* prem thing: actually, that should be prem
things. lots of little little sweet, amazing prem things.
only prem can do such things naa?😍😍
he not only held his hand out silently for heer to come take the first dance with him.
but then! even without heer coming to him, he stalked over to her. i mean! what
is with this guy for doing the unexpected? or, it being heer, was it the expected?? 😍
with heer...prem is just prem...without any inhibitions...its as if the world ceases to exist for them wen they are together😍😍
and once he is there, he pushed even further. it was he who took her by her arm, forcibly turning her to face him, pulling her closer.
and of course, my brain was melting by then. but i did wonder -- what the devil are gi-it and gi-it glob doing, watching this??!
or maybe, given the sheer inevitability with which he did all this, maybe there was just no way to say anything at all?
i mean. what can you say when the bridegroom-to-be does this stuff -- to someone other than the girl he was to be engaged to??
me? i'd have pulled the parents of the groom-to-be aside -- and asked some damned hard questions, in a heartbeat!
but this? this is jzoo. where the unnatural becomes the natural. 'cause all forces finally have to bow down and bend to the ultimate force: prem-heer-are-one. 😃
* heer thing: not a protest. not a whisper. not even a facial twitch of disapproval. it was acceptance, acceptance, acceptance all the way.
like this was something she had to do. she welcomed.
funny thing? she didn't at all have an air of this being her final dance with prem, no? 😍
* prem-heer thing: oh dear. actually, i don't know why i bother trying to write out what was incredible about this their ''last dance''. 'cause it was all felt.
the feeling of them. the sheer comfort they have when they are together.
i had to keep fighting to tell myself that they haven't done this for six years! that they haven't touched like this -- in love, and acceptance -- for six long years.
and i want to know from anyone who can tell me: even after six years of not having been physically with each other, when you finally get back together -- is it truly like nothing has ever changed? is the touch just that familiar? is it?? 😕 i want to know...
oki estee....i can tell.....its not six yrs....i guess even 6 days of not having been physically with each other, when you finally get back together ...with the person whom u love deeply.......the familiarity of the touch is the same.....but....the effect...its different......😍
the only thing that reminded me that it's been a while for these two is in how every little moment was played out, prolonged, savoured.
😍😍😍
'cause man! was he taking his time just getting into ''position'' for the dance, no??
first the left hand. when he took her hand, fingers playing delicately over her hand as if to touch every inch of skin, savour it slowly. prolonging that first touch till he finally takes her hand in his, for the dance.
then the right hand. slip-sliding, surely and smoothly round her waist. pulling her in, until she was so close that his eyes could speak into her eyes; his breath could be felt against the skin of her cheek. i loved the smoothness of how they just got together for the dance.
and i loved how she responded to each of his leads. her eyes followed his hand wrapping those fingers around hers. unbidden, unknown, instinctively, her left hand was gliding over his arm, his upper arm, his shoulder to curl and rest (as it always does in a dance) palm behind, fingers draped round his shoulder.
by the time they were done, i really didn't have any brain left. 😆
but i did dimly wonder how much space there was between them to allow them the freedom to move in that dance. but they seemed to manage fine. 😆
that dance ... *sigh* that dance should've continued through out this episode. the next episode. and maybe even forever. i could watch them in that dance forev... er.. a long time, i think. 😆
😍we all think.......😆
* prem-heer thing: remember the last time that prem asked heer how she could make a decision for him without asking him first?
(in apparently a pbauji dream 😆) heer had died at the ajmer storm. prem asked (an apparently dead) heer: how could you? how could you take my right away from me?? one of the singularly most powerful performances that i've ever seen. ever. i remember watching it with a hindi-serial cynic -- and she was silenced during that scene...
and now? now, they ...
what i loved about this conversation was the quiet of it.
i have always loved prem-heer emotional conversations, just 'cause of the way their voices used to say dramatic emotional dialogue, y'know? they rarely raise their voices. instead, there always is pitch and timbre to highlight the nuances in the drama; subtle dips and rises, rather than snarls or screams, which is enough.
this one too was one such conversation. all the drama was in the words. and the way that their eyes spoke the fire and the passion.
and watching them, hearing those awful voices, and yet getting hit by the power of prem-heer-are-one, i marvelled at these two once again.
it was so clear how much they love each other. yet there they stood, moving against each other, so close that their whispers could be heard only to the other. both of them accepting what was going to happen. an alliance that heer had set up for prem. where she is willingly giving him away. he knew it. she knews that he knew it. and yet -- there was no sense of any struggle, no?
it was like watching age-old adversaries/lovers, standing in the center of a battlefield of love, watching each other when all others around them have fallen. watching to see what would happen next.
i loved that dance for so many things. not the least of it that there was a sense of eternity etched in that prem-heer-are-one-ness. that things can happen. or not. people can come. and go. but that they will persevere...
*sigh* that doesn't sound too much like i hate prem and heer, no? *retreating to work on my pitch, my timbre, my dips, my rises. 'cause i do hate 'em, y'know?😍 *
* prem thing: he'd already been such a quiet lion all through this episode. i figured i couldn't get any more touched by him today.
but i was wrong. his mother -- who he no longer considers his mother -- his ex-god literally pushed heer out of his arms. but he? he refused to let go! prem!!! 😍 i swear, i was seriously cringing watching as glob shouldered heer away -- but prem's hand yanked heer back. 😍to tell her fiercely with his eyes: heer, i love you. i love you, damnit! i love you!
*sigh* why did heer's eyes just answer him back with so much sorrow that it made me want to cry? why did she not tell him that as fiercely back?? why?
* pheyeooh thing: from the moment that she turned away from him at the dance, hurt in her eyes at glob's words, there was s'thing desperate about the way prem was looking at heer that tore at my heart.
there was ... disbelief? certainly a plea not to let whatever was happening, happen.
that look was more powerful than the lines prem thought to himself during the ring-swapping ceremony. whatever he said later, prem's eyes had already said to heer, as he held gi-it at arm's length.
funny, no? watching him, it was as if prem's body was with gi-it. but his mind, heart, soul? in that moment it was standing in front of heer. the way he was with her during the dance.
it was as if for prem, his dance with heer had not finished.... prem! *fiercely reining myself in from fiercely hugging him. fiercely telling myself that i hate prem. i do.*
maybe it helped that heer was right there with him as well. she may have been shoved out of prem's arms by that evil globular mass of glob. but i guess there was an invisible web that prem spun in that last phhandooh which kept her by his side. as if she was still dancing with him, blind and deaf to the rest of the world around her. other than for ... prem. *sigh*
y'know? one thing that prem has always done has been to focus-and-lock into heer the moment she appeared. it looks like now heer is doing that too.
* prem heer thing: if there was one thing that was most incredible 'bout this dance, it was that it showed how their silences are so much louder than their words. ever.
watching those hands cling to the very last moment before they wrenched apart. didn't that remind you of when prem told heer ''kyunki mein tumsey pyar karta hoon!!!''. but heer saw the glint of his engagement ring, and those poor clinging hands had to disengage and move apart?
