i get your POV , cause i am also frustrated about

1. the about-face that khushi's character did when she returned back to RM.

Khushi had come back to RM under duress on raksha bandhan day. and yet on raksha bandhan evening she was all happy and hugging Arnav coz he gave a few of her favorite stuff as gifts.

they never cleared the air between them.

2. ASR had always maintained that their marriage was legal but now i want to know on what grounds was he saying so ??

its been a while seen i have attended a indian wedding so i am confused between saptapadi and saat pheere ?? are they the same thing or different ??

the way i remember is that 7 phere happens around the fire and either b4 that or after there are 7 lines drawn with flour on the ground and both the groom and the bride step on each line and the pundit recites some mantra as they go . what are these 7 lines for ??

******

today 21 august episode , i loved the phone conversation , to me it showed me that the characteristics of ASR is still there but tempered with some softness that usually used to extend to his di but is now for his khushi too.

*****

i confess i m looking forward to a big fat indian wedding, khushi has always dreamt of a big wedding so why not ??

Woah! Massive post!

I personally wanted a remarriage but I liked your point of view as well. It was well thought out and very nicely put. I'm one of the people who wanted to see elaborate rasams surrounding the man who opposes anything traditional. It's quite an intriguing thought.

I actually like the ASR that we are getting right now. I don't know why you feel that there is something missing. I see what I saw before with another dimension added. The romantic ASR is drool worthy as well 😳 Khushi's attitude has bothered me a few times but I've let it go because after all they have time constraints and they can't do everything perfectly.

I think the remarriage is happening

a. To appease the audience and increase the TRPs

b. To give us loads of moments to look back on because something BIG is coming our way. The clear skies don't remain for long because the rumbling clouds in the vicinity signal the arrival of the impending storm.

There was really a very minor backlash after Shyam was kicked out and the fact that Anjali is behaving weirdly and probably sneaking out to meet her husband, tells me that the CVs are planning something huge. And we shall be cribbing non stop when that happens so there shall be a host of happy memories to go back to once that happens. But then again why would they bring up a track which hampers their viewership? I mean the audience wants to see the romance between Arnav and Khushi so I suppose they'll keep that going but a more morbid track might be added.

Then comes the whole issue of Anjali and Shyam's child. Will it be born safely or will we have to bear the drama of a miscarriage? Will Anjali breakdown when she sees the reminder of her saint like husband in living breathing form?

So many questions to be answered...

Now they have the whole Garima-Dadi angle to work on so I think the remarriage might be dragged for a bit. But then again, I'm not really sure about it. Oh and why the hell was Dadi introduced anyway? To get Shyam back? To facilitate the remarriage? To reveal part of the past? She is such a pain! I really can't stand her!!!!

Anyway, this was my long answer to your massive post. I know you probably won't agree with any of the stuff I wrote but you said it yourself, its a matter of personal opinion 😊

Another interesting post in regards to the remarriage but forgive me in saying so another unneccesary negative post in regards to the CV's and IPKKND.

See so far we have only seen ASR exert his control over Khushi and dictate her life in regards to when she started working for him upto the point of having the marriage ultimatum.

Not once did he feel the need to fully explain his reasons and Khushi being Khushi went along with it for sacrificial reasons and killing all of her dreams and desires.

What we have seen is a complete 360 degree turn in ASR's character and how he has grown as a person by being around Khushi and being able to embrace life the way she does. Being able to show his love and regret towards her but also towards his family.

And it is through that love and appreciation that he has realised that he does OWE Khushi her dreams and desires, and whether people like it or not Khushi as a simple girl next door wants a big wedding with all the rituals fulfilled both for her and her family.

That doesn't mean that the union of both Arnav and Khushi is belittled or that their first wedding doesn't hold any significance. To both of them it does, Khushi accepted Arnav as her husband and carried out all her duties towards him and his family and along the way realised her love for him.

Same with ASR he has accepted his love for Khushi and because of the way ASR he feels he doesn't need to do anything else because to him they are married. However he realises that he does have a certain responsibility towards Khushi, her family and his family and therefore he is happy to go ahead with the rituals.

Which in actual life if you love someone you are happy to do things for their happiness.

I really don't think this is just to garner some TRP's, this was something that was always going to happen the minute Khushi and Arnav stepped foot in that temple and had the rushed 'wedding'

As this is a Mills & Boon-esq type of love story I can tell you that there are lots of remarriage epilogues or moments once the hero/heroine have accepted their mutual love during a MU...so again it's not something that has just been inserted for some higher ratings.

The essence of Khushi and Arnav and their symbolic love is still there, but people are forgetting it and trying to focus too hard on individual episodes and scenes rather than taking in the entire saga til date and appreciate what the CV's are trying to do which is to tell the story of these two and their journey of realising what name they need to give their love.

hi ixray,

yes, that change in khushi's character left many questions unanswered. but i guess arnav's "hamari baat abhi khatam nahin hui" would have taken us there. but immediately after that we had dadi's entry and everything went off in a different direction.

i can understand khushi melting as she saw how much arnav loved her and wanted her as she loves him too. and the pearls called out to something deeper in her, right from the beginning, pearls have had a significance in their story. but you are right, there was dissonance between her anger, frustration, and hurt feelings the day before and the playful khushi arnav found in front of di's room on raksha bandhan day.

glad you're looking forward to the wedding. who knows, might be fun. 😊

was never in favour of a big fat re marriage. The show has gone down a notch for me. It seems IPK fallen prey to cliche and lost a shimmer of its uniqueness.

dear tennismaniac,

how good to see you here. of course, i disagree with you about our man. he is a magnificent creature who has a right to live the way he chooses. we all like him for who he is. if we didn't we wouldn't be hear for the past one year, would we? i love his romantic mood, but this sort of toning down of his edgy persona, mmm finding it confusing. but watching intently anyway. how not to, sigh.

you are right, the madness coming up will take care of that too much sweetness problem. we'll get our old friend back when it comes to certain people, like sweet shyam. already he loves dadi so much😆.

about the remarriage, in my looong post i have put forward my reasons as to why i find it not quite right. won't go into it again. i have my thoughts, you have yours, and this space is big enough for both of us ha ha.

as for trp, funny thing is rushing around trying to find easy fixes never solved any problem. being brave and sticking by something you believe in sort of sometimes does. a big wedding won't get the numbers, a strong, well told story with the main protagonists intact and powerful just, just might.

loved your thoughts. am coming to your trp post shortly.

hi nazmobile,

thanks for reading and leaving your comment. i appreciate and respect your point of view. and let me clarify, this is neither a negative nor a positive post as far as i am concerned, it is an invite to discuss a matter among committed viewers. i thought much before writing the post especially because i am a keen ipkknd follower with the greatest regard for its creatives and highly talented actors. this is a show of a kind and i believe such discussions might end up being good for it.

in my head the remarriage is still not in place and i have explained why in detail.

the issue of trp and things do not bother me. as you say a remarriage was always on the cards. personally i have no issue with a recommitment in a private ceremony with loved ones and beautiful ipk symbols like arnav's mother's bangles, stars, the letter, etc. but a full fledged marriage of an already married couple feels not right. my thoughts, as i said we all have ours and perhaps each one of us is right in our place. thanks again.

A very sensible post! Very nicely written!

I think I am one of the few people here who will agree with you completely. Today, I couldn't stop laughing when someone wearing a MS and Sindoor was asking for the permission of Devi Maiya and the priest to get married! Does it make any sense? I kept on laughing throughout the entire Mandir drama. With each passing episode it is becoming an ordinary serial which might appeal to the mass trp generating audience. I don't know. I sure hope they get the trps they are looking for. In the process, the show is loosing its uniqueness.

I also agree with you about ASR and khushi. With khushi they have been messing for a while now. Much has been said about that, not much to add. About ASR, I always wanted ASR to turn into Arnav not Barun. Lately I have been feeling he is turning into Barun and someone who is running after his wife all the time. I want him to love and respect khushi, but he becoming too mushy for me. For me the only saving grace of today's episode was the kabutar scene.

Thanks for making this post!

perhaps what is not right does this to us. we can't really stay honest and feel our way through it.

According to me indi , cvs had two different paths and now want them merged and the patchwork is showing.

1. They either wanted to show this contract thing in a big way and the wooing and then khushi understanding her pati and probably insisting on some private ceremony seeking her DM's approval.

2.grand disclosure to family without khushi being convinced of pati's true love and then remarriage being the way for her to discover his love for her.

Unfortunately they mixed these two and messed it up.

Your last two lines is what is killing the show for me personally! People evolve in love but the pace at which they do is surely not this. They are behaving like a couple married for 20 years despite having known each other only for a year. Not the way i like or think about love.
