Yesterday's epi made me feel sick. I'm not even kidding. I love you, E, I really do!

bee! er... i'm sure there's a connection between the way you started that para and ended it. er... somewhere... 😆

honestly? i thikn the closest i've come to feeling sick ever, watching this show was the dirtchachi publicly humiliating heer, hitting her over and over in front of a passively watching audience -- some of whom were her own family! -- dragging her out in the rain, hitting her over and over some more, and then dumping her into her room like trash.

i've never admitted it before -- but that was when i felt sick. yesterday was no-where close. yesterday was tragi-comic 'cause of the sheer stooopidity of vitchface in having engineered her own little burning act. yesterday, i had my head spinning 'cause i was swinging between feeling the doom in the lj-gayatri-mom sequences (didn't you see gayatri-mom??! that was not gementor anymore -- it was a mother, even if only vitchface's mother...) and the silliness of vitchface.

and yes, that silliness was kinda pitiable 'cause she was soooo flighty .. till the very end. and in a way, i thought she sooo deserved it. not death. not that. but she deserved her little accident - she was that stooopid. till the very end.

i guess what i left the episode with was that sense of doom... a resignation that everything is going to go to hell from now on. that from it being a show where happiness hinged on prem keeping his faith in heer (which was always simple 'cause prem-heer-are-one) to one where nothing is in anyone's control anymore. it's now become sort of like an avalanche -- there's never any stopping one, didja know? i saw some while in nepal -- it was scary.

this story has sorta moved into that zone. and everything will go downhill. only question is where is it going to stop... and i think that will depend upon whether vitchface is actually dead or not.

y'know? i meant to write this up in my wtf... but felt compelled to write all this! just in response to that one statement of yours! man, i am tooo long-winded!

I also don't understand this show's fascination with people getting burnt to death. Is is to torture Prem even more, by making him remember what it was like caught in that fire, and realising that his sister went through that, before dying herself?!

i dunno -- i guess the fire thing (in this case at least) was the most inevitable attempt that vitchface could make ''to get nihaal's sympathy'' (stooopid girl!). but i had forgotten that link to prem!!! you are right -- he is going to freak out!!! man, are these creatives sadistic or what...?

But, for now, this show is dead. I don't see an eternal love story anymore. Although I AM thankful we didn't get any ig-idiot today.

i always see the love story -- maybe that's why i keep watching this show? 🤔 i dunno... i like to know why i keep watching this show.

In a Greek tragedy kinda way. Except written way worse. Because there was no catharsis. Okay yeah I'm not making sense. (See, I knew I shouldn't have brought in the Greek tragedy thing! )

bhav.. 😆 ... it was a good analogy. there was no catharsis, 'cause it is in the nature of hindi tv-serials that the catharsis has to be stretched out over multiple weeks! if not multiple months! 😲

in fact, that I nearly cried seeing her in Nihaal's arms, desperately trying to atone for her actions, trying to tell Nihaal that she does love him. I genuinely felt bad for Veera and Nihaal.

funny, i liked that part -- thought they did it quite well. but there was something about the sheer vitchface-style-silliness of first her conversation with gementor. and then, the way she cooked up (so to speak! 😆) her own fate in the kitchen. her whole body language, the way she was striking and killing those matches -- that was sooooo vitchface. and that's what i remember 'bout her from today...

And then the tragedy with G-mom and Lalit. That horrible irony of his daughter's happiness being infinitely ruined. It was just disgusting, all the tragedy of it.

ya, that was miserable, no? one thing these people are really good at is how to juxtapose happiness in parallel with tragedy, no? like two trains approaching each other on parallel tracks. coming from different directions. but then moving together for a while? and the actors -- dq and sd -- did those segments superbly! brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. miserable for us... but that was brilliant.

But more than anything it was the precap that got to me. I have no idea how I'm gonna be able to watch Monday's episode...

*sigh* given the episode, the precap was .. inevitable, no? i wonder ... lj, gementor, prem, heer are there -- where are the rest of the family? did no one call them?

*sigh* lots more hysterical crying to endure... *sigh!!!*

Hi,

I just don't know what to say. I am thoroughly confused not at where this story is going (it is obvious all this will lead to Prem and Heer separation) but the route it is taking to reach its destination. I thought this whole Sameer and Rajveer thing was done to show Prem doubting Heer and separating. If that was the case then what was the need for killing Veera? What purpose does it serve other than separating Prem and Heer? But then that could have been achieved with the Sameer story also, right? Then what was the need to kill Veera? You know what the most interesting thing is that two people who were the reason that Prem and Heer would split are dead - Veera and Sameer and that too in the same week!! What a strange coincidence?? So does it mean that either Gaya3 or Maya will also join these two?

E, *bone-crushing hug* I wrote that when I was sort of miserable, so it may not have made any sense. Anyway, the connection is, that yesterday's epi I felt sick, but I didn't even WATCH the darned epi. I just got sick from reading the highlights. At the actual epi, and then thinking about what this death is going to mean for the rest of the people in the Juneja family. Anyway, your bt,lt just put me in a good mood. That's the connection from the beginning of the para to the end.

Btw, I know the reason I still bother reading the updates to the show. because of the fabulous actors. I'm never watching a bt show again, unless they have hc-ag as the leads. hc-ag really deserve a set of better creatives.
