Caps batch 1:


Gulaal is almost amused at him

Exactly! I think there is a flickering nano second of debate to feeling hurt by his curt manner, but she takes no time brushing it off as elemental Kesar - nakhre karke bada na banta fire, to Kesuda kaisa! 😆



Sirf Rohan? <--- this was classic! Kesar is such a boy when he chooses to remain tight lipped and strictly gauging only, but can't help butt in with his in your face statements! Matlab, ghuma firaakar baat karna to aata hi nahi, bas seedhe de maaro! 😆 The 'aur tu' in that sense, is something atypical and unique of Kesar. When we've seen those countless couples where this 'and you' moment goes unspoken - sometimes in a cheesy way, sometimes in poignant ways - Kesar will say it, just like that.

Ofcourse not...Gulaal has to list out the rest of the family in sequence...MB, PB, Reva, Devika, Talli, the cows...:P

(include Talli in the cows. For good measure. Her smiles in the Puja made me gag, I'm not even kidding - but Reemz gets to deal with that part tomorrow 😆 )

And she transitions to that "dhatt" to make it a bit flippant but you can see her hurt shining in her eyes

I LOVE this cap! Mansi is phenomenal here - one of her best sulky/admonishing looks ever! She is a kid and an adult all at once!


I find this bit fascinating for how closely Kesar is watching every expression on her face as she doesn't look at him for a bit and turns away but still you can sense how closely he's listening to every cadence in her tone almost as if he can SEE the tears even as she tries to hide them... <---- 👏 Word Nur!

And awww! I love this one! I love the way he can't help that hint of a smile and her in vain discrete wiping of tear! This is truly an early rare glimpse of the Kesar we will see much later - where he has an edge over Gulaal. Just for this second - he's that Kesar from post reform times, when he could sense and tell the slightest variation in Gulaal, know her subtlest nuances like the back of his hand! I like to think there is a fond emotion to this hint of expression on his face - again, like the Kesar we see in post reform time.

And Gulaal's fumbles and fidgeting - new traits from this decade that he has not seen her. He could have read 'suspicion' into her 'nervous' gestures, but I think for the seconds that her back is on him, he's only feeling fond - and continues to be studying of her slightest changes of course!

I love the expression he gives everytime she touches him! 😛
And how he gets pissed when she tells him 'Zimmedari saup ke jo gaya tha'!
And I will kill Talli! 😡 And Gulaal for making her sit with them!

@JZephyr Well written post and great caps Nureat! 😊

Oh she just has to - Kesar is really the only person in her life she sulks with! And when you compare that with the original Gulaal Vasant met, who could sulk right left center and throw her weight around and what not - as Srushti said, she loved herself tons! 😆 The entire I-me-myself assurance she held about herself so strongly has been replaced by this nature where she puts herself last, every where, for everything. And amazingly, Kesar - who is so set out at this point to serve her ace after ace of pain, can innately not deal with Gulaal being last. The 'special' treatment is always reserved for Gulaal - good and bad.

Nur - I love your captions - always 🤣 LOL thanks, Jzee! The hands off my stuff and kisi ki cheezein like I said in my post unexceptionally sets me off grinning and shaking head at Kesar! I think he does it ever more so cuz of his guilt conscience over the letters...They're his guilty little secret that he hides from the world and ESPECIALLY from Gulaal...how can he ever let her know just HOW much he too has suffered in all these years being away from her? So he too I feel masks with that almost kiddish tantrum of 'don't touch my stuff'...but he's honestly trying to find his own balance in some form around her it seems..... He's a kid even when he's pulling the scare bomb! But for the fire flashing in his eyes every instance now and then - his temper and mood is easy to trace back to his kid version! Some things never change 😆 LOL true...that GUSSA was very much a part of his personality since day one...I mean how can we forget that he greeted Gulaal by throwing a stone at her head?😆

Again when he comes down wearing the different Kurta and utters words like he is mature enough to make his own decisions, it's him trying to say that he's really not her responsibility..she doesn't need to take the effort to do anything for him..which is again a lovely contrast to what we will get to see many days later of him wanting her to take charge, arrange his room and give him that attention..I agree...they show these contrasts so beautifully and now having experienced the entire story, going back and watching it makes you see everything from a broader perspective...at this point, he is shunning her and taking every chance he can to take swipes at her and trying to show that he is a grown mature individual making his own decisions...which yes ofcourse he is on one level...but as always there is a whole another level to him when Gulaal is in question...that level will always and only crave her attention, her love, her approval...and ultimately I think it was an inevitability...he tries very hard to hold on to his anger, his hurt...but sooner or later he has to give in...he hurts himself ever more so each time he hurts her...he is the one sitting and crying pouring over his letters then, he is the one bringing her imlis then, putting bangles at her bedside at night...I love how all these moments were so beautifully woven into the storyline with each phase.


Nur...the Talli dream was cringeworthy.. thankfully we have a wonderful GK scene with the morchang(?) to erase the bad memories.. and yep she was a total bimbo...even in yesterday's scene..while everyone around were taken aback by Kesar's words and the coin toss thing..here she was randomly smiling away..Talli's dream *gags*...uska level toh wohi hai...the GK morchan/morchang/however it's spelled😆 scene was classic...honestly aur kisi ka toh mujhe pata nahin but GK don't really need those kind of "close" scenes...their morchan scene or rather we could say scenes...that came into play in the penultimate epi as well when he leaves it with her...those scenes are just on another emotive plane...Talli is a candyfloss bimbo and her dreams are such at that point...sometimes I would love to blame Gulaal as well for putting such ideas in Talli's head cuz the woman can be MEGA CHEESY when it comes to feeding the romantic fantasies of other ppl...I remember how she was talking to Talli the morning after Talli's wedding to Kunal😆...such cheesy dialogues...Kunal ji ki tujhe pyar mein bhigo denge or something...weird stuff😆

Anyways, more on that in tomorrow's pooja scene post I guess...but yeah seriously Talli was smiling so VAPIDLY in many places...top floor ekdum khaali hai bandi ki😆

Fivray!🤗🤗🤗 I miss youuu! :((

It's ok yaar...the beauty of this show is that you can pick it up from any point anytime you want to...so watch when you have time.

Currently I'm jumping around all over the timeline myself...LOL...I'm watching these initial scenes to do caps for these posts and then I'm randomly watching the June phase and also other scenes that Zainu was watching during her catch-up session...and no joke...EVERY point in the story is so brilliant...you can feel and understand the viewpoint of the characters at every point in time...you can feel their emotions so deeply...these actors are just something else.
