Hi guysss, hope everyone had a good weekend. I was soooo happy when I read Rumi's update today! Hey, something's better than NOTHING, right? 😳
1) HUM DIL: Okay, so I think that apparently, the new scriptwriters of Jassi have decided to get someone else to do their work for them. So far, 3 Bollywood blockbusters have had their scenes ripped off in order to become a scene for JJKN. Number one, the counting stars scene from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai where Shah Rukh & Kajol ask about each other's wishes was pretty evident in Rhea & Armaan's scene of the same. Number two, the church scene b/w Hrithik & Rani in Mujhse Dosti Karoge was similar to our very own AJ scene from Thursday & today. And the best was today, where they even used the music from the movie they're ripping off. I mean, I guess that's their way of giving credit to the people who had the ORIGINAL thought in their head? 😕 Today's was simply the Salman/Ajay Devgan scene from Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam where Salman learns the lyrics of Dhol Baaje...at least Apoorva & Karan are MUCH lovelier to look at! NOTE TO THE WRITERS: Taking scenes from ORIGINAL blockbusters MAY gain a viewer or two back...but you still have a LONG way to go if you want to see any of the TRP's of the old days. 🤢
2) JASSI'S SMILE: I read a lot of posts today where everyone was wondering why Jassi started smiling when she saw Armaan in the street & how that was the last reaction that they would have expected from her. In reality, I think that she just was listening to PERSONALITY # 1: Jasmeet Walia. PERSONALITY # 1 spoke to PERSONALITY # 3: Neha Shastri, and said, "SMILEEE...THAT'S THE SAME GUY WHO YOU PRESUMED TO BE DEAD. SAME GUY YOU LEFT @ THE MANDAP. SAME GUY WHO YOU OBSESSED OVER YOUR WHOLE LIFETIME. SMILEEEE." Then, when that smile of hers stopped was when JassiCeha got confused & was like, "Ummm...does this mean that I have to become someone else AGAIN!? Da*n you, Armaan...there are only so many people I can become!" 😡 Okay, but as I was watching, I couldn't help but leave the poor girl alone because she was smiling as she was thinking of her old Armaan days...hey, if her multi-identity smile means that I get to see those flashbacks, then smile away, oh nutty lady!!! 😃
3) HEY HEYS: I don't know if it's just me but I'm so happy to have the "HEYYY HEYYY" music back on the show. It's SOOO much better than that "AHHHHHHAHHAAAHHHH" music thing they have whenever Armaan is depressed (even though they did have it today). I wonder if JJKN will be the first show to make an entire song out of just "HEY HEYYYS"...I know that I'd probably go & download it too...looks like I'm just as crazy as the people who make the show.
4) I was SO happy to see the old A-J scenes tonight. They were so cute...I actually miss the old nerdy Jassi. She was so cute & scared & awkward. The best was the "last goodbye" scene when Jassi was leaving Gulmohur...that hug is the BEST thing to see...plus with the background of "tu mera armaan hai" from "Tu Meri Jaan" playing, it only made it all the more better. 👏 (Relax, T & D...that's the first applauding emoticon you've gotten from me...& I have a feeling with your track record, it's most likely going to be the last.) 🤢
5) I don't know who remembers the scene from the CJ welcome party when Raj & Armaan are sitting on the car & Armaan is singing (forgot the song). Apoorva Agnihotri has a nice voice! They should have used it tonight too...the dude who was singing with Karan sounded like what I imagine a constipated Armaan would sound like...although, okay, I really don't have mental images of a constipated Armaan ever...but you get the drift. 😉 In any case, Armaan patting himself on the back for a job well done after that was cute too...& SEEING HIS DIMPLE AFTER A WHILE WAS MUCH CUTER!!! 😳
6) This is the one day I liked Karan Oberoi as Raghav. The way he embarrassed Khatra Khatri was priceless. It takes a lot to shut that woman up & whoever is capable of it, more power to you. I'd really rather not hear the sound of a dying cow when she opens her mouth...isn't it sacreligious? 🤔 But Raghav Sir/Reggie/Raghav Ji was mighty fine today...just don't get any bright ideas tough guy (I somehow think we're not in danger of that happening anyway) & stay away from JassiCeha...well, unless you'd like to add yourself to the many men who now own the t-shirt that says, "JASSI SCREWED ME OVER & ALL I GOT WAS THIS STUPID T-SHIRT." 😛
7) Ahem, ahem...NOOOO, not THAT kind, I'm just clearing my throat...😆...any of you who watch today's episode again, check out that priest's hair who comes onto the frame when Rhea is praying @ the church. I think he took the hair of all of the senior citizens in Nainital & made a wig out of it for himself. All you Nainital residents, beware of bald old people!!! 😲 I feel bad because I was trying to listen to what the priest had to say but all I could concentrate on was that homeless bird orphanage that was on his head. 😕
8) I have a complaint about Khatra Khatri. Actually, who am I kidding, I have a million of them, but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, can we not make her Gujarati!? Last time, she turned me off of dhokla. Today, I had to hear garba music when she appeared on screen...I am a garba FREAK...& stoopid Khatra just made me feel very sadly about the upcoming Navratri because now I'm going to see her pointy-nosed face in my head every time I try to dance. 😭
9) WHAT is with the title sequence change? First, when they kept the old AJ pic, I had a tiny flicker of reunion hope. But now, even though Armaan is in it, he looks depressed & so does Jassi!!! Who the hell wants to see the love story of a manicly depressed man and a schizophrenic woman??? That's enough to give you as a VIEWER a psychiatric problem!!! (Although who knows how many sane ones are even left out of us?) 😵
10) Even when he doesn't have to come in to shoot for the show, WHY OH WHY does Pink Chadds still haunt us? I cannot see that stupid scene anymore! Luv_Ranveer, did you pay the powers that be to keep showing Pink Chadds on our television screens!? I know you love him & all, but trust us, we have NO qualms about you keeping him to yourself!!! 🤢😉 I do, however, want you to try & understand that he has left us for the pinker...excuse me, GREENER pastures of Chaddi World.😆
11) For the amount of times that JassiCeha goes to the "market", you'd think that she would have the sense to buy herself some new clothes!!! How long can you stay there with the same outfit? I mean, come on, after being Jessica Bedi, supermodel, for such a long time, you may have gotten tired of haute couture, but have you gotten tired of CLEAN clothing???
12) It looks like Rhea has been using some hair relaxer lately. That giant wing-like bang of hers seems to have taken a sedative & calmed down a little bit. Now if only she takes her salary & invests in a good bottle of BLACK hair dye instead of that neon colored thing she's been using. Come on girl, you ALMOST got me to like you right now by bringing A & J together...fix the hair, get a little "wink help", & tell your eyebrows to stop raising themselves & furrowing like you're constantly surprised followed by worried, & I may like you completely. JUST DON'T SCREW THIS UP! 😃
13) The preview made me happy obviously. Jassi calling herself Armaan's wife, Rhea looking terrified that Armaan Sir's "patni" may end up being Mallika Ma'am @ the hospital, etc. I just hope that they actually show that scene tomorrow. I don't believe anything until I read the updates after the Raj/Armaan preview letdown. 😔 With our luck, they'll reverse everything so that that whole rumor about Jassi having a dream will actually come true, but it will come true NOW, & Jassi will wake up to find herself alone in Nainital. No Armaan, no Rhea. Just us. As fools. AS USUAL. 😭😕
14) I hate everyone involved with the employment of PERVMAN. 👎🏼 I KNEW that it was too good to be true that he would be the latest inductee into the Universal Pariahs Club. This guy seems to have a resumee of GOLD with the quickness that he gets jobs. I hate the "Seths" who apparently are PERVERTlal's newest employers as well as the rulers of Nainital. (Whoever knew Nainital was a monarchy, raise your hand!) Funny that Armaan now has another bunch of Seths to be terrified of...the first one being his wife...OH YEAHHH, REMEMBER HER!?!?!? 🤢 I can't believe they brought him back though...doesn't Rajesh Khattar have better things to do than play a dirty old man on a TV serial??? Rajesh, I will become a movie producer/director & hire you as my hero opposite Ketaki Dave (Khatra Khatri) as your romantic lead if you would JUST GET OFF OF MY SHOW!!! I know you're a writer so I'll even let you write the script!!! JUST GET OFF OF MY SHOWWWWWW!!! 😡
15) So, I thought I'd also tell everyone that if you have a younger brother @ home, NEVER tell him about the episode of JJKN which is to air later that night (in the U.S. & U.K. I mean). I made that mistake & THIS is what my DEAR DEMONIC LITTLE SIBLING CAME UP WITH. "Ohhhh, duh, if Armaan gets whacked in the head, they're gonna give him amnesia. So who cares if Jassi's in the hospital with him? That dude's gonna wake up & not know who the heck she is!" 😡😡😡 Upon finishing my beating of HIS head, I watched the show in a bittersweet mood. Don't want to ruin your optimistic moods either, but now that I have this in my head, don't rule it out as a possible option kids. Remember who we're dealing with here. 😔
That's all for tonight. Ket, please give me a HAPPY reason to wake up tomorrow!!! ❤️ Good night dears. 🤗
