Please tell me what your reaction was to the first PRB marriage track. Were you on board with the new introduction to the serial from the moment RB walked in or did it take you time to warm up to him?
so finally.I am here to share this .. 𤣠sorry it got a bit long ...
It was like 18 years ago, watched it from first episode, like I watched many "K" shows on TV back then š...
so the very first day Bajaj made his entry in that white suit , at Mr.Singh's party , I was so enthralled , that salt and pepper look, his walk , the suave , authoritative RB , instantly captured all my attention, that first meeting of Prerna and RIshab Bajaj in Mr.Singh's party sealed it for me .
He's got the best dialogues , his mannerisms , body language, business knack where he leaves the opponents with no choice, that famous cricket match rights .. so many which made this character so enticing for me in the initial days and the best part was his "Aap "
I was instantly onboard the moment Rishab Bajaj walked into the show .. till the end
~~~~~~~~~~
PRB first marriage , this got to be one of my favorite track of theirs , this marriage was a conditional , an unusual , she left not just her love but her kid , the sacrifice was paramount, but what I liked is Prerna's strength, she never played victim or self pittied, she was graceful and accepted the new life bestowed on her as Mrs.Rishab Bajaj and a surprise element of 1 special needs kid and 2 notorious teenage kids
Prerna and RB's discussions were so mature about love, life, decisions, choices , I am referring to a dining table scene of PRB after marriage, ( will let u know about the episode number later on ) the discussion was soo good , their differing viewpoints , their backgrounds, their experiences , the talk about it, they started understanding each other
and the best part of that track was how Prerna made that house into a home, how she made those kids who called their dad as "Mr.Rishab Bajaj " and her as "step mom" came around to refer them "dad" and "prerna mom" this particular phase gave me the vibes of Parichay movie, Hrishikesh Mukherjee's movie .. where Jitender character introduces the kids and father, he Prerna did that she got the kids and dad close to each other , in the process she becomes that "ahem khadi" which kept the family together
Prerna slowly understands Rishab is not bad as she assumed him to be , the first realization when RB was accused in Anurag's accident during durga puja in kolkata .. that police station scene where RB proves himself innocent, Pre immediately writes an editorial in support of RB , to clear his name ..
I still remember the unnamed pang in Pre when Menaka comes into their life , trying to snatch the kids away .. Kukki bday scene was so poignant
during this phase of first marriage , they were bound by respect, trust, understanding, admiration , friendship and lot more , there comes a time when Pre was all waiting to accept RB , but that unfortunate accident ...I always wonder what would have happened if not for that accident , i remember telling my mom RB is not dead he will be back like Mihir šand in couple of episodes they showed him being in a hospital in Aus,.. phew lol i was glad he is alive and the actor and character both will be part of this show wasn't sure for how long but š
every day on tv used to look forward to PRB u=scenes post their first marriage, there is a certain pull in post marriage love stories , there is lot to look forward to as one has to let go the past , accept the present, trying to know the person , exploring each other, being amused, surprised , in awe or laugh , each time u know something new about ur partner .
I think it's already so long .. but i have so many favs in this phase lol I consider it as a foundation of their relation
