lana!! π€ how've you been? or is that a stoopid question to ask just at this minute? π
I did get reminded of 19th June with the rain & the towel but otherwise it made a distinctive difference.
no??!! i so got the same sense! *feeling glad i was not the only one* oddly enough, i think it was the way prem was using the white towel to sop off water off heer's face and ... um ... lips that triggered the memory of the episode-that-must-not-be-named.
one of the clearest memories in my poor-perpetual-meltdown-scarred-brain from that episode was the way prem sopped water off his own face -- his nose, his cheeks, but leaving those drenched eyelashes alone -- with that white towel, in that blue-blue light, all the while holding heer's eyes with his own, watching as she couldn't hold his gaze, watching as she dropped her gaze to his lips...
watching prem use that white towel on heer... in exactly the same way.. wiping her cheeks, her nose, leaving her eyes alone. and then her lips... βΊοΈ that was the memory that triggered off the comparison with this moment in my head... βΊοΈπ
The confidence in both of them reflected as much & later when Heer left the envision I was left with was more than sweet & couldn't be put into words here in PG - 13 format, which left me in a pile of goop, maybe after effect of some one's gooey gooey eyes at his ''amore mia''!! π
πππ..... *gee, we seriously need a goop emo, don't we?? π*
And I wil also agree with u when I say I want to see these two errrrr, kiss! I heard there r some other serials which shows & indicates much more & I am pretty sure their chemistry compared to these 2 would be well, nil, so if they can enact something then why can't these 2???
tell me 'bout that! and are you sure other serials have done it??? i get this strange sense that serials, movies, shows will show everything -- even the whole darn act of .. um .. *darnit! what's the pg-13 word for phekph? π* -- before they will show anyone kiphphing? what shows had people kiphph!? if someone's already done it, i'm starting a petition! π
So there u go, my state of mind which went on a vacation after watching the episode & finally had to bring it back to work forcefully. And now after reading this btlt its again threatening me to go to lala land! What will I do??? π
budget for a longer vacation to lala-land???
Oh about my 'twisted pretzel', πππ though I said that but never meant in a meanie way!
π i know, i know! it's me putting the mean in the twist... not you. no worries. it's a total ''you say pot-ay-to, and i say pot-ah-to'' thing... π
And I love Smitha for creating a character like Atul which makes me all dopey & gaga reading about him. The confidence, the authority, the smartness, the expertise he professes just bowls me over & I will take him anyday over any1 other than Prem ofcourse.
hmmph. no, no questioning eyebrows from me. not from me, who hates prem -- and says so loudly on this phorum! π€£ i can't afford to replace that many of my window panes... π to each their own ... er ... twisted pretzel. all i want to do is break yours into two before handing it over to you!! π
Hey forgot to ask u how was ur Nepal trip? Did u spread the religion of smiles over there? Did u do the puja in that wonderful spectacular temple u erected there? Did Dalai Lama accompany u in ur pujas?
oooh, the trip was quite spectacular. it was great being in a new country for that long. the work had quite a bit of drudgery and sadness, as such survey work is wont to be. and no, spreading the religion in the form of these particular (gods) of smiles was not gonna work as far as i could see.
but yes! i did locate the temple spot -- a totally spectacular one! if you have time, drop by the next (after the next! π) wtf -- i think i'll be ready to open the doors by then. π and *sigh* no, no high-profile people at the one and only pooja i got to do. that poor country was spinning into a bit of a political mess about the time that i left... π *sigh*
PS - Another thing I desperately wanted to know how many retakes did that scene take??? U know behind the scenes story!!! Oh why didn't SBS go on the sets on that day??? ****stomping my feet in frustration****
π oh, if i ever started on a list of episodes/scenes that i want to know the answer to this particular question for... it'd be a long estee-post, even for an estee-post! π€£
