4/8 - Epi 156 ... Belief and Disbelief

Monday 4th August

Belief ... ours as well as Dhruv's :)

Disbelief ... Rudra, and everybody else.

Let's see who wins.

And Rukmini the blue titli is back. So Myrah has a connection with Paro for sure.

Episode update -

SuShaMo are okay in small doses, but they get boring in large ones. Episode started with Mohini pulling a fast one over Shatabdi in their achaar battle ... using Koel as the via media.

Rudra stands next to Paro's picture, and ponders the cruel irony of fate ... a lookalike of Paro, in the same town ... and she's already met both him and Dhruv ... no wonder Dhruv was so insistent he had met his mother.
Maithili tells him not to worry about Dhruv's misconception ... Rudra tells her that he almost made the same mistake as Dhruv. Neither of them even entertain the thought that it could be Paro ... after all, Rudra consigned her to the flames himself.
However Rudra did say that for a moment, he had a ray of hope ...

Dhruv overhears ... and confers with his confidante, Koel ... after ensuring her secrecy promise to him is not the same secrecy promise as the false ones she bestows on her mom and Dadi :)  Because he knows that's his mother .. otherwise how would she look like his mother, and why would she be in Udaipur?
And later that night, he tells Paro's picture the same thing ... Papa might not agree, but you and I know you're my mother. 

Myrah sends a video message to her fiance ... omitting the mandatory 'I love you' ... she's just not the type.
Just not the type ... or she can't say what she doesn't feel?

And she's is enchanted by a blue butterfly who flies in out of nowhere.
Rukmini is back ... which means a storm ... and Rudra ... are heading Myrah's/Paro's way.
And the Paro-Myrah connection is established ... Rukmini is only Paro's friend, no one else's.

So the first thing Rukmini leads Myrah to ... is Rudra's wallet.
And Myrah decides she needs to give it back ... hopefully this time Rudra won't run away again.
Interesting point ... Myrah didn't blink at Rudra's full name. It obviously didn't ring any bells.

Next morning, first a SuShaMo achaar drama ... this round to Mohini.

Then ... Dhruv sets off to find his mother ...
Back home, Rudra and rest of the Ranawats are in a tizzy ... till Koel admits that he went to find his 'mother'. So Rudra sets off after him ... after discovering that he can't find his wallet.

In the meantime, Dhruv gets splashed with mud on the way to find his 'mother'... is that why Myrah didn't recognise him as the child she met the previous day? Of course, the kid also had a face transplant in the interim, so can't really blame her.

So Myrah ... who is on the way to find Rudra and return his wallet, is stopped by a mud splattered Dhruv knocking at her car window, and mistakes him for a beggar ... and tries to give him biscuits, because he must be hungry, and while she won't give him money, she feels sorry for a hungry child.
And is of course misunderstood by a furious Rudra, riding up on his motorbike ... who shouts at her for misleading his child, and breaking his heart ... because she's a spoilt rich girl, so obviously she's heartless.

Unfortunately for him, Myrah not only looks like Paro, but she's equally feisty, in fact, much more so ... and a good deal more vocal. So she gives it back to him ... he has no right to make assumptions without knowing anything ... she was trying to help the child, because she thought he was hungry ...
Which gets Rudra even more angry at this slur on his parenting ... Dhruv is not a beggar child, neither is he hungry ... all he wanted was ... his mother 
But of course Rudra can't say what Dhruv really wanted ... so he tries to leave again ... Myrah is mystified, what does the child want then?
Dhruv looks at Paro's picture ... that's what he wants ...

Myrah isn't having Rudra's rudeness ... so she gives him another ticking off ... then,  forget it, she doesn't want to know any further. She does't know Rudra's history, neither does she want to know ... she's tried being nice, saying sorry ... oh and by the way, here's his wallet ... which he left behind, and she was on the way to find him to return it. He saved her the bother of finding him ... thanks for that.

Rudra left with nothing to say ... and no chance to say anything, even if he did :)

Myrah stalks off to her waiting car ... stumbles ... Dhruv points out to his father that a bike is roaring her way ... and Rudra pulls Myrah out of the way ... almost into his arms, much to their combined discomfiture.

Myrah pulls away with a muttered 'thanks' ... Dhruv smiles and tucks his precious picture back into his bag ... Rudra takes off with his son ... and Myrah looks at Dhruv as he stares back at her, a lost and slightly haunted look in her eyes ...

Precap ... Myrah meets Mohini ... this should be an interesting meeting.

    1. the new kid is not a patch on the original one. I am sure this kid is good actor, but the previous one was perfect as Paro's kid.

      Changing the kiddo was as wrong & weird as a watching a three piece suit guy riding a motorbike. Ugghh...

      Don't Ranavats have other cars?

      Ofcourse the Creative Team showed social responsibility by taking out the bling factor, couldn't have road accidents now could we ?

      Did you all notice how that other bike guy still seemed so disoriented by riding the bike on that big a road causing an almost (impossible) accident- Chammak Chaalu effect I guess..(Dunno what the male version of a Challo is, sorry)

      Rukmini is back.

      First it was sort of rustic love story.
      Now international love story?
      Progressing towards Sci-Fi.....Nothing else explains Rukmini:)

      Sorry caught the epi in bits & pieces, will look forward to all your takes, ignore mine:)

      Waisay, Dunno how Sanz does this,watching her as Myrah, it was as if I am watching a brand new show with no trace of Paro.

      Ashish needs to get a haircut so he can stop looking like uncleji and almost dad to Sanz here.

    2. Haircut and shave ... I don't like guys in suits with stubbles ... it just doesn't gel, and it seems to be the latest craze among the TV heroes ... all look dirty and unwashed! And yep, it makes Rudra look so much older than Paro ... he really looks like her uncleji!

      The new kid is not a patch on the old one ... the old one had the innocence and the sweetness of Paro, and seemed to connect better with Rudra also.

      Sanz is amazing ... what a transformation ... no trace of Paro, after playing her for seven months.

      Shwethu ... don't know if I mentioned it ... but SOOOOO GOOOODDDD to see you back!!! :)))

  2. HAILA !! When did this happen, ye Dhruv, Dhruv nahin raha, new kid? Why? What happened to the previous one? The golu, laddu sa previous Dhruv was so perfect, he had the innocent look his chemistry with the lead actors and his cousin was rocking and was not bad in the acting department either, the new one well he looks much older than 7 years! :-/ and compared to the previous one.....Meh.., I did not like the interaction between the kids today, it clearly looked like they were acting, hmmm, wrong move and wrong timings.

    Story wise looks like the makers are going to show some sort of connection between Myra and Paro alright,hey Dia and Madhu-mitha looks like you ladies were right too! ;-) even Rukmini appeared today, looks like even the butterfly has got longer life span than poor Paro and the dreaded thing is following Myra now!!! But looks like even it is trying to connect Myra and Rudra!!

    Dhruv is 100% sure that its his mother, he already thinks its a big secret between god and his 'mama' and I am sure he is going to continue working on his agenda :-)

    Sanaya consistently proves she is a good actress, the last scene today, in her interaction with Rudra, there was absolutely no trace of Paro whatsoever!! ;-0, it was as though she was actually interacting with Rudra the first time, you can see it in her eyes, also towards the end where he pulls her to safety and they end up hugging it was different unlike Paro-Rudra chemistry!! Wow she is GOOD :-))

  4. Today's episode is one of those episodes that makes me lose interest in the show. Not sure why! The new kid looks like a natkat kid than Paro's kid. Someone like a perfect partner in crime for a kid like Koyal. I am not sure about the characterization of Dhruv. But there is a vast difference in portrayal between the two. So, not sure who is more right in his act. But, I guess I will wait and see how he performs. I am sure he will be good. Btw, I like Koyal a lot. :) :)

    I have never seen any episodes of JDJ, just glimpses and promos. But looks like Ashish's JDJ costumes are far better than the ones he is made to wear in the show. His dresses in the off-screen photos look good. He looked good in tracks in the couple of scenes with Maithili and Dhruv. He looks best in kurtas and I am sure he will look good in semi-formals too. But suits?? May be suits would be suitable if Rudra becomes ASR. But he is not a businessman, he just runs a security agency. As far as I know, the Senior security officers of a company normally wear safari suits and the younger officers wear formals or semi-formals. Atleast that is what I have seen them wearing. They just dress like any other corporate employee. It is ok to wear a suit when he meets a client for the first time. But wearing it daily?? Despite wearing those boring, repetitive suits, Barun looked comparatively younger because of his slighter frame, but Ashish is one well-built guy. I wish the styling department does something about his look.

    The IF junta are complaining about the lack of chemistry between Ashish and Sanaya in the new getup. But I like it. I think this is how it should be. The awkwardness should be there between them until a connection between Paro and Myrah is properly established and Rudra should be aware of it too. Otherwise, it would be just like other regular soaps, where the hero falls for his biwi's hamshakal.
