Tales Thirsty Billa & Teasing Billi!
People are obsessed with what they don't allow themselves to have, and then they become controlled by it. Forbidden fruit is everyone's main meal.
Madeleine Ryan
Sometimes in life, when everything appears dark and dreary, people often derive solace from the tiny joys of life. Today’s episode took me back to my childhood, where chilli and raw mango were the most daredevil’s combination. Only a few brave ones could mouth the taste! And, those who did were considered to be the Lord!
Well, isn't life the same? Pickled mangoes with red chillies to make it spicier and more engaging. Imagine Raavi’s life like a bland broth of the chicken soup✌️.
Well, it does bring comfort, but chilli mangoes makes your salivary juices drip in happiness (no pun intended here 😆)
Today’s Shivi reminded me of the complex relationship the Bairaagi Shiva shares with the spicy Raavi; she tempts him every second to give in. Consume with her the spiciest combination of Forbidden Fruit! The forbidden fruit being metaphorical for Raavi herself. The intense longing and temptation to give in to consume Raavi throbs the heart every second.
Just like the forbidden fruits are the juiciest and trap you into a quagmire of a duel with your own demons! (Kinda Lucifer like Vibes here)
They reminded me of the song from Jab Harry Met Sejal
Afsana tera mera chatkhaare waala
Beech beech mein
Sur lag jaata hai mera tumhare waala
Beech beech mein
There's fierce chemistry between you and me!
with a spicy flavor here and there in it.
Here we have a tale of two people who always had fiery chemistry and the spiciest love-hate relationship!
Waise Nazar na Lage Krivi ko but Thirsty Billa had to ruin the Devar Bhabhi moment by lurking around. Kyun Shiva, you want all the attention to yourself na 😆
She is enjoying this bizarre Taste of life! It's lovely to see Raavi grinning from ear to ear. She deserved the smile for a long time. I am sure part of this fascination for Shiva might Bd the fact that she is smiling like her previous version! She had, unfortunately, become a ghost of the girl she was; now that she is back, he is happy and tempted to admire her from a distance!
He stops dead in his tracks enjoying her childlike innocence and of course the Chatpata allure she brings to his life 😆
The angel is nothing Without the demon. Shiva completes the frame, her uninhibited flamboyant innocence ultimately foiled with his Guarded desires. He slips in between and lets the flood gates of emotions rush through him.
His gaze, though almost improper, was the most sensual thing he could have done at the moment, and it jolted her heart into a strange rhythm, leaving her unable to speak.

He can't help but feel drawn in to his fate, his nemesis and his better as well as Chatpata Half!
We hunger in earnest for that which we cannot consume.
Nenia Campbell,
Shola shola saansein bhaari bhaari
Aaja aa jalenge baari baari
Badlega phir yeh status
Kanwaare waala beech beech mein
(Beech beech mein…)
Just Shiva things! Random reasons like why are you eating a mango 🙈
Arey Dhopi, pati hun mein tera, thoda to credit de na😆
Hum Apke hain Kaun Moment!
Kaun Mera...Mera Kya Tu late....
The talk and the situation changes into a grim one. Matlab ki baat kar Shiva 🤣
Raavi always had a soft corner for Shiva. From her Choley Andolan to the Mango bit. She cares for him. Now that her anger is gone, she wants him to be taken care of ❤️
I hunger for your sleek laugh,
your hands the color of a savage harvest,
hunger for the pale stones of your fingernails,
I want to eat your skin like a whole almond.
I want to eat the sunbeam flaring in your lovely body,
the sovereign nose of your arrogant face,
I want to eat the fleeting shade of your lashes
-Pablo Neruda
This scene is all hearts! He just lost his sense and sensibility!
How cute is the download of Raavi Version 1.0
Nobody had ever looked at her like that—as if she were filled with such lethal sweetness that craving could be synonymous with ruin.

PART 2
Opposites Attract
Together, we form a necessary paradox; not a senseless contradiction.

Well, I had been meaning to address this part from a long time. The contrasting physiques of Raavi and Shiva are the highlight of their relationship. They are pitted so thoughtfully against each other.
Her naivety-His thoughtfulness
Phoolkumari-Chattan Pandya
Sweaty smelly-Fragrant
Aag-Pani
Damsel-Saviour.
They say matches are made in heaven and people complete each other. A girl like Raavi needed someone who would keep her wrapped in a Muslin cloth protected from the world. Who better than a Chattan Pandya who would not only shelter her from trouble but would stand beside her like a rock of Gibraltar.
Oh! These two!!
Hero’s look when being called a hero by wifey!
How puzzlingly fitting one can be, a couple of opposites. She was loud and fiery; he was quiet and cold. She always defended him verbally; he always defended her physically.
Criss Jami
I loved the complete role reversal here. Raavi irking him like fire but Shiva trying to maintain a calm demeanour!
He looks so dashing in this cap ❤️
Dikhaun tujhe Taqat
We all know Shiva what Taqat you want to show Raavi 🙈
Haan Dikha na 🤣
Raavi, phoolkumari, you don't want to instigate Chattan Pandya right 🤣
This takes me back to the premise of their meeting during the Haldi Ceremony! She does chide him that despite your name being Shiva, you cannot take care of this tiny pot!
I am assuming here that she really relishes his Enormous physical strength and hence chooses to tease him around it. The contrasts of their physique and temperaments are so starkly developed. No wonder they are Aam & Mirchi to each other! One Khatta and another fire! Making each other Chatpata...
Afsana tera mera chatkhaare wala
Beech beech mein..
