Tanu what a fantastic post and I have to concur with Soni, it was so much more fun to read your post that the episode itself!👏
I kinda liked the episode too for various reasons. In the competitive teleworld of daily soaps, filler episodes are a must! How the hell would the show last for more than a year otherwise..oh well unless you have 10 families related, unrelated in the show or the show takes a leap of 10 years where suddenly the Heer Ranjha of the show become parents trying to mind chunnu munnus! Coming to the point, IPK CVs are smart! I am sure they do not intend to do that and hence filler episodes like these at its best. What makes them smarter is the fact that they know how to bring a smile to our faces! Be it mamiji doing Chikani Chameli or ASR maroying dialoges like " Excuse me Nani, par Ranjha male tha" ! It is entertaining, period. The icing or the whipped cream on the frappuccino is Barun Sobti. They have nailed it all!
Having given the bhashan above I will proceed to give my 2 cents!
- I agree with you, Saums-- the build up to the chemical fancy dress is good! I will take the whole set up from Devyani Raizada, where in ASR becomes the chauffer, the phone battery dies down, Akash is dhamkofied that he will not be able to see PayaliJI's thumkas! If ASR was supposed to give those 7 distinct expressions, all is taken in good spirit! More details on expressions coming up
-Khushi saves ASR's a** in front of Nani! But did ASR realize that she is playing along in this farce of a marriage for his sister..I hope he does remember all this when the time comes for guilty as charged!
-Shyamwa was in a suit! Maybe I am wrong but I dont remember seeing him in one ever! Oh well that is not the point! Like I have always said he is the lamest villian on SP, and you have said it there, why would ASR go out without a wallet! HUH? DUH?!
-Where exatly is the Raizada mansion? Pandara Road, Jog bagh, Lodhi Road, Golf Links- why is the India Gate and nearby places only shown? Not relevant but just curious being a Delhite!
-Mamiji doing the chikani chameli was Hilarious! Khushi joining in was too good! And the fact they showed that mamiji and Khushi may meet half way someday to give a hi-five brought a smile on my face too!
-Naniji becoming the sutradhar to the week to come,( just referring to the spoilers) was so cute!
- Khushi looked pretty in the Heer dress! What awaits us is a bigger handsomeness which we all will probably salivate for a long long time is ASR dressed as Ranjha!
With the bullet points done, here is a special para for the the Rub away moment..like literally!
They bump into each other, they bang their heads, Khushi catches the sexy head and bangs it again (oh cmon dont we all do that for good for nothing reasons), beautiful pardas fall and Rub away happens! Just like that and there everyone on IF and kabootarland drool..:)!
Coming to the list of expressions!
-"Jani yeh chaku hai, lag jaye toh khoon nikal aata hai.." the teasing or rather commanding look!
- Next was the popat look when Khushi says "chal zara zara sa zara zara sa hatke" by carrying the heave bags!
- The classic WHAT THE look when nani is all playful and keep the keys with her so that he stays to watch his wife perform. *Jab se hui hai shaadi WHAT THE kar raha hun...aafat gale padhi hai usko nibha raha hun.."
- the epic ASR grin and that twinkle in his eyes look on Chikani Chamli when he is watching the Raizada ladies dance "Ladki badi anjani hai, sapna hai sach hai kahani hai, dekho yeh pagali.."
- the classic Rabba vey oh I love Khushi look.."Rabba vey..."
- You drop it, I pick it everytime, everywhere...the sexy look when he gives her the jhumka and keeps looking at her mudh mudh ke! Lets just sing " jadu hai nasha hai...madhoshiyan.."
-The last HUH? WHAT The? look, it was so unique that I cant even come up with a matching filmy line or song!
Yes ASR's character is a flaky one! But that is why the name Iss pyar ko kya naam doon?! He is fighting this inner turmoil of love! On a day to day basis he is living with the lady who he loves yet abhors! Her vivaciousness, her good nature and ofcourse her angelic face, more so often is weighing more than the betrayl he thinks she has given him and his family. Like Saum and Tanu have already said, he is complicated and by marrying Khushi he has made it even more complicated!
The whole analogy of Heer Ranjha was another brilliant aspect of the episode...and just like the song from the 1970 movie.. ASR is probably in the same situation..
