"It says much for the show that an episode shot with BD , rife with discontinuity, shoddy direction is still hailed as a good episode ... A reflection on how badly things had got out of control.."

I can't help but agree with most of this statement. However, I have to wonder, is it shoddy direction, crappy editing, or a mixture of the two? Why is it that only this show has constant bloopers? You don't really see it in other shows. The same holds true for body doubles; other shows, one has a hard time differentiating between body doubles and the actors. Again, one is forced to ask, is it because the directors are doing a fabulous job shooting or because the editing team edits the shots in a way that one is unable to tell? The constant bloopers and blatant use of body doubles need to be taken care of. Neither of these things should be salient.

So listen up PH, director, and editors--> FIX IT!

We've been harping on the CVs for the lack of logic and continuity and I figured it was time to give them a break for once. Not that they did a perfect job today; ASR might be back, but his brain is not and Khushi's dumb blonde syndrome has got me wanting to scratch my eyes out. However, since I didn't have to put up with '1OO ways to annoy ASR' or something equally OTT, I won't go crazy on the CVs today.

I'm pretty content with everything else you've said Tanthya. I love the symbolism you found during the Akash-Payal scene (equal entity); I would've never seen it in that perspective.

Sathya ur choice of words are always always brilliant...it gives the episode a truly different meaning completely..

I personally feel that today was long overdue...what happened should have happened a long time back...the CV's have made a totally mockery of the characters...

Both Barun and Sanaya are brilliant actors...and today their acting skills were rewarded...

Arnav Singh Raizada is back in his form and so is Khushi...yes there is going to be a little more pain and distances brewing between them...but its needed for the track...its not all bed of roses all the time...

These emotions have to come pouring out...and so will the bitter truth come out too...

And Shyam..he is just getting conniving data by day...but he is the key to all this...the more he pushes Arnav's buttons..the sooner he will learn the truth..

IPKKND is a intense drama and I am so glad to see it coming back..

thanks Sathya...always a delight reading ur posts..

Imagine how desperate I must be that I am typing this post thru my BB browser :D

Your post was fantastic, Sathu!!! Lot of symbolisms to decode and the story is finally getting back on track...

Welcome back IPKKND and high voltage drama!!! We missed you :)

It so true that we were truly in bad shape if we were able to forgive the direction of today's episode. For me what mattered was that the war is back on again. Arnav has triggered Khushi's mind again. Going by the umpteen taanas we gave the CV's since Friday, I think they wlll NOT give Khushi amnesia again ;)

The comedy track will have to be sidelined to focus on the real love story now. Evil's incarnate Shyam Kameena Jha is in that house and the truth has to be out in front of Arnav or Khushi. Their happiness seems tainted with him around.

I liked that Khushi did not let him touch her. I want that the next time Arnav touches Khushi is when he apologizes to her.

How much must I have gotten annoyed with the comedy track that I am actually looking forward to the MU... LOL!!!

Awesome work, Tants!!!!

*edit* (my post from different thread)

You know since I was little, I have made this conscious efforts to see rom-coms, light hearted stories with happy endings and outright comedies. It was basically self-preservation since I did not like unpleasantness...

ENTER Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon... 🤗

I cannot believe that I was actually rooting for the scenes of anger / hatred / passion that we saw last night. I enjoyed Arnav's anger, Khushi's tears, Arnav's heartlessness, Khushi's pain, Arnav's realization and Khushi maintaining her stance by not letting her touch him. You go girl!!! Has IPK reduced me to a sadist 🤣!!!???!!!

That would have been the quickest redemption by the Creatives of any show ever. See our Forum and IP Redux ka power!!! We changed the story around over a weekend man!!! I would like to thank each and every person on IP Redux and across the forum who firmly put their thoughts across to wake up the CV's and PH.

Long Live India-Forums!!!!

Coming to the episode, we are right back on track from the last fight they had on the second day of the wedding (mutual "I Hate You" declarations) and Arnav letting the "You have hurt me" slip. I think we can negate the comedy and light hearted scenes over the last 2 weeks now since the misunderstandings and hatred track is going to intensify. Now what we need is some well planned out MU's that really put Khushi in to hot water since that is what will lead to Arnav's redemption track later which also be a delight to see.

I loved how the supporting actors came to the fore last night. This is what we want, a fine balance between screen presence of all the actors and also romance / drama and comedy... Loving it!!!!

How Barun and Sanaya overshadow an entire episode within 9 minutes is what fascinates me. They both are back to doing what they are mindblowing at!!! The depiction of pain, trauma, dilemmas and confusion was done very well. Some dialogue that took the cake for me were:

"Woh meri Di hai. Main unhe kuch hone nahi douga." These are golden nuggets for Khushi that Arnav is giving away. It will help her to connect the dots.

"Vishwaas nahi hota ke aap wahi insaan jisse..." Hold on to that Arnav!!! Redemption ke time par kaam aayega!!! (Credit: BarunForever for reminding me of this one)

"Nahi! Hum issi ke layak hai na? Toh bardaasht karne deejiye humhe. Humhe toh isse bhi badi saza milni chahiye." Heartwrencing, painful and beautiful all at one time!!! 😭

"Khushi..." Priceless. Each time he says that with concern, I choke up!!!

"Kya hum wahi karege jo aap humhe kahege?" Good going Khushi.

"Haan." 😆 You crack me up Arnav!!!

All in all, fabulous start to the week and cannot wait for track to unfold...

Once again, welcome back IPKKND!!!! ⭐️

Great post 👏

As usual I wait for your post to help make sense of the episode. Looks like we are finally back on track with the so called hatred track. I really liked your view of the whole Arnav-Khushi scene in and out of the bedroom today. I agree with you that it didn't make sense for him to drag her out by the pool to continue the fight, when they could have easily just shut the bedroom door and had at it.

What I really don't get is how Anjali is always around to interfere in what happens between her brother and HIS wife. Is there anything called privacy in the Raizada house? Shyam tells her that they are having a fight and off she goes to stick her nose in their business!! 😡 Arnav and Khushi are having an argument in THEIR bedroom and NOT in the main part of the house where everyone can hear/see them, so doesn't that mean that it's nobody else's business?? Oh no, snake and his wife come charging in as if they have a right to be there and try to sort out what's supposed to be strictly between the newly married couple!! I'm glad that Arnav and Khushi just stonewalled them.

The other part of this episode that I didn't get is how nicely Anjali gives Snake the money and says that anything her baby daddy wants he gets. Hello!!! Hubby dear just told you that he doesn't have enough money in the account...heard of saving money anyone?? Well, why bother about low funds when brother dear can spring a few grand for an unnecessary watch. Of course, that may mean you can't move into your so called dream house anytime soon, but who cares about being independent when you can mooch off your brother!😡

One last senseless thing. Snake bought a watch using his Saale Saabs money which he took from his doting wife. Now, yes he bought a watch, yes he used money that belonged to ASR and yes he bought it inspite of ASR not transferring money into the joint account, but tell me this...who cares? Saale Saab doesn't know about it and he won't know unless Snake goes around volunteering the time to everyone. So, how is this a victory over the enemy if the enemy doesn't care? Things may make more sense if they decide to do something with this watch thing later on, but that is to be seen😵

Phew!!! Sorry for the long rant, but much as I love this serial, some things I just don't understand. Your post and Doods post help unravel some of this craziness...which is why we all wait for you both to post. Thanks for the PM.😊

What a brilliant episode today... Your analysis was spot on too! :D

I really liked this bit " Another thought strikes , Arnav after revealing the truth of her actions to Khushi, condemns her and throws her out of his life, bruising her but not cutting her, cutting the bond between them but truth cannot be kept quiet any longer, it emerges triumphant ..Arnav rushes back repentant, guilty to tend to Khushi's wounds but Khushi has had enough , She will not be toyed around anymore, angrily rejects his ministrations ..She not only punishes him but also herself .."

Use of BDs was very disappointing!

Thanks fr this awesome analysis 😊 So finally someone somehwere has finally woken up the CVs frm their deep slumber.

Luved this part: I really liked the way this was shot, Anjali comes in like a Arrow let out of the bow , followed by the archer Shyam who sent the bow ..The arrow tries to pierce through the veil but is not successful ..Khushi blocks Anjali and sends her back and indirectly Shyam empty handed thereby proving that come what may , Khushi will always shield Arnav despite the many bruises he may give ...

Also, how u explain ASR's trait of cleaning up the mess & moving on.

@Tanthya, in ur analysis of the last episode u had mentioned how the main Director of the show had not changed. LM was just the second unit director. But since Holi I hv noticed a new Creative Director being mentioned in the credits (though dont know exactly when this came into effect) Earlier it was Megha Kumar & now Shivangi Chauhan. And there r various instances in the show which prove that the creative team has undergone a few changes.

One question. Pls answer. On the one hand Shyam is trying to convince Arnav he is trying to make things right with Anjali. Why did he come with Anjali to Arnav's room and persisted they were having a fight?? What is Arnav supposed think about him?? Arnav also said he won't believe khushi. So he probably does not believe what khshi said under Bhang ??
