Fireflies and confessions - Ek Jashn

I am one happy fan girl today. Just bring a smile to my face and all gile shikwe maaf. Yes, I am THAT easy to please. 😆 Khushi and I are alike that way. 😳

Three years ago when the show went off air, I stopped watching the final episode midway. I just couldn't bring myself to watch it till end...because that shouldn't have been the end. I had read the live updates and countless other posts, so I knew how it ended that day, but I had no intention of watching those last ten-fifteen minutes. Till date, I have never seen those final minutes. I just imagined that Arhi lived happily ever after. Even though I couldn't see them, they were living somewhere happily. Fighting and making up, sharing all the joys and sorrows of life. But it pricked somewhere deep, because so much was happening in the background that didn't make sense. An unexpected storm had wrecked havoc in our sapno ki duniya...one that broke our hearts in asli duniya. Instead of a conclusion, it left us with questions and pain.

About a year and a half ago, I stopped watching all the videos, stopped reading and writing stories, because the pain hadn't subsided. It didn't make sense that even after a year and a half, a daily soap had this kind of effect on me. It made no sense at all.

Once in a while, I would think of IPK...especially on the day of its anniversary...and that old wound would start aching. During its run, IPK made me angry, IPK made me cry. But for the most part, it made me very happy. So I wanted to remember it happily, but all I could remember was the pain it left me with...and I'd wonder why I decided to revisit in the first place.

I longed for a closure.

And today after three years, I finally have my closure.

So, thank you dammit.

I will longer think of IPK and feel heartache and emptiness. Whoever worked to bring this closure to me and for whatever reason...whether it's the heavens that answered our silent pleas...Star Network who thought of it as a marketing gimmick...or the actors and cvs who agreed for this coz they might have needed a closure too...it worked well in our favor.

Arnav and Khushi hugged and kissed.

They danced as rabba ve played in the wind.

Khushi finally told Arnav she sold her bangles for him.

This was all I ever asked for.

Jashn has been not been perfect. But I had decided early on to overlook the flaws. Because it came unexpectedly, at a time when I stopped hoping for a miracle. I don't have to imagine how Arnav and Khushi are living a few years into their marriage anymore. I have seen it now. I have this beautiful moment of Arhi as an affirmation. So yes, even though the road was bumpy, Jashn reached its destination.

I wish the previous episodes of Jashn were better. In all honesty, we didn't need most of it, and I'll probably never watch those parts again...but these few moments made me forget all of that too. That's what Arnav and Khushi always did...made me forget everything else.

I am going keep watching these final fifteen minutes until every single frame is etched in my heart, just like every other scene of Arhi, so that I can replay it in my mind whenever I want.

Thank God I never finished that so-called finale. I am told it had nothing but flashbacks, which I didn't need to see. Today, IPK finally reached its culmination. An ending it deserved. 😊

IPK, I'll always love you dammit.
