IKRS Saturday 7th May 2016 ep 240 My Take ~ These righteous sinners!! Within our lifetime we come across a variety of personalities some strong others weak, some honest others not so , some industrious others indolent, some upright others devious, some valiant others, cowards, some accepting others unforgiving.. and the list of an admixture of personas goes on and on. The episode today hones in on such characters who claim strict adherence to a set faith and traditions surrounding it.They read sacred scriptures, but the day to day practices of their lives shows gross discrepancies in what the scripture actually states and what they preach through their actions.
Inherently truthful and upright Dhani in sheer panic relates to the devious Kamini the incident where she ran ,tripped eventually! but was exposed by the beamers of a car! In her hasty getaway she had dropped her jhumka !Now the owner of the car, judge Asthana has turned up to return the jhumka but the thing that baffles Dhani is why didn't he tell the truth that he saw her outside, going somewhere in the night? It didn't take the scheming Kamini that long to gather some foul play. Cleverly she handles Dhani first ,calms her down, asks her to remove the single jhumka and gives her another new pair of jhumkas to put on. Dhani panics what would she have done, if he had said he saw her going somewhere? Dhani refuses to go to night school on her own. Then Kamini , conniving tries her hand in further buying Dhani s blind trust. But Dhani is adamant , one day this lie of hers, going to the night school with come to the surface. Kamini wants to ascertain, how firmly Dhani can uphold her lie, so she suggests, Dhani can tell everybody the truth! no use lugging so much stress as she won't be able to concentrate on her studies. shows the simpleton Dhani support, but adds in, as far as her studying is concerned that will be done.. she's not to worry ,as whatever happens it's for good! she emotionally blackmails Dhani , then coerces Dhani to go with her and tell everyone the truth! and just as she predicts, Dhani gives in and says , no wait a while, her revision will be disrupted and viplav's surprise too will be ruined . Then furthermore, Kamini reminds Dhani when she got kidnapped by the goons ,had she wanted ,she could have fled, but she chose to stay for her sake! Then how both of them together fought the rascals! Kamini plays on Dhani's noble sentiments of friendship, whatever happens now they will tackle problems together like best friends ! But plays it by ear when a fretful Dhani asks about the judge's issue.. with a sneaky look on her face she assures Dhani. leave him to her ,she'll handle him!
Dashrant out to prove his clout to his Bua, even though the old battle axe has cut him off his inheritance. Sita temple project is lauded as the judge comments ,new about its construction far and near! Bua comes in blank about Dashrant's new venture.. he briefs her , he making it for the betterment of the widows. Kanak receives the news with disdain .Dashrant continues to spite Bua! He will also talk abut widows rights after the inauguration ceremony tomorrow!judge praises Viplav for actually marrying a widow. Viplav confesses he is blessed because a cultured and decent girl like Dhani actually consented to marrying him. The self professed righteous Bua and Kanak both commit the sin of loathing the very existence of the vulnerable Dhani, hating the notion of having to put up with a jinxed girl who was a widow! judge agrees Viplav indeed is blessed to find an exceptionally rare girl...the judge leaves. Bua retires to rest and Viplav takes her as he too has some chore to sort out. Kanak rants at Dashrant and exposes this so called righteous man's sin of hypocrisy not to mention ego ! Since when has he started to devote his life towards the betterment of widows? the so called Machiavellian once high priest comments revengefully! It was important to prove his point to Bua that he may not hold the rank an position, but his name still holds enough clout around Banaras! She snatched his power ,title, everything! But he still commands respect in Banaras!
Like recognizes like.. Kamini blocks the judge's and he has to has to do an emergency brake! forces her way into his car! and points out his bumping into Dhani yesterday and her today , indicate something.. he wants to know what she has in mind.. firstly she confirms the jhumkas are Dhani's to which he says yes and next she wants to know why he didn't tell the family the whole truth ..Kamini wants to confirm how much he actually knows and he slyly comments, tells her exactly what shrewd Kamini aims to find out ,that what was the Tirpathi bhau doing outside at that hour of the night?than she cleverly tells him he's the judge he comes across such cases all the time ,especially ones under cover of darkness ,so the least said about it the better...then she says she's here to thank him on Dhani's behalf! But insists why he didn't tell the truth and he replies , so that a renowned families respectability is untarnished! It's for every one's benefit , who knows might benefit him in some way too? he says he's pleased to make her acquaintance ..and Kamini smiles and slides out of the car and drives away .kamini throws Dhani's jhumka's ,her virtuous image! up in the air and then catches it in her palm! So Dhani s respect really is now in her grip! and she smiles ,the judge turned out to be a useful man for her! thus more ammunition in her hands to expel Dhani out of Viplav's life forKamini.. slowly she overtakes Dhani...
Viplav gives Kamini had copy of her application form, Bua is praying before Lord Shiva when the news is give, blessings are sought and dhani too wafts by want to know what's happening? Elated Kamini tells about the arrival of papers, and wants to celebrate by eating out Chinese food , vilplav too loves the idea although Dhani says she cooked a meal.. but still Kamini wants to eat out. happily Viplav invites Bua out to but she rejects the idea as restaurants don't cater to the likes of her who only eat pure vegetation food , he tells Bua eateries in this day and age all have provisions for vege meals. Bua agrees!dhani too moves but is snubbed by Bua where does she think she going ,stay back ans serve the family by the food she has made,but viplav makes it clear to he cant Chinese foor. Much to the angst of two wicked witches viplav puts his arm around her shoulders.. they arrive at restaurant...kamini the righteous person along with her Bau are in guilty of cunning conspiracy .
Kamini and Bua both will lie and highlight Dhani's ignorance and yet again ensure Dhani is seen as being hasty, careless in committing yet another serious blunder like the accident she caused. Once seated. Kamini tricks Viplav into leaving to collect her phone she forgot in the car, so she can tell Dhani to order a dish for Bua which is non veg.. then she slips to the loo.. the dish arrives and Bua takes the first bite and all pandemonium breaks loose as Bua accuses Dhani of being iillerate and ordering a meat dish when she cant read. Viplav comes in he can see Bua shouting at Dhani! Dhani explains it was Kamini who told her to order it Kamini denies and admits she did but told her to order the dish in vegetarian option! with Bua yelling curses at Dhani! she made her eat meat! and Viplav very nearly fed up by Dhani's explanations till he too adds in she shouldn't have ordered if she can't read! She could have waited for him.. but Bua yells ,she said so this illiterate girl will ruin everything for us !! he shouldn't have brought her along!every day she creates a new scene! if it was some one else they would have kicked her out by now! Bua screams! Dhani asks for forgiveness , made a mistake didn't do it deliberately! Bua curses her Kamini is pleased her underhand job paid off as Viplav is miffed with Dhani! Kamini offers to calm Bua and joins her outside where both wily scheming witches laugh!and Kamini mocks now even Viplav will not stand by this illiterate bimbo! Bua says now lets head home and do part two of this designed plot to pull Dhani image by a few notches in viplavs eyes! This time before Dashrant Tirpathi!
Holy people here further humiliate Dhani.. Kanak nearly kicks Dhani out but Dashrant stops her from doing so.. Bua the so called good women is a sinner full of hate ,a home wrecker she pours holy water over Dhani's head to cleanse her! Bua fails to see that lord Shiva sees them! the lot! as filthy vile seeping boils and sores they need cleansing not Dhani..
Dhani's husband empowers her, as he says her strength lies in the fact that she made a mistake , confessed it and sought forgiveness from all! the best way to rectify one's mistake is to apologize before all show repentance and remorse and she did just that! and viplav moans he's starving.. cracks a few fast ones that if she doesn't feed him he'll cook they laugh joke and hug! viplavkisses the top of dhani's head and adds meaningfuly , he wants to see her smiling and laughing always.. through their ajar door a defeated kamini watches the two people she wanted and thought split seem very united not divided... she will have to try something else..
well I actually found substance in this episode, the two viplav and dhani still remain one..despite all kinds of attacks from the good who seem sanctimonious , not genunine.. the vile characters get desperate .. seems like their end is not far..true love does survive !otherwise it would not be true hamlet53 8.5.16
