CHAPTER 7 REVIEW

Hello...Ready with andas and tamatars..for me being so late😆..

na na..today in a good mood so will go by the philosophy of better late than never...😉

This fic is having a totally different impact on us as compared to other writings...for two reasons

First is that it has this seamless flow like that of a fairytale ki man karta hai ki padte hi jao.. it takes us into that fictitious world jisse hum baaahar nhi aana chaahte..and even your cliffhanger can't dampen that spirit😆...

Ab aap hi batao aise difficult situation mein how are we expected to analyse the chapter and post our review😡

when i can write a whole chapter, its the least you can do 😡😆

And secondly, some scenes are similar to season 1, it actually confuses me..because the differences and similarities automatically pop up in my mind and i end up getting confused😆..i bet how are you writing it without confusing yourself???

i stopped reading KSMK 1 after the first 4 chapters Deepali. and once the story changed completely, its not that difficult.

The love confession part was same..but it was a treat reading it again..have always loved this part..loved Nidhi in this scene..
Her courage and determination were just out of the world, out of the box..and no matter what i love this nidhi so so much..(i am gonna end up getting confused..shirley ko kehti hun i hate nidhi and aapko i love her🤣..agar kisi din ulta bol diya to samajh jaaana plz😆)

😡 🤣 ok

And this Ashu, Omg..pakka she devil ashu hai

😆 of course, i told Suku also..yeh Ashu toh mera hain..

This Ashu is harsh and gentle in his own way..and both forms are for Nidhi's good only..atleast that is what he thinks..

But Ashuji ko kya pata ki pyaar ki dor itni aasaani se nhi todi jaa sakti..aur nidhi tootne bhi nhi degi..hope so..

And Ashu's pain of his childhood is much more evident in this season..it can be seen quite clearly

true..and am glad i could do that..

What i liked about this fic was that you didn't bring in armaan or rohan to solve their issues..armaan is their but the story is not dependant on him..you let ashni take the charge this time..

You skipped nidhi's project part in this one..that used to be my favourite from among the preconfession scenes..missed that here😡

😆 lots of scenes have been edited out Deepali..i told you na..i am going to remove all traces of the fairy tale.

." No. No Nidhi. It is not love. Yeh pyaar nahi hain. Yeh pyaar nahi hosakta. Its just infatuation..a crush. And you will realize it soon enough. I will make you realize it

The last line had a huge impact..can't put it in words.. He is fighting with himself over here..

correct. hence the title Kashmakash..conflict within..

The flower vase scene was another strong punch..these small things, these gestures, these actions have already defined their relationship..but he isn't willing to accept that..

Nidhi..please Nidhi..don't do this to me. Just back off. Please! I can fight myself. I can fight you. I can't do both. Don't tempt me with something that I can't have Nidhi. I can't do this! Please..leave me alone!

This was the essence of whole chapter..condensed into one..his feelings so tender ,so raw..and so intense..Hats Off!!!!!!

☺️ thank you

And baba..my heart went out to him..seeing his son undergoing so much pain..its not easy for any parent..

Why doesn't he open up? He never opens up. Kuch achcha hain toh share karta hain. Lekin saara dard apne andar dabaa deta hain. My 35 years of love is not able to wipe out the first 7 years of horror of my son's life: Teek hain.

Even in sleep you frown beta. Aisa kaunsa dard hain jo tu sab se chuparaha hain?

This feeling of not being able to help your kid in distress..utter helpnessness is really disheartening..

yes..baba's role has also changed to some extent.

The phone scene was very delicate..i wished i could just snatch te phone from his hand and make him to talk to nidhi😭..but she devil touch ke bina to chapter adhoora rehta na😡😛..

😆 true

Armaan coming into picture itself gives relief...Ashu confessing before Armaan was good..atleast that was hassle free..thank god for small mercies..is armaan residing in delhi aur Mumbai??

Armaan this time is residing in Delhi.

Is he still running bcoz of child abuse or age gap or both???

both

Now what?? Ashu is gone.. not only this Ashu is stronger..so is Nidhi..

yes. both have been made stronger..

Last time she had Armaan, Mansi, Baba and most importantly Ashu's love..but what would happen this time around..she is all alone..all by herself..

Another thing..this update showed heartstone version to nidhi but sweetheart version to ashu himself

so true..🤗 thank you loads and loads Deepali.

Nice update. The addendum has really intensified the "kashmakash". Loved Nidhi's courage to bear his refusal...Oh... I felt so bad the way he left her in his cabin...but she really nerved herself...the way she faced world... and then her resolve to fight for her love was just great...

thank you Pansy..this girl is strong, determined and stubborn. Ashu has no chance 😃

Liked Ashutosh's unease after Nidhi faints in OT...the way he takes his phone and searches her number and just keeps looking at the name...Aah! the poor guy is fighting a tough battle.

And the scene after he returns from function his hallucination was too good...

Then strangely he feels a soft hand over his forehead and loving fingers combing through his hair. He feels the glide of a pair of soft lips all over his face taking away all the pain with them. He automatically reaches out his hand to touch that face and opens his eyes when it encounters emptiness. Temptation to reach out gnaws his insides.) May be I am not like my father. May be I really am different. May be..

Thank you.

oh you liked this one?? I loved typing it..truly. its one of my most favourite scenes in this FF..🤗

😆 no issues Aarti...i know your schedule so this time around, i would just be glad if you can catch up and read the chapters...reviews we will discuss later..

Chapter 6 review:

this chapter is all about bold Nidhi in action! 😊 Bravo! To buy a gift on impulse is very differetn from actually giving that gift, and that too on his birthday. Its a miracle that Ashu does not suspect anything

of Nidhi's feeling for him, but just feels mild awkwardness at this point. And once more their mutual humor and Nidhi tongue in cheek makes light of the situation.

There are definitely more references to her Mom here, something that was missing in the fist version where it seemed as if Nidhi forgot her mother very soon.

i know. after THT, i was reading KSMK 1 and thats the first thing i felt..

But this touch is lovely and very much needed. Nidhi's constant references about what her mother said shows their deep bond and also makes it easy for Ashu to open up to her. So this time he has confessed some of his life story and she has come to know that he was an orphan. And she has also understood that even after 35 ears he still missed his mom. And she wants to soothe away that pain... wow, she is a goner! 😃

😳 oh she was a goner the moment their ids got tangled. it just got worse now..

And it also links them with an unseen thread of pain... so after all these years he tries to recollect some good times he spent in those short few years with his mom and its also the first time he remembers a happy memory of her... this is a monumental step, goes to show how Nidhi is capable of bringing him out of his black thoughts and into the sunshine by focusing on the happy ones, ones he has kept hidden deep inside him. Simply loved this interchange Sujatha... this time you have delved into Ashu's thoughts and struggles and Nidhi's positive influence in a better way. 👏 And she has been effective in drawing a positive connection between mother and son by pointing out their mutual interest of singing. Guess his self-thought says it all. 😳

yeah..i wanted some connecting point between the mother and son..something other than the pain.

Well, Nidhi is falling deeper in love and Anji is her witness. Nidhi's happiness is infectious and the first person she wants to share with is Anji. Once again true, close friendship. But I can already sense that when Ashu and Nidhi get together this Anji will have lingering doubts for much longer than in the first version. Here she seems more protective of Nidhi. On the other hand changes in Ashu are very obvious, atleast to BB and HK... but uff Sujatha, that was quite a twist there! 😆 What an inopportune moment to have the convo and BB bringing into focus the point that Ashu has fallen in love with Nidhi. And Ashu refutes the claim but inwardly he is shaken by the truth.

logically thats what i felt should have happened. a guy who is hell bent on not getting involved is going to jerk back after that conversation..

And now another struggle for him, how to keep Nidhi at bay! Very deflty handled with the example of the tie where he wants to keep her or the tie close and still hide the fact from her. The convo with BB, BBs thoughts and Ashu's thoughts after that are all new and classic of the struggle he is about to face of whether to stick to his resolution or give a chance to love and life... and all those avoidance measures from him now have Nidhi hurt and confused.

BB is also hurt and sad that whatever he did failed to erase those painful memories but he is sure and hopeful that if Ashu has fallen in love then destiny will take its course. Nice character hoping that what he could not achieve a girl's touch would.

yeah..

Ashu's thoughts, his self-acknowledgement of falling in love but at the same time the determination to not let it show and get out of hand clearly shows the extent to which he has hardened himself from all the softer emotions. It does not mean he does not feel them or does not want to experience them, but it definitely shows the extent to which fear in his mind over-rides all other emotions. A super confident, successful surgeon to everyone is actually still a frightened child trying to break free and so far has not succeeded. So he hides the tie but it confuses and hurts Nidhi...well this is only the start for her now., first the avoidance, the cold shoulder... so much more to come for her! 😭

can't wait to see your reaction after chapter 7 and 8. BTW, did you read chap 7??😳

Finally the situation of the boy in the end is the same as well as the conclusion... BAM! 😲 To run away and hide from his feelings is one issue but how can he stop Nidhi from loving him... what a dilemma he is in...😛 And to hide behind his facade is one thing but how do you hide when its someone's else's mind and heart? Beautifully written chapter Sujatha. 👏

thank you Aarti 🤗..yes, it does have the promo in this one..courtesy of my editor...😆

And I forgot this earlier but the tie part had all the shades of one of the promos in it. 😳

CHAPTER 6 REVIEW

Hi..all well?? ..How many tamatars do i get for being this late..oops...bhaaago..sote hue sher ko jaga diya lagta hai..

nahi..bola na..aaj mood achcha hain...so here is a hug and a thank you for your review..

Wow..mere Ashu ka birthday..i was like ..

Nidhi, Ashu and Birthday and birthday gift..wow..kya scene tha..perfect combo di..i still have a long smile on my face😳

Ashu: Who told you? (Mischievous eyes and smiling lips are the only answer.) Toh aap florist ke saath saath detective bhi hain Nidhi Verma!

@bold: i can imagine this scene a thousand times di..you are wonder girl with a magic wand in your hands..😆

awww..

You rightly said that, they have ventured into a personal arena..bonding over mutual loss and mutual pain..but its this unspoken acceptance, belief, faith that defines what they share..

correct.

Anji and Nidhi were just fab .. i went out on Monday with my school friend..we know each other from 6^th grade and know each other inside out,aware of moods and tastes..thats what these two are..liked how Nidhi rushed to Anji to share her happiness..i was actually reminde of how i would call up my friend for no reason but to chit chat..😆

their friendship is the one thing in this FF that i didn't change.

Ashu pyaar karne se darta hai but pyaar to vo kar chukka hai..

." How did this happen? WHEN did this happen? Mujhe Nidhi se pyaar hogaya..kyon? I don't want this. I never wanted anyone in my life. I don't want. No! (His eyes look at his own refelection in the car mirror. Gritting his teeth, he removes the tie with a swift tug) Not now..not ever! I will make sure of it. (He locks his jaw) No matter what..I will make sure of it. Ek achchi ladki do baaten kya karli tumne apne hosh khodiye? Nahi Dr Ashutosh Mathur! most definitely NOT!

The conviction with which he says the last line definitely scared me..

😆 kyon??

And, before i forget to mention..BABA..his role has been more defined here..his interactions with Ashu are superbly written..how hard he might try he isn't able to remove Ashu's doubts about himself..

Baba's despair and helplessness is very evident here..specifically liked the yashoda maa part..

that dialogue was there in KSMK 1 too but what you said is correct. its more defined here.

The tie part was extraordinary.. It was actually symbolic of his "ankahi prem kahaani"..

He makes a move to throw the tie in the empty seat beside but his fingers form a fist around it and refuse to cooperate. With a rough growl, he shoves it into his trouser pocket and gets down from the car.)

He wants to let go of her..but couldn't detach her from himself..and kept her close enough to himself in his own way..which isn't visible to anyone not even to Nidhi..

👏 bang on buddy

So, the heartstone is back again..but this time he is being harsh on himself, his love, his heart, his soul, his life..his everything rather than someone else..

The heartstone was there before, the heartstone is there now only the perception has changed..beautifully etched di..

😃

This is the start of her courage, her determination, her conviction, which Ashu is unaware of, and has a long way to go..

oh yeah..fate is out to test her big time this time around..

The last part remains the same..but the impact has been doubled by changing the preceding scenes..by changing the plot..

true. but really glad that this rewriting thing is shaping up well Deepali..honestly had my doubts when i started it.
