But then again, I should count my blessings mainly because there wasn't any mentioning of Sultanwala ingredient in this repulsive mixture; hopefully his lack of involvement stays at the same level.. I know that is a wishful thinking at my part '



I agree. After a long time, it was a Sultanless episode. Of course, he intends to flow into the cocktail, whether anybody likes it or not😆

Sound, I hope it is more like: like unwanted fly-he will fly around the drink, get dizzy, fall into it, and hopefully gets drowned 😆😆😆
OMG, I can be so mean sometimes 😲

Happy Birthday Charu!
So, after going over my essays I thought "Eh, what the heck, I need to watch Madhubala"😆 and so here is my review!
So Madhu wants to teach RK a lesson with her morals intact. Honey, I love you, but what have you been imbibing? You have a great reason to want vengeance- the man ruined your life!- call it that! Don't hide behind the clock of righteouness- you once told Radha that you wanted to break the man- you're a strong woman, stick with that idea!
If you're teaching him a lesson, at the end of the day, what are you going to do once that lesson has been taught? I think it says a great deal about Madhu's state of mind that she hasn't said anything about her plans and what they actually are- teach RK a lesson- but how? And how far will she go? And by indulging in this charade, does that mean her morals are already compromised? I'm looking forward to this more grey Madhu!
Sikky continue to be intelligent and a joru ka gulam. He does his wife's manicure and cracks the mystery. Good job!😉 Dipali, happy at the knowledge of Madhu's plans goes to the woman herself and starts making cracks on the dress and her "aukat". Careful Dips, I know you're obsessed with Madhu but pace yourself- I think you're rivaling RK in your obsession with the girl.
RK remains alert and on the prowl. His dialogues are chock full of innuendo- let me burn in this love, let me sacrifice myself to you- perhaps a subtle way to warn Madhu that he knows something is up? She's not the player he is, the clue is going to go right over her head- if it was intended to be a clue in the first place.
When Madhu said "I can't walk in these heels" I was like "Honey, I know the feeling!" and then I saw she was wearing wedges and was like 😆

What I fail to understand is how exactly is Madhu planning to end this sabak sikhaana or revenge or whatever she is planning. Even if we accept that she somehow manages to fool RK (ha ha) and succeeds in giving him pyar ka dard, what after that? Does she expect RK to meekly drop her back to the chawl with a word of thanks for making him realise his mistake? The man who went to such lengths to avenge four slaps is quite capable of killing her for breaking his heart. Yeah he may kill himself too after that like he declared at the studio.

There is a difference between being naive and being outright stupid. But why blame the girl when her own mother is encouraging her to put her head in the lion's mouth. Go Madhu Go! Convince a hot-blooded male of your undying passion. Just don't forget your sanskaar in the process.

Is there a 'barf' emoticon available around here?

scenarios

1) madhu will go on with her revenge but her soul will feel pinched midway n she'll stop...

2) madhu will take revenge but rk will know abt it n give in to her wishes..

3),4) madhu will take revenge but rk will not know about it n will be heartbroken or fuming

5)madhu will be on with her revenge n rk will realise abt her plan n will stop her from stooping like he did

6) madhu will go on with her revenge but midway rk will apologize



results: both will be grieving anyway!


(i want the 5th one)😳

My episode review-
Why is it that I find all scenes acceptable only to a certain point these days?
Padmini-Madhu-
1. RK doesn't know how to treat a woman in a relationship.
2. The pain of a wound is magnified when someone tries to make light of it.
Ok, I was with Madhu so far.
She didn't mention revenge, only teaching him a lesson on love and the pain of love.
Here is where I felt a disconnect.
How do you teach a person these things?
1. Make them watch someone experiencing it- RK has already done this and her heartbreak didn't affect him all that much.
2. Make them experience it for themselves- This is foolproof but Madhu is overlooking that whatever she calls it, it'll amount to revenge and also her own future.
This is what Padmini should have asked her (before waving her daughter off to the battlefield): What do you want when the war is over? To be free from RK or rebuild your relationship from scratch.
Instead she spouted something about not overstepping the boundaries of 'maryaada' which left me somewhat confused. What are these boundaries, what should Madhu not do?
I find it hard to believe that Padmini will think of anything Madhu does as crossing the line, such is her hatred of RK. She will justify everything in the name of choosing 'sahi' over 'galath'.
I hate to harp on this but didn't it occur to Padmini to question Madhu's change of mind (regarding moving on) or suggest that Madhu drop this idea?
It's strange how I find this mother-daughter relationship not enriching but faintly mutually destructive.
If we assume that when a wound is inflicted (action), the reaction proving highest virtue is forgiveness and lowest is seeking revenge, then Madhu seems to have found a middle ground.
I'm not judging her even if she chooses revenge but if she can't forgive him, then it's step down from the pedestal of her own creation. (Or rather Padmini's creation and Madhu's glorification) Somehow neither of them sees this, they continue to believe that anything Madhu chooses to do is the most virtuous course of action.

RK-Madhu-
She answers when he doesn't ask and hesitates when he does- acting or not, both are certainly on different wavelengths.
She lies convincingly about her mother being upset and RK launches into his ma and mamta lecture again. There doesn't seem to be much significance to Padmini's involvement as far as RK in concerned.
The Sultan situation is more complex- Not only does he not mention the video, he doesn't ask her reason for visiting or even drop a snarky comment about her 'dost'.
Is he trying to show her that he's not insecure?
Or is he waiting for more evidence to pile up so he can blind side her with a confrontation?
Give the rumors about the love test, I'm guessing its the latter. Sigh!
The dress: I guess we'll have to make peace with the fact that Madhu is not opposed to such dresses but it was the act of unveiling that she found humiliating in the past. No other explanation for this piece of clunk.

Dipali-Sikky-
Funnily enough, it was Sikky who became our voice today. With our characters on a faking rampage, its been in the back of our minds if it'll all come down to a re-unwedding.
(I don't mean a logical flow of events but the makers' idea of an entertaining end to the track)
Dipali catches on but she's not a very clever vamp, is she? I mean, why not keep a quiet watch on Madhu for a while? What purpose does confronting her serve? (As if she'll say yes; she did, but that's a different story)
Instead of instilling fear, Dipali upto something is a guarantee for a few laughs. No one brings out RK's wit like her.
I've always found her spontaneous words to RK more cutting (like love test or dhokebaaz episode) than any of her hare-brained schemes.

Precap- RK is going to support Madhu, spout some 'meri biwi hai', 'mera ghar hai', blah blah, blah "OUT" lines. Except, he's the one going out :)
Just hoping for some refreshingly witty insults and if its anything else, I'll be surprised!

Looking forward to everyone's reviews, as usual.

The ' teaching a lesson' or 'revenge' - whatever it is, has just begun and people are already concerned about his soon to bleed heart and her loss of innocence. All is fair in love and war. RK waged war in the cloak of love. Madhu is doing the same but her means are supposed to be different. Lets see what it is going to be before writing her off.


I think RK already is aware of her plan and is playing along because:
1. He is curious to know how she will go about it.
2. He wants to keep her close to his side, away from Sultan. Her plan will require her to be in close proximity to him.
3. He wants to subjugate himself to what she would have gone through so that they are finally equal.


Madhu will learn that he was on to her faking and still played along because he deeply loves her and wants to experience her pain. That will be the moment she will break down and they can then pull each other out of the hell hole they pushed each other in.


A repeated argument is why is Madhu not forgiving RK? I think she can't forgive someone who is not repentant yet. Has RK asked for her forgiveness? No. All he asks her to do is forgive and forget, without explicitly asking for that forgiveness. In fact to him it was all a nok jok. Can anyone blame her for wanting to show him that it cannot be written off as nok jok?

Madhu did not look like a heroine today. She looked, spoke, acted like a complete vamp, ready to pounce on RK at any given instance. Little does she know that the man has razor sharp brain and almost supernatural intelligence. 😎 The only way her plan would work is, if RK deliberately decides to give himself in.




🤣🤣🤣 her plan even makes Sikky look like one bright fella!! If individuals like Sikky could decode Madhu's revenge plan; how solid can this plan be 😕???

My problem exactly.

The thing is that most of her decisions end up benefiting people in the long run. For example: she forced RK to forgive his mother without bothering to find out how he felt about it .. Just gave that "forgive and forget" speech, which by the way she is not practicing herself.

While her method was wrong, the end result was good .. which is why it is ignored. In this case too, should the end result be good enough, then however distasteful her method is, it will be considered a necessary evil.

And she looked so shocked that Dipali guessed her plan! She most probably thought no one would ever figure it out..

I think she was faking that too, her shock I mean. Perhaps she hadn't counted on Dipali's interference but this Madhu has wised up, she's using the situation to reinforce her plan for RK.
Not to speculate too much but she might say "Dekho na RK, Dipali bhabhi kya keh rahi hai" or something to that effect and when he intervenes and dismisses Dips, Dips will be forced to think that RK has really fallen into the trap.
Seems like a minor inconvenience in the larger scheme of things but lets see how it plays out.
