Psyche? Tanths, is she the Psyche of "Cupid and Psyche"?
Oh! Nooo...!!! If ever there were two lovers who took forever to unite, it were these two. They ran the whole gamut of parental opposition, jealous sisters, friendly interference, tricks and conniving plots... the works.😆 Waiting eagerly for your take tomorrow. 😃
BLOCKBUSTER!
That was tonight's episode in one word; full on entertainment for 20 minutes or so. I loved it.😃 I didn't sign up for arty, thought provoking shows every weekday at 8. This is what I want and I got it tonight. For arty and thought provoking... I watch Satyameva Jayate regularly... 😃thank you very much😆.
Episode starts with Shyam realizing he has been had... that too by a chit of a girl. He immediately proceeds to confirm his suspicions- Manno Mami, take lessons from your Daamaad Baabu. His worst fears are confirmed. He checks the file, where he finds only 2 papers, when he had signed several. He also finds the fake pendant. He brings out the original one and compares them- now Shyam is holding two similar pendants. Twins again anyone? He has a few flashbacks of Khushiji. I found these flashbacks interesting:-
1. Humein Arnavji ke hastaakshar chahiye- "hastaakshar"' meaning- signature' approval? Address? Sense of belonging? Legitimacy?
2. Hum unhein barbaad karna chahte hain- though she said Arnav, it is obvious she meant Shyam.
3. Kheer scene- enticement
4. Raksha dhaaga- she has bound him in her web of illusions
5. Aapke chain gir gaye- Shyam will lose his status
6. Phaayda uthaana- she used his failings against him
7. Talaaq- breakage of what? Relationships? Trust?
Khushi and NK on the other hand had reached the restaurant and come to know of two possible places they need to visit. They take a delivery boy each with them and split up- seems to me the baby split is still on...wow!👏
Numbers- 60, 60, 30, 45, 60, 40 and 20 on the menu in the restaurant.
ASR in the kidnapper's adda. Bushy, you were right... these kidnappers are cute... even their names are cute...🤣 Rana, Mannu, Rocky, Lallan. By the way our star kidnapper's name is Rocky. They are searching for their missing buddies. ASR is shown to be walking quite non-chalantly, his very attitude a challenge to his captors😆.
Anjali is still in denial. Some of her dialogues were worth mentioning, I think:
1. Hum abhi ghar jaayenge, sab theek ho jayega- going back to roots?
2. Hum abhi inhe phone lagaate hain, sab clear ho jaayega- Shyam will be the one to spill the beans?
Scene shifts to the kidnappers den once more...
Rocky gets a call from Shyam instructing him to kill ASR ASAP!😲 And that too, it should be made to look like an accident.
Khushi has reached the place and is keeping an eye on the comings and goings. She calls up NK who informs her that he has met a dead end at the place he went to. She is about to answer when a jeep full of people arrive. (decoders- 124499 cro- I suppose this has no meaning?😕)
Enforcement has arrived for the kidnappers to send one unarmed man, ASR to his maker😆. The last time they showed Rana, he didn't have a mark on him... ASR's methods are neat and clean... not bloody and messy... at least that's what I thought. So blood must have been shown here for a reason... but what reason?
The kidnappers don't retaliate to finding one of them unconscious and battered. They merely leave saying they need to take him to the hospital. And that sets ASR thinking... he is on his guard now.
Khushi is calling NK but before she could say anything she had to cut the call as the goons come out at the moment. Khushi's phone rings at the moment alerting the kidnappers. It is Anjali's call.
Anjali has arrived home and by now is disturbed. She is anxious to get hold of either her husband or Khushi so that she could hear them refute the allegations made against them by Manorama Mami. She is still in denial and she needs to stay that way... and for that she needs the testimony of the two accused, who are not responding to her calls. Manorama tries to keep Anjali calm, but Anjali is angry. Her aunt has disturbed her placid existence... for no reason at all. She has to absolve her husband of all accusations and re-instate him on his pedestal ASAP; and circumstances are preventing her from doing so. Anjali Raizada is not accustomed to being thwarted... no... not even by fate. Everything should happen as she likes it, as soon as she wants it to. At this opportune moment, Payal arrives with a glass of milk for Anjali. Anjali confronts her with her questions. Payal is stunned. The glass of milk falls from her hand and is shattered... so, the truth will out. Gathering an inkling of truth from the expression on Payal's face Anjali Shyam Manohar Jha starts to fall apart...
Back at the kidnapper's den, the goons are giving the Captive Prince a royal bath😉. I loved the expression of puzzlement on ASR's face... and then he smells the liquid and there is a slight smile combined with incredulity. He knew at once it was water. The goons try to set fire to a wet ASR and the matchsticks, to the gormless idiots' utter amazement just fizzes out!🤣there were 2 matchsticks here.😉
The school of mentally challenged graduates are puzzled😆, while the Harvard graduate😉 smiles mockingly at them. The goons squabble among themselves and their chief finds out that the cans were filled with water instead of kerosene😆. They are puzzled because one of them had actually checked befare and it was kerosene alright... so who changed it?
I loved, loved, loved what happened next... realization dawns on Arnav Singh Raizada... a smile, a small one, lights up his face... she is here... his love... his angel... his shield... the girl of his dreams... his wife... his other and equal half. He voices her name in his mind... "Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada!" The look of pride and amusement on his face was indeed worth a watch. They are indeed made for each other, these two. One is battling from the inside, the other is helping from the outside. They are equals... two halves of a whole... Arnav and Khushi... "Ardhnareeshwar".
Flashback is shown how Khushi changed the kerosene to water. Brilliant move Khushi!👏
ASR is sure Khushi is outside... he is worried about her... he hopes she is not there alone... the fact that she is out there alone and in possible danger spurs him on... he fights... and fights with added fervor. Yes! ASR all the way!🥳
Outside, Khushi is trying to contact NK, but is caught by Shyam😲. What follows is a confrontation. Shyam is livid, he throws her machinations in her face. She counters saying he got what was coming to him. But you have got to hand it to him, he still appreciates her cunning even when it was used against him. He still says he did it for her. She contradicts saying that he did it for money. In the midst of all this Shyam says something strange- "Arnav ko Bachaao Abhiyan"; (the efforts of Arnav and Khushi to save Anjali's baby? So the boy will fall into Shyam's hands and the girl will be safe?) Shyam says Arnav was to die the very day he had been kidnapped from the airport, right under Khushi's nose, but he was given just 15 days grace period because of the will. Now the 15 days are at and end and Arnav is about to die.😲
Shyam also says he has been waiting for Khushi for 6 months- does that mean the time is up for the contract marriage?😕
Shyam's gloating has come into the picture once again. His tendency to show off his intelligence and brain-power will be the cause of his downfall. Why fear when Shyamu's gloating is here?😆
So if this wasn't a blockbuster, then what is?
That doesn't mean I didn't have some issues:-
1. ASR thinking why Khushi is here- he was the one who sent her the clue regarding his whereabouts, why is he surprised that she is here?😕
2. The kidnappers get the cans from the truck and go into the house and Khushi thinking what they were intending to do
- she recognizes the kidnapper with the tattoo at this time and comes to the conclusion that Arnav must be around here somewhere
- later they show that she was the one who had changed the kerosene to water even before they came to get the cans
- why would she do that if she wasn't sure of things at the time? Was she taking anticipatory bail?😆
3. where are the guns of the goons that ASR overpowered in the previous episode😕 ? why is the Harvard Grad still unarmed?😕
