y'know what really made me thrilled 'bout wednesday? i finally got the sense that the guy who was hopping all over the screen with prem's face on is actually prem. *phew!
quite frankly, that's what has bothered me most 'bout this guy -- he was such an anti-prem character that i could never shake off the possibility that he was actually not prem. *shamefaced muh* oh, i know that all the signs were that he's prem. but my mean cousins from singapore kept telling me that there was a really famous movie which had two guys with the same face, who ended up loving the same girl, but were two different guys! they were especially mean in assuring me that balaji telefilms really likes copying stories out of movies. so man, was i happy with wednesday.
'cause now we are free to think 'bout whether he has ml or doesn't... and at some basic level? i really don't care.. 😆 'cause all that i care 'bout is that prem-heer-are-on and not someone-with-prem's-face-heer-are-one. that would have been too much to bear.
'bout the ml vs. not story, there's lots of obvious evidence that he has ml. but there are all these under the consciousness things that he doesn't. that he knows who he is. that he is doing this for a reason. well, said this before, saying it again. me? i'd like to think that he doesn't have ml -- 'cause i think that hc and ag would totally totally totally rock the scene where prem finally tells heer that he's her prem. seriously. ☺️ somehow i think it will be .. um .. less enchanting if prem's seriously got ml. *note: i didn't say un-enchanting. i said less enchanting. 😆*... hmmmm.... 😍 ... so khushi, nans? with you on prem's-faking-ml
* little thing: i see that hip-hop's still to learn how tenacious our heer is 'bout her prem.
what?? did he really think that just 'cause he sped off and she started walking in the opposite direction the last time, she wouldn't know where he would land up? doesn't he know that she carrries gps trackers in the pockets of her salwar? that she managed to stick one on to his t-shirt while hugging him? and she would eventually land up where he was using the little gps tracking unit in her chain? huh. poor idiot. his hip-hopping, drinking, bunny-dancing, hyper-days are soooooo over! 🤣
* little thing: but, oh no! they had her sing again - in the same place, the same song, to the same guy - except that he is not the same guy, sorta.. i had thought that the first edition of this scene was heartbreaking. but at least, there heer was soooo happy - she was oblivious to everything 'cause she was singing for her prem.
but this time? this time, the guy walked up to her, apologised for not being prem. insulted her by accusing her of cheating on her fiance. called up ratpal (!!!) and finally found a way to shut heer up. 😭 somehow, even seeing that little flashback added nothing of a hope or a good feeling 'bout this scene. except for... omg. his face when she does walk away, defeated and sad. was that the face of ultimate apology? it was - once again - another touch of that prem in a crazy night.
edit adding the cap of that face 'cause i just found khushi's caps for 29 jan 😆
first he does that! and then...
edit end
* little thing: um... how does his hip-hopiness have ratpal's number on his phone???!!!!! hmmmmmm!
* little thing: sad heer. sooo sad the way that she took his phone when he called ratty up and said she would leave. if only she'd turned back to see his face just once. but when heer does something, i guess she does it right. she either hangs on tight. or she leaves - only to marshall forces for the next attack, of course. but still. so sad to see that determination falter.
* heer thing: did anyone else realise that she has run from ratty's house after prem's car. and then walked all the way to the bar. and then probably (since this is fleet-footed heer 😆) walked all the way back to juneja house??? phew! that's quite some exercise. no wonder she is far slimmer than meher - preet never makes meher run after him like this! 😆
* little thing: somehow, i was not moved by the whole juneja's wrapping up prem's memories segment. what i did love was seeing what these people looked like a year ago... am i getting to be a hard-hearted person? i loved most seeing one of my favourite prem-preet moments - "bauji loves harman bhai, mom loves you. nobody loves me." preet looking like a raw kid compared to what he is now. "main hoon na. i love you." that funny old prem... *sigh* that i loved most....
* little thing: um... who else thought that heer was just a bit too high-strung last night? either ag's going through sadness-fatigue by this point, and can't do much more to nuance her voice while pleading with the family to believe her. or ... well, i am going through heer-sadness-fatigue and just don't want to see her cry anymore! man, i am sooo ready to see heer take sadness head on without tears and high-pitched pleas from now on!
* big thing: omg. just when heer is about to lose hope, ram's brother lakshman speaks for his bhabhi! omg! was it any surprise that she looked shocked? after all, she is pushed away by meher out of a hug! *poor heer, is not just her day for hugs, i guess. *
despite his father - who is a beloved father now! - looking at him askance, preet is resolute on what he believes and what he wants to say. the way he calls her the respectful "bhabhi". the way he tells her in front of anyone else that he knows she has been doing drama to alienate them. which he doesn't believe 'cause "prem sab say zyaada heer mein samaa hai." 😍 and that he will go with her to find out the truth 'cause he knows she knew what pb was to this family.
oh, everyline rocked - what he said, how he said it. what i really want to see is with what face meher looked at her sister and her husband after what he said.
* preet priest thing: so, 'kay, this is an official announcement by the priest of the religion of preet. everyone - whether you are disciples of preet or not - is commanded to come and prostrate yourselves at the temple of preet! is this guy real? he can't be real and mortal. he's a god. all fall down at his feet!!!! close your eyes and meditate on him. and find peace and love and smiles in your soul forever. *sigh!!!*
y'know? i figured out something 'bout preet that was not so well-thought out in my head before. what i love 'bout preet is that he is brutally honest - with himself and everyone else. and unlike prem and his heer, who are other-worldly, out-of-time creatures, preet is of the earth, and of this time. and he is honest. and that got driven home strongly tonight. in total contrast with prem whose style was always giving, never taking - after all, he just knew all his life that he was going to get his heer, who would give him everything that his soul did and would ever desire. preet is very straightforward and in your face. and he never bullpoops you. when lalit juneja was an irritant, he was the only guy to irritate him right back. when dirtchachi cast aspersions on gayatri-mom's love for prem in that party, he was the only guy to challenge her and tell her to shut up. given that his feelings for ashlesha went from bhabhi to pal to ...?, i loved how he used to call her "yaar". just as today he calls his best-friend-wife the same. preet has always been honest.
and best of all, he does that while being real. he has always been. he has always been most like us - he cares about what we care 'bout. he does what we want to be done. and he is the loveliest character for all those reasons in this show. preet adds a new dimension to watch for in this story. quite incredible, donchya think, in a prem-heer-are-one story where it is prem-heer who will always have our hearts. and preet manages to find a corner where he can burrow, safe and secure.
um... guys? you can all get up from god's feet now. collect your prasad below before you leave? 😆 here...
*what??? yes, this is the prasad! isn't that smile sweeter than any sweet? anyway, sweets are bad for your teeth. and how can you have bad teeth if you have paid respects to preet, god of smiles?*
* little thing: ooooh, can you wait for monday now???? that was such a mean place to stop the show! that ending was almost as good as the way that smitha (sshekar) ends a chapter of her ffic destiny!!! *yeah, she is very mean in how, where and when she stops.... 😆*
w&w. w&w. w&w. in case, anyone doesn't know. that stands for "waiting & watching", copyrights to smitha (sshekar).
highlight of the episode: preet saying that prem sab say zyaada heer mein samaa hai. 😍 prem's face as heer walks away - defeated - from him. *thinking* the sight of all of you prostrate at the temple of preet. yeah, sights like that gladden my priestly heart..... 😆

as heer leaves, all sad and given-up...
oh dear.
oh dear,
oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
i oh-so-very sadly fear
that no matter how hateful,
how shameful,
how dreadful his behaviour to his beloved heer
may now appear
when prem finally kneels before her, his sins to confess,
not asking, not begging, not expecting forgiveness,
and heer will answer with a fiery kiss.
i will forgive and forget, in happy bliss.
