Decisions...For Better or For Worse! (Edited)

I'm back with another random post. Had no plan to make this...but the epi today has made me blabber again. Needless to say, today Badi Beeji was the STAR! Absolutely LOVED the woman and the entire Badi-Beeji Manvi scenes. We all were speculating that either Beeji, or Virat will bring Manvi to the wedding. Some of us were thinking that Jeevika will take a stand...and Viren will also take her side and Beeji will have to call Manvi (well, this still is a possibilty as per me...esp, after the precap). I'm sure that Viren will join Jeevika and won't go ahead with the wedding rituals, till Manvi comes there. And mayb...we get a Viren-Swamini scene again...just like we had one for the necklace issue. Sorry for going off topic...bad habit of predicting, so got into explaining that 😳😆
Coming back to the point...
The sangeet ceremony saw an unpleasant end...Manvi's attempt to cheer everyone and make the evening a fun filled and happy one, backfired. Unintentionally, she did something, which she didn't realize could have such repercussions. I'm not going in the details of what Manvi did was right or wrong...coz we have different view points on it...and i don't wanna start an argument here. Also, that's something of the past now...so, no point in dwelling on it now.
The reason i'm mentioning this is...this mistake from the girl changed the entire scenario of the wedding...not just for herself...but for everyone involved in the wedding, esp. each member of her own family.
Swamini asked Beeji to keep Manvi away from the wedding...and Beeji had no other option, but to adhere to this...after all, it was what one of the most important person's in Jeevika's in-laws wanted. So, if i may put it like this...Swamini, without being harsh, without being impoilte...conveyed her DECISION to Beeji, to keep Manvi away from her sister's wedding.
Manvi had made a huge blunder and there was no way Beeji could justify it and defend the young girl. So, she broke the news to Mannu, with a heavy heart...that she cannot attend her sister's wedding. Beeji's DECISION was clear...Manvi had to stay away from the wedding; if she wants to see Jeevika happy...if she doesn't want any further hitch in the wedding...and if she wants all the remaining functions to go on smoothly. An extremely harsh punishment for Manvi...the worst she could ever get...but if her staying away could bring happiness for Jeevika...if it ensures that everything would go smoothly...and if it means no problems in any of the functions...then heck, she'd not attend the wedding at any cost. This was Manvi's DECISION! She can bear this pain herself...but cannot even imagine being the reason for her sister's heart break, whom she knows loves Viren dearly, and has started dreaming of a blissful life with him. Her own pain, her grief, her loneliness is nothing as compared to her sister's happiness...a sister who means the world to her!
So, the chain of decisions keeps on getting longer n longer...and all these are related to one person's happiness..and that is, Jeevika! But do they even realize what implications will these decisions have on her??
Swamini...ok, i won't say much about her...coz she is not directly linked to Jeevika yet. Yes, she wants her happiness...but the reason she doesn't want Manvi to attend the wedding is...she doesn't want a repeat of what all happened on the sangeet ceremony. She is concerned not just for Viren, Jeevika...but also cannot see anyone passing comments on her family...and also on Jeevika's family. Also...as per her...its good for Jeevika, if Manvi stays away from the wedding...coz this would mean no blunders from her...and no tears and worry for Jeevika that come with Manvi's such immature acts. Swamini is very clear in her mind...like she said today..."shadows are not permanent...they disappear as the sun sets..." but she didn't realize that these shadows, which disappear as darkness grows...reappear with the next dawn. Also, Manvi is not Jeevika's shadow...she is a part of her existence...a part without which she cannot live! So, not a very good decision by Swamini to keep Manvi out of the wedding picture.
Coming to Beeji...for the first time, i found her a bit unreasonable today. Does she really think that... she can cover up for Manvi's absence...that Madan, Pinky, Dabbu will not look for her...that Jeevika's in-laws will not ask about her...and that Viren will not notice her not being there?? Most important of all...doesn't she know that Jeevika will not go ahead for ANY of the rituals without her sister being on her side?? Beeji has stopped Manvi from coming to the wedding for Jeevika's sake na...does she really think that if Manvi is not there...Jeevika will not notice it, will not try to find her, will not go crazy thinking about her...and will happily get married?? Wrong decision, Beeji...you clearly faltered here.
Manvi...yes, she was forced to stay away...but somewhere, she herself surrendered...coz she doesn't want ANYTHING to go wrong in her sister's wedding. She can't even let her own self come b/w her sister's happiness...and hence, for the first time, probably...she gave up...and decided to adhere to what Beeji said. Didn't she also realize what it would be for Jeevika, not to have sister with her on the most special day of her life?? She really thinks that Jeevika will not care for Mannu...and will go ahead and perform all the rituals?? Jeevika...would just forget her sister now...coz she's getting married...and her life's gonna change...and thus, it won't matter to her if Manvi is not there?? Again...totally miscalculated move by Manvi...she didn't go to attend the wedding so that nothing goes wrong...but this is the biggest wrong itself...and Jeevika's lines in the precap are a proof of that!
Coming to Jeevika...the most special day of her life...she's getting married to her dream man...everything looks beautiful...there is love, care, fear, apprehensions...and with all these emotions, she is looking forward to this new phase of her life. But without her knowledge...the decisions that have been taken for HER sake...for the sake of HER happiness...when she will get to know of them...all these emotions would come crushing down...and sadly, no one realized about this. To cater to these...she will take a DECISION herself...and that is...if her sister is not there...how can she possible get married?? Right or wrong...its another aspect...but the fact remains...whatever was being done for her happiness...ended up in giving her nothing else but tears...of pain, sorrow, grief.
Amidst all these decisions...only one person knows what actually has to be done. The sensible and the wise DECISION comes from Badi Beeji! Hats off to you. In all these acts of staying away, covering up, hiding pain, crying n wat not...her one line summed it all..."for one daughter's happiness, i can't buy tears for the other daughter"...the fact remains...if there is happiness, it is mutually for both...and if there are tears...then one possibly can't cry alone. So...for Jeevika's happiness on her wedding day, Manvi HAS to be there...and for Manvi to be happy, she HAS to participate in every part of her sister's wedding and make it a memorable one for her.
On a side note...one decision that i loved today was made by Dr. Mannan...of NOT attending the wedding. 😆 Like Jeevika, I was also relieved to know that he's not coming 😆
Dunno what I've written...im sure this is utter non-sense...but still sharing it wid u all. Comments and chappals (which i am expecting for this post) are more than welcome! 😳
P.S.: Sorry for any typos in the post guys...i'm sure there would be lots of them...IF kept on playing a spoilsport and I had to write the entire thing thrice ...And since its very late...haven't proof read. 😳
-Edited-
I guess, there is some sort of a confusion here. It seems i haven't been able to explain the Swamini bit properly...so, i'll just clarify what i wrote;
I haven't said anywhere in my post that whatver Swamini, Beeji, Manvi, Jeevika did, are dre doing n will do is right ot wrong. I have just mentioned abt the "decisions" they took in the circumstances that eveloved during the sangeet ceremony.
Personally, i have defended each three of them at different levels. I can totally understand Swamini's reaction after Sangeet...Beeji's telling Manvi not to attend the wedding...Manvi's resolve to stay away...and now, Jeevika's stand to have Manvi wid her. So, no where i have said that any of them was wrong or right...it is about the decisions.
Its just like, sometimes, we makes decisions which we think are best for a member of our family, or our loved one's...but what we don't realize is...our decision might leave them with even more worry. In the same context, when i said, Swamini asking Beeji to keep Manvi away from the Vadera family and/or functions...wat i meant was...the same decision might complicate things for her family, Viren, Jeevika and Jeevika's family. I didn't bash the character...neither said that this is what she, or beeji, Manvi, Jeevika should have done...I was talking in the context of "decisions" only in my post!

lol@ Again...totally miscalculated move by Manvi

classic Maanvi move...even if she tries to do something good, it backfires...i wonder how come this girl is not suffering from major personality complex!! But she is too cute..

Agree Badi Beeji was the star...another coconut of the show...hard exterior, soft interior!!

but what was up with Swamini Bua? Did she get the hint that Beeji Jr was keeping Maanvi away or did she fear seeing the latter's face with every new story that Beeji spun out? Her expressions did not clarify hence the question...though her dialogue was solid...saaya bhi saath chod deta hai...
Makes me wonder abt how many days she has spent playing dark room,dark room & what is the story behind her single status!!! Curious thats my middle name!! LOL

Disclaimer: spare my mood.. its nasty today.. So I may come across as really blunt😆
I guess you wrote the post in parts.. coz in a lot of places you have gone in circles to drive one point home.. brevity is a virtue Ashu😆 and I feel like I can be critical of you or your post.. you know me.. I dont come with pretty gift wrapping😆

now coming to the whole context.. you know my whole prerogative for decision making is rather clear.. self respect.. like you mentioned 2 ppl stood up for sel-respect.. today and they were the ONLY good parts of the epi.. those 2 being Badi Beeji like you mentioned.. and Manan.. can I say I simply loved the dignity he gave his own feelings .. I strictly live by if you dont respect yourself no one else ever will..

now coming to the whole fiasco after the sangeet.. I totally support Swamini.. she stood up for her family's honor and her self respect..and clearly said you havent been cautious enough to avert this fiasco.. which in the first place was Beeji's carelessness to give Manu such a responsibility and not monitor it.. Putting Pinky in-charge is like putting dabbu in charge.. Swamini clearly told her to keep Manu away from her and her family.. not away from the wedding per se.. I hope she is not stupid to insinuate that..coz she shld know that wld only bring more attn towards Manu..

What Beeji should have done without bending her back so much is to reprimand Manu.. make sure she attended the wedding without any responsibilities given to her.. just as Jeevika's aide and almost a guest... tht wld have kept Jeevika unaware and wld have taken care of their emotions too.. its no rocket science that what she thought wld be the best decision is just putting her foot more in the mouth..😆

today I kinda felt bad for Jeevika.. I wld be glaring mad if on my wedding day I had to spend my whole evening worrying abt my sibling's whereabouts.. rather than them tending my jarred nerves.. 🤣 I dont even take kindly to someone trying to steal my thunder on b'days.. 😆

And like I said the precap pissed me off.. reading abt it did.. watching it defo did..😆 what BS drama is this.. family panchayat in the wee hrs.. cld they not have done this the night b4.. and come to common decision as a family.. Chalo Jeevika stands up for her convictions.. and am glad she said she doesnt mind sitting a bachelorette all her life.. coz I almost think she should.. coz that sibling attachment is highly unhealthy for any spouse to have to partake all life.. which gets me to Viren.. poor guy.. what A thing to overhear right b4 the wedding..🤣like I said if it were me.. I wld run for my life.. away from this alliance.. wld give me another reason to be the runaway bride😆..than to consciously marry someone who just proclaimed that your best shot is being a second fiddle..Lets see how Viren can change tht mindset or if he can.. rather rigid as of now..😆

but of course he will stand up to the current ocassion and deliver.. etc... actually badi beeji made it easy by taking her stand..oh how I miss a IMV/VV in this nonsensical situation.. the best caustic yet true gems wld have come from them in this situation.. the whole track is rather blah.. get tht child to the wedding already and lets get started.. dont care for the excess SP sappiness.. anymore.. nothing really touched me in today' s epi if you didnt figure.. apart from Badi beeji of course.. . and Dabbu ofcourse.. he is always my fave..😆

Why havent we seen Dadi's photo in Dadaji's room at all & no reference to her whatsoever??
How come Vanshika is so sweet all the time & doesnt feel bad when Swamini stakes claim on Viren??
Jeevika needed some character...but it certainly chose its moment to be on display...like seriously just when u r about to get married?? Oh i loved this character development, but cud hav been better timed...but baah its a show rite?
Viren...he will be happy to be second best in his wife's life...why does that sound so unrealistic?IMS does not allow it! oh btw IMS=Indian Male Syndrome...

WOW Ayesha !! 👏 👏

Okie so i did read the whole post. Yes I did 😆 😆

I will go by each Paragraph.

Paragraph 1 : 😆

Loved Badi B. No words for her. I am sure Viren will join Jeevika. As i said before too, I hope he heard the whole conversation and not just "I won't marry" part. LOL. Why do I still think that Virat will be the one who will inform Viren that something is wrong and Manvi is not attending the wedding and then Viren will come to Jeevika. What you think ?? Ammm i don't think they will involve Swamini in this issue. I think this time Viren himself will make decision. He will himself call Manvi in front of the whole family.

Paragraph 2:

Was Manvi really trying to cheer up everyone and make the evening fun fill ?? I don't think so 😕 Like you said, even i don't want to start an argument so won't write much about it.

Paragraph 3 & 4:

Agreed 😆

Paragraph 5&6:

Exactly !! She is just thinking that if she does not attend the wedding, there won't be any problem because of her and her sister will marry happily. Really ??? Is Jeevika really going to marry without her ?

Paragraph 7:

Ammm question, as far as i know, Swamini told Beeji to keep Manvi away from HER and make sure she does not create any more blunders. Did she specifically say that I do not want Manvi to attend the wedding ? Because in today's episode when Vanshika was asking about Manvi's where about and Beeji said she is with Jeevika, The expressions i saw on her face,I was not expecting them from her. She was really cool with it. I thought that after hearing what beeji said, she would be disappointed with Beeji but she wasn't. 😕

Paragraph 8&9:

Agreed. Don't know what Beeji and Manvi were thinking.

Almost there 😆 😆 LOL

Paragraph 10:

Jeevika. Poor girl. I felt so bad for her today. The way she was searching for Manvi. Ahhh Manvi better be there in tomorrow's episode. Otherwise I will throw something at someone. And i want the wedding to be over tomorrow. Please😆 😆

Paragraph 11:

Agreed. The only good thing about today's episode was Badi B.

Done !!! LOOOL

Thank god The Dr. (don't even want to take his name 😆) is not coming to the wedding. I got so happy when he said he is not coming. LOL If he didn't call today, I was actually thinking of calling him and telling him, Please don't attend the wedding. we don't need doctor in the wedding. We found another one. 😆 😆

WOW. I wrote so much. Hope I did not forget any paragraph 😆😆 LOL

Some random questions...
Oh this will be fun.. do you really want the ans..🤣
why didnt Jeevika take blessings from her parents photo...isnt it a SP given?? how many dead parents pic are they gonna show.. finding a hazel eyed man to pass of as Vadera Sr.. wld have taken months.. besides rudraksh mala= parents..😉
Why havent we seen Dadi's photo in Dadaji's room at all & no reference to her whatsoever??
have we ever seen Dadaji's bedroom.. too private you see.. class ki baat hain.. and maybe there is some suspense.. dadiji KAUN..🤣
How come Vanshika is so sweet all the time & doesnt feel bad when Swamini stakes claim on Viren??

She has scoliosis of the spine.. hence bends a lot😆

Jeevika needed some character...but it certainly chose its moment to be on display...like seriously just when u r about to get married?? Oh i loved this character development, but cud hav been better timed...but baah its a show rite?

wat better time than this bachcha.. true character shows up in the dark.. and dark= no shadows😆😉so there.. total TRP garner..


Viren...he will be happy to be second best in his wife's life...why does that sound so unrealistic?IMS does not allow it! oh btw IMS=Indian Male Syndrome...

IMS.. it doesnt even suit my PMS sorry🤣.. No playing second fiddles.. life is flexible.. live it with an open mind.. and strike a good balance.. clearly tht hasnt been everyone's USP in this show.. as of now.. its all abt being skewed
well despite it all...i love the show...🤪 its good timepass as of now for me.. cant say for how long
[/QUOTE]

hope all of the ans are obnoious enough.. I try at times you know😆
