Kudos to jaswant for bringing out the lecherous side of Shakthi so convincingly, we forgot we were seeing an actor performing Shakthi's character and only saw Shakthi...he made us feel revulsion,disgust,aversion,detestation...and still managed to keep us glued to the TV...
Kesar and Shakthi are having Miya-biwi Talk ...Shakthi is inquiring as to the reason why Kesar doesn't want Aarushi here...and the placid Kesar starts by firing a gentle salvo "saying ..You are thinking immoral thoughts of Aarushi, if Krishna Bhaiyya comes to know , he will not like it ' [this goes completely unheeded by Shakthi] and she reiterates that Aarushi is 'Ghar ka Bachi'..which is quickly negated by Shakthi ..He says Aarushi is Krishna's Saali * Ah ! a very fine distinction, first she is removed from his immediate circle of relation's and conveniently puts in Krishna's orbit, Second Saali means she no longer is bachi kyunki Saali aadhi Gharwali hothi hai* ...He issues a veiled threat completely understood by Kesar ..Kesar is seriously worried ...The Anaconda returns to the hall and coils itself waiting for the arrival of the innocent Prey .....The innocent hops in creating a ruckus on its arrival and raising quite a commotion ..The Anaconda raises its hood and is getting ready to lunge, when it suddenly spies that the prey is accompanied by many more of its clan , it restrains itself and lies back fixating its prey and waiting for more opportune time...*The way Shakthi leers , you feel as if worms are crawling all over your body *..
Hearing the noise , the supposed invalid walks out quite majestically and very happy to see that one person, who has loved him unconditionally and also understood him perfectly come to meet him, I am talking about Komal ...Pratigya too is very happy to see Saxena's and there is a small talk amongst Siblings ...All of them are oblivious of the lascivious stare of Shakthi , it is noticed by Kesar and the welcoming smile is wiped off her face ..Komal ribs Pratigya , Adarsh too adds his chorus...Krishna is supremely indifferent and does not respond..on the spur, Komal too thinks of staying over but is cleverly sent back by Shakthi..
Aarushi Playfully clears her throat and teases Krishna by saying don't worry , I will not take ur wife far away from you * Krishna looks uncomfortable* she continues "I know you love Didi very much"* the bitter ironical smile of Krishna, Priceless*..Krishna says that ..Both the sisters can share a room, he will sleep in another room * Pratigya is Not happy *
It is Dinner Time ; Sax Siblings are preparing Dinner..Pratigya comes out with Hot Roti's and announces that Today's Head chef was Aarushi..Instantly, Shakthi Pips up and says That's why The food Is TASTY ...and licks his Fingers suggestively giving Aarushi a bold once over..Aarushi feels awkward , Pratigya gets angry , Kesar dislikes it and Krishna is oblivious ...Shakthi just cant resist , he is staring hungrily...At Aarushi , He wants to know What sort of Man is Aman ?* A very probing and double rentendred Q, leaves u gasping with Outrage*..Aarushi is struck dumb, Pratigya looks uncomfortable and there is a quick exchange of glances between Kriya...
Everybody retire to their room..Pratigya is venting out ...* One thing is clear from her statement, she still is a saxena * ..she says "Mummy Papa would be happy with this alliance, After all they were not happy with my marriage and they had to face so much humiliation bec of my marriage "* No wonder , Ur marriage is in doldrums, if you carry such a low opinion about ur own marriage, how do you think you will make it successful..Change ur attitude , lady* ..
In walks Shakthi...he seems like an iron filling unstoppably pulled to the magnet called Aarushi...He inquires whether Saali saheba is comfortable...and If she wants ANYTHING, she shud ask HIM with out any SHYNESS ....* GOD ! and still this siblings are not getting it *...he turns to Pratigya and says Krishna shud not be left alone bec of his illness and Amma said you have to be with him at night...* Our Girl needed just such an opportunity* she instantly scoots back to Krishna ,*To drive him up the wall*...Aarushi closes the bedroom door and locks it * will it be sufficient for this marauding Bull*
Shakthi Is anointing himself with various perfumes, Kesar is hesitating and trying to warn Shakthi , she even takes Krishna's name but all in vain...The hunt has begun in earnest and the predator will not be balked ...Kesar is duly warned and she looks on in Anguish ..
What will happen next ?? who will save Aarushi ?will she be saved ??what is her role in Kriya relationship....How is Shakthi-Aarushi equation interconnected with Kriya..Is it curtains for Kriya for some time ??Will Kesar open her mouth in time or will she meekly see a young girl's life torn asunder??
