You know, in all of this the thing that stands out the most is that it appears Manav and CC have forgotten that Mummy dearest once paid that stupid bloke to come to their wedding and spill the beans on his non-existent relationship with Chhanchhan. And the time she emotionally blackmailed her family while pretending to be on her deathbed. But I must admit, she's a very god manipulator. I used to think that Ranjana at least had some smarts, but no, show her a sari and her brain goes on a vacation. I guess, this must be the side effect of living with Manek of the anek bimaris. Very clever word play there, by the way.

You have a point ... they both seem to have forgotten Umaben's tricks ... maybe they think she has genuinely turned over a new leaf. She is definitely keeping up the appearance of a loving mom and MIL ...

I don't think the bloke took Umaben's name at all ... he blamed Thakkarbhai ... Umaben got off scot free.

Manek of the anek bimaris ... not my own ... copyright belongs to spirit 😆 she was having trouble sorting out the 4 M's 😆

lovely writeup as always!! love reading it... 🤗

ok am late..but then better late that never..

well the cutesy scene at the beginning was a little of a let down cz of having seen all of it on SBS (in fact a more fun and longer version as it was uncut)...i really should start following what I did during IPK days.. I used to download all the extra videos and put them on a folder with the date. then after 2 days later i will watch it. by then i have seen the original scene on TV!!

I mean i love that they r giving extra videos n the couple cz i am simply not interested to see any1 else other than San in it..

this way i get a cute load and no spoiling.. best of both worlds...

ok coming to the episode.. well u all think that UB covered all her bases...she indeed has upped her gave after understanding CC is not gonna fall for the usual dark age punishments...
the loophole i see is, Ranajana!

Ranjana is going along with every single thing that has caused CC trouble is to go to the wedding right?
But now CC thinking R is going mayka cz of her HM is cancelling the HM!!

Now by default after saying this openly she would be expecting R to stop!! hehe so in the end R is not going to be able to go to either her friend's wedding nor her mayka!!
now think of her reaction!! 😆

this is a tangled mess.. someone rightly said to cover 1 lie u have to say 100 others!!😛 let's wait n see..

hehe totally agree with u Dia!! hahahaha i wanted to strangle UB but still i was chortling when she said 'jee le apne zindagi!!' 🤣 i was doubled up laughing!! hahahahahha nautakani queen!!😆

n well meethi churi.. that is what she is..n that makes her very different from the rest of the MILs on TV.. but the thing is this one is actually not traditional or regressive! She just has a superiority complex and an ego the size of Himalaya and she is a bully (attacks the weak, but is afraid to expose thyself to one stronger than u)!
anyway the reason she has been reduced to react in this meethi churi manner is cz CC is different, she is no wall flower who will sit and cry or let alone that she will not even accept anything without asking 100 questions to measure the pros and cons!!

case in point - today UB said that Manav should not be told cz it was a women's thing. Now what did CC do? agree with a meek 'ji mummyji?'
nah! she said it was a problem of the family and they need to sort it much to UB's consternation! there is no way that this wife is going to keep anything hidden from her hubby! 😆

Anyway after seeing the TB video Manav is pissed off ..but whatever stunt CC is pulling off has got him well worried!! I think the relief of finding her well and sound and in one piece after the fright she gives him might make him forgive her lol.. anyway will see what this surprise is! If this is a celebration of the SR in the house itself, (with a locked door of course) I am all for it!! specially if it includes a total seduction scene!! and uninhibited seduction by San would be a delight to watch!! n CC is completely uninhibited when it comes to romancing the hubby in privacy..😆

So basically i see 1 of the 2 things happening
1. CC goes on HM with Manav & R goes to the wedding
2. Neither parties go..

now where does this leave UB? will R be happy when she learns this? will she keep her mouth shut now the carrot is being taken from her hands after being allowed to keep it in her hands for a while?
won't she in anger tell something?

hmm.. this is getting interesting...

Apt title for both epi and post ...

Supriya Pathak is an amazing actress ... she had me in splits even while I felt like strangling Umaben! Chhanchhan is a babe in the woods compared to Umaben! 👍🏼

Today is UB's day and i think she is the king for coming days too. She is expert in manipulating and using all the family members as pawns to get rid of CC from her house and manav. ranjana as puppet dancing to her MIL's tunes and thus making ub's game safer and easier. CC is so innocent that she is just getting stuck into her saasu maa's plan. hilarious or better say horror part was ranjana and manek's romance.

Its high time now parallel to chanman 's love story creatives should start showing chanchan's character growth and variations also.

At the rate, UB is going and if she has her way aided by the fact that CC is so terribly clueless 🤓about UB's machinations, CC will soon give up the suits and revert back to the sarees herself. R gave up on suits and now CC will cancel the HM.

That said, I feel like R will still do something silly and let her secret out! Lets see.

Spurred by all the eavesdropping shez been doing, R tries to tempt the hubby who still has his anek bimaris in mind. . His expressions were quite...🤣 At this rate, R will lose her mind...poor thing!.

As expected, manaoing UB for the HM was a cakewalk for Manav...she was all set for it as her next plan to counter it was already in place.

Not happy that the entire ChhanMan scene including the dialogues was given out in the offscreen segments...watching actors do retakes of such scenes and rehearsing dialogues just kills the charm of watching it onscreen.

So Diana was right...that was an invitation for Ranjana...bhagwan ne bhale ki shuruat is baar UB se hi ki...perfect timing for the invitation and UB uses it fully coupled with a loaned saree 😆 and a bonus maayka trip. Ranjana expectedly bites the bait.

🤣 With Manek's expressions when his wife was talking of romance. Wonder how they managed to have a kid. 😆

Naive CC on a guilt trip...cancels the honeymoon and faces hubby's anger. I could make out from yesterday's episode that the HM is not happening or atleast not soon.

Today's episode was again heavy duty saas bahu drama. I am wondering where this 30 day thing is heading. Is this the beginning of a crack in ChhanMan relationship or is it just for getting some roothna manana romance. I really hope they show some character growth now. Otherwise my fear that the show will regress into everyday kitchen politics where UB wins some and Chch some might come true.

Not yer watched the episode but seems like it was good.

Gosh I can't imagine Ranjana and Manek romancing, must be hilarious. 😆

I must give it to UB, she is one intelligent women. Love how she gets her way without looking evil. She sugar coats everything making the opposite person think that there is no one more nice than her. Lol

Seems like we'll have to wait for long before CC even starts to suspect UB and I feel UB will win more than she will lose. She is just plain evil and no body in the family even has an idea about it.

So HM will be cancelled and Manav baba will be upset. Waiting to see what CC will do to pacify him 😉

I love the way you name your titles and then analyze the episodes!!! 😃

I haven't watched the episode but the honeymoon cancelling part was expected!!! I think Supriyaji and Sanaya share the best saas/bahu chemistry!!! Their bond has taunts, humor, albeit love which will gradually grow!!!

I totally agree!!! Uma Ben is a total Nautanki 🤣 I just love the way Supriyaji has portrayed Ben's character. Sometimes I find her annoying, but more than that...Uma Ben is hilarious;y funny!!!

It will be fun to see how their bond shapes out after ChhanChhan finds out about her true self. Because ChhanChhan is someone who doesn't back out from a challenge and neither will Uma Ben!!! Just waiting for future episodes!!!

Awesome Take...Now I really wanna see the episode

Brilliant post. I am yet to see the episode but I can visually imagine how manipulative UB is.

Chhanchhan, when are you going to wake up to Umaben's manipulations?!

Never. Part because characterization fails to give indications to us when her character naturally would pick up such things and the other being the show would be finish if she finds out. 😆

Nonetheless, I sure hope they have a nice backstory to tie this all together. I am enjoying the party lines game compared to some tracks other shows employ.

All of the husband wife pairings are interesting. I really want to see more Manthan and Sanjana. 😛
