Hello Peeps.
I know you all must be thinking why I changed the Title from "Sinking Ship" to "The Deluge"; isn't it??? I know. I have a very valid reason for that. In my defense I can say that I figured there not only one message but there are actually 2 messages. Anyway, I will touch on that later on but I will keep this analysis a bit short as I am slightly tied up.
Before I start I really need to address to Gul some points. Whether Gul reads this or not, I don't know seriously but certain things I think she needs to know. I think you have heard of the saying Gul - "One beaten, twice shy". Isn't it??? I have never addressed on the issue earlier regarding Daljeet's whining about the role and threatening to quit. You know why??? Because I thought as a production house you have learnt this fact that whenever you choose a track or select an actor, you know very well how to proceed and certainly don't need advices from an "Amateur" like me. Hence, I never even tried to utter a word against or for it. But today for the sake of other production houses who ever read Redux and I am damn sure people read because always remember that more than your own people it's the opposition who needs to read to get the pulse of your weaknesses. This is where even the channel knows where your fault lies. One advice for you Gul, next time even in your "Wildest Nightmare" don't you dare to think of any pregnancy track because eventually you will end up in sabotaging your own creation. You have done this before and I am certainly sure that you are in the same procedure. Couple of questions I needed to ask you here. Were there not any other tracks than making Anjali pregnant and keep Khushi and ASR get married??? He could have easily married Khushi even if Anjali was not pregnant; my second question is did you even consult with Daljeet first that if the pregnancy track is well accepted by the viewers, then it will be way beyond late to return; did you even hinted her that it might be possible that she will be required to carry a "Baby Bump" in future if the story demands; whether she is ready for such a role or not??? I don' think so you ever even tried to sit with such a discussion and this is the reason she is whining about her role in the story line when we all very well know that this story of IPK is all about Anjali at the centre stage and not Khushi. Yes, the central character is Anjali Jha here rather than Khushi Kumari Gupta. I DO NOT blame the Actor here but I really do blame the PH and their non- transparency here; of course it is the entire responsibility of the PH here to be proactive as right now I am seeing only the "Reaction" of what is happening. Right now, I'm only observing how you all are trying to "Compromise" with the storyline instead of standing firm in the ground. It's been a year that IPK has started and now Daljeet is annoyed that the story is not revolving around her??? Or she is not at the center stage??? Then what happened today??? Everyday all the tracks revolves around her and her only; Khushi's dream wedding sabotaged because of her security; ASR lost his love for a moment because of her only; today we see Shyam is also utilizing her only; where in the hell is Anjali not present??? Everywhere. We had seen so many beautiful scenes with her at the center stage and all the sacrifices are made in this series keeping in mind that her "Sand Castle" doesn't crumble, isn't it??? Now this lady is saying that she is not at the center stage??? Give me a break here, please. The baby track with all the fake miscarriage and baby split is just for the sake of Daljeet's not wanting to wear the baby bump. The track gets changed just to accommodate her wishes from the very beginning and now she thinks that she is not getting the attention. Whenever I analyze, my entire analysis revolves around Anjali and her baby which is the reason all ask me who is important in the series. Is it Arnav and Khushi or Anjali and her baby??? My reply to them was always Anjali and her baby, because they are at the center stage and we should never forget that. Hence, I am seriously angry today and not with Daljeet but with Gul. It was Gul's duty to first get Daljeet acquainted with the future track and then go ahead. If the actor is not ready then you should have taken some other tracks but definitely not the pregnancy one because after getting your viewers acquainted with the track you can never back off and remember this, all your stories will be down the drain if the real miscarriage happens; all the dialogues of Arnav accusing Khushi at the terrace and Khushi's actin thereafter and will hold no meaning and you will be termed as one of the many production houses that came and gone instead of conquering and not only because of the storyline but you will cite an example in the industry that "4 Lions" is one such production house who will start with a pregnancy track and allow miscarriages so that the actors never needed to show a baby bump. Hence, anyone can tackle you and that is the message will be all across Mumbai fraternity. So, enjoy with this new found title of yours but remember never ever again come up with a pregnancy track in life because you don't have the GUTS to handle it and also not every actor have the GUTS of Jennifer Anniston to carry a baby bump in a TV Series and also carry with films. Thanks to Purvi, she fed me with the information that one lead actress in another prime time show on Star also wore Baby Bump just because the story required. I salute the GUTS of that actress. If Daljeet doesn't have the confidence in herself then it is her problem and should not be your problem but the fault is entirely yours and not Daljeet's because she will definitely play with your emotions as your earlier actress from earlier serial did. She had an example set in front of her so Daljeet is following her footsteps, SIMPLE. Whether I will be analyzing in future or not I don't know but this is my forecast to Gul and Co., that every single actress will utilize Gul Khan because she allows them to do so and she is "Not Proactive". The day "Actual Miscarriage" will happen "I am out of IPK" and this is my declaration. Period.
Let's start with the analysis till I will have sanity in IPK. At one hand I so loved the scriptwriting and I seriously wonder does any of the actors know why they were given some certain dialogue and why they were given some certain scenes to enact??? I think it was Redwine, who asked me one day whether the actors really have any idea regarding the brilliance of the story line and I replied to her in a comical manner that they don't have the time beyond memorizing the script; but now I seriously have the doubts whether they really have any idea. Any organization that I joined in my career I was always acquainted with their entire business and I really hope that the actors show the eagerness why this particular dialogue needs to be mentioned or the scene is important, etc. etc. today's certain scene were so brilliant and this made me more agitated on why the hell the actors throw tantrums instead of learning the intricacies of the story-line, the brilliance in script writing. For example, look at the fight scene of Arnav with the kidnappers and Shyam sitting and watching at the beginning of the episode. This is the current track going on as in "Arnav's Pretense" and also the "Wolf and the Lamb" and "Fox and the Goat".
I don't think I need to explain more but will. Arnav was blindfolded in that scene and just see the contrast between Friday's fight scene and today's fight scene. On Friday, all the targets of Arnav were perfect whereas today almost all the targets were missed; isn't it??? Did you all realize why???Yes, this is the current track that we are heading towards which will end in the terrace. Notice, all the targets were missed by Arnav even when he was blindfolded whereas on the other hand Shyam was completely seen gloating on his victory, isn't it??? The moment Arnav fell at the feet of Shyam that was the final victory of Shyam; he put his foot firmly on the ground and that moment we witnessed all the FBs of Shyam, isn't it??? On exactly how it started and where it ended, everything. That was FANTASTIC and oh boy, how much I loved the new BG tone, perfect. But, but, but here is the twist in the tale. What happened after the entire FBs of Shyam ended and he came to light and walked towards an "Unconscious" Arnav??? Yes, he PICKED up the black cloth from the ground and looked at Arnav and threw it in anger. Did he do that??? Didn't he??? On yeah, he did. Indeed. This is what is going to happen at the "Terrace Confrontation". Just wait and watch.
Arnav will start his pretense act from now on and he will purposefully make Shyam believe his blindfolded belief and complete faith on whatever Shyam is going to introduce to him; Arnav is going to miss all the targets purposefully to make him believe that he is successful in his mission but Shyam will never realize this until the "Terrace Confrontation" where Arnav and Khushi will recollect all the FBs on how they have tricked Shyam and that is when the blindfold of Shyam will fall on the ground and he will realize the major plan of the "Warrior", Krishna all along. Did you all realize the "Flute" of Krishna when Arnav was missing the targets??? Yes, it was Shyam who did the signals with his hands while the fight was going on. Interesting isn't it??? The "Fox and the Goat" with the "Wolf and the Lamb" have started already and this is how the present track is running.
Well the brilliance is the "Trap" of Arnav is already there, since the beginning. Out of all the FBs the only ones will be contradictory for you all might be the "Will" and what is this new file, isn't it??? Well, let me take you to the Holi episode again. Remember the first time Arnav called Mr. Roy??? It was the episode when Khushi reached AR Creations in search of answers behind the marriage. Now, that day Arnav asked for a help from Aakash as we all know. But then followed the Holi "Subconscious" confession and then we headed towards the episode where Khushi had become Arnav's voice for a day and accompanied ASR to his office, isn't it??? But before heading to the office we have seen the "Will" that Shyam have right now was purposefully asked by Arnav, right??? Since, then I am saying, the Will have no importance here. Then when Arnav and Khushi reached office what Arnav did when Mr. Roy called up??? He snatched the phone from Khushi and informed he'll call back, right??? yup, do you realize why??? I didn't then as it was unclear abt the track, but I do now. Once thing was clear to Arnav after the Holi Confession that - "Khushi is innocent and she is good at heart but at the same time she has the tendency to blurt out everything", isn't it??? Don't I always say that we have the maximum chance of Khushi blurting out the truth about the "6 Months" wedding??? because that's how Khushi is and this is how she works. Generally, to Arnav, it is Shyam who is much more shrewd than Khushi ever can imagine, hence, he never wanted Khushi to learn the details of the Will and also the clause. Today when the advocate came with the "Clause" of the Will, we were shown the reason why Shyam had to keep ASR alive till date. But, did Shyam ever realize why Shyam didn't even try to contradict the clause??? Shyam who is shrewd didn't even think about the clause, that is there is any accidental and doubtful death of Arnav then even Anjali will not be the heir of the property; the first thing that should come is why ASR will even do that to his own sister??? Understand this. This is one such clause and also the answer was in the file himself. If at all ASR dies a doubtful death then the entire property will go to a "trust"; now who the person here heads the "Trust"??? Is it Anjali or Aakash or both Anjali or Aakash. The trust holder will be Aakash and the entire wealth will still belong to Anjali's baby. I have never seen such a villain who doesn't even think beyond what is shown. According to the advocate who got the file, it meant even Anjali will never be the heir in case of ASR's doubtful death. How DUMB a villain can be??? I'll tell this is the time ASR was trapping Shyam in his own web. I always said - "A person never changes drastically" and the day Shyam wanted to convince ASR, he knew there has to be a much bigger motive in the picture. This was planned by ASR and the advocate who managed to show the clause to Shyam was just because ASR instructed Mr. Roy for that much well in advance. All of this will come in the terrace confrontation and we are still good with the Will, it's "AR 36 K" and still holds the same condition.
Remember the Fables analysis??? Where I explained the dialogue - "Chaashni mein lipti rehshyamayi maut ke saath kya raaz chupa hua hain". Let's see what I have said.
Excerpts from Fables May 4th analysis:-
The Innuendo of Khushi - "Safed shirt pe jalebi ki daag ki tarah jiddi hai" means Arnav will punish Shyam by hook or crook as he is stubborn. In this context, the same things gonna happen as Arnav with the help of Buaji will put Shyam in his own trap and that's why it's said - "maut ki meethai" and "Chaashni mein lipti rehshyamayi maut ke saath kya raaz chupa hua hain". Chaashni means - "Sugar Syrup". Arnav and Khushi and Buaji will allure Shyam to fall in the trap and then he will be caught. "Meethe muh ki mauth" means death of a sweet talker which is Shyam. So, here goes where either the cunning fox or the wolf and the lamb story will work where the lamb will sweet talk the wolf and then the wolf will be beaten to death.
May be now we don't have Buaji in the picture but we might have Maami and NK and I would be elated if Buaji is also included here. Would love to see Buaji -Maami combination playing here.
Let's come to the title now. As I mentioned above that I first it was the "Sinking Ship" but then I changed it to "The Deluge". You all must be wondering right??? Yes, I know but the quote that I have given still holds true though. As John Bunyan said ~
Yes, one leak will sink a ship and one sin will destroy the sinner. Indeed. This is bound to happen and Shyam's one sin will destroy him and one leak in the house of Raizadas will sink their ship. The title is related to both of the Arnav's family and Shyam's actions. This is related to future track and now I will unfold it for you and the beautiful amalgamation that Gautam have done here with the same scene but he managed to pull of two different tracks. Beautiful and simply beautiful. In the episode today we have seen in Shyam's FBs that he said - "haan gira do lakdi ka patta, bas dhyaan rahein uss ladki ko koi chot nehin aani chahiye". Then cometh the scene where I said Shyam's fingers were playing like a "Flute" while Arnav was fighting the kidnappers, isn't it??? Now come to the dialogue where Shyam said - "uss ladke ko pakadh ke rakho, tab tak, jab tak hum faaisnla naa kar le usska aage kya karna hain". Then another dialogue he said - "Uss ladki ko jaane do, woh dhoondhte hue wapas wohi aayegi". Now, let us move to another scene where Anjali gave Khushi the blanket. She said - "Barish ka mausam chaloon ho gaya naa"??? and then she added on to that - "aap ko pata hain chote ki aadat hain naa baarish mein saare khidhkiyaan bandh kar dete aur AC ko full pe karke room bilkul thanda ho jaaa hain ... phir iss kambal ki zaroorat toh padhegi naa"??? Now, this is all you call a HINT.
Let us see the Friday's analysis where I explained the "Baby Split" and said how the 2/2 is important in the future track. But, when I explained the track I didn't mention when the split will happen, but guessed that it will happen the moment Arnav and Khushi will learn that Shyam is after the baby. Yes, today we have the time for the Baby Split and the track after that where Arnav will plan his attack. This is the reason why I changed the title. The Sinking Ship was meant for Shyam and Khushi's hide out with the baby girl but not for Arnav whereas when I figured Arnav's hideout too, I changed it to "The Deluge". What is Deluge??? Many of you have understood the meaning I guess; yes, it means flood and also downpour of rain. It means water and it means "Hideout" for the righteous people. It means God's brilliant ways of handling Man's wickedness; it means how God grieved by his creation and then created flood to cleanse the Earth.
Yes, this track is designed after Shyam will abduct the "Baby Boy" and will hunt for the "Baby Girl" so that he can achieve his "Saket" (Heaven). Here lies the quote of one leak in sufficient enough to sink the ship. Shyam will definitely manage to allure Khushi as in Arnav Rekha along with the news of the Baby Girl been born to Anjali will be enough to sink the ship. But, the sin of Shyam will be kidnapping is own baby and that is when his life will be destroyed here. Fantastic isn't it???
Now what are the 2 tracks??? How will Khushi take away the baby girl and Arnav will plan for his expedition??? Here they are:-
1. For Arnav it is Noah's Ark
2. For Khushi it is Titanic
Interesting isn't it??? Yes, I know. Who all remembers "Titanic"??? What were the hints??? Wooden plank, AC, Rain, Whistle and Blanket. What happened in Titanic??? When Jack knew that he couldn't make it to the shore then he helped Rose to lay on the plank and saved her from ice-cold water and when the whistle blew by the search team then Rose called them and safely reached at the shore. Then she recognized the Villain (Caledon) and changed her name to "Rose Dawson" instead of Rose Bukater. Isn't it??? This was her last chance to save herself. Right???
Yes, here also the same thing will happen. When Shyam will kidnap the baby boy then Arnav will send Khushi away with the baby girl and she will reach a place far from Lukhnow and you know where??? Of course it will near the river banks as in "Dariya Ganj" but she will reach "Allahabad or Sangam". Why??? Now, recall what Maami said when Khushi thanked her for saving her life - "Tum ganga - jamuna bahan bandh karo, mujhe pe abhi bhi doub tha"??? yup, that is the river bank isn't it??? Why because Shyam hinted - "Ladki ko kuch nehin honi chahiye" with the wooden plank, remember??? Yes, yes, I know. Then Khushi will stay in disguise and guess what surname she will use??? Yes, she will call herself as "Khushi Malik". Interesting isn't it??? The baby girl's name will neither be Jha nor Raizada but Malik. AC was hinted by Anjali and Khushi never requires AC but it was an indication to relate to the Titanic track. The same way Rose in Titanic used the blanket to hide from the Villain who was searching her constantly. This is a mini track and we have Ramayan track any way but how the hide out will happen??? This is how it will happen.
Notice in both the tracks the indication was hinted by Shyam with the wooden plank but the solution was provided by Anjali.
Now, Noah's Ark for Arnav. Why??? Well, he will be at guilt and will be on a mission to get the baby boy from Shyam and this is when this track will start. We all know the story of Noah's Ark and this is written in all the Holy Books; when God was angry with the SIN then He flooded the Earth but saved his mankind in Noah and his family. This story teaches us that the "Righteous" man will always be saved and God will guide them; He establishes his covenant in Noah and his sons and places a "Rainbow" in the clouds. Do you know when the Rainbow was placed also??? When Ramji had the victory over Ravan and then God placed the "Rainbow" in the clouds and that is why we call it as - "Ramdhanu" or "Indradhanush". See, in every religion we have the importance of "Rainbow" and this is nature of the Earth.
Anjali said - "aap ko pata hain chote ki aadat hain naa baarish mein saare khidhkiyaan bandh kar dete"; what did it mean??? Yes, it meant the "Ark" and Arnav will plan his hideout and you know where??? It will be "Haridwar", remember the dialogue from the Gupta House episode - "Hari ke dwar"??? Arnav will be at the river banks and as per Maami it will be by Ganga Jamuna Rivers. Interesting tracks isn't it???
Before I close I will talk about the temple scene. I remember that I have closed the loop of Khushi - DM talks when the wedding and Grihapravesh happened and it was the analysis - "I hate you like I loved you". I remember connecting it with Shyam's revelation and also Khushi wedding at the temple. Just have a read as I remember mentioning that Khushi's DM always hinted her that Arnav is the answer for all her questions but alas she never really figured it out. Just have a read and you will know about it.
I am just pasting a part of the analysis that I did then on Feb 27th and here are the excerpts:-
Today, is the day again she is on tenterhooks. I always love this girl's faith in DM. I really want to salute her each and every day. Even if 1% of this faith I can have in my life, I know I will be a much better human being. Today, she is unable to understand why her DM had not taken any measure to correct the evil deeds that has affected her life so much. Why her DM stood stupefied when the devil was filling her maang??? She doesn't have any answer even today for God always speaks to your heart and never talks like humans.She just needs to understand but can she really understand now??? NO.She will be in future that when she asked for guidance from her confidante, she did get an answer. Whether we figure out our answer or not, God does have the last say in everything and HER wish will be done. She said "bura kyun hone diya humare saath"'and the smiling face of her DM said -"open your eyes and look around and figure my answer for I have only saved you".But what she said, "uss rakshas ne jab humare saath shaadi ki, hum kuch kar nehin paaye par aap toh kar sakte the???"suchha nice dialogue with sucha deeper meaning. Yes, DM didn't do anything because that was meant to be happened and she witnessed it. It happened in front of her and she designed it; she designed the whole process on how Khushi can be saved for Khushi is her loyal devotee. How can she not help her and give her what is destined for her??? Yes, DM had answered her queries which she raised that day and like that day, today also she didn't get the signal. That she was on road and today she was standing in Raizada Mansion.
I loved this scene for I can see one loop is closed here and another loop is opened. The loop that's closed is Khushi got her answer in Arnav which she will eventually realize when the cloud will pass away;on the other hand, another loop is opened which will end with the mighty Mr. Arnav Singh Raizada's repentance in the same temple in front of DM, as I always mention. For when Khushi asked her why she saw it happen and stood stupefied and why she did wrong with her, how can her DM not answer her??? The answer will also come from her DM in the coming episodes with Shyaam's revelation and Arnav's repentance.
Let me club with today's scenario again.
Did it happen today??? It was again Arnav who helped her to go back to her DM again and ask for help. It was always DM's hint that Arnav is the one who is all her answers and today also we saw her starting her new journey with her "Right Foot". Always remember in IPK every single good step by Khushi is with "Right Foot". Just see the connection here. We have the "Poem" by Naani, Anjali and Payal while Khushi was nurturing the plants and then she heard the sound; while looking for it she found the 3 ladies and they comforted her. Khushi then straight went to the "Temple" and set her right foot to start the new life with her Arnav. The same way we will have the "Temple Confession" and after the wedding Khushi is back to her confidante, we will have Arnav also back to Khushi's confidante and unite forever.
Let me leave you with this below quote and a picture from Titanic -
"Soul mates aren't perfect people. They can come into your life and provide polar emotional experiences from intense pain to intense love. Growth comes from both. And a soul mate helps you grow. It isn't just "...and they lived happily ever after" BUT "...and they lived."
