Hi Sunshine's,
A beautiful episode !!
When I first saw the episode esp Arnav opening that drawer I was strongly reminded of Pandora's box ...cos in a way..Mondays episode saw the opening of the cause, the root of this anger and hurt ..
Second, I was flummoxed on what to write about since we have thrashed about almost everything .. REDUX has spoken about how this is the reconnection of Chotte with Arnav , Heart Vs & Class, Khushi's understanding of Arnav and today's episode was the reiteration of the same but done in a sensitive manner ..
Kudos to Barun for his wonderful acting y'day .. the way he switched roles with such an ease , no wonder half the forum went into mourning when news came that Barun has allegedly signed a movie bec Y'day Barun showed that he makes ASR alive ...Applause to the actors who played Nandini, Maamaji and also Sanaya for that brief second by the door when she comprehends that Arnav is upset .
The episode began with search, Search for something that Arnav has in his possession , his search yields him a unexpected bounty, a painful reminder. A memory which he had been suppressing now bursts out as he finds another memorabilia showing off the love story of Khushi and Shyam !! Arnav's happy bubble bursts and the anger bursts ..but he controls himself now is not the place nor the time for him to react ..
Redux had always said that Arnav's is crossing the bridge and his search for truth will bring him to Gupta's..The place where it all began !!..Today we saw him getting one piece of evidence that Shyam was a known entity in Gupta's house .. He should have begun to wonder whether Gupta's are aware of Khushi's dalliance and If so , how did they accept it.. His mind a whirlpool of confusion but unfortunately his anger and hurt obliterates his rational mind .. A possessive and jilted lover reacts rather than Arnav Singh Raizada..
Loved the subtle touch of the CV's.. Arnav who had begun to peel off the layers , who had begun to emerge now puts back his vest , the mask is back in place..
The Baraat comes , nitpicking , cribbing about all the arrangements made so far, barbed words belittling the Girl's side ...It was a well etched picture of the middle class !! The humiliation n the scorn accepted meekly by the girls side depicts a true picture .
Dil chota nahi karthe & Babua ,Tum teekh hona ; 2 statements !!
One is when Khushi is agitatedly cooking in the kitchen, Buaji comes in fretting that Arnav adamantly refuses to join the celebrations, Khushi comforts Buaji and tries to divert her anxiety by pointing out that Arnav is busy .. Buaji immediately picks on the vibe and probes Khushi , Khushi as usual puts up the wall but not before we understand that her heart has been crumpled yet again by Arnav's bitter words ..simple sentence but giving a ample display of Khushi's tortured heart, hurt emotions and her unceasing love for the man who hurts her at every turn.
The second statement by Garima ...Only a mother can know the inner turmoil of its child even when the child maintains a stoic facade , Garima proved it today when she instinctively realized that something is not right with Arnav , who dared to enquire and was met with courtesy, pilteness and reserved affection...Loved Sobti here !!
As i had mentioned in corn Mother's...The CV's have divided the duties of this two ladies quite neatly... If Buaji will be the messenger who understands Khushi n will highlight and describe Khushi's nature leading to his better understanding then Garima will be the mother who will understand Arnav , even the things unspoken by him and will guide her daughter into better understanding him as well as become the mother to Arnav..
We had mentioned that the Gupta house will be the healing place for Arnav, where Chotte will emerge and his wounds tended coz until Chotte heals Arnav will not be a complete man , The festering wound will always be stinging him .. Today we saw the pandora's box opened .. Chotte emerging and reacting to the taunts thrown on the girl's side ...He was a helpless bystander then , but not today !! he will pick up the cudgels on behalf of the girl, fight for his sister, the sister whom he could not save on that fateful day will get justice through this girl, he will not let this girls life to be trampled and scarred ...Today we are witnessing the first outline of the warrior who will fight for justice, for rights without involving emotions .
Girls, Much Though I would love to write and elaborate on this, I simply am not in the mood to write , Please forgive me, I know I am letting u down .. i'll try to make it up in todays episode .. Feel free to ask anything and I'll try my best to reply..
