Dream - A subconscious sensation

Fabulous episode yet again! I am feeling like I am still in the rain induced delirium anyways time to shake out myself from the after effects of that and get down to writing my take. 😍 yes Fari..it was 😍

NJG army with Mohan '

"Kyunki mai jaanti hoon ke tum meri mummy ko phir se same to same mummy bana saktey ho. Aur mai jaanti hoon ke tumhee meri mummy ke chehrey pe smile laa saktey ho aur Mummy ki wajah se hee tumharey chehrey pe smile aati hai"

Nanhi, my cutie pie, my adorable yummylicious chocolate pudding like dadi maa, where did you get all that worldly wisdom and sensitivity from?? Oh her words took my heart away. 👏 no wonder she is everyone's favourite 😳

There is, right here, for Mohan to witness, that even though he has lost his hopes at the moment as he is all dejected but there are still these true souls, who believe in the power of his love, being strong enough to weather the current rough tide out. Nanhi, Jiji and Guru, the cupids in disguise have taken this mission to heart and with such fervour!! 👏

Nanhi's each and every word was an attempt to rekindle his belief in the power of love and the sense of commitment to keep on giving it his all even if it delivers no immediate results. Nanhi's words used the power of visualization to entice Mohan with the logic that all he needs to concentrate on is not the start but The end, persuading him to picture and focus on, not the journey, but The outcome, which would be her calling him Papa and the happiness that is lying in wait to embrace both Megha and Mohan. Her words created a picture perfect moment, which successfully did revitalize Mohan's spirits and his optimism. 👏 After all nanhi is an angel...her words really instilled in Mohan that lost belief and optimism

Indeed you are lucky to have such a self-confident, honest to goodness army with you Mohan (and Megha) :) Who are always there to lend you a helping hand through all your tumbles along this rocky path you both are treading.

Oh and return of Nanhi's knot, though even her hanky seems to be missing. Anyways the knot appeared on the tree (religious significance which I am unable to elaborate on), still Mohan tying his knot on Nanhi's knot..😍ohh yeah!!

"Abb chahey Duniya idher ki udher ho jaye, Mirchi Madam tou meri hai"

Oh yes, return of Mohan's utter commitment and belief. The sweet smile on Mohan's face in this moment reflect itself that he can already hear the crowds cheering, feel the heat of the lights and know that he would be the winner ;) I was very happy to hear him call her 'Mirchi Madam' again 😳

Indu-Mohan Scene -

Well the scene turned out quite well, considering that I have got severe allergy with any and every thing Indu 😆 but I loved Mohan's first line

"Tum jaanti ho na ke mai Riddhima se shaadi nahi karoon ga"

Indu's clutching Mohan's hands and ahh, her hands fell right then, the bubble of happiness and self-deception that she has been living in, burst right there. I had been so waiting for this confrontation and got it todayso thanks to the team of NBT for retaining this sensitivity of the current track. Thank God for small mercies, Mohan didn't get into a temper this time around and handled her as calmly as he could in the circumstances, and even though I heartily dislike Indu but aww, I felt so touched how Mohan reassured her of his love for her, that he is cognizant of the fact the She as his mother has always stood by him and supported him right uptill now. I hope Indu, that you do open your eyes at sometime in future, open them enough to see that your son's future bliss lies with Megha and to make it complete, he needs you to open your mother's heart and shower him with your blessings. Hopefully she will realize Mohan's feelings and accept Megha and her kids...yes being a mother her concern for her son is definitely acceptable...but insulting Megha is not the solution...she should open her eyes and see Megha's true beauty and her simplicity...she should definitely stop saying that "W" word 🤢. She as a mother should also understand where her son's happiness lies.

Megha's walk in the Rain '

Though most of it was a dream sequence full of multi-layered symbolism (which did render me speechless) but even right before the dream starts, the analogy had already taken off, do say if you felt the same?

Megha coming out and rain starting, making her try to open her umbrella unsuccessfully, eventually running off to take shade from the rain. It so depicted, though metaphorically, all what she has been doing in her life lately. The shower is the boundless sea of her emotions, feelings that are lying in wait for her to explore them in depth. Till now she has been putting up barriers to shield her from directly experiencing the sweetness of love (except in Thursday's confession). She thinks that if she indeed proceeds ahead in this path of love, this involvement would turn too overwhelming, might culminate in unnecessarily nasty consequences (Mohan's estrangement from Indu) so her virtue of bounding out to meet it headfirst is getting suppressed presently. All this creation of shield takes root in the society's (that is Indu's) norms and ideologies, the suffocating cultural restrictions that are imposing on Megha's mind and quelling her freedom to express and explore her emotions the way she wants to. 👏 👏 Very well depicted Fari...the rain symbolized her feelings...and perhaps the umbrella(which is like shield to her from getting absorbed in those feelings) not opening was like a symbol that the time had come for her to accept those feelings...to throw away the shield that was stopping her. But as you have said the society's restrictions are still like a barrier which she has to cross.

Now the dream starts, see all this suffocation has induced her subconscious to dream of the sweet impossible!

The symbolism takes shape, Mohan walking towards her, all drenched in rain, so simple and beautiful. Mohan, who's completely in sync with his own feelings and emotional needs, that nourish him as he lets the rain soak him in joy. He's free of any barriers and shields, as compared to the still parched Megha, because the angry heat of life has all but dried out the love from her life.

👏 👏..Once again you said it all! She is yet to soak herself in the rain.

He walks towards her, Megha's happiness at that point was so mesmerizing. He comes up and opens the umbrella..ahh her smile was like she saw clouds floating towards her, to add color to her sunset sky, the heralding of the rainbow in her life, that is Mohan. 😍 😍 It was beautiful! 😳

So she steps in willingly, under the umbrella and the walk starts, showing Mohan's promise to provide all his support to her always, against all negativity and vulnerability that threatens her. I loved how he pulled the Umbrella to one side in the midst of their walk, and then he pulls it back onto shade them. This clearly showed that their journey together, their future together, at some points, some things from Mohan's side (Indu for instance or other family) will cause hurt to Megha but at the end of it, Mohan will be right there to hold her hand through it all, to lend her his strength and stand by her side and also in front to form a shield, to absorb all her hurts and pains. 👏 Fari...i feel like highlighting the entire analysis 😆..you have said everything so perfectly 👏...their walk in the rain...though it was a dream...it depicted their journey of life together...with each other...always there to help and support each other...at one point when megha also puts her hand on his...it just showed that even she would stand by him in all his difficult times...they would be together at all times...be it in their joy or the hurdles of life they would face.

Let me mention one thing here ' Mohan and Megha, you are one of the loveliest couple I have ever come across, you lend such beauty and ethereality to such simple scenes, your subtle chemistry and profoundly deep conversations through your eyes, take all already beautiful scenes to altogether some other levels of awesomeness. 😍 😍This scene is an example of just that..love you two!

And then the dream run ends, Manav jumps in the middle with his big boring chequered Umbrella and whisks her away, unhappy and still pinning. He was the sharp object which burst the sweet balloon of Megha's dream

Aww Mohan, but you saw Megha turning back to look at you, 😍 😳 That was soo cute...her turning back sort of reminded me of DDLJ...the 'palat palat palat' scene 😆 😳

you did, didn't you? Loved that too!

Precap ' So that means, Megha reached office all dry, prim and proper but Mohan had to go back and change his soaked clothes??😆 Maybe its the next day...we must wait and watch 😊

Mohan's wearing a different shirt naa..Anyways, Mohan turning Megha to face her reflection and the fact the she's the only one destined for him was sweet but the MS comes again :O !!! Return of the MS!!...hope they dont start the mantras in the BG 😆 😆

and how exactly it coincided with Megha's whole face in it's encompassing loop in the glass reflection..oh, weird feeling inside me..leaving to dissect it till tomorrow.

What a beautiful title fariha Di.. Let me read the post.. Comment reserved for now.. :) Edit : Fariha Di, I was just watching the episode now, and was reading ur analysis along, it was an awesome experience to read this post while watching the episode live.. It was a really heartwarming episode for me both in terms of MN scene and the dreamy MM sequence.. How endearing Nanhi is, for me, all dialogues which Nanhi told were very emotional and touching.. Hmm so good they were.. And happy to know that NGJ were able to bring back a determined Majnu mohan.. I hate it when Indu uses the 'W' word.. And I loved the way Mohan bhaiya handled his mother today in a calm way, very good!! Jiji's scene where she made saroj and papaji search for earrings and Nanhi hurrying up Megha and sending her to office were all funny and good.. :D Then comes the beautiful soul-stirring sequence, MM, the umbrella and rain walk.. It really transformed me into a dreamland.. Kunal bhaiya performed well, and akansha was stunning, she was so beautiful and her smile was mesmerizing.. And I love the symbolism u mentioned here Di.. It was apt.. Till now, I have a good regard for Dr.Manav, but somehow when he came in between MM, spoiling the dream-becomes-real incident, I disliked him.. I felt very bad at that time for Mohan bhaiya.. I haven't seen the precap, but I think Mohan bhaiya was fully drenched in water, in the episode, so he had to change Di, but Megha did not get wet at all.. Well, lovely post Di, enjoyed reading it, it was a pleasure and thanks for the PM.. :)
