Another week gone. And my, what a week it was. A sheer roller coaster ride of emotions. From delight to depression, back to delight and then once more the plunge into depression.
Conviction that a-k were getting together on Monday, nasty shock on Tuesday when Kripa lost her brains for a little while (hehe! Although if you were exposed to such a hottie, anybody could be excused a temporary meltdown of intellectual facilities!!!😳😉) Lovely, lovely surprise on Wednesday. Continued happy, fuzzy feelings on Thursday. And then that horrible new twist. God. I don't know how much longer I can withstand this continued upheaval of my emotions.😕
I spent the whole of the last weekend in a state of euphoria, as I felt that a reconciliation was imminent, which lasted till the start of the third set on Tuesday. After which it drained away pretty quickly. I remember writing in a post last weekend that I was going to meltdown completely when they showed the greatly hyped hug and meltdown I did, however my meltdown process was fatally slowed down when Kripa decided to pull one of her high moral stances and lambasted both Angad and Prithvi for taking her for granted???????? And then stalking off, leaving them both high and dry. Talk about crazily veering emotions. From the killer hug with Angad, to complete confusion in the space of about two seconds!!!!!!!!!!!!! But as one of my friends' older sister, who recently got married, assured me, love can make you do the wackiest of things. Say what????
Consequently, it was in a dejected mood that I tuned in to watch kyph on Wednesday, but apparently another colossal surprise was in the offing for us, but this was a surprise of the nicest kind, so hey, I'm not complaining. And what should we be shown but the much hoped for, much talked about and much anticipated reunion of our two beloved soul mates.
This forum has with rife with speculation for months about how the pending reconciliation would be effected between these two. And when it finally happened, it was in an over-the-top scene, ripped off directly from DTPH. And it's anybody's guess why two internationally renowned singers decided to launch into melodramatic playacting during one of their concerts. I'm guessing it was a concert. Given the very short amount of time in which it was organized and executed. Perhaps, the increasing number of real-life celebraties, who have embraced theatre with such zeal, inspires the kyph scriptwriters. Or more likely, they are just trying to cram as many memorable scenes from Indian blockbusters that they can into KYPH, because after all, this was meant to be a "Blockbuster Musical Serial".😛😆😃
My absolute favorite scene of the week wasn't the reconciliation one on Wednesday, btw. (Although, boy-o-boy, was that a spine tingling scene or what?) It came at the start of the second set on Thursday. The one where it showed Angad spinning around Kripa to face him and then catching hold of her by the waist and their ensuing playful banter. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!! So shweeeeeeeeeet!!!😳😳😳 I know. I know. But I can't help being so unbelievably sappy when I see the two of them together like this. Because this scene showed that they had truly gained back what they had lost; the ability to laugh together and be at complete ease with each other and just simply the opportunity to cherish each other's company like this, knowing how precious what they have is.
Plus, bad boy Angad's back!!!!! YAY!!! And how cute did they look. Complete meltdown scene!!!!!👏👏👏
Lol. I'll let you guys in on a little secret. I was briskly walking on the treadmill when this scene was shown and I guess I must have lost track of what I was doing and slowed down or something, being so busy gushing over the lovable twosome and the next thing I knew, I'd flown of the treadmill. Luckily, I landed on a couple of floor cushions, so the only thing that was hurt was my dignity, if you know what I mean.😳 Haha! And it was while I was heaped on the floor in a tangle of limbs, busy admiring the adorable a-k chase across the dance floor, that the clinging limpet, Simone, decided to make her wretched entrance😡. But you know what, I'm just so happy right now watching a-k finally getting all the happiness they deserve that I just cannot be bothered about it at the moment. Simone can try all she wants, but hopefully this time Kripa will give as good as she gets and hang on to her beloved.
And just when I was nearly bursting with happiness after watching the episode on Thursday, what should I read later in the day, but the dreadful article stating that Angad was going to end up in the slammer on false charges of having murdered Josh. His bestest friend in the whole world, for god sakes!!!!!!!! Is there no hardship that the heroes in Ekta Kapoor's serials, don't have to go through. Probably not. They have to bear the brunt for every single thing that goes wrong. So that was definitely enough to burst my bubble of joy. And yet again my high quickly deflated and took a nosedive for a deep, deep low😭. Are you guys beginning to sense a pattern over here?
OK! I've got it. Ekta Kapoor's got to get married. I mean if she's otherwise occupied she won't have the time or inclination to wreck havoc with all the scripts of her tele-serials. Seriously!!! When I was doing my GCSE's, we had a librarian at our school who was the biggest meanie imaginable. Refused to be happy over anything and God forbid that anyone else should be either. And suddenly she went away on leave and when she returned a few weeks later, married, it seemed like she'd undergone a whole personality change. Her disposition was so greatly improved. That's it. Evee Baba, work on a new jaap to get her married off. Then maybe we could have some peace in her lives.😛
Sigh! She's a fool for showing us all this clichd crap, and we are even bigger fools for being so hopelessly addicted to the stuff that she churns out. This really is the proverbial love/hate relationship.
Prithvi, you have done so much for these two clueless people. Do them one more humongous favor. Get them married. Tell them that you consider it an insult to yourself for them to state such a thing and that if they do not get married straight away; you'll never talk to them again. I feel for you man. But we all have to deal with our own emotional baggage. And really, nobody can ease anybody's personal pain. Let it go and move on.
Hmmmmm! I hate to say this, but Prithvi's behavior is definitely giving me the creeps. Ok, the guy is heart broken but he is making absolutely no effort to mask that fact, which is definitely very un-Prithvi like behavior. Plus, this may be simply a figment of my imagination, given the script writers obvious penchant for copying famous dialogues from famous movies, but the kal ho na ho scene definitely gave me an uneasy feeling. I mean, Kripa his amanat???? AS IF!!!!!!! I don't know. Maybe I'm just being paranoid. But, I feel like this isn't the end of the whole a-k-p triangle. And now, the unpleasant suspision I was avoiding talking about. I hate to say this but I think Prithvi might be behind the whole Josh murder thing. Think about it. He can't live without Kripa. He can't ask her to come back. So he's stuck in a vicious predicament. And to add insult to injury, he actually had to send his beloved into another man's arms himself. I don't know guys, unrequited love is a pretty dangerous emotion and when love crosses over into obsession, a person can resort to any level. And, I mean his mother was capable of a cold-hearted attempt on Kripa's life. Welllllllll, all I can say is that I really, truly, completely hope that it's Karthik behind the whole thing. I wouldn't want to see Prithvi's character ruined like this. Plus it's about time that they showed in a serial that nice guys actually do exist. Hey, you know, maybe he pretends to like Simone so that a-k will get married. If he does that, I'll love him forever for it!!!!!!!
Hmmm! All in all, I'm reserving my judgment about Prithvi at the moment.😕
As far as I'm concerned, Simone was definitely sent to try her best to break up a-k by Karthik. And he's despicable enough to resort to any level because of the pathological jealousy he feels for Angad. So he's unquestionably the primary suspect. Boy, this sure is one messed up character. Ooooooooh. How I hate him.😡
I just cannot believe that they are going to have Josh bumped off like this. I knew this was going to happen but now that we all know him and love him so, I'm going to really, really, really miss him and his passion for food and the way he was forever patching up things for his friends with the help of his ever present and highly efficient assistant Tansy. Angad is truly going to suffer a huge blow in losing the nicest friend anyone could ever dream of having. And I'm afraid once he's out of the picture; all the other vultures in kyph are going to swoop in to again try their utmost to tear apart Angad and Kripa.
And as if the news of Josh's demise isn't depressing enough, now Angad is going to be accused of murdering him and then thrown in jail.
Sigh! All things aside, I'm just so happy that Angad and Kripa are FINALLY back together.😃 And God, I really, really, really hope they stay together. I heard from somewhere that this time around Kripa would stick by her man's side and refuse to be drawn into another web of misunderstandings, mistaken beliefs and all around general confusion and bedlam. And the two new promos seem to suggest that a-k will stick it out together, especially the, "Pyar" &"Vishwaas!!!" part of the new promo with Kripa in it. (I probably shouldn't be saying this, but I'm so glad the word "Dosti" didn't figure anywhere in the new promo, if you know what I mean. Hehe!) I truly hope so. Because, a relationship, any relationship, can only thrive and flourish where there is trust. And when you love someone, you trust them. Unconditionally and unreservedly.
I'm already daydreaming about the day the Sony people will be running special promos announcing the upcoming wedding between two of the music industry's hottest stars, like they did for Jassi, without the disastrous ending of course. I don't watch Jassi but I remember seeing the promos and then one of my friends informing me that the whole wedding had being cancelled over a supposed infidelity. Ugh! These soaps, I tell you. Will do anything to attract viewer-ship. Of course, our lovebirds' wedding will be a genuine one, with the wholehearted blessings of this entire forum. Well, ok maybe not quite the entire forum. Haha!
Plus what about the promise Angad made to Kripa's dad???????? God. I just don't understand the disappearing acts that dadi and all the concerned parents keep pulling in kyph. Put your foot down, Mr. Sharma, and refuse to budge on this one.
Anyways, why can't they get them married? God. I really wish they did. Those two just look so right together. The fabulous new promo got one thing absolutely right; nobody's ever seen or heard about such a truly spectacular pairing.
The new promo, btw, released to coincide with Angad and Kripa getting back together is just way too cool. I saw it on Tuesday and after watching the dismal ending of Tuesday's episode, it was the only thing that shored me over till the fireworks on Wednesday. You know, this promo reminded me of the video (Lambi Judaii) they released to coincide with the (ugh!) a-k break up. An utter study in contrasts, if you may call it that. And I am totally not kidding when I say that while this new promo is all light and fun and oozing with the feel good factor, that video has got to be the single most tragic and depressing music video I have ever seen in my entire life. Downright haunting, infact!!! I remember I saw it when it premiered at the end of the show "Angad ka Safar". Which was telecast on a Friday and as a consequence of which, I spent the rest of the weekend in a state of acute depression. I don't know what it was; the heartrending lyrics; the lovely, poignant way it way it was shot. Both, probably. Plus, of course the dawning realization that we were now going to be subjected to months and months of a-k's separation. Even my family noticed how weepy I was, with my mom threatening to take away my TV if I didn't stop being so silly and my brother simply amazed at what a loser I was being. Boys just cannot appreciate a good thing when they see it. Lol. Anyways, that's all in the past now and hopefully we wont be seeing that video anytime soon, or ever, for that matter. And hopefully too, we wont be seeing, God forbid, another separation. Shudder!
But seriously. Have you ever stopped to wonder why it's just this show that affects you so much? Why its only Angad and Kripa, that are so close to your heart? What is it about these two that they have taken up such a permanent residence in our hearts?
I really can't answer those questions. But if I had to try to answer, I guess I would have to say that since the first time I saw these two together, something just clicked. And I kept in tuning religiously every night at 8:OO o'clock from Monday to Thursday to watch their story progressing, slowly becoming more and more captivated by the magic that these two were weaving together on my TV screen.
And I'm still watching, still ensnared in their magic spell. And you know what, as the McDonalds people got so right, "I'm lovin' it!!!!"😃
Take Care everyone!!!😊
Loads of love,
Amal
P.s. hmmmm!!! This post seems to have gotten completely out of hand!!! I just wanted to drop a line about what a week it's been. Phew! But I guess I was simply so overwhelmed by everything that's happened this week and is purported to happen later, that I just couldn't resist. Sorry guys!
