IP REDUX - Chain Of Events !!

Tant, will wait for your synopsis. I know it will be good...oops TANTASTIC. 👏 👏 👏

Just finished. Fantastic. Yeah the hand scene was just like the hospital one and this time also it signified that he will take care of her like he did last time. It was just after he took care for her Dad and this time he also took care for her sister's happiness. The same sister that he is threatening about to Khushi. How Ironic naa???

Whoa it's good to be back and that too with an episode that promises some action ahead. 😃 You know today after watching the episode I actually had to go back and check some of my analysis regarding the track ahead and the character synoptic. Last two episodes were out of track and really didn't add to the story and character equations but today, I can see the continuation from Wednesday's episode. No, actually the continuation is from the fake PDA with the Kheer scene that was on Monday, 5^th March. What happened between 6^th and 9^th is purely out of context and just to fill in the gap for SPA. But yeah I believe it will come on handy when the actual papers will show up to Khushi and she will realize that Arnav never even prepared any divorce papers for Payal and Aakash. This will happen when she needs to understand the true motive of Arnav in keeping her at RM. Till then as the CVs will forget those episodes I suggest you all should do so. 😡 Just enjoy them independently. I would have taken into consideration if the CVs would have continued the track thereafter.

There was couple of thoughts that came across my mind last week watching those episodes. Since the beginning, I have seen whenever Arnav makes a plan against Khushi, its Khushi who always win it or it gets nullified eventually for her to balance it finally. That did happen with the divorce threaten also.

Then another important thought that occurred to me while I was watching the Friday episode where the trio was in the lounge and later on when Khushi saw the soiled divorce paper. Instantly, it reminded me of the GH scene where Arnav supplicated apology from Payal. Then Payal reciprocated with justification that Arnav in turn had saved her life from Abhishek and today because of him she is in much better position in her life with a promising future with Aakash. The same way, I feel it will be Payal again who will be instrumental in making Khushi and Arnav realize with profundity that Arnav instead saved her from Shyaam's clutches. Both the times he did it unknowingly but still it's because of him today Payal and Khushi are saved. How Ironic. Isn't it???

Now let's come to today's episode. Yes, the story has indeed taken charge now. Though nothing much has happened but there are some subtle changes that I noticed in Arnav-Khushi equation in today's episode. The same way I liked the Shyaam-Anjali scene too; I liked Naani-Khushi equation. Now this Khushi I liked and not the one who uninvited went to Gupta residence and started to behave as if nothing had happened and it's just a mere prank that she had pulled and expect forgiveness in return. Eloping and getting married is a big issue here and "Maafi" is a very strong decision in these matters from both the families basically with the elders. I loved Naani was still upset with the situation and Khushi started taking charge of things. Remember I said let her have a grip and she will be back as a fighter. She is indeed and oh boy, I can't express how I love her "never say die" attitude.That's Khushi for us. She started making plans with the help of Maama and Laxmi and Payal. Loved how Naani couldn't help but smile at her initiative. The same way I loved the piggy bank touch when she refused to Payal's help for money. Yeah, "Charity begins at home", right???

On the contrary, I loved that she had taken help from Arnav when needed. These are small clues that I liked. Maami knowing Payal didn't have the money, Khushi refused Payal, she managed herself, she not taking help from Shyaam and in turn this will help Arnav to put 2 and 2 together when needed. This reminded me of the chana payment by Arnav in the Khushi MIA scenario then vis-a-vis Khushi's taking it as a loan now. If Arnav figures out the difference in the characteristic then and now, I guess half of the problem will be solved. I liked this touch by the Creative team along with Khushi's signature on the loan but it still forces me to think the "Contract @ Office" unused Loop.

The little Arhi scene I liked 'coz it was genuine; yeah as she questioned there's no one in the room so he need not do the fake act. But, I liked his skipping the reason. I guess that is why it's been said "sometimes we understand each other better when we stay together". Khushi will slowly realize Arnav's genuine feelings and in turn will eventually put 2 and 2 together to decode the hidden agenda.

"It's hard to recognize the Satan when his hand is on your shoulder" ~ Albert Speer on Hitler.

Anjali is Shyaam's "ACE". As I mentioned earlier he will use her to get to Arnav and the same way now, he will use "Arnav" to get to Khushi. yeah, many have raised issues on why Anjali doesn't see through Shyaam, my question is how can she??? When the devil has the hand on your shoulder how will you see him/her??? For to see them in clear vision you need the Satan to stand in front of you; for he needs to unmask himself; for he needs to show his true colors. Like when he came to face Khushi, the Guptas and Arnav they saw through him. Give her time she will come to know about him when the God (read CVs) will want. But, this scene gave away couple of details IMO. One that, Anjali had started accepting the alliance between Arnav and Khushi and the other is the hint that despite how they have got married, she and Naani always approved of this relationship. This is a big piece of BAD information for Shyaam to start working on his vendetta. Another piece of information he slipped regarding his helplessness in spending time with Anjali. When time will come, she will use it. Let her have her reverie till then. That's what Anjali is; she just needs to have a support system to stand up; be it her husband; be it her optimism; be it her family's happiness. She is what she is. That is why I believe she will side Shyaam when truth will come because even today it's Shyaam who has provided her the "Epitome of Happiness" that a woman can get.

I will take some time to analyze what I feel is needed regarding the sleeping arrangement between Arnav and Khushi. Please never look at one side of the coin; always look at the other side of the coin too. The wedding between them was not a compromise; neither was it done in front of the family nor was it sealed with a legal deal. It is purely humiliation and sham. This marriage is a verbal deal between two individuals only for 6 months without any eye witness. Just put yourself in Khushi's position, do you think you can stay every single night with a person behind locked doors when you know that this marriage has NO VALUE in the eyes of law and society??? What will happen when the crude truth of this marriage will be out??? Will the society ever, ever forgive her??? How will she prove her purity??? Who will believe her??? No one. I repeat No One. I am glad that she is outside somewhere and Maami knows somehow that the sleeping arrangement is separate. When this issue will be raised at least there will be one person who will believe this couple. Either way her repute is damaged but deep down she will be happy to sleep separately. Here she is wedded to the protagonist but in real life if any girl, God forbid, is in this situation then how will that girl prove her Purity??? There will be one way to prove that is through DNA/Sexual purity testing. Wouldn't that be humiliation too??? She cannot sleep in separate room for the family on whose sake they are sacrificing themselves will learn the truth. Outside at least she sleeps under the stars and is protected by her parents from heaven above. I am happy with this arrangement as at least she can sleep peacefully there instead of fearing the whole night of getting eaten. Deep down she is a girl and every girl has an unknown fear of losing her virginity. For as Woody Allen says, "The lion and the calf shall lie down together but the calf won't get much sleep".

Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn't know you left open. ~John Barrymore

Next cometh my favourite scene of the day when we saw somniloquous Khushi. Oh I love it. I do that too. But the reason I loved it is because of the use of colors by the creative team. I loved it because of her innocence and her attitude to find happiness in the small things that are associated with the daily lives as in a saying "inn choti choti khushiyon se zindagi banti hain".Yes, happiness sneaks in through the door that we left open and we have no idea about it. I loved how the creative team played with it. Arnav was inside sleeping but turned around with the sound of Khushi's somniloquence that came from outside. They have showed, the door was not fully closed much likely the car window was not fully closed in the pag phere episode. Logically that is how he will wake up to the sound but if you perceive through an Author's eye it is the happiness that sneaked in through that door Arnav didn't know he left open. When Khushi decided the colors about her people and the moment she said "yellow", his lips automatically had widened that even he was not aware of. In my opinion that was the best scene of the day. Some pursue happiness, others create it. Khushi created happiness and Arnav just pursued it.

The colors were so wonderfully and thoughtfully chosen. For Amma 'Bauji, its greenwhich signifies life. It is natural, soothing. It signifies peace as is one finds the peace in Mom's lap. Then for Buaji, it's Orange, which has a very positive as well as negative association with it. You have both love and hate feeling to it. It's a very strong color. Then comes Payal, it's blue , which signifies tranquility. It's calm, composed, sedating just like Payal. I loved how she wore blue saree also and proved Khushi right that she knows all her people in and out even in sleep. Here comes DM's red color. Red, it has more personal association with any individual than any other color. Red signifies action and confidence. It provides a sense of protection from fear and anxiety; red increases enthusiasm; red provides protection as in Sindoor. Then comes yellow, our Khushi's color; just like her it signifies optimism; just like her it spreads happiness and sparks creative thoughts. Kudos to the creative team for defining the characters with colors.

Last scene, slowly slowly Khushi is feeling at ease with DM. Loved it and also loved that was seen by Anjali. Khushi's genuineness is proven with this. But the best part was all that happened in the last scene was infront of DM - Anjali witnessing Khushi's closeness with DM, Shyaam's evil wish, Khushi's refusal and Arnav's eavesdropping. All was by the guidance of DM, how can it not be??? She is Khushi's confidante after all.

I will elaborate tomorrow this whole scene as we will learn what exactly Arnav eavesdropped; did he see Khushi refused to put the gulaal or only Shyaam's monologue??? If both then his confusion will start regarding the fishiness in Shyaam-Khushi business as I have always mentioned. It's high time Arnav start putting 2 and 2 together. Now, I think the Bhaang may be Shyaam's idea to make Khushi unconscious. Let's wait and watch but it will be a fun day today.

lovely analysis tanthya and doods...
