Beena, I am kind of confused now. Probably, by writing down what I have in my mind might clear my confusion. Your reasoning makes complete sense to me, but at the same I feel that YuRa will get married next week. The fact that the creatives went so far with their marriage celebrations, that they have almost reached the mandap, I dont think so that now they will stop the marriage. Somehow, I am just not able to digest that YuRa marriage will not take place. I know for Yudi-Bhoomi and Rani-Bhushan marriage they dragged the drama till the mandap, but that time we were sure that no matter what, these marriages were not going to take place.
But this time it is YuRa's marriage, which we know that sooner or later will surely happen. Therefore I feel if they did not want the marriage to happen, then they would have given us some hints like abshagun happening during haldi or myrah rituals, or CR not coming to know the truth about RuMi and staying in dark through out, or some other hint.
One more thing, since creatives are trying to attract new viewers (thats why they showed the boring recap yesterday and have been rushing with the current story line in order to get YuRa married), then not showing the marriage at the last moment might discourage many newcomers.
Now coming to your points, you said that the sword scene signifies that Yudi will choose praja over love/personal life. The thing is that if something does happen to RS, like he gets handicapped due to temple collapsing on Monday, and Yudi becomes the king, he still can marry Rani right. I mean how would he becoming the king stop him from marrying Rani, specially if RS has already accepted Rani. He can respect his duties as a king and at the same time marry Rani also. I dont think so that his love life will interfere with his duties toward praja....or that there is some sort of clash between the two duties (love and praja). And god forbid if something does happen to RS, then Yudi will desperately need Rani's support. He will need her by his side even more. Do you think that if Yudi does not marry Rani (as he has to take the responsibilities of the king), then she will go back to the village. Well, I just dont see the village track starting again. I cant even imagine Rani living in the palace without marriage...this somehow does not make sense to me. And plus, Yudi very well knows that if he does not marry Rani now...due to what ever reason, then she and her family will have to endure alot of insult from the society, which Yudi will never want. And Yudi can no ways live without Rani now, he desperately wants to give a name to this relationship. Therefore, I dont think so that Yudi becoming the king will stop him from marrying Rani. If RS does get hurt, then they might show Yudi becoming the next king and then marrying Rani right away. But he leaving Rani all together for his praja or indefinitely postponing the marriage, just does not make sense to me.
Yes, if RS dies due to this temple mishap, then marriage might be postponed, as moaning time will begin in RKAB. But I dont think so that RS will die so soon. He still has to see the true nature of CR and how useless RuMi are. So creatives better keep him alive. If they did not kill BR, then why would they want to kill RS.
About that cupboard scene, what you have written may be right. But it may also be that the creatives just wanted to show the comeback of Nikki, hence they showed the cupboard scene. Or they just wanted to show how thoughtful YuRa are about each other and that they are caring for each other's needs, like Yudi getting a cupboard for Rani and Rani wanting to learn how to cook moong ka halwa for him.
And yes, the last line from yesterday's recap episode can also mean, that they just wanted to create more drama and keep us on edge the whole weekend. So I will not pay much attention to the last line, as something like this is very much expected from the creatives to create drama and get us more curious. I think the last line was mostly for the newcomers, to keep their interest in the show alive, thus making sure that they watch Monday's episode. Or like someone said in this forum, that the reason they showed the recap is because they wanted to show 1 stage of YuRa's life ending - pre-marriage, and now a new stage starting - post-marriage.
Beena, based on what I have written above, I have a strong feeling that marriage will take place next week. Like I said in ED section earlier, the only reason they showed the cracks in the temple may be because they wanted CR to know the truth so that CR-Bhoomi track can begin. I really dont think so that the temple will collapse while YuRa are getting married.
I am so mad at the SBS team for not covering YuRa marriage. We need some hint yaar, something concrete on which we can make our assumptions. Right now, the story can go either way, YuRa may or may not get married. 3 full days are left before we see the next episode. I just hope that I dont go crazy thinking about it. The promo does sound promising, but again we can not trust it completely.
Basically, I just hope that the creatives dont let us, the loyal fans, down. Marriage or no marriage, YuRa should always remain together, physically also....thats all I care about.
