Synopsis: The episode had all except for what I expected it to have...It lacked that punch...It was mellow...For me it was lower than average and not enjoyable at all!
First Confrontation: A set back!
Arohi: The Beautiful Memories!
The Second Confrontation: Out of Ideas!
First Confrontation: A set back!
From the moment Arohi musters up the courage to knock at the door to the moment where Arjun gives the last punch saying "unhe batana parta hai ke dekho yehy hai tumharee aukaat...tab jaa ke unhe samajh aaty hai"...the graph was on the rise! The foundations laid...the stage set...and than what *thuddddd*! Arohi keeps the letter at his side table and goes away...MUM! 😕 remember how Arjun counter-attacked her (with dignity) when she had almost declared her hatred to him post the singing competition MU....now where was her genius mind at this point....This is strictly a creative fault...in my opinion she had to ask him why? she had to explain to him that her father had told his father the truth (as she thinks this is the reason for contention), proofs come later...its the matter of giving your point of view..silence can only lead the other party to believe you have nothing to say in your defense....and she gave him enough reasons to think that way...If she has this much of an ego than she can never ever get his love back in her life...you have to give explanations when relationships are on the verge of being broken! she loves him...she thought of him all the way to his office...does she want to loose him? well apparently NO....but than why doesn't it come across when she is with him? Now I know I am sounding quite disturbing here and I would like Arohi's lawyer and her team to soothe me down...give me reasons as to why she did this...
Coming to Mr. Arjun Punj...well he did what he was best at doing in the early days of KMH....now since he has mastered so many other emotions it did not look something exceptional...his act was kind of expected....He quite clearly indicates his point of view on Arohi through the flower analogy...It was ruthless yet it was expected!
All in all the scene left me puzzled...I wanted some outcome which I did not get out of it😕...did anyone else feel like that or am I just being too cynical today?
Arohi: The Beautiful Memories!
That was the only saving grace of the show for me! All those memories...are so beautiful and just bring a smile back... The moment the sound of Arjun saying "Agar tum dei sakty ho ik dil ki liye dunia to main bhi aik pal kai liye zindagi dai doon" came I got a direct flight to dreamland! Ofcourse I was not jumping and all...keeping with the current mood of the show but I was all dreamy...and guys I have to admit but I kind of have started missing the Romantic Arjun already😳! oopsss was it I who was looking forward to his H&M act?🤪The mouse scene yet again was cleverly integrated here...a well edited sequence...The best part being saved for the end.....as she holds tight on her doppata...I interpreted it as if she was holding on tight to those memories...afraid that they were slipping out of her hands....but than she does let them go...empty handed she lets out a sigh as if taking it all out of her system...it reflected her efforts to fight back...to stay composed...not to let him win the battle....she is a fighter and that was well captured! she is broken but she has to get composed before he can see her broken heart! So Arohi's realization gets the moment of the day! Kritika acted quite well here...
The Second Confrontation: Out of Ideas!
The second confrontation had it all...Arjun's attitude (he was back in his suits) and Arohi's integrity! It had all the elements...Unlike the first one, here Arohi spoke up...gave him a good enough response to make him shut his mouth! But than this one was based on a baseless idea! Well Arjun wants to humiliate her..... fine...but he is an intelligent person...I mean this was such a pathetic idea to start of with...asking her to serve them drinks...well this just takes away Arjun Punj's charm away from him...come up with some creative ideas to the torture with style! I want to see some tashan in that too! what do you guys think? Otherwise the way Aorhi says "Sir main aap ki associate hoon koi waitress nahin"....her dialogue delivery was very apt and went well with the mood...All in All in this scene Arohi one the battle with quite a big margin! she shone and left Arjun lagging behind!
Dialogue of the Day: "theek hai na sir", Arohi was good in that scene and culminated it well!
Precap: So keeping up with the pace....BT is quick enough to resolve the MU....I hope Arohi finds out...it would be interesting to see how she reacts towards Arjun once she knows the truth! One more thing Anjana....Badi Maa is back!😆
Food for Thought
1) Well despite the glitches I could not stop but smile at the blurred LCD...Anu the creatives have left no stone unturned for you to concentrate on the cast and not the background!
2) Paddy, Mr.Mittal and DK made sure they wear their party uniform! remember they wore the same in the first party too!
3) I can well catch what Anu means by asking Arjun to hit the gym! saw him in his blazer after quite some time and I can see the difference! I dont get it....why do all Ekta Heroes gain wait and heroines loose it! there has to be an explanation!
4) Savita ji and Paddy ji are busy women...either go missing or end up giving BD shots! A total No-NO from me!
5)Where are the KMH hair stylists....one look at the lead couple's hair in the last part and it shows BT has cut the hair stylist costs too....eeeksss...that hurts!
This episode was infact Arohi's episode...She got the maximum screen time....the creatives had ample scope to describe her character...to clear the misconceptions that some of us have....I have to agree that the points that people try to raise to defend the character are quite valid...but than if she is strong and egoistic enough she should have reacted to Arjun's monologue in the first confrontation!
