Things I Noticed - 03/04/10

• As Baji walks away, Dutta looks like he's in physical pain - like it's almost unbearable, knowing what he'd done (albeit unknowingly). *sigh* It's really refreshing to see a television hero who doesn't think it's his birthright to beat on women. I can count a handful of shows that still show the "hero" hitting the "heroine" and yet, at the end of the day the woman goes flying in his arms even without his apology. *gag* I love this show for being socially responsible in this case. 👏

• Seriously, the mavali only has one of two expressions on his face at all times - it's either a smirk/smile for when he's looking at Supriya or someone else OR it's an (attempted and miserably failed) angry expression for when he looks at Dutta. This man needs to learn to make use of the REST of his facial muscles too! 😆

• So Supriya remembers how mad Dutta got when she walked away last time? How? She wasn't even in the room to see him do that. Telepathic powers I suppose?! 😆 And THEN she gets scared - it's like she's thinking that he'd get just as mad again and hit the chair or worse, hit her, if she walked away again. She really doesn't know Bhao at all! And Bhao has been nothing but nice to her until SHE provokes him. Seriously, this woman is just soooo OFF when it comes to Bhao that it's actually annoying.

• Dutta is SUCH a cultured guy for a don - I mean it! The father stands up and tries to reach for Dutta's feet (I think, it looked like the father was about to hunch over a little - if not touch the feet then definitely a bow) and Dutta got so embarrassed at the thought of someone older than him giving him more respect than themselves. For a don, this guy really does not abuse his power. He's respectful of his elders, nice to his servants (unless he's drunk), treats everyone as equals, is patient all the time, is honest and once he commits to something he never backs down. *sigh* 😍

• Dutta looks at Supriya right after he gets done touching her father's feet, like he was saying "I'm getting ready to come to my seat now - brace yourself.". Poor guy! He has to send out "warning shots" in his own home - so as not to be insulted or pounced on again. 😆

• As soon as Dutta takes a seat besides Supriya, she moves away as though he's contagious! Seriously? You deserve your mavali boyfriend! You are no where close to being worthy of Dutta Patil. Sorry, I just hate people who act in such a "racist" manner towards someone else. 🤢

• As Supriya moves away, Dutta's reminded of everything that happened last night - how he was horrible towards Nakku in his drunken stupor. And the look he gives Supriya is such an accusing one - like he's saying "It's because of what YOU did that I ended being so uncivilized with Nakku. YOU and your arrogance had me turn into a monster. And now you dare to do it again?!". I am certain that if Aayi sahib hadn't called on him, he'd have stayed lost in what happened last night.

• Kaam kar raha tha?! Our Dutta Bhao lies?! *gasp* Unless he meant physical and psychological labor - I mean he WAS dragging Nakku around and yelling at her. Yeah, that's probably the "work" he was referring to! 😆

• "Nakku! Dutta k liye khana laga!" - *sigh* EVEN Aayi sahib knows whose right it is to serve Dutta... 😍

• When Kaala started talking about Nakku not being in the house, Leela looked like she didn't know where Kaala was going with it but Roops looked like she was fully aware of what her sister was up to - to me this feels like Roops is smarter than she lets on with her "cute na" charade. 🤔

• Kaala really enjoyed her self a lot today at the dinner table, didn't she?! Ever since Dutta walked in she was being entertained - first when Supriya's dad (unintentionally) embarrassed Dutta, then as Supriya acted like Dutta had the plague (disgusting behavior! 🤢) and then as she brought to everyone's notice how Nakku wasn't "here". Her play on words as she asked Baabi what happened because Nakku was just fine till last night - hinting that something must have happened last night. And then when Leela catches on and asks if Nakku got "hurt while working", it was like she'd struck gold. She really really enjoys manipulating people! But the final blow came when she discretely told Baabi about how Nakku was "naive" and wouldn't know what's best for her given the age that she's in. And how she hinted that "diseases of this age" are not to be trusted (alluding to Nakku being in love with Dutta) - even with a room full of people, she managed to get her "point" across to everyone she wanted (Baabi and Dutta alike) WITHOUT anyone noticing. I LOVE her as a villian!! 😃

• As soon as Kaala mentioned Nakku's name, she had Dutta's attention. And then with every passing word, it was like Dutta was falling deeper into the abyss of guilt and concern for Nakku (with his sisters providing the necessary push). His concern for Nakku's well being was evident on Dutta's face as was his guilt at having caused her distress. This really is going to torture him for a long time (as it should!).

• Sudarshan called Nakku "bhootni"? Has he looked in a mirror lately? Idiot. But I love how Kaala gave him that look to "shut up" - she's never been derogatory towards Nakku because of her skin color. Leela, Roops and Sudarshan have all taken their cheap shots - but never her! (Not that I recall at least). I appreciate her for that reason too. She doesn't play dirty, she plays clever.

• So I was trying to figure out why the sisters would be so happy in diverting Dutta's attention towards Nakku and here's why I think - if Dutta's left "occupied" with Nakku, he's going to have less time to mend his relationship with Supriya, which is what I think the evil trio wants. With Dutta being unavailable and Supriya already unhappy with the marraige, it will increase the chances of a misunderstanding - after all distance is the breeding ground for lack of communication. At least that's what I think... 🤔

• Kishore reminds Bhao to "eat his food" - but what I really felt he was saying was "Don't worry, whatever it is will work out!". And I loved how Bhao appreciated that sentiment and smiled back. *sigh* I want to see more of Kishore-Bhao relationship too! 😊

• What? So now Supriya has a problem with EATING around Dutta too?! SERIOUSLY?! What is that look to her mother supposed to mean? She is really getting on my nerves with her arrogance here - what makes her so much more better than the rest of the people at the dinner table that she can't even eat food with the man whose house she's staying in. And if she hates him so much she should have told him when he asked - she can tell him NOW too. But no, she'd much rather stay quiet and flaunt around her attitude. *Blekh*

• SETHJI!!!!! OMG! How I missed this kid! 😆

• Aww, Sethji gets scared of Dutta when he turns around to find him there. 🤗 Don't worry kid! He just looks aggressive, he doesn't bite though (unless he's drunk and then he might come close). 😆

• Omg! Who else thought that Dutta had a mischevious smile on his face as he walked up to Sethji - like he'd caught him doing something "wrong" and was now going to give him a hard time about it? I loved it!! It was very "innocent" and "childlike" of him. 😃

• But as soon as Nakku's name came up, Dutta was all business again... *sigh* He's feeling so guilty - but he should! He hit a girl!

• Up until Sethji told Dutta that Nakku was inside cleaning up the room he'd actually believed that she might be really "sick/hurt" because of what he did last night. But once Sethji told him how she wasn't REALLY sick, that's when he began to realize that she might just be avoiding him. At least, that's what I thought.

• Aww! The teddy bear's right there on the chair! 😳

• That has got to be one of the MOST flexible fan blades I have ever seen in my life! All she had to do was pull on it and it bend over?! 🤣

• So Dutta sees her cleaning the fan blade, knows that she's working with dust. And YET he goes and stands right behind her? What did he think would happen when she did exactly what she did - shake the dust off? I would pay to know what was going through his mind then! 🤣

• Aww, poor Nakku! She's mortified at having enveloped Dutta in a dust cloud... 😆

• Dutta gives Nakku a chance to step down and be comfortable before he lets any conversation begin... *sigh* True gentleman! 😍

• When Nakku realizes that there's a band-aid on her forehead, her hand automatically reaches for it. Till she realizes that Dutta's also right there and then she turns her head away from him, so as not to let him notice - not that it stopped our Dutta Bhao, who noticed it and was absolutely guilty over it. *sigh* I love how these two are so protective of each other, even if it's themselves that they need to protect the other from. 😍

• I LOVED LOVED LOVED how their conversation started! He asked her what happened and all she needed to say was "after last night". She didn't need to explain to him that she was staying away so as not to upset him - he understood. These two never did need words. But I'm glad they use them anyways, for the rest of us who are not so fluent in "eye talk"! 😆

• Once Nakku started talking about how she was responsible for everything that happened last night, it was like adding insult to injury as far as Dutta was concerned. Dutta was so disgusted by what he'd done that it looked like her taking the blame for it was unbearable for him. You could almost see him "fortify" with every word she spoke. Like he was trying not to let the words coming out of her mouth make it worst for him. He really cannot bear the thought of hurting a girl, let alone having one take the blame for it.

• A little thing I noticed - Dutta really does not leave any chance to come close to Nakku, does he? 😉 He comes and stands right next to her when he walks in. And then, as she turns around, he walks right up behind her. We knew he never felt the need to ask before touching her (nor does he need to) - now it's like he can't help but try to be near her too. In fact, when she walks away he asks her to "come here". *sigh*

• So I'm not going to deny that Nakku was "scared" around Dutta - first when he came right behind her and later when he asked her to come to him. But I think she wasn't scared of what he might DO to her, it was more like she was scared of how he might hurt her. He'd already said some pretty hurtful things to her last night and then thrown her at the door frame to conclude it. It's only natural she be a little apprehensive around him now. But I don't think she really thought that he would give her a beating. Just that if he goes "off" again, he might lose control in his rage and she was scared of that - because a livid Dutta can be really vicious if he wants to be. But it's just what I thought and I could be totally off here. 😆

• Lol, Dutta Bhao's way of making a girl feel at ease is yelling at her some more? That's interesting! 😆

• Dutta really CANNOT stand knowing that someone thinks that he MIGHT beat on women. He just CANNOT stand it. The thought enrages him and disgusts him - and I fiercely LOVE it! 😃

• Okay I might be seeing things here, but when Dutta said that he hasn't ever hit a woman and nor does he intend on, the look that Nakku gives him was like she was trying to say "Is THAT what you think I meant? That you would physically hit me?". But I could totally be seeing things here. 🤔

• I know Dutta said that Nakku wanted to know why Dutta did what he did, but really? If Dutta Patil did not want to tell someone something, it doesn't matter who else wanted what. So I am so sure that Dutta WANTED to tell Nakku what had caused his outburst. He he wanted to get it off his chest. Everyone close to him knew it but he couldn't talk to them about it - didn't like talking to them about it. So when he has finally found someone he could "talk" to, he wanted them to know the "Reason" (as we're going to call it for now) too.

• It's only natural that he would drag Nakku out like she's his property. *sigh* Why am I not surprised? These two show such authority on each other, it's unbelievable. And what's even more unbelievable is that the other person SUBMITS willingly. So it's not like they force themselves on each other - but rather are accepted with open arms.

• As Baji was waiting by the cars, I thought he was wondering if he'd said "too much" to Dutta a while ago. Like he was playing the conversation over and trying to decide if he went to far. Not because he was scared of Dutta, but much rather worried if he might have hurt him or been too harsh.

• When Dutta tells Nakku to sit in the car, I love how she glances at Baji for confirmation. His opinion obviously matters and she knew he'd be concerned. So it was almost like an "I'll be okay" look that she gave to Baji. *sigh* I LOVE their relationship! 😃

• Throughout the car ride, Nakku keeps looking over at Dutta to make sure he's okay - that he isn't over whelmed or too tormented. And Dutta keeps glancing over at Nakku as if trying to say "You'll have your answers soon enough - just wait...". Like I said, yin yang. Perfect for each other. 😍

• Once Dutta reached the "place" (I'm going to call the river bank that) it was like he had to prepare himself for what came next - when he stopped the car, he had to prepare himself before he turned to look at the place. But once he saw it, it was like he'd been send to a previous time. Like he was reliving all of what had happened there. During his walk from the car till the time he finally grabs onto Nakku's hand, it's like he's living something horrific and he'd rather not. And once he holds onto Nakku's hand, he pauses for a minute as if to brace himself to do what he was going to do next. Then he steps forward - with conviction and determination, because once he'd made up his mind there was no going back.

• As soon as Dutta stopped his car, Nakku knew something was wrong. When he stepped out of the car, she noticed how it was tormenting him. As he walked towards the stairs, she saw the reluctance in his steps - as though he really did not want to go near it but couldn't stop. And as he stared towards the water's edge she noticed he was reliving something from a long time ago - something that was causing him immense pain. Nakku was absolutely aware of his pain from the moment Dutta felt it. And I love that!
  

• Dutta was phenomenal as he talked about himself and the "place". He transitioned smoothly from disgust (for the "place") to reminiscent (when he talked about himself) to painful sarcasm (as he asks her if she doesn't believe him) to an almost heart wrenching cry (when he calls out "Dutta Bhao"). He was just PHENOMENAL! How he stares up into the sky for a few moments after he calls out to himself - like the pain of becoming Dutta Bhao was just too much to bear, as if he was asking the skys to just TAKE it all away. And then he turns around rejected, just like he knew he would. What followed was just pure pain - complete and utter pain, so much that it took his breath away. It was like he was robbed of his innocence and his dreams with such brutality that he could not BEAR to speak of it - he just couldn't. But the minute Nakku dared to praise the "place", his emotions burst forward - He "hated that place! HATED IT!" he said. And then came his viciousness, only for a brief while but it was there, when he talks about how she asked him to wish his pain "good bye" - like he was telling her "You have NO idea what you asked of me - none! If only it were that easy...". He asks her if she KNOWS what she talks of? If she knows what pain is? What he feels and how much it torments him? As though he WANTS her to contradict him - to tell him that she knows! To give him a reason to vent again. But when she doesn't he decides he wants to tell her everything. And then it's like he's reliving it all over again - only this time, in slow and painful detail. Absolutely painful. And totally brilliant acting by Mishal! Stand ovations are in order here... Really! 👏

In my opinion, today was a "resigned" show - it wasn't filled with raw emotion like the past three episodes (be it fear/disgust because of More, anger/anticipation because of Tasha or anger/remorse because of Tasha, again). This had more of a "resigned to fate" feel to it - a little angry with fate, a little hurt by it. But in the end just resigned to it. Or so I thought. 🤔
hey fivr... me actually thought today's episode had a lot of suppressed emotions.. barely restrained pain... that was simmering beneath the surface and waiting to come forth... but that's all my thinking.... 🤓

• As Baji walks away, Dutta looks like he's in physical pain - like it's almost unbearable, knowing what he'd done (albeit unknowingly). *sigh* It's really refreshing to see a television hero who doesn't think it's his birthright to beat on women. I can count a handful of shows that still show the "hero" hitting the "heroine" and yet, at the end of the day the woman goes flying in his arms even without his apology. *gag* I love this show for being socially responsible in this case. 👏

I agree... in spite of being a don/gangster/whatever 😆 Dutta knows that raising his hands on a lady is so not right.... hats off for the sentiments, creatives... 👏

• Seriously, the mavali only has one of two expressions on his face at all times - it's either a smirk/smile for when he's looking at Supriya or someone else OR it's an (attempted and miserably failed) angry expression for when he looks at Dutta. This man needs to learn to make use of the REST of his facial muscles too! 😆

Really? I thought his second expression looked so constipated..... 🤔 😆😆

• So Supriya remembers how mad Dutta got when she walked away last time? How? She wasn't even in the room to see him do that. Telepathic powers I suppose?! 😆 And THEN she gets scared - it's like she's thinking that he'd get just as mad again and hit the chair or worse, hit her, if she walked away again. She really doesn't know Bhao at all! And Bhao has been nothing but nice to her until SHE provokes him. Seriously, this woman is just soooo OFF when it comes to Bhao that it's actually annoying.

Seriously! That was the same thing that ran through my mind when I watched the scene... maybe she was hiding behind that big pillar and was spying on what Dutta would do at her insolent behavior... 😆😆😆😆 did I tell I hate her? she doesn't look meek or timid or vulnerable... she seems downright idiotic and annoying and spineless.... 😡😡😡

• Dutta is SUCH a cultured guy for a don - I mean it! The father stands up and tries to reach for Dutta's feet (I think, it looked like the father was about to hunch over a little - if not touch the feet then definitely a bow) and Dutta got so embarrassed at the thought of someone older than him giving him more respect than themselves. For a don, this guy really does not abuse his power. He's respectful of his elders, nice to his servants (unless he's drunk), treats everyone as equals, is patient all the time, is honest and once he commits to something he never backs down. *sigh* 😍

Uff mein mar jawa.... here is a guy who falls at the feet of the man whose daughter is giving him hell by not opening her mouth..... what culture.... what manners... 👏👏

• Dutta looks at Supriya right after he gets done touching her father's feet, like he was saying "I'm getting ready to come to my seat now - brace yourself.". Poor guy! He has to send out "warning shots" in his own home - so as not to be insulted or pounced on again. 😆

you know I turn my face away whenever Supriya is shown... so I guess I didnt notice this part... 😆😆

• As soon as Dutta takes a seat besides Supriya, she moves away as though he's contagious! Seriously? You deserve your mavali boyfriend! You are no where close to being worthy of Dutta Patil. Sorry, I just hate people who act in such a "racist" manner towards someone else. 🤢

When I thought she couldnt get any worse she goes to defy my belief... treating Dutta like the plague and moving away from him.... 😡😡😡 seriously man... I dont know what Aayi Sahib saw in her.... I blame Dutta now... why oh why did he stare at her even unintentionally at that friend's wedding? where was I at that time????? 😆😆😆😆

• As Supriya moves away, Dutta's reminded of everything that happened last night - how he was horrible towards Nakku in his drunken stupor. And the look he gives Supriya is such an accusing one - like he's saying "It's because of what YOU did that I ended being so uncivilized with Nakku. YOU and your arrogance had me turn into a monster. And now you dare to do it again?!". I am certain that if Aayi sahib hadn't called on him, he'd have stayed lost in what happened last night.

• Kaam kar raha tha?! Our Dutta Bhao lies?! *gasp* Unless he meant physical and psychological labor - I mean he WAS dragging Nakku around and yelling at her. Yeah, that's probably the "work" he was referring to! 😆

Getting stone-drunk was his work..... 😆😆

• "Nakku! Dutta k liye khana laga!" - *sigh* EVEN Aayi sahib knows whose right it is to serve Dutta... 😍 good thing she has identified her true daughter in law... 😉
  

• When Kaala started talking about Nakku not being in the house, Leela looked like she didn't know where Kaala was going with it but Roops looked like she was fully aware of what her sister was up to - to me this feels like Roops is smarter than she lets on with her "cute na" charade. 🤔

I reserve my comments on Roopa until they show clearly whats up with her... why does she act sincere in one episode and evil in the next..... 😕😕

• Kaala really enjoyed her self a lot today at the dinner table, didn't she?! Ever since Dutta walked in she was being entertained - first when Supriya's dad (unintentionally) embarrassed Dutta, then as Supriya acted like Dutta had the plague (disgusting behavior! 🤢) and then as she brought to everyone's notice how Nakku wasn't "here". Her play on words as she asked Baabi what happened because Nakku was just fine till last night - hinting that something must have happened last night. And then when Leela catches on and asks if Nakku got "hurt while working", it was like she'd struck gold. She really really enjoys manipulating people! But the final blow came when she discretely told Baabi about how Nakku was "naive" and wouldn't know what's best for her given the age that she's in. And how she hinted that "diseases of this age" are not to be trusted (alluding to Nakku being in love with Dutta) - even with a room full of people, she managed to get her "point" across to everyone she wanted (Baabi and Dutta alike) WITHOUT anyone noticing. I LOVE her as a villian!! 😃

she is amazing I must say..... so effortlessly she manages to bring the evilness to her character.. and when Dutta was walking towards his chair (which unfortunately was next to Supriya's 🤢) did you notice a feeling of anticipation on kala's face... like she was expecting some fireworks just like the previous night.... and when she didnt see any visible reaction from Dutta at Supriya's attitude, she decided to spread the smoke and brought in Naku.....

• As soon as Kaala mentioned Nakku's name, she had Dutta's attention. And then with every passing word, it was like Dutta was falling deeper into the abyss of guilt and concern for Nakku (with his sisters providing the necessary push). His concern for Nakku's well being was evident on Dutta's face as was his guilt at having caused her distress. This really is going to torture him for a long time (as it should!).

sigh.... a guy who is remorseful.... is dutta for sale? 😆😆😆

• Sudarshan called Nakku "bhootni"? Has he looked in a mirror lately? Idiot. But I love how Kaala gave him that look to "shut up" - she's never been derogatory towards Nakku because of her skin color. Leela, Roops and Sudarshan have all taken their cheap shots - but never her! (Not that I recall at least). I appreciate her for that reason too. She doesn't play dirty, she plays clever.

• So I was trying to figure out why the sisters would be so happy in diverting Dutta's attention towards Nakku and here's why I think - if Dutta's left "occupied" with Nakku, he's going to have less time to mend his relationship with Supriya, which is what I think the evil trio wants. With Dutta being unavailable and Supriya already unhappy with the marraige, it will increase the chances of a misunderstanding - after all distance is the breeding ground for lack of communication. At least that's what I think... 🤔

methinks the trio have a deeper plan than just keeping Dutta occupied with Naku... they are indeed trying to turn Dutta's attention towards Naku by talking of her "chot"... but maybe they are doing this so that Dutta spends more time with Naku (they knew he will want to appease his guilt) and that Aayi sahab should come to know of it... and when Supriya maharani runs away (I am waiting for that day! 🤢) Aayi sahab will somehow convince Dutta to get married to Naku since he "stared" at her and "talked" to her (seriously whats with this Aayi... 😕) and the trio thinks Naku will never say no to the proposal since she is already in love with Dutta and that Dutta will never give her a second glance since she is ugly-looking... this way there can never be a waaris for Dutta and their kids can get everything that Dutta earned with his sweat and blood... 🤢🤢🤢🤢 (disclaimer - this is purely my imagination though.... 😆😆😆)

• Kishore reminds Bhao to "eat his food" - but what I really felt he was saying was "Don't worry, whatever it is will work out!". And I loved how Bhao appreciated that sentiment and smiled back. *sigh* I want to see more of Kishore-Bhao relationship too! 😊

I just loved the small smile that Dutta gave to acknowledge Kishore.... it was the first time I saw Dutta smile at a family member (including Aayi sahab!) 😃

• What? So now Supriya has a problem with EATING around Dutta too?! SERIOUSLY?! What is that look to her mother supposed to mean? She is really getting on my nerves with her arrogance here - what makes her so much more better than the rest of the people at the dinner table that she can't even eat food with the man whose house she's staying in. And if she hates him so much she should have told him when he asked - she can tell him NOW too. But no, she'd much rather stay quiet and flaunt around her attitude. *Blekh*

$%%&%*%(&*)(*()*#@!#%$%& - you get the drift here I suppose... 😆😆😆

• SETHJI!!!!! OMG! How I missed this kid! 😆

• Aww, Sethji gets scared of Dutta when he turns around to find him there. 🤗 Don't worry kid! He just looks aggressive, he doesn't bite though (unless he's drunk and then he might come close). 😆

guarding his thaayi.... 😆😆😆 but Dutta Bhao simply walked in and walkd out with his possession... so much for guarding kid..... 😆😆 but ofcourse who is he to come in between Dutta and his Naku.... 😍

• Omg! Who else thought that Dutta had a mischevious smile on his face as he walked up to Sethji - like he'd caught him doing something "wrong" and was now going to give him a hard time about it? I loved it!! It was very "innocent" and "childlike" of him. 😃

• But as soon as Nakku's name came up, Dutta was all business again... *sigh* He's feeling so guilty - but he should! He hit a girl!

• Up until Sethji told Dutta that Nakku was inside cleaning up the room he'd actually believed that she might be really "sick/hurt" because of what he did last night. But once Sethji told him how she wasn't REALLY sick, that's when he began to realize that she might just be avoiding him. At least, that's what I thought.

yeah... it looked like he dropped by to ask about her health after what he heard at the breakfast table... but once he realized that Naku was actually avoiding the house he knew he had to take care of the issue right away... and straight in he walks... 😍

• Aww! The teddy bear's right there on the chair! 😳

• That has got to be one of the MOST flexible fan blades I have ever seen in my life! All she had to do was pull on it and it bend over?! 🤣

• So Dutta sees her cleaning the fan blade, knows that she's working with dust. And YET he goes and stands right behind her? What did he think would happen when she did exactly what she did - shake the dust off? I would pay to know what was going through his mind then! 🤣

OMG Dutta..... the fans in your house have so much dust??? 😲😲 and you have a horde of servants at home..... 🤔 😆😆

• Aww, poor Nakku! She's mortified at having enveloped Dutta in a dust cloud... 😆

• Dutta gives Nakku a chance to step down and be comfortable before he lets any conversation begin... *sigh* True gentleman! 😍

• When Nakku realizes that there's a band-aid on her forehead, her hand automatically reaches for it. Till she realizes that Dutta's also right there and then she turns her head away from him, so as not to let him notice - not that it stopped our Dutta Bhao, who noticed it and was absolutely guilty over it. *sigh* I love how these two are so protective of each other, even it's themselves that they need to protect the other from. 😍 enough said about them.... its almost midnight, I have a big presentation at work tomorrow early in the day and here I am watching replays of the episode and drooling over the duo and their understanding and chemistry... sigh... there is no hope for me Dutta.... except you of course... 😉😉 😆😆😆
  

• I LOVED LOVED LOVED how their conversation started! He asked her what happened and all she needed to say was "after last night". She didn't need to explain to him that she was staying away so as not to upset him - he understood. These two never did need words. But I'm glad they use them anyways, for the rest of us who are not so fluent in "eye talk"! 😆

and did you notice how brutally honest she was with him? yday when Babi asked her she tried lying that she slipped etc etc... but when Dutta asked she honestly told him it was due to the previous night.... she could have easily told him that it was nothing and stuff... but it was like she could not help herself from speaking only the truth in front of him.... 😍 (I hope she keeps up this honesty with him.... 😃)

• Once Nakku started talking about how she was responsible for everything that happened last night, it was like adding insult to injury as far as Dutta was concerned. Dutta was so disgusted by what he'd done that it looked like her taking the blame for it was unbearable for him. You could almost see him "fortify" with every word she spoke. Like he was trying not to let the words coming out of her mouth make it worst for him. He really cannot bear the thought of hurting a girl, let alone having one take the blame for it.

• A little thing I noticed - Dutta really does not leave any chance to come close to Nakku, does he? 😉 He comes and stands right next to her when he walks in. And then, as she turns around, he walks right up behind her. We knew he never felt the need to ask before touching her (nor does he need to) - now it's like he can't help but try to be near her too. In fact, when she walks away he asks her to "come here". *sigh*

**brain melts** gosh... I love the screen presence of these two.... 😍 Dutta standing so close behind Naku and when she turns around, a moment of shock and then taking baby steps backward.... and then he extends his hand and calls her "idhar aa" (though I wonder why he called her closer.... what? really.... 😕 ok.. blame it on my brain that ahs gone on standby already... 😆😆😆) and ofcourse he grabs her hand and pulls her out.... 😍

• So I'm not going to deny that Nakku was "scared" around Dutta - first when he came right behind her and later when he asked her to come to him. But I think she wasn't scared of what he might DO to her, it was more like she was scared of how he might hurt her. He'd already said some pretty hurtful things to her last night and then thrown her at the door frame to conclude it. It's only natural she be a little apprehensive around him now. But I don't think she really thought that he would give her a beating. Just that if he goes "off" again, he might lose control in his rage and she was scared of that - because a livid Dutta can be really vicious if he wants to be. But it's just what I thought and I could be totally off here. 😆

I agree... she really did look afraid and scared.... Dutta managed to scare even our sherni .... 😆😆

• Lol, Dutta Bhao's way of making a girl feel at ease is yelling at her some more? That's interesting! 😆 ohh.. I burst out laughing when Dutta yelled.... so much for patiently manaofying her,.... 😆😆😆
  

• Dutta really CANNOT stand knowing that someone thinks that he MIGHT beat on women. He just CANNOT stand it. The thought enrages him and disgusts him - and I fiercely LOVE it! 😃

• Okay I might be seeing things here, but when Dutta said that he hasn't ever hit a woman and nor does he intend on, the look that Nakku gives him was like she was trying to say "Is THAT what you think I meant? That you would physically hit me?". But I could totally be seeing things here. 🤔

• I know Dutta said that Nakku wanted to know why Dutta did what he did, but really? If Dutta Patil did not want to tell someone something, it doesn't matter who else wanted what. So I am so sure that Dutta WANTED to tell Nakku what had caused his outburst. He he wanted to get it off his chest. Everyone close to him knew it but he couldn't talk to them about it - didn't like talking to them about it. So when he has finally found someone he could "talk" to, he wanted them to know the "Reason" (as we're going to call it for now) too.

Umm... I might be a bit dense here or it is my half0asleep brain but when did Naku ask Dutta the reason behind his pain???? 😕 of course I am happy he is sharing it with her and lightening his burden but when did she want to know his pain? didnt she only advise him on the perils of drinking 😆 and then tried to create reasons for Supriya's horrendous behavior? when did she ask him why he became like this.... 🤔

• It's only natural that he would drag Nakku out like she's his property. *sigh* Why am I not surprised? These two show such authority on each other, it's unbelievable. And what's even more unbelievable is that the other person SUBMITS willingly. So it's not like they force themselves on each other - but rather are accepted with open arms.

**off to Dutta land.... ** oh I really want a guy like Dutta... 😆😆

• As Baji was waiting by the cars, I thought he was wondering if he'd said "too much" to Dutta a while ago. Like he was playing the conversation over and trying to decide if he went to far. Not because he was scared of Dutta, but much rather worried if he might have hurt him or been too harsh.

his restless walk here and there just showed his concern for Dutta as well as Naku.... 😃

• When Dutta tells Nakku to sit in the car, I love how she glances at Baji for confirmation. His opinion obviously matters and she knew he'd be concerned. So it was almost like an "I'll be okay" look that she gave to Baji. *sigh* I LOVE their relationship! 😃

• Throughout the car ride, Nakku keeps looking over at Dutta to make sure he's okay - that he isn't over whelmed or too tormented. And Dutta keeps glancing over at Nakku as if trying to say "You'll have your answers soon enough - just wait...". Like I said, yin yang. Perfect for each other. 😍

"Apni seat belt pehno" - Dutta Bhao is so concerned for her safety.... 😍 and how did Naku know how to wear a seatbelt? wasnt she working as a maid before they escaped? ok ok.. dont look at me weirdly but I was so expecing her to fumble with it and Dutta helping her by pushing her hands away brusquely and doing it for her..... 😍

• Once Dutta reached the "place" (I'm going to call the river bank that) it was like he had to prepare himself for what came next - when he stopped the car, he had to prepare himself before he turned to look at the place. But once he saw it, it was like he'd been send to a previous time. Like he was reliving all of what had happened there. During his walk from the car till the time he finally grabs onto Nakku's hand, it's like he's living something horrific and he'd rather not. And once he holds onto Nakku's hand, he pauses for a minute as if to brace himself to do what he was going to do next. Then he steps forward - with conviction and determination, because once he'd made up his mind there was no going back.

Dutta actually looked as if he has gone into his past in that scene.... 👏

• As soon as Dutta stopped his car, Nakku knew something was wrong. When he stepped out of the car, she noticed how it was tormenting him. As he walked towards the stairs, she saw the reluctance in his steps - as though he really did not want to go near it but couldn't stop. And as he stared towards the water's edge she noticed he was reliving something from a long time ago - something that was causing him immense pain. Nakku was absolutely aware of his pain from the moment Dutta felt it. And I love that!
  

oh these two dont need any words... they have no use for it.... they can understand the other's thoughts and their eyes speak all they need.... 😍

• Dutta was phenomenal as he talked about himself and the "place". He transitioned smoothly from disgust (for the "place") to reminiscent (when he talked about himself) to painful sarcasm (as he asks her if she doesn't believe him) to an almost heart wrenching cry (when he calls out "Dutta Bhao"). He was just PHENOMENAL! How he stares up into the sky for a few moments after he calls out to himself - like the pain of becoming Dutta Bhao was just too much to bear, as if he was asking the skys to just TAKE it all away. And then he turns around rejected, just like he knew he would. What followed was just pure pain - complete and utter pain, so much that it took his breath away. It was like he was robbed of his innocence and his dreams with such brutality that he could not BEAR to speak of it - he just couldn't. But the minute Nakku dared to praise the "place", his emotions burst forward - He "hated that place! HATED IT!" he said. And then came his viciousness, only for a brief while but it was there, when he talks about how she asked him to wish his pain "good bye" - like he was telling her "You have NO idea what you asked of me - none! If only it were that easy...". He asks her if she KNOWS what she talks of? If she knows what pain is? What he feels and how much it torments him? As though he WANTS her to contradict him - to tell him that she knows! To give him a reason to vent again. But when she doesn't he decides he wants to tell her everything. And then it's like he's reliving it all over again - only this time, in slow and painful detail. Absolutely painful. And totally brilliant acting by Mishal! Stand ovations are in order here... Really! 👏

I agree,.... Mishal was simply superb here..... 😍 the pain inside an intense man like Dutta was just waiting to pour out and I am so glad he decided to confide in Naku... he looked like he was reliving some horrible experience every second in that dirty-murky lake area... 😆 really looking forward to tomorrow.... hats off to mishal once again.... 👏👏

PS: I am just loving how Dutta uses "tum" to address Naku when he is all formal and conscious with her andhe reverts to "tu" when he is himself with her.... this maybe something unintentional but the hopeless romantic in me wants to believe this... 😆😆

Sorry that this TIN got so long and took me a while to post. I didn't realize how much I had to say until I actually started saying it. 😆

In my opinion, today was a "resigned" show - it wasn't filled with raw emotion like the past three episodes (be it fear/disgust because of More, anger/anticipation because of Tasha or anger/remorse because of Tasha, again). This had more of a "resigned to fate" feel to it - a little angry with fate, a little hurt by it. But in the end just resigned to it. Or so I thought. 🤔

• As Baji walks away, Dutta looks like he's in physical pain - like it's almost unbearable, knowing what he'd done (albeit unknowingly). *sigh* It's really refreshing to see a television hero who doesn't think it's his birthright to beat on women. I can count a handful of shows that still show the "hero" hitting the "heroine" and yet, at the end of the day the woman goes flying in his arms even without his apology. *gag* I love this show for being socially responsible in this case. 👏agree with u i hate men who hit women and r unapologetic about it⭐️

• Seriously, the mavali only has one of two expressions on his face at all times - it's either a smirk/smile for when he's looking at Supriya or someone else OR it's an (attempted and miserably failed) angry expression for when he looks at Dutta. This man needs to learn to make use of the REST of his facial muscles too! 😆 its too late to learn anything now just take away ur girlfriend from here asap😡

• So Supriya remembers how mad Dutta got when she walked away last time? How? She wasn't even in the room to see him do that. Telepathic powers I suppose?! 😆 And THEN she gets scared - it's like she's thinking that he'd get just as mad again and hit the chair or worse, hit her, if she walked away again. She really doesn't know Bhao at all! And Bhao has been nothing but nice to her until SHE provokes him. Seriously, this woman is just soooo OFF when it comes to Bhao that it's actually annoying.

• Dutta is SUCH a cultured guy for a don - I mean it! The father stands up and tries to reach for Dutta's feet (I think, it looked like the father was about to hunch over a little - if not touch the feet then definitely a bow) and Dutta got so embarrassed at the thought of someone older than him giving him more respect than themselves. For a don, this guy really does not abuse his power. He's respectful of his elders, nice to his servants (unless he's drunk), treats everyoneas equals, is patient all the time, is honest and once he commits to something he never backs down. *sigh* 😍learn some manners supriya , from dutta he still respects ur father after getting insulted by u

• Dutta looks at Supriya right after he gets done touching her father's feet, like he was saying "I'm getting ready to come to my seat now - brace yourself.". Poor guy! He has to send out "warning shots" in his own home - so as not to be insulted or pounced on again. 😆itit was like i think u wont commit the same mistake again

• As soon as Dutta takes a seat besides Supriya, she moves away as though he's contagious! Seriously? You deserve your mavali boyfriend! You are no where close to being worthy of Dutta Patil. Sorry, I just hate people who act in such a "racist" manner towards someone else. 🤢she is disgusting all i can say😡

• As Supriya moves away, Dutta's reminded of everything that happened last night - how he was horrible towards Nakku in his drunken stupor. And the look he gives Supriya is such an accusing one - like he's saying "It's because of what YOU did that I ended being so uncivilized with Nakku. YOU and your arrogance had me turn into a monster. And now you dare to do it again?!". I am certain that if Aayi sahib hadn't called on him, he'd have stayed lost in what happened last night. agreed

• Kaam kar raha tha?! Our Dutta Bhao lies?! *gasp* Unless he meant physical and psychological labor - I mean he WAS dragging Nakku around and yelling at her. Yeah, that's probably the "work" he was referring to! 😆

• "Nakku! Dutta k liye khana laga!" - *sigh* EVEN Aayi sahib knows whose right it is to serve Dutta... 😍

• When Kaala started talking about Nakku not being in the house, Leela looked like she didn't know where Kaala was going with it but Roops looked like she was fully aware of what her sister was up to - to me this feels like Roops is smarter than she lets on with her "cute na" charade. 🤔

• Kaala really enjoyed her self a lot today at the dinner table, didn't she?! Ever since Dutta walked in she was being entertained - first when Supriya's dad (unintentionally) embarrassed Dutta, then as Supriya acted like Dutta had the plague (disgusting behavior! 🤢) and then as she brought to everyone's notice how Nakku wasn't "here". Her play on words as she asked Baabi what happened because Nakku was just fine till last night - hinting that something must have happened last night. And then when Leela catches on and asks if Nakku got "hurt while working", it was like she'd struck gold. She really really enjoys manipulating people! But the final blow came when she discretely told Baabi about how Nakku was "naive" and wouldn't know what's best for her given the age that she's in. And how she hinted that "diseases of this age" are not to be trusted (alluding to Nakku being in love with Dutta) - even with a room full of people, she managed to get her "point" across to everyone she wanted (Baabi and Dutta alike) WITHOUT anyone noticing. I LOVE her as a villian!! 😃

• As soon as Kaala mentioned Nakku's name, she had Dutta's attention. And then with every passing word, it was like Dutta was falling deeper into the abyss of guilt and concern for Nakku (with his sisters providing the necessary push). His concern for Nakku's well being was evident on Dutta's face as was his guilt at having caused her distress. This really is going to torture him for a long time (as it should!). i thought he would apologise immediately after bajji made him realize his mistake

• Sudarshan called Nakku "bhootni"? Has he looked in a mirror lately? Idiot. But I love how Kaala gave him that look to "shut up" - she's never been derogatory towards Nakku because of her skin color. Leela, Roops and Sudarshan have all taken their cheap shots - but never her! (Not that I recall at least). I appreciate her for that reason too. She doesn't play dirty, she plays clever. so far she does

• So I was trying to figure out why the sisters would be so happy in diverting Dutta's attention towards Nakku and here's why I think - if Dutta's left "occupied" with Nakku, he's going to have less time to mend his relationship with Supriya, which is what I think the evil trio wants. With Dutta being unavailable and Supriya already unhappy with the marraige, it will increase the chances of a misunderstanding - after all distance is the breeding ground for lack of communication. At least that's what I think... 🤔

• Kishore reminds Bhao to "eat his food" - but what I really felt he was saying was "Don't worry, whatever it is will work out!". And I loved how Bhao appreciated that sentiment and smiled back. *sigh* I want to see more of Kishore-Bhao relationship too! 😊hes a nice man

• What? So now Supriya has a problem with EATING around Dutta too?! SERIOUSLY?! What is that look to her mother supposed to mean? She is really getting on my nerves with her arrogance here - what makes her so much more better than the rest of the people at the dinner table that she can't even eat food with the man whose house she's staying in. And if she hates him so much she should have told him when he asked - she can tell him NOW too. But no, she'd much rather stay quiet and flaunt around her attitude. *Blekh*

• SETHJI!!!!! OMG! How I missed this kid! 😆

• Aww, Sethji gets scared of Dutta when he turns around to find him there. 🤗 Don't worry kid! He just looks aggressive, he doesn't bite though (unless he's drunk and then he might come close). 😆even then he doesnt bite he roars which is amazing

• Omg! Who else thought that Dutta had a mischevious smile on his face as he walked up to Sethji - like he'd caught him doing something "wrong" and was now going to give him a hard time about it? I loved it!! It was very "innocent" and "childlike" of him. 😃i thought so , hes always like this with sethji so sweet

• But as soon as Nakku's name came up, Dutta was all business again... *sigh* He's feeling so guilty - but he should! He hit a girl!

• Up until Sethji told Dutta that Nakku was inside cleaning up the room he'd actually believed that she might be really "sick/hurt" because of what he did last night. But once Sethji told him how she wasn't REALLY sick, that's when he began to realize that she might just be avoiding him. At least, that's what I thought.

• Aww! The teddy bear's right there on the chair! 😳

• That has got to be one of the MOST flexible fan blades I have ever seen in my life! All she had to do was pull on it and it bend over?! 🤣

• So Dutta sees her cleaning the fan blade, knows that she's working with dust. And YET he goes and stands right behind her? What did he think would happen when she did exactly what she did - shake the dust off? I would pay to know what was going through his mind then! 🤣that she may loose balance and we may have the opportunity of seeing him catching her , how filmy , glad it didnot happen

• Aww, poor Nakku! She's mortified at having enveloped Dutta in a dust cloud... 😆

• Dutta gives Nakku a chance to step down and be comfortable before he lets any conversation begin... *sigh* True gentleman! 😍as always

• When Nakku realizes that there's a band-aid on her forehead, her hand automatically reaches for it. Till she realizes that Dutta's also right there and then she turns her head away from him, so as not to let him notice - not that it stopped our Dutta Bhao, who noticed it and was absolutely guilty over it. *sigh* I love how these two are so protective of each other, even it's themselves that they need to protect the other from. 😍

• I LOVED LOVED LOVED how their conversation started! He asked her what happened and all she needed to say was "after last night". She didn't need to explain to him that she was staying away so as not to upset him - he understood. These two never did need words. But I'm glad they use them anyways, for the rest of us who are not so fluent in "eye talk"! 😆ya love to see dutta speaking

• Once Nakku started talking about how she was responsible for everything that happened last night, it was like adding insult to injury as far as Dutta was concerned. Dutta was so disgusted by what he'd done that it looked like her taking the blame for it was unbearable for him. You could almost see him "fortify" with every word she spoke. Like he was trying not to let the words coming out of her mouth make it worst for him. He really cannot bear the thought of hurting a girl, let alone having one take the blame for it.

• A little thing I noticed - Dutta really does not leave any chance to come close to Nakku, does he? 😉 both are the same , she also never misses a chance to hold on to him i still remember the kick in the last episode😉He comes and stands right next to her when he walks in. And then, as she turns around, he walks right up behind her. We knew he never felt the need to ask before touching her (nor does he need to) - now it's like he can't help but try to be near her too. In fact, when she walks away he asks her to "come here". *sigh*

• So I'm not going to deny that Nakku was "scared" around Dutta - first when he came right behind her and later when he asked her to come to him. But I think she wasn't scared of what he might DO to her, it was more like she was scared of how he might hurt her. He'd already said some pretty hurtful things to her last night and then thrown her at the door frame to conclude it. It's only natural she be a little apprehensive around him now. But I don't think she really thought that he would give her a beating. Just that if he goes "off" again, he might lose control in his rage and she was scared of that - because a livid Dutta can be really vicious if he wants to be. But it's just what I thought and I could be totally off here. 😆

• Lol, Dutta Bhao's way of making a girl feel at ease is yelling at her some more? That's interesting! 😆

How he stares up into the sky for a few moments after he calls out to himself - like the pain of becoming Dutta Bhao was just too much to bear, amazing voice , great portrayal of emotions he is simply outstanding when it comes to serious scenes never over the topas if he was asking the skys to just TAKE it all away. And then he turns around rejected, just like he knew he would. What followed was just pure pain - complete and utter pain, so much that it took his breath away.
