Tant, loved loved the episodic analysis. Yes, the difference between the first month wedding completion and their celebrations by the families were so nicely put out. Didn't I tell you that the scriptwriting have become tight and that the track is laid out now at a macro level??? What they need to ponder over is the layout of the micro tracks which will complete the macro one. Also since you have touched the part of Anjali's pregnancy miscarriage and Payal and Aakash's marriage rift which is definitely going to happen and ASR's formal introduction infront of the neighbours, I will not touch upon but will just correct that when the old lady asked him whether he will keep her happy always he didn't utter "Whatever" but it was "NEVER". Yes, the editing team had either overlapped "whatever" to never or it was never because whatever doesn't fit in. Then the neighbors blessed them to stay together for eternity, that is why "Never" fits in. As usual it's TANTASTIC. 👏 👏 👏
Before I get into the serious analysis, I just wanna mention that in yesterday's analysis I forgot to add the "6 Months marriage contract" in the "Purity" part; it just slipped my mind. Yes there are two things that were taken away from Khushi by ASR; one through the "Footage" and the other through "Contract Marriage". Both define purity and also a part of Social Stigma. By looking at today's episode I guess the "Contract Marriage" will come out first and then when the whole truth of Shyaam's involvement in Bauji's paralytic attack comes at the forefront, then the "Footage" issue will come in the picture as that is where everything started. So, just add the "contract marriage" portion also while you remember my yesterday's analysis.
Let's start. Shall we??? Let me take you to the episode on Monday and didn't I tell you that the PH have been laying down the track since that day??? Yes. They have finished the sketching on a bird's eye view but now the toughest job is depicting in an episode on a daily basis; so, we have to be patient in understanding the track and the message hidden in every day's episode. Today also that 5% message was there but it was hidden in such a way that to make a connection was simply next to impossible. And I take this opportunity to thank Purvi (Casper) here who really helped me to think. I said her - the message is "Blackout" and she agreed. Generally Purvi never waits for the analysis basically after my "Raisin" theory as she prefers to know it beforehand 'coz I spin the message while penning down. So, today I messaged her after almost 45 mins, of my blackout message, that "I am turning the table" and you can read it in the analysis. She said - No, tell me now. I then mentioned the message is NOT "Blackout" because that is obvious and it is not only Class v/s Heart but also "CANDOR V/S DECEPTION". She then nodded - Oh yeah !!!
Yes, always remember like the saying - "taali ek haath se nehin bajti" meaning "always consider both the sides of the coin". If ASR needs to understand the difference between Class & Heart then the Guptas and Khushi also needs to understand the difference between ASR & Shyaam - Candor v/s Deception. Yes, here comes Monday's episode when Shyaam said - "Buaji ke ghar mein din kitne aache the, hum raat mein chai leke baatein karte the". That day it clicked me but you cannot just put forward an interpretation; I needed a proof and today I got that. Yes, this track is also about ASR v/s Shyaam because if the Guptas doesn't understand the "TRUE" ASR then how can we justify that when the truth will be out then they will allow ASR to be their "WARRIOR"??? As I always say - nothing happens in this world without a reason and we ought to justify our every actions. Just because he is their son-in-law, he doesn't get the BOD here. He also needs to prove his HONESTY and JUST character, the same way he needs to understand why the Guptas had hidden "Shyaam's truth" from them. It's got to be win-win situation.
"Honesty doesn't always pay, but dishonesty always costs" ~Michael Josephson
Shyaam Maohar Jha - the person whose appearance can portray the picture of an honest man; a man whose every word been spoke seems soothing to one's ears; a man whose honesty shows in his speech; a man who cares for his acquaintances; a man who seems noble and docile; a man who is a friend in need; a man who will listen endlessly to your pains and will sit beside you night after night to accompany you when you are busy with work; a man who can sacrifice his time for you; a man who manages multiple world with finesse; a man who knows the formula to win over one's heart within a fraction of a second. Yes, that man is Shyaam Manohar Jha.
When Khushi was being humiliated by the public due to the video release then a man appeared who saved her honor and integrity. A man who saved her and her parents from the gazing eyes and street goons was thanked by Shashiji and Garimaji. This man made a comeback to Khushi's life and with all his charming traits even started to live with them under one roof as a family member. He took care of Khushi's needs, Buaji's needs and even offered his help to the daily chores. Soon he became the apple of Buaji's eye so much so that she suggested this man to be Khushi's life partner. Today's episode took me to that day, when Shyaam brought some groceries for Buaji and family and when Buaji was surprised he said - "Buaji hum ne kuch nehin kiya, aap ne humare sar par haath rakha jo hai". Who in the world won't be impressed with this man??? Anyone would. Anyone will praise his upbringing, isn't it??? This is how each and every day he managed to impress this family to satisfy his motive and yes, he did have a motive and that is why all he did was simply a "PLOY".
Let's look at the day when Khushi came to know about Shyaam's true identity. That day when the entire Gupta family faced this multi-faceted human being, then it was Buaji who said - "humri aankhen itni badi galti kaise kar gayi, arre Sashi Babua hum pe itna bharosa kare aur humne yeh kya kiya". We saw the fall of a Devil and that day his true facet was out in the open. After what all he had done can he ever win back his position in the eyes of Guptas'??? Will he ever??? NO and this dishonesty will cost him his whole life.
"Candor is a proof of both a just frame of mind, and of a good tone of breeding. It is a quality that belongs equally to the honest man and to the gentleman" ~ James F. Cooper
Arnav Singh Raizada - A suave, polished, intelligent, self-made, Harvard Grad who believes in making his own destiny. A man who is candor, straightforward, honest, principled yet have the belief that he not only changes his own destiny but have the capability to change other's as well. He is the man who is responsible for their misery and who brought them on the roads. A man who will never be liked by anyone in their first interaction, a man who is proud, workaholic and egoistic; a man who is not loquacious and would never try to portray himself to anyone as one; a man who dares a hoot about anyone yet he is helpful when needed and never will ever advertise this quality of his; a man who doesn't understand human values and when he does realize he have done a mistake he regrets; a man who never thinks of the consequences before any work; a man who doesn't care a damn of what others have opinion of him. This is Arnav Singh Raizada.
Let's see how he was introduced to the Gupta family. Yes, you have guessed it correct. It was guest house sequence and that day he rescued Khushi and brought her home. By this time he had done NOTHING good to this family that the Guptas will ever even look at him with respect. That's what happened and he was attacked verbally by both Payal and Buaji. Buaji said that day - "agar humri bitiya ko kuch ho gaya toh hum tumra band bajai debe" and Payal showed him the door. Even then also this man didn't do any good to be in the good books of the Guptas. Did he try any harder to change the opinion he already had in the eyes of the Guptas??? Did he??? No he didn't, because he gives a damn about others opinion. That's how he is and that is how he acts. Period.
Today also the same thing happened. When he married Khushi did he even bother to come to the Guptas and ask for absolution??? It was not alone Khushi's fault but his also right??? Did he ever realize about this family what they will face when the contract of 6 months will be over??? Did he ever take into consideration that whether this family is financially sustainable or not??? He didn't and even today when he got the AC, he just did it for his own comfort; he didn't even think even before justifying "main jaane ke baad yeh sabke kaam ayenge" that how this family who cannot even afford to change a "broken mirror", how the hell they can afford to pay the electricity bill of the AC??? Did he ever think that being a Harvard Grad??? No he didn't. He didn't even realize that he was "Insulting" the Guptas by bringing in the AC. He is straightforward and he never does anything just to be in the "Good books" of others but yet he is the one who helped them paying their medical dues and yet did he even take pride in that??? No. he respects the elders but that doesn't mean his character is changed. When the family showed their hurt in a subtle way, he somewhere was not able to justify them his behavior as he is not used to. In Raizada Mansion, no one dares to even ask for clarification from him, even his Di so why will he ever think that he needs to justify the Guptas. If I put myself in his shoes, then he won't, he never had and today also he didn't. He just lacks this "QUALITY' in him and this is why this track fits in. For Arnav and Khushi and also the Guptas. They need to understand the character persona named -"Arnav Singh Raizada" and why he is different than "Shyaam Manohar Jha".
He knows that he was never their eye candy boy but this is the truth. The Guptas need to realize what Arnav is and what makes him Arnav Singh Raizada and then, only then, they can allow him to be their "Warrior" otherwise the story line cannot be justified. Just because he is their Son-in-law, he doesn't get the liberty to walk away sabotaging Khushi's life with the footage released and with the contract wedding. There should be an understanding and as Arnav needs to know the difference between Class and Heart to justify himself why the Guptas had hidden Shyaam's truth from him and Anjali, the same way Guptas also need to understand Arnav to justify themselves why Arnav acts in an impulsive way and what is the reason behind his impulsiveness. Then and only then, each can forgive the other and he can be their "Warrior" when the time will come for "Crude truth is always better than a Lie".
Let's come to my earlier message that I was actually intended to write at first - "Blackout". This scene straight took me to the second episode and also made me realize that first the "Contract Marriage" will be out to the Guptas and then the "Footage" clipping fiasco.
That day it was Payal's wedding. Khushi went to fight against dowry with Payal's insistence but it was her fate she met with the mighty Mr. Arnav Singh Raizada and because of him the groom left the holy Mandap. When Khushi returned see witnessed the whole neighbors accusing her to be the "Cause" for Payal's fate; her family had to face the verbal torture and abuse from the society; she faced the wrath of her family members for not involving them in this agenda; that day she and her family had to face the society and the only culprit was the mighty Arnav Singh Raizada. That day we witnessed one "Blackout". But in the end it was because of this culprit today Payal is happily married to Aakash and yet no one knows that the "Destroyer" that day became the "Savior" now.
Today again the same indication was given. When Arnav wanted to switch on the AC the society power cable could not even take the "Load". The electrician said - "load badh gayi hain, jab bhi koi nayi machine aata hain, pata inhein hi chalta hai sabse pehle". Yes, "Load" which means the "Blow" that is going to hit the Gupta family pretty soon. When the technicians accused of the walls being old then Garimaji uttered - "nehin nehin deewar pukhta hain, itna vajan le legi" and Buaji said - "suno ghar bhale hi purana hain, leki humri tarha majboot hain'samjheio". The blow of another daughter's marriage is going to hit them pretty soon but they will survive this one too for this time they will be not alone and there will be Arnav beside them. This time also the "Destroyer" will be their "Savior".
Yes, the society will stigmatize Khushi this time too but the "LOAD" will be taken by Arnav mostly. He will and that is why we saw two different pictures today. They got the blessing to be together for eternity and we saw them crossing the paths as there will be separation inevitably but when the blackout happened we saw both Khushi and Arnav staring at it from inside the house whereas last time it was Khushi alone who had faced the wrath of the society from outside and facing the house. This means when the truth will be out and after the repentance Arnav will be with Khushi to fight against the "Evil". A very beautiful comparison it was, by the creative team. 👍🏼
