Hey all ..
Had no intention of writing today .. as i haven't even watched the episode .. but Megs kindly put up the link of the last 5 mins of the episode ...What to say i was floored ... hence i thot to write some points to ponder ...
Let me thank Ritzy & Appu for the absolutely wonderful Live update of the episode .. .. don't think i missed a single nuance so perfect was their narrative ... & of course darling Meg for the glimpse of the episode .. thanx guys ..
The episode progressed exactly as one would've predicted .. the ouster of Shyam ... & falling or crumbling of the castle of dreams of Anjali's .. in her faint ..
The first thot to ponder :
has this woman clenched her eyes shut to all problems today
Or has this woman opened her eyes to all her problems today
Arnav & Anjali scene. .. a heartfelt Thank you to Gul for this Gem ... ( not seen it as yet .. but wil do so soon).. ..
Ok i know all of u thot of me when u saw this scene .. as i had penned it as my dream scene .. heres why ... & pls note the relevance ..
Whenever ASR/Arnav is overwhelmed in life .. he goes to his MOTHER .. figure .. his Di .. & like any kid .. when the burdens of life become to much .. or when life throws curve balls to u .. u want to be in the one place where u know SHELTER is imminent ... all worries will GO .. all problems will miraculously disappear .. & thats where ASR went ... to his mother His DI's lap ...
Now what happened today .. most of u focussed on the Chotte turning to Arnav .. ( she has called him arnav in the very first episode) ... but look at the bigger moment .. TODAY THE MOTHER REJECTED THE SON ...
Today the Mother in Anjali . won over the SiSTER in Anjali .. a paradigm shift ...
Today the mother Anjali .. actually proved that she was a motherly sister .. not the MOTHER ... or she would've not thrown him out of the room .. she would've demanded answers from him ...
This is the next thot to ponder :
Will this be the BIG change now ...?
Through the weekend on Redux forum & through PMs .. some of you had asked me what i thot would happen on Monday .. & i replied .. i see a very post marriage scenario play out ... & boy was my TUCCA right today ... ..
Why did i say that i felt we would get a post marriage play out . was simply because i felt the whole confrontation had the same LOOK & FEEL of post marriage play out .. with such noticeable subtle differences .. differences which will define the Future of the TRACK ...
Now c what happened through wednesday / thursday / friday .. we had a confrontation .. with the whole family standing & asking Ques .. hurling Ques ... being abusive to KHUSHI ( Shyam at least) ... once again we had Khushi standing on ONe side answering & parrying ...
Now see the first difference .. at that time the Man who should've suppotedd her & spoken for her ... was STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO HER ... DINT SPEAK A WORD .. DINT STAND UP FOR HER ...
Now cut to see what happened on friday ... the MAN ( ASR) .. was standing faaway from her .. next to his Di ... but do you doubt for one moment HE WAS NOT WITH KHUSHI ...
He spoke up about her .. he unequivocally stated his feelings for KHUSHI KUMARI GUPTA SR ... when the last time he should've shouted his feelings ...
Now look what happened post the confrontations got over .. all retired to their rooms ... during post marriage scene .. WE HAD ASR shut his DOOR on ANJALI .. & today we had an ANJALI SHUT THE DOOR ON ASR ,... both the times sadly we had a crying Khushi standing wondering WHY ME ...
LOOP CLOSED or OPENED i will leave this as the third thot to PONDER
... must say every frame of the episode today ( what i read) .. portrays the brilliance of the maker .. GUL KHAN ... hats off darling .. ASR is ur baby & u know how to nurture him ...
Now for the final 5 mins of the episode .. ( now this i watched) .. awww .. this is romance ... i don't think on TV at least ne 1 understands or portrays Romance the WAY Gul & NIssar do ... simply brilliant ...
The woman walks up to her man ... once again being the caring WIfe ... wanting to say something .. wanting to thank him .. wanting to explain ... wanting to commiserate the hurt .. wanting to wallow in the breaking of a family ... wanting to comfort the man
Now see the turn back to the post marriage track ...
.. ( it was so beautifully weaved in to the whole episode that i was struck dumb) ..
The last time .. Khushi came crying to ASR saying she was an orphan today ...
& Today ... ASR doesnt need to go to Khushi & say the words .. coz she knows how much hurting his Di has hurt him ... & HOW MUCH Di's REJECTION would've shattered him ...
The woman in Khushi .. the mother in Khushi .. recognizes this pain ... & HUGS ASR ... he was the orphan today & she was giving him the comfort which he rightfully should've given her ... ( he wanted to) ...
if u see the HUG .. the whole picturizing of it is the dichotomy here ... NOTE ASR Is rubbing her hair in a gesture of comfort ... BUT IT IS ACTUALLY ASR who is deriving the COMFORT from that HUG ... Simple Superb .. !!!
Look at the beautiful way the makers today .. showed the apology of past mistakes & the acceptance of the apology ...
ASR carries Khushi .. over the threshold today .. the Grih Pravesh ( thnx Amarb for pointing this out) ... & carries her to her rightful place his BED ( his home) .. every expression of ASR .. is of regret in what he has done to her ... & he lays her on the bed .. his side .. denoting .. i surrender to you .. all that i hold dear ...
He tries to goes away .. & she holds his hand ... apology accepted ...
Brings him close to her ... We are one ...
He sits down cups her cheek ... thank you for accepting my apology ...
Then he moves the offending lock of hair from her face ...denoting ... don't worry all will be fine ... i won't let anything come in our way ...
aha .. GUL KHAN & NISSAR parvez .. guys ur brilliance knows no bounds for me .. for a die hard romance lover ... this is pure poetry in motion ...
Guys the most important point to ponder in the episode ...
Today u saw BIG change u saw a ROLE REVERSAL in RM ... u saw Anjali become ASR & ASR become Anjali ..
My Ques to you the dear viewer is ...
What will this role reversal BRING ...
An ASR who is a nurturer ...
An Anjali who is hot tempered .. opinionated ... quick to jump to wrong conclusions ... not asking the facts ... closing the mind to different possibilities & interpretations ... a person who thinks she is right .. ( sounds familiar .. isn't this what ASR did during the time he saw Khushi in Shyam's arms) ...
I have a feeling the next ride in IPK .. will be the BEST EVER .. so guys please SIT tight ...
PICTURE TOH ABHI BAHUT BAAKI HAI MERE DOST ...
