IP REDUX ; Labyrinth !!

Updated:-

Beautiful beautiful beautiful episode. Now this is called "Scriptwriting". Today's episode gave me the confidence that 4 Lions knows how to design an episode. The tracks I have already laid yesterday right??? So, now they have done their brainstorming and are focused on the micro tracks. Oh well, here I need to say something to all of you.

My analysis generally consists of various processes. Sometimes I talk about the message, sometimes it's about the loops, sometimes it's about metaphors and analogies and innuendos, sometimes it's about the track layout etc. When I watch an episode, then I realize what the story teller had conveyed to the audience. I DO NOT predict or say anything. Whatever they show I try to pick the puzzle pieces and put it together; this is how the tracks are understood or deciphered. Anyone can do that and if anyone of you has a problem with that then let me know. The Creative team changes the track due to circumstances; obviously it's not in my hands as I am not involved in story making but I can figure out that the changes happened. Like I said on last Thursday Maami will be the one to find out about Bubbli and clear the issue and also Saturday ME helped me to understand that Payal is not leaving; then Shyam - Khushi with Fables and Hide and Seek . I have described to you all how did I arrive on that, isn't it??? I try to keep it crystal clear regarding my solution to a problem so that you can be clear too. Isn't it???Having said that I also made it pretty clear that don't take me on my face value rather judge me and then believe me or disapprove me like the way I never take the CVs on their face value. I hope I am making sense here. If I have said, there is no "Wooing track" that means the CVs have not decided on it yet and the moment they'll decide on that I will be the first person to decipher and declare that, right??? So, don't take me as this is my story telling; I have no say in it as this is what is going on the author's mind. I am just here to help you understand the episode. If you don't like it then I will be more than happy to QUIT analysis as I never wanted to analyze in the first place; Tant forced me to step into analyzing. Since then many have asked me to write, so, I am here. If I did offend anyone with my analysis then I am sorry and let me know so I can quit.

Now to the second issue. I have been getting many PMs where I am told not to link the scriptures with a daily soap; as this is not how it works on SP Hindi channel. I have replied couple of the PMs that it is not me who is purposefully linking them to the story line. I see a pattern and if there is a pattern involved then I use it. This is called solving a puzzle. Also at the same time I requested to all of you to take the theme of the story or the idea of the story; this is not the actual Holy story that the creative team is projecting here; they are just using it as an idea. Like the "Tilak" scene between Arnav and Khushi. They took the scene from Judaai but used it in their own way, isn't it??? Same way, ideas can be taken but the difference is how they are designed. We should appreciate that they are following a nice pattern here and not judge them by being unconventional, right??? They are not offending any Holy characters here. Let me explain.

We all at some point have thrown a party, right??? When we organize a party then what is the first thing we generally do??? We chose the "Theme" of the party, right??? then we make a budget and invitees, etc. to start. But, when we choose a "theme" then how we move forward to that??? Can anyone tell me??? We have a goal to achieve, right??? We design the party according to that theme, be it masquerade theme, retro theme, cocktail theme etc etc. Each and every things are based on that theme, isn't it??? Be it the decoration, or the food, or the invitation cards or the ambiance, everything. Do we deviate from that theme??? No right???

The same way when the Creative Team does design a track, they have chosen various themes and various ideas; the Macro layout is already sketched but they need to connect it with the micro tracks. How??? This is not an easy task.

Today's episode is done so brilliantly that when I will peel the layers of their "Brain Storming" then you will understand how it works. You need a theme which is an idea and then all the scenes are needed to fit according to the ideas. These are called "Sub sets" as in Statistics. We need various subsets to fit in the entire "SET". It is not an easy task, like organizing an event. You have to put the pieces in such a way that it is placed in the exact position. When they did the metaphoric wedding, they did it with that theme right??? Did they deviate at all??? No. they didn't.That time also I said it's Metaphoric wedding and it was. Indeed till the Grihapravesh happened from the Temple. When I said, they are using Class v/s Heart track, many were skeptical about it. But didn't they prove that??? They did right??? The class v/s heart is done now and the CVs are not even touching it. Isn't it??? Right now all the tracks I have laid out as you all know but they still need the micro tracks (sub sets) to complete each macro track (Set). Believe me or not each track has their own theme and they are walking towards that. They are using the fables all the tracks and confirming them with numbers. Remember each number is distinct with each character here and this is where the beauty lies. You always need to make a pattern for everything. The "Repentance", "Opponent", "Separation", "Redemption", "Will" and "New beginning" is been portrayed with numbers from the beginning of this track. Just notice that. It started with 12, 36, then 40, then 1, 10, 3, 56, and couple of more today. Isn't it??? But if you notice closely then you will see the difference in the numbers on how they have associated with each character or groups of characters and backed them by scenes and dialogues. This is called "Brilliance". The CVs are NOT using numerology here. It's not me BUT the CVs who are using Scriptures and Numbers. They are using the "Scriptural meaning of the numbers". 4 Lions believe in "Aesthetic" way of storytelling and I have always said that. I am guaranteed today when I will describe Khushi's "Dream sequence", you will understand what is meant by "Aesthetic" way of storytelling.

Hmmm. From where shall I start here??? Fine let me start with Khushi and Shyam scene. Didn't I tell you that it's the hide and seek and fox and the goat story going one. Soon it will also be wolf and the lamb story. But this is the macro track. We need the mini tracks to make it work. The papers will come to Khushi anyway but there is a major hint they threw which I confirmed already about the "Climax MU" that Shyam will create in Arnav's mind at the kidnapping place. I will touch on that later. Now, to the mini track for the hide and seek. How many of you remember the "Baazigar" movie??? I guess all of you??? Now how many of you remember "Johnny Lever" there??? Does it ring a bell??? Remember every side character in any show is roped in to help the leads of the show in their mission. What did "Masala Maama" say here??? He is a forgetful character. Right??? Here we go a mini track for Khushi to gain "WISDOM" about Shyam's game plan.

Why "Masala" And Naani said "Tarka maar ke"??? Hmm interesting isn't it??? What is masala??? It means "Drama" and tarka maar ke is "Twist" like we call seasoning. So, the drama will be unfolding but with a "Twist". Well of course it won't be any profit of Shyam. Isn't it??? But what is the "Twist"??? Now let me take you to the Pool side where Khushi and Shyam were accusing each one on the lost file. Shyam said - "Apni gair zimmedari ke liye aap humhein doshi mat thehraiyye Khushiji". Now this is the HINT for the climax MU. Who all remembered the "Image of the File" that Khushi took when she was hiding the file in the flower tub??? Remember??? I knew it will come one day and how Shyam will try to blacken Khushi with this one image. This image is useful as well as harmful for Khushi; because this image will help Khushi now to get to the details of the file if she doesn't acquire the original copies and on the other hand Shyam will use this as an "important" tool to ill repute Khushi in front of Arnav. The confirmation came from the message which was exchanged between Khushi and Arnav's mobiles. Shyam is the person who knows about this "Image" and he will definitely use this when he will lose the papers. Also here I suspect the when the "Terrace Confrontation" will happen it will be Arnav, himself who will clear the MU and disprove his "Mrs. ASR" dialogue - "Main aachi tarah samajh sakta hoon kitna mushkil hota hain Mrs. Arnav Singh Raizada ban ke jo paisa, aaram aur shaan mil raha hain usse jaane dena ... Koi "PAGAL" hi hoga jo isse chod dega".

Because if Shyam doesn't try to ill repute Khushi first then when ASR will witness the terrace confrontation of Khushi and Shyam, how will Arnav eat his words??? It's not about Khushi leaving but it's about understanding how Khushi was used by both of these men. How even after ASR accusing her as a gold digger this simple and honest girl still wanted to prove her right??? This dialogue is for ASR to understand his "Real" Khushi and what she is made of. This dialogue is for ASR to realize that even for a moment he believed Shyam when he accused of Khushi being with him all along. Shyam will do that he has to like Riya said yesterday, "Sky is the darkest just before dawn". Like I said, "the candle always glows brighter before it ends". Same way if the MU will be intense just before it gets cleared completely and Shyam will gloat just before he blurts out for he will dig his own hole.

Before I talk about Khushi scene, let me talk a bit about the confirmations on some tracks I described yesterday. They confirmed about "Aakash being the protector" of the WILL and also the "Mary and Elizabeth" track. When Bubli came back to sleep then Aakash started to tell her the bedtime story. What was the Story about??? "Princess and Silver Coin". Isn't it??? Remember my analysis where I described about Steel v/s Glass??? It was the "Reality Bites" on May 1^st. I described about Anjali too and related why she is associated with "Silver" because the biggest characteristics of Silver is - "It is the beacon of light in the darkness". Yes, this was for Anjali that she will her ray of hope in this baby where her world will be shattered with the trust of her husband Shyam.

But, but, but, here is one of the biggest hint for AR 36 K. Well, I have already deciphered it for you yesterday but today see another hint. If I wouldn't have done yesterday then definitely would have done today. What did Aakash say??? "Princess had a silver coin". Now this is the beauty of the scriptwriters. They had given the hint but still kept it under wrapped. Have you heard of the saying??? "The baby born with a silver spoon in her/ his mouth"??? yes, yes, yes. This is the hint for the actual Will and see who said it??? It's Aakash. So, the actual WILL indeed is in the name of "nanhi Khushi". Didn't I say that Aakash will be the protector here??? I said it may be that he will have the POA; I don't know what exactly he will be the powers with but definitely it will be with Aakash because Shyam will never ever realize that Aakash will be the protector of the Will. I am not from Law, so don't know whether it is required that when one makes a Will they need any one as a guaranter or not. Anyone from law field can throw light on this.

The Princess is also Khushi, which I will touch later.

There is another proof again that it is about the baby and except Anjali and Shyam everyone in the family will know Shyam's treachery. Even Aakash. I needed this confirmation and they have provided today. Just see the scene where Khushi comes down stairs when she panicked about Arnav. Then by the stairs we have seen all except Mama, no I am not talking about masala mama, but actual Mama. (I think because the Actor who plays Mama was not there for shoot, so he was absent).

Read me very carefully as I'll explain this scene. Above I explained about the "Number" etymology right??? Here when Naani enquired about the flight timing, Aakash said - 7 and a half hrs. right??? Just notice in that scene we didn't have Anjali and Shyam.

Let's come to the lounge area. Here also when Naani asked how many hours is the flight journey, it was Aakash who said - 8 hrs. Not, Shyam, not Khushi, but Aakash. When Nani asked what is the time, it was Shyam who answered - 3 (teen ). Not Aakash, not Khushi. Here is the explanation.

The CVs are running parallel stories here. Let us see the significance here:-

For Aakash and rest of the clan, except Anjali and Shyam, it is both 7.5 and 8. All of these have heard 7 and 8. Why??? Always remember to ask this question??? Seriously Why??? What is the significance??? I'll tell you.

The number 7/8 together form a remarkable connection. It denotes - "Child" and "Super Abundance".

Now, you got it??? Another hint why Aakash will be the protector of the Will and also the baby along with everyone else and Shyam will be kept aloof of it. Proven right??? This is called script writing. Who will be present in the scene and who will deliver which dialogue??? It is very important when you designing a scene because the audience doesn't have any clue and doesn't need one. But, this scene and every scene day showed their "Focus" on the track. Why 7.5 hrs and not 7??? Because Shyam's true facet will be disclosed after 6 months of the pregnancy and at the time of Social Stigma. As long as they are clear, we should be clear that the serial will deliver what promised. The Creative team should be focused on where they are heading towards and here they are that's all I can say.

Let's see the second connection. Shyam was associated with 2 numbers, right??? 8 and 3. Yes, that 8 which Aakash uttered was in the lounge and for Shyam, Khushi and Arnav. Now, remember the "Mary and Elizabeth" Story that I described yesterday. I said, Anjali will learn about Shyam through Bauji. And here you go with the confirmation today.

Number 8:- It is the number of Redemption, salvation, resurrection, and new birth/regeneration.

When Anjali will learn about Shyam, he will be sent to pass the testing phase as per number 40, right??? So, here it is. He also said 3 right??? So, when the last 3 months Anjali will be taken care by Khushi till her delivery, Shyam will have to go through repentance and redemption. Whether he will succeed or not, that time will tell. I don't think he will, but the hint was for the track to happen, which the creative team has confirmed.

On another note, 3 also mean in the scripture that - Saul was blinded for 3 days as per Act 9:9. This can mean Shyam will be aloof of the fact that Khushi has the file for 3 days when he will lose them.

Let's come to Khushi. I will explain the dream sequence and then conclude with the numbers 11, 3, 4 and 8 with it so you all can understand. Read me carefully here.

When Khushi saw the clock first, it was 11 pm. Then she tried to sleep with the subconscious thoughts of the lost file and Arnav. In the deep sleep she dreamed to be in a labyrinth; being scared by the nightmare she woke suddenly and realized that it was a dream. Khushi then checked the clock and realized it was 3 am. How many hours she was in deep sleep??? 4 hrs. Isn't it???

Here lies the beauty of the creative team. When Khushi was in the dream, she only picked up the things associated with her and Arnav - Pearls, Key and Payal. Did she pick any Bangles??? No, because she doesn't know yet that those were his Mom's. rest all she is aware of they are associated with them. Ok fine. But the bangles that Arnav gifted her, why not those??? Were those bangles not memories of their togetherness??? Why??? Why??? Why???

Let me ask you a question here??? Did she pick up all the things from a box in consciousness??? No. all these happened in her dream. If she would have found the treasure box from the cupboard, then it would mean Arnav's affection for her. It would mean reality. But, it was not shown that way and neither Khushi even had thought any of it before sleeping. Isn't it??? When she prepared to sleep it was 11 pm.

Number 11:- This number denotes - imperfection, unfulfillment and disorganization, incomplete.

She was worried for the incomplete task that she had on hand; she was worried for she failed tonight; she was worried for she lost the papers based on which she could prove her right in the eyes of the only man that matters to her. In those thoughts, she realized all the good moments, all the memories that was with Arnav; with those thoughts she fell asleep. In the dream, she found the Pearls, Key and Payal. What are they actually??? Just their togetherness??? Then why she didn't get the bangles on the floor??? I'll tell you why???

Pearls:- have you heard of the phrase - "Pearls of Wisdom"???

Key:- it denotes "Door", "Path"

Payal:- it signifies "Love", "Newly Bride".

Silver:- Metal and not Gold, because gold is considered as God's metal.

In one sentence, all the above described as - "Khushi will get the wisdom to find the path to her love". Yes, Khushi will use her pearls of wisdom to find the key to reach to her Husband". Payal is always considered as the gift to the newly bride; here Payal is their love. Isn't it aesthetic??? There are some more. She slept for 4 hrs and woke up at 3 am.

Number 4:- This represents God's creative works, especially works associated with the earth.

Number 3:- This number is one of the perfect numbers. This number denotes "Completeness".

Hence, Khushi slept with the thoughts of incomplete work but God's gave her the wisdom and showed her the way to complete it. Isn't this beautiful??? This is why I said, See the connection here. Then came number 8 in the lounge area; as I mentioned above, number 8 is "Ressurection / rebirth" and also "Repentance / Redemption". Does it ring a bell??? Yes, yes,. The Creative team has combined Sleeping Beauty and Repentance track of Arnav and this will end with the Wedding track. Arnav will wipe away the Social Stigma also to give her the "Purity". Remember my "Rangoli" Analysis??? That is why we saw the Payal and not the bangles. For Punjabis it's Chuda I guess, so logically for Khushi it's the Anklet. How did Aakash started the story??? Once there was a Princess and she had a silver coin... Who is the princess and who had the silver coins given by Arnav??? Both is Khushi, remember??? She had the FB of Pearl and Key (Mannat) and not Payal, because Pearl is where she met her love and her mannat of a fairy tale wedding. Remember number 10 I already described yesterday on their "New Beginning" ???

Here cometh the Fairy Tale wedding of a "Princess" with her "Prince".

This is why "Sheesh Mahal" was shown and "Lukhnow" was mentioned". Now, this is called "SCRIPT WRITING". Enjoy !!!
