y'know? at the end of two weeks of exam-stress; at the stop of wfp at 42 days; at the end of writing more posts in one day than i think i've ever done before; i'm feeling pensive. yesterday, i was on a high. today, i'm feeling kinda blue. i wonder if in the mindnumbing euphoria of 17 dec, i've missed out on what's in the story. that we are all too much on the same page and not seeing the full picture? 'cause there are many holes, no? or does nothing really matter other than that prem's back? 😆 lemme see...
* i miss vibha. *weren't expecting that, were you?* vibha (vibha23) used to write the most scathing opinions on every episode. and i didn't need to agree with everything she said. but she did challenge what i thought i was seeing and forced me to think carefully 'bout it. this morning, i found myself wondering what vibhs would've thought of 17 dec... i wish i could find out. 🤔
* what exactly is the worm in ratpal's gullet? we don't really know who he is after -- prem? lalit juneja? the entire family?
* is dheer still somewhere in the juneja house? surely, dirtchachi is not giving him menial jobs to do -- has everyone discovered that he is ratpal's brother or not?
* what happened to dirtchachi's sister kooky? how can she have just given up and vanished as soon as her sister got control of the house? and where is dirtchachi's husband?
* if preet is working, is dirtchachi getting his money? how does dirtchachi have the money to pay for the servants and to buy her groceries? is ratpal paying her a stipend? *told you i was feeling morose and blue... i want to know such details!*
* is nihaal still working at prem's hotel? actually, who is running prem's hotel? is it ratpal's now? i thought that he was just threatening heer that he would buy it out?
* why did prem not appear to care about "the girl he had rescued in the middle of the night"? i just thought that (a) ratpal had dragged heer out of the camp while she was still unconscious and that (b) at the time, prem was ... washing his face or something and missed it. 'cause if ratpal dragged her out and prem tried to stop him and ratpal would've seen him. kodiyon-pal would've seen him and would've recognised prem when he came to the gates of the engagement party venue. so prem missed ratpal dragging heer out of the tent.
* how sweet that heer carried her payal with her to pushkar. that means she used to carry it with her everywhere? how sweet. 😍
* earlier, when heer was in deep trouble, she would pray to her maa-papa-ji. now she talks to prem... 😍
* did prem end up at the engagement venue because the kachcha rasta led to the pakka raasta which ultimately led there? d'you think he's gonna get a room there? d'you think that they'll offer him staying place if he works to serve drinks to the people for the night? d'you think he's gonna return the little bag to kodiyon-pal who will tell him to keep it? 😆
* most beautiful thing that i haven't yet talked about or seen any one mention - the montage of the show has changed!! omg, what a beautiful montage! prem comesin, his eyelashes drape downward to glance at heer's hands before taking them in his! what i can't help laughing at is how hc looks like he is trying to suppress the biggest grin on earth at heer. while ag is more in character as heer, with her demure smile with an up-through-the-eyelashes look at prem. 😆 but what a beauty of a title montage... 😍 it has the failure of ravan written all over it.. 😍
* delicious weekend question (dwq? 😆) so exactly how is heer gonna make prem "remember"? 😆
* just to make sure we know who's who and who's left:
juneja side: lalit juneja, gayatri mom, preet, meher, prem, heer
dirtchachi side: dirtchachi, ashlesha, ash-father (?), kooky (?)
ratpal side: ratpal, ratmom-pal, satpal, kodiyonpal (the kodiyon prediction guy), dheerpal (?), stoopid-pal (? that idiotic woman who ratpal used to insult but she would still go out with him)
other random bad guy side: vishakha, prashant, preeto, madmeet, related parents (all ?)
random entities: mad spinning lady
other non entities: nihaal, vitchface, harman, maya, maya-dad, beeji/daijan (?), kuldi, kuldi-husband
anyone else?
so many questions the show has to answer. i hope that we are gonna get as much prem-heer as we got heer for the last two weeks... w&w**
