Heart-warming & Heart-wrenching

Heart-warming because of how much Kesar loves Gulaal, because of how happy Gulaal was seeing her friends. I loved how they were introduced and how all 3 bonded. It all seemed very natural and GOD it felt good to see Gulaal so full of life. Best part? When she was writing down a recipe for this neighbour, her eyes were on the hopscotch her friends were playing. It was like a fun battle between the serious & responsible Gulaal and the old, childlike Gulaal...in this case the latter won! For me, I think todays episode goes down as one of the best because it was just so stress-free.

BUT at the same time, I found it silently heart-wrenching seeing Kesar convince Gulaal to play with her friends and not get so bummed out about the pati talk. It must be hurting him though he wouldn't show it now. He was the perfect husband today 😍

My fav. bit too! Manasi enacted that SO well...You could actually VISIBLY see the two Gulaals battling it out and finally the youthful, exuberant Gulaal breaks free! And I loved the bits after this also when she's telling her friends that she's never lost a challenge and no one can beat her and Kesar is watching all this in the bg and smiling fondly at her😆...He was like adorableee today!

Today really was one of the nicest, all round feel good epis of Gulaal...it's sooo nice indeed to see THIS Gulaal back...we've all missed her.

And Kesar showed so much maturity again today in the way he handled Gulaal's awkwardness and irritation regarding her friends teasing her with the pati-patni talk...she was such a CHILD there waise..."Jaao mujhe nahin khelna!"😆...Again there was a role reversal...he was the one with the patience and maturity today again...He understands her so well...and yes those are the poignant bits in the epi...

The friends are well cast...they acted well and they all three truly did look like childhood best friends...the camaraderie was bang on.

Her 'out out' 🤣 It was CUTE! She was the kid today while Kesar acted like the mature one out of the two. It works big time because she can't say no to this Kesar!☺️ Even in the precap 'Jao mujhe nahin jhulna' and her hand gestures were childlike!

I wasn't sure about the friends when I saw the SBS but they were perfectly casted I agree.

Does this mean we'll see Kesar pushing Gulaal on the jhula tomorrow?? *sigh*

LOL yeah her 'OUT OUT' was awesome🤣...She was totally in baccha mode there...and Kesar was watching all this with so much fondness...awww

Yeah Kesar is approaching her very logically and maturely on the entire issue and she really doesn't have any counterarguments...so she has to say yes ultimately😆

Ohhh I wonder if Gulaal is there yet to allow Kesar to push her on the jhula tomorrow...it would be a very nice moment if she agreed.

The friends are playing the perfect cupids unintentionally, aren't they?😆

Reema...It was truly happy happy situation...with Kesuda staying true to his promise to Poonamba..that he will give her daughter every happiness in these three months...and the way he is dealing with her mood swings and tantrums and childishness...Total role reversals...you know... It struck me that in kind of releasing her...He kind of released himself ad now is revealing in her happiness...Amazing change of equation👏

I'm totally posting, so more in that - but did you watch Gulaal? When her friends said Kesar ji had planned it? Dude she's out and out stumped on how to be happy without feeling that nag of a decade. And of course, it's all topped by the fact that Kesar understands, and does so much! She's cornered with what extents he will go to make her happy - and even more so because this is not Kesar the hubby's job, but Kesar, her Kesar's doing! I'm in love with the battling Gulaal - especially how the original beats the vintage more than once today - and I'm in love with how promising this inner battle looks, even with the precap.

Oh and need I even say? I'm in love Kesar - he's just... 😍 another deal altogether! For one of the rare times about a fictional character I fall for, I don't even need to ask - is he for real? Because he's real, as it gets!

Okay - this was supposed to be brief. I'm so brimming with all happy synonyms - I don't think my post will make much sense today between happy sighs and swoons ☺️

Yeah that bit was amazing...She was happy, you could tell but there was still a slight hesitation in her smile because the nag of the decade still stumps her somewhere like you said😆...what's more amusing to me is that it is the friends that break off the 'eyelock' so to speak since KG are exchanging this long look of understanding where Gulaal knows that HER Kesar did this...not as some kind of a 'husband' responsibility...but simply HER Kesar FOR her...so when the friends chime in with the teasing, and the moment breaks, that's when you see Gulaal trying to brush everything aside...she doesn't say a word to Kesar in front of them...but Kesar understands what this means to her😊

Hey Reemz loved what you said👏..heart warming and heart wrenching.😳..OMG I loved the expressions on the face of all the family members in the dining scene😉...Like Kesar quickly and excitedly said..that he will take the three of them..and then,,,,after looking at everyone's expression...Gave some silly arguements and MB still having that teasing look..and Jk and Sudha and raman...Lol..Finally maybe 2 moro Kes-gul scenes without Talli-the terrorist...OR as the wickedians would like to say...Yaron..kal Talli ..sar par nahi nachegi😆

A"feel good" episode!! I am keeping my fingers crossed that it does not build up to something ugly (I cant forget the spanking CVs gave us for nearly 8 weeks!).

Talli of course had to come and 'matha thekho' at the KG bedroom first thing in the morning. Thanks to Sudha for a Talli free KG scene...and to JK for setting the stage for Kesar! Fingers crossed that Talli and the prospective groom visiting the next day fall in love at first sight and elope in a couple of hours...the character still is obnoxious and distracting.

@ Piu...Wickedians would say!!! Champa sar chadh ke boli😆
