Anyway, Bala, Ishita and Amma are talking about having a godh bharai ceremony for Vandu...Bala's a bit apprehensive about the same in the midst of all this Shagun drama...Amma assures him that she'll be treated just like a guest...no frills nothing...Basically, Vandu's godh bharai will happen in a blemish-free way...
Romi FINALLY met up with the farzi doctor...SUCH A NAUTANKI...SUCH A FAKE DOCTOR...Even the acting wasnt CONVINCING enough..."do din ka operation and then teen din ka aaram" is what the fake doc said...
"Tumhara aatmasammaan, tumhari Mardaangi wapas aa jayegi" WHO WRITES THESE LINES? AND WHY?
Romi's tensed...wondering of a way out...where to get the 5 lakhs from...then decides he'll go ask Toshi ji
And so, what excuse did he make to Toshi ji? Bunty ki Shaadi ke liye 5 lakh ka HONEYMOON PACKAGE gift karna hai usko...isliye paise chahiye...Obviously Toshi ji is outraged...shocked...and yells at him..."Khud ke paison se petrol tak bharta tera...tu itni badi rakam ki gifat dega use?" Simmi suggested they gift Bunty the new dinner set they'd got during Diwali...Toshi ji nods in agreement
"Do bol pyaar ke kya bol diye, tu toh mere sare pe MASAALE PEESNE LAGA"𤣠Toshi ji yells at him
Wahan, Amma tells Appa 'Vandu ki godh bharai ki shopping kiya...15000 ka kharcha hua" Appa is obviously in NO MOOD to be a party to Amma's shopping escapades...he cuts her off and berates her for having shared Raman's credit card transactions with Ishita..."Itne saalon ki naukri mein..government job mein mujhe kabhi kisi ne kuch ne kaha...kahin koi galti nahin nikaali...aaj pehli baar...Raman ne mujhe poocha...Madhu tum meri office ki confidential files kyun padhti ho..." and he goes and on, to be interrupted by Ishita...
Being a party to the one-sided rant frm Appa's end, she gets angry and understands its all Shagun's doing...decides she'll talk to Raman about it...Appa asks her not to, coz TECHNICALLY, Raman is right in his own place...Poor Appa...in this WHOLE MESS...am more pissed with Amma and Ishita, than Shagun...Why cant Amma and Ishita fight their battles at the RIGHT TIME? What's the need to go spill the beans to the bitch just coz it felt like?? Had Ishita not confronted Shagun about the huge chunks of shopping on Raman's CC, and just stashed it in her mind for future reference, choosing to talk about it to Raman instead, SOO MUCH UNNCESSARY DRAMA COULD'VE BEEN AVERTED...So much...
Coz no matter HOW MUCH of drama Ive watched with Raman and Ishita and Romi and the others involved, I dont want poor innocent naive APPA to fall into this dirty trap...Really disgusting it is...
Romi's sitting somewhere...sullen and thoughtful..facepalm..no, well...head in his hands style...Shagun watches him from the window...comes down to meet him and pretends to be concerned about him...'Kya hua Romi? Kuch intezaam hua...?? Dekho...Bhabhi hun tumhari"
''Bhabhi thi...HO NAHIN" Romi retorts :p
"Adi ke kuch FDs hain...agar tum kaho to...main tudwa dungi..." she offers...
"Tum ek kaam kyun nahin karte...office mein toh petty cash hoga hi naa...tum wahin se le lo...chori karne ke liye thodi na keh rahi hun..Jaise hi FD ke paise aayenge, tum paise wapas wahin rakh dena."
"Raman itne bade position pe hai...woh thodi naa yeh sab chhoti chhoti baaton pe dhyaan deta hoga" Yeah yeah, Raman is an effing CEO for NOTHING...I mean...he OF COURSE doesnt know addition and subtraction and wouldnt mind 5 lakhs suddenly depleting from the few lakhs stashed in the Accountant's cubicle...out of the crores his company has in his fixed assets...and Romi, DESPITE WORKING IN BHAI'S OFFICE AND KNOWING HOW HE IS, BELIEVES HER SHIT...
"Bhabhi MAA SAMAAN HOTI HAI" This was just the ICING ON THE CAKE...Towering over ALL THE OTHER NONSENSE SHE UTTERED TODAYđĄ What will Shagun do next? Hold a pooja thali in her hand and light diyas??
Ishita is pissed that Raman charged Appa without going into the facts first...as she mumbles a lot of irritated self-talk aloud...Ruhi comes over running with a piece of paper, to meet her...
Ruhi came with open hair today, and a red top and white three-quarters...looked REALLY REALLY CUTE...."Ishima...Worksheet mein five stars mile" Ishima is pleased and takes a minute to look at it...Ruhi guesses her Ishima is upset and asks her...
"Tumhari ankhon ke andar X-Ray machine hai kya? Aap apni Ishima ko kaise padh lete ho?"
In cute baby tones she cryptically tells Ruhi that her Appa is sad...Ruhi suggests to her to give him a kissi...(I guess that IS what she said)...
When Ishita told her just giving a kissi wont suffice, Ruhi ran off to get a trophy she had made herself...with 'World's Best Papa' engraved on it...
Romi took to Shagun's words... and right after the security guard left after locking the main door, Romi used the spare key he had to the main entrance...peeked at the CCTV camera...So...Romi's got to THIEVING now...aur kitna girega yeh ladka?? Gets the duplicate key to the safe where the petty cash was kept...Normally, the original key remains with the accountant...Romi takes out the cash..."Sorry Bhai...apne bhai ki office mein chori kar raha hun...maaf kar dena please"
Ruhi gifts Appa the trophy...I loved Ishi-Ru bonding...THIS WAS THE BEST THING IN THE WHOLE EPI TODAY...Apart from IshRa chheena-jhapti...that was to take place minutes later...Appa kissed Ruhi on the cheek...Ishita said 'I LOVE YOU' to Ruhi...and hugged like they were soo, soo above the petty Shagun drama constantly happening in their house...Ruhi ALWAYS MANAGES TO CALM MY NERVES
Raman is in his usual blue shirt...looked nice...but somehow, I felt ...there was a hint of tiredness in his face...Ishita comes from behind him, watching him look at a pic of a sorta pretty-looking girl...
'Ayyo Murugan...duniya mein dhokha hi dhokha hai...Pati hi aisa ho toh koi kya kare? Sharam nahin aati biwi ke hote huey laptop mein aise ladkiyan dekh rahe ho?"
"Ab biwi aisi mili hai toh yahi karunga na"
IshRa indulged in some couple banter for a couple of minutes...Between smirks and sly smiles and teasing and taunting, Raman clarified to her that he was actually looking for a match for Mihir...
"Haan...aur aankhen apni thandi kar rahe ho?" Ishita crinkled her nose and did some leg-pulling...
They have some more fun over Raman pretending there were so many cute girls he could look up on the site...while Ishita forced her palms right ovr her hubby's eyes...mock-pretending his OGLE FIESTA...that bit looked nice actually...VERY NICE...That's how real-life couples bond...over mundane ladki-tadoing stuff...I especially liked it coz IshRa seemed SOOO comfortable in their skin...rather...IN EACH OTHER'S SKIN...the touching, the glued-together way of sitting...the endless staring into each other;s eyes...ALL OF IT...
But what I DIDNT LIKE was this - When Romi arrived in the house and watching them 'get busy', tried to stealthily walk up to his room, without being questioned...IshRa however, see him coming...Raman gets up to ask him where he's been all this while...yada yada...Romi makes 'Bunty kI Shaadi' ka bahana...and walks off...Ishita tells Raman that she somehow finds Romi tired and withdrawn these days...Raman jokes around, saying, "Kisi ladki ke chakkar mein pada hoga"
I was wondering...WHY IS IT SUCH A JOKE AMONG THE BHALLAS THAT ROMI IS A CASANOVA AND CAN EASILY GALLIVANT AROUND THE TOWN WITH ANY WOMAN? WHY IS IT NOT IMPORTANT HE ACTUALLY IMPREGNATED A WOMAN, ON THE PRETEXT OF ETERNAL LOVE AND A HAPPY MARRIAGE, AND LEFT HER TO FEND FOR HERSELF? WHY? Call me a feminist or whatever, I JUST cant take these things lightly...Romi should be hit hard on his face and taught a lesson...thrown behind the bars...creep, he is
Romi tried to stuff the bundles in his travel bag...As he pulls it out from the back pocket of his jeans, a bundle falls to the ground...Relieved, that he's done the needful...he calls the doctor and informs him about the cash arrangement...What a DUMB idiot...If you're impotent and your vixen of am ex-Bhabhi refers you to a "doctor", the least you would do (BEFORE STEALING CASH WORTH LAKHS) is to verify the credentials of the so-called doctor...Especially, when the 'Bhabhi' is someone who's known to be a bitch of the highest order and beyond redemption..
The family's seated at the dining table...they're all teasing Ishita over the 'Raman's new wife' joke shared between the couple sometime back...
"Arrey, ismein bura kya hai? Jawaan hun, handsome hun...accha khasa kamaata hun...ek aur biwi toh main dekh hi sakta hun"
'Haan..haan...aapko jitni ladkiyan dekhni hai, dekh lo...par WOH LADKIYAN aapko nahin dekhengi" Ishita retorts...
Raman tells the others that he's seriously looking for a match for Mihir...thru a matrimonial profile he created on his behalf...On cue, Toshi ji says its high time a matrimony profile is created for Rinki as well...Rinki is upset ...she doesnt want to get married so soon...Not before she completes her course and gets a work ex for atleast 2-3 years...Toshi ji rebuts her rebelliousness, and says the 'looking-for-a-suitable-match' process isnt easy and might take 6-12 months...so its better if its started early..
Rinki looks very upset by this ...I was wondering, kahin aisa toh nahin ki dil hi dil mein Rinki ko Mihir accha lagta hai?? Anyway, she leaves the dining table and goes to Romi for support...Once inside the room, she finds Romi hurriedly packing his travel bag with layers and layers of clothes...On being asked, he says he's off to Bunty's farmhouse for his wedding as there's so much to prepare and all..he acts dismissive and tells her to leave him alone to his packing...She says she'd rather help him pack than go back and sit with the others...He acts quite gruff and stops her from even touching the bag...As she turns to leave his side, she sees a bundle of new, crisp notes lying near his foot...on the floor...She picks it up and shows it to him, in a way, asking "Yeh kahan se aaya?"
PRECAP - Ishita's getting ready and apparently, her safety pin falls to the ground...somewhere beneath Raman's expensive leather shoes...she bends down to pick it up...he shoves his foot forward..teases her "Arrey pair mat chhuo"...He asks her not to go for the godh bharai ceremony..."Waise bhi wahan Bala ki Maa Chennai se naye naye taanen seekh ke aayi hogi...woh tumhen kuch bolegi toh tumhen bura lagega...aur tumhen bura lagega toh MUJHE bura lagega...toh isliye keh raha hun...Chhodo naa woh sab...Mat Jao"
