Tele-Apathy: What In The Hell Did I Just Watch?

Before you launch into your tirades, oh lovers of the illogical and impossible packaged as passionate romance: I loved the content of the conversation. I did.


Honestly, they referenced the conversation they had about their parents and stars- my all time favourite IPKKND scene.


They referenced the promo. OMG I LOVE META REFERENCES (to those of you to whom this means something, it's why I loved The Greatest Love... there was so much meta all over the place).


They referenced the Holi confession and finally acknowledged that they both remember it- the whole thing with the heartbeats.



But WHY did they do it telepathically? I just... I don't understand. It not only ruined this conversation but I wanted to slap them for ruining some of my all time favourite Iss Pyaar scenes simply by association.


If I watched the whole thing with my eyes closed, I would've absolutely loved it. But, like a horrific car crash- I just couldn't look away.


I just told an English friend of mine who doesn't watch the show but who I keep updated on the show about this and she just laughed on Skype to me for 2 minutes and 38 seconds non-stop. She'd pause for breath and then continue laughing.

Partly because I'm just that funny. But I wouldn't be funny if the material wasn't so unbelievably ridiculous.


This was a conversation to be having face to face. I know with the knowledge most of us have that Khushi will be shot, we KNOW they can't have this conversation face-to-face after Khushi saves him, but to the average viewer... Their only response can and will be WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?!


This is what they should've been talking about in that damn barn instead of suddenly becoming fashion designers and twisting dupattas into blouses and/or trying to have hay-sex (I would imagine this is somewhat akin to sand-sex which I have on good authority... isn't all that great. Especially not considering it'd be Khushi's first time. I'm not so sure on Arnav, all I know is that his stay at the Gupta house sleeping next to Khushi proved his "chotte" either has a will of steel or he's a eunuch).


No offence to those of you who think the telepathy thing is a testament to the strength of their love, but come on. I actually had to stop and check whether I was watching the right show- what was that? What, are they suddenly Quileute (no I do not like Twilight- do not ask me if I do- but I read the books in order to form an informed opinion as opposed to disliking it for no reason)? The way the show is going, I seriously wouldn't be surprised if they added an element of Werewolves into it. We've already got a Snake and Vampish women. Why not go the whole hog and add Werewolves in as well?

Seriously.

SERIOUSLY.

You said it all. The content was PERFECT, but the whole bizzaro telepathic conversation left me confused.

*shrugs*

Refer to this if you can do with a laugh

Yes. I'm still shamelessly pimping. If only I were as telepathic as Arshi, I could give everyone psychic vibes to read this post :p

I completely agree with you! It ruined the first bit of this episode for me. I mean seriously, the telepathy thing can only be cute for so long. They really should have talked about their confessions face to face. This is just ridiculous .

Been there, done that. ;)

And yeah. Content was so beautiful- brought together everything I love about the show... but in the WEIRDEST way which I literally just COULD NOT get past. Rest of the episode might as well have just not happened because I was just in shock over the first five minutes pretty much until the precap. 😆

Yeah. I mean, I know Arnav's losing hope about getting out- but seriously. The concept of believability and what can be explained by "their love is so powerful and transcending OHMAGAWWD" has to have some sort of a limit 😆

i agree with u...they could have shown the scene in a diff way...either face to face...or both of them talking to their hearts...but hearing the word by word convo was too much...

When the conversation was happening. The first thing i said to my mom was, Why are they having a telepathic conversation when they need to have a face to face one?
I won't say that the scene was silly or something. I remember I used to make fun of my cousin sister who used to believe in telepathy very deeply but sometime later telepathy kinda incidents happened with me as well and that made me shut up forever 😳
So you never know, people might actually be conversing with their loved ones like this but why Arhi man? That too now and such an important conversation of their life. Its more than a year now but these two haven't had a proper conversation ever except when Arnav had asked her about his parents turning into stars. They are in need of a proper conversation and when they are actually having it, we realize its a telepathic one 😕
