Rhea, you touch up on a very pertinent point in that red there.. I had that cap saved on my computer wanted to say some thing about it some time ago.. never did.. anyway, its all his "respect" for what his sister/ family/ any ardent believer.. he would save that light becos that's how its supposed to be .. always lighting bright.. he may not believe in its absolute sense and meaning yet has that tolerance for what others believe.. what sets him apart.. that one doesn't necessarily need to have faith to be tolerant to other's belief system..

looking forward to reading ur 248.

thanks for reading..

in pink... exactly. in fact, he went despite all his misgivings and fury... to tell di. but she was pregnant. only then did he decide not to tell her. purpose was clear. he said as much. later to shyam too... had it not been for the pregnancy he would have picked shyam up and thrown him out like the worm he was.

in red. yes major weakness about khushi and her handling of all that pawing and groping and cheating, i have mentioned that many times... and also her complete lack of introspection... it weakened the character... did not make it "achhi". why is it that people just don't understand women? have raved about the messing up of kkg in the last two pages. 😕 hurts me. as kizh wrote... because i am a girl dammit.

asked myself why i watched even then... will jot that down shortly.

Ladkiyon,

Thesis pe thesis on the last two pages!!! 👏⭐️😎

Time, alas, is my dushman right now so am picking up the last post i see here before i leave the building. Just wanted to quickly add that the class divide between the Guptas and the Raizadas is one of the key players in every action the Guptas may have taken or decided to not take. To work for a super wealthy family, then to be married into it...that in itself is a complex dynamic for anybody.

The Raizada man, yes, his actions in comparison to Khushi, always crystal clear...(a lot of it has to also do with performance, of course) ...he always had the conviction to act in a way that was admirable. But he also does come from a place of privilege.

Anjali, i never thought was a complex character so i'm not going into that right now...but will give her some fresh new thought while i get behind the wheel and wade through the endless senseless traffic for the next hour at least...why can't the thread to be on radio??!!😆

But Gandhari...hmmm...that, i agree.

Loving and leaving...
aatey hain.

i have often wondered why i continued to watch ipk.

i do not really watch shows and am not much into movies or anything in a big way. couldn't understand why i had to had to watch ipk even though i was troubled.

have mentioned it before, i came to the forum on 27 march somewhere after the marriage, when khushi is changing every day and i can't get a grip on what's happening.

most of my early posts were about khushi. wanting her to remain who she was... defending her right to not wear strange wig, asking for a reasonable wardrobe, liking her as she was...

gadzooks, would i go to a thing called an online forum for any other show? and knowing full well it's just a tv serial start engaging in hot and bothered conversations about such a clearly "unimportant" thing?

yet i could not stop myself.

and i kept watching the show even when my nerves screamed for mercy, my brain said "bas".

and if i ask myself why, a few things come to mine... actually 3.

1. three guesses he he... barun sobti as asr. i could not walk away.

2. that understanding of love. no matter how much they forgot to tell a good story, the writers seemed to have a keen sense of an emotion. it was somehow always exciting, thrilling... maybe an almost 26/7 year relationship had taught me stuff and i knew what i saw on the screen was delightful because that is the way it was... the mystery, the unfathomable depth, and yet the craziness, the unpredictability, the need that surmounts all, and that thing in it that scales ordinary mortal calibration... i loved that... i wanted to know what happened to khushi and asr. when he saved her on that cliff top and then said he doesn't need proof, when they spoke to each other through another plane... it all felt well worth it. and of course when they noked and jhoked...

3. the jodi. there's chemistry and there's chemistry. this was explosive, but not only that... it had light in it. i am no saint, thank g, i have all the shades of light and its absence in me... you can have a dark, thick chemistry that takes you to not the best places in you. oh that too is valid and potent... but it is tied to the earth. barun and sanaya can ignite me with one look at each other, but it feels pristine, there is a joy there. a beauty. it's erotic, not dirty. it's energetic, alive, and bright. that not a single hint of dirt amid a consuming erotic appeal... i love that. and they feel so young and vibrant together. i actually have never seen a jodi like this. and words are inadequate really.

and i have to confess as far as i am concerned... if barun left the show, i would too. if sanaya left, i would miss her very badly, but i would still watch to see if things worked out. and if not, i'd still come and look only at you know who...
