i think today's episode brought us back to the title of the show itself - kumkum bhagya
not being a philosophy class but every time the topic of fate/destiny/luck appears it always is tied to the fact that it cannot be controlled and that whatever is "written" in our lives is inevitable.

when i was quite young - i did used to watch a lot of tv serials - (i was 12) lmao - and i believed all that about the fate and it happens for a reason but growing up i realise that whatever is written in your fate may still be there but it is STILL in YOUR hands - therefore you are in control of changing it around.
if you believe that something will happen, odds are it will but you don't always have to let it be that way - you can change the surroundings as well as your mind to equip the outcome you want from your 'so called destiny'

coming back to the show...whether abhi likes it or not pragya has accepted her fate and the episode just about showed this. abhi was in control of his destiny - rather he was sure that tanu has always been his lucky charm but as soon as he began to imagine pragya - the tables turned. she is now his lucky charm just because abhi himself started to believe so and even follow what pragya said. though pragya is letting destiny shape up itself abhi is beginning to play about with it. he never wanted pragya to be a part of his life but now that he is controlling that element of his life - his destiny is beginning to change and that really stood out for me in today's episode!

i dunno maybe im thinking too deep but its something that interested me so i thought to share 😊

btw sorry for being so inactive on this forum but i refrained myself from verbally abusing every single episode and character after that mandir scene!

Hi!! Never really seen you in this forum, but glad that you're back!😊
And regarding destiny, I used to believe in it too when I was young. But as I grew older I came to realise that if you're destined with someone from the start, then you're with them because you've no choice. That person has already been made for you and you have no choice but to accept them. I somehow don't find that romantic. I haven't watched today's episode, though. Destiny keeps pulling Abhi & Pragya together no matter how much they want to get out of it. Pragya initially thought Suresh was her destiny and Abhi thinks Tannu is. I like that they both had/have their fair share of first love/crush.
I don't think Pragya has any control when it comes to this destiny thing, she herself has said it. But you're right about Abhi. He has a choice to run out, but deciding whether he wants to stick with the destiny thingy or choose the other path is on his hands and what the rest episodes are about I think.

I believe in destiny. Especially when it comes to your people. We don't choose who are our parents..and brothers and sisters. And later, friends and lovers happen to us. We can claim we chose, but things fall in place with some defined order. You can call it randomness too, oh well.


Yet, we gotta keep with our efforts while destiny rules us.

Remember Abhi's destiny speech?

He goes on and on about how destiny impacts, how one ends up with a person unthought of.. and finally he says hell with destiny..

But yeah, he is the one ruled by destiny the most here.. and he will fight it until the end only to give in.

LOVE THIS POST and so thank you for starting it!

I too believe that you can change your destiny though your actions and your destiny could take a different turn. Whether it ends up where it was supposed to be all along but through a different route, that I guess, we will never know 😃

They say your spouse or partner does change your luck too, so do that of children as every person coming into this earth comes here with their own destiny.

Coming back to the show, Abhi was so sure that Tanu was his good luck charm that he even called Pragya manhoos. It was unfathomable that she could be lucky. To me it was so insightful for Pragya to say just think of me and you will find luck and that I don't need to touch the cards. Somewhere in her, she knows that they are meant to be and their destiny and luck are intertwined so the gesture of touching cards didn't mean anything to her, but his belief in her did. That's important, Abhi's belief that he is meant to be with her will soon happen 😆
