Hey Diya!

Gr8 rewinding of entire week's happenings! Loved ur sub titles!

The track has progressed to some extent with some plotting, scheming, nautanki, heart break etc etc...

I would b grateful to the CV's if they proceeded with the marriage track without much delay...
I have lost my hope with Payal and Anjali...
If Arhi's relationship is going round n round, Payaash's relationship seems to b stagnant (I even thought of singing "Dum lagaake haisha zor laga ke haisha" for them)
Enough is Enough for Shyam's monologue and Buaji's Shyamua gungaan (Garima officially Non Existent)

Not a gr8 week, but it had its moments

Loved ur post

diya i am done with my stuff. i am not ranting as currently i am not unhappy with CVs 😆
most of the people ask why CVs went all back to zero level when arhi were moving ahead in the relationship. Thats exactly what Arnav wanted right . now its kushi's turn to grow their relationship but she will not do until she gets married to him 😳
personally i feel CVs will go ahead with arnav and blah engagement and some more epis
before actually zeroing on arhi marriage may be a year end marriage.
Sharu, you're one of the few who are not unhappy 😆
I am not seriously unhappy yet ... there is progress, although slow ... but I do hope the next ME shows some more developments and not just more of Shyam gloating over Shashi ... those are my least favourite scenes!
Thanks for your take ... enjoyed discussing with you!

Was waiting for your post Diya...love the weekly recap and epi titles!

I agree that all signs point to a separation and I also do not see an ARHI marriage track - hopefully, the CVs don't disappoint us and refrain from a Shyam + Khushi marriage (urggh) track. From the way Abhaas is hamming through the current track, it definitely looks like a TRP move by the CVs 😡 - really sad 'cos it breaks the story and its continuity. They has started off on the right path with each character having space and definite role woven into the story line...however, they seem to backtrack and lose the story line sometimes e.g. in the case of Garima (the original one was a stronger character), Shyam had moved out of Buaji's house as paying guest but sure enough, within 2 epis he was back in as if nothing had happened. If Garima's character has gone mute, common sense out of the window for majority of characters, Buaji complaining about her sizable role, Mamji MIA and Payal under consideration for another role makes it sound it is wavering. Hope the CVs get back on track with the story telling and stick to it!

Once the CVs tackle Shyam's duplicity, they might tackle ASR's phobia to commitment and his past...don't see ARHI marriage until next year sometime...I hope they do not drag the serial endlessly but give the story a tempered, logical, dignified close.

HI Diya

Like most correspondents to your post i was waiting for your weekly recap as well. You did not disappoint. though the same cannot be said for the IPPKND events last week. Maybe disaapoint is a wrong word here I should call it a lacklustre week.

The Shyam & Bua fest was expected. Of the two i am more sympathetic towrads bua as its her ignorance and her love for her brother that drives her. She is unaware of the mainpulation and the day she comes to know of it she will not sit back . Its Shyam The Slimeball who has created this web in which he will get caught himself. I am waiting for that day. Those expressions are really hard to watch !!.

Anjali is my big disappointment. I have been watching past episodes to remind myself if I have been wrong in assessing her . She has been very perceptive in the past of her brothers thoughts . Her claim of "I can read you Chote" were justified then but lately since the time he has been in love she has simply missed the frequency - Oh I forget she thinks its La !!. Why is she content holding the pooja ki thaali and not questioning her husband. She is KEY to the future of her brother as its her reaction that I await when Shyam's truth comes out. We all know how Arnav & Khushi will react but not her . And the way she is now I dont see how she will stand strong against her husband... Will be interesting to watch.

On a positive note Diya, the Real engagement was a surprise. It had its flaws as to Why Khushi's first question to Arnav was not - What are you doing here ? A few bloopers and the round-n-round camera BUT i loved the concept. Very romantic . Both are fantastic together and as Barun said in his interview that basically both are in love yet do not confront that feeling. Our Duo are doing a fantastic job on that front. Worth the thumb sprain due to excessive fast forwarding.

The story is at a very interesting juncture and at this point there is no clear indication which route it will take. You say Cvs are being quiet as if it very a suspense drama but think of it Diya - we are all on tenterhooks wanting to know what happens next ? This is good drama indeed. Right ?

Till later

Back again with my weekly bakbak ... thanks to all who reply and encourage me to keep writing this. Last week was pretty predictable, we all knew Khushi-Shyam engagement was coming ... so thanks to the cv's for putting in the "real" engagement - the Khushi-Arnav one ... which was a treat to watch in the otherwise pretty tiresome week. And also reassuring to us viewers that whatever Slimeball Shamoo gets up to, he will never succeed in his nefarious purpose of marrying Khushi!

So here goes!

[Monsi]Hey dear.. it's amazing that you put so much effort to make this post every week... I love your take always.. and here's my inputs inline... 😊

Mon 7^th Nov - Scheming Slimeball, Stupid Sisters and 2 Idiots in Love

[Monsi]Ha ha ... Good one... 😆

...

Stupid Sister no. 1 ... Buaji still thinks that her mute brother will recover miraculously the day Khushi agrees to marry the Scheming Slimeball. Arey bewakoof aurat, entire medical gyaan on one side, and your expert, and completely inaccurate, knowledge of what will cure your brother on the other side! And gullible buaji doesn't even realise how expertly she is being manipulated by Scheming Slimeball.

[Monsi] I guess she doesnt think that Shashi babu will recover if the wedding happens... in fact she is thinking that this is Shashi Babu's last wish before he takes the last breath.. so She is very much sure that Shashi Babu will NOT survive ... so much for a CARING sister 🤣

Stupid Sister no. 2 ... for a sister who claims to be able to read her brother's eyes and heart, Anjali proved singularly clueless (as usual) in figuring out why her brother dear had gone hurtling back into ASR mode, after rejoining the world of the humans for a very brief sojourn. Icing on the cake was when she attributed it to his very understandable nervousness at entering the state of holy matrimony! Guess Anjali has lived with ASR for so long, that she didn't even recognise the glimpse of Arnav when he peeked out ... She is actually unsurprised to see ASR back ... so unsurprised, that she doesn't bother to question why Arnav peeped out in the first place.

[Monsi] Anjali has seen the changes in Arnav and she also pointed it out loud on Kanya Pooja day... remember she said that "Khushiji kahin aapne Lavanya ke sath sath Chhote ko bhi badal diya hai" ... But even after this i believe that.. she has NO reason to think that Arnav can be in LOVE with Khushi when he is still keeping LA at home.. and also agreed to marry her ... She also senses that he is not so happy after the marriage announcement so she confronts him... and there goes all her intelligence down the drain 😆 One thing is that all RM residents are so much used to Arnav's mood swings that they usually stopped paying attention to it ... so probably they including Anjali might be thinking that this is ONE OF THOSE DAYS for Arnav 😆

It would be really good if Anjali finds out Snake babua's truth first... then we will see the growth in her character... else she'll remain like a doll kept in his bro's showcase

Stupid Sister no. 3 ... I would call her useless rather than stupid ... she does realise that Khushi is not happy with the hurried engagement, but like her witless mother, she can't say a word to Roadroller Buaji.

[Monsi] At this point Payal cant say anything... Buaji has filled everyone's mind with one thing that this is what Shashi Babu wanted... and she cant go against that even if she can sense Khushi's disapproval of it...she is clear that she will not give any more of her attention to Aakash bitwa ...so she has self respect but obviously she is not as strong as Khushi and can never raise her voice in front of her elders...

A tiny glimpse of Arnav and Khushi ... 2 Idiots in love communing with the moon ... one runs from his feelings, the other doesn't recognise them until it's too late. Not that she could have done much about them even if she had, as Idiot no 1 is busy doing the marathon, running as far as he possibly can - AWAY from the finish line!

[Monsi] Yes... Khushi has a self-realization that she loves him... but cannot question him further as he closed all the doors on her face... Now it's only Arnav's part to admit to himself that he loves her even though he knows it 😕 ...

Tues 8^th Nov ... Turmoil

...
[Monsi] Yep...as much as he cant see her tears.. he also cant bear her silence.. he always wants the Khushi who retorts.. gives the piece of her mind to him.. 😆

Wed 9^th Nov ... Sarva Mangal Maangalye

The engagement that was meant to be ... right time, right place, right person ...

Although I didn't like seeing Slimeball's face popping in intermittantly, it was tolerable because the scenes were put in to track the exact time of the bandage tying ... (logic is bherryyy important!!! 😆) ... besides, I always enjoy seeing Shyam frustrated ... preferable by far to seeing him getting sadistic with babuji and slimy with Anjali.

[Monsi] I think Abhaas gave an OVER-ACTING ka dose ... real bad acting..🤢.

I did laugh a bit at the way Arnav saw two drops of blood and raced after Khushi to do first aid, completely forgetting that he just told her to leave and he didn't want to see her face again ... awww, the guy has it bad! 😳 And I was relieved to see he even remembered the mannat ki chaabi, I thought he might have forgotten all about it! I guess, like Khushi, he hasn't forgotten any of their encounters either.

[Monsi] yeah ... first he tried to throw it thinking that Khushi has again left her things but then a Mentos Moment happens and he remembers..😆

...

[Monsi] The whole scene was dramatic but dreamy... 😳 She again has whirlpool of questions in her mind... she is not able to understand this guy ... kabhi neem neem... kabhi shehed shehed 😃
He knows she will ask questions .. and he is ready this time .. he is not running away but ready with only one answer i.e. silence ... but our Khushiji... *duh* ... instead of asking the right questions.. bhagwan ke upar lecture dene lag padi... and this guy took all the adv of this to run away from the situation 😆

And they part ... two hot-tempered, strong-willed proud individuals, neither ready to give an inch, ready to break but never ready to bend ... not ready to acknowledge that pull that brings them together again and again ... yet never lets them come too close.

[Monsi] yeah... hot-tempered, strong headed , egoistic fools.. still in "aa dekhe zara kisme kitna hai dum" mode... 😃

...
Barun and Sanaya are the BESTEST things ever happened to Indian TV industry 😃

10^th Nov Thursday - Sarvam Amangalam

...

[Monsi] It's a point to be noted that Khushi never thought of Shyam more than a friend even though he is always good ... but falls in love with Arnav ... I gave a quote last time for this..
I repeat again...

"The heart has reasons that reason does not understand."

[Monsi] Come to think of it... Khushi also has NO reason to say NO to Shyam's proposal... In general he is quite fitting groom for her .. it's us who know his true colours but noone else... 😃 and Buaji also says the correct thing that She has to give a very strong reason to say NO... BUT... Buaji or any of the Gupta's are not at all worried about Shaym's parents or background.. that's disturbing and unbelievable !!!

And loved the imagery of Arnav rubbing at the spot of blood - beautifully done ... someone among the CV's a literature buff? Lady Macbeth's 'Out, Damned Spot', no less! I could see Arnav's frustration, his guilt, his regrets, in the way he frantically rubbed at the imaginary drop of blood ... try as he might, he can't rub out her touch, her feel, her memories ...

[Monsi] I just loved this scene... done excellently by Barun... all of his anger, frustration and loosing control ... perfectly depicted by Him... Barun always out-does himself in every scene these days ... 😳

...

And Khushi finally realises she is in love.

[Monsi] But what's the use... our hot-headed, running miles away from love Hero is pushing her away ... IDIOT 😆

11.11.11 Fri ... Indicating Arshi Separation?

[Monsi] Oh Yes... there are many... I wish it's not for long.. 😭 You gave a very nice insight to this episode 😊

...
...

And if the coming ME is really a ME, and does lead towards another major twist (unlike the last one) ... then we might as well enjoy the Arshi scenes this week, because we may not get too many for some time. Having said that, I have been expecting an Arshi separation for some time now ... still hasn't happened! 😆

[Monsi] Shyam has gone to Chandigarh..!!! i think Abhaas is on leave for sometime.. so this returning to RM track can be a poor FILLER too But for sure... these two cant live without seeing each other.. so finding a middle way to see each other but not talking to each other... yeah right .. as if that's also possible 😆 I am very much sure that Shyam's revelation is not gonna happen very soon... it could be final bye bye to LA first... let's wait and watch !!!
