Fantastic episode yesterday !
OTT campy humour, with hints of unresolved tension and background wellmeaning plots. (Yes, there were icky vamp plots too.)
Shivika
See? After some release of tension and getting used each other being around again, the anger is slowly dissolving into sarcastic jibes and stabs of jealousy. These two are so wrapped around each other, the house could be burning down, but their attention is on where the other is, and what they are doing.
Watch how Shivaay was blankly neutral about Ragini needing a place to stay with a friend that night. ZIP. No reaction at all. Blank stare. But when Annika came back with kaada to keep Ragini away from Shivaay, he was very quick to invite her to stay. 😆🤣... so transparent, this Billu is cute. He knows Annika is jealous but isn't satisfied with her lack of outburst. He wants that reaction , like you know, throwing chairs at glass windows kind. 😆
Annika was SOOO cute with her glass of kaada, keeping Ragini away from asking sympathy from Shivaay. Smartly done girl! Even got him to vouch for your kaada and your intentions..👏👍🏼
But as she walked away, his attention walked away with her. How adorable is this Billu. Now that she's back, he's following her around like a lost puppy. I'm glad its Annika, at least we can trust that she has good intentions upon this vulnerable Billu.
He followed her find out why she was concerned about Ragini all of a sudden. (I want to see anger damn it!! Why aren't you angry! ) "WHy are you making kaada for Ragini , so concerned?"
"Why is it upsetting you? It's for your future mangetar..."
Shivaay can't even bear to hear the words. Full on possessiveness burst out, uncontrollable.
"You..(are).. my fiance.. Ragini mere mangetar (nahin)... (there i completed the sentence for him)
I felt so bad for him. If only she can see how NOT anywhere close to moving on he is.
Om interrupts because it's time for Mission: Reunite Rudra & Bhavya..
His worrying over her safety returned today. Keeping an eye out for her, waiting for her as they were running to hide. Shivaay 2.0 is peeping out of the dark cave.
The plan was all Shivika, as Om let them fight and canoodle around each other alternatively, being the lookout member.
Later , when plan worked , they stood outside to celebrate success, and they clasped a high 5, hands firmly together. When Om told him to let go, see clearly how much he didn't want to let go.😭
RuVya
How adorable was it to see them working out together, and Bhavya to kick his butt at it also... Wrong competition to choose Rudy boy.!
Shivaay said some funny things while they plotted.
"He's MY BROTHER. Look at all the extreme things he has to do to prove his machoness? He won't let himself lose his ego!"
Rudra gets stuck in tampered wires from his exercise machine. The brothers & bhabhi made a fine hilarious show if not helping until they got Bhavya to do it. 🤣
Comic timing on point !!
And when she did, Rudra got zapped by a high voltage current, as she expertly untangled him. When the fights resumed, Shivaay has more gems to say...
"WHy are you two looking for reasons to fight? Be nice to her Rudra !! That's amazing, even after such a big fight, she helped you out. " And you didn't even ask her to...
(I am so enjoying the double meanings and ricochet here.. Light bulb still not lighting up)
TejVi _Svetlana ~~Shakti+Pinky
Tej is again up to no good. The other day, he sportingly accepted Shivaay's "naajayaz" secret (still doubting this BTW) and let the drama play out because Jhanvi had leverage over him.
Apparently he is a man full of surprises, and he is now back in cahoots with Svetlana. (
God knows which one she is, the face-changing 100 year old witch, or the masoom Svetlana who was in the ice box. Sorry, Svetlana is ruined for me. Whether or not she is still the eldest of Nafratbaaz (Oberois ki barbaadi etc etc * fistshake*) we still dunno.)
Maybe i can erase all the above and take Svetlana back in time to the point she was Tej's PA and mistress & was waiting to become Mrs TSO again, and this will be better. Yes. Because she is now the sad mistress, used and thrown away, and the man is determined more than ever to bring her home.
(Yep, I see Tej-Jhanvi & Om arc coming back, THAT was a good track for Om, thank you HS-GK.)
But why is Pinky being let into this arc? She has always been a well wisher of her JethaniJi, and had fought battles with Tej about his adultery too. Senior OBahus were a strong team before. Is this coming back?
Then Shakti's much awaited part came up. The man talks really well when given a chance. He is angry, but always exercises restraint, never violent with his wife, even when she is an absolute demon. Saintly, or apathetic, take your pick.
He walks into Pinky's scene, ranting at servants for no reason. She's being sour grapes because nobody involved her in the fun and games with cake and pool splashing. People are laughing and happy around each other, and no one is noticing her sour face.
He breaks through the ranting and gets to the bulls'eye.
" You're feeling angry because nobody involved you in the happiness. Think, then. There must be a reason for that. Nobody is your enemy here, but you need to join in , not have it your way. Take one step, and family takes 100 steps to you. Respect is earned, not demanded."
Pinky is made to witness Tej leaving with a woman in town, when he was supposed to be in Delhi. I have a feeling Tej's plan is to counter blackmail Jhanvi into leaving, using Shivaay's secret. And Pinky's redemption is by this route. Let's see.
Because family bonds are back in full force , and even older Oberois have good arcs. Well done.! 👏
