Hello Friends,

Synopsis: Wait!!!!! Arjun already left when Badi Maa opens the door........😲😲😲 Awwww did I ruin the suspense that BT built with all that tabla and slow motions......🥱🥱🥱 come to think of it.....I didn't 😊 cuz other than Anu all of you are experienced in soaps.....and Anu with her 3 months of scrutinized view of KMH itself has enough experience to guess it at the outset!
This episode has to be one of the weakest in terms of content and treatment......I remember there was another one in Feb (It was a thursday epi with no ArjuHi in it)....this Friday epi despite having Arjun and Arohi is equally stale! Skip it easily....did not move the story forward!

Purvi has developed feelings for Salil....Although the SP track is getting boring for me but the creatives have given it a subtle transformation over the three months....atleast on that front we cannot say that it was fast paced.....infact nothing happened in theri story other than this that Purvi is in "love" with Salil....just to add on to the glycerin quotient! (hey by the way I dont mind that if it is shot with the right emotions intact)....Pooja (Purvi) is looking good these days...the hair stylists! 👍🏼

"aik din office nahin gayee to pahaar nahin toot pare ga".....tch tch tch poor Arjun! pahar ka to nahin pata Arjun ka dil toot jaye ga.....😳 anyways Arohi and her attitude....does not even mind telling him that she will be late😲 I mean she can text him that atleast....for that she can wven call him in front of her spy sisters...she is an employee and has all the responsibility to tell her boss that she is coming in late! but than who tries to find logic! 😕

I liked Antara today....her constant comments on Shrutti...though at one point got irritating but she delivers them with finesse....."yeh Arjun Sir bhi restless ho jaate hain"...."yeh Arohi bhi na kabhi kabhi mere phone ka jawab hi nahin dety hai"........fillers! useless dialogues.....I did not enjoy them...though Kritika is excellenet these days...the phase that she had where she was looking expression less...lost...is over thankfully.....her smile, mischievous eyes and body language is working for me! she is once again giving life to Arohi...and the character is getting in my good books once again....it took Kritika's good acting and Anaja's excellent defense for me to start liking the character once again! 😊

Catch Kritika's apt reaction when Badi Maa hands her the Kangans...as she transforms her serious look to one of excitement to look inside the box as to whats in there.....Well Arjun might recognize these Kangans....if he does not get to meet Badi Maa first! the reason they are shown is good enough for them to play an important role in the narrative! The whole scene had Arohi shining....the way she shows the kangans to her sis, or gets shy at the fact that Arjun is not saddu anymore.....Great job Kritika! 👏

Arjun's call, his desperate questions and Arohi's reaction was cute.....What I cannot understand is that she cannot talk to him on the phone but thinks its a good idea that he comes over and meets everyone! 😲today I guess I am completely cynical....no chance of any positivity coming out of me😛! "nathuram and sons" hmmm...that is an interesting name....going by the kind of shop they have built in a mumbai studio...the name sounds quite apt though let me know your takes! maybe Anu can shed some more comic light on the proceedings!
😉

Moment of the Day: welllll Arjun you are fab! I am soo glad you are with us on this mission...but Arohi and her persistence....is ladki ko kab yeh baat samajh aaye gi kai Sir nahin kehna....I loved this scene but later when she called him "Sir" again....is scene ka maza bhi kharab ho gaya....anyways coming back to the moment! the "isharas", the "expressions".....I guess Manisha this gets the expression of the day award too....Arjun was likable in this scene....making her call him Arjun yet again.....it was a short moment but was the only passable one in the whole episode!

It was quite apparent that Karan was literally forcing himself not to move in this scene😆😆....but I like the effort! his expressions mostly gooooood....

Dialogue of the Day : "Dresssss"...."Phir se"......a good one from Arohi! followed by nice expressions from the duo....

One positive thing that I can get out of this scene is the fact that Arjun still loves his Mom....now that is quite apparent from how he reacts on the chocolates....If we hate someone...and something reminds us of that someone...we are bound to get angry at the sight of that something....we are bound to overreact....hate it...throw it....But when Arjun sees the chocolates he gets those beautiful memories....since he has this unintentional soft corner for his mom...."i used to love these chocolates" as if saying "I used to love my Mom"....and "I wish I still had her in my life" Karan and Kritika again gave in a perfect performance.....

Arjun feels that connection with Badi Maa....his turmoil is bound to erupt once he finds out the truth....I am sure its his turn to go into the "i hate you" mode for Arohi....I just hope the creatives handle that better....by the way the only thing that made me laugh like super crazy today when Arjun said that there is a "cookery book" inside the gift wrap....i dont know about you guys and i am not sure myself why? but somehow i found that funny! anyone joining me????

Salil's red track pants...were enough for me to take my eyes away from the screen! I just dont get the dressing sense of any character on this show.....😕 though other than the forced "Hinglish"....Salil was as usual apt with his expressions! Purvi also looked cute....

The precap.....oh the usual misunderstandings! though Arjuns desperation to get married brought a smile on my face!!! well i guess like the episode today my post also seems stretched....disconnected....slow and boring! 😕

Your comments,

~Ria

P.S: As Anu says a ps is a must now😆 Anu dear an LCD in the jail was the most creative though cooking at the Adda yesterday! I am in for it!!! we want an LCD in the jail!!!! Thanks Mehr for making an effort on the FB group to raise a voice against the wardrobe.....Arjun just brought one dres..😕 I mean he should have brought a dozen so that Arohi just gets rid of her uniform! If Arjun and Arohi are not enough...look at Sur, Salil, Purvi....all of them disasters as far as clothes are concerned! and ofcourse Aorhi's bag.......3 maheene sai aik hi bag😕

Well despite of the pessimistic take at the episode...I am quite happy today😃 Got my Tickets today...though am moving back in june but the thought of things finally wrapping up makes me jump all around! Two years and two months away from home....was more than enough for me....Radz soon I will join u with my Mom shouting and glaring at me for those repeats! 😛

Hope to have some fun over the weekend at the Adda! Have a nice weekend!

First of all Congrats on your tickets.

But, I have a completely different view from you... I loved the episode, simple and balanced. Neena Gupta without any body double, she always brightens up things for me, graceful, beautiful and an amazing effortless actress.

Chinks, not many today, though did not like the sound effect in the end, spoiled the serenity of the episode for me. Equal space for everyone but without taking away the space from the protagonists.

Today, Ria has transformed into a complete cynic. 😊

Glad to get a contrasting view...I agree Neena Gupta brings this freshness on the screen...I kind of forgot to mention her in my post but I love her screen presence too! you said graceful! and graceful she is!
and I am glad you were the first one to post today....this take is dedicated to you!!!

@towatch: thanks dear!

"Iss pyar ko Rishthe mein BADAL dethe hai...tu SHAADI karle ...tu kahe tho mein baath karu kya?...Jaise aap teek samjhe..😳"... I loved the precap..actually there are two reasons for me to love that ...first of all shaadi waadi ki baath...PUNJI ke moo se sun kar kuch ajeebo gareeb khushi horahi hai..😛.... jaise ki mera koi dost shaadi karne jaa raha ho...and the other reason of course Adda ke sare buddies ko tho patha hai......mujhe DK ji acting bahut achi lagthi hai..and after a long long time unnke moo se kuch sun paayi ...tho mene episode eek baar dekhi par precap bees baar 🤣..I know its actually the start of the drama becoz DK thinks its Nuts and PUNJI thinks its arohi but anyways ...as they say picture abhi baaki hai...mere dost...so lets leave it at that and move on...😍

Today kuch khaas nahi hui epi mein tho I will have a short one today...the sisters scene is where it starts off and the one glance I had it is about the gift which Sur and Antara get for Purvi. Sur has three dresses for Purvi and Purvi has to select one from them...and ...Sur explains to antara ...White is for loneliness, Yellow for friendship and Red is for love. Purvi selects the RED one. Sur and Antara are very happy abt that as they feel Purvi is very much in love with Salil and she accepted salil from the bottom of her heart. Sur and Anatara start off for some Road-Side Roaming
🤣... No no I was just kidding yeh HP ke bachein hai ...they are not into roaming and all 🤣...anyways they meet Badimaa on the way out and all of them decide to go for shopping...


Arohi , Sur , Antara and Badi maa at shopping. All ekta fans dont throw shoes at me but dont u think that shop looks like P & M's
🤣🤣🤣 ...I mean remember when Arohi comes for the interview I remmember seeing a similar setting and stuff and I was laughing like hell looking at that shop🤣.Anyways recession I guess😕..PUNJI is so desperate to talk to Arohi , now-a-days I really wonder eek hi kaam karne wala tha P&M mein and woh bhi pyar mein pagal hoke kuch kaam waam nahi karraha hai...jaldi hi P&M will be on sale 🤣🤣...Anyways PUNJI keeps calling Arohi and Arohi madam ko phir se ML ... Arjun SIRRRRRRRRRRRRRR😡 I hate that ... I literally was banging my lappy when she was saying that 'S' word I just hate it... I mean whats with that SIR 😡. Anyways I was immediately laughing looking at PUNJI when he says "Kabhi kabhi mera phone ka jawab bhi nahin dethi hai"...I was like ya ya we understand that ...tum itne chipku ki tharah phone pe phone karthe rahogi tho ....she will be irritated naa...🤣.. Badi maa accepts her as daughter-in-law and gives her Kangan ...Anyways u know me I dont like to talk abt Savitha ji until I find out the truth so fastforward 🤣...she also gives some chochlates for PUNJI ...alright enough of Savitha ji... now PUNJI calls Aro again and look at PUNJIs tsunami of questions **so cute PUNJI 😳**** ahemmmm ok ok Iam back....ya....he asks where she is and Aro answers "Naturam and sons" , and I was like say Iam at the ground floor of P&M's🤣🤣 its the same building 🤣anyways I know its a bad joke so lets move on...PUNJI wants to meet Badi maa and so he wants to land up at that shopping place and Badi maa must've sensed this 🤣and she skips from that place .. Some love moment here ..PUNJI asks "Kya tum mujhe miss kar rahi ho😳??"...Aro all smiling and enter the dragons hehehe sisters and Aro so cutely responds "Haan...jawab hai Haan"😳....so cute naa... Punji and Aro smiling cute one **Anu sharmaying and smiling😳😛**


Arohi waiting for punji at some coffee shop and PUNJi with some gift for Aro lands there. Arohi says HI SIRRRRRRR😡 ....Punji is a little mad at the sir word ...oh I am so relived at that ....atleast someone wants her to stop using that 'S' word anyways she says "Hi Arjun sir
😡"...PUNJI still little mad and then she says jisse sunnekeliye hamare kaan tharas gaye..."Arjun"..😛...Punji is relieved and me Jumping🤣..He gets to know badimaa jump 🤣...i mean badi maa left ..so he is like alright next time. Anyways the packet he has is a dress for Arohi.. Arohi is like "DRESS"...PUNJI is all into Confused and bewildered looks 🤣..luckily he wasnt standing...otherwise he would be all hilofying 🤣🤣🤣... anyways Arohi says "Last time jo apne dress di thi...usse pehne ke aisa laga ki mein jhola pehen ke ghoom rahi hoon"...🤣..Punji is all smiles at it...Aro continues "yeh apki Unty friend ko de deejiye ..unhe fit aajeyegi"... Punji says that was a mistake and he has sent the specifications personally ***me wondering how did he get the specification???....ohhhhhh that half hearted hug and he got the specifications 🤣...sorry I know its a bad one but I mean other than that nothing fits the bill 🤣 ******** anyways so he says its designed by Shabina khan and Aro is like she is a big designer and PUNJI is like "Haan par tumhare samne kuch bhi nahin"...**Oh punji all in so much love😳***Aro gifts him with the chochlates that badi maa gave for him. He remmebers the good times he had with his mom😍. Now he wants to go and meet badi maa and surprise Arohi😕. He gets a gift for badi maa and lands up at Arohis.. Now what will happen😕 ?? Punji at the door and Badi maa opens the door...now thats the suspense for Monday's😍. Anyways as far as the precap is concerned it looks like either PUNJI or Badi maa goes blind 🤣🤣🤣.. I mean all looks good from precap and no volcano errupted in PUNJIs life ...so something happened there and PUNJI and Badi maa didnt come face to face...😍


Note: Its always a possiblity when watching KMH that PUNJI or Badi maa will suddenly go BLIND or both have a sudden surge of ML......so dont get heartattacks and all that stuff if on monday when Badi maa opens the door and PUNJI stares at her and fails to recognize her (ML)
🤣 or Badi maa looks at PUNJI and forgets who he is (ML)🤣 or she cant see him(BLIND) 🤣or PUNJI cant see badi maa(BLIND).🤣

He does love his mother but his tendency to please his dad at all times has suppressed that emotion even made him bad mouth his mother... Note how many times he remembers his mother's memories as opposed to his dad's! So I felt that in that chocolate scene he bonded with his mother in her absence, than badi-ma. I guess it would not be unfair to say he subconsciously hoped that her badi ma was his mom..

Arjun feels that connection with Badi Maa....his turmoil is bound to erupt once he finds out the truth....I am sure its his turn to go into the "i hate you" mode for Arohi....I just hope the creatives handle that better....by the way the only thing that made me laugh like super crazy today when Arjun said that there is a "cookery book" inside the gift wrap....i dont know about you guys and i am not sure myself why? but somehow i found that funny! anyone joining me????

"Cookery" book was funny enough.. what I found more funny was Punji's thinking.. she gave me a gift.. now its my turn to give her a gift too.. just like his stubbornness in thinking that once he's confessed his love to Arohi she should do the same too... This was like 5 yr old Punji exchanging birthday presents, very cute.. 😳😆
