TSBTSB Episode Discussion Thread #3 - Page 59

@quickspicysauce...Nice take on the epi and agree with you after longtime got a well executed episode..

An episode with well blended emotions..

Anurag well portrayed his helplessness,the trauma of the accident,the anger,frustration and his love for kajol ..

It was so heartouching how kajol kept her calm and smile on her face to cheer him up though he was trying to be harsh with her.... she understood Anurag's behaviour towards her and why he was doing it..

That scene where kajol asked him how she looking in her saree and Anurag could not hide his true feelings as it reflected on his face admiring her..

Loved the convo of sharmila and kajol.. we got to see a very confident and strong kajol who will not accept defeat nor sacrifice her love now..

Today kajol took a very bold step to stay with Anurag and does not care now what people will say about it..Its good creatives showed kajol taking this decision than a marriage.. That Anandita already brainwashing Dida against kajol as a golddigger who wants Anurag's wealth..I hope next time kajol shut her mouth as she is truly irritating..

It will need a lot of patience and effort for kajol to make Anurag corporate with her as of now he has lost that motivation to recover and live life..

Definitely kajol will succeed with her love and care to heal Anurag..

No surprise naina is back to ask for her share in property..I just hope she does not trouble for kajol and chondona take care of her crazy daughter..

It looks like interesting episodes ahead with Anjol bond getting stronger along with naina creating another mess just to get upperhands on Shreya.

One mention for Ishita/karan who did a great job..

It seems we will get to watch longer episodes till 11th February.

@Savee; heart warming epi..all out acting with Karan/Ishita

Dida is unbelievable - still hankering after Stalker; she will never learn so I wont waste any more breath on her except to say she is going to.be a big obstacle in Kajol's life together with Chaterjee family

At least Abisheck did not oppose Kajol & thank goodness for Sharmilla

As to Nania, she wastes no time in claiming her share of business - no need for Shreya to bankrupt Chaterjees, Nania will do her best to bankrupt Mukerjees -Kajol needsto keep her wits on her despite looking after Anurag. Thank goodness for Bulti. At least Chandana is not buying this BS for now

Bulti is sharp. Apu needs to support Bulti she knows the likes of her Chaterjee family well

Next onto our Kajol.and Anurag..both hurting...of course its easy to understand Anurag's shock and pain and anger but I sense there is anger there for Kajol for not fighting for Anurag in the first place though both made an unspoken decision to protect each other without speaking about what happened in the first place.

I think Kajol bitterly regrets that she did not fight hard enough for Anurag & she admits that to Sharmilla, her family & to herself...in time to.come what will help to heal.the hurt is to admit the same to Anurag...I feel a lot of his underlying anger is that she gave up on them.

Yes of course Anurag is fighting to get her out..she is not there for pity but for love and deep down he knows that but right now its pain talking and of course he is doing this to spare her more hurt..but in the end they are hurting themselves

I called it right; Kajol does not care what society will say about her decision to look after Anurag...but society will talk...thank goodness her family have allowed this to happen.. so she is presumably there now in Basu household as a day visitor.did she have a conversation with Sharmilla before hand..yes she would have done so ..they will show this in flashback. She is not staying there as far as I can see for now

Its gouin to take all of Kajol's love & persevrance to get Anurag up & walking but she will.

There is some doubt in my mind that this track is double edge sword - Kajol has repeatedly said she will stay till she gets Anurag walking ...then what? Will.she leave? Or will marriage come before then?

Then again she says she will not leave even if Anurag kicks her out...hmm he has to be on his feet to do that...why do I feel.she will go after that?

Its going to be too early now for a valentines wedding small ceremony as I had hoped for but then again who knows...if this does happen it will be something to do with stalker & not because Anjol have had a heart to heart talk...I may be wrong on this..

Ohh longer episodes - hmm wonder why?

I have noticed one thing in common :

Just like Anurag repeatedly to the point of boredom mentioned about dying and stuff, the same way Kajol goes on about she will stay with Anurag till she gets him walking...

I wonder what could be the meaning of all this ??

We have seen what happened to Anurag ...he indeed almost died.

Will the same happen here too ?? Will Kajol leave when Anurag is on his feet again ??

Sometimes its really hard to get these heavy dialogues, becoz most of the times they mean nothing symbolically, but are just there for the sake of being there....so its quite difficult to grasp.

And Kajol dialogues honestly dont make sense to me: on one hand she says she will stay till Anurag can walk again and WHAT AFTER THAT ??

Then again she says she will not leave even if Anurag kicks her out.....so I assume she talks abt this period that he is still dependent....

And then again she says she regrets not fighting hard enough for her love.....so the question is : what is the exact meaning of what, coz frankly I am maha confused....

But as @wynn said I also have the feeling that she will leave after Anurag gets well unless there is a wedding before that...

@wynn: About Anurag being angry becoz Kajol gave up easily....well he is at fault too, becoz he never disclosed to her the real reason for marrying tht bitch. If Kajol gave up, than Anurag is equally at fault for bringing Kajol to the point of giving up...., the knife cuts both ways....

If only he had opened his mouth to tell her about the blackmailing part instead of letting her think tht psychopath will kill herself if she didnt get Anurag, the situation could hv been different.

So Anurag should be angry at himself first for thinking tht Kajol is not capable of handling the blackmailing shit and rather took that decision for her than to be angry at Kajol for giving up on them...

@Esha; you have voiced my thoughts. This is a double edge track..some alarm bell is tinkering away. Kajol will walk away once she gets Anurag on his feet so the only way she will stay if stalker intervenes which she will and Anjol get married somehow to block stalker but right now I am not feeling marriage vibes though this is something I want for Anurag/ Kajol.

She has repeated the same thing just as Anurag mentioned dying repeatedly so.CVS is warning us what is to come.- I feel a marriage of convenience to block stalker...of course Anurag/Kajol wanted to get married but too much water under bridge and after accident Anurag will feel differently for now...they still love & are in love with each other but are suffering for sure - then after that real wedding ..

I must be watching too many serials 😀😀

Agree the responsibility for communication or lack of it goes both ways...but its how Kajol deals with Anurag's anger and pain that will turn the tide...stalker will.be back soon...thank goodness nothing of her today

Esha even though I am die hard romantic I think if marriage comes it will be through stalker intervention...will this come by Valentines day? Hmm if they gibe 40/45 min epis this week then yes, it might happen

Why they are giving long epi I wonder?

@Wynn..Nice analysis of the epi.

Agree it was a heartwarming episode with lots if mixed emotions..

As you said Anurag/kajol love each other but still their relationship is going through a rough patch..

At the moment Anurag is not letting kajol have that right of his lifepartner to be there for him..lots going on Anurag's mind anger ,frustration as he believes he is not the same Anurag who was walking side by side with kajol in her every ups and downs.. His heart though still have that love,care and concern for kajol..

Both are stturborn at the moment but eventually kajol will succeed in bringing back that motivation to live again in Anurag..

Coming to naina i think she may seize the opportunity of the absence of kajol at the printing press to succeed in her plan..Bulti/opu should keep an eye on her every move..I have a feeling though chondona may fall in her trap ..Hope she does not sign any property papers without talking to kajol..

As for kajol leaving after Anurag is healed,I don't think she literally meant leaving him again.. That's not happening as I feel their bond will be more concrete during Anurag's recovery and no more sacrificing their love..

I think Dida too will accept her mistake later and choose kajol as Anurag's bride..

Anyways lots of bts are there which hint Anjol are getting married.

I don't know if it's already a wrap up as it looks like the actors are not on set or shooting..Let's wait and see as they got 3 months extension.

As for longer episodes colors have changed the time slot of Ekta show molkki to 11pm ...That's why Nima and Tsbtsp are filling the gap of 10pm till Ekta new show comes on air....

Esha I had the same thought at back of my mind like you did- why is she constantly saying she’ll stay with him until he is back on his feet? What after? But then again, she ALSO says things like she regrets sacrificing their relationship for the stalker and that she won’t sacrifice the love again and all. Either the writers are showing their trademark inconsistency or they’re trying to deliberately confuse us

@Wynn your observation about Anurag’s anger at Kajol comes right. I did not watch the latest voot epi but caught the WU. Kajol says she can be stubborn too when it comes to Anurag and he tells her had she fought for him like this previously maybe he wouldn’t have been in this condition. Although I think he’s right when he said this he’s also conveniently not mentioning his own fault here (like Esha said) of not (and still not) revealing the reason/the accusation stalker has, he never told her and their relationship hasn’t been working due to this nonsense mahanta trope they are both riding on. On top of that in the latest epi Kajol tries to whitewash stalker before the Mukherjees but Apu and Bulti shut her up and tell her that’s it’s clear as day that she’s a bad person and essentially tell Kajol to stop with the mahanta BS. I really really want Apu and Bulti to do the sleuthing around like they did previously with Shreya and get stalker off for good. Lastly in the latest epi stalker is shown telling her mom it’s hard for her to forget the object of her obsession but will of course not do anything for him, will only sit and obsess, so be prepared to see her back

Whether or not writers are seeing all this I don’t know but I still do not know why Preeti Chaudhary is still in the show. Her character makes zero sense for this show, it was an unnecessary addition right from day one and has also ruined the show. All the other vamps are at least connected to the story line. This one is goddamned useless. I know lots of us want her to get thrown to jail or something but honestly in my case I don’t even have irritation left for the character because I’m still trying to wrap my head around WHY this character is here in the first place and how it serves the overall story in any way

Also one more weird thing- Anurag and Kajol keep having FBs of their relationship and the things they told each other, lmao, no time logic also, anytime they got back together they didn’t last beyond 12 hours 🤪 itne saare FBs kaha se aageya

Really better episodes crisp well cut and focused. The rumour is that the show might end in Feb only no confirmation but saw some post and on twitter as well. Plus they are rushing the episodes and stalker just doesn't seem to go.

I remember in school that we had some inaugural function and in that I had also participated and there was a musical and in that the main guy who played the hunter couldn't act at all and would keep smiling in all his scenes but even when many of us asked the teacher to remove him she did not because he was the son of the District Magistrate and could not be insulted. I have the same feeling about the person playing the role of the Stalker. She has some connection that makes her indispensable even at the cost of the show.

The show, TSBTSP is now having 28 minutes episodes this week and is being rushed which gives me the feel that the end is near plus I saw a BTS where the cast is shown to be cutting a cake even though that cake seems to be part of the upcoming track but still.

And TSBTSP is not as lucky as Mollki which again got an extension, a channel change and has been saved from being axed after actually being axed and wrapping up shooting. Much can be said about the Balaji clout.

I am posting after a long time because I would like to say something about today's episode and tomorrow's as well. What an episode it was and will be. Kajol is so restrained and yet the way she deals with Priyanka was fire which was restrained but able to inflict the desired burn 👏👏 and the love and affection she gives Anurag by her support is beautiful to watch.😍😍

This is what we had signed up for not a shouter like Sai or Anupama's monologues (though I love them) but an independent girl who knows what is right and wrong and can take decisions with her inner strength. Who speaks with restraint but is able to deal with all types of challenges.

Flashbacks are scenes I believe they would have put in but couldn't because of story change I think, because really are we having some event like the movie "Inception" taking place where they meet in their dreams and make those memories.

This week has been Kajol's show and I am glad because I am tired of Anurag to be honest. Even though he is shown suffering now and is trying to be sacrificial and all, but his whole holding on to Kajol when it was a futile situation just destroyed the character for me completely and yes if the show ends and I decided to revisit it sometime in the future maybe I might not be so against him. But as of now for me this show is only Kajol's show. And man is Ishita delivering. She is Kajol at moments and not someone who is loud and direct but someone with immense patience and a huge core of positivity even in the face of huge adversity. She is calm and knows what she wants, she can sacrifice her love for another because she has empathy and compassion. But she is also unwavering in that love. Tomorrow's episode is a must watch just to see Kajol and Priyanka's face off. We see the inner self of Kajol that we saw in the beginning and we see her take on Priyanka in her own decidedly restrained manner.

I am looking forward to tomorrows episode just to see the face off btwn Kajol and Priyanka which is long overdue to be honest

And @Arivarshi : to be frank, I am also sick & tired of Anurag.....actually since the start of this blackmailing shit actually.

His Mahaanta is just sooo shallow and ppl see it as sacrifice ??? Sacrifice ??? Really ??

I am not so sure abt tht. If Anurag was really sacrificing, he would let Kajol free to choose her own path just like Kajol did, instead of tying Kajol emotionally to him with a ring and some promises....

And now he has the nerves to put the blame more or less on her ??? 🤔🤔 like seriously Anurag ???

Telling Kajol tht if she had only fought harder for him, this wouldnt have happned.

I want to tell Anurag the same thing: if only he had trusted Kajol enough to let her handle the blackmailing part, things wouldnt have come this far. But did Anurag trust Kajol enough to tell her the truth ?? NO !!!

And he still didnt tell her why he actually decided to get married to Priyanka.

Its NOT becoz Kajol refused tht he decided to marry tht bitch....he had decided even before Kajol gave back the ring....

So him blaming Kajol now is just pathetic in my opinion. He should admit first to himself tht he is equally at fault for dancing to the tunes of Priyanka, before blaming Kajol alone for this entire fiasco

@Savee ahh thats why longer slots..thank you for clarifying. Today 8/2 beautifully nuanced show, if they had shown this level of acting from early on perhaps we would not be getting an early ending but for now I will take it as it is..

Thankfully no feature of Dida or stalker in sight though stalker was mentioned..

Sharmilla truly understands Kajol which is good because Kajol needs allies in Basu household not enemies as we know Dida has as shallow a mind as stalker

Nania, Nania, Nania is going to pull one of her stunts that will put Mukerjee bank.account into crisis for sure & no.Arjun, Nania is not as shewd as Shreya or as intelligent as Kajol.

Excellent acting witg Ishita/Karan..as I said Anurag is angry that Kajol left him & said so..but he fails to remember he made the decision to allow himself to be blackmailed even on engagement day without proof of Kajol doing anything wrong and neither did he discuss this with Kajol..thus they are both complicit in this.

Anyway beautifully restrained acting with Ishita portraying her determination to stick with Anurag despite his behaviour..she realky does understand him well...it will.take time but her faith will reward her

Looming forward to tomorrow's epi
