The firewall between the light and the darkness.


'Aaj tak tu kehta raha aur main sunti rahi. Aur main sunti rahi. Tu dil todta raha aur main tukdre sameti rahi. Lekin aaj nahi. Aaj pehli baar mujhe dil joddne ka mauka mila hai aur main yeh mauka haath se nahi jane dungi. Aaj tujhe kasam hai teri dusky ki, jo main bolungi tu wahi karega'.

'Maya, Maya, Maya. Aaj nahi Arjun, aaj tu bolega aur use sunna padega. Tune Maya ko Vachan diye hai na aur Maya ne? Usne tujhe kya diya? Kuch bhi nahi. Tu Maya ke liye apne pariwaar se ladke baitha hai aur who tere liye apne darr se nahi lad sakti hai? Aaj yeh faisla hokar rahega, Arjun. Maya ke liye kya zaruri hai, tera pyaar ya uska darr? Aaj teri shaadi hokar rahegi Arjun. Ya toh Maya khud tujh tak chal kar aayegi ya hamesha hamesha ke liye tujhse dur chali jayegi'.

'Arjun, aaj teri shaadi hogi lekin shaadi kisse hogi uska faisla Maya karegi. Aaj koi toh tera haath thamega. Aaj iss mandap pe ek dulhan zarur baithegi. Ya toh Maya ya main. Ab dekhna yeh hai ki Maya ke pyaar mein kya itni taakat hai ke woh apne saare darr bhula kar mujhe rok paati hai ya nahi'.

Until till this point, every character in there was present to do just one job like all the characters and extra characters do in wedding tracks, express shock. Camera angles pan up, down, left, right, zoom in and zoom out. Except for Arjun whose is stumped as Saanjh blew one wicket after the other and Jhanvi whose still desperately banging the door of Maya's room.

Lagta hai aaj mujhe mere pyaar mill hi jayega...'
Saanjh is just about to take Arjun's hand in her and the very moment, Maya makes her entry with her patent dialogue,

Ek minute, Saanjh'. Maya proceeds to enter the mandap and Saanjh stops her.

Nahi Maya. Yeh raasta ki ladki se kisi ki dulhan hone ka raasta hai. Kisi ki izzat banne ka raasta hai. Aur yeh jo raasta hai na who akele tay nahi kiya jaata'.

Maya takes Saanjh's hand and proceeds to Mandap. Saanjh makes a sarcastic taunt in an attempt to pacify her pained self.

Maya, iss duniya ko na tumhare pyaar ke liye jagah banana padegi. Jo vishwaas hi andha ho woh kya pyaar ka raasta dikhayega. Pyaar apna raasta khud hi bana leta hai. Har vishwaas se, har toofan se, har darr se'.

'Ab mujhe kisi ka darr nahi hai, Saanjh. Maine apne har darr ko hara diya hai'.

'Arjun aur main, ek aakhiri vachan se bandhenge. Bolo Arjun, zindagi bhar mere saath bandhne ke liye taiyaar ho? Mujhe mera aakhiri vachan doge?'

'Tumhare liye kuch bhi hazir hai, kya chahiye? Meri jaan?'

'Haan'.
More aghast and shock expressions from everyone follows.

'Vaada karo mujhse ke hum saath jeeyenge aur saath marenge, tumhare bina na main ek saans lungi, mere bina na tum ek pal jeeyoge'.


Keeping everyone aside, unke shock reactions dekh dekh kar, bore ho chuki hoon. 😆 Saanjh's expression is what interests me. She doesn't look horrified but she realizes the gravity of Maya's words and she understand the implications of those words better than any person under that roof and just as about Arjun is going place his hand in Maya's, Saanjh places her hand between theirs thereby nullifying the effect of the vow. Maya, though, looks at her with an expression is literally translates to, I have already stabbed you 10 times in my head'. 😆

'Pyaar saath marne mein nahi Maya, pyaar saath jeene mein hain. Apni saanse de kar apne pyaar ko bachane mein hai. Khud doob kar, apne pyaar ko sahara dene mein hain. Apni khushiyan dekar, apne pyaar ko hasi dene mein hain. Pyaar who nahi hai jo saath marta hain, pyaar woh hai jo marke bhi zinda rehta hai'.
She asks Arjun to instead take a vow from Maya this time.
'Hamesha ke liye, usse apna pyaar maang le'. The hand which always extended to give has turned upside down to take this time.

'Saathva vachan mera hoga. Vaada karo, jab tak dil dhadkega, dhadkan meri hogi. Jab tak saansein chalengi, jaan meri hogi. Jab tak zindagi rahegi, pyaar sirf mera rahega. Tum mujhe pyaar karna kabhi nahi chodogi'.

Translation : The 7th vow will be mine. Promise me, as long as there's heart, there'll be only one heartbeat; mine. As long as we continue to breath, there will be one life; mine. As long as there is life itself, there will be only one love that survives; mine. You won't ever stop loving me'.

Now, please visit this vows thread and read 6 vows Maya has taken from Arjun and what he in return promises. Each of Maya's vow is grossly self-centered and reeks of perilousness. Those vows weren't about 'us', 'you and me' but 'only me' and each of the vow Arjun gave in return were the ones he gave in honestly and they spoke about the concept called 'us'.

Saanjh's wise intervention led to Arjun asking for a vow that had the potential to nullify all of Maya's 6 vows thereby making 7th the only and the most crucial one. His vow essentially took away the power from Maya and established a sense of a higher power; love, in it's purest and real sense. Because? Arjun's love isn't lethal. If the power is taken away from Maya and given to Arjun instead, there is a greater likely hood for a successful marriage and the triumph of a love that does not destroy but create, nourish and preserve.

'Jo maan rahe ho, usse sambhal paoge?' Arjun nods in agreement.

'Tumhari zindagi ke gale mein meri pyaar ki dor rahegi. Jab dur jaoge, tab yeh gale ka phanda banegi. Aur paas rahoge toh gale ka haar'.


Translation : The neck of your life will be tied around my love. When you try break free, my love will act like a hanging noose. If you stay close to me, my love will be a jewel around your neck.

A visibly perplexed Saanjh is just looking at Maya like she's something she can't even begin to comprehend who talks like that when making a marriage vow? And dearest brainless Arjun is smirking away as if Maya is complementing on him how he hot he looks in white sherwani whose 2-3 buttons are still left open, like always. Vandana seems like she'd go,'yeh dharti phatt jaye aur main uss mein sama jaun. PAR Maya ko saath lekar'. 🤣


Main tumse vaada karti hoon, ke apni aakhiri saans tak tumhein pyaar karti rahungi. Sirf tumhara pyaar, tumhara junoon, mujhe himmat dega. Aakhir saans tak'.


Translation : I promise you that I will love you as long as there's life in me. Only your love, only your obsession will provide me the courage. Till my last breath.

Me : *raises hand to ask a question* Maya devi, yeh toh who vaada bilkul nahi hua jo Arjun ne tumse manga tha? 🤔 How effortlessly did she change Arjun's version of vow to the one she wanted. Sigh. Aap dhanya ho, Maya devi! Aapko shakshaat dandwat koti koti pranaam.

So, basically, gaya Arjun ka vachan paani mein. 😆 Maya yields the power back yet again. The rituals finally begin and I'll just point out few specific things.

- Saanjh was the road Maya had to travel to reach Arjun.

- Saanjh was the one who played the peacemaker and was the bridge connecting Maya and Arjun.

- When Arjun caught Saanjh's hand and proceeds to follow her, his hand from Maya's easily slips away (unlike when Vandana had caught hold of Arjun's and Maya refused to let his other hand go, grasping it tightly)

- Her dupatta gets stuck in their gathbandhan, Saanjh manages to free her dupatta but does not in the process break it all together. It was only when Arjun got up, threw his dupatta tied up to Maya's did their connection truly break. All Maya was left was with their loosened up knot with no one on the other end.

- Maya had to request Saanjh to allow Arjun to be hers and the Channa Mereya sequence (beautifully played out, imo) signified that Saanjh had truly let go of Arjun's love so that the love she couldn't have could be Maya's.


All I mean to explain with those instances is, Saanjh is not a potential saut or a third one between Maya and Arjun. She is the firewall between the light and the darkness. The firewall between Maya (darkness) and Arjun (light), she is the one who essentially bought them together for a union, she is the one who will always be around to save the day if both Maya and Arjun need her to. Scientifically there's nothing called darkness. It is just light and the absence which came into being as termed dark/darkness'.


In fictional world though, Arjun is light, Maya is darkness then who combines the two of them? Twilight. Dusk. The literal meaning of Saanjh is twilight/dusk. Saanjh-Dusky never made so much sense before. Such a beautiful parallel to make! I'm actually impressed the writers thought of their names well enough and bought them into play in the story. I'll proceed to talk about the characters in play today individually in the next post.

*Next post under editing. Might take more time.

Red - Maya's dialogues | Green - Saanjh's dialogues | Pink - Arjun's dialogues.

Saanjh : The reason I love Saanjh first and foremost is because despite her imperfections, despite her flaws, despite her inability to put herself first, despite anything and everything that might not be so likeable about her, she's one character who always tries to be the better person. One character who has her principles, her values, her beliefs, her upbringing teachings by Prem-Suman cemented right where it is supposed to be; in her heart, in her mind, in her soul. I love how even though she fails at times, she gathers herself together and starts trying. She breaks, she falls, she rises. Tries and tries but never gives up on working for the good of her loved one's, be it Arjun and his family or her own family. She's not mahaan, she has her limits of bearing pain and humiliation which is why she desperately wanted to leave once her job was done. But she's not the kind to give up or run away at the slightest sight of trouble. She loves her loved one's fiercely and loyally and she'll do everything in her power to do the best for them. She'll make sure unless and until her loved one has broken the last straw in her, she stays. Stay with them, for them. Fight with them, for them. Even if it kills her, even if it kills her over and over again, she'll still do it. That's not obsession, that's not loss of self-respect, that's not being a doormat, that's not being clingy, that's not being a cry baby. That is just being the person she is. Let's say even if she is the kind of a person who'd let others walk over her time and again, she still believes in giving them as many as chances as she can. Because she values certain principals and places them on the highest pedestal. Places them over everything, even herself. Flawed, it is, very much. I say it is still very human.

The courage, the strength, the faith, the maturity with which she worked today for a greater cause just had me. It was not just giving Arjun his happiness, it was earning Maya a chance at love and life when she couldn't earn that for herself. She genuinely wanted the people and society to give Arjun and Maya a chance because everyone deserves a fair one. Hence, the dialogue, who vishwaas kya raasta dikhayega jo khud andha hai, pyaar apna raasta khud dikha deta hai'. And she said that while her eyes travelled from Arjun to Vandana. Vandana takes Suman's hand as a support because the taunt came from the girl she considered her daughter. For a moment there, I saw guilt in Vandana's eyes because she had let Saanjh and probably her own teachings down. It takes an incredible strength of character when you have to kill yourself within just so that the one you love can have his/her love. That courage, that spirit, that mettle is a rarity. She might go home, cry buckets of tears, crib, complain and be stuck forever in Arjun's love, that doesn't hold much account to me even though it classifies as wasting away your love and life. But at the end of the day, it is her choice to silently and distantly continue to love Arjun if she decides to. Unrequited love is a painful reality not many can feel/understand. 💔

Now, if anyone of you is about to tell me that Saanjh did whatever she did to be mahaan' or prove to the world as to how selfless she is or to do chance pe dance just incase Maya doesn't show up and she can marry Arjun, please STOP reading right now and kindly leave my thread. I'm not saying that because I am an alleged Saanjh fanatic or any such reason that must be popping in your heads right now, I'm saying it because I deeply respect that kind of character both in fictional and real world. So, I won't take such comments lightly this time around. I'm sure you'll find other threads where there'll be like-minded people, unke saath Saanjh ki dhajiya uda lena, mujhe no problem che. 😆

Maya : She's the sole reason I watch this show, believe it or not. The way her character is written may be extremely disappointing to me but she's still interests me. I have time and again stressed as to what qualities/traits of Maya I love and what I don't love about her. So, I won't get down to that now. She had me moved yesterday when her dream of a new life got shattered in minutes and she could do nothing but be rendered powerless, helpless and broken. It's never easy for a bride to abandoned moments before her marriage and worse when her alleged flaws/issues are at display for the world to judge and at its mercy. She had it all played out, all planned, all controlled, all set and one move by Ashwin and her palace came crumbling down. But today's Maya, she's the one I can't connect to, she's the one I can't feel for, she's the one I can't root for, she's the one I don't want to see (no matter how real it is) for the simple reason that it doesn't make me feel good. Saanjh may not be such a good judge for seeing through people's mean, manipulative and cunning nature but she sees through people's character. She knew exactly what buttons to push so that Maya came running down to the mandap. She knew quite well that if she places herself in Maya's position, it is something Maya wouldn't be able to tolerate or allow. Saanjh set up a game, player against player, competitor against competitor, possible prospective bride against possible prospective bride. She knew as long as Maya is alive and kicking, she won't ever let Arjun be someone else's, let alone Saanjh's. The person she's always considered a threat and an enemy force. Saw how bloody well that worked? Maya came running to Arjun jaise kisi ke haath uska tota lag gaya ho jiss tote mein uski jaan basti hai. 😆

What happens next? Goodness, Maya tried so hard to appear grateful, thankful, appreciative and indebted but all she truly felt was defeat. Maya's not known to lose, she doesn't like to feel inferior, she doesn't like it when someone else has a greater power. Saanjh shielded, enamored and empowered with her sense of love made Maya seem nothing in front of her. Saanjh echoed like a voice where every other voice dies, she stood like a mountain in whose greatness Maya appeared merely a rocky stone, she exhibited a kind of power Maya couldn't have imagined or yielded herself. I expected her to show at least an ounce of genuine gratitude towards Saanjh seeing what lengths she went to get Arjun and her married but alas! Maya's traumatic past and childhood which shaped up personality, her nature, her upbringing, everything that has made her, her, she knows and understands nothing beyond obsession, toxicity, dominance, authority, superiority, insecurity, abuse and power. All she could manage was to pretend that she was thankful to Saanjh but her expressions, forced and fake smiles, her demeanour, every single thing was a give away (including the screenplay and BG scores). Damaged, it is, quite much. But then again, still very human. Sigh. 💔 I hope this girl one day can free herself from her demons and gets all the happiness, love and peace she deserves to have.


Lastly, ____ Maya took over (koi bhi naam daal do bhai, blank mein. Obsessed, mental, lunatic, kuch bhi. Main bolungi toh kuch log protest pe utar aayenge. 😆) and practically forces Arjun to get married in a burning mandap. Major throwback to the hot air ballon proposal. Almost like, yahan se mujhe nikalna hai ya khud nikalna hai toh shaadi karne ka pading. 😆 They aren't even technically married, are they? I didn't catch 7 pheras happening, it were just 3-4 where Maya was in front, Arjun never got his turn to come forward and do the rest of the pheras. Oh, the way she had a subtle but creepy smile on her face throughout. 😳 After watching this delightful scenario, anyone and everyone present at the wedding are bound to think and believe that Maya has got some serious mental health issues. Kinda like, iski toh aata maajhi satkeli hai. That is a FACT. A reality. Vandana, Ayan, Shubh, Suman, all people around them, even their dead ancestors in grave would believe so.


Vandana : Uske baare mein baat karne ko bahut material milega baad mein bhi, especially Monday's episode. 😆 So, may be, later.


Arjun : Na munna na, tere pe apni energy aur dimaag nahi waste karni mujhe. 😆 Filhaal jao, police uncle ke saath. Phir Maya aur Saanjh teri jaan bachane aa hi jayenge. Jail ke shirts bhi 2-3 button khol ke pehen na, okay? Tata!


Ashwin : Alvida ek ache character. Tu tha toh ek number ka *beep* *beep* *beep* par tu yaad bada aayega because iss show mein crisply written characters ki dearth hai, you were still okay.


Phew! That got too long, I suppose. Thank you for the patience and hugs if you actually managed to read both the posts. 🤗

AHH THIS ^^^ These words, such incredibly penned analysis. This. is. gold. LIKE THESE LINES are why I love reading people's thoughts because you're left marveling at the gems they're, at how incredibly astute they're. this is so beautifully penned. Husna, I always love and nod at everything you write and you already know that. 😆 I won't last this show without you and reading your pov after watching the show is always the best part because you take all that khichri of thoughts inside my head and pen it so beautifully and grant it such a great insight and vision that even alludes me and i'm like SO GODDAMN TRUE!

This show is saturated with symbolisms but some of them (very few really 😆) truly leave you in awe.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
^^^ THIS RIGHT HERE! This says everything! EVERYTHING. You already know all my thoughts and Pov on Saanjh, Maya, Arjun and the show and there's not much I can add to the beauty that this post is. Every word and sentence is a deep reflection of the characters, the show and plot.

But I think i'll say this.
I've always always wondered if there's truly a line between wrong and right. Always wondered what scale is everyone measured with? Does my flaws and past grant me a free pass whilst yours don't?
I read an amazing answer on an information changing site once. The question was what is the most unfair advantage a person can have? And someone replied with luck.
On introspection I realized how true that can be. Not in just the sense that someone born with riches always have an unfair start/advantage on those born in poverty but in how they're brought up to. Someone who's lucked with great parents have a great advantage on someone who is dealt with a shitty fate, shitty parents and shitty life. And I've always wondered about that. Is it really that? Are we all really unfairly challenged? Does one have the right and justification to do something based on their past whilst the other doesn't? Is someone really more sorted and likely to be happy if they've a good past than those who've had a bad one (through no fault of their own)?

And while it's all purely subjective I also realized that the starts we get don't define us. It is the choices we make that defines us. OUR CHOICES. Someone (with a bad past who has been given immense pain, agony and has faced the worst the world has to give ) who chooses to help people, to save them from pain and agony because he himself has known what it's like to be in the throes of one, who knows better than anyone what it's like to be hurt, alone, hungry, lost, chooses to save the others from the pain of this very thing will ALWAYS ALWAAYS be better than the person who has gone through the same past yet knowing the pain of it still chooses to do the same to others.

At no times are we truly handicapped by our pasts. We can make the choice to step out of that circle, to break the chain, to make the choice between what is difficult and what is easy.
Nobody cares if you win or lose at the end. No, it's about making the choice to struggle for it regardless of what the outcome will be.

At every given point life is a battle and our choices define who we are. The choice between what is right and what is easy. What is right and what is comfortable. Which is why I loved Saanjh today. More than her choices it's her effort, the though put into the wheel of that act.

How incredibly beautiful was that moment where she who had loved him all her life. YEARS AND YEARS AND YEAARS, always had seen this day for herself, gave him to Maya with no malice, not the slightest of ill intention in her heart. And when Arjun followed her.

People tend to forget that life is more than your love interest. Not everything surrounds the person you love.😆 Zindagi mein aur bhi important log hain.

I find it funny how we talk about society in the context of a bride and how she'd be ashamed but become the same society and shame the beautiful bond of friendship. The way people were going on about the blasphemy of him leaving the mandap i thought he actually left her sitting and went outside whereas he was right there, right in front of Maya, two feet away.
I've always said this and i'll say it again Saanjh is his home turf and i'm NOT saying it in a romantic context. She has been his home his rock his world in the past decades! D E C A D E S. YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS! SHE IS HIS FAMILY. HIS BEST FRIEND. And it was his wedding. She is as important to him as Maya is. HE LOVES MAYA. And he LOVES SAANJH AND THE LOVES ARE TWO WORLDS APART! I love my parents, i love my family i love my bestfriends! EQUALLY but the kind of love i feel for them is different.

Arjun doesn't have to be perfect, a saviour, a good man when it comes to Saanjh. She has seen him at his worst because she is his bff. He was asking her to stay because for him he has a HAQQ to ask his bff for something, even knowing how rotten, selfish and bad he's being in that moment. aren't we all like that? It was an equally emotional moment for both him and Saanjh and it was purely friendship and beautiful. And a loving, trusting partner will not only understand such a moment but always support her beau. It wasn't just Maya's shaadi. It was his shaadi too. And he couldn't do it without his bestfriend, the girl who's been his strength, his home for years and years. it was a human moment for them both and Saanjh truly understood it.

I actually found it quite a beautiful moment ^^ Saanjh is the only person who makes Arjun more human for me. 😆 Arjun-Maya toh flow above my head. hurr hurr.😆 phansi phanda aag waala passion mere palle nahi parhta bhai.😆

( AND I DON'T SHIP ANY OF THEM. Arjun isn't worth shipping anyone with😆)

COMING TO MAYA - -GAH YOU KNOW MY THOUGHTS! She is the reason i started watching this show. She, her complexities and the brilliant brilliant way CVs portrayed her character. And then somewhere in the transition they lost me. I don't connect to her anymore. Not the way I used to. I still love Jen's acting and how brilliantly she essays Maya but what exactly am I rooting for in here? Maya's logics don't make sense. Her love doesn't have a tad bit of concern for Arjun as an individual (all she wants is to control him), her principles (do any exist anymore?😆 ), her struggles (stalking bf and giving angry-hot looks is such a struggle😆) i mean I would connect so much more if she doesn't want to do something and morally struggles with it. We all root for a character because we care the cause they're fighting for. We love them and believe in them and want them to achieve their goal. Whether is slaying the dragon, defeating the dark forces, winning from your inner demons, getting the love of the person xyz, getting revenge, redemption etc etc...

But when it comes to Maya I have NO idea what i'm rooting for exactly? For her to get and control Arjun? I mean haven't she already gotten him? 😆 aur baaki woh toh hai hi tattu😆 And I REALLY don't care about him to give a hoot if they end up together or not. And it's not like she's done something to show me ke haan bhai she truly deserves him.

I think they made a very fundamental error by introducing Saanjh and Maya as the anti forces. This took all the focus from Arjun away. Now he's nothing but a crutch, a board through which they can throw their darts across. What is his use actually? It's all about Maya and Saanjh.

It's like no matter how brilliant an antagonist JOKER is, pit him against Indiana Jones instead of Batman and he becomes useless and ridiculous. Because JOKER is the antithesis of Batman. they're so interesting because they complete one another.

I still think they should've brought a love interest of Maya ki takkar for her in this show. Someone as cunning and manipulative or atleast sharp and shrewd so you could TRULY enjoy the games and the level. Yeh to poora pappu hai. bechara.😆
Maya's character is wasted on him. matlab isme nazar kya aaya hai aapko. someone you can really control?


Arjun I don't care about. jaa beta jail jaa😆

Saanjh i do care for, just like Maya, but what exactly am I rooting for in this track? idek where the show's going at this point. her to save Arjun? Read the above.😆 gah.


but i love analyzing with you. even though iv'e not seen SO SO many episodes. ashwin part was meh. how will a court case and proving innocence and all showcase the taglines of the show? Wasn't it supposed to be about an obsessive ott girlfriend and her boyfriend? i had thought the court drama will come into play much much later.

GAAH THIS GOT SO LONG. BUT I ABSOLUTELY LOVED YOUR TOPIC! as always. you rock.

Few more things to add 'cause the episode had a lot to be processed in terms of beauty of human emotions that I missed out on couple of points while writing the two previous posts.

- It is tragic how incapable Maya is of understanding a beautiful friendship. Arjun's I love you to Saanjh was purely in a friendly context and came out because he for the first time had seen and realised the depth of Saanjh's love for him. It was his way of begging Saanjh to not deny him her friendship without which he cannot survive. He needs his dusky in every capacity and universe even if the love of his life is Maya. It's sad that Maya hasn't seen, known and understood healthy relationships which does not allow her to allow Arjun have his loved one's around. The sight of Saanjh and Arjun in close physical and emotional proximity makes her just lose it which eventually caused the fire. Ironic how it's time and again suggested that the only who will bring upon Maya's downfall is Maya herself.


- Ashwin before dying has pointed out fingers at three people; Arjun, Maya, Jhanvi. Second time they're framing these three as prime suspects which further makes me think it wouldn't be any of the three, mostly likely. However, I still can't completely rule out Maya because according to the show itself, she's known to be capable of anything. In today's episode when she came down, she said I don't fear anyone anymore as I have defeated them all. Could be interpreted two ways, a) she meant she overcame her fear out of love for Arjun b) she just came back after killing Ashwin. All three suspect where alone for sometime with no ome having the knowledge of what they're doing but Maya's room was shown to be empty, like they're doing it on purpose to throw a hint.


- Either Maya and Saanjh might join forces together to save a framed Arjun but then Maya first needs to come clean of her past to Saanjh, leaves no scope of suspense behind her truth. Or Arjun will eventually be released and Maya's becomes the suspect thereby making Saanjh both discover her past and prove her innocent if she is not guilty of the crime.


- Didn't I say the events in promo have good chances of occurring in the episode too? 😎 Ashwin's breathed his last on the havankund.


- Since this marriage has been inauspicious from the word go (according to the show itself) and with the occurrence of so many negative incidents, I highly doubt this marriage will last. I don't mean ArYa as the endgame won't last. I don't even care about ships 😆, I meant their marriage.

If you can believe my word, I'm as neutral and as unbiased as one can get. I honestly do not give two hoots about who Arjun ends up with. I'm only here for the show and its content.


My posts are done according to my perception, the standards with which I measure a show to considered good, the set parameters I abide by to study or analyse a character, a blend of intuitive, perceptive and logical thinking and lots of hindi tv shows watching experience.


Of course, you're welcome to! 😳

this is a very beautiful post and you are probably right but I am so thick of saanhj as a character that the beauty u saw in her character went over my head after the episode and if anything I think there is no light in this show coz if arjun is light then I dnt know what goodness, transparency is,h e is too much of a flawed character to be good.either he is taking it or is a really duffer. I started watching the episode 15 min late so watched wen saanhj was doing her drama and something did not connect with me with aneri's acting wen she was uniting them. she looked like she was trying to guilt trip him from running away from his wedding . and if maya is supposed to be dark then all I can say is that if maya was not mad b4 thus she would definitely be mad after this wedding coz if saanhj.

@anni i think after reading ur post i shouldn't not watch the episode.

1 i literally could imagine the episode. u have given the finest of details.

2 ur post i am 100% sure beautiful than episode itself.


i am personally neutral to all actors. can't agree more on the description of ckt. the reason i defend saanjh ( not coz i want any pair or love the actresses ) is same i respect this ckt with flaws. the main reason i watch is maya's beyhadh ness. the least like ckt arjun . 100% agree with u.


coming to post ur funny comments really cracked me up yaar , kahan se utha laati ho yeh gems ? arjun smirks as if he got compliment when maya says her garland will be fasi ka funda !!! vandana 's expression description lol .


jail mein 2-3 buttons nahi pura shirt uttar jayega.


so who is ur suspect? does tymline indicate saanjh 's possibility? but it is so against her nature n principles.


aneir said she turned the tables n ur post aptly describes how saanjh turn the table. i think maya ko takkar ka khiladi mil hi gaya.

I am literally rolling with laughter at some of your comments 🤣 especially on Arjun.
I have to catch up on a few days episodes. Will be back to comment later.
