But Riddhima decided to let us down, she takes the lift. This was the moment Armaan and Riddhima had been waiting since yesterday to give Sid a welcome surprise. Sid sense of timing and bad luck is immaculate.
Armaan is taking Riddhima all around the garden, probably she paid for the complete chakkar around the garden. The way Armaan is carrying her and taking small step reminds me of war movies where the comrades carry the casualties of war. Armaan is still thinking how he can do something while walking. Riddhima is holding on to her like a baby.
Jiss baat ka darr tha wo ho gayee.. Dupatta came flying back to them and spread over their heads without any wind. As we all know that a (Chiffon?) dupatta has a lot of weight and their heads tilt under the weight of dupatta and brings them to the standard distance of 2-3 inches and along came the Spider.. Sid comes on to the scene. Riddhima removes the dupatta, Sid is watching and between Armaan and Riddhima there was something special happening. If you focus and watch closely, it was an act of remarkable precision. Riddhima was holding a sewing needle in her mouth and Armaan was holding a thread -end in mouth and he was trying to pass the thread through the needle's eye. Sid was working on his thought "mujhay Riddhima par shak kartey huay bhi apne aap par ghussa aata hai" Since he was getting angrier, hence with his logic he must have initiated his shak evaluation process.
Riddhima turns her head and sees Sid and Armaan face being so close to her that his direction changes automatically, you can see a certain disappointment on his face. Armaan, releases his lift lock, disengages her and lowers her on to the ground. Sid walks away in disgust. I thought he would tell Armaan and Riddhima ke "main to pehlay hi kehta tha ke Riddhima tumharey saath khush rahey gi".. but nahin kaha. As they walk away, Riddhima follows Sid, although few seconds back she could not walk but now she could walk much faster. It was Armaan spritual-medicinal lift which cured the twist in her ankle. Armaan again was on the same track, Riddhima mujhay chor gaye hai. Sid ke liye Riddhima important hai.. mera kiya hoga kaaliay? kitnay aadmi thay? he kept talking to himself.
Not only Armaan who has been shown has highly unstable, unethical and selfish person, who constantly kept hitting on a married woman. Sid was the one who confused Armaan about Riddhima. Convincing him that his wife loved her and will be happy with him. Somehow Armaan and Sid never registered as to what Riddhima and been telling them. They completely lived in the fools paradise. All other fools left the paradise as they felt, they were no match to these two.
Riddhima kept quiet earlier and even in the jungle, when she was tricked by the kids, then Armaan's manhandling, groping (feeling) or I can write feeling (groping) her, fell on top of her and and almost broke her leg.
When she fell in the jacuzzi running after her dupatta, Armaan jumped after (and on) her in the jacuzzi, he acted as the life guard at the jacuzzi, and held her tight not letting her drown in one foot of water, he did not even think once about putting his life in danger in the shark infested jacuzzi. He kept her in that position in the muddy water till the color of her dress became brown. This procedure is important and known to trained people only.
Note:
Similar procedures are carried out for Astronauts returning from space. They are kept in pressure chambers for sometime. And also for deep sea divers. In short it was technically required to save her life.
EndNote:
This jacuzzi was more of a Viagra Falls for Armaan. Then he carried her back, and she washed herself in the garden and again Armaan threw her in a second water tub. Those who have been involved in developing photographs would understand that the photo papers once exposed to light has to go through various chemicals for treatment. Probably Armaan's reason for throwing her into various water bodies was to see if her dress becomes thinner and transparent. He also wanted to kept her wet (he must have heard this 'Slippery when wet' for sure) and cold so her foot continues to hurt. All this time Riddhima did not resist enough for me to recognize that she does not want it. Her attitude was, I am not asking him to do it, if he is doing it must be his fault. And when Sid came Riddhima realized that now she needs to talk because Armaan has stopped talking.
So this was a drama in the court acted by kids. Judge is a kid, defense and prosecution lawyer are kids, defendant is a kid, all the witnesses are kids.. so this is what one can expect or still it could be worst?
Scene changes
Interns funny track starts.. Khalnayak? Shut Up! Mars!
Scene changes back to Sid and Riddhima.
Riddhima now can almost run after Sid and Sid is about to sit in his car, she stops him. Sid is angry as she did not meet him, but did he not slam-dunked her. (his flashbacks are helping him with his anger-management)
Riddhima says "Sid jaisa tum samjh rahey ho waisa kuch nahin." The viewers have seen much more than what Sid has seen. Could Riddhima not understand the moves of Armaan. Sid does not agree that what he has seen is not true.
She tells him that Armaan was helping her because of her foot injury.. but was that the whole truth? Someone ask Armaan. Sid airs out his frustration using his taunting machine gun, burst after burst. He was in control of the situation till he named Armaan, then divorce papers and Riddhima started shouting at him.
So the lesson learnt is to always discuss one point at a time. He also blames her that she used him. Armaan steps in and stops him from talking to Riddhima, because Armaan believes that flirting or making sexual advances on to females is right, but one should not talk rudely. This was the right time and reason for Sid to punch Armaan. Why did he not do it? They had an entire punching episode in the corridor.
As the outcome of this heated discussion and drama, Sid leaves and surprisingly Armaan is trying to instigate Riddhima against Sid, Sid tum se kiss tarah baat kar raha tha, why is she taking it. Laiken aik dafa bhi Armaan ne nahin socha ke agar koi apni biwi to iss tarah kissi ke saath dekhay to kya aik photo-shoot karway? Khush ho, mithai bantey. But Riddhima does not pay any heed to his makkari, she is worried about Sid. He might hurt himself. Her acting is similar to that when she went to look for Armaan with Sid. Now its other way around. She asks Armaan to help her find Sid.
Sid is driving his car but himself has been driven crazy by Riddhima and Armaan. Through flashbacks, and avoiding a full beam and a horn, he hits his car on the roadside. (abhi car ka engine theek karwaya tha aatey huay.)
As Riddhima's judgment about him was correct, she reached there in time. There was streak of blood coming out from the edge of his right eye. I guess if a person does not have brains then there is no blood. He might have put in a red liquid surma in his eyes.
In the Orphanage emergency treatment room lies Sid, unconscious. Armaan prepares an injection which he tells to Riddhima "yeh pain killer hai" Riddhima's pain is Armaan, she should have asked him to take it. (it would have killed her pain) And again Armaan pushes himself close to her and asks her to strip till the elbows, he wanted her to have IV? or does he want her to strip in steps? Since Sid was also in the room. He refrained from suggesting that she needs to take off her skin tight shirt in one go.
Sid opens his eyes and again sees Riddhima with Armaan. Luckily they also see him opening his eyes, Sid tries to get up and Riddhima rushes on the other side of the midnight (bed) away from Armaan and tries to stop Sid. Armaan like a doctor on Nip & Tuck utters his medical jargon, Sid tumhara ligment.. blah blah.. Riddhima uss ko rokti hai. "Sid ye main tum par ehsaan nahi kar rahi, main apna farz nibha rahi hoon aur main tumhari patni hoon." Armaan always tries to look dejected and confused whenever he sees Riddhima is trying to get close to Sid.
Sid tells her to get aside. "Riddhima aagay se haat jao!" (he wants to drive thru her) Riddhima eik taang par phudaktey (limping) hui darwazey ki taraf jaati hai. Samajh nahi aata ke khush hai ya takleef main. Was she trying to put it across to Sid that she was hurt when Armaan lifted her, and she bolts the door from inside. I am sure Sid's third eye did capture her limping.
She insists him to stay and he wants to go home and Riddhima says "I will go wherever you will go!" Is she feeling a guilt of cheating on him or does not want to be left alone with Armaan.
She could have easily given Dr. Kirti a shut up call when she was pressing her to go and join Armaan. She could have taken 5 minutes and met Sid before leaving the hospital. She could have told the kids to behave when they were trying to trick her and to top it she should have walked back to the orphanage instead of strolling with Armaan. I still think there are a few holes in the story. Come on ease back guys & gal. I know! I know! you are all jumping.. I know that the story is made of holes joined together.. I am not that naive as I appear from my posts.
As someone mentioned Riddhima was a gyne till last year and she just carried out an open-heart surgery, with just a pair of scissors and a medium sized cotton ball, probably Sid was the spiritual healer.
This time Armaan turns out to be the only expert for Sid operation. Is it not a character convenience? To make it real they could have shown at least one flashback where he is operating on someone. I need to verify that if there is any restriction on showing flashbacks of surgical procedures or implants. I am sure if there is a case for implants or enhancement, Armaan will again turn out to be the only expert. But will he be able to even complete the procedure? The guy even can't control his gushing hormones, how can he be an expert. Sid tells Riddhima that you know that Armaan is the expert in this field but you don't know he is also expert in stealing other people wife. So we have heard of body snatchers, purse snatchers, mobile snatchers, but on DMG they have introduce a new area of expertise.. wife snatching. (it must an off-shoot of wife swapping).
Coming next week
Armaan in the locker room tells Riddhima that he loves her and will always love her. He keeps acting as if he on a see-saw. When he goes up he sees reality and when he comes down he sees legs..
I have a very good idea. How to treat Armaan once for all. (my friend thinks its not possible.. but read this!)
When Sid and Riddhima consummate their marriage they should keep Armaan in the same room, but tightly tied in chains away from the bed. As a special precaution his mouth should be stuffed with Sids socks or underwear, so that he can not pass any comments or give any tips to Sid or say something to Riddhima (meri-riddhima par sipahi baita hai) . This way not only will he believe it but will also enjoy it. To avoid any unexpected glitches, the area in which Armaan is tied up should be in the dark so that Sid cannot see him and may tell him ke tum Riddhima ko zyada khush....
