I'm betting last week the writers got an early Christmas bonus so decided to bless us with heavenly PhAb moments filled epi.
Staring off with Abhay in white shirt. Yes Abhay in white lounging outside with soft wind ruffling his soft hair. Sigh if that wasn't enough he gets up only to gaze lovingly at moon and smile. Smile!? Yes Abhay in white smiled at the moon. (Honestly thats a crime) For a moment I was confused at this as why on earth would Abhay suddenly decide to smile that too while looking at the moon...certainly he isn't like the other earthly creatures who when in love gaze at moon and smile thinking about their loved ones but then I reasoned to myself so what if he is angry most of the time and hardly lets his face muscles relax into a beautiful smile. For all we know he maybe appreciating the beauty of nature. Since we don't know much about his background or how he is I decided to give him benefit of doubt.
Now just as I was getting over the smile behold Phulwa walked in that too carrying the green bucket which magically transports from one place to another. Now some one would ask why this girl who aint allowed to do any work in the house is doing outside at this hour of the night? Answer she was just trying to impress her newly manaofied sasu ma. Yes peeps that my reason. Again satisfied with my own reason I watched on wondering why Abhay or Phulwa haven't uttered any insults so far or why none of them is rushing to the door when Abhay taunted her and in turn Phulwa did the same. But just as I was preparing myself for a retort from Abhay he just stood there and let her do the talking and not only that he actually heard her and even let his lips twitch a bit. Shocking as it was I continued to watch only to get more jhatkas from CVs when Phulwa slipped bringing the cloth lines down with her and then Abhay like a true hero rushed to her aid.
I was lost in their beauty as much as they were in each other when from nowhere the white sheet came flying down only to cover them wholly. And for those few seconds it was just him and her while the whole world disappeared. But then the lights came on and the dream broke. And just when I had convinced myself it can't get better it started to rain!!
Yes rain! When lights went off I had convinced as my friend Vita said that they are short on budget but then rain and light both came together and I started cheering! (See the channel did gave them a bonus)
(Have to say it- Abhay in white, dripping wet, looking at the camera with those expressions!! Seriously I think CVs are planning to give us a heart attack with such scenes! 😳)
But the jhatkas did not end there. No siree! They continued one after the other with the major one being Abhay picking up Phulwa in his arms. What a sight! The way despite her refusal he picked her up because he could sense her pain and knew she needed help was just beautiful. The best part was Phulwa wasn't really surprised nor did she object again however she did hesitate for a moment there not sure where to place her hand but she finally did and firmly held onto him.
And then came the flashbacks! Though I'm not a fan of FBs but at this moment they were needed I guess for they showed that the old feelings that they had long buried were still there.
And in that one moment the longing and care returned. They seemed oblivious to the fact that they were getting soaking wet in rain and just continued to stare in each others eyes. Abhay mesmerized by her beauty seemed to had eyes only for her while Phulwa looked a bit shaken. For Abhay it seemed just the right thing to do; hold Phulwa in his arms while he lovingly gazes at her.
It was only after that they entered the house that the realization hit them and the pain of losing and what could have been flooded in...The closeness brought back the old familiar feelings but with it also came the knowledge that what they feel can never be.
Sigh. The ending was very heartbreaking (Another jhatka by CVs to bring us back to reality. :|) so I will not go there but for those few moments when they were in each other arms and time had seemed to stop, it felt just right...even to them.
