Thanks!!!
It really is sad how much I enjoyed todays show. Finally it seems that we are getting back to the actual track at hand. Not much truly happened today lol.
I feel as if this show really takes one step forward, one step back, and then two steps forward. We've really had this conversation between Shyam and Anjali already, the only difference now is that Nani has gotten involved. I won't say much about the shoddy directing, but I will say this -
I agree, if a serious scene is to be shot they need to find a way to have the leads present. Let them have their vacations, but use the body doubles for the comedy scenes.
@bold: Totally agree
I don't know why but I am not feeling much from Abhaas' portrayal of Shyam. He used to be AMAZING as the villain we all love to hate, but now I am really not seeing the layers behind his portrayal anymore. Maybe it is just me, but I feel as if he holds the emotion just as long as he is voicing his dialogue, but then when someone else is to speak - he becomes an actor merely waiting for his cue.
I hope it improves soon.
Now onto the actual scenes. It really is ironic that just a few months ago, the same Arnav that was searching around for Khushi like a madman. The one who hated to see Khushi in any sort of pain. That is the same Arnav that is now inflicting that pain. I LOVED the dialogue for Khushi today. I've been wanting to see some mention of her feelings for Arnav for a while now (where she isn't under the influence of bhaang), and today was golden.
She really can't believe that he is the same man that she had fallen in love with.
The first Rabba Ve really emphasized this, as you see Khushi almost studying Arnav. Arnav is staring at her intently as if trying to read her intentions, whereas Khushi is studying his face as if trying to find any trace of the Arnav that she fell in love with. Beautifully portrayed by both actors.
Additionally, it is really ironic that Arnav keeps stating that he will not let anything bad happen, however he is the one who is causing most of the problems. He really is going to have a big fall from grace when he finds out that for all of his confidence in his abilities - he's never been in control. For those that get angry at his manhandling of Khushi, I just want to point out that THIS is what ASR has always been.
@bold: we are all waiting for his repentance scene... it will happen soon
He isn't the cookie cutter romantic hero. His shades of grey are what differentiate him from ASR and Arnav. I am not saying that the aggression is correct. But for those that can't handle this type of behaviour then, 1) I don't know what show you have been watching since last June because he has been the same way since then 2) Changing this aggression would ruin the character of ASR because the cold-hearted ruthlessness is what makes him ASR. I do appreciate that this show has never tried to glorify his behaviour. We all know that his actions are wrong. Khushi is never deserving of any of it, and even Arnav regrets his behaviour immediately after.
He isn't the sort of love that I would want, but then again neither does Khushi. She's said it time and time again. Shyam had all of the qualities she had wanted in a husband, and ASR has none. However for some reason ASR holds her heart. The same applies to Khushi. Neither can understand it, but they've fallen in love and their hesitance from admitting it to each other is one of the main reasons that neither has been able to come forth with the secrets they are hiding. They don't WANT to rely on each other. They don't WANT to show how important they are to each other. They do not WANT to love each other.
ASR wants to hurt Khushi, but the moment he does - he regrets it. Khushi wants to hate ASR, but she can't no matter what he does. Even after he's wounded her both physically and emotionally, she still can't help but protect him. At this point she feels that the only way the love will go away is if she lets these wounds fester and continues to let him injure her so that the wounds just pile on. They pile on to a point where no bandage can stitch her heart back together. I feel as if we are headed to that point. ASR is going to do something and Khushi will be incredibly hurt by the injury (I mean metaphorically - I don't expect him to injure her intentionally), and that is when she will leave him. Then ASR can find out the truth and the repentance track can begin.
When I first saw the new episode intro I couldn't really figure out the reasoning behind it. But today I do. Whereas in the previous intro, the two were looking towards each other only to turn their backs on each other...their love story - which had just begun resulted in them turning their backs on each other due to this MU. But now, as they both try to walk away from each other - this bond of marriage is keeping them bonded. The closeness that this relation requires is going to bring ArHi to a broiling point, because as much as they try to stop loving each other they will not be able to. Arnav is definitely going to blow, because he does not understand why the image he has of Khushi in his mind (the home wrecker) does not match up with the impetuous, bubbly girl who he impetuously made his wife.
I'm still trying to figure out what Khushi's reaction will be. She does love Arnav enough to forgive him for all that he's done...but i feel as if something will happen that she fill find unforgivable. Something that she will blame him for. Something that she can't excuse. Only then will Arnav realize all that he had, and all that he's lost. Only then will he go to Devi Ma and search for support with his most unlikely ally.
She will forgive Arnav, she will never be able to hodl hime responsible for actions that in way she is at fault at too (she did not tell him abt shyam)..it will be arnav who not be able to forgive himself and she might have to leave him for anjali because she knows that how important anjali is for arnav.
Finally an episode I felt like analyzing!
