Hello,
Thank you for the post. Shwets, you delivered on time...👍🏼
A beautiful looking episode once again barring a rushed feel to the lead to their journey to the dargah!
Loved, just loved DD's expressions in that opening sequence when she watches RNJ sleeping. The love in her eyes was almost palpable!
Yashodha has clearly taken over as Cupid in RM's absence. Or she is a puppet with RM pulling the strings sitting in Swarna's maika! Got the feeling that it was the latter with the way the events transpired!
How angry did G get when she heard hubby dear give instructions for the debt to be settled. The previous day's events had given her hope! And she'd even gone to the trouble of making black coffee! All for nothing it seemed!
Poor RNJ didn't know what hit him. What a virago she was! Spitting like a cat and telling him off in no uncertain terms. But I didn't get the part about him putting up a facade. G dear, he had but an audience of one and that was you! Anyway, when angry, logic is the first thing that flies out of the window.
And that chandelier scene! It was actually quite funny! Like I imagined, she was indeed trying to save him the tips he would otherwise have to pay the servants! I actually laughed even though her eyes spit fire! Poor RNJ could hardly laugh! He pleaded, ordered and finally pulled the rope away from her. Only for her to stumble and hit her head! The knock to her head didn't seem serious enough for her to black out! Was it the pressure of the preceding events? Or was it some secret ingredient that RM might have gotten Yashodha to mix in G's morning cuppa? Will we ever know?!
Anyway, the doctor dutifully parroted what he'd been asked to or so it seemed. And then, Yashodha pointed RNJ towards the dargah!
It all happened so conveniently that I can't help smelling a rat, or should I say RM? She is determined to make RNJ accept G by hook or crook! Yashodha played the HMV (her master's voice in this case) record perfectly it seemed! Poor RNJ was so distraught and so bowed down by guilt and anguish that he was willing to do anything that was asked of him, anything to ensure that his wife was back on her pretty feet! I mean, it simply does not make sense otherwise. I am going to let this pass for now and hope for a revelation that RM via Yashodha had a hand in the whole thing. When she learnt that G was back on her feet in just one night, she just had to up the ante!
What followed was pure bliss for me! The dargah scene was beautifully staged and shot! Sid was just superlative in this portion. The anguish RNJ felt was written large on his face!
That interaction with the little angel in blue was nothing short of magical. The child looked truly angelic and RNJ's expressions were wonderfully spot on! It was an absolute awww moment!
Then when he lifted his wife up and she buried her face in the crook of his neck, that frisson of something, maybe his heart shifting place just a bit, was beautiful! It is such a pleasure to watch such a subtly and yet poignantly performed moment!
You can take the man out of the king but not the king out of the man! He tried his best to camouflage their identity by even calling her his wife but he could not help but assert his royal authority when he was asked to wait! See, these are the touches that make the difference!
Anyway, the baba had a dramatic entry and put the king in his place! He assured him that all would be well but asked him not to push for time frames. Babas are a bit like that, they are supposed to spurn authority, so it was fine that he was lecturing to the King! Would have been nicer if they had got an old, wizened man who actually looked spiritual! This Baba looked filmy and thug like!
And then, that blissful chaddar enveloping moment, when it was like time stood still and wrapped the two of them in its embrace. A moment when RNJ could get a sense of the profound!
RNJ will have to wait till the morning, and we the weekend, to know how this is going to play out!
Although the precap indicates a huge meltdown! What is going to bring it on? Whatever it maybe, I am glad! We are going to see Indravadhan finally, and he is going to break down in his Gayathri's arms! Rana Indravadhan Singh Deo and Rani Gayathri Devi can take a back seat!
Lovely!
