Hello Friends,
Synopsis:Just one word "Excellent"! High on content, emotions and has Karan's replying to Kritika's performance of yesterday! Both of them are damn good actors and these two episodes are enough to prove that! Creatives have tackled things extremely well and they have opened doors in the precap which only point to a more interesting track!
Arjun: A Beautiful Character!
Well I have to say this😊...I could understand his viewpoint yesterday and I can realize his feelings today better! He is a common man....you find those around you...he has these shades in him that pull you towards him...I said once on the Cafe "The absence of flaw in beauty is itself a flaw"....and I just love this quote....It reminds me of Arjun...He has flaws but still has this beauty deep down inside him which attracts you towards him...and it could only be Arjun who has the ability of earning back his love with dignity even after he stooped so low in the eyes of his love....He will rise and if the creatives follow the path they are on right now...i have no doubt that he will do so with dignity! well i thought that he alwayss wated to hear her say I LOVE YOU i don't think so he pushed her for sayin all that what she said yesterday ...
Arjun with Arohi:
Its another trait of Arjun's personality...since he has had an insecure childhood he always needs verbal communication...Whether it is asking Arohi to confess, or the confirmation of if she missed him or today when he says "O comeon Arohi...mujhe congratulate nahin karo gi tum"... here i thought he acually wanted to see her if she was k or not but as soon as he sees her he starts his act .....
Someone said at the Adda yesterday (do let me know who it was...I will put up the name) and I would take that further....where Arohi kept Mum...barely talked...Arjun kept talking..blurting out things from left right center everywhere...Why? This was his internal turmoil that was bubbling out of his mouth..he wanted her to scream, to react...In his opinion Arohi was acting all the way...and if one is in the acting mode you overact in situations like this where you are humiliated...just to make a bigger fuss out of it...she could have screamed at him, slapped him, run away, cried, sobbed....questioned holding on to his collar...called him names...Did she do anything like that...No...Why? Cuz her emotions had died...so there was no more room for her to say anything..and it was this SILENCE that haunted Arjun...that gave him the same odd feeling yet once again of something being very wrong!
I asked this question yesterday as to whether he pushed her to the limits or he just could not stop her from saying all that...I get the answer today...He did not push her to limits yesterday...infact he did not expect her to confess her love at that point in time AND in this way (yet again there is a difference in confessing when you are acting)...BUT today he pushed her...he said everything that will make her break the silence...the silence which was deafening for him...But what she does in response only deepens his wounds...her "aur kuch sir" was enough of a scream so loud that it was enough to tore him apart...her tears were as real as the fact that he was alive at that point in time...
The dialogue which starts at "Meri Mom se kehna"...and ends at "aana zaroor ditch mat karna" I can just stand and clap for Arjun👏...what attitude, what punch, excellent performance..... what was that they talk about regarding to elevator...
Arjun with Dad:
This sequence marked the quality of the show! which in my POV today was quite high...The same room...two characters.....about 20 minutes of screen time...you could get bored easily....but no it hooked you to the screen! the dialogues were apt, the execution just perfect....A Father , A Son... Their Broken relationships...it was all there in that room...and we as viewers were part of it....Excellent performance...Both Karan and Satyajeet raised their own benchmarks and gave us another powerful viewing experience! i don' get what kind of father is he can't he see the pain DARD in his son's eyes...
I so wanted to watch Arjun's first reaction once he is alone by himself, post this confession-humiliation sequence and I am grateful the creatives gave us that....
Another trait of his personality..he is expressive...so the first chance he gets he expresses his feelings he does so in the most expressive manner...When you are broken from inside...you tend to do three things...Its natural...I have done the first two so often and even the third one to some extent!
1. You try to distract yourself (Arjun opens the window....does something on the cell phone) well i thought he wanted to call arohi n ask her how she's holding upp wanted to share what he felt
2. You break things around you to symbolize your internal destruction (he breaks his cell phone, the lamp)
3. You physically hurt yourself...as the last resort when neither 1 and 2 give you relief (he drinks excessively, punches on the walls, tables...) he is in love with her so deeply cazz its usually like that u always cover up ur real feelings with ur anger butt deep inside u can't figure out what to do with ur feeling
Arjun is in shock and denial (Thanks Anjana for making us understand and analyze this)..."I am perfectly fine Dad"...I just could not hold back my emotions when he says "main nai kia tora hai Dad"...yet again symbolic but so apparent...his internal guilt reflected so beautifully in these 4-5 words...He is guilty and the natural reaction is that one becomes defensive...and in doing so cannot listen to anything negative about him...his defense reflex was fully active during this initial part of the their talk....So for me it was Denial and Defense that he was going through....
and in defending him how he tries to justify it all...asking for that acceptance from his Dad that what he did was actually the best thing to do....But than he knows himself deep down that he has done it all wrong...he has broken that single thread that held the relationship with Arohi...The colors of the elevator would never be the same again! he knows that....and the eyes that were rock solid in front of the redness in Arohi's eyes a few minutes ago...were now filled with a pain more than hers....cuz they not only reflected Arohi's pain but also his own! Where Arohi will only have to cry on her fate.....her humiliation...Arjun has to cry for the pain he gave and the pain he feels! he deserves that....but than is it his fault? i think its his father's fault ccaz in precap he tells mohan "solah saal ke baad bhi mujah mein arjun ko such batane ki himmat nahin haii" so arjun of course doesn't know the truth that his father is the one not his mom ...
His confusion comes across in his dialogues...I loved it when he says "woh toot gayee Dad" and than a while later says "I am sure woh ghar jaa kar theek ho gayee ho gy".....The former reflecting the guilt...the later the defense....I am bowled over by the creatives and Arjun's act today! yet again he is concern about arohi that is she k or not...
Moment of the day:"Arjun tu ro kion raha hai"....the realization...the truth which he tried to hide...is punched right there on his face! and that marks the intensity of his love....No No its not infatuation...its love...and pure love...and the irony of the situation is as I always say both of them know the depth of their feelings but fail to realise the depth of feelings the other has for them! The "Haalaath".....
i know i mean arjun didn't kno him self that he had tears in his eyes.. woh kehte hain naa dil ki baat aansu bankar beh gaii..
Dilaogue of the Day: "Pata nahin Dad...I dont know....Jub zindagi main aap ko koi hurt karta hai to aap badle main ussi ko hurt karte hain haina...But I dont know why Dad...aaj jub main nai usse hurt kia....usse dard pohnchaya to....Dad ulta main hurt ho raha hoon....Dad....mujhe bura lag raha hai Dad...main effect ho raha hoon....Why" its because of the LOVE
He does not hate her......He hates himself! and that is because they are not any more two different entities at the emotional level...*sigh* Anu I could almost see the tears lingering around your eyes!
And finally as he listens to DK's monologue...he is numb....The fourth stage of grief...depression, reflection...loneliness which finally continues to the end of the show!
DK: The concerned Father!
I appreciate the way they showed DK worrying for his son....so no matter what has been there, he really loves his son and is hurt at seeing him in this state...Satyajeet did a fabulous job as he tries to calm down Arjun not only emotionally but also holds him and hugs him to give him that sense of security which is soo needed when a child is broken by the harsh realities of life...Parents who have gone through most of them, can not only understand the pain but than act as the best resort for us to subdue the pain.... Today I would not throw any shoes at him cuz whatever, he atleast gave him that shoulder which Arjun needed the most right now! I loved the way he calmed down Arjun....
and this gives me another perspective about his character... ohhh please i mean yeahhh some what he cares about arjun but he also wants him to do whatever he wants. its like arjun is not his son he is some kind of pet or somethin ... i mean if u really love ur son n are worried about him then tell him the truth n let him be happy with arohi cazz i m damn suree Dk knows arohi is a great girl just like her father HP the only problem is she is from middle class ... n i think he should be happy that arohi is raised by savita after her mother died ...
A final comment...even in this beautifully done episode...BT ka flavour was not to be missed! The lamp was back and fully working in the last scene! Moreover the last scene although nice with the background score and everything but is the unwanted gift of the 45 min duration...soon these long eyelocks, earlocks, realizations, would become unbearable! if you dont have content just reduce the time limit....cuz what you have is enough to grab the viewer attention! Please Cut Arjun's hair....I am loosing my patience!
Oh my...I never thought I would type in this much...but this was an episode I loved so much I could not stop myself from writing my heart out! Kritika, Karan and Satyajeet just made it a fabulous watch! Thanks to the KMH team for this!
Your comments!
