I say, as always May be Godjee has seen something good in this as well.

    2. He's been bang on except for Monday ... he wasn't good on Monday, but then the entire episode was not well scripted ... no wonder he didn't deliver properly! After that the script tightened and he stepped right up to the plate! Sanaya was great all through, but she really took off the second half of Monday, and she never stopped - she has been simply brilliant the whole week through!

      The only problem is, when Khushi is sad, the whole mood is down! Her moods are just too infectious!

  16. Hi Dia. This is Ratna here. I follow your blog everyday and enjoy all the comments. I was compelled to write in today as I share your feeling of sadness. Khushi a girl with so much spunk and joy reduced to a depressed state coz she wants to prove to her man that she is innocent . Rejected by the man who never stops to say I hate you but this time she really believes him.

    Her waiting outside his office and removing her stuff from the room with the new RV has depressed me as well.

    Sanaya and Barun are phenonmenal together and they bring out the best in each other. I hope Barun acknowldges this that it is not about big or small screen it is the group of people you are working with who bring out the best in you . I wish him well but if he screws IPK I will personally never watch him even if he becomes a bomb like my Salman . HeHe...Take care

    1. Hey Ratna ... is this premparbat Ratna from IF or a new Ratna? Good to see you here!

      I know, it was so sad to see Khushi so down and depressed and miserable :( I need to see a cheerful Sanaya in SBS to make me feel better!

      And ditto your feelings on Barun ... he has all the right to make career moves, but he'd better not let down the show that gave him so much of fame and adulation! It would be suicidal for his career as well! And if he spoils Sanaya's first successful show, where she is solo heroine and has carried the entire show on her shoulders, then I will never forgive him!

    5. Hey Girls ,
      I see that everyone is feeling quite down today, Khushi does this to all of us . The brighter side of this is , the sadder that Khushi get, the longer the RTR gets for Bitwa and hopefully we get more intense scenes of guilt and love once ASR is back from London.

      Swetha - Are you sbk2 of IF and Ratna(premparbhat) - Nice to see you on R&R :-)

      Dia's blog is very infectious, although I can't keep up with the chit chat mainly because of the time difference, but do peek in whenevr I have a few minutes during the day. Love the lively conversations, the views, predictions and of course my favorites are the shiddats.
      This virtual coffee room is also a fan club of Sanaya's , most of the girls seem to be a die hard fan of SI. Since I haven't seen any of SI's previous serials, I support them both equally and think that they both feed off each other very well. They both are great actors and given a good script, a good director and a good co-actor, they both will rock wherever they go next.

      I saw some of the pictures of Barun's movie, have to admit that I'm not that excited. He could have waited for a better role or a bigger banner instead of jumping ship so quickly. I fully support him i his decision and wish him all the success, just hope that he knows what he is doing or giving up in,lieu o his movie career. I completely agree with Mona that he needs some coaching with respect to speaking to the media, he sounds quite inexperienced during his interviews.

      Dia - Will you or one of the R&R girls have a LU during the ME tomorrow?

      Talk to you all tomorrow,

  18. i know you all have already talked about it but still -

    why oh why are you not reading the damned file KKG??? (have a feeling TF will somehow have too many simple harmless papers in there thinking KKG will not read through it all and put in the dangerous ones in the middle - or could it be that he has given the paper to her so that ASR feels she is in it with Shyam?? - wants to create more MUs between them - No but TF has made is pretty clear that is first adn final love is money - all others are just fillers for him!)

    ODB - you obviously cant work or concentrate on any thing when you hurt your wife - why o why do you do it idiot!! felt really sad for the two of them today :(

    ODG has the brains - please use them - do us proud - dont trick ASR into anything! am glad they showed a lot of monologues today - actually walked teh audience through KKGs thought process an desperation!

    the envelop?? Anji say - why are you doing this - we are all here - and him saying i always do it - What can it mean? has to be something linked to the past! -

    no reference to the london trip so far? or did i miss it?

    creepwa was slimy!

    OBD - again - you cant even live without the SK poster -- how do you propose to live without ODG???

    And finally - KKG, please cry as much as you want once and for all and then rise like a phoenix - no 'bechari' roles for you - even your dear husband cant stand to see you weak!!

    Best post of today: could not stop laughing for a bit!

    "*ROFL* ... Adding to the gneral gyan ... all serials progress because the characters never have normal conversations, always hide things from each other to "protect' the other's delicate sensibilities, always overhear only the WRONG half of a crucial conversation, and letters always go into the wrong hands ...

    Oh and they never confess their love ... although everyone including the neighbourhood dhobi's donkey knows they are in love!"

    ReplyDelete
  19. oh and one last point - TF himself told KKG that he could easily go and tell ASR the 'truth' that she tried to entrap him type of story - something she should have thought of but lets say for arguments sake that she is too naive and innocent to believe that people can be this rotten - so she did not think of it - BUT now TF has said it out loud - he can create problems - so why trust him??? use your brains please!

    See dear girl - this is what happens when you turn to the enemy for help and end up telling him you love your dear boy - before you have even told you dear boy!!!! *head desk head desk*!!!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Mona, agree with ALL your questions ... me too!!! But am still clinging to hope for today - still feel KKG will tell ODB the truth and then leave it to him to decide what to do. She would be utterly crazy to deceive him about this one - till now, her sin was of omission - she didn't tell him the truth, but she never deliberately lied. If cv's make her go that road, then it really finishes her character!!! Besides, it's the MOST cliched of all tracks, so I'm just praying that they turn this into yet another googly.

      I was hopeful because at the airport, Arnav's tone is not one of anger at all, it's much more tender almost ... but the precap is not the actual scene from the ME, it's the one from the promo. So we have no clue how it will play out today :(

      *fingers and toes crossed tightly* ... Godjee and cv's, meri KKG ki laaj rakhna!!!

    2. Mona : me too agree with you plus one more question.....on thursday's episode she ran to alert Bitwa that Snakewa wants him to sign some papers, which doesn't seem trust worthy...so how can she herself take the papers.....esp when on thursday she said that she won't deceive bitwa, no matter what he thinks of her.....

      so me too adding to Dia's prayers that let it be a google else its a total volte-face from thursday's bitiya

  24. Mona Argee with all your questions, I really don't want one MU here, if she gets bitwa sign the papers in anyother way other than telling him the truth will go against what she has been preaching about herself to him and RRR.

  29. a few questions bothering me -

    - TF cannot come out in the open about kidnapping ASR - he will continue to play the worried bestest Son in law and not the slimpy creepwa RRR! right - so he cant come out adn challenge ODB in the open - Otherwise the fat is in the fire - and then could this lead to not only anjali finding out about Creepwa, throwing him out/further MUs and loosing her baby!! (then the PH dies not have to spend on a cushion!) etc

    - secondly don't want ODG to save ODB - he needs to save himself - he is the hero for crying out loud!!! haan but if she does find him just as he is escaping and he goes ballistic - what are you doing here, tumko kuch ho jata to? and she goes aapko kuch ho jata to !(talk about being cheesy :d:D)

    and of course - come what may - she cannot canot cheat him - as it is i have come to terms with her swallowing her pride and becoming the typical wife who will basically kills (in our language - apnay aap ko mitti kar lena!)herself to prove her innocence instead of fighting with him (with pride) as to how he ever dared to doubt her - have come to peace with this coz i can understand that if both hold on to their egos, how will the story progress??

  30. Was watching the whole week episode again-- Gosh if you watch the whole thing right from the confrontation to yesterday's dilemma.. It’s so heart wrecking.. God Arhi made me cry the whole time. My heart went out to this girl who is broken by one person she loves .... With all people around her, but none absolutely none to hold and cry, none to understand, no one to tell her everything will be alright. She is at a juncture where she doesn’t know what to do, if she doing is right or wrong, only thing she can cling to is her DM to guide her !
    Shwets now I am seriously dreading Khushi's breakdown as we have thought.
    And since we didn't have any song dedication for last few episodes, this was the song which was playing at BG and seemed so apt- for Khushi...

    3. Oh god, this song on Khushi will be simply heartbreaking ... Sanaya will just kill us ...

      Next week is going to be tough - but I don't think they will drag the kidnapping drama for more than a week ... HOWEVER, they had better show a strong Khushi getting her act together and starting to fight Shyam ... because with the hero missing, if Khushi is also cowed down, there will be too much of negativity ... TRP's will fall further! They HAVE to show some positivity in ODG's dealings with RRR!

  32. Has anyone watched Sajda tere pyaar mein on star plus..one who has Shaleen Bhanot, Di's hubby! He has BIG dole shole. Anyways, the title song of the show is pretty good. I recently watched a vm with this song

    2. OMG, main sadke jawa..they look adorable. My liking for Shaleen has increased many folds. We should have these two and SI dance in one of the Star plus's things.
      Oh well, Shaleen can pull off ASR also I think (*wink*), he is pretty rough and tough in Sajda!

    5. Among D and S, S is a great dancer while D is just average, but the best part was their chorography and theme they selected, their highest point was their simplicity and emotions.

    6. I noticed them in NB when they danced to Dola re dola re dola from Devdas - both dressed as women - Madhuri and Aishwarya ... and Shaleen was simply fantabulous!!! Yep, he is the better dancer, Daljeet is very good, but in comparison she suffers, although she's not half bad herself!

      Sukhi, I'm not sure Shaleen can pull off ASR ...

      I'm still imagining only Harshad Chopra in that role if BS leaves ... similar looks, tall, dark, broody and he acts well. And he can dance too :)

      But BS had better not leave! After looking at his movie choice, he would be rather stupid to!!! Acting with a 3rd rate actress, a wannabe who's been around for some time, not even a fresh face ... he would have to be very stupid to leave IPK! Don't know why he even took up this role at all ... not a great launch pad for sure!

    7. Dia- I was just kidding with Shaleen being ASR comment! If the dooms day comes when he leaves, I dont know who will we as an audience be able to accept.
      Rahi baat BS ki. I think he took up this mediocre movie as a way to earn quick bucks. I guess, I am okay with it but still BAD timing.
      I just cant accept the fact, that SI is putting all her heart into the show and BS is doing it as a part time gig (As of now).

  35. Hi all
    This is my second post here. First bring yesyerday. I watched nach baliye 4 only for shaleen n daljeet's excellent dancing skills. They were amazingly good and raised the bar with each of their performance. Their performance on bakhuda tumhi ho was by far one of the best on Indian television performed by non-professional dancers.....
    Having said that can't imagine shaleen playing ARnav Singh Raizada. shaleen is an okay ish actor. He might be ok as ASR but I'm not sure he can handle being Arnav....
    I've been following Sajda last few days. Liking the story so far. Like Ronit Roy and Shaleen but not sure of the female lead in the show.....
    Coming back to IPK I want Khushi to break down and cry as much as she likes but rise again and look for ODB. I want her to come very close finding ODB but I want bitwa to save himself. I want to see bitwa having enough FBs and I want to see him using his brain and realise that khushi was innocent all along, that he was so wrong about her. I want him to save himself and come not just to save Di from creepwa but more so to save Khushi and to eventually tell Khushi that he made a huge mistake.
    I want ASR to come back with vengeance and I want arnav to come back for his lady love.....

    1. Hey Anon and welcome to the blog! Is Smile your pseudonym or your sign off?!

      Agree with your comments on Shaleen - I saw him in a cameo on DMG and liked him ... but again, don't know about ASR, it's a complex role and would take any actor some time to get into it completely. Even BS took some time ... he was stiff at the start and took a few weeks to really get his teeth into the role. Shaleen plays a similar unsmiling kind of guy in Sajda, I think ... I've watched it in passing ... he's ok, not great or riveting. At least he hasn't hooked me ...

      Agree with you on Khushi ... I would like to see her using her brains to rescure Bitwa ... and I actually hope it's a joint effort of sorts ... and that Bitwa realizes she is innocent at the end of it ... though NOT by hearing Shyam boast about it!!! Can Bitwa please start using his brain and connecting the dots?

  36. Dia,

    Loved your line here and could agree more.

    "ODB really is guilty of pushing Khushi towards Shyam each and every single time!!!"


    Yes, he is! Right from the time he released the fashion footage to the media which got her into contact with Shyam in the first place up to yesterday's episode when he blatantly ignored her and left her standing in the middle of the road, to be taken advantage of by the creep.


    If he had not pushed her away and announced his engagement to La on Diwali night and to top it accuse her of trying to entrap a rich guy, she wouldn't have allowed herself to be engaged to the creep. He accused her again of entrapping his jiju when she demanded an answer for his forced marriage just the day before. Is it surprising then that the poor girl is unsure that he will trust her version of the truth and not the creep's? Why did he not let her know that he has confronted Shyam already and the wedding was a result of that confrontation? By not revealing that crucial piece of information he has let her play into the hands of that creep yet again. In tamil there is a proverb: "Kudumbum rendagam pattal kuttalikku thaan kondattam" which loosely translates into "If the family is divided, it benefits the guy who wants to take advantage of the split."


    When there are so many evidences to corroborate her version, he chooses to still remain fixed on the terrace scene.

    Evidence No.1: The woman had no clue why he forcefully married her till he himself told her a day before. If she was carrying on with Shyam would she have not known the reason from him?


    Evidence No.2: The woman was all set to kill herself, thinking he wanted her out of the way so that he could get married to La. If she was having an affair with Shyam why would she take such a drastic decision. All she needed to do was wait till the contract period was over and rejoin her lover. He cannot think she staged the act because she did not let him know that she was planning to kill herself. The letter was not meant to be found till later.



    Evidence No. 3: If the woman was a home wrecker, would she have bothered to paint a good picture of him in front of her family, knowing she will have to return to live with them after six months? Would it not have been in her interest to paint him black so that they will sympathise with her rather than take his side?


    Evidence No.4: If the woman wanted to hook up with Shyam after six months, would she not have thought of the repercussions on her sister's life of her action, a sister for whom she was willing to put up with all the inconveniences of a forced marriage to him?

    Evidence No.5: This I thought was the strongest. He seems to remember every single word she uttered on holi day. He also knew that she was stoned on that day. So obviously she could not have lied in that state. She had virtually admitted her feelings for him and still he keeps thinking that she is having an affair with Shyam???

    All these evidences were right there before his eyes, even before she opened her mouth to give her side of the story. Once she gave him the story, the evidences only kept increasing.

  37. Evidence No.6: She told him that Shyam stayed in their place as a PG and manipulated her entire family into getting engaged to her after her father took ill. He himself knew for a fact that the man she got engaged to was a PG in her house. He had even heard her mention his name in his presence. Now if she was having a clandestine affair with the man would she have dared to utter his name in his presence?

    Evidence No.7: She told him that she broke of the engagement the day she came to know he was married. He himself was a witness to the emotionally shaken state she was the day before her supposed broken engagement. Should this not ring a bell then?

    If these incidents have slipped from his mind, he mentioning them should have brought back those memories again. Why is he unable to process the information he is now in possession of?

    The only reason I can see is that the great Arnav Singh Raizada has a hard time accepting that he made a huge error of judgment. He cannot accept the fact that he was wrong in placing so much trust in his creep jiju. He'd rather live with the belief that the creep was the one who was entrapped by the enchantress than think the man he and his entire family held in such high regard was, is and will always be the cunning, conniving, manipulative and obsessive womaniser. After all if he holds Khushi responsible for tempting the man, he can find an excuse for his own weakness for the woman. For a man who has sworn he would never fall in love now finds himself irrevocably in love with her. That is her doing. She has ensnared him in her trap as she did with his jiju.


    When he asked her how she could do this to the family which has done so much for her, I wanted her to ask him back what have they done? In fact the Raizada house owes more to Khushi than she does to them. Whatever money she received was a remuneration for her work. Her financial problems were the direct result of his actions. If anyone owes anything, it is Arnav himself. If it had not been for Khushi, his life would be listless and drab. She brought happiness and joy into his family. By evoking love in him, she brought in the positivity that comes with it. She taught him to be more human and yet he'd rather turn a blind eye to all this and remain fixed on that terrace scene. Oh yes, he has more faith in himself and what he saw and heard rather than her, even if what he saw and heard makes no sense, given all the evidences before him.

    Before she met him there were three things that Khushi had faith in:

    She had faith in Devi Maiyaa: He rudely shook it on the day he forced this temp marriage on her, shattering all her dreams.

    She had faith in her parents, whom she believed to have turned into stars: He has been repeatedly throwing away those stars, thereby symbolically shaking another of pillar of her faith.


    She had faith in herself: Whatever trials and tribulations she encountered, Khushi always faced them because of her faith in herself. His repeated accusations of her being a home wrecker and an enchantress who can stoop to any level has shaken that third pillar too. She is unsure of herself and wonders whether she needs to elicit Shyam's help to clear her name.


    I hope Khushi retains her spirit through all of this and shows the man what she really is made up of - a strong woman who can weather the worst storms in life and still preserve the tender heart within which knows only to love him, no matter what he subjects her to.

    Arnav does have to trudge a long… long… long… and weary road to redemption. He sure will take it for he knows the prize waiting for him at the end of it is worth every effort he needs to take to get there.

    1. well said Opti-

      point 1 to 3 - of course common sense should have tole him that - but using CS is not a strong point of SP character - even if he is ASR!

      point 5 - totally agree - in fact even wrote about this earlier - if IDB remembers everything he said - ok but he actually remembers everything she said!! and he knows she was very very honest then - so how could he doubt her then??? that's why i had said earlier that the CVs should not have brought back the Holi fb- they should have left it as an aside done specially to boost trps!

      point 6 & 7 - oh he believes her - he definitely did when she said all that - its when he went back (mentally) to the terrace scene that he hardened again -
      And again i agree with you - the problem is he cannot trust. - the one man he totally trusted, turned out such a scumbag - so now he really cant trust anyone at all - least of all the girl who can totally control him (if he lets go - he will be putty in her hands, and he knows it!!)- he has to be strong and crude to fight her - the jija he can through out whenever - its her he cant - hence all this drama with her!!

      however saying that the financial problems were because of him is not fair - the Guptas were mortgaging the shop for the wedding - so, whatever the outcome of the wedding - the shop was not mortgaged coz of ASR and them not being able to save it was also not coz of him - the rest - yes, he was behind most of her problems!

    2. I, for one, believe that his RTR has started the moment he heard the truth from her. from that moment on, HE BELIEVES HER.

      yes, he tries to deny it, shouts at her, calls her a gold digger again, but coming back, he sees shyam's barbs. from that point on, the terrace shyam hug has been erased from his mind... the full volume of his FBs revolve around him accusing her. ... means, he is asking himself.. he is questioning his belief on his own actions..

      he avoids the bedroom... he cannot face her. sits with the others, they want to know why he looks like that. so leaves for office. the button scene happens. he is more and more convinced to let arnav win over ASR.... because arnav tells him," ASR is wrong. khushi - my heart - is right.. "

      then he sees her waiting for him.. and cannot face her.. wants to find a hideyhole and curl up in a foetal position, but he cannot... but she is waiting... and waiting... he cannot concentrate on work.. stares at her from afar... and cannot take the enormousness of her grief.

      he does not trust himself to behave like ASR if he and she meet in the room.. so he flees again.

      he comes home... avoids the bedroom again.. this time, sitting in the study/TV room.. less family interference here.
      cannot face her... but anjali comes..with more distateful things to add to his mental burden... he needs his room..his wife, even if it is to fight again, he needs her presence.

      goes there, only to find that she is removing her presence from his life.. naked terror strikes his heart. "who asked you to change the room???"

      "I just discovered that i had no right" and his heart breaks for her heartbreak. Arnav cannot fathom the hurts he has caused her...and is guilty of them all..

      but no, never will i let you sleep outside again. you deserve my bed... even if i will never be worthy enough to share it with you. you are my queen.. but I dont dare tell you that...


      P.S.yes, I see arnav when everyone else saw khushi... and I am happy with that.

      Delete
    3. Mona, the financial problems were partly his doing. Even if the shop was mortgaged to foot the wedding expenses, her father could not re-establish himself in his business because of his deteriorating health which was the combined effect of the fallout of a stalled wedding and the disrepute brought by Arnav releasing the tapes to the media.


      As to being strong because he cannot throw her out, he'd rather hurt her knowingly rather than admit she is his weakness? That is chivalrous indeed! Yes, he cannot trust anyone but himself and there will come a day when he will kick himself for not using either his head or his heart in this matter. Right now I cant sympathise with him as much I sympathise with Khushi.

    5. Jaya - i know i see ODB too when the concentration is on ODG - actually i like both and can see flaws in both - see if ODB is being an ass and not accepting what he knows to be true - (yes i too agree that he believed her!) - she was being a fool by not telling him about the creepwa earlier or even in her room!
      - for me too - his RTR has begun!- for me it began longtime back- you see from my POV - he is ridiculously rude and hurtful to KKG but he too is hurting (maybe even more) coz he knows (what he believes is the truth!) while she was worried why he is like this - he thinks he knows why he is like that and hence the terrible position! remember the scene where KKG comes out to sleep (after the wedding - she was in a yellow saree) and he was rethinking about the terrace, his sister and his feelings for her and rips up at her - and she shouts back - that was the perfect portrayal of the agony they were both in!! (Also - he is hurting for her, for loosing his BIL - one person he trusted and his sister = who he knows will collapse without her RRR!)
      so for me - this ridiculous MU is so damned stupid coz both know they love each other and are so perfect for each other - yet they cant see what we can uuff!!!

    6. Mona, Jaya,

      Arnav also hurting does not make up for his redemption. I can excuse his behaviour on the wedding day or even a few days from then because he had to face too much far too soon that he couldn't process anything but his behaviour since then is mostly inexcusable. He did win a few brownie points in GH because he let his love win over inspite of his MU. As to why he should still continue having the MU still is hard to digest and does not gel with the rest of his personality but then I'm willing to overlook it. But if at this point he believes her and yet acts as if he does not, I don't find that excusable. It is another thing that Barun with his big brown eyes will make any heart melt with his intense and pained looks but the character of ASR still has a long way to go before being redeemed and I don't want Khushi to readily accept him, not because she is unforgiving but because she is too shattered by everything she has been put through.

    7. Have time for a quick reply before dinner :)

      More than anything else, I will use Opti's points 6 and 7 as Khushi's defence. Arnav says that he believes only the evidence of his own eyes and ears. doesn't he? While points 1-5 he could claim were because of Khushi's acting skills and wanting to fool his family, but 6 and 7 are things he has witnessed himself.

      He knows she said her fiance is a lawyer, was the Guptas' PG and that the family fixed the wedding, and the name ... she never hid a single fact. If she was in clandestine affair with Shyam, and knew he was married to Di, would she have said his name and his profession so openly?

      HE saw and heard with his own eyes and ears that she was not hiding her fiance at her house, on the contrary she went to call Shyam herself, she looked for him in the room, but Shyam had fled.

      He saw for himself how broken she was the day she discovered Shyam's truth ... she let out to him that it was her fiance who had caused that state ... and within two days he knew her engagement had broken.

      Also he has seen today Shyam making advances in front of the entire family ... and Khushi is upset ... well okay, she would be upset either way, but he has seen Shyam's boldness for himself, and Khushi told Arnav that Shyam has still not stopped his harkatein ...

      All these things HE has witnessed ... now coupled with her story, should he not at least wonder whether there is a possibility of her telling the truth. Should not the process of thinking START?

      And what I find unforgiveable - HE told her that she didn't tell him, she should have told him ... the girl waits the whole day at his office to meet him ... she runs after his car ... and he doesn't stop to listen to what she has to say? Then how can he blame her for not telling him? And she has told him the complete truth, down to her engagement ... what more can she do? Will he believe her if she tells him now about Shyam's file also? Or will he accuse her again of conniving with Shyam?

      He is a big tycoon, she has told him a story which can easily be corroborated, why is he not trying to at least investigate whether there is any element of truth in her story, before condemning her again? Earlier he had the excuse that she hadn't told him the truth - now what excuse does he have?

      Yes, he's hurting too ... but what love is this that he is so ready to condemn her and not give her a single chance? He is literally pushing her into the arms of his KJ ... SHE has to ask Buaji and Amma and Payal - why can't HE ask them to confirm her story?

      No, nope, his RTR has not started yet ... after knowing the truth if he is doing nothing about it ...

      Delete
    8. Dia, arnav does not know that khushi is wanting to speak to him about a file and signature or anything. In my opinion, arnav is still thinking that khushi wants to re-iterate that she is innocent.
      I think that during their confrontation after she told him the trust he believed her. But just before revealing the trust she also said that he does not deserve an explanation. I think his guilt is eating at him that's why when he looks at her directly while she is patiently waiting for him in AR he has the FBs of their confrontation specifically of those very words 'you do not deserve an explanation' .... I think he has already started on his guilt trip and half believes that she is innocent but it's a tussle between guilt and ego.... I think he is feeling guilty enough to not be able to face himself let alone facing her or speaking to her. To him facing her is like facing the mirror and he is slowly preparing himself to face the mirror... Hope this makes sense. Not sure if I can put in words the conflict I feel arnav is going through.
      Smile

      Delete
    9. Smile, no, he doesn't know what she wants to speak to him about. But it takes to have a conversation - one to talk, and one to listen. He does know that she wants to say something - he may not know about the file, but maybe she wants to offer some more evidence in her defense, does he not want to even hear it? And if he does half believe she is innocent, why is he not willing to let her prove it - or at least try? And give her a fair hearing while she does? Give her a hearing at all - fair or otherwise ...

      If he is so much in love, he should be grasping at straws for any hope that what he saw was a lie ... that what she said is the truth ... is it only his ego in the way? Or something bigger - his general mistrust of what he thought her to be at the very start and because of his own history? Either way, I can't make much excuse for his not giving her even a single hearing ... then he has no right to say that she never tried to tell him anything.

      Yes, he is in conflict - but the conflict is not between his mind and his heart ... because mind and heart should both be telling him the same thing, if he lets them. It's a conflict between what his brain is telling him, and his own fixation that what he saw cannot have been misinterpreted.

      Delete
  38. Jaya, if what you say is true and he already believes her and yet does not want to admit that he has wronged her, it only makes him look worse for me. As long as he is holding on to his ego and is unwilling to admit that he is guilty of hurting the only woman he loves, he has not even begun his journey up that redemption road. At the GH, he seemed to be taking the first steps towards it, but I feel he has regressed since then. Yes, he couldn't stand to see her remove her presence from his life and he feels bad about it but what good does it do? As long as he is on his high horse and unwilling to pay head either to his heart or head, he is still miles away from where he needs to be.

    1. Opti, I agree with you 100% he is a hotheaded ass(the donkey kind). but then, it has to happen that way, right? he tells khushi himself (quite truthfully, i might add) that his ego is quite big.. maybe bigger than his brain..

      and it is because of the private hell he is carrying around in his head , that he does not even think of the points you mentioned.. which were all good, from a logic point of view :D


      he did look like he was going back to flirt mode with khushi at GH, accepting that he loves her, and treating her that way ...confusing her again, just like the first time, but with far more seriously unfunny comedy and a heartbrakable sacrifice from khushi..


      but at that time, he was accepting that khushi had loved sham before him, but after her marriage to A, had started to care for bitwa too.. he never thought that she was totally innocent, as much a victim of sham's treachery as he was.

      that news jolted his bases. so he's out of it all right now.

      and yes, he has to think... and act on it.. and has to take some big decisions ... so I hope the kidnapping(whatever) drama is to give him some space to think.

      Delete
    2. and anyway, wile he is trying to sort this all by himself, bitiya will be sorting her mess too.. and at the end, when he finally makes a decision and comes forward, I have a feeling she will leave.

      so then, his road to "redemption in bitiya's eyes" will start only then.

      Delete
  39. Agree with you Jaya. I think it sucks to be ASR. I truly believe it hurts more to knowingly or unknowingly hurt the person one truly loves. In case of Bitwa the only person he has truly and deeply loved is khushi and to hurt her has caused him more pain and hurt each time.
    Even after the shy khushi terrace hug bitwa can't tolerate the small hurt that the choker causes her when getting ready as his bride. He know in comparison the hurt and pain he has caused her is enormous and it will be while before he can face her and come to terms with what he has done. At the moment he is under a pile of guilt with no ray of hope from his pov....
