Iyam Akashavani thumhari pakhi vartha shruyantaam pravachika Shoomie...
Bitiya walks out of the bathroom in a kaftan ( hold your horses ladies this is still a prime time soap so kaftan is all you will get) picks up the milk and starts walking towards bitwa and bitwa with the "meri ijjat khathre me" expression tries to flee the scene with a pillow bitiya goes what do you think you are doing? Bitwa goes mei mei woh woh( if not bitiya then bitwa some body gotta do it this is still a desi soap remember) so bitiya goes dont worry I understand your pheelings lets give the relationship some breathing room, get to know each other etc etc. and jabardasti gives him the milk to hold looks around picks up couple of goliyon ( vetaamins shayad, sush FSOS stay quietly deep in the cerebrum this is DSOS's turf) bitwa exales a little ( not so fast bitwa) tries to drink the milk but eggjact time pe bitiya grabs the milk and gulps it down in one go ( way to go ladki desi soapland ke tamam auraten wait kar rahe the salon se ki aap jaise koyi aaye) Next bitiya goes this being the world series of desi soaps i.e suhag rath I've a gift for you and digs into her luggage and brings out the "evidence" maafi I meant marriage pic from 2 decades ago, rubs it on his nose turns around says good night and hits the sack. Now bitwa realizes he is in a soup so what does he do spends all night smoking trying to cook up a plan to send bitiya to mayaka ( fat chance mister)
Suraj nikla bitiya wakes up to smell of smoke, bitwa is in the bathroom shaving ( yes you read it right J no need for double take). Bitiya starts screaming aag, aag knocks/bangs on bathroom door calling anshuman, anshuman ( please to note the lack of soapland's commandment JI after the name) bitwa tries to ignore her( this I can relate to I'm sure my husband must have done the same dance in the bathroom a hundred times over the years thinking if he acts like he didnt hear me I might go away! Huh men!) anyhoo bitwa looses the battle comes out to find drapes on fire, bitiya trying to throw a FULL GLASS of water at the fire and the battalion of butlers standing in a row watching the show what does bitwa do pulls bitiya away NOW both of them standing there watching the show while the butlers are summoned to get the fire extinguisher. Whole battalion brings ONE fire extinguisher and bitwa puts the fire off heroically and yells ( hey cut him some slack it has been 8 days and remember this is desi soap still) the usual, things are precious here, if you dont know ask some one, I dont want any ruckus in the house etc etc AND NOW for the twist instead of glycerine fest and MU galore, bitiya smiles and goes no problem next time when I smoke I'll make sure I'm not near a window!! Bitwa bites the dust and walks away!
Next up enter the dragon ( I mean sister) bitiya makes delicious shudh desi breakfast with all the toppings and trimmings I mean THE GAJAR KI HALWA! Sister gives bitiya an earful in the likes of who eats sweets for breakfast to did you invite the whole village why so much food, he has a breakfast meeting anyway etc etc the good looking BIL tries to rescue bitiya a little. ( maafi thoda too descriptive ho raha hai isliye didnt mention some kitchen scenes with staff, in short territorial war between the bitiya on one side and sister, nanny/granny, head butler on the other side)
Next scene bitiya goes up to find the older butler getting bitwa ready ( literally the man puts the shirt, coat, keeps the watch display case open, gets the tie ready and puts it on bed) bitiya does a little self deprecation how she should have been more cognisant of the ways of this house etc etc( this is still a desi soap remember but, I gotta give it to bitiya not a tear quiet a remarkable feat considering today is day 8 super bowl(bidai) doesnt count) THEN she goes for the kill i.e doesnt lady dragon like me?? Bitwa tries to evade and walk out but then changes his mind and comes back in the mean time bitiya realizes bitwa forgot THE TIE so she runs out tada the customary bump, BG music followed by bitiya tying bitwa's tie ( nicely done!) bitwa relents and confesses look not only dragon lady but also mahji ( nanny/granny) dont like you if it is up to them you would have been back in chattisgarh like yesterday! NOW the soapland's standard ultimatum if Di is out I'm out too so if you want anything to do with me you have to "win over" di ( seriously whats up with bitwas and their dees?) fikar not bitiya goes I'll win her over just like I did with you BTW do you have any tips for me to do so? He goes I've an idea lets go. Both of them walk down where the dragon lady and co are waiting bitwa goes I want bitiya to take over the reigns of the house leading to a are you out of your mind speech from dragon lady. But the shatir dimag bitwa goes I have confidence in bitiya she can pull it off ( under the misguided belief that bitiya will falter and pack up) hands over 60 grand to run the house for a week. ( easy peesy bitiya in one of the 9 ghadiyan go to the nearest discount club buy cereal and skim milk in bulk and stick it to the city slickers I'm sure you can do it in a third of the money leaving enough for a mani, pedi and a MM saree every week! You go girl!)
Ithi varthah!
