Shivika: Bait and Switch Coming Up

Such a happening week story-wise so far is a rare event in IB after ages, so I feel compelled to post some thoughts😆

I've quite enjoyed the last two epis...today just kicked things into another notch of lulziness and then surprisingly heartfelt "arc" completions...haha


Up first was Veer ka packup...ROFL Shivaay just sticking out a hand to do what? ZAP Veer into a statue or something kya? It was looking so friggin howlarious🤣...he just stuck out his hand and suddenly police appeared?😆😆...Even funnier was both of them trying to charge at each other like some kinda "wrestlers" with such angry faces...Just the whole premise felt so darn funny😆...tiny sa Billu in front of Hulk jaisa Veer😆





Tej jumping in to intervene? WTH was that?🤣 Was I the only one dying laughing here?



Billu looked a little scared of loverboy Veer there😆 or did he just feel bad ki Veer no love him anymore? lol



Anika was in full Khidkitod mode telling Veer to buzz off and THAA kar ke jail jaao...haha...Rudy was the first to fangirl over his Bhabhi again praising her for standing up to the hulk...such adorable expressions from Anika and Shivaay here even as Bua plots Anika's downfall in the bg...lol



Then Pinky jumped in, totally shocking Anika with her praise and even taking credit with "Aakhir Bahu kiski hai"...haha rocking Saas-Bahu jodi, this




The scene of the epi obviously has to be the Pinky-Anika scene...didn't see this one coming today...a Pinky actually picking Anika over Shivaay, taking her balaayein, even tying that dhaaga on her...as an Anika can just watch her with these teary eyes in disbelief, finding it hard to believe if this dream is really coming true of her getting such affection from Pinky...finally we see a Pinky openly admitting her mistakes, all the unfairness she put Anika through, showing remorse for her actions, chiding Anika for not saying a word of protest even after all the crap she threw at her...this range of emotions was so nicely portrayed by NA...and SC on the other end with Anika's reactions...these two actresses move in such beautiful sync together...and it's been quite the journey for Pinky from her three fingered salute to now kissing Anika's hands...haha






Have to put in a word for how perfectly NM complimented these two ladies in this scene too...his smiles at Pinky, happy to see her finally giving this affection to Ani...him supportively placing a hand on Anika's shoulder seeing her getting emotional, watching her with so much pride, seeing another example of her winning the family over with her goodness.




Then the switch to teasing them both for saas-bahu BHARAT MILAAP...hahaha...and Pinky pouting that they are teasing them...lol...such a lovelyyy family scene of this foursome...Shakti ji was adorable too



The family scenes in the movie watching bit were pretty cute too...especially Pinky-Shakti bits and Shivika bits as Pinky narrated anecdotes...just something picture perfect about this foursome now :)




Yeh toh tha Bait...lol the switch is coming up soon...


Once again, the writers used their fav. trope of Billu's memory getting activated after a delay...this time the trigger was BALAM PICHKARI being used as ringtone on Khanna's phone🤣...kahaan kahaan se kamaal ideas laate hain yeh log...lol anyways, so Billu's memory gets quickly activated to remembering bhaang adventures and Veer revealing ki woh kiska beta hai...lol dots quickly joined together, Billu manages to uncover ki woh Oberio Bua hi hai, she even happily admits she's conspired all this time...and justifies her motives...


The switch lies in how Shivaay will perceive the information regarding KM...Bua has vowed to present the info in such a way as to cause family rifts...and round one seems to be coming up tomorrow as Shivaay will fall for the presumption that his family killed Kapoor and set the fire...


The wildcard here is the Trivedi angle and Anika's reaction to the truth of his death...all the stress today on family, everyone doting on Anika makes me feel this is all build up to bring things crashing down again...just like the time before the previous seperation, showing Shivaay proposing so beautifully to Anika only to rip it all apart cruelly.


Anika has suppressed memories of her past pretty determinedly for a very long time...the last time that Shivaay got close to learning about her past, she fell apart for a bit...she was quite emotionally volatile during the NT track too before she became convinced that NT isn't her mother...so it's hard to predict how she will react to the news of her father and how he died...will her bonds with the Oberois still be as strong? That remains to be seen...but some kind of rift or angst seems likely now.


Let's see how long this latest "arc" lasts...haha

I've quite enjoyed the last two epis...today just kicked things into another notch of lulziness and then surprisingly heartfelt "arc" completions...haha itna lucky kaise ho gaye hum 4 back to back good episode *touchwood lol *


Up first was Veer ka packup...ROFL Shivaay just sticking out a hand to do what? ZAP Veer into a statue or something kya? It was looking so friggin howlarious🤣...he just stuck out his hand and suddenly police appeared?😆😆...Even funnier was both of them trying to charge at each other like some kinda "wrestlers" with such angry faces...Just the whole premise felt so darn funny😆...tiny sa Billu in front of Hulk jaisa Veer😆 it was so full of LULZ yeh toh hai hi hai uppar se sab ka entry bhagte bhagte in line oh boy i lost it at that🤣🤣🤣🤣 and aaj toh wrestling ring hi lag raha tha esp with Tej beech main standing like a referee too . trust me you were not alone i also went kar kya raha hai yeh tej beech main standing as if WWE chal raha hai and billu reminded me of tiny ray mysterio 😆😆 except he wasn't as fast as ray haahahah but build wise toh aise hi laga jaise sach main koi wrestling match ho. having said that ND was so good and i am going to miss ver .ek hi toh worthy adorable cute evil cum joker acha villain aaya tha who was worth watching phir chahe woh veer ke ool jalool plans ho ya creeepiness😃





Tej jumping in to intervene? WTH was that?🤣 Was I the only one dying laughing here? NOPE, not only was he being a refree but full expressions bhi thay tej ne bhi apne ss ka poora use kia😆😆😆



Billu looked a little scared of loverboy Veer there😆 or did he just feel bad ki Veer no love him anymore? lol billu was upset ke loveboy gaya ab kiske khwabon main ghum rahega billu awww



Anika was in full Khidkitod mode telling Veer to buzz off and THAA kar ke jail jaao...haha...Rudy was the first to fangirl over his Bhabhi again praising her for standing up to the hulk...such adorable expressions from Anika and Shivaay here even as Bua plots Anika's downfall in the bg...lol i loved this visual rudy boy sabse pehle cheering for bhabhi and for once being alone with bhabhi in full glory without the attachment. we have already talked about it but i am going to say it again lol at all those thinking anika was OOC aaj when last week they made her so crass and trashy with those stupid dance moves and LOUD cheap dialogues and people enjoying that like really?? today was vintage anika basking in her victory in full anika like manner none of the main characters lost class today and fell to the ground in order to defeat a villain. everybody did what they had too but there was a huge difference in execution despite all the lulz. they were so adorable na smiling and being happy . * shows her full daaant in happiness"

p.s also thankful to shakti and omkara for blocking my view and not letting me see what i did not wanted to for the most part



Then Pinky jumped in, totally shocking Anika with her praise and even taking credit with "Aakhir Bahu kiski hai"...haha rocking Saas-Bahu jodi, this i love that guroor in her voice it isn;t just arrogance anymore it has so much love in that pride too HAI rabba😳




The scene of the epi obviously has to be the Pinky-Anika scene...didn't see this one coming today...a Pinky actually picking Anika over Shivaay, taking her balaayein, even tying that dhaaga on her...as an Anika can just watch her with these teary eyes in disbelief, finding it hard to believe if this dream is really coming true of her getting such affection from Pinky...finally we see a Pinky openly admitting her mistakes, all the unfairness she put Anika through, showing remorse for her actions, chiding Anika for not saying a word of protest even after all the crap she threw at her...this range of emotions was so nicely portrayed by NA...and SC on the other end with Anika's reactions...these two actresses move in such beautiful sync together...and it's been quite the journey for Pinky from her three fingered salute to now kissing Anika's hands...haha this exactly this banda kaise emotional na ho. baaki toh i've said most of the stuff in other post not going to repeat but i especially liked these few expressions and caps the way she slightly churaooed nazar to wipe her tears and get herself together to apologize and anika ka look hai main mar jawan😳

absolutely loved her telling anika that why is she churaooing nazrein she did no wrong so why she needs to feel sad or sorry for no fault of hers while anika did that out of respect out of not making pinky feel anymore guilty .i love how she does that she never makes the culprit feel like one too usko bhi itna izat deti hai in her own way . her looking down had so much of respect man i just wanted them to hug so bad but i guess that's for another day . we still have to find our manzil there abhi safar baaki hai wahan ka and i would like a natural flow to that


also idk if i already said that or no but just notice how pinnika are such mirror images of each other in most of their mannerisms behavior hyperness being straight af etc etc even in this and the men are the calm to these toofans they're real parallels to each other gahhh i love ke for the first time ever i guess we can see such attention to detail i am 100% positive ke tukka hai but these quirks nuances are too hard to miss . they are ek doosre ka aaina in more ways then we are shown . i wish we get this explored more and more and more. not only their characteristics but even down tot heir body language pinky and anika are just the same yeh saas bahu ko track dedo yeh sabko kacha kha jaayein with their awesomeness😳




Have to put in a word for how perfectly NM complimented these two ladies in this scene too...his smiles at Pinky, happy to see her finally giving this affection to Ani...him supportively placing a hand on Anika's shoulder seeing her getting emotional, watching her with so much pride, seeing another example of her winning the family over with her goodness. +1 again i also loved this look anika gave it to him to make sure it was real she wasn't dreaming it was happening & then his assurance with his arm on her shoulders with that look GOSH HOW DARN FREAKING FANTABULOUSSS ARE THE BOTTOM 2 CAPS😳




Then the switch to teasing them both for saas-bahu BHARAT MILAAP...hahaha...and Pinky pouting that they are teasing them...lol...such a lovelyyy family scene of this foursome...Shakti ji was adorable too again a wonderful display of their capabilities how fantastic they are in that mood switch and hwo effortless all 4 of them👏👏👏



The family scenes in the movie watching bit were pretty cute too...especially Pinky-Shakti bits and Shivika bits as Pinky narrated anecdotes...just something picture perfect about this foursome now :) same they were such a cute part of this otherwise bleh sa scene just there for the hint. it was adorable to see billu being slightly embarrassed by his childhood talks and shrartein awww. i guess shayad first time hi hai we are hearing all this and it is so natural to feel likebutt of all jokes like billu hehee the slight defensive statement ke jo samjh aaya maine kia was superrr awww ani cheek pe kiss kar deti iske he was being too frigging adorbs in his slight embarrassing situation





Yeh toh tha Bait...lol the switch is coming up soon...


Once again, the writers used their fav. trope of Billu's memory getting activated after a delay...this time the trigger was BALAM PICHKARI being used as ringtone on Khanna's phone🤣...kahaan kahaan se kamaal ideas laate hain yeh log...lol anyways, so Billu's memory gets quickly activated to remembering bhaang adventures and Veer revealing ki woh kiska beta hai...lol dots quickly joined together, Billu manages to uncover ki woh Oberio Bua hi hai, she even happily admits she's conspired all this time...and justifies her motives... super adorable khanna was bechara hahah i toh adore those silent stares and sessions between khanna and shivaay they both bring out so much chemistry and saare scene ka feel hi in silent gestures main rehta hai khanan ke shy smiles and bhuddhupana and shivaay being irritated hahaha at khanan the fanboy only changing his ringtien caz sir danced on it kahan milga aisa solid support . him asking for permission and bataoon ke maa ka phone hai was extra adorable . teddy khanna is frigging cutiepie i am loving ke khanna ke saath aur scenes mil rahe hain and tehya re not forced bilkul old days wala vibe hai back in shivanna


The switch lies in how Shivaay will perceive the information regarding KM...Bua has vowed to present the info in such a way as to cause family rifts...and round one seems to be coming up tomorrow as Shivaay will fall for the presumption that his family killed Kapoor and set the fire...
shivaay is so not going to believe any justifications esp with bua possibly giving him the photos too the seniors are in a raita here. anika might believe them and want to be like wiat they mgith be trapped to start that initial argument conflict between shivika but then for him it is not going to be easy to digest esp given how he is all about facts and yahan to sab aankhon ke samne ho raha hai how can billu do undekha that. it is going to be so interesting seeing him turning off onto the very family he has protected for so long and not believing a word they say. pinky looked so shattered in precap along with shivaay so disturbed so i think initially anika might be standing with them and try to be the wall for the family but that is only till mr trivedi's sach is hidden which as you are saying is the wildcardvery very hard to predict oonth kis karwat bhethe ga. anika is so unpredictable in this matetr last time she got totally turned off by the idea of finding her base and this time to it involves her real family plus the family she found now so it is the choice between past and present let;s see what anika picks. i for some reason feel she might give a white chit to the family for mr trivedi as it is gone past . yes she will be shattered and she might be angry and sad but she will choose them but then shivaay ka morals won';t allow him to side with the wrong in this case so this is where i feel the problem will arise them coming onto the common ground for that


i am also conflicted about what to make of all this stress on pyar of family and how anika is everyone's apple of the eye but dekhte hain for now they've got my attention let's hope zyada disappoint na karein jo bhi karna hai dhang se karein though in IB land it is a given 3, 4 good episodes and then raita so i am prepared any which way

As always wonderful review AY...👍🏼
Well u r not alone even I was 🤣 with all Veer, Shivay & Tej (mute) screaming at each other it was really funny and on top of that I also remember Niketan having fought with LM for how this scene can be done so super entertaining tha it to watch 😆

I might be in minority but I didn't really liked Anika ke taunts to Veer how Shivay made pappu of him again & again... this level of smugness doesn't suit Anika as a character IMO... But then I do know it was there to make Bua hate Anika more & justify Bua ka future hate towards Anika 🤔

Pinky & Anika seen was to watch & NA such a fantastic actress that she makes you forget that she is the same Pinky who few months back was so evil to the same Anika... She just makes u feel hyee kya mast sasu maa mili hain Anika ko 😆 i know tho da Jada ho gayaa...

The entire ShinKy & ShivIka scene had such a beautiful family feel too it ❤️...

Overall a really nice entertaining episode...

Roop bua trying to justify her hate for family blaming them for making her pay for the price for her mistake while Tej always getting a free pass for his lifelong ayaashis & wrongdoings...

Well to some extended Roop is right but what right Roop had to kill all those innocent ppl in KM fire & making 5 innocent kids fatherless.. But then Villains don't need any justifications for their actions 🤔


As for future... For some reasons I feel today's Pinky-Anika scene will play a major role in future when Shivay & Anika will have to choose sides in choosing to be with Oberios or against Oberios...

Why do I feel CV's will surprise us showing Shivay trusting his version of events & holding Sr. Oberios responsible for KM fire & killings of innocents while Anika will support Sr. Oberios trusting them when thy will refuse the charges against them...

NM's quirky take on Shivaay is what makes him Shivaay and not the typical cookie cutter Gul ML...😆...the fact that he can add in the wacky lulzy quirks along with nailing all other range of emotions too is what makes his portrayal of Shivaay noteworthy to me.


I think it's refreshing that I can laugh at a ML and still adore him😆


In this scene, it's not NM but the writing/direction that has come with such a lulzy scene to begin with that Shivaay sticking out a hand is supposed to stop Veer in his tracks😆

Thanks, Sayali :)


Re: Anika's reaction...actually I didn't find it out of character...it's very typical Anika to act smug after a victory...she did it during the ML reveal track last year too...taunting Mrs. Kapoor after the truth was revealed...so her taunting Veer today was very much Anika-like...her getting back at him for all the torture he put her through


Ofcourse it will also help build up Bua's hatred of her...but this was otherwise very much like Anika to do.


Pinky-Anika have always made a crackling saas-bahu pair despite Pinky's long innings as a vamp...lol before all that nonsense started, she had a damn cute bond with Anika...and now after a long time we are back to that...cuz these two are surprisingly similar personalities in many ways...all heart...except that Pinky has a tendency to give in to her worse impulses.


Roop did have a point about the hypocrisies of the Oberios towards the men being forgiven all manner of things...while the women having to pay a higher price...but her methods were still wrong as Shivaay aptly pointed out.


Yes, Shivaay deffo seems on the track to believe the Sr. Oberois are the culprits but I'm still not sure about Anika supporting the Sr. Oberois...especially if her father's truth is revealed...let's see how the writers spin this...lol it would be pretty ironic if Anika becomes the Great Wall for the Oberois instead of Shivaay...role reversal? haha interesting.

LOLL yeah I really crack up over how Shivaay's bhaang induced memories get activated so randomly...like the way he randomly remembered snippets from that first punch drunk night with Anika...then later his memory regarding the bhaang waali aloo puri leading him to finally exposing Pinky...lol to now today Khanna's ringtone helping him remember Veer's bhaang confession...haha pretty action oriented Billu we saw today.


haha@ Khannji being Shivaay ke Nandi...so true...his every single thought revolves around something Shivaay related...lol ringtone bhi isiliye daal liya cuz Shivaay danced to that song on Holi? 😆😆...true fanboy he is...haha

Pardon me, but I can't help but spam with Pinky related scenes today...lol we've gotten so many lovely touching visuals with her off late...this little wrapping up of Shivaay's naraazgi arc with her,,,,

There was a time when he was busy side-eying Pinky so much around the time of the second Shivika shaadi...haha...



To the softening during Vanvaas




Until they finally managed to reach this point
