IKRS Wednesday 22nd June 2016 ep 285 My Take ~ A few good men!
Many titles came to mind like the princess and the pauper, Parsiya and Dhani.. love transcends status. Then I thought of Viplav's doubts.. about Dhani's relationship with Parsiya. But I settled for the action sequence and call it, a few good men! Viplav and Parsiya two knights! Fighting to save the honour of a damsel in distress. Had a good feeling that chivalry is not dead!
Parisya the good man of thought and deeds has all the right elements of being framed. The bloke's unemployed, young, bit of a macho man , without a family or a permanent address for that matter. Roams around with a group of harmless merry men, passes time at the chai wala. However his biggest drawback in the wicked witch's eyes is that he is pro Dhani and her spawn's biggest supporter. He has to be heeled but not without a wicked purpose. That To expose the true nature of his relationship with Dhani. that is how Kamini plots to have Viplav for keeps. Tripurari makes an entry disguised as an ailing man who wants someone to dial a number for him written on a chit of paper.. this number is primed to get him publicly roughed up! labelled as the kidnapper! and dragged down to the station, by the boys in blue. since the ailing man is swallowed up by the earth all that Parsiya says in his defence is dismissed as codswallop !and he's rounded up. When the wicked witch works with the warlock Tripurari things seldom go wrong. Parsiya despite his stature is a bit of an oaf. Probably as he is raw, streetwise and without finesse and elegance like the suave Viplav tirpathi whom Parsiya enviously sees as a bit of a lion and himself as a little mouse in comparison! Mind you this belitting himself is only when the question enters in his mind which of the two between Viplav or him would be best for Dhani? he always withdraws , she was the princess and he the pauper! but in my opinion he is humble bloke with his head screwed the right way and his heart in the right place. But he is a splinter in Kamini's eyes! Lucky for Parsiya the chit that the said old man gave him is lost! Woe be upon Parsiya's memory which aids him ,he dials the number and just his rotten luck! the dialled number is the kidnapped child's father's number! So its for sure off to the state guest house for questioning! The wicked witch is no pretty face she is devils daughter, wickedly smart who research's well about those she wants nabbed. Parshiya tries to tell the constables he didn't kidnap the kid he wants them to believe him, such a folly ! his image of being up to no good is enough for no one to believe him.
The game plan now furthers as the constables brief the Inspector who in turn Inspector informs Viplav that suspect is caught from the PCO. Kamini, feigns further worried sick mother act , asks what about her son? Inspector assures they will get him also. Then comes the shocker ! one that will spontaneously bring out Dhani's concern , her wrath for Parsiya out in the open. Kamini's hidden agenda is for Dhani to react in a manner that will reveal to Viplav Dhani does not love him any more !she has moved on and married this Parsiya. But as soon as the inspector informs the kidnapper is none other than Parshiya! Viplav gets his answers regards Dhani's relationship with Parsiya. Viplav is spellbound in the manner Dhani emphatically refuses to accept that Parsiya could ring the number demand for ransom! Viplav watches how she fights her case intrepidly , yes Dhani always had it in her! how he had once said to her yes get an education then both him and her together would fight cases! Here she certainly fights a case with logic but to defend parshiya. Kamini tries to butt in but what about her son? but dhani shuts her up so she can comment on parisya's sensitivity he is one man who thinks about others,! Viplav studies Dhani's passion in her defence speech . Viplav has another shock or is it quilt? in my opinion when Dhani vouches for Parsiya integrity by saying she can doubt everyone in the world except Parsiya ! The more she seem to defend Parsiya Viplav seems to be losing his case of his Ishq! which is exactly what the wicked witch wants! but alongside Dhani also manages to whip up support for Parsiya from Viplav in particular ! for when the inspector says , its not about her doubting him its the law that doubts him. But for this too Dhani fights with words, they doubt him because he lives in the ghettos! is jobless ,vulnerable who cannot even afford a lawyer. is that why he is being framed? Dhani screams she knows Parsiya well since many years ! he was the man who gave her mother and her support in Mumbai when they came here five years ago. At the station, Viplav also gets to know how this man settled Dhani and her mother when they arrived as refugees homeless fleeing to save their lives! So dhani reiterates there is no doubt in her mind that Parsiya would never do such a heinous act! Dhani appeals to Viplav , wants him to say something? but He sits there behind the desk in a trance.. Dhani tries harder , comes closer to Viplav appeals to him, Parsiya loves Vidha he has seen it with his own eyes, Parsiya can never kidnap any child he can never do that! she screams at Viplav.. The wicked witch worries her plan may back fire? But Viplav is away with the fairies , crest fallen he muses he thought she was only acting up her marriage with him, but here Dhani, does she love the man? Is that why she tries so hard to save him? Doubt begins to seep through into his heart.. He can't hear her she feels far far away..she feels his shoulder touches him to see if he's listening. He moves her hand off his shoulder and in a broken voice replies, my child is lost we have to find him. The wicked witch is delighted he's given Dhani the brush off!At last Viplav will now come to her .To me again there is a positive side to this scene , has to be Dhani spoke the truth and nothing but the truth! some issues come to surface regardsdhan's sentiment towards Parsiya.Yes in the main Viplav more or less ends up being in the same situation when Dhani left him.. pining for her if now doubt has crept in he will continue to delve on the fact that he has lost her after finding her. Yet due to Vidha he will continue to find hope of love even in his doubt. Such is the power of true Ishq its hard to shake off. the scene is positive also because Dhani gives a reference to what life must have been life when they left Banaras and came to Mumbai ,far from easy. So the wicked witch can try to pull more shots of separating them but it still seems a tall order!
Looking for his missing child somewhat ends up being second place, one can tell from his body language that spells mental absence as Kamini literally has to remind him, drag him! to the other police station where Parsiya is being served the third degree! While Kamini's son is being served a box drink elsewhere! to me no rocket science is needed to deduce that getting Dhani's so called husband, partner ,man whatever roughed up well and proper by the boys in blue.is part ofthe witch's plan. Parsiya too is stubborn as mule, firm as a rock with his relationship with Dhani and her child.The man is beaten black and blue but he sticks to his guns some new comer to Mumbai sought his help and made him ring a contact number which he needed.His pst track record of being a goon is used to frame but the big softie macho says that was his past ,ever since he met Dhani he's turned a new leaf! It's the same tale from Parsiya he didn't kidnap the boy! Looks like the constables lose their task of getting a confession out of him. no surprise! the little Boy Blue is plonked before a video game fed pizzas and boxed drinks to keep him under control, by none other than uncle warlock Tripurari . One thing has to be said the little boy blue Atharva is trained well his mother who shuts the impressionable five year old? By the power of video games so long a he stay's out of her face. little boy blue neglected produce of urban middle class! The lad wants his parents? Tripurari , gives typical answer to a child, later meaning whenever his black widow spider wills it.
Viplav's losing Dhani feeling continues as she turns up with Parsiya's bail papers ,god she really must love the man,to arrange for his bail.. a positive for point for their love!as Viplav only thinks about Dhani's efforts for Parsiya.For Kamini a big negative ,Dhani the once illerterate bimbo ,now knows the ropes of Kamini's trade! She creates a racvket her kids stil missing and the kidnnaper is being released she is told to zip up as the suspect is innocent till proven guilty,they should know they are both lawyers!yes that Viplav is a lawyer but she is a the devils daughter! Vindictive! Parisiya's release from the cells is a genuine shock to Viplav, he challenges the treatment a badly beaten Parsiya has received..but what Viplav receives is injuries ,lacerations to his heart ,his heart ,his whole being.. Dhani right before his very eyes ,is hurt to see Parsiya's wounds and bruises..viplav's eyes lap full of pain Dhani's touch on Parsiya's brusies.. every feel of her hand on this man wrenches Viplav's spirit ,the colour of his Ishq is remorse.. of when he had her but then he let her go..those were thefinger tips that once felt him tenderly ,today they touch another.. yes my beloved the colour of my Ishq is still you Dhani.once mine now lost..he looks on and grieves in the privacy of his heart. Parsiya signs the papers and Dhani pulls out her shawl, her mantle of care ,out of her tote bag and lovingly drapes it around Parsiya shoulders, cover of her support. Viplav may be heartbroken but he still is a compassionate man..apologizes to Parsiya for the what he is subjected too.. thus interact two honourable men, one rich and one poor ..but both remain influenced by the colour of her Ishq..Dhani.
To me, this may be perhaps the beginning of an affinity between the two men, unlikely as it may seem .As the common link between them is Dhani and vidha ! Parsiya also tells Viplav ,he's not sure what he thinks about him ?however ,he may be poor but not such a low life so as to harm any child! .. Viplav accepts his plea ,much to kamini's angst!
Two lions go into action! to safe guard the virtue of a lioness! As parsiya walks out free for the minute, the constables cut a cheap remark about Parshiya and Dhani, since they are seen as pair out of the ghettos without self respect , only to be poked fun at! Hey dude it s alright for some to have it on with some ex rich dame! This scene may seem ludricious ,but to me it celebrates bravado between two husbands, one ex and the other assumed present? both create pandemonium at the station! laying it into the police! to save their ladies good name! .Dhani yells at Parshiya to leave them! Kamini tells Viplav to leave constables, but he continues to savagely beat the constable. Its noticeable when Dhani commands Viplav and Parshiya to stop the fight. They both stop!! Kamini knows her worth, especially so since the fight is over Dhani's good name!! Dhani shows she has clout over both men , commands Parshiya to come with her. The debatable mantle? Dhani's shawl that Kamini picks up ,is the same shawl which Dhani brings for Parshiya, now kamini covers Viplav with it! To me its used to mock Viplav more that he is now a thing of the past for Dhani.. as her cover went on parsiya first? Or does kamini use the shawl to cover Viplav's ripped shirt to conceal tongues from wagging about her respectability? Hard to tell which one out of the two? But to me she will be a loser one more time.. She has to remind Viplav, what is he doing?they should search their son gets a call , leaves to attend it. Dhani is about to leave with parsiya...but Viplav looks stop her one look at him.. the colour of their ishq comes into play.. with longing he messages Dhani by the way he appears in the enclosure of her shawl around his shoulders he hugs it, sides his subble cheek and kisses the corner of her shawl with tears in his eyes. His eyes are fixed on her tearful face and one tear rolls out of his eyes down his stubble cheek.. the colour of his love is the truth that he loves her .. Dhani hurts badly, the colour of her ishq is sound of his manipulated words to kamini he made a big mistake in marrying Dhani! The colour of her ishq is she does not love him anymore! But Viplav's tears know ,Dhani lies.. she lies.. the colour of his ishq is to live with her lie .
Kamini attends tripurari s call , he wants to know for how long does he need to hold on to her on? He lauds her cold blooded wickedness that she is the viper who eats her own spawn for survival She snubs him calls human over smart idiot. He vows to show her his smartness, watch what he'll do to her soon.. so one evil to end the other evil hopefully.#Back at home , Dhani can't help but blame herself for the abuse both mental and physical parsiya had to endure just because he went through the lie,of pretending to be her husband on her behest. Dulari tells her to forget about it. The flower fairy turns up and expels all the horrors of the day for Dhani as she asks about her uniform for tomorrow her first day at her new school. Then the new question would her dad come tomorrow??dhani looks on sadly..the colour of her ishq can only hope ...
Yes call me foolish ,for saying Iliked the episode.. hum every bit of guile, bravdo , banaras ke Dhani now Mumbai ke ekdum kya lardki hai! ekdum fataqa! .. loved the her heer raanjha... saying it with tears.. and "I will always love youuu..." Viplav saying it with his fixed eyes hum beewafa tu na the.. maagar hum wafa kar na seki.. hamlet53 23.6.16
Precap: next day at the new school, Vidha tells Dhani that her dad will come! Dhani tells her to behave! as the Principal will get angry, and not give her admission. She tells Vidha to come,but Vidha wants to stay for her dad! Viplav announces loudly, you her dad has come. Vidha asks demon uncle...is he her dadPapa? Viplav looks at Dhani.. for the answer.. will he get his answer today??
