1. Main Raashi tere angan ki - Ouch!My heart went out to Raashi today.There are two ways to handle injustice to you.One-Actively fight it and get the offenders to come fall at your feet or smile,swallow your tears and forgive and forget.The latter requires great strength of character,courage and a great magnanimous heart and a selfless mind and is worthy of admiration.all my admiration for Raashi!You go girl!Not an easy job to hug and forgive somebody whom you considered your best friend but turned out to be a back stabber.And what's more actually and genuinely wish for her happiness.It was touching to see the two girls clasp their hands and Rano's pressing raashi's hands and begging for her forgiveness proved she was truly sorry for what she had done.The heart-wrenching bg music as Raashi says amidst tears that what hurts her the most id the insensitivity of her own family towards her likes and dislikes adds to the pathos and makes Raashi's grief all the more terrible.Raashi angel I won't call you 'poor' and sympathize with you because I know that goodness pays big time.It is sad that like Bani you have to spend the first few months of your married life in sudharing your crack husband but it will be worth it.She says theya re now sister-in-laws but will always remain sisters.Chalo these two have each other at least.Interesting though.I would have liked Jiggu Kitty to have been present.Raashi's selflessness and purity of heart rendered her the most beautiful of women today.Both the ladies looked gorgeous especially Rano.Gosh!The peacock blues suited them admirably.
2. The stalker - The camera zooms on those large heavily kohled watching eyes and then on the face- Ouch! Amma! RUN RUN RUN!Bani truly looked like Maha Kali in the deep Red Sari and her coloured pebble Jewellery collection.Amma remembers the previous day's conversation with Sandy Bhalu and Papa Cobra comes to her mind.I was rolling on the floor as her eyes closely followed PaCo's every movement.Pa Co BTW looked resplendent in a lovely double colored Sherwani and having the time of his life,grinning with Jiggu and his guests unaware of what fate had in store for him!Rano's mehandi's goin on and Anu's happily filling Rano's hands with Mehandi.Raashi darling smiles at Rano but her grief is obvious.Amma looks like she is attending a funeral.Not yet dear.Abhi uske liye waqt hai.Munna abhi Pune se aya nahin hai!The two third rates stare at each other happily,theer's a ring-aring-a-roses going on and Gosh!Swamiji too is dancing in crimson?Wah Mamiji and bhathije match match?But they didn't show his face.But looked like Sid was enjoying the whole thing.Everyone's happy and indulgent except Mamiji and Raashi.We know why Raashi is unhappy but Mami?You seriously think she is missing Jai?NahShe is pre-occupied with- You guessed it!Her new soutan;Papa Cobra!Papa Cobra,lagtha hai apke khndlime shani aur mangal ek saath hain!
3. Hum tum ek kamre me bandh ho - PapaCobra goes in to a room to talk business with somebody,standing in front of the mirror.Amma just cannot take this any longer!Enough is enough!Her eyes flashing,clothes rustling,she sweeps in to the room and the door shuts by itself startling the hell out of papa Cobra.The way she entered the room and put herself in front of Nagu,I thought she was going to rape him!I think Nagu thought the same.He asks in a dheemily scared and doubtful voice "Aap?" "Mr.Chopra main apse kuch baat karma chahthi hoon." "Batayiye?"That's more than enough invitation and Bani MahaKali Attacks Nagu about 29th.Nagu was half scred,half petrified half wondering if she's lost it or maybe she needs a bhoot utharu chudail?Bani continues behaving like Nagu's in Police custody and she is theinterrogating officer,the echos and the bg-it looked like Papa Cobra was petrified but I think far from it.He was initially taken aback but while bani was hounding him,his mind was furiously working overtime and at last he pretends to blurt out that the victim was his wife and it was only an accident.He goes away,looking rattled and shocked at having had to relive the painful moment.I am not taken in Nagu.I think you are a cursed liar and an actor of the first class.I don't believe a selfish creature like him can think about others at all.He was not doing Jai any favour.I think he was saving his own skin.Now my suspicions against Papa Cobra are only increasing.I think this oily fella has a much greater hand in this nasty business than either Munna or Cobra can imagine.For a split second,I almost thought Bani is his daughter!That would be interesting.Maybe Kiran and him-she was black-mailing him but when the accident occurred,PaCosnatched the opportunity and murdered Kiran and shifted the blame onJai and his sister and pretended he was bailing them out!But this scene was hilarious and PaCo just rocked!But if this the way Amma is going to be behaving,god be with me munna!
4. Mera piya ghar aya O Ramji -Amma comes in after her grueling session with PaCo and immediately Jiggu glares at her and moves out of the room.Anu looks uncomfortable but both she and Raashi persuade her to dance for their wedding.She agrees.Hai eesh!I would rather munna sang.I want to see Jiggu's reactions to his song!These days the less I see of amma the better!I love the intimacy Bania nd Anu share.The way she puts her arms around her and tells her with a huge mischievous smile that there's a good news that mama is back and in his room.Amma can only blink.
5. Saananriya saanwaniya main tho huyi bhawariya,tune man moh liya - Nah Amma doesn't sing that for her pati Parmeshwar.I sing that for my munna!Gosh!Gosh!My munna's back!That blessed face,that honey honey voice,that angelic lips Gosh!All is forgiven angel!You may be a murderer or an escapist but you are back-kaleje ko thandak pahunchi-I forgive you unconditionally!My world begins and ends with you-where heaven meets I find you and kiss you too;kasamh se!Don't you think KS felt so khali khali without him?That massive bulk on the bed,fiddling with files that authoritative vice demanding coffee from Tony-M TONY!Where are you son?Tony ko bulaya tho Amma comes in with a mug of coffee.Whatw as written on the mug BTW?And munna's reaction disappointed me.I wish he had sulked or avoided her but he behaved like it was just any other day?Strange!He had accused her of being partial to her sister and she had confronted him about the murder that he is supposed to have commited!And yet they have nothing to say on this matter?He tells her he had asked Tony for coffee and not her.Ah son,don't you know her present pastime is to do proxy for others and corner and scare the skin ofeverybody?She asks him blankly why he went to Pune?Munna immediately looks down guiltily.Awwwwwww my munna's face is his mind's mirror.That face can hide nothing.So,me munna actually rana way from his wife?After what she did to Papa Cobra,I think munna was a very wise guy to run away.Munna's expression is worth watching when she tells him she knows all about 29th June.Munna is too stunned to react but gets up from the bed with a jolt on hearing her saying she knows it was only an accident and he cannot be blamed and she knows he can never harm anybody!Pay carefull attention to munna's facial expressions.As Amma goes on asking his forgiveness he has this look'Has she gone mental?She really thinks I am not to blame?'It was a super scene.Bani guilty and munan(Hai,looking so hot) wondering if he should be more shocked or surprised or worried at bani's unexpected reaction and the lightning that appears for a split second indicating munna's shock and the bg-a great scene-well shot.
6. Ulta chor kotwl ko daante - The moment Bnai mentions Pap Cobra's name,munna gets ready to become his usual bull dog avtar.She goes out and he immediately snatches the phone and blasts Runvijay.I just love this.Papa Cobra ne aaj kiska chehra dekhke utha tha?Biwi was molesting him and miya is barsaing fireworks on him!But he calmy tells Jai that he had only lied and it is now up tp hom to keep Bani away from the truth.Just look at the way Jai's ind works..He should be mighty grateful to PaCO but utters not even a thank you.His mind immediately shifts to his pretty wife.He stares out and hopes to keep the lie alive in Bani's mind.I think Ram did a fabulous job.As he tells himself that he will never let Bani get near the truth,you see a defeated hopeless man;one incident and today his life is a living hell.That one expression conveys all his misery,his helplessness-brilliant!And he just looked simply mind-blowing-when he's in a retrospective mood,his eyes actually shine like blue carbuncles-gosh!Thse eyes-they convey a million things.I wish he was a tin of blue distemper so I could use him on me walls and munna would peep at me from every pore of the wall!Gosh!His face was lean,looked like he was eaten with worry and there was kind of a sheen on his nose-pay attention to when he bends his eyes when Bani asks him why he ran away to Pune-he just rocked!Swamiji,Sahil are great looking too but this man is something different.He is so classy-he becomes the mood,the situation and there is something magical about this man.And everytime Bani's with him,they exude magic.But I'm not sure I like this new Bani very much.Look at the way she now speaks to her husband.It is no longer the 'bechari' type.There is confidence,authority and why there's also the feeling that she ahs a right over her husband and his welfare!I love it that she has grown a spine but I am not sure I approve of her going and haunting every Tom ,Dick and Harry about a cursed raaz.Gosh Eesh please take care of my munna.I hope she doesn't manhandle him after the raaz is out.
7. Maa - Can a simple sorry erase all hurt and wipe away your sins?Rano begs her sister's forgiveness and says many pretty things but if the wedding had happened,Jiggu would have just pickled Bani alive.Both Pia and Rano keep saying theya re sorry their sister has had to endure their share of sorrow too but isse kya hota hai?Sufferer tho hamesha Bani hi huyi na?Bani,our very own Mother Teresa smiles her forgiveness and wishes her sisters live happily ever after with their husbands but of course her longing for the same is obvious in her voice.Rano feels it,confronts her about it and Bani says very philosophically that love cannot be bought.Well said honey.So maybe Rano will let munna know how much her sister loves him?I hope so.It was very touching when Rano sais that Bani is the only nath after their mom's death.Their mother still lives on in Bani.That was just beautiful!And how true.But don't worry Rano.Bani is not anath.Munna hai na.After the raaz,my poor munna will become anath.Maybe I can take him in?This scene was beautiful like the first scene with Rano and Raashi.We Indians are very emotional people and Ekta knows that this is the USP of her shows so she exploits this to her best advantage.You know how to touch and hook us Ekta.So hopefully you won't mess around with JB.I wish munna ahd been stealthily listening on this conversation.But I guess hereafter,both munna and Papa Cobra would rather go to pathalbhumi than be in the same room with Amma!
8. She yells like a child but she's always a woman to me - Hear the noise of empty vessels? that's our Jiggu bossing about the servants and boasting about how grand her childrens' wedding is going to be!Teherja Jiggu,abhi tumhari baari baaki hai!Just you wait till you rub on the wrong side of the Yamarani of the Walia house!She is all hassles and gives a dressing down to a speechless aditya about his dressing sense and I loved the way she blasted the designer"There is nothing good about this morning!"Ashwini rocks.Like Ram,she just gets in to her character and infuses life and air in to it.I guess they tried for a comedy here as Ashwini dismisses the weird Black suit Aditya was going to wear forthe wedding.Not as comical or as touchingly funny as a similar JB scene-"Tum bhi na" "Aap bhi na".JB are a class apart.But it was nice to see different aspects of these two.See a person cannot be full black or white.Jiggu is mean,dirty and vicicious but she is a woman,a wife, a mother.Very thoughtful of them to show us her tender side too.Aditya just rocked,today too.Thisone's a good actor too.First the disbelief and then happness that today his wife,the mother of his children was with him.He is so right.Parents cannever stay from each other though a man and a woman or a wife and a husband may.Is this a hint that chhota munna is on is way and that he will get his parents back together?I cannot wait!Jiggu's nodding her head in acknowledgement was well done.But hey Jiggy looked so young tioday.It is criminal that they have made her mother of three grown up children.Gosh!So funny to imagine AJ too must have had a June 19th in their lives!Gosh!
9. Three weddings and a funeral - D-day is come.Or should I say crisis day.Ouch!The raaz will be out today.My poor munna.They show the three brides getting ready and it was here that I understood why they say that beti maa ki parchaayi hoti hai.A daughter carries not only herself but a part of her mom or whoever is responsible for her upbringing.It may not be obvious at the first go,indeed there's a vast difference between Jiggu and Anu,between Cobra and Raashi and bwteen Bani and Rano yet there is a dil ka rishtha betweeneach of the pair that just cannot be explained or equaled.Jiggu dresses up Anu in the colour of Red.The sleeveless blouse didn't suit her though the red did wonders to her complexion.Jiggu was-heavens!What coloured eye-shadow is that?It was lovely to see mom and daughter hugging each other and the bg music was very befitting and touching.Gosh!When the raaz is out,how many funerals will we have?
10. Mughl-e-azam - Bani is dressing up her dear sister.What happened to their other sister jo apna brains kahin pawn karke aayi hai?Wow!Rano looked so beautiful,so pretty in the yellow dulhan ka jhoda.I think she will make an awesome Mughal princess.Maybe we can have our own KS mughal-e-azam.Sahil-Shahjehan,Rano-anarkali,Munna-Jahampana Gosh!Munna will make a fine Akbar,na?Bani will be a new addition of mine-TheRudrakali who will basically make startling appearances and scare the hell out of everybodyand incidentally the only person whom the great Akbar is scared of.Ma Tony will be the ghulam of munna!!Rano looks like a picture.Sahil,boss teri tho nikal padi.Enjoy!Of the three brides,Rano looked the prettiest.Picture perfect. Bani looked pretty in yellow.But Rano just stole the show.
11. Itna kyun muskura rahi ho,kya gum hai jisko chupa rahi ho - Ouch Raashi!Cobra-looks pretty in a light Orange Sari but honey what sre you grinning about?Ruk ruk tere bhaiyya ka tho ho gaya.Abhi tujhe Amma ka dose milna baki hai!~Tab batana!Prrrr,Cobra why are you dressing Raashi like a ichchadhari snake?As Cobra is grinning and talking and dressing up Raashi,the dear angel smiles back,Cobra ka dil rakhne ke liye but a tear trickles down her right cheek.Ouch!Dear dear,apn moti ko sambhal ke rakh Raashi,Swamiji is just right for you and vice-versa.Give some time and see he is mamaji number two in the making.All those who wanted Raashi to be replaced must watch today's episode.This actress playing Raashi just rocked.She has done full justice to Raashi's character.I hope she too in due course learns to speak out her mind but hope she doesn't take to stalking and haunting people like her Bani amma.
12. Ye vada raha – Cobra understands Raashi's pain and the smile freezes on her face and Cobra's face isoverlapped with Rano being dressed up by Bani.Foreboding,haan?Cobra sees Bani and Rano happily in their own world and she does that silly flick with her haie and promises doom will befall Bani shortly and all her happiness will be driven away in no time.Ha!Ma Orange Cobra,come my love come let's go for a turn.Let's turn back the hands of time and go back to 19th june 06.Kuch yaad aya?My love all your plans w.r.t separating JB is meant to backfire;that's the fact of life.So go ahead nutty,spill out the raaz.You are doing my munna a great favour.Go ahead spill the raaz.My sweet fatso dumbo needs a huge shock to get his true feelings out.I think Bani getting to know of the raaz is the only way the duffer will realize what bani means to him.And you Cobra pehle apne andhar tho jhaank.Raashi is hurt more than ever because you,who claim to love her dearly didn't ask her even once about her preferences.Walias tho paraye hain.Lekin Tu?Stop blaming and targeting the Dixit sisters.And anyway revenge for what you cockroach brained?Swamiji is not a punishment for heaven's sake.Had a good look at him?

Raaga's grievance

Golden shoe awarded to
Raashi! You rock!👏👏
Raaga's secret urge -
Gosh!I so wanted munna and Amma in that touching scene between Jiggu and Adi.So cool to see munna and Amma with their three grown up children and they getting nostalgic about their yester yesars together.Wow!Wonder how Amma will look with grey hairs.😛
Today's lesson learnt -
Sudden shock treatment!Want the truth out of somebody who belongs to the opposite gender?Lock yourself up with him in the same room and hound him with questions,giving him no reaction or thought time,till he is ready to tear his hairs and has no option but to answer you.Note:No use with super crooks like Cobra!
Answer to yesterday's teaser
Swamiji and Raashi will go to Baba Ajmeriji's ashram,for their honeymoon!Vaaz was the closest.Congrats dear.Enjoy your gift-flying kiss from munna!👏
Today's teaser
What is Papa Cobra's secret urge?😉
Raaga's last words -
Thank the lord me munna's back!So much happened yesterday.And much more will happen today.I am dying to see Swamiji as the dulha but even more impatient to see how his relationship with Raashi will be.We hardly know about this man's RQ(Romance quotient) and hwo he feels about women.He loves his family and is aware of his responsibilities but where does he stand w.r.t women?I think he will treat Raashi like a piece of furniture-not acknowledging her presence at all but she will soon become a necessary part of furniture and hopefully will become mamaji number 2.I think Raashi can open her mouth and speak up when she chooses to.Like the former Bani,she is keeping her mouth shut because she is too decent and too selfless to stand up for her rights.I am waiting to see her stand up to Jiggy and see Swamiji lick her feet.Comig to the raaz,hmmm.I think what will hurt Bani the most is that the truth came to her from somewhere else and not her husband's mouth.We should also take in to account that it is going to be Cobra who will spill the beans.So Bani maybe fed an exaggeration rather than the exact truth.Add to that munna's escapism and his guilty behaviour.I am wondering if the truth will become known only to Bnai or the whole crowd?I hope it's the former.I think unfortunately for munna and us,his confession will follow after Bani confronts him with the raaz.So she will think that it is his way to keep her under his thumb!Ouch munna! .I am also hoping that there is more to the raaz than meets the eys.For one,the white gloves-who is he?What does he want?Wheer did he disappear to?Hispresence suggest that this is not a simple affair and hopefully munna is only a scapegoat.It is certain now that the victim wasBani's mother.I hope our super sleuth unearths the real thing and our hero gets redeemed,first of all in his on eyes.My poor darling,he has been living in hell for seven punishing years! .I think we can expect a good news soon maybe that will keep Bani in the Waliahousehold.It will be interesting to see Rano and Jiggu as bahu and saas.And the Raashi-Rano-Jigyasa connection.But I am most interested in the Raashi-Swamiji connection.I don't have much expectations from the raaz but I am sure we can expect awesome performances from Ram and Prachi!Cannot wait.So, today the anti-husband duo will dance to'Tu mera kaun lage?'Hohoho.Ek tho jail pahunch gaya.Doosra bakra use join karne taiyyar ho raha hai!Talk about woman power!Yesterday's episode was great especially Amma PaCo encounter and of course my hot ravishing munna!But why do his lips have that strange colour like he has applied black lip-stick?😕I think today's epsode will be good too.Though I am sure they will leave the raaz dangling for Monday.Shucks!Anyway,I am fully prepared with drinks and eatables and I am definitely not complaining.😛
God be with me munna.Have a great day loves.
