i am haunted by waters.

issk, uff lovely end sequence. yes redford's first directorial venture i am thinging now? brad pitt the boy i never could like, his first film? really? i would love to see it some day.

shetty. surreal experience having chat in a restaurant in bombay and being apprised the joint belongs to shetty. mukka, maar dhaad (to use your words), chain, slow low angle walk, big ganja, beady bulging red eyes, "fight" music, shetty, but paani poori... shetty?

that fight sequence looked very well choreographed to me, especially the godown bits... ohhohoho, my gliding swinging couldn't care less if i look romantic or not i am going to have a heck of a good time dhishumdhidhuming boy...

the chase was really good, again barun in total happiness, poor chap the constant catching falling for months would challenge any grown man's soul.

i am haunted by waters... totally.

thhe arnav kind, the gomti kind, the barun kind.

acchha, don't you think barun and sanaya would be rather dishy in a remake of teesri manzil?

Episode-278

Arnav and Khushi both are despondent and distraught without each other. Sitting by her husband's eternal heaven his poolside, laying her head back Khushi is ebbing in the thought of her Arnavji, the love of her life. she closes her eyes to conceal the turbulent emotions frothing at the surface, battling hard to break free. Tears brim and flows from her closed eyelids.

In the dark warehouse, Arnav hollers Khushi, but Khushi is nowhere. He buries his head on his folded arms, what are kept on his knees. Darkness again envelopes around him, like the moon gets veiled by dense swathes of dark clouds make the night even darker. He lifts his face up. His handsome features are marred by intense pain; his eyes have the somber expression of a person intensely lost in thoughts. To mollify his tumultuous heart he tries to submerge in the cocoon of Khushi's thought.

And the gust of wind starts to blow wafting his mind to Khushi, so that he can talk to her and she can hear him.

Khushi sun skate Ho Mujhe. Can you hear me?... he says with billow of emotions.

Hamesha...always...her mind is completely overtaken by him.

tum tare dekh rani Ho Na...you are watching stars, right?

Khushi nods her head and looks at the sky, says, apke aur Humare Amma babu ji ko dekh rahi Hoon...watching your and my parents.

Humara parents ko...he swallows hard to control his emotion.

Tum he Pata he Yeh Baat Mujhe Ek saal pehele kahi hoti to maine usse Bishwas nahi karta. Lekin aaj, Mujhe Lagta he Ki Yeh Baat sach hai.

(You know, if any body told this to me one year ago, I wouldn't believe him. But today, I think it's true)...his voice sounds tired but it is seeped with a touching need to have his lonely heart assuaged to be reassured by any means possible.

Humne apse tab Bhi Kaha Tha na ki Baat sach ya jhoot Ki nahi, Baat Bishwas Ki. Ek atoot Bishwas.

( I told you then, it's nothing about true or false, it's about your credence. A strong credence.)

Tumne Mujhe Yeh Bishwas Pe Bishwas dilaya. (You made me believe this fact)

ye Kya Kar diya Khushi Tum Ne mere saath...what have you done to me...he smiles with disbelief.

Itni koshish Ki Maine. Itni zada koshish Ki tumse nafrat Kar Sakoo. par Mai tumse nafrat Kar hi Nahi Paya. Mera Khud Ka Dil meri Baat hi nahi maan Paya.

( I tried so hard, tried so hard to hate you. I just couldn't hate you. My own heart couldn't make me understand.)

He says in voice laden with contrition. Yes he hadn't been able to completely thwart a feeling of self doubt that had been gnawing at his heart ever since he met her. Unbeknownst to himself, she had permeated in his heart and seeped deep in his soul, slowly, stealthily and with infinite gentleness.

Aur humne Kitni koshish Ki apse Pyaar Na Karneke Liye. Lekin humari Dil Ne Bhi humari Baat nani mani...she shuts her eyes to control her emotions.

You know Khushi, Mai jab Bhi Tumhari Paas Hota hoon...his voice is deep dense with emotion. Hamesha tumse door Jaane Ki jaldi mei reheta Hoon.

Lekin jaise hi tumse door jata Hoon, Hamesha Tumhare Paas aneka khayal reheta hai. I don't need anything else Khushi. I don't need anything.

His voice constricts more and his adam apple bulbs up and down as he swallows in an attempt to thwart a rising wave of emotions.

Aap Paas Rahoon ya door, lekin Ho to humari saath hi Na.

Yeh dooriyan humari rishton Ko Kaam Zore nahi Bana sakte hai Na.

Jo Ki hum Ek doosre Ke sun sakte hai, mehsos Kar sakte hai.

Ek doosre Se bate Kar sakte hai. Abhi Bhi hum Baat hi to Kar Rahee Na.

(you stay near or far, but you are always with me, this distance can weakens our relationship, because we can hear each other, feel each other, talk to each other. That exactly what we are doing right now.)

Arnav nods his head and a glimmer of smile glints his face.

Aap humare sath hai Aur door, bohot jaldi, aap Humko wapaas Le ayenge.

Aur Yeh humari wada hai apse arnavji.

(you are with me or far from me, pretty soon I will bring you back. and it's my promise to you.)

He smiles as if he is hearing her and having credence in her words.

Khushi touches her chest where her heart is hammering behind her rib cage.

Dhak Dhak Dhak Dhak

Can you hear my heart beat? aap sun sakte hai Humari dil Ki Dhadkan?

Hamesha,,...he nods his head. Hamesha; he aspirated to utter Hamesha as if the assurance made their heart assailed with fresh reservation.

After talking to each other they felt as their pent up misery finally found a release and their face beheld a perfect mirror of tranquility. Both leans down their head behind, tries to feel each other. Though they are looking decadent, but a deluge of indecipherable and powerful feelings of love washes across their hearts, as their love and trust dilute.

They were in soliloquy, but it was actually a conversation between them what is nothing but some kind of sublime telepathy.

In the wake of realization there raged some severe tempest in their life which threatened to throw thoughts, emotions and every thing else that stood in its path, into complete chaos. But in spite of that only one thought reigned supreme over this inner, conflict ravaged landscape...their unconditional love. It was intermingled with heartache, abhorrence, bittersweet memories, a burgeoning desire, what is blessed with something wonderful called love, a love that avowed to cross all obstacles.

Khushi is lying down on her bed, looks derelict without Arnav. Suddenly the power goes off. She gets scared and sits up in fear. She recollects how Arnav brought fireflies for her. But when the fire lies flew away, she was not scared at all, cause Arnav was there by her side as a protector, the light of her life. As she can't see him anywhere, a pensive thought broke through the hovering cloud of gloom. She suddenly feels that somebody entered her room. Arnav's name comes out from her mouth involuntarily.

It's Shyam who came with the candle. He thought she must be scared, that's why he brought light for her. In the dark room, shyam's presence felt sinister. He now dares to come in Arnav's bed room in the night. How gradually he is encroaching Arnav's possession, disgruntled me. Khushi is in revulsion to see him in her room, but she tries to dissimulate.

Shyam says she should not feel awkward, as he will not do any such thing what can make her uncomfortable. He says, as both of their intention is same, they should be united. When Khushi looks at him with bafflement, he mends that we should support each other and she must know how he feels for her. Before leaving he says that she must asks him whatever she wants. After he left Khushi utters Arnavji with so much longing. She is missing him so much and wishing if Arnav was here to protect her from that filthy man!

When Khushi was still embroiling in the vortex of tumultuous thought, NK comes there. She initially got scared to see his silhouette, thought Shyam came back again. Nk can sense her embroilment. He tells her to relax. But Khushii is woebegone; she feels infernal inwardly, to act with Shyam. He tries to touch her in any excuse. When she sees nk's bewilderment, she controls immediately. Nk is ambiguous, what did she mean! Khushi prevaricated the truth and says because of work purpose she has to be around him, what she is not liking at all. She thinks as Shyam is very cunning, they have to be careful. Nk tries to comfort her, that's why they should ignore and focus on their goal. Khushi assents him and she also came to know how to handle Shyam. She has to keep a keen eye on him. NK supports her, they will sure endeavor.

Payal fears to go to office party with Akash. She is asking him who are coming and all. Akash can sense her awkwardness, so he tells her if she feels uncomfortable, she doesn't have to go. Payal feels good. But when she calls bua to tell her that she didn't go with Akash, bua chides her, she made a mistake, she should go with him. Payal becomes sad. bua tells her to come to her place, she will teach her everything.

Bua is Payal's mentor. 😆 Payal tu to gayi kamse!

Shyam is having problem with his goondas. Rocky tells him about the problem. Shyam tells him to pay them more money and keep them shut.

I am surprised, where did some get so much money!

When he was scolding rocky on the phone, Khushi comes there with kheer. She brought kheer for Anjali. Shyam tells Anjali is not here, but she can leave the kheer here. Khushi thanks him for the last night, as he brought candle for her. She is scared of darkness Shyam tells her rhetorically that, he will not let the darkness come near her. Khushi abominates but tells him to eat the kheer. Shyam tells her to feed him with her hand. When he sees khushi's awkwardness he tells her not to misunderstand him. As both of their aim is same and as a Shagun, she should feed him a spoon. Khushi fells in to a predicament, what she supposed to do, to win his trust she should feed him. She cringes inwardly with abhorrence. Her trembling hand rises up to feed him. Shyam ogles her lasciviously. But Anjali reprieves her by entering there right then. She gets a bit incredulous to see Khushi feeding Shyam, but doesn't ponder her thought when Khushi says that she brought kheer for her and jijaji wanted to taste, so she was feeding him. As she came now, she should feed him. Anjali trusts her and happily goes to feed her swindler husband. Khushi looks at Shyam with embroilment. Shyam also looks at her tries to comfort her.

Bua is teaching Payal how to tame Akash. She thinks she should sing and use her eyes to seduce him. When Payal doesn't get what she was saying bua chides her, that she is a budhuu.

really she is a dolt, a dumbo.

Khushi tells NK about shyam's phone convo. She is sure Shyam is going to give those goons money. Nk thinks to follow him. Khushi also wants to accompany him.

She hears Shyam is telling Anjali that he is going outside. Khushi comes on his way and asks him where is he going?

Shyam doesn't tell the truth but he can stay back if she doesn't want him to go. Khushi says, he should go.

Khushi thinks it's a very good opportunity to follow him, to see where he goes.

episode 282

i have one major question really: why this pace of password typing?

who exactly keys in a password at that slow pace, with little intermittent dithers. this reminds me of hindi films where this electrical wire is burning at one end, heroine is tied to the other or something connected to it... electricity, defying all laws of nature, is travelling very slowly down the wire, while tension mounts as hero tries to reach her slaying dragons and other minor obstacles along the way. lots of intercutting and music crescendoing and stuff.

if there's one thing we key in fast almost without thinking, it's the password.

when it comes to direction and writing, patchy doesn't even begin to describe it. too many directors, too many writers, to little time and too little spine... not a good recipe for soap quality i guess. talent is of no use if you ain't plannin' to nurture the heck out of it.

so, while there was to my mind the requisite element of ughifying creepiness to shyam's villainy - the girl who pushed him away on the terrace he tried to hug tight in a password, transgressing boundaries, saying what he isn't supposed to, wanting her mere paas mere saath exactly as the man in captivity, and almost touched her, possessed her with his disgusting ploys, making her an intrinsic part of a plan to swindle the man who this very girl loved beyond herself - the execution was lacking in style, majorly.

iloveyoukhushi in all caps does the now-a-little-too-bloated-and-overacting-as-if-he-were-in-a-puja-jatra shyam type.

khushi is shocked while nk writes it down not quite realising what has just transpired.

but finally when it strikes nk, he is the opposite of shyam... abs straightforward; simply asks, what the h is this. that guileless behaviour is refreshing, a much needed feeling of cleanness amid the filth.

khushi, in the language we women are encouraged to adopt, prevaricative or toned down, as though we should be ashamed the man is all over us, somehow almost blame ourselves even, says, "woh hamare paas aane ki koshish karte hain..." he tries to come near me. huh! near you? he is groping, aggressive, got engaged to you... but khushi is perhaps brought up to look at this whole thing from the pov of "rishtey", so what if you have a hyena in your bed, it is rishtey after all and di's world will be turned upside down.

i loved nk's response... straight forward and really honestly, valid.

we need this thinking to be upheld instead of constantly showing sick men getting away with it in the name of samaj and rishtey.

disgusting... nk exclaims and almost shouts, "bas, main aur bardasht nahin kar sakta bilkul nahin... this is too much." i can't bear it any more, this is too much. and damn right he is.

he is the clear eyed, innocent defender of the good... we sorely require men like these.

he is like khushi in many ways, but he has been brought up a) outside india where such things are looked at more objectively and, b) as a man, not a girl. khushi has been taught to be "circumspect". sad, isn't it. when asr asks her why she didn't come clean about shyam, she says all sorts of things about how it was to save his sister, his family... what nonsense our heads are filled with.

in my family, this kind of thing has happened. egregious men without conscience who've used the whole women's izzat issue have been tolerated and it has only managed to ruin more lives.

a kiss kiss to my sweet nk.

there was talk of why akash might have been a better partner for khushi.

not really. the character is too timid. too hemmed in by all sorts of social niceties, and very much the younger bhai who melds and flows, never stands apart. or out.

when he falls in love he sighs softly. when nk decides to give it a shot, he lands up with a bunch of roses middle of the night, realises later uh huh girl is taken, doesn't fall to pieces, remains straightforward and fun and strong... very khushi like and endearing and nutty and courageous.

nk is my sweet free radical... loving, kind, flirtatious, goofy, but not tied down within. he speaks his mind.

really, i think we need many nks and asrs in our duniya.

"khushi ji, hum iss ghar mein itne gande aadmi ko kabhi nahin rahne de saktein..." bravo, my babua.

but that cannot be done and khushi sets off to get the voice recording of snake saying the impossibly obscene words. a scene around which plenty effort was put in... but again, i did not connect. acting just not up to the mark. though both sanaya and abhaas tried very hard. perhaps too hard.

hi sohara,

lovely take on the sublime telepathy as you call it. and a neat run through of all the strange moments of the episode.

did they have to show shyam with a candle trying to get cosy with khushi straight after telepathy? ugh.

some blue talk up there.

telepathy was such a beauty.

episode 283

a man stands there behind the pile up of cartons in a godown with a deadly look in eyes...

as rocky points his gun at him and looks threatening, he smiles. almost pleasantly.

and in a cool voice asks, "kya hua?"

what's up.

"abhi se itna dar gaya?"

scared already?

i can feel my heart do a slow flip and a smile leaping by my lips. it is such a joy to be in the hands of an expert.

the entire episode told us many things about khushi's desperate love. somehow khsuhi and nk decided asr making shyam executor of the will means he will inherit everything. then khushi felt terribly guilty because to save herself, to convince asr, she had agreed to team up with shyam, and get his papers signed.

at last she realised shyam ain't no angel, and the papers were switched.

the whole thing of switching, one thing turning out to be another happens again and again in ipk. shyam switched papers, she will do the same, and later the diesel water switch... she herself was aswitch on that ramp that very first night they met.

i did feel the dwelling on her ghin and hating shyam went on a bit too long, going on about something does not make it more impactful.

however, in a moving bit of writing she goes to devi maiyya and confesses, it is her misguided decision that has now taken arnav ji all the way to khatra to his life.

she is horrified but then pulls herself together and along with her absolutely rock steady confidant and partner plans their next move.

she says, she does not want to prove anything any more... she just wants him to be safe.

a big step in love. letting go of something that one needs for oneself, in this case, the proof of her innocence. not many can walk away from that. yet, she does. and again a touching understanding of pyaar by writers.

almost completing the thought will be asr's giving up of any need of any proof. he the man of reason, who does not believe in anything till it is rationally examined, he who loves with all his heart and is completely shattered by what he sees on the terrace, what is "chhap gaya hai", lets it all go... his hurt, his need for material evidence, everything... and accepts love for what it is. just that. enough in itself. no need for proof.

something poetic about her being willing to be suspected of immorality if need be but stop this hunt for evidence and his relinquishing of any need for such things, just trusting her.

yet somehow the scenes were before my eyes, never quite entering my mind.

i even felt that talk with dm, how all this happened because dm and khushi were not together, but now that dm is here, all will be well, very contrived. placed too carefully in the mix. her other conversations with dm were somehow always more charming and real and "khushi".

what was the problem? was it the words? the direction? the acting? couldn't figure out.

anjali saw shyam come out of chhotey's room. seemed happy he was given raksha dhaga by khushi though she was irritated that her husband didn't answer her call.

then mysteriously she was cold with khushi and said one should watch where one's going, why do something that one will need one to apologise for later...

clearly i was meant to read all sorts of things in the many looks and words on screen.

again, no connection.

and right at the end, for a reason i still don't quite get, khushi decided that the only way to get shyam to sign certain things would be to ask him to leave his wife.

oh so "cleverly", writers made sure she never said the damning words, achhi ladki after all, nahiiin, kitchen audience will wilt and die if heroine says such bad bad things.. so they got shyam to complete her sentences... what the.

but suddenly set in the middle of all this were a couple of minutes with arnav singh raizada and a look in the eyes, a confident smile on the lips. my senses rushed in, slamming to a connect, much like what happened when that hand on khushi's back yanked her to collide with him and stay there.

up there was the first shot of him after a frantic search by poor rocky for his quarry.

i stared when the face came into view partially. my eyes were fixed on the gaze.

something said to me, how can a man in a ridiculous vest standing in tacky sets, look so damn elegant.

i have no idea how this actor is without work for so long.

anyway, i will always have that shot... so i'll just be happy with that.

he continued his chat with the dumbfounded kidnapper.

"baad mein kya hoga jab main sach much bhag jaaonga..." what will happen later, when i really run away, he asked without raising his voice, the slightest inflection conveying a whole personality. he sounded like he'd had enough. he had been shocked initially, he had gone through a lot of physical abuse, he'd been perhaps winded for a while. but after the conversations with khushi, the meetings, the loving, after the last conversation with her and sending her his missive, he seemed to have gained strength and focus.

back to being all arnav singh raizada he was.

and all of that the actor showed really in that one single shot up there. talk of nonverbal communication. actually, don't talk.

"in fact, apne boss ko aur dost logon ko inform kar do..." in fact, inform your boss and your pals...

asr music comes in smooth and powerful, pushing aside everything, loping gracefully, and inexorably.

"kal din... suraj dhalne se pahle, main yahan se nikalne wala hoon..." tomorrow before day's end, i'm going to be leaving... beautifully chosen words, i missed a couple, but that "main yahan se nikalne wala hoon"... very very casual. no big deal. almost laughing off the big bad kidnap.

and funnily when the actor says it you believe him. you also believe this is possible. our sense of disbelief, read back in communication class, must be suspended for us to believe in the story playing out on the curtain. being in a theatre environment, cut off from all "reality" sitting rapt before a large screen, helps in this.

here i am, sitting on my not too comfortable chair in my small den, traffic noise filtering in, staring at my computer and watching the scene on a 6 inch window... and i have just thought, yes, after being in captivity for many days, and being beaten, hardly eating, no bath forever, no teeth brushing and who knows what else, a man can look like that and of course, he will be leaving the next day.

in fact, i want to sing heee is leeaaving, and i am excited just looking at asr.

of course, the world doesn't need this actor. give us the pals and sons and nephews of the bosses of bollywood pillleejh... heee is leeeaving.

and i better get my binoculars, sorry "doorbin... check."

"c'mon acsson!"

a conundrum.

the document that nk and khushi found looked like a will. but the bit that had the bold illegible signature definitely did not resemble a will in any way... hai re, everyone has clearly forgotten, nand kissore is in the detail.

that asr thing

So most of you thought there was a plan behind the silence.

And actually Barun was not available for shooting.

And also the TRP rose..

I think the TRP might have risen because this type of melodrama does work for other shows. Here, though I think he did want to hear everyone out, plus his eyes were saying all sorts of tender things to Khushi, am having a tough time seeing the man who hates melodrama, letting this continue for as long as it did.

Sohara, Indi di I see you guys have new takes.. hopefully will get to read soon..

am waiting for the biwi ho tum meri phase to start.. super excited to see ASR in all out get the girl mode.. just thinking am having a high acidity attack.. but before that many heart breaking sad scenes to come.

hello hi bye bye

thnx, glad u enjoyed the thoughts and the edits🤗

He wanted to kiss that hand that day when he saw his name in it...he touched it in the pool as it was hard for him to resist but he saw her scared of these overwhelming feelings , but he tried to awake in her those yearnings in which he is burning and that day he was disintegrating each second especially after teri meri...and NK who was provoking his patience...and he ended up kissing her first time...after that day this is his first lip touch...and we are again standing at the same spot...circle of eternity...

You are asking When DeviMaiya said that...

The destined Night...He was her protector ...all along...right under DM's ...Khushi's mother

Today and the day he picked her up in his egoistic denial yet telling her straight "you are mine..."...

or the day he sealed her Heart...with him...the Blood of hers that day was on his finger and he went after her and agin her blood is on his fingers but he let her go...aaj keh baad shakal nahin dekhni hai...and here her blood is in his hands...but"No! Khushi tum mere saath aisa nahin kar sakti...talk to me Dammit...

The Key of Hearts has finally unlocked all the doors...Two hearts one beat or you can say Two Hearts One key

Beautiful connections Apu👏

Didn't occur to me , he wanted to kiss her hand that day when he saw his name in it and today he did indeed finished the job after she calls his name Arnavji.A single key of two beating hearts.

What a moving piece...my dear
those pink lines are the gems
yes he can't see his loved ones to leave him...A SILENCE within and he can't take that and that is why he has created that garden where he feels his mother is still talking to him...

now Khushi whose bitter batter is his life and she is quiet like lifeless in his arms ...his ears once have experienced before and his eyes have gone through this when she deliberately removed herself from him only for two days and he couldn't live those moments ...regardless he said how will I breath in this room for six months...and now he wants her right there for eternity...

Beautiful thoughts...

Beautiful Piece Javeria👏

I loved this

My favorite scene in this mesmerizing and captivating episode is their reunion moment when khushi respond with "HMMM" to Arnav's copious frantic requests. Episode 288 was the second episode after Diwali one in which I forget to breathe till Khushi came back to life. The bright dazzling smile which reached to Arnav's eyes in which joy was shining was worth waiting scene. They both deserved to be ecstatic after a tiring journey of love.

nothing much to post from this episode and 21st september just passed so just to celebrate the most sensuousness consummation scene of Indian TV, posting one of favorite Arshi gif. credit goes to the maker.

Episode-290

NK says Shyam that he overheard him talking to the travel agent to put a stamp on Arnav's passport. Shyam tries to aberate their attention by subreption. He recriminates NK for coming to his room furtively and listened to his convo clandestinely. He thinks Khushi convinced him to believe her fake story. Shyam literally makes the air of the house a courtroom and tries to fabricate NK's words. He says, he just can't ponder what is he saying, but if he says so, he have to say for his defense that he needed that stamp of Scotland for one of his client's passport. Nk antagonizes him immediately; he knows well, he wanted to put it on Nanav's passport, because he heard him saying Arnav's name. Shyam tries to make him diffident, did he remember clearly that he uttered Arnav's name? NK get confused and Shyam takes the opportunity. Shyam tries to enmesh him by his cagey words,

"Assume I uttered Saale sahab's name, but do you have any proof or evidence of it?"

He says, he is considering that as he and Khushi have been spying after him for so many days, they must've gathered some evidence against him. Or some other witness. But as they don't have any of this, how can they accept that they are telling the truth? NK's anger pulsates to hear his lie. He goes to everybody and tells them that Shyam is lying. Finally when he comes to Anjali and tells her that her husband is lying, Shyam tries to garble Khushi's image.

"NK bhai, you are so simple and if anybody influences you wrongly, it's not your fault."

Khushi is in revulsion to hear his lie. Shyam asks NK, did he see him kidnapping Arnav or anything related to this, no right. Shyam now asks Arnav, "when he was in the hostage, did he ever see him, no right?"

How confidently he was answering his own questions proves that he knows very well that that he never came in front of Arnav. He is not supposed to know what Arnav saw or what not.

There is a blank and confused expression in Arnav's face, what surprised me again. Let's assume Khushi and he had some kind of talk before entering the house; they might decided to keep quite and let Shyam talk, but I expected some fury or aggression in his expression. I know Barun was not there and the cvs used his couple of expressions in between the scenes. As he was not available for shoot they could get more of his expressions or should wait for the denouement.

Any way all are stupefied for sure. Shyam continues his tirade,

"Arnav is quite and NK is saying Khushi's words and Khushi is lying, accusing me wrongly. I don't know why you are saying wrong thing about me? Khushi, what will you achieve by lying against me?"

'Woh jhoot nahi bol rahi hai." after keeping quiet for a long time Payal refutes Shyam when nobody utters a single word against this heinous man. She just can't tolerate her sister to be humiliated by this rogue any more. She moves forward and says that, the wrong thing Shyam is saying against her sister.

'You must be forgetting that not Khushi only I also know your truth."

Shyam swallows hard in fear. All looks a bit baffled.

"so don't try to pretend ignorance."

Akash asks Payal, what she is talking about. She tells Akash that what Shyam is telling is not true, what Khushi is saying is true.

Shyam attacks Payal now, what more can we expect from a sister. Or moreover in a family, elders always cover up their younger's wrong deed. Payal again retorts him strongly that Khushi is not wrong. I loved Payal's resilience behind the fierce attitude.

Mami assails Payal with her afflictive words now, she knew form the very beginning that these two sisters are absolutely wrong.

I just can't believe it! Where is mami's incisive thought gone!

"mamiji!" Khushi is startled to see her changed behavior. Her eyes flicker with pain and bewilderment.

NK can't bear wrong and inconsequential accusation against Khushi and Payal. I just love NK for taking the umbrage of the poor sisters whom has been treating so irreverently. He tells everybody about Shyam's pendant, what is not a regular pendant but a pen drive, where he kept the soft copy of the fake will; where he also got Arnav's signature and according to this Arnav transferred his whole property to shyam's name. all became puzzled again. When NK intended to go to get the pendant Shyam calls him and shows him his locket.

Khushi can understand that he must've exchanged the pen drive with the fake one; otherwise he wouldn't have shown it so confidently.

NK tries to open the locket, but obviously it doesn't open. Shyam gets more confident now and says it's just a locket, no pen drive. Khushi looks at NK and they realize Shyam exchanged the pen drive. He tells Khushi in front of everybody that jiju has already exchanged the pen drive, he must've found it in Khushi's room. Shyam is trying to avert Anjali's attention by saying what nonsense they are talking; did they ever see him using this pen drive?

NK wants to reveal another secret of him. He knows well it was his pen drive and they know the password too. He set a small camera in his room to check. Akash is befuddled now, why he did this? NK tells Akash that they had to do so. He asks Khushi, where is her phone, where they recorded his voice notification, "I love you Khushi?"

all are flummoxed again. This time Arnav's face gets taut in anger. Good, at least he showed some kind of reaction. But doesn't he know this already that shyam loves Khushi!

Shyam tries to inveigle Anjali, that they are talking nasty, crossing all the limits now. Anjali shows him her hand to stop talking rubbish.

After seeing her angry glare at Shyam I misunderstood that she might believed NK and Khushi, but she was too weak to accept the harsh reality. So she preferred to stay in delusion.

NK's face also glints with a smile to see her being harsh with Shyam. But it was his misunderstanding. Anjali actually is mad at NK and Khushi and admonishes them to stop all this. When NK still tries to convince her, she refutes to hear anything, cause she heard enough today. Khushi tries to say to rely on her. Anjali breaks down; she doesn't have trust on her any words. Shyam again tries to use her weak point, he berates Khushi for hurting Anjali. Both NK and Khushi again try to make Anjali to ponder their words calmly. Shyam intervenes again to stop doing this joke, somehow he has to prevaricate in order to hide his truth and things are getting impertinent as Nk and Khushi are not relinquishing.

"it's not a joke" NK exasperates. He asks Khushi to get her phone where they recorded his voice. khushi says he doesn't have her phone cause last time when she was talking to him, Shyam snatched it from her hand.

By the way where is the video clipping where they saw shyam said I love you Khushi? Everything should be found in NK's laptop. The writer was bonkers while writing the script I guess.

When Khushi sees nobody is trusting her, she asks them why they are not believing her words, that this man did a serious damage to this family.

Now it's time for mami to vex Khushi. she charges her with poignant words,
"you didn't do any harm to this family? If you are so concerned then where it was in the morning, when you asked Shyam to divorce Anjali?"

This is the day for Raizada family to get shock after shock.

mami asks Khushi tersely, why she asked Shyam to divorce anjali, when Arnav is not here?

Khushi tells her that she didn't have any such intention; she just wanted to take Shyam's signature on those papers where it said he doesn't have any right on Arnav's property. For a moment it seemed that mami is in quandary. Khushi continues that she knew that shyam wouldn't sign any such papers, so she tricked him by signing the divorce paper. Shyam tries to hide his face, get scared to get caught.

mami literally lacerate Khushi in strident voice to get those papers, " I'm telling you to bring it right now." mami screams at her.

I can't endure any more and I'm getting mad at Arnav now. How dare mami is screaming at his wife in front of him? I have to say again why she needs proof or evidence to prove her words? She is Mrs, Arnav singh raizada, then why everybody is treating her ignoble, as liar and swindler?

khushi scurries fast to get those papers, but she remembers that she dropped those papers in the warehouse and Shyam knows it very well. So he again uses this opportunity to assail Khushi, "you must not have that evidence also! I snatched it or you must've dropped somewhere, right or misplaced it?"

Khushi comes to NK in embroilment and says him that because of this fear, she took it with her and dropped it in the place where she went to rescue Arnav. Shyam attacks her again, how much lie she will tell? she doesn't have any evidence to prove her accusation and has been talking baseless. If he would've known that those were divorce papers, then he never would've signed. "Why I'll divorce rani saheba?"

mami now catches him, that she knows that this phatti saree started this divorce talk, but he also agreed to do so, cause she heard him in this morning. She asks him, why he said yes? why he wanted to divorce Anjali?"

Shyam assents that he did say yes. Anjali wilts to hear this. Shyam goes to manipulate her again, he never wanted this thing reveal like this.

"I agreed just to stop her, just to get rid of her, because she was after me like crazy. To save the honor of the family and to keep the peace, I had to agree."

Shyam realizes the peril of the ground he is about to tread on, the social niceties, his image to the family what he veneered so deftly for so long, is going to demolish, so he nastily tries to tarnish Khushi's character..

Khushhi becomes flummoxed, his false and filthy accusation breaches her inside, she becomes wretched to hear such insinuation against her. the rest of the family is bewildered. And I'm bewildered to see Arnav's nonchalance. How Shyam trampled Khushi was abominable and heinous. Not ASR, but any husband can't tolerate such disparagement against his wife. But ASR did and I know that is injustice the cvs did to his role. My ASR is not like that and I can't forgive cvs for destroying my man's character.
