Nana finally performs and I am in the process of making list of everyone on the show, who have not yet degraded Riddhima. Nana has taken step further and added Sid and his mother in the stride. Bravo!!
Finally Armaan has decided to leave the place. He went to the basketball court, where Riddhima was sunbathing (with her clothes on) and busy with her flashbacks in which the opposition lawyer Sid is questioning her to find the facts. As Armaan came in the close proximity of Riddhima, he changed the atmospheric pressure and the wind started to blow from high pressure area to low pressure area. He had few A4 sized cards pushed into the back of his jeans. And after Riddhima tells him there is nothing to talk, Please go away. He was not all disappointed. As if he knew, what she is going to say. So he kept quiet and pulled out the cards from his jeans. I thought he was going to the airport to pick up someone coming from abroad. The A4 sized cards looked like flashcards which students use while preparing for exams. The way he held the cards in front of Riddhima was if testing her eyesight.
Riddhima translated "Ja Rahey Ho, Hamesha kay liye" In this case the card should have read GOODBYE FOR GOOD, or GOODBYE FOREVER. or better GOODBYE CRUEL WORLD.
The Second card read SORRY TO MAKE YOU CRY
Riddhima has turned into a crying machine with a built dryer.
The third card read BUT PROMISE ME
And Riddhima is holding her breath, she is not sure what he may make her promise. She suffered a great deal by making a promise to Sid's MoM.
The fourth card read YOU WILL KEEP SMILING
The smiley was more like a ghost. Since Armaan came back when did he ever see Riddhima smiling. After the mess she has been put into, can she ever smile again? After reading this card, she puts the back of her hand on her mouth and nose, I wondered whether she stopped herself from crying or smiling or just smelling her hand??. Then he gives her the width with his index finger and thumb, no more no less. As he widens the gap, her smile also get broader, wow magic?, he has really long hidden fingers?, QiGong?? She responds internally "koshish karrongi ke promise na toroon". Not to mention after she receives the divorce papers she not only broke the promise to smile, but thrashed Armaan left right and center.
Now the first four cards were basically to let her off her guard. Then he wanted to have one last try with the next card .
The fifth card read YOU ARE MY LIFE
and he is trying to measure her feeling as to how she takes it. I guess Riddhima was never ready for this. She looks up at him as if she is saying "Tum baaz nahin aate?" and then responds by taking a few steps back. Then he flashes the next card.
The sixth card BUT NOW SOMEBODY's WIFE.
So finally he accepted the fact and Riddhima verifies by saying internally "yehi sachchai hai Armaan."
I also thought for a moment, just to make her smile he might play a card trick and ask her to remember any card and then he will tell her the card she memorized, and she will giggle and say "its unbelievable, how did you do this?? you are so amazing Armaan!"
In my opinion if he had shown the card in reverse order, it would have made more sense. At least he could have shown the GOODBYE card in the end.
In fact he had lot more flashcards made for the occasion depending on how it would have gone after the fifth cards.
Following are the additional cards he had made for this meeting. It was all subject to her positive reaction of YOU ARE MY LIFE! Since Riddhima said their nothing to talk, he went for it verbatim, but she did not say "nothing to read??"
1. EAST OR WEST ARMAAN IS THE BEST.
2. WANNA MAKE OUT WITH ME? (SEE #1 ABOVE!)
3. YOU PLACE OR MINE?
4. DO YOU LIKE BONDAGE?
5. DO YOU SMOKE AFTER SEX?
6. I AM NOT REALLY FUSSY, BUT DID YOU SLEEP WITH SID?
7. DO YOU KISS AND TELL?
8. HAVE YOU EVER DONE IT IN THE BASKETBALL COURT?
9. ROSES ARE RED, VIOLETS ARE BLUE, DID I EVER TELL THAT I LOVE YOU.
Armaan makes a smart move, he opts for Advance Booking by saying "Iss janam main toh tum Sid ki ho chuki ho, par aglay har janam main tum meri hogi."
Does he really think that no one else wants to be with Riddhima, anyone who is above 16 (Sid's age) on this DMG forum (maybe even a few girls too!!) want to be with Riddhima. So Dr. Armaan take a number and get in the line for the next janams!!! (Note: She may continue to remain brand new even after the first janam!)
Sid is walking in the hospital corridor and is analyzing Riddhima's behavior, in turn insulting viewer's intelligence, squashing our brains with the sole of his joggers as if extinguishing a cigarette. He, in all his wisdom, thinks that she is avoiding him, not even aware of the questions he asks her and insists for an answer. He is like those who have bad-breath and are not aware of it. People avoid them.
Short Break
There was this young girl, with a lisp, went to see the doctor. As doctor put his stethoscope on her chest and said "Big breath!"
The girl giggled proudly and said "I am noth even thikhteen yet!!"
BreakOver
Sid is sufferening from a mental lisp, I guess. He decided "ke buss main aur tumhe parishan nahi karoon ga, mujhay decision laina hoga, agar tum mujhsay koi baat nahi karna chahti to koi baat nahi. Main apna decision tum tuk poncha doonga"
The reason she ran away from him was because of his questions which I have covered yesterday. Today he also mentioned that even you don't want to talk to me I will convey my decision. Now he is the guy who has been preaching, Riddhima faisla karegi, uski khusi ke liye and main uss par thopna nahin chahata.
This is exactly opposite to his thought process.
In the past couple of weeks I have also noticed that the dialogue in the storyline are more like roadsigns. Turn left, slow down etc. but never a complete talk between two characters. The communication is on ad hoc basis. For viewers its more like need-to-know-basis. The situations are created out of nowhere. They brought in a terrorist to create an injury to create a twist.
If they want to create fear, JP will walk in and shout out loud, "baahir Tsunami aa gaya hai" if someone asks, "kahan se aaya hai?" he would respond "Kashmir ki taraf se aaya hai!" and people will start to act in panic.
Or Jiggy will come running, "yaar woh satellite 200 miles orbit se out of control ho gaya hai aur seedah cafeteria par hi giray ga".
CVs are good at coming up with disasters and situations.
Short break
A seaman was being interviewed for a job on board a ship. This is how the interview went:
Note: Ship normally have 2 or at times 3 anchors (langars)
Interviewer: Tum duty par ho aur toofan aa jaye toh tum kiya karo gay?
Applicant: Sir, main foren langar (anchor) daal doon ga
Interviewer: Acha agar aik aur toofan aa gaya toh tum kiya karo gay?
Applicant: Sir, main foren aik aur langar (anchor) daal doon ga
Interviewer: Acha agar aik aur toofan aa gaya toh tum kiya karo gay?
Applicant: Sir, main foren aik aur langar (anchor) daal doon ga
Interviewer: Acha agar aik aur toofan aa gaya toh tum kiya karo gay?
Applicant: Sir, main foren aik aur langar (anchor) daal doon ga
Interviewer (smiling) tum itnay sarey langar kahan se laikar aaogay?
Applicant : (smiling back) Sir jahan se aap itnay sarey toofan laikar aayenge.
Break over.
And how they justify it, is exactly what Sid said in his thought process "ke buss main aur tumhe parishan nahi karoon ga aur iss bar main aisa faisla loonga jiss main tumhari khushi ho" He is thinking that divorcing her will make her the happiest woman and I am not sure he has any clue as to how it is going relieve Riddhima of her pareshaanis once she receive the divorce. Ain't divorce the best thing that can happen to an Indian girl, the girl's best friend. He is not even going to tell her before he sends out the papers??? Thopna aur kya hota hai. Agar ye Thopna nahin hai to phir kya ha hai? Thookna!!
Getting Riddhima and Armaan together has become a mania or syndrome for Sid. His life's only mission. As if he does not do it, the world will crumble to an end. He wants to save the world. All this time he is talking to himself and taking actions. I think the little girls playing with dolls would know more about marriages than the CVs.
Getting back to Armaan in the court, he is still trying to get a parting hug from Riddhima, and Riddhima is showing her strength by refusing it. Like a girl knows if, at this stage, she gets into his arms then there is no way back. Then Armaan apologizes at this attempt in a mysterious way "ke mujhay pata nahin tha na ke tumhari shaadi ho gaye hai" In the closeup you can see the sindhoor. And then compliments her Sindhoor look. So just to pass this sensitive remarks they made an ad hoc situation.
Jiggy comes running to Riddhima and gives her the papers. The time between Sid decision and Riddhima receiving the papers.. is it not out of the blue? Did Sid type the official notice himself or he went to a lawyer, or possibly downloaded from the Internet. All ad hoc. Drama Magic Giri (DMG)
After Jiggy delivered the papers, Sid must be watching from behind the window or door of the hospital with an expectation that Riddhima would start jumping with joy when she gets the divorce paper. Instead she was shocked. Sid must be upset now, wow, takes out his gun, aims at Riddhima's head and shoots!! thus removes all her pareshanis..
In the cafeteria, Yuvi suddenly realises that the way he and JP behaved and spoke about Naina in front of Mr. Raju who came to see her at the hotel. And then Mr. Raju, gave Naina's father a blast at which even Naina was smiling. One thing is now sure, whether the CVs read my posts or not, Yuvi definitely does. JP keep talking nonsense just building up the scene to Make Su say what she said and then Naina stepping in. Naina also reads my posts. (Does that make me a celebrity writer?)
Guys now after screwing up the AR-SR track now they want to distract viewers with a new triangle Su-Yuvi-Naina (girl-boy-girl) as opposed to Sid-Riddhima-Armaan (boy-girl-boy). So much so that they have kept Riddhima and Armaan on pause in the court standing few feet apart, to discuss about the divorce papers.
Finally Riddhima gets a chance and Armaan being nosy as ever keeps asking her and Riddhima tells Armaan about the divorce and blames both of them. Armaan thinking "wow! is she available again?" and tries to feel (grope) her to find out her availability but she does not let him touch her and runs for her life......
Surprising in the coming up scene, Sid shows his anger and violence for the decision he has made. He hits Armaan. Again as per the character built up, when his wife was humiliated, he had his adrenalin pump disconnected from his system, he did not get angry. Did not have balls to tell his mother (I guess got them disconnected too). Now what is he furious about? He wants to make Riddhima happy and she is not happy with the divorce. So whenever he should be angry he is polite and whenever he should be polite, he is angry..
So just for my personal interest "Is Riddhima available?", can I get her email ID. Pleeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzz!!!
