Performance
Sanaya Irani: MIND BLOWING! That was super awesome!
Progress Points
1. Khushi one up on Shyam; NK supporting Khushi
2. Shyam out on the googly!
3. Arnav's whereabouts still unknown
Favorite Scene
Arnav calling Khushi and Khushi hearing it and looking around!
Arnav & Khushi
Arnav Singh Raizada - kidnapped, locked, beaten, caught, down in literal dumps. Did anyone picture him like this when he got off his helicopter in the grounds of Sheesh Mahal?
Arnav Singh Raizada - ruthless, harsh, unbeliever in love and all that is good - sitting in ruins, desperately in love and missing the girl who has become a part of him. Did anyone picture him like this when he broke the beads of this girl's dress and humiliated her?
Arnav Singh Raizada - takes prides in shrouding himself in wraps and masks, veiling his real self from the eyes of everyone - wearing pure white, expressing himself and his love in all honesty to this woman whom he loves with all his being. Did anyone picture him like this when he wore the mask of hatred to shun the one he loved?
Arnav Singh Raizada - insulted her, humiliated her, hurt her, apparently hated her - yet this girl sits alone lost in the memories of when he cared for her, when he showered her with his love. Did anyone think it possible that he'd manage to so own her heart one day that when he calls her name from the depths of darkness, she hears it as though he was right beside her?
Arnav Singh Raizada looks rather defeated now - but one just needs to look at Khushi and what she is doing for him to know what a conqueror he is!
NK & Khushi
NK bless you!
It was sure a relief to see that NK was in confidence when Khushi prepared to step in the worst.
NK made it possible for Khushi to fool Shyam effectively. Shyam would not suspect NK of anything harmful for him, so it is safe for NK to do some sleuthing work in the background as Khushi goes on the frontlines.
He checked out Shyam and Anjali in their room so Khushi could go in and ask for the money to get Shyam suspicious about her.
He was with her when Shyam followed her.
He arranged for the man to take the money from Khushi.
The plan has worked well for now. Khushi has been helped by one of Shyam's blunders when his CDs got mixed up.
Khushi overheard Anjali playing the CDs and knew Mr. Roy from meeting him earlier.
NK knows that Khushi has signed the papers knowing that the lawyer who called her up as Mr. Roy was a fake. NK also knows about the 2 lac deal. NK is also aware of the phone call Arnav made to Khushi.
So, what is the problem?
NK does not know what interest Shyam holds in Khushi. He does not know how Khushi knows how to tackle Shyam? NK does not know that Shyam would attempt to get bolder with Khushi now that she has given him the idea that he wants to get that she would consider him.
NK has grounds to drop support to Khushi because Khushi has not told him all and he hasn't had a chance to believe her in the first fiasco.
I DO wish NK had more to do with this than staying in the background.
Shyam & er... Khushi
Shyam set two tests for Khushi: One, he made sure Arnav called Khushi; and Two, he asked a lawyer to call Khushi as Mr. Roy, Arnav's lawyer with regard to some property Arnav's apparently bought.
Khushi was doubtful of Mr. Roy asking for her signatures and when she was going to meet him, she overheard the train and temple bells playing in Anjali's room. She joins the dots and knows that Shyam planted the call. This makes her wonder if the lawyer who called her was Mr. Roy at all or not - or if Shyam is misleading her.
Shyam's CDs got mixed up. Oh and that means now, there's no clue where Arnav is.
Khushi is amazingly one step ahead of Shyam. Yeah darlin'! you're sure ASR's wife!
She tricked Shyam to come with her and there signed the papers. She also told Shyam about the call Arnav made very carefully - it looked as though she mentioned it in passing.
Shyam states his real feelings that he didn't think Khushi could be so angry. However, Khushi justifies that Arnav ruined her life and whatever is happening with him, is the punishment of what he did. Shyam seems still doubtful of her motives. She shares with him her worries about Arnav being kidnapped and that she does not know what the kidnappers want.
Khushi has given Shyam every reason to trust her:
- She told him of the lawyer and the phone call - passed his tests
- She is showing her anger and justifying it what Arnav did
- She went to the extent of telling him that
- She is not showing any soft corner for Shyam, as against Arnav – She maintains that she hates both Arnav and Shyam; although when says he loves her, she manages to give him an indication that she might consider him. She didn't even flinch when he touched her. This last final bit was the deciding factor for Shyam.
What are the problem areas?
1. Khushi is operating under the belief that Arnav heard what she told him about Shyam being the kidnapper. She is stepping ahead in confidence that when she gets to Arnav, he'd trust her because she already told him.
This is dangerous.
2. Now, that Shyam has ideas about Khushi's hatred for Arnav and possibility of love for himself - he may get bolder with Khushi.
In this scenario, NK may not come in handy. Or if he does, then he may also be confused about Shyam's attitude towards Khushi.
Khushi stated a very valid fear that unless she found where Arnav was, she'd have to tolerate walking with Shyam. Though, she did not complete her sentence and NK did not get the drift, she knows what Shyam might do. He was cheap with her before he found she hated Arnav, and now that he knows he has a chance, he'd use it fully.
3. Shyam is already thinking up plans to do away with Arnav and be the man in Khushi's life. He is intending to fulfill Khushi's so-called desires - money, comfort, and revenge!
Points to be Notes, My lord!
1. Once again, two things boggled my mind and I am keen to see some detail about this hidden aspect of Shyam:
One. The moment Khushi equated Shyam with Arnav, Shyam could not handle it. Though he covered it up with talking about Arnav hating Khushi and him loving her - the initial burst of anger at being called 'like Arnav' was something else.
It reminded me of the time when it was Rakhi, and Anjali called Shyam so that Khushi could tie him a rakhi. Shyam was seriously upset and he beat up an auto-rickshaw driver for no reason. (Though, later he paid the man to get treated.) Just before, he let his rage out at the auto-rickshaw man, there was a mad anger in his eyes, as though suppressed for a long time and the anger was aimed at one name – Arnav Singh Raizada.
Khushi tying him a rakhi triggered that rage, but it has been there for quite some time.
Two. When Shyam is by the poolside thinking about Khushi, he decides that now he will fulfill all of Khushi's desires – money, comfort, and revenge!
Money and comfort sounds very like something he'd provide for Khushi (especially if they are the hard-earned money of his enemy). But revenge!? How? And whose revenge? Khushi's or Shyam's own!?
2. Shyam knows he cannot hide Arnav for very long.
He will need to find a way to get Arnav back to RM - dead or alive.
He was until now planning to kill Arnav and get his money. But now, it is Khushi as well that he has his eyes on.
Looks like there is a tweak in his plan now that it looks like Khushi is interested in him. He still has the proofs against her, but if she really does prove to be as vengeful as she seems, he has a bigger victory over Arnav.
3. Khushi's scam will drive Shyam to greater anger and vengeance.
He might leave no stone unturned to ensure Arnav comes to harm and Khushi loses credibility in his eyes.
How Arnav reacts to proofs Shyam has is something to look for.
As I said before: Arnav already does not trust Shyam - he could believe easily without proofs that Shyam kidnapped him. I don't think, if caught, Shyam will deny being the kidnapper. He'd simply downplay his role and make Khushi seem the mastermind.
This is what he did when Arnav thought he and Khushi had an affair.
4. Khushi's true feelings are coming through. She is no more the girl she used to be. She is now so hurt, so scarred, so much in pain that the sweetness that was her nature is lost somewhere.
No one can return that sweetness to her life except Arnav.
Anjali & er.. Shyam & ..er .. Khushi and .. er .. Seeds of Misunderstanding
Shyam left the door open! Moron! And got the wrong CDs! Super moron!
Anjali sees Shyam and Khushi leave RM together though according to her Khushi left earlier and Shyam was supposed to go to meet a client.
Anjali, usually you are oblivious to the obvious and observer of the subtle. Please observe the subtle and ignore the obvious. Do not make the mistake your Chhote made.
If Anjali feels that Shyam is cheating on her with Khushi - would Arnav stand with her this time? Tough question! Especially for Arnav.
Up the Misunderstanding Mountain
All the elements to a typical misunderstanding build-up are being gathered in.
The main ingredients:
1. Arnav in the dark
2. Khushi out in the open with Shyam
3. Arnav was behind the door - this time it is Anjali
The spices:
1. Arnav and Khushi desperately falling for each other
2. Arnav and Khushi dreaming of one another
3. Arnav and Khushi on telepathic frequency
4. Arnav and Khushi on Teri-Meri
And 'Bang!' goes the happy bubble!
Another MU not only 'seems' to be on the gallop - it is necessary for complete trust to settle in :)
Yep! Khushi has proofs too! However, she's always had them - not only proofs, but witnesses too.
But can Arnav believe that Khushi is a kidnapping mastermind... erm...!!??!! Would it even come to that!?
C'mon, Arnav! You know your Khushi ain't capable of that!
On the Lighter Side
1. Teri Meri: Fandom, I know you loved the sequence and are probably still swinging on the vines in delirium after Arnav's dream.
But ... er.. sorry to rock your boats!! That song is seemingly the harbinger of mighty misunderstandings that plain refuse to leave unless someone hops on one leg for 6 months.
[Well what I mean is mighty tapasya (penance)]
So, all the Jolly Rogers out there - please keep your mind on!
2. Shyam, you moron! Sitting there smiling like an eel! Good! This is exactly how we like to see you – with 'Stupid is me' stamped all over your face!
3. By the way, you might hate me for this - but fact is, I just CAN'T place that voice on Arnav's face! I mean the one screeching 'Teri Meri'. Nice voice 'n all but erm...
Arnav's gotta have a richer and fuller voice backing him up when he attempts to sing.
Kinda like perhaps – Shaan's voice or something...
I can't help feeling that this guy needs a robust singing voice!!
4. Khushi, dear girl, just look at the state of the headings to my segments – Khushi & Arnav, Khushi & NK, Khushi and this one, Khushi and that one!!
No wonder Arnav thought it better to get kidnapped and dream musicals!!
5. BREAKING NEWS!!
Now we know what Arnav dreams about and why Arnav wakes up from his dreams and screams, 'KHUSHI!" every single time!!
The girl has been rampaging his sleeping time and crooning songs till he is going 'happy, happy, joy, joy' and then she runs away or disappears.
Running away is fine, but disappearing... that is spooky!
Who wouldn't wake up screaming!?
Precap
For some reason Khushi was ecstatic about a new boy and his girl coming up at 10:00 p.m. Wonder why!? I mean, 10:00 p.m. is an unearthly hour to visit!!
And Khushi... again it's Khushi & some other guy and his girl!! What is it with you!?
The makers gave you one and only Arnav Singh Raizada, but NO! You have to hop around with everyone else and a half! Even the ones not a part of your ishtory!
On the Side
Spoilers Chmoilers!
Okay, I try to avoid spoilers unless they jump on me and in the past two days two spoilers have.
Though I know Fandom – by now – would have resorted to its usual routine:
Cut, cut
Hash, hash
Chop, chop
Mash, mash
Well, anyhow – here are my first thoughts when I stumbled upon the spoilers.
Spoiler 1: The new Arnav-Khushi picture all over FB, IF and other fan forums. You couldn't avoid it if you wanted to! (Dash it!)
My take on the pic (Please do not expect any seriousness - for obvious reasons!)
Arnav: Darling, finally, I see you.
Khushi: I don't think so, Honey. You've got a long way to go!
(Tongue-in-cheek intended)
Spoiler 2: Arnav-Shyam fight
Arnav, buddy! We love it that you're going to fight the creep, but there are some serious essential pre-requisites vital to your victory.
1. Please, for goodness sake, tape your wife's mouth and hands!
She has an unhealthy habit of deviating you from your sacred call of wiping out the anti-socials, the sick-minded, the perverted, the twisted, and the plain evil from the face of this earth.
2. Your dame's actually gone & promised your sister that she'd protect her mangalsutra. So, she may have a good mind to come and bother you when you're having your heart's desire of beating the daylights outta him.
Oh! And the fact that she stopped you from leaving Shyam near-dead - please do not misconstrue it to mean she cares for the creep.
