SAME HERE BUT I AM NOT DOING IT ONLY TODAY THAT FEAR AND THAT SOMETHING IS ALWAYS THERE UNTILL HE IS SOMEWHERE

THIS FEELING OF SENSES IS REALLY BOTHERING ME A LOT TOO ESPECIALLY HE IS OUT THERE ALONE IN THIS JUNGLE

had written this about him months ago, during kidnap, the night she appeared in his reverie in a blue and white lehenga, like the ocean after whom her lover is named. have i posted this on blast before? or may be i have, but some of you may not have been around then, so posting anyway.

this is for barun.

i do so believe in that talent.

arz kiya hai.

sometimes you are just not cut out to be a doctor, lawyer, ca, engineer. you never do well in school. the marks aren't what please people. an idea takes shape and gets set in the mind: you aren't good at anything, not anything useful at least. what's the point of all that cricket and footer playing, won't earn you a living. you try to keep cool, dreading and half believing what you hear is true, other half not that sure. maybe a kind young friend, a bright girl with good marks even, comes along and looks at you with eyes that believe differently. you carry on, move on to a job, a bit of a last resort type of job where the ones who couldn't be a doctor engineer lawyer seek a salary. seven years on, a friend of yours passes your photograph to a production house looking for a "cheap" actor. in a couple of years, the colour of your eyes is being debated by doctors engineers lawyers copywriters derivatives traders. when you appear on a small screen with your fake hermes shoes, girls chuck their big birkins and other bagwatis to one side and sit down to gaze at you rapt. when you go missing, mothers offer mannats. when you have sadness in your eyes, we cry and write shayari, when you smile that smile we clutch our hearts and swoon (savvy writes shayari). our children know when not to disturb mommy. our husbands try to believe something good will come of all this since there's no way out. no no not v, his name starts with b, b, can be heard at cocktail parties and dinners, also where women congregate to discuss serious world matters. men want you to know there's an asr in them. women pretend they're getting taken in. oh there's poetry, philosophy, kismet, karma, the power of love in the story of you. but most of all, thank g you were not cut out to be a doctor, lawyer, engineer, ca, head of treasury .

now get back to where you belong, sir, and do something about that pout.

Here's the hi five . I had gauged your views on this based on few of your comments made earlier and also your reactions, or the lack thereof, to the shirtless pic of BS. Totally agree with the above in bold. Going shirtless or any other skin show isn't a crime, but when its done deliberately, that's when it becomes irritating. Honestly, during the hate marriage when they showed BS shirtless a couple of times at RM going in and out of the bathroom, I didn't find it odd (I wasn't in the forum too, for someone to divert my attention.) But, the public bath and the back massage scenes were shouting trp trp, and it didn't feel natural. The back massage scene, Horizon mentioned elsewhere too, felt like I was peeping into someone's bedroom too much and wanted to get out quickly. I actually liked that scene, but wish he wasn't shirtless there, felt very uncomfortable watching that. I can watch the consummation scene a million times but not this one.

Episode 108

Punishment and Potion

He grabs her and pulls her in the room. He shows her what he has found on his computer. Her hand covers her mouth in shock. Here she was coming up to apologize and explain everything and he has caught her, she must think of something. He asks her what she wanted to accomplish. She says she sleep walks. What the? He asks if she was sleeping in this video. She says she was coming to apologize and if she tells him the truth he will laugh at her. She asks for forgiveness again. She tells him she thought he was doing black magic on her. She didn't know that Anjali had given him the lemon and chilies. She made a mistake and should be punished. He asks punishment, what kind? She looks and sees the rest of the juice and drinks it down in one gulp. What the?

She finishes the drink both are coughing. She tells him she has been punished and this is good now please forgive me. She hands him the potion and tells him to drink it and she says she doesn't know what has gotten into her the last few days, she has had strange thoughts. Buaji told her maybe someone was doing black magic on her so when I saw you chanting'."Chanting?" he asks. "Near the tree you were saying something," he looks,"you had the lemon and chilies in your hand, so I thought'I was wrong."Kushi says. She asks for forgiveness a third time and says drink the potion you will feel better. She nearly spills the potion and as she is leaving bangs into the door. He must feel her pain because he lifts his arm as if to help her. Boy Kushi, you are having a bad day! She leaves coughing and he is just staring at his crazy girl.

Anjali hands Lavanya jewelry and a wrapped sari in Arnav's favorite color. La is so excited as she thanks Anjali. Kushi comes and tells Anjali she has given the potion to Arnav. Anjali says that because of the potion she forgot so she now hands Kushi her gifts for Diwali. Kushi says she doesn't have a gift in return and she can't reciprocate. Anjali says she will get hurt if she doesn't take it and Lavanya tells her just to take the gift it is no big deal. Kushi says that both of them have done so much for her and Anjali says take it with love it has been given with love, would you rather me give it you in anger. Anjali hands her the Goddess and says she has a special veneration and Kushi can bring her sweets tomorrow. She takes the gifts but sees the payals. She asks Anjali for forgiveness and hands her back the payals saying she only wears her mothers for when she wears them she feels as if she is with her all the time. Anjali takes them back, she can understand.

Shyam is telling Babuji that he hasn't been home to his wife for many days because Kushi works there but it is Diwali so Kushi will be home so he will go home to his wife. Despicable Shyam takes a phone call from his wife in front of Sashi and tells her he will be home soon. Then he calls Kushi and says Uncle needs medicine and to come home early so he can say goodbye because he is leaving. Poor Sashi, no words just his looks of disheartenment and pain. Shyam turns around and says to Sashi he has married Anjali for money but has lost his heart to Kushi. That is why he loves her so much.

GH Payal opens the door to a coughing Kushi. She asks her for the potion. Payal goes to make it and Buaji asks Kushi to sit with her, she wants to speak with her. She wants to know what gift she will give her father. Shyam comes in with a wheelchair saying he bought it for uncle it will help him get around easily. He gets his bag and says guest will be coming so he is leaving to avoid what happened today. Kushi looks at Payal. Buaji says she won't let him go like this and he says he will come back soon. He says goodbye.

Buaji tells Kushi she can now bring peace and happiness back into the house. Buaji says 10 years ago her father did a good deed and now it is her turn to return the favor. He can't walk or talk or move and now that small girl is sitting in front of her. Can't she do this much for her father? OMG, Buaji, pours a little guilt on her shoulders. Can't she give him this much happiness? Kushi grabs her hand and Buaji tells her to let it go, nevermind. Buaji says that Kushi has said no and Garima is behind her but did Kushi know that Shyam had to tolerate the neighbor's taunts all because of her? Buaji ends with I expect you to change your mind by tomorrow evening.

Arnav is at poolside, coughing he remembers Kushi drinking the juice and asking for forgiveness and her telling him to drink the potion. He takes a sip'it is awful.

Kushi is in her room, heavy thoughts on her mind. She is being guilted into accepting Shyam's marriage proposal all because she was an orphan who has been raised in another family and this is her pay back. She remembers drinking the juice as her punishment for spiking it and Arnav drinking it and his suffering. She didn't mean to hurt him, she just thought he was casting spells on her. He is casting his spell on you Kushi but it is not a fake spell it is a real one; it is not a dark plan but a Divine plan, one that will bring them together for eternity.

Payal asks Kushi if the potion has helped and she says yes. Payal sit besides her and says she overheard her Aunt's conversation but Payal says do what your heart desires. We are with you and will always be with you.

Kushi is decorating for Diwali, she has paved a path for the Goddess Laxmi to enter the home. Payal says this is the first time they will not be spending Diwali in Lucknow but it is good because their parents are with them. Kushi adds and he will get courage too and it will be wonderful!

In the RM La comes ant tells Anjali that her sari is not red but blue. Anjali must have made a mistake and she apologises. La says please don't apologize no big deal. But yes it is a big deal because when Arnav sees Kushi'POW!

Kushi opens the box and sees a beautiful red sari.

RM Everyone is preparing for Diwali, lighting lamps and making sure all is perfect. Lavanya lights some lamps and Anjali tells her not only 3 because 3 is considered unlucky so light more. Anjali says light the lamps Kushi made. This aggravates Mami to go into her Kushi tirade. Lavanya goes to get more lamps and she meets Arnav. He looks very nice in his siler suit but his shirt actually matches Lavanya's sari. This makes me sad because I know what is going to happen. I think the creatives were giving us hints. He catches a lamp that has dropped from the tray that Lavanya was preparing.

He remembers Kushi saying that she made lamps and here is one in his hand. He remembers her, he can feel her, he sees himself removing the dirt from her eye, grabbing her, showing her his evidence against her, watching her drink the juice'..

He is her punishment and potion!

Episode 107

That Old Black Magic

Lavanya is pushing Kushi to go and get the dirt they need from Arnav's plants at poolside. Kushi is nervous she will meet up with him so she sneakily goes out to the poolside. She prays to DM that they don't meet each other. She grabs a handful of dirt and when running back the dirt is falling little by little all over the place over the carpets and down the hallway and onto the floor she then drops it on the table on a towel. It is not enough she has to go back. She runs into the poolside to retrieve more dirt meanwhile ASR walks into his room on the phone with Aman giving him directives. He looks down on the floor and sees a trail of dirt which leads outside to the poolside. He follows the trail and it leads him to one Kushi Kumari Gupta. She is grabbing a handful of dirt turns around and is shocked to see him; the dirt goes flying in the air and on to the floor and into her eye. She tells him Lavanya needed the dirt to make lamps while she is trying to wipe the dirt out of her eye. He grabs her hand and tells her to stop figeting as he places her on a chair. He says to her does he have to pay her overtime for her to sit still for a minute in the chair. He goes closer she moves back, he stops, looks at her gains her trust and she moves closer and so does he. He blows the dirt from her eye. She closes he eyes at his touch. Ever so gently, he reaches and slowly moves the hair from her face and wipes her eye. Each time he wipes her eye she closes her eyes a little more just relishing his touch but embarrassed as well. She loves his feel but it produces all these feelings and emotions inside of her which she is not use to. Her breath hitches and she is softly panting until her breathing is shallow, high in her chest and coming rapidly. He too is aware of it. Her skin is so soft, he swallows, lost in the moment,

she opens her eyes, he realizes and lets go of her hand, gets up and takes a step back. They are both embarrassed and nervous and fidgeting looking away ferom each other finally recovering a little nerve they turn back to each other and it looks like they both wanted to say something but stop. Finally Kushi apologizes softly for taking the dirt from his pots. He says he planted seeds in that pot and the mood broke. She says, WHAT? She didn't know it. She is panicing and he tells her to Shut. Up. Kushi SHUT UP! He says you can take the dirt from the other pot. She enters his room with a handful of dirt and as she leaves she hears him say his sister believes in all these unnecessary things as he places the lemon and chilies Anjali gave him on the table.

Kushi has masde the lamps and is placing them outside to dry. La comes in and places the mud cake on the same table as the dirt cake and calls Mami to come try the cake as she is putting her wallet away. Mami taste the dirt cake YUCK! Kushi comes back and tells her she is eating clay. She blames Kushi for eating the clay.She says she will put the clay back in Arnav's pot.

Arnav is in his room working. Om Prakash comes in and tells him that Anjali says to place the lemon and chilies on the neem tree. Kushi is walking and sees Arnav placing the chilies and lemon on the neem tree and he is talking,she remembers the conversation with Buaji that she thinks someone is doing Black Magic on her and that is why she is behaving this way. She looks again at Arnav who is talking, he actually looks like he is chanting a spell, as he is hanging his lemon and chilies. She gets nervous because he is watching her and is continuing his conversation with Aman as he is hanging the lemon. She turns around. She thinks he maybe the one who has placed the spell on her, Black Magic, and that is why she is feeling like this. Needless to say, Kushi doesn't know that Arnav is on his Bluetooth talking with Aman. Our Miss Kushi lets her zany mind go wild with thoughts. This is why she sees him everywhere and he is always in her thoughts; she can't believe he would do this. (Then don't,Kushi it is a ridiculous thought!) She must stop this Black Magic at any cost as well as his chanting! Om Prakash brings him juice and sets it on the table. Kushi comes up with an idea.

She goes down to her handbag reaches in for something and a smile crosses her face. She's got it! She has prayed to DM for assistance. Loved to see how this turns out for you Miss Kushi! You crazy girl!

He is all set on his computer for his conference with skype and he has forgotten the file. I guess DM is assisting Kushi. She runs in mixes something in his juice and says this should stop you and is ready to leave but he is coming and so she hides behind the drapes. He comes back and drinks the juice as he is reading his file. He continues the skype with Aman but can't seem to finish a sentence without having to clear his throat. Sorry, Aman, one second. Kushi is in the background thanking DM and mimicking him and all smiles. She has broken the spell of Black Magic in her mind. Anjali comes in and asks him what is the matter, as she is rubbing his back. Kushi all satisfied with her actions gives a smug look and leaves.

Kushi is packing up and behind her Anjali is pacing back and forth all worried over Chote. She calls for Mami saying Chote has a throat ache. Kushi is all smiles.Mami says someone must have cast an evil eye on him because your lemon and chilie didn't work. Anjali says she herself asked him to hang the lemon chilie. Kushi's eyes go wide! Uh, oh! Mami gives Anjali something for arnav to drink and Kushi says this means he wasn't doing BlacK Magic on me. Kushi has to amend what she has done. She tells Anjali she will bring the drink to Arnav.

He is on the phone with Aman and sees on his computer something; his eyes change, someone is in trouble! Kushi is scolding herself. "Arnav Singh Raizada doing Black Magic? I didn't think for two minutes, Kushi, I am so strange. Should I tell him the truth and put my life in danger?" She gently knocks on his door, hesistantly knowing death can be upon her at any minute. He is fuming; we can see the old ASR again in his eyes. No more pyaar just hate. The door opens a little and she says "Arnavji, I, ah'" He grabs her, "Shhh, quiet'" and shows her the computer video. Her eyes widen'

What kind of Black Magic is this?

Black Magic by Frank Sinatra

That old black magic has me in its spell,
that old black magic that you weave so well.
Those icy fingers up and down my spine,
That same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine.
The same old tingle that I feel inside,
and then that elevator starts its ride,
And down and down I go,
round and round I go,
like a leaf that's caught in the tide.
I should stay away,
but what can I do?
I hear your name and I'm aflame,
Aflame with such a burning desire that only your kiss can put out the fire.
For you're the lover I have waited for,
the mate that fate had me created for.
And every time your lips meet mine, darling,
down and down I go, round and round I go,
In a spin, loving the spin I'm in,
under that old black magic called love.

good one 👏

^^^ thanks guys, glad you agree with me

@Katelyn, i also heard that chanchan is more sanaya than the male lead, so barun would def not do it

@Horizon, @Indi, agreed i was a huge fan of the show "sex and the city" ...a huge hit.smart writing, EPIC! they ended the series but moved it along with a super hit movie and a second not-so-superhit movie...something like that would be PERFECT for this show to close the many loops and shed some light one sheesh mahel, the uncle, shyaams back ground...Barun would have his movie and we would have out Sarun back😊 again like you said the rights would have to bought out from the PH. I've thought about how IPK would be as a movie from the start and feel like there is sooo much to the journey, it would have to be a trilogy or more of movies! Also I would like to see an edited version, but not a recreated version.

Indi, that is a dream team you talk of, yes that heaven exists, if we want it bad enough, it shall be ours!!
