@bold. If that was what it was, Jyoti, I would think much better of this lallu of an Onir! All is fair in love n 'war, and I adore successful deviousness in affairs of the heart.
Plus, I am disappointed in all of you - and where is Archana? She should have been out at the head of the ArVi brigade, dancing a jig in, what else, the rain! I thought you would all have set out the arati thali to welcome Onir and bless him for making the vegetable reunion possible😉.
Instead, here you are, nitpicking about petty details like where he got the money from to pay Shalini and Kinshuk . Why, from the balance of the FD with the proceeds of which he bought back his mishti's diamond necklace! He was saving the rest for a rainy day, and where Arjun and Purvi are, can rainy days be far behind?😉Plus, Archana bought a full diamond set for Ovi from the proceeds of two gold bangles, so Onir's hidden resources are small potatoes by comparison!
Then you crib about discrepancies in the timing of the events in that utterly ridiculous account of his to his fellow conspirators,. What you failed to ask and should have: Why on earth does he need to tell them the whole story at all? They made if happen,after all!
Anyhow, open up the champagne and await further developments. But be forewarned, and expect the unexpected. I have a sneaking feeling he is not going to be rid of this Tar Baby yet. She was shown looking soulfully, reproachfully and tearfully at him in the sole SBS segment that I have ever watched, and he was also carrying on like a water sprinkler.
So who knows, the secret might come out suddenly. Perhaps Shalini will be haggling with Onir over her overdue payment, and Purvi, having gone to the kholi to collect the last of Pari's stuff, will overhear this heated discussion.
Or else Purvi might see her in a TV serial (not PR, of course) and cotton on to the fact that she is an actress and not Mrs.Onir Dutt.
Bam! Poor Arjun will be beached and left high and dry once more, for how could the sanskaari Purvi abandon such a mahaantam tyagi of a husband? In fact Archana herself will anoint him the tyaag ki murti, trumping even the previous holder of the title, his Mishti.
Then all our hopes of early liberation will be dashed. There will be another 18 year leap, and Ankita will land up in Mumbai in 6 inch heels as Ovi-Arjun's daughter. Purvi and Onir would have been living on virtue and fresh air in the selfsame kholi (Ekta is not going to pay the rent for that gorgeous Kolkatta mansion any more) and Pari would be in the selfsame Archana-Purvi mould, only worse. There will be another triangle, more tyaag by Pari, more tantrums by Ankita's character, and the wheel will come full circle once again!😉
And where will all of us be? Why complaining as bitterly as ever, but also watching, also as ever!!😉 Ever wondered why and how Ekta Kapoor is so successful?
Shyamala
@Bold: Why else would his minions Shalini and Kinshuk be lurking around in PR. They will feel sad for their Mahaan Employer and will run to explain all his good intentions to his dear Mishti so that she comes running back with Mishti feeling more indebted to him.
