IKRS Friday 1st July 2016 ep 292 My Take ~ tug of war
A struggle between two evenly matched people, groups or influences is how its described in the athletic world. In the story of Ishq ,two humans who like each other but currently give mixed messages both to themselves ,the world. Every move they make, the statements and messages they give , silent or spoken somehow seems to be contradictory. The episode holds evidence on how much Viplav can take in terms of emotional mental and physical levels. Whereas on the other side ,its how much rejection can Dhani bear him down with? The scenario and the decision to demand for his answer from Viplav is a bold step and gives the pair of them a platform upon which they test their mettle. fight it off as it is, to reach an outcome. Whichever way, the outcome goes, the colour of their Ishq will be evident..
Kamini presumably works at Dhani s divorce from Viplav ,is interrupted by Atharva who asks for his dad . The witch never fails to manipulate people for selfish purposes, snipes at the child, his father prefers to play with that Vidha rather than him. She tells him not to disturb her. The boy always mopes around her, forever told by her to do his own thing. Comparatively Dhani as a mother gives her full attention to her daughter Vidha. Hence Atharva left to his own devices rings his father Viplav , asks him if he was playing with Vidha ?Viplav denies it, tells him he's occupied with work and will return home shortly to play with him. As a good father he wants to know if the boy has eaten etc? Dhani wanted Viplav out of her house , yet when she emerges out of the room where she detained herself from Viplav with Parshiya , wonders if Viplav had gone eventually? Dulari tells her he attended to his phone and sauntered off. Hence the storm named Viplav seems to have died down. But in Dhani the storm that he's gone! still rumbles on and she tries covers it, a by her whinges, it is pointless his coming to her home. she can do without unpleasant scenes before Vidha. In my opinion Dhani appears a sensible mother who shows awareness of shielding her child from undue emotional stress on the one hand. But on the other hand she seems to deliberately ignore the back lash of denying Vidha the true joy that Viplav is her real father.Dhani makes it known to Parshiya and Dulari she is not a tough cookie! Let it be known to him! that she is not the old Dhani who would stand anything! she'll show him! Dulari wonders and asks her buchaiya ,if her huffing and puffing is angled towards her or Viplav?she was the one who wanted him gone! so why this muttering now? Dhani realizes her pretend angst at Viplav is pretty transparent . So she gets on by giving Parshiya business instructions for the day plus, announces she is leaving to collect Vidha from the bus stop. Parshiya accompanies her too. Viplav s test of how deep is his love for Dhani ? how lasting is the colour of his Ishq had already begun when Dhani had shut herself off from him, with Parshiya. Now it continues as Viplav watches them,leave! he is human so he reacts with a kick in space. But Viplav has to keep in mind that he waits for her answers and thus he has to wait like a patient lover. For he knows Dhani well..that she too knows he is not one who easily gives way! and all good things come to those who wait! Dhani brings flower fairy from school they stroll down the narrow street . Vidha shares, her teacher awarded her with a well done for English! thus Vidha tries it on with the flower queen wants to picked up by her mamma for the rest of way back to her home. Dhani reminds her poppet of her wound and then just like the good old days .. Viplav! the demon! pops out of nowhere and swoops his flower fairy in his arms and gives her a loud smooch on soft chubby cheek! the father and daughter hug each other! whose to stop them Dhani? she glares at him ,thought he's left.. he glares back, and he thought she knows full well! what he's like.. stubborn. Dhani is pleased he is still about but she has to give him attitude for him and the world to see. Dulari watches the pair of them Viplav carrying his daughter , Dhani clearly not approving of him still being around as an older parent Dulari feels she is put in an awkward situation.. she believes in Viplav's rights as Vidha's father, but also recalls the hell she and Dhani had to go through when they fled Banaras! Viplav gets another rebuff from Dhani right in front of his daughter she asks Vidha to get down demon uncle has to go home too. Dulari too clearly supportsher buchiya as she takes away from viplav his flower fairy's emotional reason to persist at his demand for answers! oh dear! Viplav rebuff! ends up in the house waiting waiting. Dhani yells at him! still here ! she tells himto leave! Viplav rolls his eyes.. he will as soon as she gives him the answer he needs! Dulari has to remind this bickering pair, Vidha is home now she doesn't want any altercation between them before Vidha! Dhani's further emotional whack! at Viplav, he watches as she carries her flower basket in a sulk! leaves the room where he sits and in a hissy fit she sits on the porch outside tending to her flowers! Draws public attention from the neighbours gives them snide comments its so suffocating inside! Viplav in great emotional discipline of the colour of his Ishq accepts her comments even though they gnaw at his heart! loud enough to casuse emotional wounds! But the bond between them turns up to apply the balm of Ishq that exists between viplav and Dhani! Vidha! Children they say are hypersensitive to atmosphere she can sense her mother sits outside and demon uncle is inside.. and may be the flower fairy can also sense that there is a falling out between them? Vidha tries to find out why her demon uncle is here? is to play with her? now it really hurts Viplav , Dhani's out of order behaviour!he requests Dulari to call Dhani inside the house ,for if he calls her she is sure to reject .. Dulari reminds him , well the pair of them are as bad as each other! stubborn as mules!..viplav realizes in Ishq one has to show flexibility.Egos have to be set aside and the others safety has to be kept in mind..right!he goes out reasons with her, the weather is inclement , her wound has not healed yet ,she will get ill ! if she won't look after herself than he will! but Dhani slams his effort.For the wound he gave her five years ago still festers inside her so he need't worry about her! she winds him by her childish attitude, he roars at her , she needs to get inside the house and keep in mind that she suggested no drama ! now she is the one who creates a scene! Dhani does as he says, but slams the door loudly in his face! but Viplav too has a hide as thick as hers..it's Ishq ,makes lovers tough !so his reply is he is not budging without getting his answers from her!
Love is as tempting, naughty, but nice as chocolate! which his flower fairy gives him as he waits like a naughty boy grounded outside the house.Vidha gives him the chocolate and he plants another kiss on her cheek! Viplav endures Dhani s emotional onslaughts with a smile, the gods systemically pick up his wounded spirits with timely intervention of his flower fairy his smile giver!
Here comes the rain! Little flower fairy sleeps close to mamma's her bosom.. her daddy though is out in the pouring rain! being healed from any residue of rage at Dhani. The rain purifies his Ishq further..the more she rejects him the more he will love her. The rains purges his spirit ; oh wounded heart , accept the blessed punishments she hurls at it.. its a justification for all the suffering and smarting he caused her in the past five years.The rain washes away any aching she causes him by her resistance ,her insult ,her rejection.. all trickle down off him from head to toe. The rain gives the completely soaked Viplav the hope that Dhani too will not be at peace too, if he is not. The cry of his heart is not unfounded, as it reaches Dhani. Her feet takes her to the window and she wonders will he be out there? she knows him well yes there he was.. oh my beloved why are you doing this to yourself? Why this nearness to you but still misunderstandings driven distance?. why my beloved do we go through this separation oh beloved ? who is at fault , her ? him? or destiny?, cries Dhani' s heart as she peeps out at her soaked beloved!! Viplav turns and catches a glimpse of Dhani peeping out at him.. give me all the pain you can Dhani.. can't be worse than the pain he suffered when he hadn't seen her for five long years! Viplav wipes the rain from his face,yes finding her again , takes away the bite of any pain she gives him now! Insidethe dry house, no way can she eat knowing he's out there! once more she peeps and he looks over his shoulder and smiles cheekily! Yes he ate too.. the chocolate his flower fairy his daughter gave him! Aitshooo! Aisthoo! and down come Dhani's arms! within seconds she was out in the rain with an opened umbrella offering him cover . Proudly he glares down her at her and she looks up at him sheepishly it's not an outward canopy he seeks! It's her answers that he needs! She argues he's sneezing he catch a chill.. and he sneers ,her door is shut! yet she hears him sneeze! can she not get it? nothing has changed! even today he can make sense of her silence, he can read through her flapping about! He can see clearly in her eyes that she loves him , so quit all this charade of being married! or tell him that he' s lying? But he knows very well she is exactly where she was where he is today! she does love him doesn't she? look after five years god has given them the chance to meet again! he hangs on to her hands and pleads nothing has changed! If destiny has made them meet again there must be a purpose to it! he will set everything right now! but at least talk to him he begs her under the cover of the umbrella! a symbol of temporary respite from an intense situation.But a sign she loves him, wants to provide cover.
The neighbourhood cover for dhani arrives! as neighbours turn up in the rain and challenge him for annoying Dhani ..she recedes into the house thinking they should send him packing away! she is mistaken as the neighbours can see he is no hoodlum but a decent man..they put up banners for cycle race.
Next morning knock on Dhani' door she thinks it Viplav? but its Parshiya. Later riding his bike they go and check the flower order they placed.They vroom off! Viplav emerges from the side with the folded umbrella in his hand. Its return another excuse to interact with her. On their way, Parshiya moans about the monsoons, heaven alone knows how the flowers fare? Dhani shares her concern about Viplav,with him..its all the way from the house to the flower shop.. Viplav this ,Viplav that.. Viplav.. he stayed in the rain all night! might have got ill? didn't even return home, she tired to give him the umbrella he refused it! he catches a chill very easily.. he doesn't understand ever! he is so stubborn! Parsiya brakes his bike tells her the shop has arrived! an embarrassed Dhani says, was busy chatting didn't notice.. The shop is gutted flowers damaged. Dhani decides , has to be cleared! Parshiya offers to clean up! Viplav slips in, to help clear up! Dhani gives him the final back off! has he turned up here too??and he retorts, give him the answers he needs, and he'll leave!
As Dulari says with a roll of her eyes, they both need to decide where this sulking, bickering and squabbling is leading to?is it high time that Viplav and Dhani need to resolve their differences ? before the witch throws her spanner in their works! Hamlet53 2.7. 16 ..have a great weekend.
Precap: another fall out between Dhani and Viplav in the flower shop
