Today's episode was a dialogue driven episode and started the climax of this track. I really found the episode entertaining and a good watch. It embodied the best of all the characters.


The episode started out with Bebe asking Kunj and Twinkle do repeat the rasams of marriage all over. While quite an unusual gift, Bebe expressing the wish was reflective of how she is the person to ultimately keep the family together and would only pass on her position to Twinkle when the time is correct. The day before while Luthras lead the dance in the Sarna hows, Bebe despite passing through the obstacles laid by the Luthras, fell because of her own moral realization at how she had invited dark shadows inside the Sarna house when Anita's purpose of entrance in the mansion would be released.

The purpose to present the wish on Kunj's birthday was to reinstate the rebirth of Kunj and Twinkle's relationship with him being indicted officially into the War against the Luthras by the Tanejas with their willingness instead of Kunj walking in because of his responsibility/love for Twinkle and both stepping on a same page once again with same goals.

The scene was followed by Yuvi providing the last bottle to Kunj and calling up Twinkle who in turn asked Kunj to go to the hospital. What stood out to me was the positioning of the characters in the moment. While Kunj was standing on his own, Twinkle was surrounded by the two mothers' of the Sarna house and backed by the leading sons of the Sarna household, Cherry and Ananad. The position signified how Twinkle in all her decisions would be always backed by her family, finally having made a place in for herself as the bahu of Usha and Manhohar and wife of Kunj.


Anita and Yuvi interaction and Leela and Twinkle interaction today signified a distinct differenece in the children's relationship with their mothers and the mother's motive reflecting their positions. While Anita and Yuvi got together and taunted the belief-system of Twinkle and her love for her family, Twinkle and Leela worried about next steps that will ensure protection of Kunj and also help them defeat Anita and Yuvi in their horrible plans.

Leela and Twinkle have always been there for each other as the mother-daughter share an untainted love for each other whereas while Anita does love her son, her son does not love her back. The relationship between Anita and Yuvi has paralleled to their selfish motives, allowing their self-destructive ways to consume them fully and not allow them move away from the path they are walking on because there is no return for them.

Bebe hands Twinkle a dress that is of Kunj's favorite color, signifying that by reciprocating Kunj's love and by providing him with same unconditional love and support Twinkle will be becoming his true strength in every sense and heal him completely from any gases and wounds that the future holds. The track of Kunj's insecurities and his realization of understanding Twinkle's position will be closing it's last loops soon as he realizes that Twinkle has put up emotional barriers for his own protection against him that has put her at distance with him and that she has moved on and despises Yuvraj. However her hatred for Yuvraj is surpassed by his love for her, and that realization that how much his "love" means to her would allow Kunj to understand the decisions she took while sacrificing herself.

Kunj at the hospital witnesses a little boy coming to the nurse and thanking her for not hurting him while giving him the blood. The scene signified Kunj recognizing Twinkle's innocence that impacts her decisions. He knows how clean-hearted and how much clear Twinkle is in her intentions and that is one trait of Twinkle that allows her misgivings to be brushed away and pulled apart. While Kunj will understand the reasons behind Twinkle's decisions, and he would be thankful of such too except that he would make sure to take advantage of her guilt and regret of not telling him everything to pull her legs and pretend to be extremely mad at her. His disappointment has already manifested itself in the confrontation and revelation today and he would allow the his attitude to linger between her and him because of being as stubborn in order to prove his displeasure of not being told the truth before.

Kunj was greeted by Yuvi's doctor instead of his own doctor in the hospital. The only person besides Anita, Leela and Twinkle who has seen Yuvi without a disguise ever since he has been sent to jail by Twinkle for attacking her sister. Dr. Hooda had been shown to deprive Yuvi of a second chance because he doesn't deserve it while at his stay in hospital. His presence was symbolic in s sense that it would push Kunj forward on to his own pathway that is to get justice for Twinkle.


Twinkle and Anita interaction was a mistake committed by the Luthras once again. Their over-confidence and there flaunting has always doomed them professionally and personally in front of Tanejas.

Anita tells Twinkle that she has 3 hours to save her husband if she wants to do such, unintentionally blessing Twinkle to be successful in her war against herself and her son. She also mentions to Twinkle how Yuvi in disguise of an Arab man had managed to sneak past the guards. Now Arab Kings are known for their extravagant lifestyle and Yuvi, whose name translates into a prince, is a person who lives and cherishes a flamboyant and lavish lifestyle. While being himself, in remaining in his true form he manages to escape with a disguise signifying that his appearance is under the radar and he is truly dependent on the Tanejas. Yuvi also asks for a change of 1000 Rupees. An amount as such and the number "1000" being the currency value signified how Yuvi leads in bending the rules through manipulation and by using his wealth. His wealth is provided to him through his mother, once again showing him being a dependent instead of being a person who has the ability to fight his own fight.

Twinkle calls up Kunj to see where he is present as she wants him to be home safe and sound be present in front of her. The fake-cough Kunj pretended with was reflective of how he would use Twinkle's regret and guilt against her but once he sees her crying from the realization that she has hurt him, his disappointment and stubbornness would melt away, allowing him to embrace her fully.

Kunj asks Twinkle to choose from the colors red, gold and maroon and she replies by saying that while all colors are good, she thinks that the color maroon suits him well. The color Maroon is a dark and deepest shade of red however it also blends with the brownish crimson shade which signifies the blending of energy, passion, love in extremes along with structure, stability and protectiveness of brown. Overall, the color maroon symbolizes courage, bravery and strength.

However before choosing the maroon color as told be Twinkle, Kunj pulls out a red and gold sherwani which is donned by Yuvi instead of him. The gold would have signified the compassion and genrosity it carries because of being a sun's color for Kunj however once Yuvi pulled the sherwani out of uni's hands using the worst ways to take over someone else's possessions, the significance of the cloth change signifying the extreme reactions of Yuvi he takes under the preteens of his wealthy lifestyle.

He calls out of Kunj's unconscious body that the clock has struck 6 and he is coming to the Sarna mansion. 6 is the most human number and symbolizes the negitivity of imperfection, sin and evil committed by humans. He takes Kunj into an isolated territory and leaves him with two men at guard as a rooks are made to guard the King in a chess game once there are no pawns left. Thus far, Kunj had been weakened by being oblivious the the truth however with Yuvi throwing the water on him, the blinded curtains over the truth had been revealed and unintentionally like his mother, Yuvi has provided Kunj with the ability to break free of the isolation by turning Yuvi himself as a pawn in his own game. The mention of Twinkle and Yuvi marrying Twinkle without her realizing allowed Kunj's rage to take over so much that he was no longer held back.

This last battle has started out itself with everyone standing equally on the battlefront now. The only leverage Yuvi has is the divorce papers but they will not be able to suffice though and he is still a dependent of the people around him by being isolated in his mission. The episode ended with the rightful King, "the good-boy" isolated and held captive signifying that Yuvi's motive of keeping Kunj's safety a pawn to win the Queen however with he himself turning into his own pawn, he himself turning into a casualty, Yuvi is not allowed to take any more steps in legal or illegal way on the chessboard/battlefield.



With Anita and Yuvi's crimes piling up against them over and over again with them trying to harm two people associated with Twinkle to get back to her, he revelation of them to the Surjeet/Cherry and Bebe is not much far. Upon the revelation, Sarnas would become "active" targets of the Luthras for giving out the victory to Tanejas. The happy family that has been "hum saath saath hamesha" at this point would be tested all over again. The reason being? Anita Luthra would once again lose a family of her own even though she had gained and acquired a position between them through wrongful means, rejection of her presence and power in the household would be a blow to her albeit fake "love" for Surjeet. Just as Anita's family broke with her husband cheating on her and Leela rejecting the man, this time the rejection of Yuvraj's love by Twinkle would break Anita's family once again and despite not realizing the motive and still being driven by his obsession, Yuvraj will shake hands with his mother to break the Sarnas apart.


The episode was amazing, brilliantly executed and result of the most well-thought-out track of TEI till date. It was also very much full of KUVI feels of which I shall be heading to the forum's fangirl Queen's thread. Please leave your thoughts:



Edited to add;

I really liked how during the first interaction between Anita and Yuvi, Yuvi mentioned how much Twinkle's anger and ferocity and her being a "sherni" attracts him. While Kunj is appreciative of all of twinkle's qualities and has mentioned the one trait that bothers him, Yuvi is driven to Twinkle not because she is crowned as the most beautiful of Amritsar's girl but also because she was in many ways his equal (the family rivalry) and challenged his notions.

Another thing I really enjoyed was the play of words during the revelation of the truth of Yuvi's bail to Kunj between Yuvi and Kunj. Yuvi mentions how he Twinkle can be dancing to his tunes and he could finally have some control over her by putting a worth over love and life. The position of Yuvi in both the men's eyes was distinct. For one, a woman bought and for other, a woman sacrificed.

In today's episode when Yuvi's men were hitting Kunj I noticed they hit him behind his neck was that of any significance or not. Reason being in previous analysis you described neck relating to life source.



yeah definitely but it wasn't as important so i didn't mention it. the whole track is a subtrack that in the whole track that began with Yuvi's retie. the promo if you remember was of Kunj being taken away from Twinkle on a chess board and burning away however he never completely burned.

the shift in the whole track came when Manohar gave his profitable business to Twinkle and then the king and Queen pieces of the scholar side came back in Twinkle's hand from Yuvi's side. this track has finally allowed Kunj to be isolated and to be taken away. Yuvi left Kunj surrounded by rook pieces instead of doing a murder attempt over him as he typically would've. He need to be sure that Kunj is captured and away from the Queen so that he can walk in and win the queen which is twinkle.

the men putting their sticks together to hit on the back if his neck signified Kunj captured and Yuvraj believing that he has won. except that he hasn't. obviously we can't go by the whole chess move logic because there is no love on chess board but since we have love between he queen and king here, Kunj is going to come out and stand by if Twinkle takes him.

FIRST SPOT IS MINE LOSERS LOOOL. Jk I love you all. RES!
----------
So the beginning of the episode was caught off for me so thank you for filling me in lol. Bebe truly is the individual who keeps every tie in the family together with her position and awesomeness lol. Twinkle won't be ready for this position I think until Yuvi is officially out of their lives because although she has proven she can handle her husband and her family, things are so stressful whenever he is involved. Bebe made only one mistake so far and that was allowing Anita to enter and now she remains until Surjeet returns and understands her truth.

YOOO YOU HAVE TAUGHT ME SO WELL AREEBA! I knew this meant he's officially in the war muahahaha. You genius child. Aww I didn't notice the placements much today so it's truly wonderful how Twinkle is now part of the family that she has tried so hard to save.

YES YES! I think from the beginning of the show we have seen how different of mothers Anita & Leela are and it's always evident in Yuvle's upbringing and values. Anita managed to taunt Twinkle and I really wanted her to slap her but I realized Twinkle's value systems and respect for elders (tehzeeb yo) wouldn't allow her to. I just love how the scenes today like you said screamed out about the characters as individuals and the mother child relationships. Anita destructed her own child's life and now he is def gonna be the one to bring her to her end as well.

My biggest fear with this track was the worst misunderstanding between Kunj and Twinkle but your description of the importance of the dress and how Twinkle sacrificed so much has dawned upon him, MAKES ME SO HAPPY!

OMGG i didn't even realize it was YUVI's doc! Wow that's truly amazing. Lmao when Anita was saying everything I was like you do realize you have alerted the Tanejas in your overconfidence and now shiz is gonna hit the fan!!!

Omg I was too busy crying from laughter at the disguise scene, damn the Arabic prince thing + numerology FITS SO WELL.

I'm glad you analyzed Kunj's foolish behavior. It now makes me happy, instead of making me annoyed towards him LOL.
COLORSSS MAKE ME SO HAPPY.

The happy family that has been "hum saath saath hamesha" at thispoint would be tested all overagain. Thereason being? Anita Luthra would once again lose a family of her own even though she had gained and acquired a position between them throughwrongful means, rejection of her presence and power in thehousehold would be a blow to her albeit fake "love" for Surjeet.

HOLY MOLY ^^^^^ THIS IS SOOO GOOD!

Yo whose the forum fangirl Queen? The person with that username or do you mean me :O

I love your excitement at getting the first spot. there aren't even that many people on this forum LOL! and obvs you're the fangirl Queen!!

Where is Surjeet. I see Cherry around but we need to see him too. Last I saw him was when he taunting Manohar at being a father-in-law. His and Mahi's return is going to keep us all on the edge!

Twinkle will one day take the keys from Bebe because Nikki herself flew away to London but now is not the time and Bebe keeping the family together after Anita is kicked out would be the true test of her manning the power of her position.

I'm so excited now because Kunj is finally a member. he is no longer and will no longer be asked to leave by Tanejas. There won't be any misunderstanding because Kunj had a little time that allowed him to understand that there is something wrong. With Manohar thing, he thought everything was for Mahi and then Twinkle never hinted at hiding something big except just smile and nod.

The episode was definitely hilarious and I had to watch a couple of times to stop myKUVI feels and sarcastci commentary that automatically follows through to see through. It was an amazing blend of comedy and drama!

LOL I love all you guys too!

the difference in upbringing and the difference in both the individuals determines everything. Yuvi and Anita are both selfish. She used her son and he will eventually use her. Notice how he tells her he loves her whenever she gives him an idea to destroy Twinkle's relationship with others.

LOL true Yuvi goes for flashy stuff then subdued and comfort.
He is the biggest TWINJ shipper ironically.

Excited as well for the next episodes.
