Heyy All ,
I did not catch the episode at 8 but managed to view the repeat ... wow !! finally loved the episode .
Khushi realizes that filing an FIR will have a ripple effect which will adversely affect the family, She decides against lodging the complaint , leaves quietly and heads home ...Maami is reading a newspaper and sees Khushi coming in ..Khushi bumps into amply blessed maami and Maami drops the paper n hastens away !!
Duality..That was the name of the game throughout the episode ...single moment was used to send out dual messages to the viewer's ...
There was a emphasis on Danger again and Again but when Khushi heads home the hint was that Happiness is on its way again ...Yes, happiness has a sad face but forecast is for happy days ... Another Noteworthy moment was the way Maami stood in the path of Khushi...Maami is going to interfere in the investigation of Khushi and she is going to have a say in the Shyam fiasco ...The clue was given when she called out all the family and became a free BBC radio informing the non arrival of Arnav ... she will continue true to form with Shyam too !!
Khushi picks up the newspaper, notices the ad for Pvt Detectives ..She circles the number , tries to call them and realizes that her cell has discharged or the battery is over ..Khushi picks up the landline and moves to the poolside to make her call while Shyam picks up the newspaper
Khushi picks up the paper and what does she do, she draws a circle..Full Circle ... matlab..we are nearing the end and time for fresh beginning has come ...The information which was kept a secret will have run its course with its lifeline dead ..No more it will plague Khushi cos it would have reached its end !!
Shyam will be holding the clue but will not realize its worth ...Nothing new in that !!
Maami is humming a song and walking by when the phone rings and Maami gets insider knowledge on Khushi's antics ...the song is about Payal wounding and since it is Khushi who wears it ..She either will be hurt or will be responsible for the hurt [physical or emotional still undecided]...we ahve growing evidence that Maami will cross the path of Khushi just to quell her inquisitive nature ...
Khushi runs to Shyam's room and tries to snatch the paper from his hands , scared that he might see the circled detective ad..But Shyam hands it over to Khushi without much ado ...
Here we get the first hint of mellowed Shyam..he is obsessed but right now the obsession is not bordering on fanaticism..he wants to please Khushi On his terms ofc BUT he does do what she wants, hands over her hearts desire on a platter !! Khushi leaves, achieving her goal !!
Khushi makes a call to PDA , gets an appointment , rushes out and is met by Naani , who is putting the pickles in the jar , closing it and preserving it , while Maama wants to see the Marble palace ..
PDA..Prithvi Detective agency , the agency which will find out anything hidden anywhere on Earth ..PDA..Public display of affection... So are we heading to the point where Khushi and Arnav will finally pour out their feelings after being routed from the Earth or from wherever he is hiding ...It does look Like it esp when U consider Mama's wanting to see Taj Mahal..The symbol of love which has withstood time, seasons , generations ...A beacon for lovers !! ...
If these were the connotations for love what then was the hints of Pickling by Naani...Doods has already mentioned that Naani is the Tailor who will stitch together the fabric of relationships ... we already had one hint on it when we saw her stitching the cushion..Today we get further boost on that front, when she carefully and tidily puts all the pickles back into a single jar , uniting them and keeping all the pickles together afer the Shyam tornado hits them !!..Yes...Shyam's unveiling is drawing closer...
The second interpretation [ remember I had said that the episode was dealing in duality's] ...The ceramic jar is always considered a preserver , a womb , a receptacle that can hold on to its contents for centuries if required ...Taking the the Jar as the Womb..we can infer that Nani will not allow anything to happen to Anjali or the unborn child and will secure them well ...
Khushi heads to the detective agency after cleverly deflecting off MM and here we run a veritable feast of Numbers ..10 kgs of potato, 12 kgs of Onion, missing for 5 days , 20,000 and shud have settled for 18 ..
so what are the numbers here ...10, 12 , 5, 20, 18 ...
REDUX has already spoken much about the number 10 ..I had said that it is a number which holds the chaos and new beginning in its grasp ..It is a number that is a perfection of divine order in other words it signifies that everything is in order and everything is complete...The process of liberating Arnav and begin a new beginning has commenced ..If the number One symbolizes the beginning (& it does), then we can say that the number Ten represents the outcome, result, or achievement of that first step or beginning.Ten also represents fulfillment, attainment, and completion.
The Number 12 ..The Number 12 is one of perfect numbers apart from 10..It is the number which denotes governmental perfection ..Twelve is the product of three times four and the significance of both of these numbers can usually be seen in twelve. Three is divine perfection and usually denotes things from or of God,. Four is the number of the world and the creation, thus we see the perfect governments connection to that which is governed. It is the things of this world,
Next comes 5 ..Khushi says that Arnav has been missing from 5 days ...The Number 5 is that of Divine Grace ..It is a number which says that Gods grace is on the person and here since Khushi is talking about Arnav..Then Gods Grace is on him and nothing will happen to him
Next comes the number 20...A number conveying expectancy , It is a number associated with resurrection ..and Arnav and Shyam will be resurrected into better forms !!
The final number was 18 ..a spiritual number used in judaism ..and is often associated with life and Luck !!
The scene in the detective agency is putting ideas in Khushi's head ...So afterr she had not given a thought at the lack of demand for Ransom or exchange of goods ...her active mind will mull over it and if the CV's are in a rush to close the track [ It does look like it from the way the track is moving] ..Then Khushi will soon realize that something is way off mark in the missing scenario and begin to work out that this is a inside job..
Khushi is searching for her mobile when Shyam walks in with the mobile , he hands it over after playing a quick game of cat and mouse, but the cat is affronted by the questions posed by the mouse and walks away from her
Khushi lost her husband, lost her heart and now she loses her mobile but tide turns and she covers her mobile... Shyam , Shyam is the man who will hand over the very thing she seeks quite inadvertently ..he will maarofy the Khullad on his own feet ..
The first few mins showed that there will be confrontation between Khushi and Shyam..The scene also showed that Shyam KNOWS that there is something more between Khushi and Arnav than meets the eye...Will Khushi spell it out clearly for him in the presence of Arnav is not yet clear to me ...The scene also held the awakening, Awakening of Shyam ...
We got the first hint that the redemption of Shyam will begin , The process started when he was seen to show a concern for Khushi's tears ...Yes, they tried to balance by getting him to grab her hand and ask some hard hitting questions...Questions that will lead to soul searching in Khushi and get her to clear her hazy vision ...
Then what do we see , Shyam deliberately turns his back on Khushi , on the very Golden fleece that he was pursuing ..Why?? ..is it bec he has grown a new found love for Anjali or bec the circumstance makes it so ...I am plumping for the second option .. He will change not bec he wants to but bec he has to... I am Sure Shyam will discover that the papers that he has with him will not get him the wealth & Power he craves ... Neither Arnav nor Khushi will fall into his net again..So what can Shyam do ..As Shyam so succinctly puts it , "Main Purane Kagaz ke saath kaam chala loonga" ..Yes ..He will make do with the will made out in favour of Anjali's name ...The Master Game played by Arnav turns trumps and Arnav's moves are successful as he keeps his sisters paradise intact by defeating a master manipulator in his own game !! ..
That's the reason we see Shyam going away from Khushi, notice the fact that he moves towards Anjali straight after coming out of Khushi's room...Not just that, he is climbing down !! Anjali awaits him , still with her baby ,unaware of Shyam's true intentions ...still not knowing that Shyam who is plainly chaffing at the bits is with her due to her brother's machination and not bec of love !!
The scene also set the tone that Shyam has begun to commit blunders , he has given hints that will get Khushi suspicious...The first hint is when he mockingly says, "Ab Arnavji tode hi aapko phone karnewaalae hain" ...as if he knows very well that Arnav will not be calling Khushi anytime soon... Shyam by not being bothered about the papers has sent out another flare to Khushi, Khushi has picked on this obvious clue ..A rattled Shyam will begin to get shaky and that shud get Khushi on his tail...
The episode ended with Maami again taking a hand, so she will be the one who will rip the mask of Shyam ...interesting days ahead..
The Tracks are being rushed and the events are moving fast...Shyam's revelation which was the long suffering USP n which was supposedly going to go on has now been advanced and we are going to his true Avatar very soon ...But here again the PH can salvage the situation... Shyam's revelation should be traumatic for Anjali and it should have an impact on all lives .. if Anjali comes to know along with ehr family, the impact will be less...The PH can/has to work it in such a way that Shyam's true face is seen by all except Anjali...who slowly and in her own vague way begins to put the pieces together and Shyam's judgement is finally delivered on the day of diwali when Anjali procures the final piece to the puzzle, Bauji's confession !! ... I understand that you are reworking ur tracks, rehashing it ..but do not scrap Shyam's indictment and judgement...If the Arnav and Khushi's love story was one USP..Shyam's punishment was a much awaited and long anticipated one too... Do not cheat the audience out of it and maintain the TV shows dictum that "One shud always pay for one's sins"
