hey guys 😊

i noe this is a long post but please take some time and read it 😊

after yesterday's episode, many of you are calling gulaal "stone-hearted" or "cold" or "mean" or whatever..but if you look at it from her point of view, i think you might understand where she's coming from.

kesar is her husband's younger brother, and although we want kes-gul to be together, because we are the audience, and WE KNOW that kes-gul are meant to be together..but GULAAL DOES NOT know that yet! the directors are creating dramatic irony here, and very successfully so.

Many of you are saying that kesar is a grown man now, gulaal should see him differently. if she did, then this show would be extremely unrealistic. the age difference they had when vasant was alive is still the same. the relationship they shared is still the same for gulaal, because unlike kesar, gulaal was a married woman; she was very happily married to her husband, who loved her immensely! it is not easy to forget/get over that kind of pure love. vasant was gulaal's first love, like gulaal is kesar's first love! as we already know that kesar is not going to get over gulaal even after marrying talli, in the same way gulaal has not gotten over vasant even after marrying kesar!

yesterday;s episode according to me was stunningly mind-blowing. it was completely gulaal and kesar centered, and that is something ive been hoping for a LONG time. both the actors in yesterday's episode out-done themselves. their range of expressions from anger to love to guilt to confusion everything was outstanding!👏 seriously i know there is not much chance of this but neil and mansi both deserve some awards for this..but as we all know the crappy jodis from ektaa's shows or rajan shahi's shows takes up all of the awards

i dont think anyone should lose hope over gulaal. no episode disappoints. its high on drama and emotion, and EVERYONE CAN ACT! i think many of us are hating on gulaal because we are crazy fanatic kes-gul fans! ..but gulaal is in fact possibly the strongest indian female character.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 ! yes i totattly agree your point we are hating gulaal becoz we have seen kesar in pain and in anger and gulaal has never poured her heart out ...and she is damm right kesar has no right on her (ok now dont ask me who am i and what has happened to me)
common see from gulaal angle she never knew kesar had heard her ...all she knew kesar has developed hatred felling all of sudden we all have seen how much gulaal carved for kesar she keep on writing letters to kesar but it was kesar who never replied but still she wrote...it was gulaal who continuosly insisted to meet kesar we can see how much pain she had in her eyes she always wanted to share her happiness her lonileness her feelings with kesar but it was kesar who keep avoiding her...he was not ready to meet the person who is living for him only... after vasant isnt kesar her whole world that world has ditched her...what will be expect from her will she not become ice maiden...didnt kesar promised to always be with her ...did he kept his promise...he should have guts to question her he did 10 years back gulaal had answered him but no he kept his question within himself and returned with hatred and anger for gulaal...a person who is eagerly waiing for her kesar her world her happiness to return to her...but what did he do he remained hostile towards her so what she should do she has to go back to her cocoon...ofcourse gulaal is lonely infront of kesar gulaal is crying wen kesar is there still she is crying and she is in pain ...so y kesar has right on her...she is correct.. kesar has no right on her

You are absolutely right about gulaal's feeelings... and i totally respect how she must have felt after her husband died.. but to me hating gulaal is because she takes talli's side alot. That is the thing i dont like about gulaal. I mean she doesnt even understands kesar's pain, why she have to force talli on him. I dont say that gulaal should realize her love, i know it will be too early, because first she would have to feel her real feelings for kesar which will take a little more time, but she shouldnt just force talli or any body on kesar just bcause she has promised..I just think that even though she is not ready to accept kesar, she shouldnt force him to do antthing that hurt him. i mean she doesnt even listen to him..😭
But yeah.. kesar is planning something out and that might be the realization of gul's love for kesu!!! lets hope they clear their misunderstanding soon!!😊

If you all are saying that Kesar has no right on Gulaal, and cannot ask her any questions, then who gave her the right to make decisions on Kesar's behalf by fixing his marriage with Talli. I am astonished at Gulaal even after Kesar's declaration yesterday that he knows his Vasant Ba was murdered by Dushyant Ba...not once has Gulaal even bothered to sit and analyze as to how Kesar came to know of this and what hell he has beeen living through these past years...and she thinks she knows and understands Kesar very well. All she is bothered abou is clarifying her stand maine jo bhi kiya sahi kiya, but does not even once sit down and explain to Kesar why she took such a major decision to forgive Dushyant.
Sorry Gulaal fans but she has bought this upon herself.

Kesar yesterday pleaded with her please answer me and put me out of my misery, but miss mahaanta thinks she is answerable to no one. If Vasant was her husband, then he was a dear brother to Kesar and a loving son to Motaba and Panba. It has still not even struck her even once also that may be what she did was wrong, even when Kesar says "ye sahi nahin hain". all that she is bent on proving is that she is right.

@ arti didnt kesar promised to always be with her ...did he kept his promise...he should have guts to question her he did 10 years back gulaal had answered him but no he kept his question within himself and returned with hatred and anger for gulaal...a person who is eagerly waiing for her kesar her world her happiness to return to her...but what did he do he remained hostile towards her so what she should do she has to go back to her cocoon...ofcourse gulaal is lonely infront of kesar gulaal is crying wen kesar is there still she is crying and she is in pain ...so y kesar has right on her...she is correct.. kesar has no right on her

@arti yes Kesar promised to be with her and she in turn promised Vasant that she will take care of Kesar no matter what .!!!!. 10 years back there was no way Kesar could have questioned her, he was still a child ...how can u even expect that from Kesar at that time. Yes the resentment grew over the years but even after Kesar came back he did not initially pay importance to her...but you are forgetting one very important thing here...who made the step forward to close the gap between them it was Kesar...and slowly he has been trying to mend fences with her. He has done everything in his capacity to mend relationships but that is not easy when you end up banging your head against a brick wall. If Kesar did not love or care for Gulaal and her respect believe me Dushyant's truth would have been out long back and Kesar would not have suffred so much keeping these questions bottled up in himself. It was only his love and respect for Gulaal till now that has not made him blurt out the truth to anyone. Arti dont forget the equation here Gulaal has always been older and mature than Kesar. OK In today's episode there is one question why do you think Gulaal went running to Motaba immediately once her confrontation with Kesar was over. She wanted to tell Motaba something right...the truth of Vasant's death...why ??? such a hasty decision so soon, because she thought Kesar will tell Motaba everything and did not want to loose face in front of family, so if she tells Motaba from her side, she can make herself the mahaan person that she is and how she sacrificed and why she hid from everyone blah..blah,,etc.

You know why I feel pity for Gulaal she has not even understood Kesar at all...Kesar has known all along and kept quiet so why would he go and tell Motaba now. Gulaal in my opinion has lost her connect with Kesar, she only claims her right on him but does not understand him. Her brain is too full of Talli nonsense.😆
Point of Post: If Kesar has no right on Gulaal then even Gulaal does not.😃 but dont all of us know Kes-Gul are meant to be together😆 no matter what their egos.

This was something I had put up elsewhere. Thought would add it here.
What is annoying me is that Gulaal knew that something bothered Kesar. Yesterday she finally knew the reason for his behavior and hatred that he all along knew that Vasant was killed by Dushyant. Repeatedly Kesar has told her that few questions are bothering him and yesterday at the lake side, he said everything to the extent that these questions dont allow him to live.
After all this, Gulaal doesn't care once to speak to him or sit down with him. Forget about sitting down with him. She was never seen to be even feeling a little bit of remorse over the fact that Kesar knew about Vasant's murder all these years and if she really cared for him, she would have at least once cried out to herself wondering how a young Kesar would have put up with this trauma all these years. And more so after Kesar telling her that he did have his own reasons for the "kadvahat" she mentioned.
But NO, she is happy about Kesar's decision to marry and also goes into the happy mode of teasing Talli over the so called marriage.
It wouldn't take an intelligent woman like Gulaal to put all the pieces together given the facts that
1. Kesar refused to meet her for 10 years
2. Kesar came back on day 1, he mentions along the lines of "Tu jhooti aur tere man mei paap"
3.His general behavior with Dushyant even during Janeyu of Rohan.
4. His reaction when he learnt about Gulaal organising the birthday for Dushyant
5.Kesar saying"meri wajah hai for my behavior, after he saves Gulaal from drowning..
6.Reaction to Dushyant as Sarpanch.
Obviously points 1-5 will make any intelligent woman come to the decision that Kesar had been living with this truth for the past 10 years.
Had it been only about Dushyant as sarpanch, we may think that Kesar learnt about it after coming home. But not the other reasons.
I undertand Lennie that Gulaal is not absolutely flawed, neither is Kesar.
When it is being pointed out that these incidents are enough for any normal person to understand the situations, it is a dig at the writers who seems to have forgotten that they have portrayed Gulaal as intelligent.
Defending Gulaal that she doesn't know about Kesar knowing it for 10 years is a weak point. If the character Gulaal were real, we can give such a benefit of doubt to Gulaal.
Here when I say this, I am pointing out the blunder that the CVs are making in maintaining the detail and essence of Gulaal's character.

@kashishmalia & @MeySimi :

i agree with you about the fact that gulaal has NO right at all to decide who will marry kesar..and that too when she knows that kesar does not feel the same way about her.

frankly speaking, yesterday's episode was really disappointing for me too because of how gulaal reacted to kesar's decision to marry talli. she was acting like it was normal for someone to say 'no i cant even think about it' to 'i wanna marry her'. it was kinda confusing how gulaal didnt realise the sarcasm and hate in his voice..😕

i also dont get how kesar could be SO inconsiderate towards talli! 😡

im not saying gulaal does no wrong ever..im just saying she makes mistakes bcoz she is a human being..and we never get to see her hidden feelings, like we get to see kesar's.

she just said he had "no hakk" on her, because she was freaked out by the fact that he might like her! but yes, she was kinda selfish in giving false hopes to talli..
