We have all been deep in despair over the way in which PR was been wrecked and the characters eviscerated ruthlessly by the CVs. There seemed to be nothing but more gloom ahead for all of us. Today, however, there were some signs of hope, faint as yet, but distinct.
It started with the lunch at a restaurant . While we have been exasperated for quite a while about the incoherent and arbitrary way in which the script seems to be developed from one episode to another, sometimes the CVs do pull a rabbit out of the hat. Take the lunch, to which Teju drags Purvi, forgetting to tell her that Arjun and Ovi will also be there. We were busy thinking of the best way for Purvi to handle this, and I had voted against her turning a cold shoulder to Arjun as this would look very odd and would raise suspicions. There was even talk of another gentleman coming up and accosting Purvi and thus making Arjun jealous.
In the event, the CVs put the lunch to good use, as some of you might have seen. For the benefit of those who are still to get it, the actual meal goes off smoothly, with Purvi composed and polite, if a little distant (she tries to leave after she sees Arjun there, but Teju squashes it and she stays on).
At the end of the meal, Arjun suddenly tells Ovi he has something important to tell her. Purvi is all ears, wondering if the actually means to come out with the truth in such an inappropriate setting. But Arjun has another and rather clever idea. He asks Ovi how the case is coming along, and once the details are explained by Ovi to Teju, Purvi is saying to herself that this was why Arjun could not talk to Ovi about them at the party. While she is thinking this to herself, Arjun SMSes her "This was the reason why I could not tell Ovi about us at the party. Now do you trust me?" Purvi reads it and then, as she gets up to leave, Arjun says "Don't worry, it will be ok". He is apparently talking to Ovi about the case, but he is looking at Purvi and she knows that he is referring to their problem.
It was quite a neat little trick, and he scene was a great improvement on the earlier planned restaurant scene with Arjun saying "I love you" to Ovi and looking at Purvi. Moreover, Ovi is quite polite to Purvi and invites her to sit down, saying that they have all been waiting just for her.
DK is also going to come back to Mumbai very soon; he seemed dismayed by Manav's talk of fixing the date for the marriage.
Lastly, Punni is getting set to cozy up to Ovi and tell her that Arjun and Purvi are having an affair, which she thinks will make Ovi break off the engagement (she doesn't know Ovi's tenacity at all, evidently). As she is certain that after the engagement, Purvi would not marry Arjun, she dreams of the road being clear for herself. One's breath is taken away by the sheer audacity of the girl, she is truly of the bulldog breed that never lets go!
So there is going to be a race between DK and Punni right now for who is to break the news about Arjun and Purvi to Ovi/ Manav. Let us see who gets there first. At least things are beginning to move in the right direction on the Arjun-Purvi front.
