What can i write about this episode, it was glowing and not just Kes-Gul's faces lol
I have to so get use to seeing Kes-Gul in the same shots - one single camera shot lol, we again had that a few times, and finally today we see them talking and so on, and communitcating in balanced manner
3 months is echoing everywhere lol
Ek Nayi Shurawat - Ek Naya Modh - My saying A starting point š
I think Kes-Gul scene summed up everything, in terms of what he was doing, what he did and for Gulaal and as i mentioned yesterday, the fact that the burden of deeyarvatu is off her, she can breathe and not live like its suffocating her... and with extra walls around her, and thats the bit where she has started from as she talks to Kesar on what he has done and done to her, now that she can breathe alittle and after so long see an genuine small smile on her - now this is step 1, to have that burden around her neck off, that was pushing her left, right and center and living hard-heartened ever since she came back
What i loved about scene was the real tears and emotions both on the same wavelength (and Gulaal is the one who came to Kesar), for Kesar it is extra hard, coz he is letting go..., his heart is breaking and you saw that when we see him crying on the bed, neartbreaking also that they got to this point, and all the things he has done, guilt he feels in the sense - he needed to say sorry to her, and we saw that he did, and with both hands and also to accept any punishment she gives him, and after a long time we see Gulaal reach out to him, and like we said yesterday - Kesar in one swift took away the ziddi forceful person he had become in trying to achieve what he wanted (which didnt have wrong intentions but the methods were somewhat wrong and overshadowing the Kesar we see today) and today Gulaal says what he has done, forgives for all the things he has done... and the one thing that Kesar has always wanted to give her is happiness, even though Gulaal today says Kesar has given her that happiness which is true, it does hurt from Kesar pov - that it couldnt be something else but this... but just seeing Gulaal like we did is all that Kesar wants as of now and esp when he said Pls dont be upset with me... that was his yearning and longing
Highlight scene was def Kesar saying we can atleast be friends, and the extending his hands, and with Vasant's photo blurring in the background when Kesar put his hand out, and then Gulaal extending it, then the photo became clear as their hands blurr, i say Vasant sees some light at the end of a very dark tunnel
The handholding was something i feel, i mean i dont think i have ever seen a friend's handshale like that, it felt more of a couple hand holding, in that certain way (if you get what i mean)
Even though we could see Gulaal abit apprenhensive on this dosti thing, but even she knows and Kesar knows - maybe this one thing is what is left between them (which was always between them 'this bond 'this dosti', and they can do and that for the next 3 months
I loved Kesar telling Talli, that he didnt do all this with the intentions of what she was saying, to have Gulaal back and so on... but that saying what Talli says, does hold some truth... Let her go, if she was ever yours, she will come back... and no matter how much you like or dislike Talli, your heart does go out for her in a way, here she is seeing the two ppl she wanted not to be hurting and so on. And the way Kesar patted her head is like a older sibling or parent patting a head, but in all this it does make you think Yeh Talli ka kya hoga aage...
This is the Gulaal i have longed to see atleast for the starting, and most probably all of us - the Gulaal that doesnt quite live as though she is doing a life sentence, and living stone-hearted, it was very much needed for the first step to get rid of that burden (i dont know what else to call it, but this is what it has felt to Gulaal and even Kesar saw it has felt and looked liked to Gulaal) around her neck and around that was written all over her, that she can breathe, this was the crack that was needed to get some of that Gulaal-ness back... also seeing Gulaal today, it feels like she has come home.. to breathe again, start again within herself for now...
Inhibitions between Kes-Gul have gone, they slowly getting back to some normality in themselves and together... and they so needed that, and to talk freely one of that scene was the one where Gulaal asks Kesar what's matter, what is he thinking (from now on Gulaal doesnt look worried or concerned that it could be the deeyarvatu or any other thoughts concering that from Kesar, coz Gulaal believes they have started on a new level and the right foot) as he looks on thoughtful and Kesar seconds later opens up to her and then the kitchen scene
I have to say Gulaal's journey from now will have to be an eye-opener to alot of things (which will also include MB convo, JK lectures/taunts etc), one obviously Kesar... the Kesar she sees now, and will do - look at how she was looking when Kesar was talking to Poonambha, a SIL assuring his MIL, that the most important thing for him is Gulaal's happiness and always will be even if they dont have a relation or dont, nothing else matters or holds value for him and you saw Gulaal kinda like choke her emotions abit in her throat and eyes (Manasi is awesome as she gets each second filled with emotions on her face, always has done), and it did settle Poonambha for sometime, and you can see the pride in Revji baapji and Reva just flowing for Kesar, and also Gulaal's emotions in her eyes... this is the Kesar i feel she will see from now on, esp we have more scenes of Gulaal watching Kesar from afar...
Revji baapji saying that one line, which i felt when Kesar was talking to Poonambha, that Kesar will now on, will entirely look after and take care of Gulaal...
Another thing i found was that i had a feeling Kesar would say he needs to start getting use to her not being around to give him strength in seeing MB and facing certain hard situations that have come, he always had it in him coz she was there and so on - even from his childhood, she was there around, and protecting him most of the time. And maybe this addat of having her around to give strength, will perhaps go after 3 months or even more, or most probably never... these little things that holds value for Kesar and also Gulaal sees and knows, these are the little things that makes them Kesar-Gulaal, together always has done... and these are the little things which i find will be highlighting throughout the 3 months or so.
Motabha and his convo with Kes-Gul, interesting again, again we see them in the same shot entering his room which is filled with darkness, as they reach MB kneeling down, both got a scolding but a good one, to open their eyes on what has become of this whole situation and where is has led them, as for Gulaal - MB told her years ago... look at the result of it today. I had a feeling MB is gonna be more upset that decisions or no one even speaking to him about it, and these decisions they keep making and think that they dont value him as such, to even tell him, esp the ones that are taken in such impulsiveness... back then Gulaal took a decision at the time was RIGHT, i still stand by it so does Gulaal lol, and today even Kesar is RIGHT coz he did it for Gulaal's happiness
If JK had her way, she would drug D and cart him off to get married to any available Chudail, that will side with JK on everything and say yes to anything JK says or wants her to do.. i say Chudail, coz i am sure JK will want a bahu that totally sides with her and not a Gulaal replica. Though it does make you think that Raman in the last 3 episodes, when he does say something in always means that he is planning something... he wants the house back to how it was before
Since everyone is doing the 3 months jaap here, it looks like alot of things will come into it, JK and her fury and trying to get D married off, Sudha i dont see changing, Raman still being Raman - i wonder what he actually tells Durgesh of his house hungama, coz boy there has been alot lol, and really Durgesh should know it all judging by Raman seeing as his friend
Gulaal's stance, even though today she is contented in being free, as i said this is step 1. The talk that Kesar had with Gulaal yesterday, was an eye-opener, but that kind of talk can be felt in that moment which it did to Gulaal and jolted her a few times, and then not dwell on it later, because its one those talks that needs to happen in Gulaal naturally to start seeing life, start feeling, having desires and need, the real effect and dwelling will be when it starts... and i did mention that yesterday that scene in what was said, will have to inter-link (have that significance) with this 3 months thing they have going now and what D said about them seeing the real each other, and that can only happen naturally 'thats why that scene, explosive scene will have to come into play, as time goes on.. by Gulaal feeling those things and so on (thats if she does, i still need to say that lol)
Kitchen scene, loved it, the fact that Gulaal got that something is bothering him and it was MB, and the sense of trust i saw them talking how they will together solve this and to have trust in her and faith (these two things are back - trust and faith) - coz it had Gulaal getting his milk and not chai, i loved that he noticed and called her on in, and she answered why she wasnt forcing the issue of milk on him, coz he used to be angry and annoyed half the time, and not with a certain right she tell him to have milk, and seeing as they are also friends now, so as friends right, then challenges him to make his tea (the Gulaal i know who loved to make bets and challenges, i saw a glimpse of her today) the banter between them is what i find lovely and something that you craved to see and wish they always have... with Gulaal sneakily laughing and calling on his mistake and his just dismissing them, i am making it so i will make it how i want, and in whatever pan lol
Its just good to see Gulaal smiling somewhat... which is coming out naturally as we saw, and this is what should happen, everything naturally... even if right now she seems to have gone back to her ideal life which she always lived, but i am sure somewhere that convo of what Kesar said will come out again, coz no way was Kesar apologizing for that, his mind was made up with the deeyarvatu breaking it off, he just needed to get off what she is doing to herself... which will so have to come into play at some point (certain things always does in this show which is what i love about it, and the writing and how it all inter-connects)
This timespan of 3 months, i can (and wish/hope) only see Gulaal journey towards Kesar and also within, and that too naturally with growing feelings and love from her 'the love that a girl and woman fall in love with those emotions and feelings, and then a sense of fear of letting go when the time comes nearer... when she looks at Kesar, notices this Kesar and so on.
I still feel since yesterday and today Gulaal;s foundation has been laid for her journey... The woman in her... and the deeyarvatu/Kesar
She may never see Kesar as a pati, coz thats a place for Vasant and only Vasant isnt that one thing she has holded onto and sees... but i dont see her not accepting Kesar as Kesar, HER Kesar - what she feels or holds for Kesar, she might not ever give him that place of a hubby esp in feeling but that doesnt mean that what she gives Kesar and holds him to.. will be less then a pati i feel.. Their bond is what makes them, and always has done, the right they have over each other, the exclusiveness they have, what emotions that hold for one another, and feel for one another, the push and pull... the love they have which cant even be defined and should be, the unconditional love, is not anything less then anything, it actually goes beyond... and the question at the end is, can they let each other go... coz what matters is them, not this deeyarvatu as such
PRECAP - JK with her taunts, but the woman does say things in simple terms doesnt she... Did they got to panchayant to break their relation or to join it (which i think any outsider would say if we see how Kes-Gul are today lol) and that Talli/Kesar's marriage was natak, coz she might of started seeing Kesar in a different light ever since he had come back all grown up..Gulaal surprised. Kesar calling Gulaal and as him and Talli are going, and Gulaal also offers to go with them and tells JK to look after the house š
Gulaal has totally got her place back i think, she doesnt feel the unsettleness in some ways, which she did last week, or the taunts getting to her as they did more last week... because last week her emotions and anger was on surface, that she had to keep in check and it got to her more when JK was taunting her and also somewhat Sudha
Though it makes you think about JK's line... Seeing Kesar in a different light... is that hint š
