Episode 110: Jaadu & Nasha

The payal dangles from his fisted hands yet again. He had kept it close, kept it safe and only he knows how many other times he pulled it out to admire the "Khushi-ness" it exudes. The chirpy loud, happy, beautiful piece of jewelry fell out off her ankle, only to be noticed by Arnav. Before her payal fell into his life, it was her pearls that found their way into his pocked the day they met, but when thoughts of her became too much and he thought she had left him "hemesha ke liye", he vigorously threw them out, in hopes that she would leave with them. However the payal he would go out to rescues when no one was looking. Maybe his wanting to keep the payal marked her return back into his life...whatever it was he immediately felt the attachment towards it. Today he learns its significance to Khushi, they are the only thing left of her Amma, who he knows by now just how much it means to Khushi. As he holds it up, seems a mix of emotions run through him, not wanting to part with it, but at the same time he knows he must. On a higher level, could it be just that the purpose of the payal, is over? it did have a mind of its own when it freed itself from Khushi's ankle and chose to stay with Arnav. At that time it was uncertain when they would see each other next. Arnav needed something to live by. Now her place in his life, his heart has become permanent. He would never be able to throw her out try as he may... starting tonight.
"Chotey" His thoughts are interrupted by Anjali and Naniji, he quickly puts away the payal in his pocket. Anjali has a huge smile on her face "Chotey, nani wants to say something to you" Nani also in a good mood as La has made her proud by sticking up for the RM family and its values in front of her friends.
Nani explains,"i never thought i would say this in my dreams but the way Miss.Kashyap"
"Oh God, now what happened" poor guy, so used to the pattern of Nani's complaints about La.
"let me complete my sentence, the way she stood up and protected the respected of the Raizadas in front of her friends, i felt really good...maybe this is the Ms.Kashyap i'm looking for so i've mad a decision...I have no problem with yours and Ms.kashyap marriage"

Arnav knew what was coming as Nani has never talked so highly, he was uneasy as she went on. La might have changed but Nani forgets that his outlook on marriage hasn't, and makes no plans to ...except for the occasional fake marriage with a crazy drama queen in Nainital.
He turns around in anger and frustration, Anjali asks "what's wrong?"
I know things are being setup for later, but still wonder why they expected some other reaction from him, hasn't he been completely clear that he doesn't want to marry? He broke up with La at one point didn't he? if he really wanted to marry La, can Nani really stop him?
"Nani if you think by telling me all this, i'll marry Lavanya, then you think wrong" he clarifies again. Nani leaves disappointed after telling him to think about it "if not today then tomorrow, you must start your family life" Also, the sympathy for La is tremendous as she becomes the innocent victim in all of this. I still fail to understand her constant ignoring of Arnav's attraction towards Khushi at times even forgetting it, why did she ask him to help her through the diyas when she know he feels something for her? How did she figure that just because Nani accepted her, ASR would also as his wife?
"Ab ASR mujhse zaroor shaadi karenge" (now he'll marry me for sure)" elated she tells chamkili.

There is that look on Khushi's face, just one step short of a lone tear drop. "chamkili, what happened, why do you look sad, don't worry this time ASR won't be able to say no to me" Khushi fights off the strong feelings to force a smile.
"The guests have started to come." Op comes to inform.
The party is in full swing, mamji ready to "show off" the decor and the "buttiful boquet" While Anjali once again has to answer questions about her husband. Khushi comes down with La, Nani proudly introduces her to her guests.
As Khushi stands there, the gust is back stronger than before bringing along with it pure jaadu (magic). Her eyes draw to him and for the first time she sees it, his "mehsoos" of her, as he turns to answer her call the eyes know exactly where to look. He can read her startled face, the same feeling he has when he felt her "mehsoos" of him.

La interrupts and pulls her away just as the tunes of the majestic song "jaadu hai nasha hai" chimes in and Khushi's eyes default back to him, his eyes still where she left them. Uff the electrifying mutual attraction here is intoxicating, no confusions from her, no walls to hold him back, just two people only seeing, feeling the scorch of each other in a crowded party.


She can't look away, neither can he, soon they embrace in dance of their own, gliding together across the room. He matches her steps , fully aware of the effects they have on each other.

She soon looses him to a guest, but not his attention. Their sizzling atraction, how did they manage to keep is a secret in this room full of people? Even when on opposite side of the room, it was as they were inches from each other. Perhaps that's why Khushi's got flustered when Anajli casually asked where Chotey was, she stayed mum, it may have given her away?
When he walks over he stood by Khushi, but her dhak dhaks definetly got faster than her saansein (breaths)...till La slides in in between. Soon after they were left alone, both in front of each other, hesitating to leave, slowly they start walking the opposite direction

He can no longer fight the magnetism, turning around he catches her attention. With a determination and intentions of some sort he steps towards her, taken back by his fierce-ness, she steps back and bumps into someone. Maybe he would've given her the payal back here had La not snapped her fingers to snap him out of it, but have a feeling there would've been more. Arnav seemed irritated as Khushi had disappeared.
For someone who always accidentally bought these two together, she sure is interrupting them a lot today. Telling of whats to come maybe?
All the enthrallment, the desires, the attractions follow them outside by the poolside to add a little nasha (buzz/high) to their magical night.. Khushi sets up more diyas by the poolside. OP leaves, while a pair of long legs make an entry in slow motion behind her. Alone at last. On his face, a certain sense of urgency to be close to her, a "cant stay away". His voice soft, sweet, vulnerable, uff how her name sounds with his husky voice in such a state.
"Khushi"
Khushi goes still for moment, perhaps that determined walk of his full of intentions still fresh in her mind, she tries to get up fast and loses balance and twists her ankle, but as hamesha, he "sambhaaled" her.
"come"


He walks her a few steps to the lounge chair, and after sitting her down, he kneels inches away from her face, his hands on her shoulder, he's been itching to be this close to her all night. How badly does he want her?

She senses his strong sexual desires for her, as soon as he looks down to her feet, she retracts them under her saari pleats. He look displeased. Immediately with full rights he grabs her hand from the pleats and moves it up but a "trust me" vibe along with it. He lifts up her leg and puts it on his thigh. How very intimate and profound..she is no low-status girl, she's everything.

I can feel his fingers gently brushing on her feet, and bit a of a tickle too.

He gets into position. "thoda dard hoga" a slight warning A quick jerk to the left "aahh" she lets out and her hand immediately grabs on to her shoulder, another quick jerk to the right the same reaction. Who knew sprained ankles can result in such a sexy moments. Only Sobti would make want to sprain my ankle...

The much talked about scene with double meaning, after watching again, the way she grabs his shoulder and especially these sensuality in his eyes as she lets out her pain are suggestive of a sexual act. Perhaps it was the only way the CVs could relay their intensity and the depth of their desires especially on Arnav's side.
"Ab teek hai?" - "is it ok now?"
Not in her right mind to answer him, all she can do is remove her hand off his shoulder fast. Her heel still in his hold, she tries to lift it up but he keeps the hold. she's puzzled. Slowly he reaches into his pocket and pulls up her Amma's payal, his eye go down for a second as he is guilty of taking it and it meant so much to her.


She is in disbelief, questioning him quietly. Seems payal did have one more purpose after all.
I need to stop here with this episode, and brace myself for the major madhhoshiyas (intoxications) on the way.
DROOL CORNER!!!!!!












❤️ this expression as he watched Khushi witness her mehsoos in him❤️
