~Preet ~*The Patakha Punjaban*

PREET Ishan Hooda or Should I say Preet kaur Bhullar was on fire yesterday. A true rockstar , the patakha punjaban who fought back and actually helped her husband to get back to his senses. The other day her husband was complaining that being a patakha punjaban, you are so weak, brittle. I suppose he never thought that its a wrong asessment of hers and the biggest prrof that he got for himself only. 😆 The way she blasted him for being unreasonable, blabbering utter rubbish without having any idea about wife's feelings, that too in those clear, loud and sharp words, she won my heart. YOU ROCK GIRL. BEhind the facade of that goody goody, ever caring, understanding Preet, there is a woman of strength who in weak moments admits that she is overdependent on her husband but in adverse moments gets back to her that husband to keep her self respect intact , minus the melodrama. Thanks for knowing that in a partnership, both have certain limits and should not be crossed just because you are agitated. Few words spoken by Rizwan were disgusting, insensitive and insulting to say the least, he was saying wothout even realising thanks to his raging jealousy and insecurity. Way of calming yourself down by bursting out nonsense on the spouse thinking thats the way it is. Foolish but very cliche expression from the man. But the woman in his life refused to take that trash and refuted like an wounded tigress. Uff I loved the way she said-aaj pehli baar mujhe sharmindagi ho rahi hai yeh soch ke meri shaadi tumse huyi hai. That one line infuriated him further but was spot on. 👏 Thank you for not being the doormat, leaving the arguement crying profusely and then thinking its obvious for a husband to react like that. Thanks for being NORMAL.Par Preet to Preet hai,filled with emotions and love for the man. My heart went out to her, when in that choking voice she was telling Rizwan what he means to her. She is not living in her past but so desperately wants to embrace her present but get distanced every time. Her whole heart screaming out to him that why are so bloody dumb not to understand that Vikrant Singh never meant anything , it only you to whom I belong. The world of Preet has only one as the beloved. Her anguish for her husband was well portrayed. The cherry on top the incomplete words. Jisko gestures aur feelings samajh nahi aate, use words se kya faraq padta hai. The way she finally closed the loop of dialogue by which Rizwan was trying to find respite-tumhe kya faraq padta hai. 👏 👏 👏 . Her husband not only got back to his reality from intixicated state , felt the sense of discomfort too. His gulp in the end was very apt. He realised he created havoc and inflicted pain in her sufferings. I hope he makes efforts to make her feel secure, sane and loved and not goes on some other guilt trip of his own. Looking forward to see how patakha punjaban gets manaoed by her patidev. 😳


Lastly the actor who portrays Preet-Mona you were as much as the reason for me to watch the show. I am so glad I was not wrong in my choice. You showed what excellence you ooze out onscreen. A class act. 👏 I so love the duel between two talented actors. Worth watching. ⭐️

WOW pinkeye, you expressed this amazingly. These two actors win my respect and admiration with every episode. I am so glad I watched this show, because for the first time I'm noticing how much work and effort must be put into acting such scenes... and I feel no one could have done these past scenes better.

Love love love Mona and Iqbal! Ahh I feel like some little fangirl 😳😆

Payal,

Fabulous post! Loved the apt title for apni punjabi kudi Preet ! For a layered character like Rizwan, who struggles with so many complexities and confusions of personality, we have one strong, steady and assertive lady love. As confused Rizwan is, Preet is as steady minded and clear in her feelings and thoughts. Between the two, Preet is hands down the stronger person, mentally and emotionally. Despite her horrible horrible past, she has moved on positively and with all the right intentions. She gets nightmares and still has recollections of that tragic night, but she also knows how to block it out of her memory as to not affect her present. Someone with that memory, would be a broken, damaged person, but Preet has managed to successfully take the second chance life has offered her and without any regrets in her heart, moved on.

Today, she proved that a woman in love doesn't need to be all forgiving and let her heart take over her mind. Her no-nonsense way of telling Ishan to shut up and stop being so petty in his thinking, was applaud worthy. Many women tend to become doormats in love, and let their self-respect be trampled upon every time the man is angry and/or drinking. This is even more often in EK shows, especially one special one where the man starts a tirade against his wife EVERY SINGLE time something goes wrong and he blames her for it. And his wife, otherwise a successful, independent strong woman, takes his nonsense and cries her buckets and forgives him when he says sorry next day. UGh, I got sick of it. But, Preet was a breath of fresh air today and proved what real, honest, and healthy relationships are like. You have to straighten out your man if he;s drunk and talking nonsense. Nor did she over do it by yapping mean stuff back at him, nor did she do melodramatic crying and acting all abla naari. She simply gave him back what he deserved, a sense of shame at what he said. Saari daru utar gayi Rizwan ki :P 😆

I like what they show from the precap too. An honest conversation between them, instead of no talking for 2-3 days, and then sorry and flowers and all forgotten. Preet is seen addressing the issue between them head on and in no uncertain terms telling him that he is the one who has created boundaries between them, she doesn't have any with him. Rizwan, is dumbstruck and has no answer to her statement. Preet is what women should be like, not just trying to be all perfect bahu and wife kind, but also independent, strong and have a voice that can be heard loud and clear when need arises. And I love the honesty that she brings to her relationship with Rizwan. As dishonest as he is, she is just as honest, sharing her past, sharing her insecurities, sharing her true feelings about him and their future together, without shying away from pertinent questions. Love her and Mona is such a delight to watch. As OTT she was in Jassi, she is just as restrained and on point in her character here, and I don't think anyone could have done a better job. She looks stunning, not to mention. And Iqbal and her have a nautral raw chemistry that suits the kind of mature love story theirs is. <3

@pooja, I so agree with you that unlike Rizwan, Preet has clarity of thoughts and uninhibited in expressing her feelings, her desires, shows her trust and confidence in her ability to love only.i am glad she is shown strong in love rather than blind, deaf, dumb devotee kind of a wife. She knows what she wants from the relationship and have no qualms to get that communicated either. Rizwan has his own set of struggles and turmoils, but its time for him to reflect on his thoughts, introspect and assess why he behaves, feels the way for preet like this. I loved the precap too, subtle, sweet but significant. On preet's dialogue tumhe kya lagta hai maine koi hadhe bana rakhi hai, rizwan's expressions were of shock, surprise yet moment of acknowledgement that how much he is hurting her. Looking forward to that scene.

Thank you so much. Yes both actors are excellent in their portrayal. Koi kisi ko 1 inch ka zameen nahi chodta,
Iqbal pe toh sab aise hi fida hai. 😆

This is such a wonderful post payal!

Preet had to face one of the most ridiculing behaviour from her husband, he was insensitive to the extent that she broke down in tears amidst a 100 people, and even if that wasnt enough, her husband went on ranting utter nonsense after they reached home until she took no more and revolted back.

From Preet's perspective, her husband was unreasonable, rude, insensitive, illogical, demeaning and insulting. He not only insulted her in the party but remained almost insensitive to her mere exsistence. Typical male ego, khud pe a gayi tu sab bhool jao and just start ranting!

I LOVE her for the sharmindagi dialogue. Bang on! That is what it was .. the way rizwaan was not stopping with his rubbish anybody would be ashamed to to be in a relation with him. And when this bold and honest remark irked her husband even more and he went on to utter some more rubbish, she clear cut told him how for granted her has been taking her. How she is the one binding the relation and how she was crying for the both of them and you had no idea. She came back with a response that her raging husband was at a loss of words. You GO Girl! Brilliant!

And Mona, i LOVED her! Her voice modulation, her anger, dissappointment and hurt combined, it was portrayed too well and ofc Iqbal toh hai hi best! Couldnt have been a better duo for such a power packed performance!

Thank you. I had to made this for the rockstar preet. 😆
She just gave the much needed reality check to her husband who got blinded by jealousy, rage and chilidish immaturity in the name of being possesive, I loved the way she induced that sense of shame in him by saying hum ek doosre ke itne pass hoke bi itne door kyun hai. The man was ridiculing his wife and the relationship for someone who never made it being the companion in her life. That was insensitive and not even respecting her past knowing all her trauma made Rizwan look like a moronic husband. 😡 😆 egoistic, stubborn and rude just to get back at her. I am so glad she screamed her heart out to make him flabbergasted.

The way she said 'sharamindagi' cringing her face at that point putting emphasis on how much she was hurting inside...loved it! I liked how in the start during the Badi Mummy - Preet conversation, mummyji praised Preet for being the perfect bahu...and Preet did some dialogue baazi in jest like TV serial bahus...and later they showed us how a 'perfect bahu' should be...she should be like Preet. She is by no means the sacrificial 'perfect bahu'...Her husband hurt her..she gave it back to him! At the same time she is not irrational.. In the precap she was calm, that's maturity!

Nice post..Ishreet fight was a treat to watch..
