Warning...Going slightly tangential today.😉
Anyway so badi bahu who has recently got back the power to chew her food well before swallowing so that she does not suffer from any indigestion (wonder if this is the reason why Gopaldas pleaded to Radhika/kanha🤔) is convincing her recently acquired chaddhi dost that is Barkhu rani that Radhika/kanha is a ghost when her chaddhi dost hits on the brilliant idea that badi bahu should spread the news that Barkhu rani is possessed and hence all her actions from the beginning'she means from the Gita path day can be negated because the way she was acting will not be under her control since she has been controlled by someone else...Mother Padmu has got a very strict face and she is observing the two chaddhi dosts as a headmistress 🥱...and badi bahus chaddhi dost starts showing her newly acquired talent in Breakakali...oh this is a very special dance form and is a combination of kathakali and break dance. Mother Padmu...poor thing is now hyperventilating and is on the verge of cardiac and cerebral arrest'...🤪...and she wants to get doctors to cure her dill ki tukdi...Barkhu rani but badi bahu convinces her that that there is a bhooth......that too a very special bhooth with special dancing powers...under whose influence Barkhu rani is break dancing her way to packing her suitcase and leaving the house...🤪because you see all these dancing lessons have sapped her energy ...
Now Mother Padmu gets very agitated...and since she is on the verge of cardiac and cerebral attack..she runs to her security blanket'...yes poor poor Bholu......and tries to convince him that there is a bhooth under whose spell Barkhu rani has started to dance Breakakhali and she is dancing her way out of the house signing Sayonara Sayonara...mujhe mat roko sayonara..baukhlate aur na karte...mujhe Bhooth ne pakra hai sayonara...🤪... Poor Bholu who is nicely reclining in his bed is now extremely frustrated and exasperated at this newly acquired talent of Mother Padmu's dil ki tukdi Barkhu rani and grumbles...😆...ther is no spell and what should I do...she only said that she will leave if she has said anything wrong...which further raises Mother Padmu's blood pressure and her heart starts going Boom Boom and whatever grey cells she has in her head goes dhoom pichak dhoom'😆'...(by the way Bholu I know you are getting frustrated with all these daily nautankis of Barkhu rani but isn't she the RPtian...have you thought about how you will tackle this issue...I don't have any problem regarding her going away...Radhika had nowhere to go but Barkhu has somewhere to go...you didn't care about Radhika because according to you she did not think about others...you are fed up now because again you think this time Barkha has brought the family name down'...but then what is the difference in you? I liked the frustration and exasperation but should not one try to get to know what exactly is the reason?...I mean why suddenly she is saying she is being possessed just when she is supposed to leave )...Anyway liked Avinash's expression here...his tone showed that he is fed up with all this...then Mother Padmu continues that you cannot say this...my security blanket...oops sorry Dev (oye what my Dev'😡...Padmu when you want something from him he becomes your Dev😳) ..and nor can a RP say this (well she is right here...without getting to know the real truth as a RP Dev has to take a step back here)...and that Barkhu rani needs their help...and dai gives an irritated look at Mother Padmu.
Now everybody comes and stands to attention so that badi bahus chadhi dost that is Barkhu rani can take the centre stage and show her specially acquired skills in Breakakhali...😳...Barkhu rani's eyes fall on Bholu and she starts that because of her actions Dev is angry with her and does not believe her and Dev gives an irritated look and says that how can he negate what his ears have heard and his eyes have seen...(ahha...so yesterday Dev decided to judge Barkha on her actions ...and Barkha continues that she cannot remember anything'...Bholu will you ever think why is she so worried that you are judging her based on her actions and why is she trying to negate those actions based on the notion that she has been possessed)...Radhika comes in and also calmly observes all this...and then Barkhu rani's special performance in break dance combined with kathakali starts'🤔...everyone is bamboozled by this special performance and Radhika/kanha heaves a big sigh as if saying to herself again nautanki'😆..Dev is observing Barkhu rani as if she is some strange extraterrestrial specimen...😆...Padmu is on the verge of breaking in to tears on seeing this dukhbhari kahani of Barku rani'😳.then a special dance sequence...Barkhu rani starts hitting her head against a pillar (by the way is she dancing to Michael Jacksons...I am Bad song?🤔)...Badi bahu raises her eyebrows and his highly amused...Mother Padmu runs to Barkhu rani..but gets stopped by badi bahu (wonder whether badi bahu might want Barkha to hit her head few more times'🤔..) but she tells Mother Padmu that there is a bhooth in Barkhu rani and Mother Padmu runs to save her dil ki tukri from further head damage...😳...but her dil ki tukri showing her expertise in this newly acquired dance form shows he next step and that is to push Padmu who goes moon walking backwards and falls on her son's...🤪...Rohans arm who is not her dill ka tukda anymore...😭😭...and then Barkhu rani says see I have forgotten everything...I am bad bad I have to say bye bye now...and is on the verge of singing So Long Farewell it is time to say Good bye.🤪.and Mother Padmu looks at her security blanket and says stop her please...then Barkhu rani looks at Radhika/kanha and says that I have harmed you, don't forgive me please...and that she does not remember what she has done to Radhika (Badi bahu raises her eyebrow and Rohan is giving his piercing look😆😆)...and Barkhurani turns to leave...Mother Padmu throws tantrum...and Bholu heaves a big sigh and gives up and tells Barkhu rani to stop......dai glares at Bholu...Barkhu smiles in victory (arreh uffo he did not stop you because he does not want you to leave...he stopped you because Padma was having a tantrum)...Radhika/kanha is now raising her head to see what is Barkhu ranis's next step...😆😆...Barkhu rani further continues that how can she face Radhika...and Mother Padmu's next tantrum...now aimed at Radhika /kanha that she should make Barkha understand (Padma is really desperate to not believe that Barkha can be wrong...she is pleading with Dev and Radhika...because it affects her standing in this family since she equates herself with barkha'...she never pleaded regarding Radhika before'...because Radhika is chaya to her)... Radhika/kanha smiles and says yes how can she leave (Dev and Rohan both looking at her)'...and continues that when Radhika asked for forgiveness Barkha did not forgive her so why should Radhika forgive her but Radhika knows that Barkha is sick mentally...so she should stay...(Dev smiles at Radhika and so does Padma)...Barkha smiles most probably thinking that she has hoodwinked Radhika ...but she did not realize that Radhika /kanha cleverly increased the respect for Radhika in Dev's eyes...Padma I am not too sure...she showed that although in similar circumstances Barkha did not forgive but Radhika can...so Radhika has no malice in her against Barkha......and Barkhu rani faints and Dev takes her to her room... Radhika /kanha and Balram have a silent talk where Radhika says that she had to stop Barkha because of Padmu...and then smiles when Balram says that but Barkhu has got what she wanted...Mohini darling is observing all this and she quips at her mother in law that you said that Radhika is the bhooth but it looks like Barkhu rani is the bhooth...
Then in the room Barkha asks for forgiveness from Bholu who wants to avoid the topic and his expressions show that he wants to leave the room as quickly as possible...😆....then she catches hold of Dev's hand and Dev basically growls and glares at her...and she leaves his hand..he turns to leave and she asks him to stay back because she is feeling scared and Radhika walks in and tells Bholu you go and I will stay and smiles at Barkhu who protests that she does not want Radhika because she might harm Radhika...Dev hesitantly says ok 😆😆😆but Radhika says no she is fine. Whatever harm Barkha had to do to Radhika he has done it'...and Dev starts running😆 but before leaving he turns and tells Radhika to take care of herself and to call for him whenever she needs help ...😆😆...and Barkhu rani preens and says look look I stayed back and Dev cares for me (she is hallucinating even without any illusions'...Dev asked her to stay back because of Padma and told Radhika to take care of herself'..not Barkha)...and Radhika points it out to her that it was Radhika that Dev was worried about...and then tell Barkhu to remember that God is there who sees and knows everything (ahh so Kanha was teasing Balram when he said that he cannot see in the darkness of Barkha's mind)...
Wonder whether Radhika/kanha is driving Dev to trust his instincts...his gut reaction...anyway that's for later..Also wondering that has Barkha realised that if she keeps on doing wrong things and blames it on being possessed and then gets taken to a baba...if outside people get to know about this that she is possessed where will her credibility be as a RPtian?
Anyway, big thanks to Avinash and Rubina...it was Avinasha's natural expression and reactions to everything happening around Dev that had me giggling away which was perfectly balanced by Rubinas sarcastic and mocking looks as Radhika/kanha...special mention to Pragati Mehra and her art of raising her eyebrows sarcastically at the right time'...Mohini and her special quip...So todays episode belonged to Avinash and Rubina although they hardly had any dialogues. Wonder why do the makers think that Padma's tantrum and Benaf's horrible over the top nautanki (sorry can't even call it acting) will interest the audience and how long will this go on...
