16/7 - Epi 66 ... Sense and Sensibility

Tuesday 16th July

Manav tries his best to get some support to cajole Dadaji into forgiving Chhanchhan ... did he really think Ranjana would help?! Ranjana never helps anyone except herself!
Ranjana refuses pointblank ... Sanjana is already suffering ... she's not planning to join the ranks.
Sanjana is not suffering too much though ... because her husband Manthan is actually helping her. Till Dadaji catches them both ... more punishments meted out.
He really is a schoolmaster!!!

Chhanchhan reassures her worried father again that things are all right ... a white lie from her, but with Manav by her side, and pretty much all the family as well, not really that bad! Manav getting more and more agitated, he is not going to let Chhanchhan stay out at night alone, not if he has anything to do with it! So in he goes, to co-opt next bhabhi ... this time, wiser choice - Kaumudi. Although she's scared, but she agrees to try.

So Kaumudi tries ... with the help of sheera ... this time sheera was made for a guest! Dadaji approves ... he does like Kaumudi after all ... but that doesn't mean he will forgive Chhanchhan.

Found it sweet that Mansi was sitting outside with Chhanchhan, while Jigu brought her sheera ... the whole family ... with one or two exceptions, of course ... are upset about her punishment and are trying to be with her.

Dadaji refuses Kaumudi, and Manav takes matters into his own hands. Cajoling doesn't work, so he addresses his Dadi in the urn ... Dada and pota have an interesting conversation via the ashes ... and finally Manav loses his cool, and marches off with Dadaji's blanket and pillow, and with dialogue of the day ... if my wife can't come in, I can go out ... I cannot stay without my wife! Like you!  
Dadaji addresses Dadi again ... See his effrontery! Dadi apparently was a very sensible lady, because even her ashes speak sense ... he's like you! 

Babuji is very confident where Manav is going ... to Chhanchhan. He won't let her stay alone outside.
Babuji does know his son well. Seems Umaben does not.

Manav is learning fast ... Chhanchhan has to fulfill her duty of bahu, while he has to fulfill his duty of a husband. Another good dialogue ... and very true!
Of course Chhanchhan has not eaten anything the whole day, and of course neither has Manav. So they feed each other ... more good dialogues, very matter-of-fact but their sweetness was in the sheer matter-of-fact nature!
Why is it that NO meals get completed in any TV show?! Makes me feel hungry! This time, rain and thunder interrupt the meal.

Dadaji continues his conversation with the Ashes ... they are apparently his own conscience, and he's battling it, already feeling bad about the punishment he meted out ... and since he is basically a nice guy, the rain and thunder makes him feel worse.

Manav wants CC to fake something, find a way and get inside the house anyhow ... Chhanchhan refuses pointblank, and tries to explain to Manav that it's just not the right thing to do, and will make things worse. She made a mistake and she'll take the punishment. And she knows Dadaji will forgive her eventually  ... if she respects him, he will respect her.
Obviously after that, Dadaji couldn't do much else ... especially since his own grandson was calling him old, sanki etc ... and CC was defending him 
How far is the verandah from the house ... that Dadaji, Babuji and UB could hear every word? No matter - finally a conversation overheard that gave the correct picture!
Was cute the way Dadaji tried to save face by couching his forgiveness in worry about his blanket ... Babuji is very happy. So is Kaumudi.

Manav throws a mini tantrum because Dadaji wasn't worried about him but his blanket. Chhanchhan explains to him it was face-saving, buddhu!!!

One cute ChhanMan scene to end the day ... Manav out of his sulks now that he's back in his bedroom with his beautiful biwi ...
Umaben always interrupts by asking if she's interrupting ... woman, newly married son and DIL in bedroom at night are not going to play Ludo! Yes, you ARE disturbing!
And Umaben has Chhanchhan's next task ready ... since CC emerged from the first one with flying colors, things need to step up ... so CC can make breakfast for Dadaji tomorrow.

Bombshell precap .. will CC find out about Umaben's planning tomorrow? So soon?

  1. Another good episode. It belonged to Manav and Dadaji. Their scenes were good and Manav again stands up for his wife.

    I like it when they show most members of the family, it gives it a nice feel of a family drama. Glad to see Mansi around.


    The surprise of today was Sanjana and Manthan...how cute are these two.

    So, Chhanchhan is close to figuring out UB's plan...this was unexpected, but I am ready for some drama.
