Saying Hello- Ek saal baad: Tum theek ho? - Page 4

Haven't graduated.

Have moved continents.

Haven't had babies.

Have become an aunt...ek baar phir.

Haven't met the universal Bhaiyya and Bhabhi.

Have spent some quality time with just my Bhaiyya and Bhabhi.

Haven't stopped watching ismailvegamze (not more than once in three weeks... I swear on my mother).

Have started writing fan fiction.

Haven't understood what they mean when they say 'Get a life.'

Have made some wonderful friends on the internet who don't get it either.

Haven't stopped talking about Arnav and Khushi.

Have vaguely given up on convincing the non-believers that their lives will change if they watch IPK.

On the TV front, I have continued watching Mahadev on and off. For purely religious reasons. I swear on Mahadev's six pack abs.

I have occasionally watched the Child Bride, despite my misgivings about the new Anandi. Because Shiv is a dashing do-gooder. And Jagya is a stud-muffin whom EVERY woman who is not his sister/mother/aunt wants. Because Saanchi is a brat who recently got drunk and enacted a drunk scene that nearly rivaled Veeru's chakki-peesing scene. Because I love consummation scenes insinuated by 70's Hindi film-walein euphemisms.

I have caught a few episodes of Sasural Simar Ka, where Kajol's long lost younger sister was recently pretending to be a rich businesswoman for reasons that are too complicated to explain in one post.

I have, thanks to the thread-maker, been forced to watch the mumbling Shahenshah in action, where he asks his wife how she's pregnant if he did not impregnate her. (I think that is what he said. Nothing is confirm.)

I know that Archana plays her own granddaughter now. Or Ankita plays her own grandmother. Jo bhi. The generation in between is as gobsmacked as the audience.

I have heard that Shlok has now revealed his true colours. Which everyone except Aastha saw coming. "Never trust a man in a black ganjee."-- CravingKhana

I recently discovered that Gopi Vau has a family after all. And that her sister is imaginatively named Radha. And that one boy called Umang has been taking revenge from the Modi's on and off for a few years, and still has no other occupation. Oh! And Ahem dikra is no longer in doubt about his consummation of their marriage.

I have gotten my Mom to stop watching Ram and Priya ki dastaan after the third generation leap in five months.

I get inordinately excited when I catch Dogra or Nandkishore or Sana Khan in any other show/advertisement, like it's a personal achievement or something.

I now have all the names of the siblings, cousins, spouses of Babool Jai down pat. And thank god for small mercies, that IPK ended before Sobti began sporting a ponytail.

If anyone is willing to pay me to sit and home and watch TV and write nonsense on the internet all day, I would appreciate it very much.

So bottom line is, haan hum theek hai. IF ke wajah se nahi, uske bawajood. TFS to IF for giving me all these wonderful people. What would I do without you all? :')

Hello Hi! Hope you are well.

@blue- Well, that's true and we have some wonderful memories from reading those threads. Mine involve laughing loudly at work so everyone stared. (Shyam had an incubator in his lair where he was growing Anjali's twins. Not joking. No).

But that's not the Sons of Shyam joke. No, no. Sons of Shyam was an abuse hurled at us when someone said something flippant. And some poor unsuspecting soul responded- don't pay any attention to those people who are criticizing XYZ point in the show. They are ALL SONS OF SHYAM.

Again, NOT. JOKING.

So yeah- if you're a SON OF SHYAM like me- HIGH FIVE!

the nth character replacement in child bride leading to an end of my very short stint with CB since its inception (not immaculate at all ... way too messy) ...

Given up on the hope of seeing Akbar actually use his sword ... why the hell can't he fight like he did in Prithviraj C *sigh*

Oh & Sem ... you should watch Munna munni. It is amazing --- wants you to strangle yourself & the moron on the tv at the sametime ... kweet?? Errr ... well that's Hindi TV soaps at their best !!

Welcome back Maxine after such a long time and as usual I couldn't stop laughing while reading your post, my last year has literally been spent on the roads dropping three daughters to three different schools which r miles miles apart so its me and the car and the peak traffic but at the same time all this effort feels so worthwhile since both the elder ones r doing so so great at their respective schools and making me a truly proud mum.

I am not watching the re runs of the show as its not that old to watch it again and definitely not watching any other soap as I don't have the patience to watch soap anymore as after sometime they all look the same with the same stupid tracks, IPK with its new concept was just an exception... I am waiting for koffee with Karan though to start plus I am an avid reader of arshi fan fics and thanks to Gul for creating such powerful characters and thanks to all the amazing and fabulous writers who write these brilliant stories.
