When Love Flies, Loneliness Strikes!

Hi everyone,

Weekend's here, and status quo remains...Bani continues to be unrelenting in her refusal to forgive and forget....And Jai continues to agonize over the the brutal twist fate has brought into his life...And all of us continue to despair over the hopelessly muddled relationship between the two...😭

Come to think of this, this week has not been particularly eventful...This ws to be expected of course after the surfeit of drama in the preceding episodes...Three marriages, bomb blasts, skeletons tumbling out from the past, pregnancy, and Jai's death fiasco...Too much was happening in a very short span of time...In contrast, this week, things have moved at a more measured pace, leaving the viewers time to regain their breath...Its not been wholly without entertainment value though, and I for one would have enjoyed the calmer tempo if only I didnt have to see Jai's desperation every single episode...😭...Ram, cant you have one bad acting day???...Do you have to set new standards every single day, and then leave me precariously on the edge over Jai each night???

So today the episode started with yet another Bani self-confession about the dilemma she's facing...Whether to choose the unsavoury past which destroyed her family life, or whether to opt for the blissful present and future that she may have with the man she loves so much....I suppose it was well done...I dont know...Perhaps my sensitivity quotient with respect to Bani has really plunged down...I dont know if its the acting, the scene conceptualisation or simply that I refuse to see beyond my empathy for Jai....Dont think its the last though...Earlier, I never failed to relate and feel for Bani every single day....It was to Jai's credit tht he managed to infuriate me and make me love him despite everything...But Bani never lost my support...

Makes me wonder whats wrong now...Why I have to keep reminding myself that after all she's justified??...May be its the repetitive dialogues...She's not really getting the best dialogues these days...May be its just that the creatives are not getting a hold of the character...As I said before, I just dont know...😕

Anyhow, Bani Walia, looking very much like Bani Dixit of yore is back to job-hunting....Goes to be interviewed by some pretty strange looking blokes who offer her a huge sum of money for giving inside secrets about the Walia empire...One thought...how did they know that she has separated from Jai???...its just been a couple of days no????😕

Expectedly she turned down the proposal rather disdainfully...and then proceeded to give a looong lecture about how her private life was her own...I am happy she made it clear that she would never break her husband's trust...But, and I suppose I am just being too fussy here..she was speaking too much...I mean Bani's silence has been so much her strenght...She has managed to so effectively quell everyone with just a couple of lines, that it seemed odd to see her moralising two complete strangers....

So Jai's back to drinking like a fish...He never needed an excuse in any case😆...Ranveer is summoned, and what followed was JW at his classic best....Just one deadly stare, a few clipped sentences,and the matter was settled...No lecture, no overt rage....Just a cool fury and total authority...Fabulous👏

And then the best scene of the day...An introspective Jai by the window, thinking about his destiny and life...the strains of Aadat floating in teh background..Away from the gaze of the world, the true Jai Walia emerges....lonely, lost, beaten by the blows fate had handed him...As a man who is in the middle years of his life, he brought out perfectly the biggest fear facing him...Loneliness...!!!

"Log akele aate hain aur akele jaate hain, par kitna mushkil hai ise jeena"...So true...That one is all alone is what everyone knows...But that still doesnt stop us from frantically hoping for companionship and love in our lives...Someone who will steady us in times of trial, give us a reasonto live...to go on...Jai found it once...He's experienced the warmth and happiness it brought him...How can he let it go now???...

It was beautiful to see him spelling out his changing emotions for Bani...Sometimes I feel he never actually recovered from the fact that he found himself married to her...Its so hard for anyone who is used to getting one's own way finding ones' plans thwarted by destiny...Even if the alternative which is handed out is far far better...

Jai spent so much time pushing away Bani from him, avoiding any emotional entanglement with her, reminding himself of the real state of their relationship, that its almost been a shock to him to realise how close she came to him in any case...Unknowingly she became his reason for living, and then handed him his most precious gift...the child...How cruel can life be to take it all away from him in one go???....Wonderful dialogues, great acting, and another heart tugging moment to round off the week!!!...Lets see what the next week has in store for us...Till then we can all recover our emotion sapped nerves😳...

See you all

love

👏 👏 Rupy, nicely put, thanks. 👏

Thanx for the detailed analysis!!
👏

That was a very crisp synopsis and very aptly worded comments.Enjoyed ur post more than I did watching the episode./CAT

Thanks guys 😃....Always wait for feedback
Rupy

Rupy, great analysis and i do agree that KS was on a medium tempo this week. Good for once, because the serial is now at a crucial juncture and its very important to spell out each emotion correctly. 😛

But, I agree that the Creatives are not putting much thought in Bani's character and dialogues. Its always that she has to do with mediocre dialogues while the best ones always goes to JW. No, i dont mind at all, but Jai and Bani are both very special characters to all of us, so at least equal stress should be put in developing both their characters (thats my idea of equality 😆 ).
i guess the creatives have become more confident about JW as they have come to knwo of us Despos, 😆 😆 😆 but yes, they should definitely do more with Bani now and not make her sit and cry throughout.
And i dont Bani to be ashamed of her love for Jai ever. its one of the most precious gift that God has bestowed on her and she should not view it as a source of shame. i know its difficult but i believe that my Honeybun has enough mental strength to stand up to the challenge. 😛

And yes, i would not want to be in Ranveer's shoes yesterday. He actually did not have any chance yesterday 😆 and now he will be desperate to save his face. 😡

Nice analysis, keep them coming please

Very well written Rupy!

Although I havent seen the episode yet, judging from the updates, and all analyses, I agree with what you wrote up there. Bani has always been a woman of few words, yet effective. It seems odd and unnecessary to me when such characters have too much to speak...especially with complete strangers...

In the episode where Bani welcomes Jai for his wedding with Pia (😆 it seems funny now that we think about it! ) Jai asks her why she took the pains to arrange for such a lavish wedding, and again Bani goes off....with words and words..... Not that she wasn't right, but hello, Bani you were making the groom stand at the door with the entire barat behind him, and giving him an analysis instead of a simple answer!

And Ranveer in the previous episode! I didnt mind him having more screen time than usual, infact I enjoyed it, but his dialogues/sentences were toooooo long!

Just my thoughts...😆

Jojo

👏 👏 👏 very well said 👏 👏 👏
We will wait to see Jai and Bani together in comming week. I hope to see some good scence between Jai and Bani.But i am really afriad of Ekta opposite way of thinking 😳

i wish if the titles read like "when love fills, loneliness strikes.." love will make us fly, float, will take us from our foot to another world... it will never fly away the more u try to make it fly away from u the more it stikes back...

but i believe that my Honeybun has enough mental strength to stand up to the challenge. 😛

😆😆...Sangeeta, ur client neednt worry with u by her side...U dont miss a chance😆...I dont envy you though...U'll have a tough time in the coming week if Bani continues in the same vein...Lots of work coming for you....😳...

take care...have a good weekend

love
