Welcome to Choti bahu..Daily reviews with Eva.. - Page 92

Yesterday I had the feeling that as Radh has fainted Dev personally will take care of her and he did and in doing so he will break the barrier of Radh's dilemma of Dev's rejection' It was done so beautifully that I am speechless.. and with some more incredible RadhDev moments.. could not ask for more.. love it... hope you will love as much as I did..

Dec 22nd

The episode start with Dev putting his hand on Radh's cheek trying to bring her to consciousness... all other people rushed toward them.. Dadima kept calling Radh's name. Dev says dadima I think her wounds are open I am going to take her inside. dadiji says yes and bending down Dev lifts her up and walks with long strides towards house' all others were running behind him' Dev looks so worried and concerned for his wife.. (Avinash did superb job transmitting these emotions.. He looked magnificent taking those long and firm strides carrying Rubina in his arms') Dev keeps on looking at her face.. He comes in the house without breaking his stride and starts climbing the stairs.. Mrinalni Vaishali and all others stops at the bottom of the stairs. Cahcha signals Mrinalini to make some comments.. Taking the advantage of the situation, mrinalni says poor Dev now he has two duties to full fill the duty of a husband and of a nurse. Stupid Deepika always have to open her big mouth.. She just is clueless. All this remarks makes Dev mad and mommy dear upset. She says Dev I will send a nurse.. Loved the way Dev said very vehemently.. No mom, I will do Radhika's dressing myself and he effortlessly carries Radhika up the remaining stairs. Chacha also pipes in saying now a Rajpurohit has to do all these too? But that's ok one has to do all these in the love. Vaishali is more distressed... Does that stupid understand that if you cannot take care the need of your family members than how can you take care of outsiders as RP? somebody needs to tell him that charity begins at home...

Dev walks in his room and puts Radh down on bed. Bending over her he smoothes her hair and says do not worry Radhika I will dress your wounds right away. He than turns and closes the door of their bedroom.. He keeps on looking at her worriedly.. Coming forward he looks deeply concern than he sees her stir a little and Radh slowly opens her eyes.. Dev sighs with a relief.. He says Radh because of all these activities your wounds are open and needs dressing.. Radh looks worried.. She ask for the nurse.. But Dev says.. Radhika I am your husband and to do all these is my responsibilities. Radh does not argue but sits up with Dev's help. Dev walks toward table to get first aid for dressing and Radh remembers the words of nurse in the hospital who said OMG she is burnt so much.. I do not think some one will marry her after looking at her like that.. Than she remember how she looked in the mirror when Vish showed her body. Than she remembers her own words to her mom that her in-laws got one burnt girl as a DIL..

All these thoughts were churning in her mind and she was dreading the moment Dev will look at her wounds. Dev opens her blouse from the back and saw an ugly bleeding burnt mark on her body. the first sight of that mark was total shock for Dev.. He just could not look further... he was as if frozen right there and than the tears starts falling from his eyes.. He could not sit there and he gets up walks out without a word wiping his tears and without looking at Radh.... Radh wanted to call him but stops herself felling totally helpless and looks at the Krishna idol as if hurt..

Dev had to leave the room with tears in his eyes. And Radh was watching him with her heart in her hand and as if it just broke in thousand pieces when she saw Dev walking out without a word wiping his tears. Feeling so sad and dejected and devastated she just sat there forlorn thinking that all her fear of rejection came true.. She sat there in total silence doing nothing except looking at Krishna's idol with hurtful eyes..

When Dev saw the wounds and could not see anymore and walked away with tears in his eyes I felt deep sadness washing over me' With Radh as if I felt the same rejection Radh was feeling' I was not ready to believe that Dev would walk out on Radh' I started thinking in my heart why would Dev do that '

It was so wonderful to see that during all what Dadima said, Dev did not say a word. He did not need to. He stood there silently digesting and understanding each valuable lesson his dadima was teaching him... His expressive face told about his thoughtful process. He understood, he digested the wisdom and than without a word he walked back to his room. Dadima stands there sadly thoughtful looking at his departing back.. (Really love Ritaji in this scene.... Superb and so natural.. the grave modulation of her voice was phenomenal.. loved her role so very much')

Dadima's advice was to give Radh little time to adjust but Dev knows what his Radh needed.. Dev knows more about Radh's heart than anybody else. Our magnificent Dev, he did not stop there. He came back to his Radh. He did not wanted to leave her alone in her pain and agony and low self esteem. He did not let his Radh alone.. He came in the room and closed the door. Saw her dejected figure sitting in the middle of the bed so lonely and silently crying. His heart was breaking looking at her like this... He as if wanted to engulf her and take away all her misery and pain. But without a word he came forward and knelt on the floor right in front of her. He did not sit with her on the bed to comfort her but He came in and knelt down before her he wanted to look in her eyes and let her see in his eyes and feel the love and truthfulness in them.

And Radh, she was totally broken she was afraid to look up and afraid that she will not find the love in his eyes, and afraid that she would not see the same expressions of adoration on his face. She did not care about anybody else but she did not want to see the rejection in his eyes and on the face of her Dev... her husband. Even that thought was so unbearable for her she felt as if her heart would explode with the sheer pain of it. She could not hold back her tears.. She hides her face in her arms and could not stop crying.. All her fear as if surfaced. she could not hide it any longer... she wails and tells him about what was troubling her all along... she could not hold back her fears.. She says tearfully.. You saw my burnt body and you walked away... you could not see my burnt body and you also closed your eyes.. And now you know that the Radhika you married is ugly. I am not the same Radhika you fell in love with..

Dev was watching her with tears in his eyes he could feel her anguish, he could feel her fears of rejection. He says tearfully, Yes radhika, it is true that I have seen your burnt body.. Radh does not look up.. Dev looks at her and says and I also closed my eyes looking at your wounds and I also left the room... Radh does not have a courage to look up.. Dev slowly says but not for the reasons you are thinking... that got Radh's attention.... She slowly lifts her head to look in to his teary eyes. He says because I could not bear the thought of this pain you are going through all these days and that also all alone. I feel very small inside. I could not understand the impact of your pain even though I love you so much.. Both of them were looking at each other and silently crying so much.. He felt so humble with her sufferings as he was kneeling there near the bed near her. He felt so overwhelmed with her agony that he could not bare the thought that in spite of all these physical barriers she kept on meeting the needs of the customs and ritual without a single protest. He was awestruck with her tolerance.

He than looks at her and tells her in his firm voice we love so much.. He says I will never turn away my face from your wounds. I will never leave you alone... Radh stares at him through her wet lashes.. Dev says I want to embrace all your sufferings... He says tearfully that I want to shower so much love on you that all your wounds may heal. And Radhika I have loved your heart, and that will make you the most beautiful person in the whole world. The hint of teary smile comes on Radh's face. Dev says I do not need anything Radhika.. I want to fulfill my responsibilities.. They look at each other.. They understood what the other was trying to say.. They trusted each other and they loved each other.. all other things faded in their love. Giving her the reassurance of his love and bringing the smile back on her teary face.. Dev stands up from the floor and walks back behind her to resume the dressing of her wounds...

This time Radh had no problem about her husband's reaction nor Dev had any reaction looking at this ugly wounds.. He cleaned the wounds while Radh sat there wincing once in a while but with a happy heart.. Dev felt concern and frowned but not worried about what Radh would think of it..

OMG..... this scene was done so beautifully and flawlessly that just steals your breath away... and you cry and smile with them.... Avinash was phenomenal expressing the feelings of helpless Dev who was not able to take away the pain of his beloved Radh... OMG he looks so adorable knelt down with tears rolling down his eyes thinking about the agony and pain Radh is going through... and Rubina, She was marvelous in expressing the dilemma of Radhika who did not wanted to see pity or dislike on her Dev's face... the tearful smile at the understanding was just beautiful.... My hats off to you Avinash and Rubina... You two are so wonderful.. I sometimes forget that I am watching the show..

After completing the dressing... Dev proceeds to take off her head ornament saying nothing should have any right to give you any pain. And these ornaments are making you more uncomfortable so they do not have any right to be on you and he takes off her earrings too. (Radh kind of feels sad'.) Than lovingly he says ok now close your eyes' Radh dutifully closes her eyes (looks so adorable sitting there with closed eyes) Dev gets up from the bed and brings the covered tray and stands in front of her smiling at her closed eyes. He says now please open your eyes' Radh slowly opens her eyes to see him standing in front of her with covered tray. she looks up him asking what is this? Dev says slowly.. today is your first night at your in-laws and like every bride you also want to be adorn with jewels for your husband isn't that? Radh could not fathom where all this leading she just looks at him. Dev says a bride should not be without ornaments' As with ornaments the bride looks prettier. Radh looks down....Dev says with a smile.. For that reason I have got you such ornaments that will not give you even a little pain. Radh in now totally intrigue. She looks at him in surprise.. saying that Dev slowly uncovers the tray to expose beautiful flowery ornaments..

The JA song In lamho ke daman mei starts playing in the back ground. And our Dev Raj Purohit starting to get his bride ready for the first night in her In-laws house by his own two hands and enjoying every moment of it. Even with such a big hand it was beautiful to watch Dev delicately putting the head ornaments on Radh's head adjusting the garland and string precisely on her head.. Radh looks at him sideways and smiles nicely. Dev looks at his handiwork and smiles. Next he puts on the earrings and lastly he puts the wrist ornaments and moves his fingers slowly to the length of Radh's hand making her blush. Than he ties the arm band on rahd's arm.. The more flowers he puts on Radh the more beautiful Radh looks and blushing even more and more and feeling happier each moment... and after adorning his bride Dev looks so happy to see his Radh smiiling shyly. Her shy and adorable smile back on her face..

Here newly weds find their happiness in such a simple little things but downstairs Mrinalini is trying to manipulate Vaishali regarding conducting some puja next day. Just to make Radh more sick or something.. she was walking with Vaishali and telling her that she has made all arrangements for Pandit and deepika will look after necessary things for puja.. Dadima was also walking upstairs parallel to them.. She was coming downstairs while this two reaches the base of the stairs. Mrinalini was still on that if you do not do the puja suppose to be done on next day than it is as if you did not do it.. Vaishali is totally taken in by that.. Dadima comes down and says than we will not do puja as there is nothing more important than CB's health. Vaishali tries to argue that she has already made arrangement but dadima overrules her saying CB is not well and we will do later. Vaishali starts whining that it is every mother's desire to have this puja for her next generation and she did not know that the CB will get sick now her little desire also will not be fulfilled. Dadima tires to pacify her saying do not feel bad about it sometime we need to change our decision per circumstances. And this is the decision of this time that there should not be any puja and there is no other way. Dadima orders everybody to go and rest.. Frustrated Mrinalini gives Vaishali a look.. Vaishali does not say a word but stands there thinking..

The next morning the sunlight streams through big window in DevRadh's bedroom.. They both are seated resting against the headboard both are sleeping. Dev is resting his head on the head board where Radh's head is on his shoulder.. what a beautiful sight to look them together like that..

With the sunlight started streaming in the room radh slowly wakes up and opens her eyes. Her gaze travels over them seated so close to each other and she smiles to herself blushing a little... than she slowly turns her face upward to look at the face of her husband...her eyes slowly moves upward and She looks at her husband who was sleeping so peacefully a slow tender smile lights her whole face. She could not resist herself and lifting her left hand slowly...she so delicately touches his cheek as if not to wake him up. He did not stir at all. Totally fascinated by that innocent sleeping face Radh now feeling little bit more confident and little more bold could not resist the urge to touch those luscious lips.. Fascinated by those lovely pink lips. She slowly moved her fingers across his cheek and delicately moves toward his luscious lips . Dev as if was waiting to kiss those fingers but kept his eyes close not to alarm her.. The moment they came closer on his lips with a fleeting touch he kissed them and opened his eyes with a smile and a twinkle in his eyes.. He looked down at blushing Radh. Caught unguarded she could not meet his laughing eyes and was trying to hide her face. But Dev will have none of that.. He loved the fact that Radhika was being bold with him and with a right of a wife was touching him. He slowly lifts her chin and looking in her eyes says.. Just this way Radhika I want to start my each day looking at you face. They were sitting on the bed so cozily with each other. Radh was leaning against him.. loved the look of it... Dev says this is our first morning in our house and I want to tell you this.. but sudden knock on the door does not let him finish his sentence. Radh says please go.. Before leaving the bed Dev makes her sit comfortably arranging the pillow behind her back.

Mother dear was standing at the door with puja tray.. Seeing his mom Dev gives her Pranam. Vaishali walks in... Radh tries to cover her head and stand up but Vaishali tells her not to.. She says this time how are you Choti bahu? She tells Dev to go away as he does not need to listen to the talk between SIL & MIL Smiling respectfully Dev leaves the room' The music indicates that she did not come with good intentions.. She reminds Radh about accident.. and says that she fears the future.. Radh so respectfully says please mother do not think like that. Vaishali says yea I should not but I am a mom and I tend to think those things.. She than talks about the puja she wanted to conduct but could not because of her health and she some how manipulates Radhika to attend puja as it was for them..

Finally Radh says no mother please do not cancel the puja. Puja should be done.. I will be down there for the puja.. Turning away from her Vaishali had conniving smile..

Precap: Amma is crying saying What did you do Vishakha...

I do not know why Vaishali is trying to do this puja and why Mrinalini is so keen to make all the arrangement for her. I am not really feeling comfortable with that smile of Vaishali.... and I do think that this puja for tomorrow is going to put Radh again in ill health and that might give Dev reason to to take her away from everything..

Eva, today's episode just blew me away...after a very long time i was finally satisfied with CB. i loved every scene of RaDev today...creatives did a superb job today portraying every emotion. Very well done episode. i could not get enough of the last scene, Radhika touching Dev's face and lips...it was just awww. AFter today, i am even more eager to watch Malaysia romance. i hope it's full of RaDev and romance. today brought back a big smile on face after all that crying and frowning for months. i hope creatives continue on this path...i'm sure their TRPs will sky rocket by keeping RaDev together.

Can't wait for next RaDev bedroom scene😉 it was so simple yet full of romance and innocence. i wonder if they hired someone new in their creative team to pull of something as beautiful as today.
