so good. and so many levels of hotness. he says come me with me, she says i won't, payal is standing right there and they are doing this takraar. khushi may not realise it, but she was definitely looking to roil him, she wanted him to go nuts... why, did she ever ask herself teehee. they were both so remarkably good. sanaya, not bothered about looking pretty looked gorgeous... her acting and expressions in thsi episode... she was hilarious doing the akash thing, beautiful dialogues. and he with shades and stubble and what the f... and anger. the towel scene quite contrived but did i care. and the whole won't come, will come, the shrug and slightly raised eyebrows, the anger, the ire, the as you wish, the for some reason di thinks she can be of help, the slight smile when she says yes, she'll come... and that are you listening to me... straight after the serious i have spoken to la she told me to tell you she is ok... ufff. his face straight after that when he sees the towel... i want my ipk back.

Episode 292

It came as a surprise how good the episode was. And it also came as a surprise how sad I felt seeing Shantivan get shrouded in silence with ashanti seeping through.

Our hero was back. For almost three episodes there was high voltage drama. Shyam with his insults and insinuations, Anjali with her delusions, NK with his wide eyed innocence, mamiji with her preconceived notions, Payal after a long time fearless and taking a stand, Akash clueless as usual, nani watchful and mindful of tragedy. There was Khushi looking beautiful and tragic, speaking her mind, fighting to prove herself right, intensely human in these episodes. And there was ASR still in his ragged filthy torn vest and trouser combo that time and again reminds me of a fashion disaster.😆 But he looked completely hot and at home in it, specailly when he slapped Shyam. Twice. Once for each of the women paramount to his existence.

fashion disaster! haha, yeh to IPK ka trend hai. bizarre fashion.

But most of the time the BD was there except some few flat expressions of ASR.

So you are happy with two slaps. Sorry I'm not. I was expecting some gruesome punishment.

The episode started with ASR grabbing Shyam's collar and dragging him to the front door. Literally, and not just figuratively, throwing him out. For close to three episode the hero who can't stand drama or anything even remotely galat was shown doing nothing. Now perhaps Barun is back to shoot full time or perhaps ASR has put his foot down and refuses to remain silent any longer. He has listened fairly❓ and given everyone a chance to speak. It is time to do what he knows to be right. He denounces the unfaithful husband, declares he trusts Khushi and closes the shuts the on Shyam's face.

Anjali almost withers away in shock and denial while ASR rests his frame on the closed doorway, head bent. It has been a never ending ordeal. One that started much before the three episodes of unendurable silence, also before the days of kidnap. It had started the day a smiling hopeful man, in love for the very first time, had reached the terrace. To tell her wo baat.. because bas karni thi.. and instead he had seen his love in the arms of his sister's husband. The man whose judgement he had respected. And the man whom he trusted enough to let his di marry him.

But ASR is back in this episode. Minimum fuss and the depraved man who has hurt both di and Khushi has been removed from sight.

I cannot explain why the police weren't call. Could be to save di further pain. Could be that ASR wanted to deal with this thing as fast as possible and move on to more fruitful tasks,❓ like making sure di is fine. Could be the story writers needed to leave a loophole to get the villain back if they needed it. Could be that ASR was too impatient to change, maybe finally have a cup of coffee and rest, to waste breath on a depraved Shyam.

he was not in a hurry to change. He was sitting in his room, thinking about his di even after entering his safe heaven.

A fiend like man, wicked and heinous than anything will do nothing when he freed to go and an astute man like ASR believed this? Cum on if ASR was so naive then he couldn't build an empire in such young age! the man who locked Khushi for the whole night for intruding his fashion show, the same man just let a murderer go without punishing him! Just couldn't digest it.

On a serious note. I love how straightforward ASR is. "Di I am sorry, janta hun aapko bahut takleef ho rahi hai, but I trust khuhsi".

yes my ASR was actually back with this dialogue.

His watchful intelligent eyes focus right towards his di. The one most affected by this revelation. I sometimes forget how young he is. How calmly he states he believes the veracity in Khushi. All those tears and accusations all around and here comes the firm statement. He know Khushi is speaking the truth. And I am very happy he does not explain more. It might have made it easier for others in the house to negate Shyam's allegations against Khushi if ASr divulged more details or laid forth more connections. However, even elaborating on Khushi's behaviour means there is a possibility that she has to be proven right. It appeals to me more that he takes it as a fact, no proof needed and no explanations given to prove it.

here we go. ASr was kidnapped again when he was standing in front of the RM's threshold, asking Khushi did she have any proof. But from this episode the ASR is rescued from the hostage again.

Di sways to fall. Not surprising that her chote is the first to react. Agile, alive as he sprints to her and catches her on time. A few days later as she will roll down steps he will sadly be too late. In tears the family crowds around an unconscious Anjali.

She opens her eyes and moves to sit up. And thus begin the scenes that move me to tears on every watch. Her hand stops her chote from providing her support. He understands and in this moment whom does his eyes turn to? Khushi. She is right there for him. Has noticed the way di distanced herself from him. Anjali looks completely in shock. Hurting acutely. In fact so much that she is almost in trauma. But even now my eyes are on ASR. How does Barun make me experience a wretched helplessness in ASR's silence and in his haunted tormented eye?

In this scene I really felt for Anjali, It's not easy for a woman to accept the deception from her husband whom she loves blindly. My sympathy was with her till she attempted to kill her child. her innocent baby is more beloved than her swindler husband!

This is completely my point of view. But there are times when shielding someone from the truth is more detrimental than being a little strict and letting him face it. Mami, Akash even nani want to protect Anjali. In fact they all have forgotten that Arnav Singh Raizada has just returned freeing himself from his kidnappers, so wrapped up are they in the daughter of the house. But her much younger brother knows it is best to talk about what happened. She deserves to know and however tough it maybe, he will explain.

When nani asks for details, with disarming earnestness and respect ASR agrees... "jee nani". He will bear the brunt of the showdown and his decision. And though he looks dead tired, he will continue to fulfill each one of his responsibilities. But first he needs to talk to di.. "Please".. That "please" had me sobbing.

AWW, cum on i'll hug you now.🤗

Everyone leaves, but a forlorn and extremely worried Khushi hesitates. I do empathize with her. Her biggest fear was what would happen to Arnavji and more importantly Anjali after knowing the man Anjali kept on a pedestal and worshiped was in reality the complete opposite.. twisted and depraved. That was the fear that had stopped Khushi of speaking of it when she had come to expose Shyam after she found his identity. Wish she had spoken of it then. Now not only is she instrumental in barring him from Shantivan, but before that happened he has also managed to deeply poison everyone against Khushi. Khushi, who needs everyone to be happy around her and with her, must feel awful to be the bone of contention.

I felt terrible for this orphan girl. Rather showing gratitude to rescue Arnav from death everybody was looking at her with loathe. Nobody even cared that she also came from near death.

ASR and Khushi steal my heart again. His gentle gesture for her to leave. He is aware of everyone's state and is taking utmost care. And with khushi there is a sense of right, his wife. They have just returned from that cliff after all! All other relations have some amount of formality, but with khushi he can be himself completely and unguardedly. She understands and leaves. I whimper some more.

Very nice dialogues in the scene that follow. He could not hide the truth any longer. And he told the truth, however painful, for the sake of his di and her unborn child. It must be one of the hardest acts, to know whatever you do, the one you love has to suffer nonetheless. The attention to detail. "isliye"..pause.."Shyam ko ghar se nikalne". No longer jeejaji, he is Shyam. His hesitation in changing the way he addressed Shyam shouts of all that the man has meant to not only di, but also ASR. A stellar performance as always by Barun. Though am crying at how the brother's heart will break I am still thrilled that our hero is back.

But Anjali is ASR's support too. In the earlier episodes when he missed ma he had rest his head on her lap. And today he does the same. He has not been able to protect her. Even his trust is broken. He knows both need each other. Beautiful scene of him lying on her lap and Khushi crying against the wall.

I wish if anjali also would've felt same like her brother!

She has gone through hell herself and now seeing Arnavji broken, his di lifeless, the poor girls breaks down. As she continues her vigil outside the room, where the brother sister are, I am reminded of the very first time she witnessed this bond. The mandir where she had watched from far, surprised that the rakshas could care do deeply about his di. Three young individuals unaware of what travails life had in store for them in the days to come.

nice thought rhea.

Anjali is shown remembering a man who was always good to her. Who must have married her when she might not have thought such happiness was even possible. Who had married her despite her limping foot, despite the fact that her marriage had broken earlier. In fact, as Sohara had pointed out, perhaps despite the fact that she is older to him. Anjali remembers her husband from the past 3 years (it it 3 years?) Who calls her rani sahiba and treats her like a princess. Makes her feel loved and special. The man she is about to have a child with.

Already mentioned above, not easy.

Tough times make us discover startling insights about ourselves and the people around us. Always warring mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hold onto each other. The crass Manorma, who never misses an opportunity to jest about her strict sasuma, weeps into this mother like figure's lap. And her sasuma, who never had one good word for her bahuriya, lovingly pats her head in consolation.

the scene was just very much IPK.

Aakash, nani, mami all have shared a bond with the damadji of the house. And what strikes me in the flashback is how different Shyam looked. Thin. And less filmy. He was a believable weak character.

I also noticed. he actually looked boyish. people changes so much in a year!

Troubled times also let us identify the true mettle in one's character. They tried hard to cover up Payal's strength under heavy jewellery, open hair and silk sarees, 😆but today she has broken free in her sister's defense. She will also remain loving. NK has remained loyal and unshakable. Also very sensible throughout.

NK and nani, with these two characters I guess cvs was consistent

Khushi and Arnav's love has forged a deep bond of trust that can withstand anything. Nani will understand, mami won't. Aakash has reasons to feel hurt. Still his reaction will be quite weak. We are what we truly are, when we are tested.

Usually I don't understand much of symbolism, but NK views the aftermath of the war. Krishna stands before me surveying the destruction evil left behind in its wake.

Destruction it is... Anjali slips her hand from her chotes grasp.. Chote who is no longer chote.. Circumstances has forced her to choose between her chote and her shyamji. One is safe and sound in front of her. And the other has been forbidden from her life. She has loved her Shyamji. And life has damaged her too. She might have been sunny and cheerful, but she was brittle inside. Remember the tears when he almost did not show up for teej? Today she chooses denial. And her anger and unease come out on the person who is the closest to her, even though she has forgotten that in this moment. Chote has become Arnav. And I notice her limp is even more pronounced.

good observation. It was a heart breaking moment for Arnav.

He pleads. ASR is utterly helpless, and pleads. I cry some more. His voice... Vulnerable, a hint of panic, helplessness, was there a 14 year old here as well? His di is hurting and this once there is nothing that he can do to make it better.

Another telling gesture. Nani moves to console a crying Khushi, mami stops her. Akash starts to walk away from Payal. In a way he does have a right to be angry at Payal, still I feel bad for her. NK watches all, knows whose right, perhaps feels equally helpless. And after too long two sisters are there for each other.

loved this moment.

Anjali has decided to live in denial because that is the only way she will survive.

that what she thinks. Life is much greater than Shyam and I wish if she would've realised it soon.

She does not have the strength yet to face life without her Shyamji. And given the shock who would think clear headed? So she does not reason that if she thinks Shyam is right that means ASR is gravely wrong. Is that possible? Would ASR play with his di's happiness? If only the haze of pain receded enough for her to see how much in pain her chote was too. But the writers have decided Anjali is to remain deluded, so there is no chance for her to slowly come to terms with the fact that Shyam was just not what everyone thought he was. Sadly there is no question of Anjali to connect dots, recollect discrepancies in Shyam's behaviour and loopholes in his stories.

Anjali didn't misunderstand Arnav, she thought he was misguided by his wife. In few episodes we will see her confession, that she thinks chottey has changed, because he fall in love.

lovey collage. the best moment of the episode.

A tender moments unfolds as husband wife are back in their room. He has finally changed. It feels good to see him in his sweatshirt. Khushi has also washed away the dirt and grime from the day, but the pain of the hurtling insults remains. Only the insults can't hurt, because Arnavji drove it away, and not before declaring, she is as important as di. Her respect means everything. That after everything he is safe, right here and he trusts her. Without proof, simply, steadfast, he believes her.

I wonder who thought of sending the cup of coffee? Was it HP's way of welcoming the man sorely missed? His way of taking a side. My thoughts are running to strange places, since each action, each frame seems significant today.

nice thought. HP is very much member of the family. remember on the rakhi day he was suggesting arnav to take off his kurta thought he was uncomfortable!

How is this man this flawless? how is his perfomance so stellar that it does not even seem possible? How is the music so soft and uplifting? How do the same makers who wrote the past two episodes know this is how the moment should play out. In a hushed gentle silence...

can't agree more.

He is lost is thought, a dejected look on his face. And dark grieving irises that are shimmering with tears. A stance that speaks of how much he has lost in the few hours he has returned back home. Her hands shiver with nerves. Her eyes are downcast. He stood up for her. He is hurting badly because of his di. And Khushi considers herself the cause of all the discord and distress. She is almost hunched over, a wish to disappear, eyes brimming with unshed tears. Not sure how to approach him. Not sure if he even wants her near. Desperate to be near him.

yup, she thought she is responsible and too hesitant to go near him.

When has ASR disappointed in moments like these? He is grandson, brother, head of the house. He has performed all his duties. But he is also a husband today. Infinitely tender towards his wife. The girl who saved him. The girl he almost lost to death and fought hard to bring back for himself. The girl he has misjudged and punished for no fault of hers. The girl whom he left to fight alone against evil while he stood silent and watched.

well said and above all the girl whom he loves like crazy.

He needs her as much as she needs him. The symphony rises in as his hand reached out to stop her from leaving him. Never again... And she comes willing into his arms. Drawing him as close as possible. Flowing into each other, their bodies melding. She weeps in relief, in guilt for causing a problem, in empathy. His hand lovingly stokes her hair. A protective gesture. He will not let any harm come to her. He is strong for her sake, and her presence infuses strength in him too.

Their love has a positive reinforcement I feel sometimes that makes both strive to be better, happier and complete. in fact there is no need to strive. it just happens from the power of their love.👏

She looks fragile in his arms as he picked her up and cradled her in his arms. Lays her down, tucks her in and turns to leave to fight the darkness threatening to envelope his family. But, now her hand stops him. She still needs him. Don't go... plead her eyes. Specially not when I have just found you.. and when you are hurting and breaking inside.. Again I feel this gives him strength to bear the misery. A glimmer of a smile as he sits next to her. There are no words that can be said tonight. But his hand will lovingly cup her face, and she will snuggle into it sobbing and drift asleep.

I watch and cry a little hysterically. There is a moment he gazes at her, his head angled as he pushed away some strands of her hair off her face. I see love. And it is indescribable in it's absolute beauty.

This last pic says million things to me

He is not a boy any more...HE IS A HUSBAND NOW ALONG with all the avatars but he has changed into this one in a very strong way and he proved to her with very notion from now on that she is in his protective shell for forever...

My comments are in between

episode 291

"chhoti hain... man kaccha... kuchh bhi soch leta."

she's young... her mind is tender... imagines anything.

a slew of words slowly getting more and more disgusting and dripping with insinuation came from shyam. as everyone stood and looked more and more shocked.

he pranced around, charging anyone who questioned him. payal and khushi were reduced to a couple of scheming sisters from less wealthy homes who were out to snare rich boys and wreck their homes, some barbaad making plan apparently. no one asked why they should marry into wealth only to destroy everything. khushi apparently was out of control in her desire for shyam and just to stave her off and keep the happiness and peace of the home, hai re nand kissore, the sweet man, helpless too, had signed on the papers that said he is divorcing his one and only heartthrob, raanisahiba. yup when you put it this way it does make complete sense. how could it be any other way indi di?

okay, plenty drama right through the episode. a sense of a typical loud hindi serial brewed. i tried my level best to push off that feeling and watched for every little thing. maybe something would touch me... take me to the place ipk often does.

nah... nothing was good. till much later.

but yeah, i could see more of the asr man today, not just his not really double. and he just looked so much into the tension of the moment... and magnificent in banyan most filthy, that i gawked at him...

but even i could not understand how he kept quiet after the disgusting... man kaccha hai dialogue.

this is a man who slapped a business associate because he had mentioned hsi mother's name in vain... the man who had snapped a girl's dori because she had said what if your sister went through this kind of thing, her marriage broke too on her wedding night?... this was their first meeting and he not really the type to go about snapping strings... but mention his mother or sister in a way not respectful, and you've had it.

now a complete liar and cheat and transgressor of all propriety hurls insult after insult upon his wife, and he stands there quiet. supposedly concerned about his sis, so not saying anything.

well.

what.

ev.

er.

oh and seems khushi ji was giving "tarah tarah ke ishare" to shyam, was indulging in loads of "giri hui harkate", she had crossed all "hadein". am so enjoying your take.

"bas ho gaya!"

well, one voice spoke up. the elder sister.

a moving dialogue, "yeh parivar toh ussi din toot jata jisdin inko aapki poori asliyat pata chalti" this family would have broken that day itself the day the truth about shyam came out. they had kept quiet because they loved di so much. she moves up to anjali. deepali always had potential, a graceful and deep feel to her portrayal of payal. so wish they had thought her role through. she was quite a decent actress. some of the earlier sequences with khushi, such a genuine jiji Khushi bond.

this whole drama has by now become all about anjali.

khushi is just there, a raving screaming helpless girl... no one to turn around and say, no. she is not like that.

not even nani? not even once?

what sort of writing was this?

the paying guest story came out and was trashed, as was the engagement story, khushi rushed to di and said she never wanted all this to come out. at one level i can believe that... she knew exactly where the revelation would lead to.

or did she?

funny, isn't it? the truth khushi tried so hard to hide thinking it will destroy di's faith and her happiness, when it did get revealed, not quite what khushi had expected happened.

di clung on to her illusion even tighter.

when di had practically swooned earlier, asr had moved... swiftly as is his wont... and said, let's talk about this later and tried to walk away with her.

that felt strange too. leaving khushi alone, he walks off. wouldn't he have turned to khushi at that point and said, get some water treating her almost like a part of himself, depending on his patni... and directed payal to organise the pillows in di's room or something? uff, i remembered him putting on her seatbelt the day they went looking for di before rakhi... the girl he had screamed get ooout to and then gone and insulted with wads of notes... her seatbelt.

but now just saunter off leaving khushi with at this dangerous crossroads?

"nahin, saaley sahab..." shyam had roared, and insisted all shall be resolved now.

a moment of extreme anger and control on asr's face then, had me hyperventilating of course.

back to shyam. when he accused payal of keeping quiet because she was getting married into such a "bade parivar", i was a bit what the.

so what was this? was shyam admitting that something indeed had happened?

it is all taken to frenzy with shyam saying khushi is a mental case with
"ghatiya dimagi bimari."

at last, khushi tries valiantly again, "jhoot... sab jhoot!" she exclaims and speaks of her "nafrat" for shyam, turning to asr.

oh that seems to really get shyam... cut him somewhere despite his wild remorseless treatment of the woman he supposedly loves. well isn't this exactly the way you are supposed to treat the one you love madly and can divorce your wife for?

ha, classic cretin problem. can't handle rejection.

the nastiness scales an ignominious pinnacle. why, he asks, if she indeed hates him so much, does she come to his room all the time? ugh. he brings up kheer, her saying she is lonely, and then how she had said she wants to destroy asr.

had she or not?

nk speaks up now, khushi was lying to you so she can find her way to asr.
family watches everything... absolutely hindi serial style.

the biggest loss post kidnap: the spirit and body language of ipk. oh it was entrenched enough to fight out of the darkness and show itself from time to time, especially when asr and khushi were on screen, but as a show definitely a permanent damage had been sustained in some unseen, unknown battle.

and sorry, i don't think it was just a trp issue. something else was there. and just as we'll never know the back story of shyam, we'll never get any clarity on this behind the scenes story either.

look at the situation, shyam is now telling nk he is an innocent, "arrey agar hum isse bach nahin paaye toh aap kya cheez hain", if i coiuldn't save myself from her, what are you...

and asr is still quiet..

"hum sabko apne aagey peechhe nachana chahti hain," she wants us all to dance to her tune... so khushi is now the femme faale and asr the man without a shut up or a dammit. she has the right dress, upbringing, moral values, look to be the femme fatale. definitely. yes everyone is convinced that she is the man stealer.

the drama is pushed up higher...

"haan humne kaha tha!" yes, i said that, khushi shouts. "aapka vishwas jeetne ke liye." to win your trust. again she turns to di... i did all this to save arnav ji. shyam accuses her... aap apne dil ko bachane ke liye... you did it to save your heart and there's no place for you in my heart.

"arnav ji, hamey vishwas kijiye," khushi turns to asr.
why? why should she be given this to say? ridiculous after that clifftop really.

shyam calls her opportunist... why is everyone so still i keep thinking.

"arnav ji, aap ko hum pe vishwas karna hi hoga," you have to believe me, i liked the have to... her right. ok I just did not like anything about this.

shyam calls her "makkar", "giri hui"... "apne jeeja pe dorey bhi daal sakti hain"... she can lure her own brotgeher in law, icky filthy allegations. she is out to destroy the family...

okay, asr showed reaction but di was fainting, so he held back.

and nk kept quiet this time round?

and finally finally finally, the writers' precious dialogue about i have no proof but look into my eyes got said. tiring, really. why must a fabulous story of love start sounding like a little short story, pithy and too pretty? this is the story where the hero hurtles heroine to a self styled wedding because she is a home wrecker but he can't let her go and she hates him but she can't stop loving him as he destroys her dreams... this is a story where things get so ugly at times that you know it's all absolutely utterly flawlessly beautiful... can I whisper in your ear? I have actually started finding "sweet getting along" boring.. what's love without a little shut up get out koi farak nai parta dammit.

why this collapsing of scale suddenly?

"arnav ji, bas ekbaar hamari aankhon mein dhyan se dekhiye aur fir faisla kijiye ki kya sach hai aur kya jhoot..."

music in.

asr starts walking up.

tak tak taktaktak tak takatak... asr's signature tune drum roll.

i am feeling suddenly like the people in the cheap seats ready to whistle and hurl coins... my man moves.

he looks at her... eyes slide slowly to shyam. that asr eye slide, okay?

shyam wonders if he has won.

crash.

first slap.

all look shocked, offering a series of predictable expressions to camera... very very hindi ekta ishtyle serial.

"yeh meri di ko dhoka dene ke liye," this is for cheating on my sis. low low lethal vocal chord work.

slap.

"aur yeh meri patni se badtameezi karne ke liye..." and this is for being ill mannered, with my wife. meri patni... i felt good.

and how delicate that choice of word... badtameezi... he turns off the lantern to shield her from even his own gaze, he will not use words of a certain ugliness if they are to be associated with her.

which is why he will not stand there like a helpless idiot while his wife's name is being slandered. heck, her character is being slain.. one might even say violated, mauled. he would have asked mami to take care of di and bashed the guy up way back.

"ye dono insaan meri zidagi mein sabse zyada important hain... aur tumne in dono ko dukh pahunchane ki galati ki hai!" the two most important people in his life... what a moment in story. he says it... the man with dark inert eyes, who had held on to just one relationship to stay focussed on life... to withstand the sledgehammer blow life dealt and prevail, today has added a person to his rather short least of imp people... ready at last perhaps... to live. all the way. wow. I have just one. and reading this makes me extremely proud of myself.

i know i am not making much sense. but that addition of another imp person... a huge huge story in asr's life. that is what perhaps changes his demeanour post return from kidnap. at last a man who wants to be happy, not just for di... but for himself. who is claiming back his right to be happy, feel things, who will say at last, aur main? because he does want to matter to her, like hell and he wants her for himself.

i want to slap shyam once more for good measure, this is too delightful a moment not to partake of some pleasure.

"raanisahiba...," whimpers shyam.

"no..." full dilli amriki accent asr. hayeee, sohara, i know this is not an american accent, but oh it's delightful... an accent grabbed and owned by a young man edgily, coolly and aggressively.

yes... you are back finally, arnav singh raizada. welcome home.

"not any more..." r rolling yes, yes.

"out of this house... i said, get out... main tumhe iss ghar ko aur dukh nahin dene doonga," he is hauling shyam out.

"akash... i said call the damn secutity now!" he orders akash to get something done, as he often does with people around him, taking charge of a situation. so irritating and so cute this hollering out to the rest... laad governor he is. he definitely would have called out, "khushi, get soem water..." as he led his dear sister away, and also, "payal... pillows dekho theek hain ki nahin di ke bed par..., come, di!"

as asr came on, and despite the extreme drama that ensued, suddenly that gooey desperate soap feeling of the episode left, scurrying out before asr caught it be the collar and threw it out. something about barun sobti's acting... always a touch of a classic no nonsense in it. a thousand rabba ve moments he could keep looking fresh and non corny... even while thinking perhaps as barun, it is corny; but as actor, always finding a solution.

how terribly non-soapy is asr, is barun. asr somehow is never restricted by these sets, by the tenor of the genre, nothing. always in his own space, his own domain.

shyam is all soap, so is abhaas. khushi too, but sanaya struggles not to give in.

"mujhe yeh insaan ghar ke bahar chahiye... abhi!"

let me listen to that voice say harsh things now and forever.

no asr did not do though all he could have done. we thought there would be more to come, touched by asr shatirness, the makers thought otherwise. they even took away his office from him, almost. and yet, for about one hundred episodes two actors did all they could to keep it all alive.

big salaams to both.
