xocyn1758 and Her Pagal Girls

I am seriously so proud to be a part of this amazing thread with all the wonderful, brilliantly talented women who write and create masterpieces. We met, about ten years ago, women from around the globe… only goes to show how crazy we are about this iconic show Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon? My “pagal” girls, I call them, we have been through much together, happy and sad times in our personal lives, and we shared those moments these last ten years, just like we shared our feelings of IPK. I love every Blaster, deeply. So, let’s reminisce, shall we? Two families brought together by a past. Fate, call it; I call it Divine. What the Divine wants, the Divine gets; we should all remember this in our lives, things would go a lot smoother. A complex man, who has so much pain, it takes a simple solution of a middle-class zany girl to heal him, a sister's love, a villain disguised as a loving husband, and two wonderful families with deep hurts, secrets, and a Fate that will intertwine them in ways we just couldn’t believe. The show has love, hate, and deception all in one. We will never see this kind of passion and attraction in any other serial with any other stars; brilliantly done by all involved! I am an Italian American who fell in love with IPKKND and feels its heritage and culture in my heart! I am reminiscing about the last ten years, and this is one of my favorite episodes and writeup that I did. Episode 22 The Lucknow Express This episode is one of the greatest episodes ever filmed in IPKKND history. So many emotions going on and the tracks have been laid for the Lucknow Express and the destination is set. The episode begins with the wrath of the Engineer of the Lucknow Express. He retorts, "You ruined the show in Lucknow, you want to be noticed? So shut up and go now, put on this dress, or else." Decision made, and only one option for our Lucknow Express. The Goddess has been summoned for help again. The engine has been refueled. We will see...when we leave the station... In the meantime, the only thing that removes him from her is his sister's call. Anjali is happy her husband is coming home, and they are having a pooja. Please come and ASR says he can't, he has suffered a substantial loss. He has to stay on the platform. Will he board the Lucknow Express? Back at the Gupta house, Shyam is readying himself to leave, holding and then hiding a piece of jewelry from Buaji. They have this long conversation where some impressive words are spoken. Buaji: "Found the right person, found the right heart...to form the right relationship..." Shyam: "My heart is here, but when I am there, my heart is there!" Warning words... Passengers beware! Scene cuts to Khushi as she is calling home and Shyam answers. He is commanding most of the conversation when he realizes Khushi is quiet, he asks her, "Did they break the Lucknow Express?" She asks Shyam to stay because there is trouble at work… so it begins... Shyam's obvious obsession...he changes his plans to help Khushi. He is staying onboard the Lucknow Express. Khushi then refuels her engine with Devi Maya Goddess energy and says, "I will not accept defeat!!!" The Pooja has started Anjali anxiously awaiting her husband's arrival...the doorbell. Is it him? Back to the shoot… Jeff has got to go. Where is she? La goes to get her when suddenly she appears... THE LUCKNOW EXPRESS... in a red saree, looking absolutely stunning... frightened out of her wits... but there, ready for the shoot in her traditional saree. La is furious, but our Lucknow Express is ready to stand up for her beliefs "I WILL NOT, I CAN NOT WEAR THOSE CLOTHES!" SHE STANDS UP FOR TRADITION. WOMEN OF TRADITION. SHE WILL NOT CHANGE! GET ON BOARD THE LUCKNOW EXPRESS OR MISS YOUR RIDE! Thank God for Jeff, who agrees. He sees a different view through his camera lens. He asks her to STAND IN THE LIGHT, YES! this can work! As she turns around... ASR is coming into the shoot... and... stops dead on the tracks... HE SEES HER... THERE IS A DEEP STIRRING...YOU CAN SEE IT...YOU CAN FEEL IT...THE COAL IS IGNITED, THE FIRE IS BURNING, THE ENGINE STARTED... RABBA VE, RABBA VE, RABBA VE... Where is the anger? I only see longing... Their eyes meet... her dupatta slips off her shoulder... they break eye contact, and he realizes he is no longer mesmerized. He steps forward, ready to board the Lucknow Express, but with one foot on the step, he realizes, changes his mind, gets angry again... where's the dress? Jeff intercedes, to shoot or not to shoot, that is the question... He stares ... we wait with bated breath... ALL ABOARD! ALL ABOARD! ALL ABOARD THE LUCKNOW EXPRESS! DESTINATION HAPPINESS... that is to come later... He agrees... He walks away, just mesmerized by her beauty... never realizing he just got aboard... It has been ten years since that scene… a lot has happened...

👏 Love the ride of Lucknow Express...no doubt, whenever their eyes meet, sparks originate.

and love you too my blaster sis

Khushi, I love you

A poem by DurgaS

I had called to say that I was ok

Remove all worries in the hearts that lay

Your thought, your name touched a deep core

Unbridled emotions brought forth ashore

I had left you alone like a heartless beast

To my own heart never paid any heed

Strenuous it became going away far

Doors of the heart finally broke ajar

Every moment thereon I have thought of you

Every time I feared if I'd ever see you

Something I wished to tell you long before

Every day wondered if I'd ever tell you

As life hangs in balance on treacherous hands

Uncertain of the phase where our future stands

Overwhelmed to get this single chance

My heart leaps out to an uncanny prance

As I hold the line I can sense it's you

The breeze brings in the breath of you

I can feel the state in which you are

I can't help but say, Khushi ... I love you

👏

Beautiful poem D

Blue lines are heartwrenching

So true, that moment he felt as uncertain he could be that he might not be able to say anything to her again...and she felt that too

ahhh finally getting to catch up to some degree and read;

post one: the tag katelyn is so pretty!!! the poem. is really sweet as well. nostalgia truck hitting me from all ends here. the meeting of both on that fateful night, just poetic cinema is what it is.

post two: the edits of these two's second meeting with the first in the background is beautiful! honestly. and gahhh yess. they thought with their pasts, they've left their ugly meeting's memories behind but Devi Mayyian had other plans! the animated sigs are so beautiful!! the million faces of each other!

oh gosh you guys are right members came crawling from nowhere! I hope we keep the excitement alive for a while because I love being back here. I dipped out back in 2013, occasionally popped in in 2014, and 15 with Ek Jashan but this year marks 10 years and how could we not celebrate all that this show gave us. Idealistic love, hope, community, excitement, mutual understanding of pagalpan!!

the parallels with Hindi cinema and Hollywood in direction and scene inspiration is phenomenal. I absolutely love it! Arnav and Khushi recreating Juhi Chawala and Aamir Khan, is just

post three; I haven't seen Indi's username in ages and idk aik dum poorani wali feeling aa Gai! although I've canned my username so idk if may people have recognised me. 😎

pls I love Khushi's app shut up! including these small perks is beautiful!

the gif of her dupatta falling at his feet. ahh the way he had taken over how her life would circle around his without realising that in turn his would also around hers.

omg I love you guys linking the very OG Rabba Ve! so many feels.

post four; I love these write ups! just honestly! how did you guys get people buried in the trenches back to the forum I need to know the secret. I think besides Abavi, no one from redux came back 😭

can't believe I am seeing hotwa as an adjective again! 😆

the way these two were destined to meet! makes me almost want to believe in fate.

Aarwen, you DID NOT! this vm is bitwa just being horny af 🤣

ughhh the way this man was trying to kiss her since November and finally got laid the night before his wedding! also Arnav's eyes are so playful and full of desire consistently. He is like a horny 12 yr old middle school kid around her omg. This is the most hilarious thing I've seen plss 🤣

post five; omg every time I think about Khushi's expectations from Arnav I'm like girl you know you can do better. all she wanted was his attention, his love, just few phrases assuring her and one ILY sent her in a moment of bliss. breaks my heart how she realises and fully grasps how bad things must be for Arnav Ji to be nice to her.

the Heer Ranjha episode breaks my heart it was so beautiful but lol yes it being ipk it had to be one of Krishna's names for the tailors.

post six; BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL EDITS GUYS!! beautiful! this vm is less horny lol 😆 no but it's so beautiful and the first two episodes scenes just always get me! The fiery foundation between the two is magnetic.

Thnx Areeba dear, I remember you when I join the forum, in 2012 but never had a chance to interact.

hmm, sorry but blasters never left, many took some break due to their personal lives, I was always here. writing and editing and simply enjoying ipk my relaxing hobby.

True, it is unbelievably a phenomenon that didn't die even after 10 years.

Thanks for liking the edits and writing pieces.

Thnx for stopping by❤️

Written in the stars

By BarunDiwani

"Toh kya woh sach mein taare ban jaate hai?"

"So do they really become stars?"

The first blessed line I ever heard Barun speak, had no idea who/what/where the show was about. but i could feel his pain, it gripped me. A handsome grown man asking some girl "so do they really become stars?" The woman touched by his innocent question answers him in her own way, "baat vishwaas ki hai (its all about faith)" "kya meri maa mujhe dekh ke khush hai? (Is my mom happy to see me?)" he turns to her as if he was a little boy desperate for her to answer "yes". The power packed in this scene was enough to start me on my journey, there was a pull, a connection, a sort of magic in it. I count my lucky stars I ever came across it. Only later i would learn how significant this moment really was. The man who didn't believe in anything and passed most things off as "rubbish" had started to look at the stars with the eyes of a naive girl who believed that her deceased parents had become them, perhaps finding some solace in it for himself . As I started to watch this beautiful love story i would find that these gleaming shimmering nightly creatures had a huge role to play in this story.

A back drop no less important than the Raizada mansion and the Gupta house, in a way the stars narrated this love story, a good chance they wrote it eons ago. They were there from the start, the night Khushi fell into his arms and their eyes met for the first time. Next i felt their presence accompanying the song "Tu hi bata mere maula" as Arnav stood by his poolside looking up at them perhaps waiting for something, and Khushi just looked up and dreamt away about her future, they bought so much hope and promise. However, their first real appearance came in the form of a silent wish by both when their longing for one another was just taking shape. And one evening after hearing her dhak dhak, he sat looking up sipping in the romance they exuded silently, though moments later he, out loud he would dub it all as "silly romantic nonsense." Slowly the stars had became a medium of communication that only grew in strength with time. Perhaps their biggest contribution to Arnav and khushi came when they needed each other the most. He was kidnapped and she was desperate to find him, missing each other terribly. It was the stars that allowed them to speak and listen to each other's heartfelt confessions. Then there was the special night before their wedding, Arnav brought the stars, her parents, to Khushi, and after sending them off, the star crossed couple became one.

Many more moments where their indirect presence was felt, countless times when Arnav stood out by the pool side with his romance filled eyes, aloof with her thoughts. And when there was an unbearable pain after he finds that a ring binds her to another, they shared that pain with each other via the stars. With all the moment could be included but that would keep us here for ever, there is one I have to share.

How can we leave out the most precious moment the stars gave us? Khushi tells his picture "Chaliye muskuraaiye! chaliye! (come on smile! come on!)" and how, a gleaming, glowing smile brighter than the stars themselves slowly appears on Arnav's face, his true happiness beaming from within knowing that she'll finally be his forever. It bought closure to the moment that started it all for me. If Khushi were here, she would finally answer him, "Yes Arnavji, today your mom is very happy seeing you."

Gorgeous piece Ami❤️

Memories ran back again, how crazy we were then, even now but that intensity was something.

Stars and pearls are my most fav topic to discuss along with Dupatta...I remember I had a post on it, .

There is no question, Stars became the medium of their conversation, a beautiful way to convey what they can't.

mehreen, lovely pithy take on one of the central aspects of this love story. what you said about the on and off aviators and the suv windows made me think. he hid himself, his feelings, his vulnerability, yes. and she had that keen courage that wouldn't back off. very interesting writing and acting.

great to see you. hope all well with you too.

Thanks di for remembering me🤗

just like asr, I am on off mode here, many years were off, life took over and I hid myself😆

IPK is a different show, even you put it aside, whenever a chance you get, you get back on it
