Mr. and Mrs.Bajaj : of transparency and exclusivity
The episode highlights exclusivity and transparency between them, what's happening between them is privy to them without anyone being able to decode or interpret it, even when the relation is open for all sorts of speculations , there is this strange confinement of their relation just for them.
He smiles broadly when he is bailed out, but then the confusions, he chides himself for the smile which broke unexpectedly, unknowingly .. he is knocked out of his thoughts, when she places her hand on his shoulder, now it was all about "them" no pretense, no interference, no fabrication, nothing to prove to anyone..it was just real, it's just them.., while earlier in the day, her touch and hold was just a pretense ... in his goofiness he forgets his jacket ..the walk from the cell to the Inspectors desk was symbolic, both of them untangled, uncaged the emotional bondings, they talked, conversed, communicated , now like a new beginning walking together .. past the khoobsurat mod/turning, leaving behind all the shackles ..
He hands over his phone to her asks her to watch it alone ... the transparency , she is important, she needs to know it and then the exclusivity , "sirf aapke liye tha" only she needs to know it, he doesn't care for anyone not knowing beyond her and that's how focal she is for him. he explains how he could have used it to teach a lesson to Mr.Basu, but withheld as she wouldn't like it .. as everything converges to her , what she thinks, what she wants, what she would want him to do .... his focal point
The kashmaksh bit was done well when they both reach out to open the car door, when Mr.Mehra calls him, he gestures "1 min" to her from the window ...before he goes to Mehra ji, it's a blink and miss bit , but I love such bits... he didn't just walk away, but tells her will be back in a bit , these are such negligible moments but very imperative in the long run if inculcated .
Awww Mehra ji and #MeJaj are absolute awwdorbs , he is such a shipper, he is wise, dhoop mein baal safed nahin hue inke...when he realized and confirmed with his boss if he the VP he was referring to . atleast now he can sleep well.. the goofy Bajaj when he was caught off guard was like a kid caught stealing a candy ...KSG is awwdorbs here , their entire convo was so much fun ..
The car sequence and the taxi sequence with ek mulaaqat were all done so beautifully with such subtleness , credit to those who executed and of course KSG and Erica, i like their aankhon ke ishaare ...the unsaid words, she asks him what happened with the car .. he goes around .. all confused with his own feelings and sits in the front seat... this time she asks verbally kya hua .. he who thinks she is inquiring about him... says "kuch nahi" to which counters then why is the car not moving , only for him to realize she was asking about the car ...
Driver suggests them to take tax, he says "No" , she says "yes" .. but he has to change the track ... "haan of course.. " 'hum log jaa sakte hain ek hi taxi mein "
The set up, the wind, the lighting, the song, enhanced and elevated the walk, all we see is goofy Bajaj who has eyes for her, ... the instant pull yet gentle hold more like there is touch yet no touch, it was so subtle and done so beautifully , again it's "them " alone in those moments .. no pretense .. again credit to whoever conceived the bit and executed it , so well done ... after much apprehensions, he takes the front seat in the "same ek hi taxi" lol
"I will bring him back .. " her words to Anurag yesterday, today when he opens the door and speaks, she awaits for her husband to come by and stand by her side, only then she walks in along with him , she said in unspoken words that I got him back .
"Thank you for opening the door Mr.Basu" , can he get any more sassy and can anything beat his savage, which is his now his middle name .. Rishab Savage Bajaj
Anurag tries to downplay it, but Prerna reveals how she saw the recording of his planning ... and they say how it is not shown to police .. leaving Mr.Basu shocked ..
Jab main galat hota hoon toh apne khilaaf koi saboot nahin raktha , jab main sahi hota hoon, toh sahi hone ka saboot hota hai mere paas ...hamesha .. that's Rishab Bajaj he is not the one to be sahi all the time or galat all the time, he owes both sahi and galat ... a perfect grey ..
he didn't say he never did anything wrong, he says he never leaves a trace when he is wrong ... that oozing self confidence and looking into the eyes and saying I will never leave a trace when I err is so intimidating overpowering and challenging for the opponent and so does his always having a proof for his innocence is again such a subtle threat/warning don;'t you dare mess with me, you will not be spared if you mess with me... both the statements are such intense level of intimidation
Anurag asks why did he surrender then ? explanations main sirf unko deta hoon jo mere liye matter karte hai Mr.Basu ,.. unfortunately u are not one of them ... the exclusivity resides only with his wife who knows what she ought to know
Bajaj was almost about to reveal to the family , only to be stopped by Prerna .. no words said, she just holds his arm and nods in negate... requesting him "NOT to reveal" he assures with his eyes... "Prerna maine thab bhi wahi kiya tha jo aap chaahti thi , aur main ab bhi wahi karoonga jo aap chaahti hain " her hold on him is much more intense and deep rooted than her hold on his arm ... he will do anything for her and she knows it and she asks him not to reveal and as expected he does ... and not to miss that subtle warning to Tanvi to mend her ways .
Bajaj pep talks with her, not to blame herself for anything or feel bad for she trusted someone who was not right this time.. Prerna says despite knowing Anurag is wrong, she cannot stand against him... that's more like a cliff hanger for weekend .. 😆 there will be continuation statement to this... that she stopped Bajaj earlier only for Kaakima and even now she wouldn't go against him for his family's sake .. Anurag is no longer her focal point .. it's not about him anymore .
The goofy yet ruthless Bajaj is such a splendid mix in the character and KSG , I am really short of words .. each day I can't get new adjectives to praise him... he is impeccable flawless and soo natural .
