For the purposes of saving my optimistic mood, I'm not going to dwell on the precap and what it means and that goes double for LM's distressing fb status. Like really?!?!?😡😆 ... We can't stop what's to come but they kept me (or us) very happy until now so I'm staying P-O-S-I-T-I-V-E. [Watch how I regret this in the next two weeks!😆]

More important things! ArHi!
I'll admit I was slightly wary of today's episode before I watched it because after almost two weeks of simply amazing ArHi moments I thought today would be a filler or so so but I guess they had to end what they started Saturday with: a BANG ... and oh boy they did. Can I also say, what a long day?!?! Havan that was meant to happen on Saturday finally happened today?!!?
😆

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Arnav's pacing! How much I loved it but more then that the reason behind it. There maybe different takes on it but the way I saw it, his pacing back and forth was his restless to know if Khushi had worn the bangles NOW that she knew he was the one who bought them for her! 😆

His tension to know whether it made a difference to her that he got them, whether she would wear them now or throw them away!😆 When she finally descends down the stairs - the inquisitive, curious glances at her hidden wrists, the wait for her to expose them, for him to see a glimpse. It was slow cruel torture for him, I loved the way he kept pretending not to stare and care whether she was wearing them or not - but she could see right through it.

Khushi taunting him, bang on! He won't tell her, she won't show him and we're talking about ArHi so the stubbornness is bound to be there! I couldn't help but giggle every time Khushi would forcefully cover her wrists with her dupatta as if intending for it to scream at Arnav - "first tell me, then I'll show you if I'm wearing them or not" - they truly are equals at winding each other up!😆

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then came the great Prasad trick of '12 - I guess if ASR were to sit and think about this, he'd realise he in the end had use God's help to get what he wanted!😆 I love that his IMMEDIATE thought is to use it as a way to see the bangles, really gives a sense of how much he really needed to know and how little everything else occupies his mind or matters to him these days!😛

👏 I still enjoy these little moments when they can sense each other, like in this scene, I love the way Khushi instantly looks down and becomes a little shy the moment she feels Arnav's eyes on her!❤️


Yet this scene is one of favourites in the whole episode maybe the whole week! It's just brilliant.
SaRun were really in form for this moment - this scene portrays the impact Khushi has on Arnav - the change she brings in him and I think for the first time Khushi saw this change and it left her a little memorised and mystified!

First he is smirking at her holding the prasad whilst she looks back at him bewildered but then she clicks on - he's cornered her. Now she has to show! Bua Ji is a doll and I love how Arnav's smirk becomes more and more prominent when Khushi get's told she shouldn't be covering her hands with the dupatta!



Yet the second Arnav see's the bangles perfectly decorating her delicate wrist - that smile changes and loses it's cockiness and gains so much meaning.

It's one of pure content, perfect delight. His eyes simply remain on her hands and it almost looks like he is blushing a little, honestly watch the scene again, and it does, he can't help but hide his joy. As if he's just gotten a silent acceptance, then his eyes travel to meet her mystified gaze and there is new sparkle in them, glittering with joy. Then once again he begins to smile, and it's so unguarded, so blissful it catches Khushi Kumari Gupta utterly off guard, she can't help but gaze at him completely taken aback.

Her reaction defines this scene! It's one the turns from being completely mystified - her own "what the...?" to a slow realisation, she's actually seeing the "Khushi" she can give him, the effect she has on him. No wonder it surprises her, usually she's always managed to evoke his ridicule, his anger but this was completely different ... so much so that a creeping smile begins to show on her face too and she's already smiling with her eyes!😍

But then Arnav turns away yet she is completely caught up in his smile, his reaction and his little confession!

Arnav however is on cloud nine or something of the sort, I love the way he turns back, once again to see the bangles on her wrists - honestly the "perfect fit" and he can't help but smile again, so content that he misses Akash speaking to him whilst Khushi again becomes restless under his gaze.😆

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Quest for the Truth phases - "Errr, I don't know what you're saying! ... "
"DM ki kasam. Yeh bhatt hum aapke mooh se manve ke ragenghe!"😆

The next sequence of events are quintessential Khushi and Arnav moments, initially being awkward when they realise that they're placed next to each other in the photo! Then Khushi realising it's the perfect opportunity to further push him to admit - I adore the way she's so proudly making them clink together and taunt him with the noise. But Arnav's semi-irritated but mostly amused reaction and facial expressions make the scene! He can never hide his reactions to Khushi's innate goofy, quirky, bubbliness!😆



Khushi's failed attempt to invoke the jealousy in Arnav doesn't work either! I love the contrast here! When NK's ogling over the bangles, she's quick to shout "Arnav ji" - naughtily smile at him to see if she's got his attention and then resume with her flirtation BUT this time it doesn't work.

Arnav knows where he stands now, she may talk and behave one way but after all she's wearing the bangles he gave her - nothing else matters to him. I love the *not-this-time* face he makes and walks off looking smug. Yet she slyly looks back to see his reaction only to find he's long gone! 🤣 It didn't work this time!😆

Arnav's same confidence is mirrored in the way he's looking at NK - comically but intently when NK is showing him the pictures as if to say "Brother, you have no chance. I won."😆

Finally she gets to him! Oh boy does she get him!😆 Full marks to Barun for such natural facial expression transition!😆 From a smug face to actual huffing and puffing!

"Bekar, vahiyat aur gaityan!"
> I wonder, what was she dissing, the bangles or someone or something else?!?!🤣

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Poolside poetry - ping-pong! I could type a lot about this scene so I'll keep it to the bare essentials!🤣 I loved how both poolside moments flip between light ArHi bickering and banter to deeper, probing of their relationship.

On the one hand they're calling each other out on their odd behaviour and cleverly teasing each other!

"Aapko kaise pata? Aapne kabhi chudiyan pehne hain?"🤣

"Excuse me? Bhattana hoga? Yeh Khushi Kumari Gupta bolri hain, ya har waqt uske sar par chara hua pagalpan?" 🤣

I love how playful Arnav is in this scene whilst Khushi gets carried away but then the moment she thinks she's over-stepped the line with dissing him, she backs away prepared to be fired down by him but instead she's surprised! So much has changed indeed!

He's relaxed enjoying the bickering, she's slightly on edge but pretends and puts on a strong, confident and assertive front.😆



Then he starts mirroring her body language! Love it! I've said this before, when there is attraction this bound to happen - but here this illustrates how infused Arnav is into this conversation with her!😳

"Kya aapne humari liye chudiya khardi thi?" she indignantly asks, she knows the answer but she's intent on hearing him say it but her reaction makes it clear she wasn't prepared. I love her bewildered "Kyun?" and how her eyes widen and she unfolds her arms, as if his confirmation has unwrapped her, chipped a bit off her wall of stubbornness.

Eeek, the confidence with which Arnav says
"Haan. Tumhari liye chudiyan maine hi khardi" and how he reinforces it. Reiterates that HE - Arnav Singh Raizada went and purchased bangles for HER! Just her. Does that not speak volumes in itself and here she wants to know why!!?😆

Then they bicker more. True to nature!
"If you hate them. Don't wear them!"
"Can't you see, I am wearing them! LOOK" > freeze.




They both freeze. So he bought her bangles and she's wearing them and it's the "PERFECT FIT" but what does it mean? No - they both realise what it means, but who's going to let it show what means and admit to the other what it means?!!?




The next scenes were beautifully executed, the fact that they both turn with their back to each other not because of anger etc but because they're both unwilling to face the truth or place it front of other. Both reluctant to reveal what it is and afraid of what it could mean! 😳

Yet Khushi still asks with a softness in her voice, searching "Kyun? Aapne humari liye chudiyan kyun khardhi?" --- Eeek Rabba Ve was so fitting here, the way Arnav takes a short breath and gently turns around and gazes at her - Barun's eyes are so emotive! Bravo!👏 This will sound odd but the man has doe eyes! I tell you!😍



He can communicate so much with those eyes - that look is laced with so much love, so much tenderness😍 and a small smile starts appearing onto his face as he takes a step towards her!


------- MASSIVE SHOUT-OUT TO THE ORIGINAL RABBA VE tune PLAYING! I missed it MUCHOS -------




Turning point comes, he takes another breath and it hits him - what it could mean if he answers why, if he confesses. I love the way he looks down and begins to frown, as if suddenly a heavy weight hits him. He isn't ready to take that step or he's not ready for what it means if he takes that step ... that "what if?!" and he gulps and the ASR in him wins and answers coarsely instead. "Tumhari har sawal ka jawab dehna zaroori nahin hai." and stalks out of there! He has an internal dilemma - a battle in himself. He used to scoff at love and here he was about to admit that LOVE was the reason he bought her bangles??!

But Khushi steals the moment here, his harsh, aloof reply isn't enough to demean her or insult her, instead she's disappointed that he didn't admit! Yet the chinking bangles remind her and reflect that he does love her - I love how she can't help but smile at them, hope right there, proof enough.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you've read this then it should be clear to you that I'm clearly in denial about this coming doom - separation track. I was enjoying these two taunting each other! Hmph.😆

So here we are - her IMPATIENCE to know and his RELUCTANCE to reveal!

If you read all of this please comment and let me know your thoughts!🤗😛

Much love
~ Ouma

I think the prasad scene was really awesome...it just reminded me of the paint ad that Barun & Sanaya did... aap girgit ki tarah rang badalte hai... aur tum meri har rang mein dhal jaatiho!!!
Arnav tricked her flawlessly and she just had to give-in but in the end it was all worth it...

Awesome post !!! It was a pleasure reading your analysis.😳
Today's episode had so much meaning altogether for ArHi. He bought her bangles, she wore them. He wanted to see whether she wore them or not. She did. That just defined their whole situation. If he had gifted her bangles previously, she may not have wore them. However, times have changed. has changed. Both are in love, yet hesitate to accept. I guess they both will take some more time in confessing this.
Coming to the prasad scene, it was absolute heaven! I actually took some seconds to process his smile as it's so rare! 😳 It was beautiufully executed. Secondly, i love the look she gave Arnav when she screamed 'Arnav ji' infront of NK. That reflects her beauty. On the whole, it was an awesome epi. ⭐️

I love Tant (Tanthya) no second doubt. But, your lucid way of explaining the scenes is growing into me slowly slowly. 😃 Good job. 👏 Keep it up even when the harsh time comes. It would be tough to carry on but I know your explaining skills we spread the positive attitude in the forum. Fantastic.

btw, your id suggests that you're Ian Somerhalder fan 😆 I like him too . 😆

I love your write up and analysis... 👏 Excellent description of the episode, scene by scene..

The rhetoric by Khushi at the poolside "kya aapne Kabhi choodiya paheni hai kya" was fantastic and hilarious.. she realised her mistake immediately and was a bit fearful of ASR's reaction... But he did not flare up today.. he was cool, calm and collected... what a brilliant performance by both the leads..

I loved the photo shoot... she was child like in that scene holding her hands almost into his face... I am sure when Shyam sees those photos he will be frothing and fuming...

Anjali & Naani were a treat to watch... they were enjoying the aankhon ki gustakiyan played out by these two...

I read somewhere that Buaji (don't know her real name) too will be moving onto another serial for sometime... with NK and Buaji gone we may have to settle for Maami & Shyam ... I don't expect much from Akash & Payal ... they are cold as ICE!!

You are right... we must not worry too much about the pre-cap or what was written on LM's FB... Let's savour today's episode to get through this weekend...

Cheers
