Sad episode, good acting & dialogs

Fabulous Post Aartiji!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Thank you for making this post. I was sad with CP track and seing AshNi so much grief-striken in last Thu's episode but was all hopeful for Nidhi's good news before end of the show on 28th march. So, with all positivity intact, when I watched this episode, I too felt that this was one of the best episodes of KTLK post khushi track. It had finest scenes in trademark ktlk style and both SK and KK were amazing in their acting and expressions. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

The first scene itself, Ashu picking up the phone from Doc, with so much excitement and then everything falling apart for him just like a house of cards... it was so heart-rending to watch Ashu after this ph. call. Dunno why but I have always felt that Dr. Ashutosh is best at expressing grief than any other emotions- be it MBji or SKji. But, the emotions pain is like synonym for this character or what... whenever u see Ashu in pain, u cannot stand to see him like that... 😭😭😭😭😭

Ashu-BB scene was as usual awesome!! After AsNi's unique age-gap lovestory, I have loved Ashu-BB rishta the most. BB who was overjoyed father just this morning and had hugged "mera beta" Ashu with so much love... immediately came as a loving, caring, understanding and supportive father, Nana as well as Father-in-law at this moment and he knew that Ashu's dream is broken, but immediately he advised him to take care of Nidhi first. Then as a Dr., the way BB explained CV about Nidhi's CP, Ashu too derived strength from this convo and exactly the same he explained to Nidhi later on... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 No direct communication between father-son took place, but still BB was there for Ashu in times of his sons' immense grief... This made me love this special F-S relationship even more!! 😃

Next, BR scene was so so heart wrenching...😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Nidhi as to-be-mom was dreaming about her child in her sleep. KK's expression were mindblowing in this scene!! The expressions of happiness, peace and bliss of motherhood were so palpable on her face even in her sleep... truly amazing!! Kudos to KK!! It clearly showed how much Nidhi too wanted to become a mother at this stage. Her motherhood desires had already surfaced with Anji's MC. As she got the needed assurance from her hubby and AshNi bonding got stronger, these desires grew deeper. AK's words triggered them properly and DB's advise prepared her completedly to embrace motherhood. Ashu too assured her of sharing responsibilities and facing entire phase together. So, now there was no question of Nidhi having second thoughts about motherhood!! Ashu's dialogue on he not wanting to shatter her dream but would have to was again so touching... Really brought tears in my eyes!!

But when Nidhi woke up, he completely composed himself and successfully engaged her in different talks hididng his inner turmoil. The pain in his eyes was so visible when Nidhi told him about what she was dreaming about and Ashu didnt leave her hand even for a second in delivery room... Gosh... I couldnt dare imagine how painful it would have been for Ashu to have heard these lines from his life, his Nidhi... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 He offering her fruits and Nidhi asking him about being so much caring and romantic was another freat scene!! Ashu's dialogue tum auraton ka yahi problem hota hai, kuch karo toh bhi takleef, kuch na karo toh bhi takleef something was too good!! The caring hubby indulging wifey!! But the next moment the way he conveyed to Anji to not talk sad to Nidhi coz he hadnt informed her of her CP as yet, was such a difficult moment... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Nidhi in her own excitement, trying to place a call to Doc, Ashu snatching away the phone and breaking the sad news to her was so realistically portrayed... BB watching this trio over & feeling shattered was so sorrowful. Nidhi immediately got up and went to her room to have some privacy but Ashu accompanied her holding her... Nidhi looking nowhere in space, the lost and shattered look in her eyes but still stopping by BB and saying sorry to him was so heartwrenching... Though BB never asked her directly, but after AK's advise, Nidhi perfectly knew that BB too wanted this child and was equallly heartbroken with the sad news. I literally cried at these scenes... Seeing Nidhi in such sorrow isnt possible for me... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

The whole BR convo was trademark KTLK style... KritSha portrayed a perfect real life couple who have been deprived temporarily of bliss of parenthood... Nidhi's griefstricken look, Ashu hiding his pain and putting ahead Nidhi's sorrow and comforting her was so brilliantly portrayed by KritSha!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Nidhi talking to him about woman's life being incomplete without a child etc. was somewhat unlike-Nidhi but it helped convey how much she herself wanted to be mommy and give Ashu what he always had wanted from her... She aplogizing to hr hubby was also somewhat awkward for me, but the way Ashu comforted her here explaining things to her as a Doctor, I felt he was convincing himself too... He refuted all atavistic sort of talks from her and firmly assured her that he didnt have anything against her 2 yr. wait decision at this time. He too had understood that getting into parenthood was Nidhi's dream as much as his by now and the intensity of feelings on Nidhi's side were no less his... These scenes were fabulously written, shot and portrayed... hats off to the CVs... 👏👏👏👏👏👏 The way AshNi were there for each other at this time of loss - something so personal to hubby-wifey only -- and only and only hubby could comfort wifey here was presented absolutely fabulously!!

Ashu's references to cabin scene certainly amused Nidhi as she never had heard /expected him to talk about that moment... The raja-titli story, Ashu's dialogue:"Mujhe pata nahi tha ki jab quile tootate hain tabhi ghar bante hai Nidhi" & "Makaan toh mere paas tha, tumne mujhe ghar diya Nidhi" were the best dialogues!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 The love and admiration in Ashu's voice, eyes and facial expression and the awe and love and amusement in Nidhi's eyes and on face were truly a treat to watch!! A small trip down memory lane helped them both recover from this sorrow. Ashu insisting her on coming to park and she relenting was so much caring on a hubby's part!!

When they came outside, Ashu holding her as if strongly supporting her was so much significative of how Ashu is there for her in this sorrowful time!! But, I loved the way DB rushed to her bachchi... She is the mother-figure for her bachchi na... As a wife Nidhi needed Ashu's support but as a woman, she needed another woman -- her mother -- by her side too... DB who was hellbent on agreeing Nidhi to start a family, so lovingly comforted Nidhi and consoled her; asked her to eat something but didnt force her understanding her mental state was so typical of a mother who wanted to share her child's pain... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 All elders understood AshNi's requirement of staying together when Ashu told them that they are going out for a while. The silent glances that BB-Ashu exchanged at this time, fully assured BB that his son has learnt to comfort his wife now and no preaching/teaching is now required for him!!

The best scenes for me were the scenes in park... With the example of that boy "guddu" they subtly pointed out that having children is the biggest blessings of mother nature but when any couple could easily beget children, sometimes they fail to appreciate this blessing!! Guddu's mom was cribbing to her hubby about the kid being so much mischievous and keeping her on her toes and guddu's father was feeling the kid was really a trouble for him...😡 Later when finally he got up and called the boy, guddu immediately started behaving sensing the strictness in his father's voice than the request and love in his mother's voice... 😃 and silently went with his father... AshNi who had been just deprived of parenthood bliss temporarily were watching this whole thing and these scenes very subtly conveyed the difference between childless couple's' yearning vs. couple-with-child's style of taking children for granted... Hats off to ktlk CVs here... Such a huge reality, they portrayed with such subtlety!! This is what my ktlk is!!

Here in park also, Ashu tried to comfort and cheer Nidhi up in various ways. Tried to dodge away the whole matter in hilarious talks... But Nidhi is her life partner devoted to him her mind, body, heart and soul... How she wouldnt sense his pain?? U know in this entire epi. I literally cried watching Ashu comforting Nidhi... I was so upset with Nidhi's sorrow and couldnt help crying seeing Ashu smiling and comforting Nidhi hiding his emotional turmoil and trying to act normal and stay composed in front of her while churning badly inside. He portrayed a great supportive and understanding and caring hubby.

Throughout the epi, KK was as always fabulous with her eye expressions and was no lesser than SK in any manner but watching SK especially in last 5 min. of epi. was real treat - when Nidhi tells him that she knows, Ashu isnt serious about what he is talking and he is doing all this to comfort her and cheer her up and then she says him "but still... I love you" -- SK in next scene is mindblowing... The way he looks away so as to not let Nidhi see his expressions of pain and sadness; averts his eyes and then quickly gets back to normal but isnt able to speak anything... He tries to collect himself but words ditch him... Nidhi completely understood him, She didnt need her hubby tell her that he too was equally disappointed... What a great understanding is shown amidst such sorrowful moments... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 This is exactly how a couple made for each other; who lives and dies for each other acts in such situation... Hats off to the CVs for this scene!! Nidhi had sensed that Ashu is trying to act normal and is devastated inside, so she too quickly got her composure and thanked him with holding his hand and saying I love you... OMG... I watched that scene 5 times and cried bitterly... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Felt like jumping inside the TV and give my beloved AshNi a tight hug, pat their back and tell them that everything would be alright... dont worry... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 The way Ashu reciprocated her I love you instantly, understnading that she has sensed it all and nothing to hide from her... was again splendid on Ashu's part!! The man Dr. Ashutosh has never opened up to anyone when it has come to his pain, but to his Nidhi, he is like an open book... Nidhi understand him every cell of his now... Loved the way he very very poignantly left himself revealed to her with his pain on their loss... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 What a great bonding between AshNi. Perhaps, after this loss, they would best understand what it means for them to be with each other, together forever and to have their bundle of joy with them forever... ☺️

All these scenes were fantaulous and so aesthetic... Hats off to my KritSha... the couple played such a realistic scene - they perfectly looked like any real life couple who have been thru this situation of loosing a child before they could even sink the news of pregnancy... Bachche aane ki khushi ka naam suna aur woh naam ki khushi bhi unse chhin gayi... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Truly it was a sad episode, but totally expressions galore episode!!

Best dialogue for me: "quile jab totte hai tabhi ghat banta hai Nidhi", "Makaan toh mere paas tha; tumne use ghar banaya Nidhi" And of course "I love You" from AshNi both... ☺️

Aarti - thanks for making this post...As I had written in an other post - I was watching this episode again yesterday and despite the sadness in it I found that there were many lovely moments in the same...

Thanks for this post Aarti,I might now watch the episode now ,as we have the impending good news.I think in the last segment ,Ashni saying I love you was so endearing as both understood each other's pain and still they were together in their grief. I have not seen the episode but I can imagine Ashu's expressions trying to wait for nidhi to wake up,and that too to give such a devastating news,I loveb Bb Ashgu looks to each other,I must confess ,no matter how many bad tracks and moments we crib about but Ashu Bb relation has really been portrayed beautifully all along,waiting to see happy faces of Ashni once again.

Ashni love, bonding, Care for each other, understanding, dialogue everything was superb. Baas timing galat tha.

As usual, excellent analysis Dear.

Aarti, that was an excellent review-analysis of a very sad,touching episode...

It was too painful episode for me.i didnt even want to revisit it.
Just d post with ur name had the power to make me do it.wanna cry now.

With temperatures soaring and emotions simmering I was wondering if all of you even took note of some fine acting by all the cast in Thursday's episode.😳When we refer to music we sometimes say that the saddest songs bring out the sweetest memories, similarly Thursday's episode was tragic but had a good bunch of expressions and dialogs that could tug at your heart strings.😭 So presenting some of the scenes/ dialogs I liked...

firstly thank u soo much for making this post and appreciating the efforts and the amazing acting by the actors...much love for making this post...🤗

ur post makes me really feel evreything i did felt in the epi again ...👏👏

When Ashu gives news of the negative report to BB and wonders how he would face and tell Nidhi, BB asks him to be considerate and sensitive towards Nidhi's feelings... this brought a smile on my face and I wanted to tell BB that he needed to revise his opinion... the Ashu of the Mallika days was long gone and in his place was a new Ashu for whom the day began and ended with Nidhi, she was his world. And BB need not advice him about these things anymore. The father-son exchange where BB asks Ashu not to worry about this and also BBs explanation to CV about BCP strangely assured Ashu as well. Again when he took Nidhi out the silent exchange between the two showed their depth. That one look told BB that Ashu was going to try talk to her and help her recover.

yeah their exchange was very well done⭐️

When Ashu waits for Nidhi to wake up, his thoughts about not breaking her dream was a clear acknowledgement from Ashu that he understood how much Nidhi now wished to become a mother.👏 There are no more lingering questions in his mind about Nidhi's decision. And then he had also witnessed her excitement at discovering this pregnancy... the line 'main tumhara sapna nahin toodunga Nidhi kyunki jab tum jaagogi toh mujhe tumhara dil todhne ke sevai koi chara nahin hoga'...a poignant statement that revealed how much Ashu anticipated her pain...😭

@black-this one line was enough to make me feel like crying...ashu's care abt the dream which mekes her smile...and not wanting to disturb her speaked volumes abt his feelings👏👏

Next one is my favorite... I have mentioned this many times, it was my dream to see Ashu make some reference to 'the' cabin scene (I am still waiting for the day he will say 'yeh coat ab tumhe fit hota hai Nidhi 😳), but anyways what he said came close and he also referred to their Raja-Titli story after so long... First when Nidhi starts blaming herself he rubbishes all her claims 👏 with the quiet authority of an experienced doctor. This clearly showed that he had fully accepted Nidhi's 2 year request and would never hold it against her, 👍🏼 maybe laying to rest all that lingering guilt that Nidhi possessed that sometimes reared its ugly head.😔

i was also really happy to ashu share wat he felt for her back then in their first meeting...soo naturally done😃also the way he assures her thatits not the be all and end all...that they wud soon be parents with the love of a hubby but the wisdom of the great doctor that he is...👏👏

Then he reminds her of that day in his cabin when she was looking for his keys and confesses how she had affected him.😉 He was scared of his reaction to her. We have always wondered if it was instant attraction and how Ashni fell in love, and here Ashu was giving some explanations.😎 But the best line was 'mujhe nahin pata tha ki jab qile girte hain to ghar banta hai!' Wow! Nidhi was rightly amazed, he was supposed to be Dr. Heartstone then! 😲 And Ashu further tells her that she is the one who turned his house into a home, 😃 what would a girl not give to hear such sweet words from her husband, to hear him confess that home to him is where she is says it all..👏 ❤️ that one dialog moved me to tears...

it was awesome ...brilliant... amazing... ashu's heartfelt words clearly told here that she means the world to him...his home is where she is...and nothing and nobody matters more to him than her and her happiness... a dialogue any girl would give up anything for..to hear that from her husband❤️

Finally the touching scene at the park where Ashu attempts to cheer Nidhi up with talk of waiting some more and him not being in a hurry, etc, etc. And this time it was Nidhi's turn to console Ashu because she understood that he was clearly hiding his grief from her. 🥺 So she stops him and tells him he need not try so hard and that she knew he was simply attempting to make her happy. She had recognized his efforts at his mock display of cheerfulness when he was also as disappointed as her, maybe more. 👍🏼

it was a great moment wen nidhi clearly sees through him and realises the efforts he's putting in to cheer her up wen inside he's also pained equally...fell in love with ashu again for being soo soo supportive and caring ❤️

In the end she just takes his hand and simply says 'I love you'... this conveyed so much more, her gratitude, love, admiration, trust, concern for her husband.👍🏼 🤗 And Ashu's equally simple response, he initially looks away knowing that Nidhi has seen through him and there was no point in hiding from her, he then simply holds her hand and returns her 'I love you'...❤️ a timeless gesture but one that said they would get through this and would remain hopeful for the future... parenthood was a shared dream now.😳 😛

yeah its a shared dream now...😳 and the dialogue about them getting sum time off the duty for preparation even made me smile😃...the sinsle moment of "i love u " and their silently holding hands spoke volumes ...which million words wudn't hav conveyed❤️

We have all cribbed at the rotten timing of this track and the usual medical inaccuracies wrt BCP but lets give credit where it is due, the acting and dialogs. So please add on, which was your best dialog. 😃

agree with you...😃 lets concentrate on the awesomely done scenes...the emotional power the epii held...👏their pain was soo palpable...😭😭

great job done team ktlk👍🏼
