Khushi lost? No, Khushi won today - she won the first challenge, that first battle in the war against Arnav, the first step in recovering her lost pride.
But from where I see it, Khushi lost today ... or started to lose ... Something very precious. The carefree innocent confidence of childhood, the childlike belief in the goodness of the world, her innate faith in humanity ... Khushi took her first step into an adult world today, and a painful step it was. Khushi has been through tragedy in her life, the biggest tragedy a child can face, the loss of her parents, the status of an orphan with no one to call her own - but she's been cushioned from that pain by her new family, by an Ammaji who's strict but loving, by a babuji who dotes on her, who tells her that 'dil ke rishte khoon ke rishton se bade hote hain', reassuring her in so many words that she's not alone, by her jiji, who's always there for her, her unflinching (if somewhat weak) support, even a Buaji, who even through her taunts, is still there as a family member. So Khushi has learnt to live with her pain, not just live with it, but smile with it, laugh through it, bury her insecurities deep and face the world with a smile ... because although she's lost a lot, she's gained something too, and she'd rather focus on the positives, than moan about the negatives.
But today Khushi couldn't do that. Flung suddenly into a world where people are not kind, where people laugh at her, make fun of her just because she's different ... that line she spoke to Shyam on the phone stung me deeply ... Added to which, she thought that all she had to do was to prove to Arnav that she could work, and he would change his opinion of her ... she never realised that he had taken this as a personal vendetta. All she was bothered about was clearing her name, which had been smirched time and again, wrongly, unfairly ... But when had this become a personal battle? And an unfair one ... ASR holds all the winning cards, he has the power, the strength, the backing of his termites (that's the office staff) and he's going to use them ... all she has is her brains and her faith ... Which she needs, more than ever.
So yes, Khushi won the first battle ... but she lost something much more precious. She lost her innocence. And began the slow painful journey into adulthood, and into the real world.
And she lost two things which defined her. Her nonstop chatter ... Khushi had not a single dialogue in the second half of the episode. Her eyes, her body language did all the talking.
And she lost her smile.
Sanaya, take a bow! In an episode full of inanities and ridiculous sequences, you still managed to touch my heart. As always.
