The Mushyfication of ASR- Not really!
Alright, I know a couple of you will think Arnav going out of his way to learn what happened during all the wedding rituals, getting that raksha dhaga tied is against his character, and writers are just reducing him to a mushy caricature, well you might want to think about the whole thing from a different perspective. ASR does not believe in customs and rituals, right? Does he believe in them now? Nope, I don't think so. He is not googling the meaning of various rituals and giving a running commentary, and getting a raksha dhaga tied because he believes that all this has any meaning. But what he does believe is that him going through all these shenanigans will bring a 100 watt smile on lady love's face. And that is exactly why he did what he did. If she could defend him and his choices to her family day in and out, then why can't he do his bit and perform these rituals for her? He is thankful to her for accepting him the way he is, for loving him with all his shortcomings, without asking him to change, without trying to change him. Once again, its not because he believes in them, its because she believes in them, its important for her, as simple as that!
Roka - Fast and Furious:
Woah, its over already? Slow down there, Rajdhani express!😆
ASR: Alright people, I have tried and failed twice in having sex with Khushi. Do you know how much that hurts? Literally? So I have decided to take matters into my own hands and oversee that this damn wedding is done with utmost perfection, so that she doesn't get a chance to stop me once again because some ritual was left incomplete!
Khushi: Pinch me, am I dreaming?
Me: Go on Bitwa, her waist, your fingers, what are you waiting for?
SP nuns: No no, that is not why we kept her midriff bare. Arnav bitwa, be a good shareef SP hero and pinch her on her arms.
Me: Oh go away! (And they did, by the end of the episode, yipppeee!😃)
And they exchanged rings! Of course I grinned like a crazed lunatic, its Arnav and Khushi's engagement after all. Also, virtual jhappis and pappis to the writers for not forgetting and not letting us forget either that this was Arnav and Khushi's 2nd engagement. Trust bitwa to remember that the "bandagement" was an engagement after all. Now lovely writers, do the same for haldi, mehendi, and sangeet. After all, in sab ka bhi repeat telecast hone wala hai!
Dance Raizadas Dance:
ASR: No thank you. I am already smiling. If I dance to "Pairon mein bandhan hai" then my phangirls will skin the writers alive for messing with my character.
Khushi: Touche. Anyway let me dance and you can stare and rabba vey.
Me: W*F?? What is this demented song they are playing? Stop it! Where's Rabba Vey when bitwa stares at bitiya? Really people?
Shyamu: Dekho aya chor! Thats my cue! Yippeee! The chor is in the house people, ho daiyaa ho!
Me: *Too busy laughing my head off to decode*
Its Raining Kisses:
3 kisses, freaking 3 kisses on one day, and the venue was no less, it was THE WALL people, THE WALL against which the diwali miss kiss happened. I have cracked it, THE WALL is what it takes to give a sizzling ArHi scene without fail.
Khushi: What are you doing?
Arnav: I am looking at you. I can't do that after haldi.
Khushi: So you will just look at me and not do anything else? Really? Its time to take matters into my own hands and stroke the fire. So Arnav jee, what if di comes?
Arnav: What the? I am not scared of her. ASR is not scared of anyone. *Kiss on the forehead*
Khushi: Alright, what if Da-Di comes? *Secretly hopes this will instigate her Arnav jee even more*
Arnav: I am not scared of THE HAND either. *Kiss on right cheek*
Khushi: OMG my plan is working. I want more, so ermm, what if bua jee comes?
Arnav: She is a total phangirl when it comes to you and me. If she drops in then she will cheer for us. So no, I am not done with you yet. *Kiss on left cheek*
Khushi: This situation is awfully familiar you know. You have me trapped against a wall, you are about to kiss me, but I really shouldn't say anything to ruin the moment.
Arnav: That's right. I will complete this kiss today. No more missed kisses!
SP nuns: Cockblock alert!
Khushi: Aman jee! Aman jee might call you!
Arnav: Taking another man's name when I am about to kiss you. Wow, that killed my libido Khushi.
Khushi: It wasn't me, I swear, you know how these SP nuns are.You must bribe them before our SR Arnav jee.
Random Musings:
- Holy Mother Of All Things Good, the SCARF is back, after ages! How hot does he look when he wears a scarf? Now he is just one haircut away from going back to June,2011 wala killer looks. Not that he doesn't look drool worthy enough as it is.
- Sanaya Irani, woman you are gorgeous. The dress is not. I feel for you hun. Its no fun dressing like a rainbow all the time.
- Arshad jee, great job on the last scene. Not so good when it came to the roka sequence, looked very haphazard too me, scenes lacked the natural flow, koi nahin though, the last scene more than made up for it!
- Akash bitwa, you finally did something worthwhile. I am so proud!
- Shyamu, exactly what are you planning to do? Slowly poison AnJhali to death? I see you are still stupid, what with dropping the meds on the floor. How nice of you to wear a kurta for Arnav and Khushi's engagement though!😆
- Barun Sobti, you were the STAR today! Couldn't take my eyes off you. Sanaya, you were no less.👏
I will go back to watch the last scene now. The replay button will hate me today, no joke.
