D&N: Eternal Love Story - 9th Aug...start voting

Hey Guys,

For KTB Precap, the winner is ltl_fan, with 18 votes!😲 OMG! Broke the previous record of 15 votes! Way to go Ruby!!!

So, what was Dutta thinking here?

"Yeh Nakku kab se itni tez chalne laggi hai? -Woh toh hamesha ek tortoise ke tarha chalti hai" - ltl_fan 👏👏👏⭐️

When Dutta returns to his mansion, he was suffering from mixed feelings - humilation of being played by Anna and his goons, Ashamed for letting Naku being kidnapped under his nose, pain from loosing his love and despair at not being able to convey his feelings to her. 😭😭...This hiked the anger inside him, aggravated it 😡😡 and he hissed, sissed and roared - "Anna ki antadiyaan nikal ke, ussi ke kutoan ko khilaoonga mein" (Such was his devotion to his love that he even investigated on Anna's pets! 😛😉😆😆)

He refuses to take anyone's support because he remembers the humiliation of how Anna diddled with him by offering hand and pulling it off! When Babi asks about Naku's whereabouts, he turns his face out of anger, pain and embarrassment. How was he supposed to face Babi and tell her that Naku was kidnapped right under his nose and he, her hubby and the mighty DON of the town couldn't do anything! This only aggravated his aggression! He sibilates at Sethji that "Kuch nahi hoga teri Taayi ko". Enough was enough and now he would fulfill his responsibility!

Kala should be an advocate, skilled at wrapping the truth and showing a false picture. Kala tries instigating the old wounds, wounds that Dutta had digged deep inside him, which were in a healing process. She freshens up his wounds, reminds him of Naku's betrayal, and shows him the wedding snaps of Sups and BG ' a result of that betrayal and an additional fake letter! Yet again, Dutta gets into a state of extreme distress and suffers immensely. We realized today that the wound had not yet healed and hence, it was easy for Kala to make him live the whole betrayal again! Dutta suffers and Kala exhilarates. Dutta fights between kala's words and Babi's confession of her daughter's love for him. He dwells among Jagtap's words of love, Jungle experience and Naku's innocence but then he gets one more jolt ' a new fake letter! His inner torment increases. He fights, fight and fights.

Teri dosti ki duhai sunoon
Ya teri bewaafai ki daastaan
Kiss oar jaake giroon
Mere dil ki gehraayi ya dimaag ki karistaan!

Dutta was back into the world of deceit, fraud and lies, the world that he wanted to run away from, the world he had become scared of after the calm, serene Jungle experience, Will he be able to fight it back with what he learnt in his Jungle episode, or would Dutta return back to pavilion?

Kala's words resonate in his mind! Was Naku worth this war? He was struggling between Kala's evil mind and Babi's pleading eyes, between his new found realization of love and the "truth" of Naku's betrayal presented to him, between Jagtap's words and his insecurity. Which side wuld take the trophy in the end?

Dutta drops his gun, Has Kala's evil plan won or was it a gesture to challenge Anna, unarmed (Nihatta)? If it was the latter, was it driven by love or by responsibility that a "citizen" of his territory was kidnapped right under his nose? Tomorrow's episode would quench our torment! 😭

Last note:Today, I grieved for Dutta and with Dutta. He might be the champ in his profession but is still a child in his heart, who cries for love, who still needs his Taayis and Aayis of the world but we know that with people like Kala around him, he badly needs an influence like Naku and Jagtap's dyeing wisdom to move him forward in his life. A much needed awakening in Dutta's e-LS!

Okay, one liner, will read the rest later with more time:

Dutta: "Kala, move away. Can't you see that Miss DD is about to take a snap? I'm trying to pose cool and manly to impress Naku later with the pic and you're ruining it."

"Taayi mujhe ANTARIYA nikalne ki practice karni hai - Kya appe kar sakta hoon?"

Dutta singing: "So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye

Oh, Kala, can't do this to me, Kala

Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here" *

*Lines: Queen (Bohemian Rhapsody- a song, btw., I always relate with Dutta- or vice versa)
