Awesome post, as usual.....I'm running out of words to describe your writing. You get better each day.
I see you're still not over your euphoria of the the up and coming A - K wedding and I don't blame you. This thought is what's keeping me sane in between all the A-K fights.

And Kripa lashed out at him to leave her alone but Angad; displaying exactly how thin his control on his emotions was, grated out harshly that how could he leave her alone, how could he forget that he had once loved her?
The man just can't stop himself from touching her, and when she pulls away he become livid at her rejection!!! And while he was saying "…..Mein tumse pyar karta ta" I was yelling "Ta nahi, hoon!!!!……mein tumse pyar karta hoon!!!!!"

Okay. Lets stop for a minute to compare notes over here; how many boxes of tissues did you guys go through while watching this magnificently done scene. I lost count; I was so busy bawling like a baby.
Honestly Amal, I've gone beyond sniffing into my tissues. These days my brother just sighs, leaves the room to return with a bucket for all my tears

But what was the most heart-rending and nerve shattering part of his reaction to Prithvi's outburst was that amidst the naked pain slashing Angad's face, there was also the hint of rekindling hope in his eyes. The truth that had always been in front of his face but which he had been too enraged to see, was rapidly asserting itself, hammering away at all his defenses against Kripa. The truth towards which he had turned a blind eye since his return as the prodigal Zaib…..that Kripa always had been and always would be, his and his alone…heart, mind, body and soul!!!
Yes….Yes…..Yes!!!! Beautifully put. I couldn't have said it better myself.

Kripa made to follow Prithvi out of the door, but when Prithvi had passed out of the door, she stopped, drawing level with a shell shocked Angad and in the background, the music of that song, 'tarap, tarap ke' started playing. And finally after everything that had just transpired, Kripa turned to look towards Angad. And the look on his face…..My God! Okay, a little handy hint over here: to prevent myself from giving in to fresh flurries of tears at this point, I just kept repeating my new calming and comforting mantra over and over again….which is really very simple and goes something like, 'A-K are getting married. Yippee!'
So there was Kripa with tears rolling down her face and as Angad came towards her slowly, with strangely halting steps, he too had tears in his eyes. And at this point, even my mantra stopped working and the person who could be heard howling the loudest in the room was yours truly. Sigh! These two put me through such an emotional wringer, I swear.
So anyway, Kripa without waiting for Angad to reach her; left the room and was shown standing against a doorway, looking utterly dejected and heart broken whilst Angad was similarly shown looking completely devastated. The song started in earnest then and while the lyrics are rolling in the background (something about asking God about this strange twist of fate.) Angad remembered old times; the bridge scene, the lipstick/sindoor scene, when they showed their souls embracing, car scene, Kripa's birthday, dance rehearsal, old party….all momentous occasions in their tumultuous relationship. And suddenly he burst out, "Omg! I can't believe that Kripa still…..No! If this was so then she wouldn't have done this to me. But then why didn't she with Prithvi….?" And unable to answer these questions, finally crying out in mute despair, "Kripa, do you still love me?"
Kripa's sadness and mortification at the truth being revealed, followed by Angad's anguish and his regret at how far they've gone, in conjunction with the flashes from all the significant events in their lives, had me crying and I'm not ashamed to admit that this story and these two characters affect me as much as they do. Their pain and their love move me to no ends.
And what surprised me was that my sister, who deemed fit to interrupt me with more of her mocking and scoffing of Angad and Kripa…..a task that she takes immeasurable pleasure in doing, sat there silently through the entire confrontation, and when I finally took a breath during the ad break, I saw that she was bawling like a baby. No words were needed for me to say, as she has finally been swayed by their love for each other, and she finally realizes the circumstances and pain which both of them share. This scene has made her a KYPH convert, and I fully expect to see her sitting next to me at 8 each night.

…………And walked away towards the milieu downstairs with Angad following; when suddenly Angad's face was shown registering a look of utter shock. And following the direction of his gaze we saw a contingent of police gate crashing the party; saying that they had an arrest warrant in Prithvi Bose's name in connection with alleged links with the Dubai's underworld.
I don't know about shocked Amal. To me he looked taken aback, not shocked. He planned this but in the aftermath of the bombshell revelation that Prithvi dropped, he forgot about it……that's the way I saw it.

…………..Mishty confided in Angad that she thought that it was Karthik trying to get back at her through her brother.
I immediately thought of our Butter. Poor girl, she tries so hard to defend Karthik to us, and here it happens that the man isn't even in the episode and his name gets dragged through the mud.

And then the episode ended with Angad's 'Dialogue of the Day': "Please don't lose hope. I'm always there for you! …….. Always!"
That's exactly what I said in Nitu's post. I also consider this to be the dialogue of the day!! Great minds and all, what say, Amal.
