Decoding April 16, 2012

Hello everyone...

Well said Tia 👏.. I also think so.. I don't think he can hate her at all, he is in love with her madly.. And the whole point of marrying her is mostly 'to own her, claim her as his property'... rather than the fact to teach her a lesson that she tried to mend up with his sister's life.. if the later were true, a powerful person like ASR could come up with a lot of other options (rather than marrying her, specially when he was against marriage) with his money!!

Today I found something very interesting. Every time Arnav mentions the duration of marriage, it's always 6 months. Even on the last day of 6 months, he will continue to refer the duration of marriage as 6 months. I think his heart refuses to count the days passing as it's getting close to Khushi leaving him.

Now if ASR took over at this point, he would say, for 5 months and X number of days, you are not going anywhere. Which will give us the indication that he is counting the days until he gets his life back. But no, it's always 6 months.

Hello everyone...

I'm back with yet another decoding of IPKKND episode. Shalini has already done a super job of it. So read her analysis... I will add some of my personal observation to it.

Shalini's post: https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/iss-pyaar-ko-kya-naam-doon/2935749/what-i-loved-16th-april-2012

ASR/Arnav - The reason I used both the names is because Arnav is all heart and ASR is all brain... In some ways, he is almost like two person in the same body. Sometimes Arnav takes over and sometimes ASR. When it comes to Khushi, even though he would prefer ASR to take over, more often than not, Arnav ends up being the driving force. The only time ASR takes over is when he is jealous. I wonder how much of his hatred is due to the fact that he doubts Khushi is trying to break up his sister's marriage and how much of it is that he can't tolerate Khushi loving any other man than him. I think that was the reason, he never told Khushi the truth... Because deep down he is scared that if he asks her and she confesses to love Shyam, he won't be able to tolerate that...

Khushi going to her home for a few days. So ASR should think, good riddance. I will get my life back for a few days. But no, Arnav's reaction is you are not going anywhere for 6 months. That remarkably sounds like the excuses my husband makes every time I plan to take a trip down to my mother's home and he is crazy in love with me...

Khushi - By now it's more than clear to anyone with any common sense that Khushi has "Sadda Haq" tattoed on ASR's forehead. He is hers to bug, nag, irritate, take care of and when going to 'Mayka" pack him and take with her. So no matter how much he complains, she has already put her plan in action by getting permission from nani (not that she needs any, but she guessed ASR's reaction). If Khushi did not love him (as some posts claimed), she would say, let him stay here. I will enjoy my freedom at my mom's house. But she is taking her trouble, her property to shout at her, to her own home. Not unlike my response to my husband's excuses.

I guess I can now safely conclude that Khushi and Arnav was in love before marriage but marriage has made that romantic love into much more enduring and caring love. Attraction was always there and it's still as strong as ever. But now they are getting comfortable with each other and show their right to each other more strongly than ever before.

Thanks everyone for commenting/liking my post. Yes, as you guys mentinoned, for ASR, it would not have been difficult to get rid of Khushi. Hell, why marry her himself? He could make any of his employees marry her. That way, she is forever out of his life and his home.But a. When it comes to Khushi's marriage, he is the only obvious choice for Khushi. And b. Why hide the truth? According to him, it's all Khushi's fault. Isn't it better to torture someone mentioning what they have done? But he does not tell her because he is afraid the answer might not be something he can bear to hear.

I thought the mention of 6 months was a blooper. But then I counted the days as it was shown in the show. And it's already two weeks if not more since they got married. But ASR's memory is stuck on 6 months.

I never thought about it from this point of view. I always thought it was a blooper. But it seemed too obvious a point to be a blooper. So maybe you are right. It would be interesting to see Khushi correct him at some point, so we can be sure of this! 😃

Loved your analysis.

I wonder if Khushi will ever correct him..in some ways Khushi reacts just like ASR. I wonder if she feels a kind of pleasure hearing her husband mentioning 6 months instead of 5 months X days. That way she can continue to play husband wife for longer.

Very well said tia.o. Your observations were spot on. ASR/Arnav are very like two people. I like your perspective on why ASR always says 6 month. Never thought of that. Thank you.

very well said!!!!

Tia,
