I should throw some confetti around today...the stuff I've been asking for for nearly 2 weeks now FINALLY came to some fruition today...yeh log 2 hafte freakin timepass kyun kar rahe the?😆



Also, are these ppl stalking the forum? Just yesterday we talked about the theme song and lo and behold, they played it like 5 times today😆...I should have asked for more stuff😆


Anyways, coming back to the episode...finally FINALLY that conversation with CONNECT that I've longed to see b/w Abhi-Meera...after two weeks of aimless floating around and kinda going nowhere scenes, finally they produced a well rounded convo b/w them...THANK YOU writers and whoever managed to bring this about👏


It's testament to how charming the convo and scene b/w Abhi-Meera was today that Ramraj ka random drama also couldn't mar it...some beautiful dialogues in their conversation...a good FLOW, a PURPOSE to the convo...man, I was just so happy to see this scene when I'd lost all hope of them living up to their potential😆...so the substance I saw in the first weeks isn't all lost...good to know.


Have to highlight some of my fav bits:

1) Itne dino baad Abhi gave that genuine waali smile😆...I was like finally hasaa😆...such an adorable moment when Meera teases him that if he's not around toh Pant bhavan ka kya hoga and it was such a moment of mutual camaraderie...THIS is what the show needs to build on...



2) "Aap samajh kyun nahin aati"😆...finally he verbalizes the expression that's constantly on his face...lol...and I liked how this dialogue transitioned into the discussion over the note...a more sober Meera, using the excuse of a friend's story to explain her own..."Mummy Papa ki galti nahin hai, woh ladki hi kuch alag hai...failure hai"...the analogy of the broken marble that no one wants...I must pause to state that Namita really came into her own in this epi vis a vis the emotional scene...totally nailed it, contrary to my earlier reservations about her ability to pull off such scenes...Meera's vulnerability, her low self-esteem all got touchingly depicted here...


3) The transition to Abhi's mountain example...lol at first when he was like "Meri khidki ke baahar...", I LOL'ed at how dono Abhi Meera ki stories are about things outside their windows😆


Anyways, beautifully tied together by Abhi...the immovability of the mountain doesn't make it a failure, because it plays its own role, has it's own purpose...itne pyar se samjhaa raha tha use...aakhir 13 namoono ko samjhaane ka long term experience hai😆


4) "Phir toh aapko koi aisa dhoondna padega jiski aap sunein, Meera ji'...I love how they eased into this bit...and so cutely Meera asks him, "Tumhein kaise pata chala?"...and he tells her he has many years of experience in hiding his own feelings so he can recognize it when someone else does.

What was lovely about this entire chain of events was the NATURAL way in which that moment of connection was established...so direly needed this was and in the randomness of the last two weeks, they weren't really going anywhere...glad to see them finally moving in some direction.


In that moment it was established that for all her "6 months ke courses wala gyaan", Meera needed someone who she would LISTEN to...and that someone turned out to be Abhi...it was a turning point for her and it was visible in the way she looked at him...something shifted inside.


5) The Friend's Request...LOL how cute was this bit...I really wasn't a fan the first time around Rohan randomly used Abhi's phone to send out the friend's request but this time they nailed the moment cuz it happened so naturally and it was such a Meera thing to do, the way she was peeking over his shoulder all pleased with herself...lol...and Abhi accepting the request with a smile.


I guess what really sealed the epi for me was the beginning of a genuine FRIENDSHIP...not some jump to random romance zone...and a real spark of chemistry today as well...both PJ and ND did really well today👏



Precap mein Raizadas and Pants ka drama as expected😆...I'm intrigued to see how Abhi-Meera will walk in...the reactions of the families will be worth watching😆...

Thanks, Mads! lol yeah humara time difference hai...I just got back from work and got around to watching😆

Yeah I think she said "Toota hua KANCHA"...and kancha means marble as far as I'm aware...those marbles that kids play with and if one is damaged, no one wants it.

Cuties 😳. Haha Anu you should be used to my silent stalking by now 😆. I have this habit of just reading our KY2 gang's posts and gaining perspective. I don't know what else to add since you guys say it all. I have a hard time articulating. Show change ho par I guess creatives stalking us won't change 🤣

@Sru: LOL yeah I am used to your silent stalking, isiliye was surprised to see you posting for a change😆

The entire friend's request bit was too cute for words...I'm so glad they didn't get into dialogues there...just Meera mischievously leaning over his shoulder and the shared camaraderie of their smiles even as they didn't say anything to each other...she silently requested and he silently accepted...and so began a sweet friendship:





Also the fact that Abhi just couldn't contain his joy at Meera agreeing to come back to Pant Bhavan...lol sooo happy they both looked in this bit...at one point it almost looked like Meera blushed😆

Anu!! they actually ended up playing a part of the theme song and it IS on the tune we love! I want to hear more though...the singer's voice seemed nice.
It was such a NICE episode through and through...Namita's episode to be precise. She totally nailed her bits today. I am so glad, like you mentioned, to see the initiation of a genuine friendship between the two rather than the stereotypical romantic track. I was quite surprised to see it go the way it did because i guess I kept expecting it to take the typical turn.
lol and that "burning designer clothes" moment was incorporated in such a pragmatic sorta way...didn't seem overtly dramatic at all.

@ the friends request-- Definitely a favorite moment from the episode. LOL Abhi seemed so surprised while Meera had the sweetest expressions ever! It seemed as if both were some school going kids who just became friends.
You know what Anu, I am so glad to see the mere lack of FL-ML "hating" each other before "liking" each other track. I like the fact that they are initiating Abhi-Meera story with friendship.

Over all, I was quite satisfied watching today's show. It brought that "genuine" smile on my face along with Abhi.

haha I knoww! That was the first thought that popped into my head...they gave us the words to the theme song just as we started wondering about it.


Re: the burning designer clothes moment...lol yes that was the big one you were looking forward to naa...and to add to the fun, she used PERFUME as fuel to light the fire...haha this girl clearly doesn't give two hoots about cosmetic embellishments.


What I loved about Meera today in the way Namita and the direction presented her...was the slow unfolding of some layers, a thehraav, and ultimately a shift in her...this thehraav was something I'd been wishing to see since a while now...like you said, it brought out that genuine smile after many days.


The friendship was a pleasant surprise to me too...although it's obvious that Meera too is kinda smitten now...she couldn't stop smiling today😆...and it was quite noticeable that her comfort level with Abhi really grew in this epi...quite a contrast to the way her discomfort around Aman was so apparent. I just loved how they eased into that friendship...there was something very charmingly refreshing about it.


Would this count as smitten Meera?😆

Oh God!!!! I am so happy. I just had a smile while watching the episode today. I never expected them to make such a turnaround.I will have to rewatch Meera - Abhi scenes today😊

They managed to salvage Ramraj, his wife and Ammas character.👍🏼

I am like Abhi while watching Meera. Aap Samajh kyun nahi aati😆 These two were adorable today.

Meera uses her perfume for the bonfire😆 Things like these seems to come so naturally for her.lol. She also tells him something like oh slow motion. Rofl

When he asks that you came for a small chit in this rain and did not think at all before burning your clothes. She so calmly states, My clothes are important or your health. The whole family and pant bhavan depends on him. Put like that it seems such a normal thing to do😆(Meera Gyaan)

Loved the bit where Meera just says tumhe kaise pata ke main apne baare mein baat kar rahi thi. No pretending or trying to tell him that she was talking about a friend. The way she tells him was so cute.
Namita has done a good job of showing Meeras vulnerability.

So now they are officially friends on friendbook😆 I think when he says thankyou she keeps nodding her head as if thinking yeh chalu ho gaya sorry.. thankyou... banda nahi sudhrega..

I was missing Aman yesterday so he makes a entry..Lol. I loled at Ramraj saying Melord jab guest check out ho jaate hai wo hamari responsibility nahi.As if he was fighting in a court.

Precap: Seems to be a war between two families.Only Meeras parents are missing😆
