Farak Game: Level Two

This is starting to become like that episode of Friends where EVERYONE knows..."Do they know that we know that they know?"😆

Today, after moping around for half a day over Shivaay's childish antics to induce jealousy and get her to admit FARAK, Anika decided to give him a dose of his own medicine😆...and what a dose it was.


It is a beyond moot point now that the memory loss is fake😆...the Rohit scene had Anika through and through in every frame...so hilariously weaving in her fake memory loss too as a reason why she is feeling so flattered with the attention of some random guy😆...so WILY she can be when she wants to be😆


Billu toh pehli ball pe hi clean bowled ho gaya😆😆...all she had to do was take the name of another guy, and Billu ki seeti beeti gul ho gayi...so hilariously flustered he got...kaun hai, kyun hai, why are you entertaining him if you don't remember anything? 😆...by the way, in case some people thought he'd figured out her memory loss...well, you got your answer...he hasn't figured it out...got played by her easily😆😆...this is purely a farak game for him.


As if he wasn't funny enough sputtering as she detailed all the fun times she's shared with Rohit, Billu actually STOMPED on her phone? 🤣 Good god, he really is a tantrum throwing toddler...just proves the point every other day😆...btw this being his demo about "Aise dance kiya aevein aevein pe?" made it all the more funnier😆


So Level 2 of the farak game...Billu goes, "Oh so tum chahti ho ki mujhe farak pade?" toh Anika goes, "Mujhe koi farak nahin padta ki aapko farak pade ya na pade...aapko meri kisi bhi baat se farak nahin padna chahiye...toh bas, na mujhe farak pada raha hai, na aapko farak pad raha hai...NO FARAK".😆...we really need an Om right now with "What the farak, man?"😆😆


What are these two trying to do? 😆😆...Billu ka toh chalo I get that he just wants to hear FARAK from her😆...but Anika ka thought process is a total muddle right now in the writer's need to keep the "mystery" of the memory loss going...if she is doing this all just for the memory loss act, there needs to be more conflict shown inside her regarding the fact that TIA is marrying Shivaay and that should be bothering Anika, not just for the jealousy factor but cuz she knows Tia is playing Shivaay...instead, in this avatar, she just seems melancholic like a dukhiyaari patni, playing a bit of a martyr also as if she is sacrificing Shivaay for an NKK girl knowing that is what matters to him and his family😕😆...and it's at odds with these random moments where she decides to jump back into this jealousy/farak game...so where does this stand? She knows Shivaay cares for her, but thinks she isn't right for him so this martyr act? That's quite a jump from "He can never love me"😆...beech ka phase khaa gaye writers? Chalo ok.



The rest of the epi had more of Billu's conflict...ROFL mehendi ceremony ka naam sunke his reactions...first PANIC😆...then realizing he can score a point, Anika ko sunaa raha hai ki kal mehendi hai...and the way he was "describing" mehendi to Pinky...kya kar raha tha? 😆


Ek glass toh share kar nahin paaya Tia ke saath...badaa aaya shaadi karne usse😆...I liked that Anika managed to remind him of his own "Tumhare haathon se sab phisal raha hai" line😆...Dono ke haathon se sab fisal raha hai cuz they insist on being egotistical idiots rather than communicate properly with each other😆



The dream sequence was ummm interestingly edited😆...after a point, I had to laugh cuz it literally looked like a montage of romantic poses ek ke baad ek, without any flow😆...regardless, the song choice was nice and NM did a good job lip syncing it...Anika didn't have much to do other than just stand there, so😆...



I liked the last scene...Anika oh so relentless about trying to get him to remove that one rose petal from his kurta, finally gave up to go and do it herself but Billu who was anyways all enamored in the aftermath of his little dream sequence was just staring at her in a daze😆...the little bit in the end where he grabs her hand as it's moving towards his chest and raises his chin as if to ask her what she's doing😆...nicely done...this scene, both NM-SC did with a nice subtlety and it actually had more connect to it than the dream sequence.



Based on Pinky's repeated taunts to Anika and Shivaay about their relationship, I get the sense that they are indeed trying to set this up as Anika being a martyr and sacrificing Shivaay because she doesn't want there to be problems between him and his mother...I hope it doesn't go down that cliched a route also and there is a catch somewhere...I'm already tired of this muddled up version of Anika...overly martyr-like one moment, then overly wily and clever the next😕😆...pick a side, man.

Ok, so today was totally unexpected for me to see the wily and clever Anika beating SSO at his own game. What a game it was, a true turning point and also to see the dream sequence, that was another gift. LOL.

Romi enters the OM and talks to SSO as his well wisher. That done, he is still trying his lame tactics with Anika and clueless Reiki is wallowing in all the attention and pomp. Thinking she has scored over the lowly Anika... and also got her due from the Oberoi's.

One thing I notice, like mother like son. Shivaay has this habit of standing with his arms folded that makes him look more menacing or impatient or as the mood maybe. Pinky stood just like that when she visited her son and gave him a 'friendly' reminder that his mehendi was on the morrow. 😆

Rohit is a name that sso is going to dislike forever and may never hire a guy with that name, as he might be the one talking to his Anika. uff... the green horns sprouted in an instant and hackles were raised. Could not tolerate to see her laughing and talking with someone other than him. what a possessive and jealous husband he is. He is now acting like a jealous husband and Anika should throw his words back at him, stop behaving like a husband. It is gonna burn..

The mini tantrum he threw was cute, his every whim as a kid must have been fulfilled else he would have thrown a fit. Such a proper little boy he was of Pinky's and no wonder she can't let go of him. All this breaking and hurling things are rubbing off on his wife who is doing the same thing. BTW, did you notice, she has become more classy and speaks more English words at random. She throws them at him, while trying to make a point.

The lassi scene and the dream that followed was good. Anika looked sad and SSO had this hunted look while sitting with Tia. Checker blouse is going to mix acid... to keep Anika away from the wedding but SSO is going to stick to Anika or keep her around him with an invisible chain tied to him. He is waiting for her to make the move to stop the wedding, little does he know that he has to do it himself with no help from his bros or from Anika.

He is truly well shackled for life with Anika. Way to go, gal, dishing his own medicine back at him. This Farak game got to a whole new level.

LOL it seems like Tia's exit and Anika's fake memory loss are tied together so I'm not sure if one will happen without the other...let's see.


But for now, what's sorta irritating is Anika's confused behavior...on one hand, she keeps pushing Shivaay towards Tia, on the other hand, she goes out of her way to either jataao her haq on him or to prove to him that he cares for her too...You can't have it both ways, Anika😕😆...in this weird tug of war, it's hard to figure out what to feel in the scenes😆

Billu toh pehli ball pe hi clean bowled ho gaya😆😆...all she had to do was take the name of another guy, and Billu ki seeti beeti gul ho gayi...so hilariously flustered he got...kaun hai, kyun hai, why are you entertaining him if you don't remember anything? 😆...by the way, in case some people thought he'd figured out her memory loss...well, you got your answer...he hasn't figured it out...got played by her easily😆😆...this is purely a farak game for him. ek dum possessive husband mode main aa gaya tha anika ko toh bolta rehta hai why she behaves like patni but apna pata nahi hai ek dum typical shaki pati ban gaya tha


As if he wasn't funny enough sputtering as she detailed all the fun times she's shared with Rohit, Billu actually STOMPED on her phone? 🤣 Good god, he really is a tantrum throwing toddler...just proves the point every other day😆...btw this being his demo about "Aise dance kiya aevein aevein pe?" made it all the more funnier😆 her hair flip Man🤣as if he wasn't already super jealous she did that twice and he lost whatever control he had seeing that his questions were so adorable kaun arti kaun rohit kahan gaye kyon gaye etc etc 😆 & when she couldn't come back with a reply fast enough she went oh i toh lost my memory so mujhe kaise pata hahahah😆


So Level 2 of the farak game...Billu goes, "Oh so tum chahti ho ki mujhe farak pade?" toh Anika goes, "Mujhe koi farak nahin padta ki aapko farak pade ya na pade...aapko meri kisi bhi baat se farak nahin padna chahiye...toh bas, na mujhe farak pada raha hai, na aapko farak pad raha hai...NO FARAK".😆...we really need an Om right now with "What the farak, man?"😆😆 exactly the way she said No farak was the best i laughed so hard at her lambi si tongue twister wali farak statement


What are these two trying to do? 😆😆...Billu ka toh chalo I get that he just wants to hear FARAK from her😆...but Anika ka thought process is a total muddle right now in the writer's need to keep the "mystery" of the memory loss going...if she is doing this all just for the memory loss act, there needs to be more conflict shown inside her regarding the fact that TIA is marrying Shivaay and that should be bothering Anika, not just for the jealousy factor but cuz she knows Tia is playing Shivaay...instead, in this avatar, she just seems melancholic like a dukhiyaari patni, playing a bit of a martyr also as if she is sacrificing Shivaay for an NKK girl knowing that is what matters to him and his family😕😆...and it's at odds with these random moments where she decides to jump back into this jealousy/farak game...so where does this stand? She knows Shivaay cares for her, but thinks she isn't right for him so this martyr act? That's quite a jump from "He can never love me"😆...beech ka phase khaa gaye writers? Chalo ok. logic ko chod do writers are themselves suffering from memory loss as complicated and pointless this whole shitia shadi nonsense is i am enjoying it caz the fark game is actually entertaining me but yes i toh have stopped thinking ke anika chahti kia hai caz then it ends up frustrating me and i can't enjoy anything . i seriously don't get if she has her memory than why is she being mahaan and if she indeed have lost it than aaj kal toh she has forgotten about dushyant too kal tak yehi ladki sabke samne tia ka dushyant jaap le kar bheti thi aur aaj maze main letting her marry her pati parmeshwar matlab kia hai yeh? now she's isn't even worried about tia ki sadness



The rest of the epi had more of Billu's conflict...ROFL mehendi ceremony ka naam sunke his reactions...first PANIC😆...then realizing he can score a point, Anika ko sunaa raha hai ki kal mehendi hai...and the way he was "describing" mehendi to Pinky...kya kar raha tha? 😆 🤣 at his mehendi demonstration on his hands as if pinky nahi janti mehendi hoti kia hai Oh and his angry ainvayein ainvayein singing in the middle came outta nowhere but was hilarious and he also showed demonstrated the ainvayein ainvayyein hook step with his pinky finger to anika as if confirming she's talking about the same song lmao billu filmein bhi dekhta hai😆 that was such a cute touch and really entertaining considering it's the mighty shivaay

Ek glass toh share kar nahin paaya Tia ke saath...badaa aaya shaadi karne usse😆...I liked that Anika managed to remind him of his own "Tumhare haathon se sab phisal raha hai" line😆...Dono ke haathon se sab fisal raha hai cuz they insist on being egotistical idiots rather than communicate properly with each other😆



The dream sequence was ummm interestingly edited😆...after a point, I had to laugh cuz it literally looked like a montage of romantic poses ek ke baad ek, without any flow😆...regardless, the song choice was nice and NM did a good job lip syncing it...Anika didn't have much to do other than just stand there, so😆... i didn't liked it something was a major miss can't really point a finger at what it was NM did well with the lipsync still i think they should've not done that and let it play in BG from shivaay's POV



I liked the last scene...Anika oh so relentless about trying to get him to remove that one rose petal from his kurta, finally gave up to go and do it herself but Billu who was anyways all enamored in the aftermath of his little dream sequence was just staring at her in a daze😆...the little bit in the end where he grabs her hand as it's moving towards his chest and raises his chin as if to ask her what she's doing😆...nicely done...this scene, both NM-SC did with a nice subtlety and it actually had more connect to it than the dream sequence. my fav scene it was beautifully executed and just made the whole episode worth it i was kinda done and pissed off with the dream sequence so this came as a relief



Based on Pinky's repeated taunts to Anika and Shivaay about their relationship, I get the sense that they are indeed trying to set this up as Anika being a martyr and sacrificing Shivaay because she doesn't want there to be problems between him and his mother...I hope it doesn't go down that cliched a route also and there is a catch somewhere...I'm already tired of this muddled up version of Anika...overly martyr-like one moment, then overly wily and clever the next😕😆...pick a side, man. same and the shaadi better not happen ab toh ek dum dushyant ka zikar bhi band ho gaya which is kinda scary

That is the 'Spoilt Brat Avaatar' of the Great SSO around his wife when she shows tough love 🤣 🤣

I am sitting at the airport cafe, at 5:30 in the morn, waiting for my family friend to pick me up and writing about the epi that I just saw on airport wifi...God, I need medical attention!!😆

I liked the epi today and for one day, I'm willing to let the ML thing go...I agree with the whole friends analogy...if they say farkh one more time😆, mujhe koi farkh nahi padega because what can I do anyway except rant about the epi...😕

Loved the Rohit scene, Billu was what do you call it 'jal kar rakh hona??' And I loved him in the avatar! Meanwhile Pinky continues to be my least fav character in IB at present!! She has broken my hate-o-meter records!!😡 She called Ani mannerless today!! Can you believe it!!

The hubby wife continue to act like stubborn kids, and man did Ani score today!!👏 She won 3-0 to Shivaay...with Rohit, the whole lassi dialogue and the last rose petal romance😆...I think after the Rohit incident, Billu decided to keep the meanness to a minimum and moreover couldn't take his eyes of her throughout the mehndi...I do hope he did it because of her gorgeous hair and not the atrocious costume😆...but meh...Billu having day dreams about his wife and doing dream song sequences with her is first signs of his acceptance of his lowe for her and I'll take it!!😆😳

Meanwhile amidst all the phone convos and the pharak, one question that bugged me was where is Sahil??😕

I want some clarification on Annika..
Most of the scenes can be interpreted differently depending on whether she is faking ML or not..
So I am not getting to enjoy the scenes..

My fav scene from today is Rohit Scene.. 😆..
Nice comeback from Annika, to Shivaay's mean text messages 😆..
that scene to me was Annika 100%.. KKT does not know shivaay this deeply to pull that card ..
If Annika is faking ML, then what is her plan to expose Tia? Why is she pushing this marriage?

Shivaay looked so lost during the mehandi ceremony. Where is he going with this marriage? His motive is to get the video clip from Mrs K, but looks like he is more into "farak padtha hain " game right now..
His PI attempt and phone attempt failed.. so what next? His dream sequence, to me, also showed his fear of loosing her..
How far is he willing to go with this marriage?
You are so right, he cannot even bring himself to share a drink with Tia, even for pretendence sake, where will he marry her.. but then if he does not destroy the video clip, how will he get out of this marriage? Till now he is not suspecting Tia.. nor her Duyshant/robin connection.
There are so many open tracks, plot within plots that everything is so confusing..
May be the makers are purposely bringing the ambiguity to keep viewers hooked.. but its not workng for me..

I loved the Rohit scene but when I think about it, would Shivaay react like that? Would he so easily let Annika know his feelings? When did Shivaay start watching movies like band baaja Baaraat? He even knows the songs! Plus Annika has ML, not Shivaay.. Doesn't he know Annika has no such friend? A friend that flirts with her and she is acknowledging that Rohit was flirting with her..
This coming from a girl, who thinks, checking out is a 2 rs wala harkath..
I am not able to connect with Shivaay nor with Annika these days..
I could connect with Shivaay yesterday.. he was so in character..
A jealous shivaay , we got to see him during Daksh track.. He is possessive of Annika but he will not openly show that to her.. Today he was shown to be not only affected by a virtual admirer but he was shown so vulnerable that he did not even mask his feelings? He just walked right into the trap laid by Annika? I feel Shivaays transistion is happening in a random manner..were is the progress shown? One stage to other just like that? Or is it just me?

The lassi scene and the dream that followed was good. Anika looked sad and SSO had this haunted look while sitting with Tia.




Yes, he looked quite haunted from almost the get go in the mehendi sequence...even though he walked in and held out his hand for Tia. From the moment Anika showed up with the lassi, he seemed to lack the heart to follow through with his ruthless game...as if it was personally grating on him to see Anika being bossed around like a servant by Pinky and being made to feel lowly in front of Tia...he refused the lassi and didn't want any part of it...and he took it very reluctantly when Tia offered it...even as Anika's eyes were boring into him😆...until the moment where he randomly dropped the glass in a deadpan manner, not fooling anyone😆


And later on in the flower petal showering sequence, he looked particularly sad and haunted as he took Tia's hand to walk over to the settee...the dream sequence was the manifestation of all his yearning, a momentary fantasy he gravitated into as he felt Anika slipping away from him.

Funny and a great post !!!

What the farak indeed !!! Its farak enough to me - im totally confused with which ML world we are in

Did martyr Anika forget she hated tia universally ?
Or has shivaay forgotten to seize video tape?


Thanks for the laughs
