IP REDUX; Ishaqzaade !! - Page 2

I have never seen a more apt commentary of Khushi's journey to love than this...
Khushi, the naive girl who believed in the goodness of all , The girl who always believed tomorrow is another day and to live today to its fullest ...A girl who was living in her fairy land aware of the pain and suffering but choosing to ignore it, A girl who took things easy, A girl who could never cross the boundaries ...One fine day, Love gives its proverbial wallop, awakening the dormant woman in her !! Wide eyed, with curiosity, trust, hope sparkling in her eyes, Khushi begins her to take her first hesitant baby step into the land of love , guided by her instinct, the totem of Arnav attracting her, beckoning her ..Khushi moves towards the fulfillment of her destiny when from nowhere swoops in a vulture , carrying off the totem, leaving her bereft, numb, dazed !! ...A Girl who was just beginning to understand the new emotions that were unfurling their petals in her heart finds all the petals plucked away ruthlessly,mercilessly ...She is desolated , utterly alone caught in the twilight zone ..Her guiding star is hidden behind the clouds..The totem which protected her, guided her, cared for her is gone !! Hapless, ill-fated Khushi is thrown into the abyss , eyes blindfolded when rending the darkness apart, ripping the blindfold comes the call, The call of Love !! The call of her love .. A beacon in the darkness , A firefly which will lead her out of the maze !! Khushi hearkens the call of this love, implicitly reposes her faith and follows the light .. breaking the boundaries, throwing caution to the winds , Her mind, heart, spirit focused ... on finding Salvation , on finding her love, on finding her husband !! ...Adopting any means to find her husband , if that means entails lies , deception or even playing another man for fool.. So be it !! ..If it is her life that can bring her husband back, So be it !! No price is high for her prince !!..Her's is the love which has no depths, which will take any brunt willingly ..Her's is the love where Sacrifice is given willingly , The sacrifice being oneself !!..That was the Zameen -Aasman ka faraq between Shyam's love and Khushi's... while Shyams demanded th sacrifice of another for the cause of his 'Love'..Khushi's demanded the sacrifice of Self !!

A final Round of Applause to Raju Singh..The Pulsating heart of IPK who has given life to the show.. MY sincere admiration to him for the last bit on the flute..A short, evocative and poignant piece which left a lump in my throat !! 👏👏👏

At last Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada has admitted to herself and to Shyam that she has limitless love for Arnav in her heart... She will go to any extent for him..

So he was reviving himself too...he knew he could not breathe without her ...AWWW...so cute...as Sathya rightly says ISHAQZAADE..❤️😍❤️

Gotta run and see the episode now!!!

-----------------------------------------------

Whew - my heart is still thumping from that fast, action paced episode. What the hell were the CVs thinking? It wasn't just the characters jinke saansey ruk rahi thi - I am still hyperventilating from that pulse-pounding 20 minutes. And more to come tomorrow... Bring it on!!😃

All the while Mamiji's words from Holi kept ringing in my ears. 'Bhaang pi key (hamare Arnav bitwa) naach-gaaney waley superhit film ke jaise ban gaye hain, hello hi bye bye!' She forgot the dishum-dishum, lol. And today we got dishum-dishum, car/jeep/bike chases, more dishum-dishum, nail biting stunts, and high emotions. One word - AWESOME!!

And so ladies of IPREDUX - the transformation of Mr Arnav Singh Raizada to a filmy hero is complete! I present to you the new and improved Mr Arnav Singh Raizada.

At this point in the story its all about

- saving Khushi

- saving Himself

- kicking Goons' collective ass

and last but not least

- kicking Shyam's butt (But that will have to wait till later).

Note how he is no longer his own first priority. Khushi is. He has already decided he has to get out of the room. And he does. For a second he is overjoyed to see her. But what he did not expect to see is her in immediate danger, being dragged to a car by a man whose face he cannot see. Does he know who it is? Absolutely. There is no doubt in his mind that Shyam is behind this entire game. But this is a curve ball he's been thrown, and there is no time for finesse. He has to bat it out of the park, and there's just too many players on the field. So he squeaks by to first base - the jeep.

(Side note to writers - thanks for putting him in that macho jeep. Cue drool string! Just wish they could have sped up the film a little to convey a little more urgency).

He follows the car. And almost runs over the love of his life. Superior driving skills brings him to a halt after passing inches from her head (now THAT was scary!!) must have scared the heck out of him. But still he keeps his presence of mind. Weighs the odds. If I block them, I can get to Khushi faster. So he does. And then the battle for the next base begins. Khushi is free, he is renewed. From somewhere he dredges up the energy to keep battling to get to her. And so he is face to face with Rocky again. The man who dared to hit his Khushi. He sees red once more and proceeds to bash him up.

Until Khushi is at gunpoint.

The mighty ASR is stopped. He would hurt her to save her. But he can also give his own life for her if that is an option. And so he chooses to stop - for her life. But the goons are not thinkers like him. As he stops and gets beaten up again, Lallan decides to push Khushi a little too far. She slips and slides.

They say when you die your life flashes in front of your eyes in slow motion. This time, his life is slipping away and his/their flashes in front of his eyes (superb edits!), his life which he did not begin to live until she came into it. All the times he soothed her hurt and then gave her the biggest hurt of all - a contract marriage, which is now come to this. Her slipping off a cliff edge. He almost stops breathing. But he cannot accept that all is lost. He is a fighter and so is she. So he fights once more. Gets the gun, and then chases the goons off.

Wounded, terrified and helpless - he yells for her 'Khushiii'

There were so many cliches in this episode, and so little dialogue other than Shyam's rant. Yes, Khushi got to admit the L-word finally - to Shyam. But its relevant here. It has more meaning than if ASR hears it. ASR doesnt NEED to hear it. He knows it.

I normally dont make predictions as to what the next day will bring. But ...

The makers promised us a different love story and for now, they have kept to their word.

They promised us characters who are unlike anything we've ever scene - and they gave us ASR and Khushi.

They promised us hate that wouldnt let them stay together - and that's been delivered.

They promised us love that wouldnt let them stay apart - Bring it on!

So will ASR find Khushi alive - Absolutely (yeah, yeah, we'll have the drama in the precap - but not much more - I hope! Please, please dont reduce him to a sniveling weakling - he's so much more than that.)

So will the guilt track/redemption track/regret track be the usual cliched crap - I CERTAINLY HOPE NOT.

ASR is not about making big gestures. He is about the small ones. The ones that matter. Check out all that he actually gave Khushi - none of it expensive but each one more precious to her because of the meaning it held. So I think, his guilt track will also go the same way. He had already started on it in GH - turning off the A/C so she wouldnt feel cold, bringing her milk because she hadnt had dinner..

His confrontation with his sister - and yes, that has to happen, will be about hard evidence. Khushi has already collected it for him. Like a good detective she followed the money. There are no denying facts. THIS is what will bring Anjali to her senses. Khushi's innocence will follow. That will be his redemption.

Loved the Epi...Atlast Khushi ne kabul kiya..😊. It was heart wrenching to see Khushi all tied up in the "middle of the road" and how Arnav saves her within nick of time, this scene was shot beautifully.

Arnav and Khushi both took the beating today for their love, no MUs no distance, nothing can come between them now. This seperation have made them both realize what the other mean to them. Eagerly waiting to see how this track unfolds now..

A page 3 celebrity today😳

Memory is the treasury and guardian of all things- Marcus Tulius

Arnav and Khushi live with their memories. They have proved it time and again. Love actually dosent need the person to be together 24hrs. Their presence in your heart makes you feel that they are with you. Thats how most of the time these two souls have come. When she was about to leave him what he saw he rekindled all the memories attached with her not the sour ones not the ones he said that chap gayi uss pal dimag main but ones which was close to him.

We had seen him many times remembering only that thing which he wanted to see eventhough all these memories live inside with him he never wanted to give the front seat to it as he was tied to the love for his sister and hurt by the fact that Khushi has lied to him and done something wrong acc to what he witnessed. But all has been changed now and interesting part he will now give in to his feelings.

First he remembered their first meeting in Sheesh Mahal where Khushi got entry into his life and vice versa, then he saw how he saved her on that rainy day when he hurt her the most, then she getting struck deep within him which was beautifully showed by her earings getting struck in his coat, then the bandagement which was their engagement in front of Devi maiyya and even showed that Arnav will go behind Khushi come what may because he knows she is hurt and without curing it he wont be relaxed, Then removing dirt scene, then payal scene, phir tying mangalsutra, agni and finally ends with sindoor.

But actually with arnav's FB end will be the starting of the repentance track for him which he will again close it with their marriage.

When Arnav saw Khushi tied and came to rescue we saw one side Khushi was tied another side we saw arnav and the Kiddu's. It was like many external factors may bound them to separate as the Kiddus, ropes that tied Khushi signifies obstacles in the form of Shyam and Anjali but the Love that has been rekindled and ignited will make them break all the come together.

The forces will try to take khushi far away from him and she may even fall out of his sight but he will be there for her to get her nack in his arms which rightfully belongs to her.

"There is no remedy for love, but to love more." ' Thoreau

True to his personality he will give Khushi justice. The some moments feeling to lose her will make him realize the value of Khushi for him and to make good and give love to that innocent soul that has accepted him as her own even after so many tribulations. He has been loved so its time for him to give love more and that only will cure Khushi from all the damages she has undergone.

That was an awesome reaction and exprsession from Barun Sobti for the last scene where he felt that he lost Khushi he was confused and fervently searching her...Awesome man..👏👏👏

Hope the week brings more fun and the feeling to love😊

all forum is in festive mood😊
