Episode 156 Discussion: 28th Dec 2012 - Page 3

Sorry about the metaphors but I believe they get the message through. Who is going to be the coolheaded on of this duo? When one of them gets an idea, the other one inflames the desire already there- interesting times ahead for all those surrounding this couple.
I do feel sorry for the supporting characters though- Rishbala are so into each other, that it could be said that their selflessness is deep down quite selfish. Madhu wanted to reconcile RK with his mom for his mom's sake- now it's so yes the relationship is repaired, but also so she can have RK to herself. They plan to leave everything behind. Madhu understands this. I would argue that she is being unknowingly cruel to reunite Radha with her son at this time-won't the pain of a new seperation be even greater now that the path to healing has begun? And RK knows that Padmini and Malik love Madhu above everything-he wants them to have each other so there will be some comfort when Madhu is taken away by him. Selfless acts on the surface, but with a selfish undercurrent regarding possesion of each other.

Now that they have confessed there love, there is an attitude, unknowingly I feel, of "To hell with rest of the world, it's you and me."

Nice to see them actually physically more comfortable with each other. Let's hope it continues going forward and the track gets more passionate.

Not going to worry about the precap-things are never as they seem. Besides, will be too busy being dragged around by little sis😆

Come on that's completely fine. Else it would have been confusing for some.!

I am pretty sure everyone enjoyed the rishabalalicious episode. I loved the episode so much so that I was grinning like a fool non stop. They do make a very cute and adorable couple don't they? For some reason, as the episode kept progressing with too good to be true scenes I started having an eerie feeling about their relationship and the complacency with which both RK and Madhu talked about their love and their life far far away from the rest of the world. I wanted to put a kala tikka on both of them as they looked so much in love with a semblance of peace and a feeling that they both have learned to love and be loved in return.

We already know that there is Ballu and Dips who are dark, dangerous and detrimental to Rishabala relationship just lurking around the corner waiting for the right time and opportunity. Why do I have a feeling that this episode has set the stage for some major heartbreak? I am actually fearful for these two and worried about how they are going to keep their promise of being there for each other and staying together forever.

During yesterday's episode Madhu mentioned to RK that she had thought about them leaving everyone behind and was worried a little as her parents would miss her but they will be able to take care of each other. So, Madhu has her mind set and will not go back on her words unless something catastrophic happens and if that involves her family. I was really surprised that she never questioned his intentions of why he wanted to leave and felt that she should not be blindly trusting anyone regardless of who it is. I am not saying RK has bad intentions but as a wife just like she expressed her opinion about her parents' marriage she should have atleast asked him. She did n't but he himself questioned and answered her thinking that the question might have been in her mind. His response was quite convincing and I actually felt that it was reasonable considering what he has been through. I have to give it to the CVs for making the reason convincing enough and not making the viewers think about Dipali (atleast I did not think about her as the reason behind his wanting to leave) where he says that he took to the industry to get away from his past masking his hurt, pain and betrayal by living the life of a superstar who was worshiped by his innumerable number of fans. I loved the fact that he said he had replaced someone five years ago and it wouldn't be too long before someone replaces him and the only thing that is constant and irreplaceable in his life is her who is his and will always be his forever. I was kind of getting a wee bit scared when he had said that she will be his forever and the background score added to that sounded like an ultimatum from his end where he had marked her as his and hell will break loose if something was to happen to Madhu or if someone were to even touch her without his permission. Nonetheless, his admittance was sincere, genuine and heartfelt and we could see that in Madhu whose eyes were gleaming with pride on hearing what he had said about her. I wanted to reach out to him and give him a hug which Madhu did rightfully when he was yearning to hear her say no that he is not unlucky in love. Both DD and VD were brilliant in that scene and they were spot on with their emotions. The hug was well rounded and complete since he hugged her first and then squeezed her tight which makes me wonder if the CVs purposely made his previous hugs lackluster only to show that he had doubts in his mind then and now that his doubts are cleared he has no inhibitions in giving her a tight hug.

I have nothing to say about Radunce, once again she became a kathputli in Dips' hands. Her son spoke to her with so much concern and care yesterday while asking her to take care of her health and she takes Dip's words over her own belief that her son is slowly changing for good. She should have told Dips that she shouldn't worry about RK as she knows RK well who is still her son and will always be her son. Looks like she is the one with golgappa. What makes Dips an expert in human psychology? Dips is a shameless, disgusting woman who just finds some reason or the other to hang around RK who pretends that she never exists and every time she comes in front of him he finds new ways and means to belittle/insult her. I loved it how he squashed her like a bug with the remote analogy.

Whatever happened to him in the precap and the precap scared the living daylights out of me and confused me to the core about RK and his behavior? He is the same person who was stopping Madhu from saying that they were going to leave for good since Dips was standing outside their room and shamelessly listening to their conversation. He also tells her that he does not want anyone to know of their plans. What in blue hell might have happened in order for him to reveal Dips that everything is going to come to an end pretty soon and they are going to have a fresh start where he will be the perfect husband for Madhu? What was the need for him to tell Dips this and that too he was asking her to go and tell this to Radha. Just when I thought everything is going as per planned RK throws a googly where he was too complacent of the future while revealing most of it to Dips. Dips is not dumb like Radha and I am pretty sure she will put two and two together and might try to separate Madhu from him with a vengeance not that she is not trying to do that now and I am assuming that this is where she is going to team up with Ballu. Per the article, Ballu's failed attempt to shoot Madhu and Dips' failed attempts to break RK/Madhu might make them team up to wreak havoc in RK and Madhu's lives. Also, what the heck was in that letter that Madhu read and why RK is calling the lawyer? If it is for Shamini wedding then what made him think that Madhu is going to agree even before she admitted that he was right and agreed to go ahead with his plan. Was he that sure Madhu would come around or was he that confident that he could convince Madhu to agree to his plan? Or is it because he is planning on creating a living will for his assets where he would leave everything to his mother and the Bhatia's have to be forever good to her to milk some cash out of her? He would make sure that they don't harm her for money's sake or else the money would be donated to charitable institutions. This is just my two cents guess for why he was seeking a lawyer.

I love the fact that the romance comes looking very natural instead of contrived. There is something cute and sweet about it but not so much that it gives you diabetes. Both the characters stay in thier character while romancing. Another thing I like is the tongue-in-cheek comments about the OTT things in the show. Several comments have been made by RK on Madhu's habit to start waterworks at the drop of hat or the way he is too dramatic. Kudos to the writers of the show.

It is funny because just yesterday I was wondering that if RK was pretending to be good all along just so that he can break Madhu and today the precap seemed to hint that. He has once vowed to become her God and he is pretty close to having just that much influence on her. However I later realized that if RK was just stringing Madhu along for a ride, he would not have shared as much as he did. He did not have to share his pain, his thoughts ...just sticking to basics and confessing would have worked too. He should know by now that Madhu is too innocent to ever sense the difference if RK would have held himself back. She would have just assumed that it is a part of his personality.

Another loop was closed when RK today explained why he wanted to leave. I was happy with the explanation because I have always believed that RK is shown to be an extremely intelligent and grounded person. His wanting to leave to test Madhu would have butchered his character. This also tells me that he is smart enough to understand what is coming and is already preparing for it. Maybe subconciously for once...he wants to be the one who chooses to break up and turns his back on love (love of his fans) instead of other way around. This also gives me confidence that he is not planning to live his life as hermit in some jungle. From his perspective it will be a different life because he will not have the same adulation and he will not be making same amount of money. He is prepared for that eventuality and wants to make sure that so is Madhu. There also seems to be no timeline to his plan...my guess is he plans to leave as soon as he sees first sign of his downfall.

There is only one thing that scares me about RK. He always talks about love in terms of eternity. While it is not unusual but there is an odd ominous tone to it. It almost feels as if he is challenging the fates to do that while he strives to hold on to that love. It also scares me because it is obvious that it will not take much even a ghost of insecurity in this respect will be enough to push him over the edge. It scares me because RK is completely capable of suffocating Madhu's personality with his love just so that he can hold onto her.

Radhaji is a very odd character...I do not understand her at all. This lady wants someone else to do all the legwork on a relationship. She is not ready to risk even a little heartbreak even if might get her close to her estranged son. I fail to see what hold Dipali has on Radha that she would believe everything Dipali says. Does Radha not sense that Dipali seems to be more focussed on RK than Sikky?

Now for precap- My assumption is that he is making for the statements in reference to his mother, Madhu se pyaar karne kuch hi din baki hai (Because Madhu will be gone with him), Perfect husband hone ke kuch hi aur din baki hai (My guess he was talking about Kuku Bhatia). Sab kuch khatam ho jayega. (All her illusions will break and she will see the true faces of her family) aur phir sab kuch naya hoga (she might understand her son's anger and disappointment and will need to rebuild new realationships/new bonds with her family)
