************************************************************ ***************************************************
Mr scary recap man comes back and gives us a scary, over dramatic recap of whatever happened yesterday… Thank you Mr Recap Man. You may leave now!
Same scene from yesterday… Lakshya pulls KT to himself and they have a slight "RAAA REEEE" moment…
(Definition : A "raaaa reee" moment is a romantic L/KT moment, the "raa ree" attributed to the song that used to play in the good ol' days… )
Lakshya spins KT round and round and disappears as KT bumps in Eklavya and hyperventilates…
Maithili sees Pranay and Malishka dance to "Say na" and is slightly depressed…. Adi stands with Tanu and is not very happy either… I think it's coz Maithili is sad….
Paranay dorkishly tries to dance… Adi comes in between him and Malishka and smugly begins dancing with her… Pranay is pissed off and pulls Maithili in to dance.. Maithili happily dances with him… Neev and Prachi dance too…
Meanwhile, KT is dragged back by her attacker.. Parvati sees.. Same scene from yesterday…. I wont be writing it again… Please forgive me…
Parvati consoles KT and sends her to freshen up….
Phone comes.. Shikhar tells her to kill Tulsi… Kyaaaa bhankasss waste of time man….
Damini comes to Parvati…
D: Janki ji.. Seen KT?
P: She's gone to the washroom…. Damini… I need to tell you something… I can't go in front of Tulsi right now… So will you tell her?
D: Sure…
P: I know who raped KT…
Damini is shocked…
P: I don't know his name but I saw his face… He is here right now, among us…
D: Where is he?
Parvati points to the bar…. All the Virani boys are there, chillin… Damini moves behind Paro in shock, almost crying…
Close ups of Lakshya, Joydeep, Eklavya (WHO IS BITING HIS NAILS IN THIS PSYCHO WAY) and a coolly indifferent Manthan…
Damini goes to them…
D: Listen….??
Noone reacts… Only Manthan looks her way…
M: Yes chachi… What do you want?
D: I need to talk to you…
M: Fine.. Say whatever it is you wanna say…
Lol, I love his indifferent attitude… He's like "mastttt in his own world.." Me likey…
D: I wanna meet you after the party..
M: Fine… As you wish…
Waiter says something to Damini…
D: Manthan… Don't forget what I said… Come and meet me…
Manthan looks like "WTF?"
*******
Dark room…. Damini comes to Mayank… Who is crouching on the floor, crying and cowering… Damini is extremely tender and gentle with him…
D: Beta… Mayank… What happened to you… Did you eat??
M: I don't like anything here… I wanna go…
D: After sometime, we'll leave…
M: No… I wanna go now…
He gets up and turns… He's wearing the same thing the attacker wore…
D: Mayannk.. You're my good son, aren't you? Will you tell me something… Why did you do it??
M: Mama, I didn't do anything…
D: Tell me beta.. Why did you do it?!!
M: Mama.. I…
Ok.. Damini goes psycho…
D: MAYANK TELL WHY YOU DID YOU RAPE KT?!?!?!? WHY!!?!?!?
Slapping marathon starts.. I don't even get an opportunity to get out my slap-o-meter… The only thing I can tell you that it goes into the double figures… SLAP…!!! SLAP SLAP SLAP SLAP SLAP…!!!!!!!!!!!
Damini starts cries….
D: When Jankiji told me… That it was you…
Flashback: Parvati points to the Virani boys… Close up of Lakshya… Mayank walks past him and Parvati points to him… Damini is shocked…
D: Why, MAYANK???
M: Maaa…. What is "paap"…? I didn't do it... KT.. I like her so much… I like it when she's with me…. But she doesn't love me… She goes away from me… On "holi" day… She said she'll be with me the whole day…. That she would dance only with me… But she didn't…. Manthan troubled me.. Maa… If KT can love Lakshya then why cant she love me too??? On holi day she went with Eklavya bhaiyya too…
Flashback of Eklavya picking KT up…
M: And when I went into her room… She was sleeping… I tried to wake her … But she didn't get up…. I tried to hug her… But she pushed me away!! 2 times!!!!
Flashback.. Mayank tries to hug KT, but she pushes him off the bed… He comes and touches her face and turn it towards himself.. She wakes up and screams.. He proceeds to kiss her all over her face and neck as she screams and struggles…
Ok.. I don't think actually SEXUAL CONTACT HAPPENED… But this is prime TV… so even if it happened… They wouldn't show it… But I hardly think Mayank would even know about sex.. I don't know!
Damini is crying all this while… It's interspersed with shots of KT yelling and crying while Mayank forces himself on her…
Damini remembers KT's state…. She remembers KT accusing Eklavya…
Damini resumes her slapping marathon… Again, I was caught unaware and couldn't bring out the Slap-O-meter out.. But this must be like 4-5 slaps?
D: Do you know what you did??? DO YOU KNOW?!!??
She pushes him away in disgust…
M: EVERYONE SHOUTS AT ME! NO ONE LOVES ME! NOT EVEN KT! EVERYONE IS ANGRY AT ME!
He mournfully pads forward and hugs Damini… She cries and hugs him too…
D (thinks): What have you done, Mayank…. In your ignorance, you don't understand what you have done… What will I do now!?!? How will I save him!?!?!? IF EVERYONE AT HOME FINDS OUT THEN… MAYANK… NO!!! I wont let it happen!!!! I have to hide this!!!!!!
She takes his face in her hands….
D: You're my good son aren't you Mayank….!?!? You have my "kasam" What you told me… You wont tell anyone!!!! Not Papa… Not Dadi.. NO ONE! Only you and I know what you have don't to KT… You wont tell anyone!!!!
She's mumbling and muttering hysterically… She hugs him, repeatedly saying "nothing will happen to you.." and cries…
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Pragati's fiance dude.. That ugly tapori type… Is at the bar.. Drinking himself to the end of the world… Daksha comes and sees him drinking tequila shots and sucking on a lemon quarter…
D: What are you doing.. You drink the water first and then suck on the lemon? Now get up and shake yourself and you'll have nice lemonade inside you…
Fiance: Dadi… This is tequila…
D: Which "kila"??
F: Tequila, TEQUILA!
D: YOU have so much hair then why are you calling yourself "takla"???
F: If this in inside a person no, its magical.. You can keep uncle under your control!
D: Arara! My uncle died in 1992!
E: Not that uncle! Your husband…
D: Listen to me.. First thing… MY husband is already in my control… And second… You talk about this and I will really make you bald!
F: This makes an old woman young… It take sout your enemies… Do you have any enemies…?
D: Of course! I just made one! That "English Maasi"…
She remembers Trishna insulting her…
D: Waiter!!! Gimme three of those tiny glasses!!!! Anyway this is as tniy as a "cutting chai"… I need at least 3…!
So Daksha dadi and ugly fiance do tequila shots together! Hahahaha!
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Mrs Shah Sr. (Dadi) wonders where Inder is… She calls Pranay who tells her that Inder is not with him… She is surprised… Premlata asks her where Inder is, Dadi makes some excuse… Dadi wonder where Inder is…
Inder is hysterically asking a doctor to save someone.. The doctor tries to calm him down… Inder is still anxious and nervous and pleads the doctor to save the person…
Inder walks out and he looks into a room where a woman lies, unconcisious… There is a man standing next to her and a girl with her back towards Inder…
Girl: If anything happens to her…
Man: I'll talk to doctor and come….
The man comes out and Inder hides from him…
I: I have got so much from life… My family… The pain from years ago… To keep one person happy, we have to hurt another… All the money I earned cant pay this debt.. And it never will.. Why?? When I never got the answer myself, how can I explain it to you? My life has been split into 2 parts.. And you received only loneliness in your part…
He silently cries to himself…
************************************************************ ***************************************************
*SCENE OF THE DAY*
Tulsi walking around in the party… She sees Eklavya standing there and doing the psycho nail biting thing… Flashbacks of the slap marathon and her throwing him in jail… She walks up to him…
T: How dare you come here…!!! What you got wasn't enough??? I am seeing you still haven't learnt your lesson!!!! When your father forgot the difference between man and animal, I forgot that I was his mother… What lesson I taught your father, I can teach you too… I will give you such a punishment Eklavya, that you will never forget…
E: BHOWW!!!!!!
Lmao… I swear… HE said "BHOWWW!"
E: I am so scared!!!! No no… Actually… I'm not… What you did with my dad… You'll do to me? So SHOOT ME NAA! What happened? Oh… No gun??? Awww… (tu tut) NO GUN!!!!!!!!!! Tulsi Virani… If today you don't kill me…
He clicks his fingers at her… Tulsi has Ansh flashbacks… Eklavya doing the same things as him…
E: … You will regret it all life….
He grins evilly…
Ok ladies and gentlemen… I have an official announcement to make: Eklavya Virani… Has turned evil. May the party continue. Do try the butter chicken.
Tulsi is shocked….
T: You've… You've turned into Ansh!!!
E: Yes! I have! Afterall, I am his son!!!! I had his face.. And now I have his thoughts too!!! Which means… MY DAD IS BACK! Ansh Virani is back!!! And I promise you… This time, Ansh won't die so easily… Not in this lifetime… Tulsi…
He makes this psycho face and points to her….
E: Stay away from me…
Tulsi is in shock….
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Parvati is calling Tulsi… Trying to warn her to stay away from her.. Tulsi is walking towards Paro… Shikhar is watching all this…
Tulsi bumps in to Adi and Mayuri on the way.. Paro quickly hides by then…
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Daksha is as drunk as a skunk. There's a comedy scene b/w her and the chaaalu mama/mami of Kayamath… Bhunkaasss.. No good jokes. Please take my word for it and excuse me for taking the liberty to not write it.
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Nandini comes to the party looking absolutely beautiful in a gorjuss red sari… Karan who is with Tanya, notices and stares at her, awestruck…
K (thinks): Nandini, you wore same colour I love…
N (thinks): How could I forget that you love this colour?
Tanya sees Karan stealing glances at Nandini… Karan and Nandini stare at each other all love struck… Tanya is not happy…
The song playing… "Aane waala pal… Ik sapna hai…"
Sahil is thinking of Ganga… Tripti is looking at him, smiling her weirdo mean, yet well meaning smile…
Nandini stands in the background, between Karan and Tanya, smiling her cryptic Mona Lisa smile…
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Daksha is so piss drunk, she cant see where shes going.. She bumps into Himmat…
D: Shorry brother…
H: Daksha… It's me! Himmat!
D: Oh.. Then shorryy Himmat brother.
H: I am your husband!!!
D: So what mistake of mine is that?
H: Are you drunk!?!?
D: Yes… That "English maasi"…
Just then Trishna walks past them…
D: Oh Oxford University… ??
T: You talking to me?
D: You don't know English? I can walk English I can talk English…
T: Gimme a break!
D: Where you born on a no moon day!?!? Why is there always an eclipse on your face… ??? Even if there is a scholar type child.. If it sees your face and write an exam, it will fail… I think the Indian team went for the WC seeing your face… No wonder they lost and came… Wait… One sec…
She takes a picture on her mobile of Trishna…
T: Now what was that for???
D: To show the children in Junaagrah…! If they don't sleep I will show it to them and tell them or the photo wali madam will come…
Trishna tries to ignore her, but Daksha is persistant… She wants an apology… Himmat tells Trishna to tell sorry quickly or Daksha will never leave her…
T : Fine… Sorry…
D: Not like that.. In gujju… Say… Mane maaf kare che…
Trishna repeats it with much difficulty and Daksha finally leaves her alone… Trishna holds her head in pain…
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Tulsi keeps looking for Paro, who hides from her, in fear of having to kill her.. Damini fears that Paro will tell Tulsi the truth about Mayank… So Damini keeps Tulsi away from Paro…
Paro silently thanks Damini for keeping Tulsi away from her…
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Daksha is telling Adi and Pragati the downside of getting married… All of them include not getting enough space on the bed… Neev comes there and says they should spice up the party PUNJABI STYLE…. Daksha and Neev argue about Punjabi v/s Gujarati… Prachi comes and supports Daksha as she is Gujju too… Daksha ultimately wins the argument by telling Neev, whatever it is, he ultimately fell in love with a Gujju girl… .Neev blushes and smiles shyly…
Everyone dances to "G..U..J..J..U" from KHNH…. Including poor sweet BAA!
Daksha asks Bharat the DJ to play some "GUJJU KEM CHE KEM CHE SONG"
Daksha and Himmat perform to "Usne bola kem che kem che kem che…"
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Paro is in a dharamsankat…
P: I have to tell Tulsi that I cant come in front of her... But how?
She calls a waiter and takes a napkin off the tray.. On it she writes… " Tulsi, my family has been kidnapped by someone… If I want to save them… I will have to kill you… He has told me that if I come in front of you then I will have to kill you… So please… I will not come in front of you… And you too should stay away from me… - Janki Devi…
She sees Tulsi nearby and throws the napkin… Tulsi moves away and the napkin hits Neev…
N: Lo… People are still using 70s ke ideas…
He's about to read it when Prachi come.. They have a playful fight about the letter that could be a love letter…
Neev pulls Prachi to a corner and they read the message… They are shocked…
N: We need to save Tulsi ji and JD's family too… Come with me…
Oh… Suit boot mein aaya kanhaiyaa band bajaane ko…?
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Paro is on the phone… Shikhar tells her to stop playing this game of avoinding Tulsi.. The next dance performance is of the two of them and she cannot avoid it anymore…
One of my favourite songs plays "Hoton mein aisi baat main dabake chali aayi..."
Paro starts singing and dancing to it… Tulsi just holds the mike and mouths the words like she's giving some political speech and promising poor villagers electricity and schools… Waah waah!
Split screen… Sakshi gives an amazing performance… Tulsi continues her wooden speech… WHY GOD WHY!
The performance is over and Paro pulls the gun on Tulsi… Tulsi is shocked…
T: What are you doing!?!?
P: I am forced to do this… I have to kill you! Killing you is as difficult as seeing my own family die a slow painful death… Please.. RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY!!! What happens after that is my fate…! Or I will have to kill you! Please go!
T: No Janki.. I know you need help… Until I help you, I will not go… If you have to shoot me, shoot me…
P: I cant…. You have come here to help me and I… I cant! PLEASE GO!!!
T: Now I understand… What a big musibat you are in… There is someone here who doesn't want you to get this CD… But I wont let it be hidden… This secret will come out today… Even if I have to die in the process…! Shoot…! Cmon! Let the person see!
Paro closes her eyes and Is about to shoot when Neev screams to her not to shoot… He's got Prachi in tow…
N: You don't have to kill her anymore.. We've saved your family…!
Paro throws her gun away…
N: You're wondering how we know???
He smiles… Aye haye haye… Tauba tauba.. Saari ki saari bateesi dikhaayi de rahi hai…
N: Actually… I got your "wind kabootar" .. Blah blah blah… (he tells the entire story..)
Shikhar is angry…
N: SO then I thought.. Why should you have to kill Tulsi? I will do it…!!! (Prachi hits him) Then I thought… IT's better if we save your family… One CBI officer "Ashu" helped me.. Nice guy…
Flashbacks of Neev and Ashu talking…. It's one hilarious looking muted conversation.. They go and save the oldies…
N: That's all… There's no need to worry anymore…
P: Thank you, Neev…
N: No problem "Jaanu"… I mean Janki Ji… Hee hee…
Shikar: If Tulsi gives Parvati the CD then… No.. I won't let it happen….
He pulls out a gun and shoots towards Tulsi.. Neev comea and pushes her out of the way…
Prachi: NEEV?!?? ARE YOU OK!?!?!
Yes… He's absolutely fine. How about I shoot you and ask you the same question, dollface?
N: No, it just grazed me…
Shikhar quickly leaves but not before he knocks over a few candles and sets the place on fire, just like in Neev's dream….
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Every other person in the place has gotten out.. But Neev and Prachi are stuck in the middle of one fire ring…
Neev tries to lighten the situation by marrofying some really bad jokes. But its not working. Poor prachi. Apparently it not enough that the girl is dying, NO! God is cruel enough to get her stuck in the place of her death with a wise cracking smartass… Idiot.
N: Prachi, remember I said that we would always be together and do everything together…? But what I am about to do.. It's only for me…
Prachi looks shocked, but relieved that he finally stopped with the lame jokes. He puts her in some weird drum… And he ROLLS HER OUT…
OMG HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAA!!!!!!!!!! 🤣
Neev continues standing in the middle of the fire place cracking lame jokes trying to not show his fear of death… Prachi yellin at him to get out but he's too wrapped up in his crying/laughing/joking to notice…
Suddenly… A rope falls from the skies… Umm.. The ceiling?
Neev looks up… Lakshya is holding the other end of the rope…
Lakshya !!! MY SWEET SAVIOUR… Umm… Neev's sweet saviour doesn't sound right … So I'll just use " MY SWEEET SAVIOURRRRRRRR!!!"
Neev just stares at him like he's got 4 heads… Lakshya could have gone out and manaaofied KT in this time insteada wasting time on this guy!
L: GRAB THE ROPE!!!! PRACHI GET THE DOCTOR!!! I'LL BRING NEEV…!
Lakshya pulls Neev up in this totally unbelievable manner… Lakshya making all the needed constipated faces though… He finally helps Neev up and the two, one semi cute guy, and one MEGA HOT GUY, stare down at the fire like they've never seen fire before…
Point to ponder ( Estee) : What is with Lakshya's obsessive need to save people from fires? KT, then that time when the outhouse caught fire on his birthday, and now Neev… Weird…
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Premlata is watching all this.. Inder comes there and is shocked.. Premlata asks him where he was.. Blah blah blah. Mrs Shah Sr reprimands him for not being here at such an important event…. She asks him where he was.. He discloses that he was at the hospital… She asks him why he went, even though they share no relationship anymore… Inder says that he cannot forget her and she is his first love… Mrs Shah Sr tells him to please keep this fact from Neev, or he will not marry Prachi…
I don't really get why…
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Neev comes and falls down in front of Prachi…
N: Prachi… Take care…. For me… We'll meet there, up in heaven…
His head rolls to the side… Is he dead? If only, coz that would mean an end to his stupid jokes. Prachi shakes him and screams at him to not leave her and come back and all that… He gets up and reveals he was joking. Oh ha ha. Very funny.
He then gets serious and tells her that "for a minute… I was scared… I didn't know what to do… I couldn't just leave you there.. And I couldn't take you up there with me…"
He hugs her… And I notice he doesn't have that gunshot wound anymore. Oh the miracles of life!
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Tulsi and Paro meet…
T: Here is your CD… Now you will know your secret…
P: Thanks… You don't what you have done for me… I wanted to tell you something… KT told me not to tell you… But I think you should know… I know who raped KT.. I saw him… It's not Eklavya, Tulsi… It is someone else…
Tulsi is shocked…
T: What are you saying?!!?
P: The truth…. He attacked KT again today…. But thank heavens I got there in time and saved her..
T: Not Eklavya….?? Who is it then?
P: I don't know his name.. But I have pointed him out to Damini… She will tell you…
T: You dunno what you have done for me… You have saved me from a sin!! I put the blame on Eklavya and I sent him to jail! Whoever the sinner is… Even if he is from my family.. I will punish him…
P: And I will punish this person… I will take your leave now…
Both of them hug… Paro leaves.. Shikhar looks disturbed.. Hiding in the bushes.. Perhaps he was bit by some insect in the bushes?
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Paro sees the CD… It shows Mayuri and Gayathri having a fight… Gayathri lunges to Mayuri's throat… Mayuri brings out a knife and stabs Gayathri… Gayathri dies on screen…
Paro screams Gayathri's name and collapses, crying hysterically…
************************************************************ ***************************************************
TOMORROW: (Scary recap man is back with his scary over dramatic voice)
In Kyunki : What will Tulsi do now. Wil lshe find out about Mayank's truth? Will Damini be blinded by love for her son? What will happen to Karan and Nandini's relationship and will Tanya agree to what is happenening?
I don't know dude. I don't know. Gawd.
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Comments: I am beginning to like that Adi guy from Kahaani. If Manthan is ever to be played by anyone but Amit Tandon, I want him to play him. He's hot and he has a very Manthan like vibe. Me likey!
Neev was irritating. Sorry to all Neev fans. But the guy's jokes were hell. They were either not funny, or he couldnt deliver them well. Either way, watching him was a real pain.
Note to Ekta and team: Fine. You wanna beat the competition. Have you ever thought of making better serials instead of LONGER EPISODES?! Maybe that would work huh? These two days were pure hell to update. I curse you. CURSE YOU.
Stars of the day: Riva Bubber, Akashdeep Seghal…
Overall rating: Only one NEW Lakshya scene. Where he saves Neev. But oh well. 7/10
