Hola everyone 🤗

What to say!? Again a Brilliant episode!! All my posts these days are appreciative only if nothing else - because I am in awe of every scene - every dialogue and every other small things. Today was a brilliant episode because the episode was all about feeding the sleepy tiger to wake up and go for the kill. Guess who am I talking about!? - Yes you heard it right - the episode was to wake up Arnav Singh Raizada!!So got fooled by the silence today!?

No dialogues - no anger nothing right!? WHY!?? That was because before a lion makes his move - he lets his prey do everything possible to save himself. Today Shyam was given that chance. Arnav Singh Raizada did not interfere today - did not say anything - because he is waiting for the right moment to attack - and attack when Shyam will not know what hit him! 😳

Remember what Arnav asked Khushi yesterday!?

"Khushi are you sure... kahin tumhe koi... sabke saamne saabit karne keliye proof hai tumhare paas!?"

Arnav trusts Khushi - but he was right when he said yesterday that did Khushi have anything to fall back on when she told him about Shyam Manohar Jha. He could not believe it the first instant but he trusted her and he wanted to be sure that she was sure because he knew what was to happen. Arnav knows his families bent towards Shyam - he was also one of those who had trusted him and believed in him - he knew that nothing Khushi would say would change the mind of the family and most importantly Anjali if there was no tangible proof. Khushi's reaction that time was a giveaway that there was no proof. Yet when Khushi comes in - notice the scared look on her face while when Arnav walks in he walks in quite comfortably - testing. He glares at Shyam all the while because he had accepted the truth.

It so happens that even though Khushi knew everything and had confessed everything to Arnav - and maybe even mentioned about the fact that she has no proof yet even not once Arnav did not once try and stop her - He did not stop her - he just stood there silently looking on and talking to Khushi through his eyes.

WHY!?

Because he cannot support Khushi because he himself does not have anything to fall back on. Gauge his reactions - he is carefully noticing every reaction and giving a go ahead to Khushi. Not standing by her but standing there for her. Khushi once made a mistake - she failed to tell the truth when the time was right. Today she was acting stupid knowing that she did not have any proof - WHY!?

What did we feel was out of the place yesterday!? It was Arnav walking in 5 minutes after Khushi walked in. WHY!? Yesterday we saw that it was Arnav who had to pick up Khushi and help her walk because Khushi was hurt in the leg and yet he let her go in when they could actually have entered RM together and the reactions would still be the same. Yet they did not. There was something amiss there. Arnav was silent - and all what spoke yesterday and today was his eyes and his face. He did not need a dialogue to give away what is happening.

Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada, The woman who never spoke up when the time was right - but today she did - because she was part of a plan. She knew she had no proof, no mobile, no papers - nothing and yet she did not deter - she fought to prove her point and tried everything that could work. She knew it was going to be difficult to convince Anjali the most and that is why she said sorry to her before she could reveal about the kidnapper. The first time she did not tell the truth - she could have proved her point and yet she did not. Today she did not have any proof and yet she did confess. She made Anjali remember about the blood thing, she made everyone know about the fact that she has been in his room, she made sure that everyone hung on to every word and cross questioned her. While Arnav maintained his cool and stood by his sister Anjali - holding her tightly against Shyam and his roving eye caught on every expression of Shyam Manohar Jha - be it Shyam wiping the sweat of his face off - while he kept trying to convince Anjali and Anjali alone or be it while he tried his best to question the fact that what was Khushi doing in his and her room.

To cover up one lie - you have to say another 100 lies but the Truth always comes out no matter what.

Whatever Khushi came up with today - Arnav's eyes were fixed on every reaction of every family member. He saw Anjali break down, he saw Mami give Khushi a benefit of doubt and he saw Nani ask for a reason and that is why he had asked Khushi if she had proof. But his reaction was clear when Khushi told the family that Shyam did it for the property and Shyam lied.

"Jhooth hai ye...Bakwaas hai ye...Rani sabha hum aisa kabhi karne ka soch bhi nahi sakte"

Notice Arnav's expression here ; He was hearing the story of saving him for the first time - there were expressions of shock - belief and connecting dots in the whole episode - but this one place - he rolled his eyes and looked down in frustration because he caught on Shyam's lie and him using Anjali as a bait.

Today with everything Khushi said - she had no proof and yet she continued telling her part of the story and every time she was stopped by either Anjali or Shyam and no one else. And then finally came the savior - NK!

Looking at Khushi and his "Nanav" - NK smiled in happiness and immediately went off to hug his brother and Khushi ji. He congratulated Khushi in front of everyone that she had finally managed to save Arnav after so many hurdles. She however tells him to tell the truth because he is the only one who is aware of everything.

After a lot of thought - NK confesses to everything and Shyam again uses his manipulation power to convince everyone and he keeps harping about proof which neither has as of now. When NK says ;

"Please jeeju aap Khushi ji ko accuse na karein...aap nahi jaante unhe aapki wajah se kitna tolerate karna pada hai"

Shyam again retaliates but there is a fleeting moment when it is shown that he is angry as he glares at Shyam. When Khushi looks at Arnav - Arnav looks at her with a bit irritation. Then NK throws the bomb and importantly about his room and Shyam is taken aback and so is everyone.

Precap : I generally don't judge the precap but today I did because Arnav's expression when Shyam questions him about his presence - is a giveaway that who is playing a game here.

Lucky ji : U asked me why I liked Arnav today - True the episode did belong to Khushi, NK and Shyaam but it was Arnav who was playing them. However as actors it belonged to Abhaas, Sanaya and Daljeet and there is no doubt about that.😳

But as character - it was Arnav -He was the anchor who was silently taking this confrontation ship forward with his silence - preparing for the attack. He could not react because he is not aware of the whole thing himself - he was himself hearing it for the first time. Yet he knew that Khushi did not have any proof against Shyam and she would fall back. He did not react and that gave a way to Shyam to even question Arnav.

Shyam spoke 100 lies today to defend himself - the more he lies - the more he will be caught in his own web of deceit and that is what will plant the complete seed of doubt. He let Shyam believe that Khushi was alone - and none could believe in her words till that time comes when the GH track comes up and Shyam is caught. Because then it will be Arnav's words AGAINST Shyam's. That one truth is his trump card and he could play only on that for he was a witness. He ran the game from the time when he heard that Shyam was the kidnapper but he could not do anything today because it is important for Shyam to make a fall himself. Kehte hai na :

"Jab loha garam hota hai tab vaar karna chahiye"

aka "Strike when the iron is HOT"

Khushi and NK did the preparation for that so that Arnav could strike when it was actually required. And that will happen NOW. More so - now he knows who to target and how - Mami will be the first one who will shift to Arnav's side, then the rest while Shyam keeps hiding behind Anjali and manipulating her.

Coming to the actors 😉

Barun Sobti : I will agree here at the some points your expressions were confusing but an ardent Arnav pankha like me - could understand the rest. I wish you had been given dialogues though - as a layman you did seem lame at times standing there alone.😛

Sanaya Irani : Fabulous girl!! I loved you today like hell! Bang on Expressions!!👏 👏

Abhaas Mehta : Man! Take a bow! I was convinced that you did not kidnap Shyam and Khushi was indeed misunderstanding you. You were that brilliant.👏 👏 👏

Daljeet Bhanot : Liked your expressions today! The expression of believing and not believing. AWESOME!👏

Karan Godwani : loved you as usual! Loved the Lie lie part of your dialogue in the end.⭐️

Akash : Thank god you got a dialogue! I immediately realized that finally you were able to say something. 👏

Utkarsha Naik : You breathe life into Mami's character. Have been loving you everyday now these days.👏

A good episode. Actually the next three will be the deciding factor on how the story progresses. Undoubtedly I am looking forward to it.

LOVE and Light


Anna 😊

[Updated]

Liar Lawyer... Pants on Fire !!!

Friday: Suspense

Monday: Action

Tuesday: Romance

Wednesday: High Voltage Drama

Thursday: Bring it on darlings... we are waiting with baited breath !!!

Gul Khan... Yeh tumne kya kar diya humaare saath... Ek TV show ke saath apne Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon?

High Voltage Drama... The Heart Beat, The Blood Pressure climbed up and down...

Today my thoughts go out for Anjali... in this game of cat and mouse, the poor girl is caught in a whirlpool ! Shock after another shock for her today...

• Her day started with Maami telling her of an alleged affair between her pati parmeshwar and her brother ki dulhan;
  
• Then that husband has supposedly met with an accident..
  
• She is just getting over that, when her brother ki dulhan comes home covered in mud and all..
  
• Suspicions about her whereabouts were just about to seep in, when lo and behold her most beloved brother comes home looking like hell !
  
• If that was not enough, she learnt that from the brother ki dulhan that parmeshwar was going to kill the beloved brother for property !

What an emotional journey for the poor female... It reminded me of the same journey of emotions that Arnav went through on the day he married Khushi - Di's Accident, Her Kameena Pati, Khushi's betrayal, Di's pregnancy... all in one day... and look how he turned everything to his advantage !

As I have said before... Like Brother, Like Sister... She will too rise above this lowest point in her life and twist it to her advantage... all we have to do is wait and watch ! 😊

Shyam Manohar Jha: We finally got to see the lawyer in you today ! Daleel pe Daleel... You had a counter argument for each of Khushi's argument. You want to see the proof in everything, when according to you, she doesn't have any proof. Twisting Khushi's words to your advantage... but for how long... Shyam ji, aapke paap ka gharha aaj bhar gaya lagta hai ! You misjudged your opponent big time... she is no more the innocent Khushi Kumari Gupta, she is now Khushi Arnav Singh Raizada and she has her Ram and her Lakshman by her side now !

Maami: The truth seeker. She wants to know the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. She is happy now that Arnav is back home, everything will be finally out in the open. She knows partial truth... She knows Arnav was kidnapped; she has also witnessed first hand Khushi's love for Arnav and her desperation for finding him. But, then she saw something, which her heart was not ready to believe, but her mind alerted her... She wants Khushi to speak out the truth... but then remembers her and Shyam's betrayal to her family... so she tells her to shut up and asks Arnav to tell everyone the truth... But as Khushi opens the Pandora's box... she is bound to think... and think hard she does. The mind of Devil's advocate is at work again !

NK: The perfect Lakshman to this jodi of Ram and Sita ! He knows what he saw, he doesn't want to embarrass Khushi in front of the whole family, and therefore is trying to warn Shyam off to keep his mouth shut... but Shyam doesn't know how much NK knows. NK is the suspense element for Shyam... and Khushi's trump card.

Payal: Finally you spoke up girl... Good to see the protective sister back in you, but then... did you wait and think about what will Akash do when he finds out that you knew Shyam's ugly truth and you didn't say a word to him? The first words of Akash to Maami today were... Aapko sab sach pata tha, aur aapne humein nahi bataya? Or his next dialog... Sach sirf Khushiji ko hi kyun pata tha?? Only when Arnav calmed him down, did he stop the questioning !!! (Hint for the future track)

Khushi Arnav Singh Raizada: She has finally opened the Pandora's box.. before she did, she went to Di, held her hands and apologized because she knew whatever she was going to reveal is going to hurt her. Not for a moment she left Di's side. It is Anjali, who she wants to prove her innocence to. She is confident, despite the fact that she doesn't have any physical proof at the moment, but she knows she has the biggest power behind her... the truth. And the truth shall set her free.

Arnav Singh Raizada: He is listening to everything... every argument, counter argument. Why is he so quiet when such a heated argument is happening around him? Why not say anything? Because the tiger is waiting... for the right moment to pounce on his prey ! It's his game and they are all playing it to his tunes ! We have not been shown the whole revelation of Shyam's truth in front of Arnav by Khushi. They came together to RM, he asked her if she can prove it in front of the family and then Khushi enters... why didn't they enter together !?! It's a trap for Shyam... jo apne pair pe kulhaadi bhi dekh ke maarega.

Sanaya, Utkarsha, Karan, Daljeet (to an extent)... did a wonderful job today... But Abhaas stole the show for me ! Once again, he proved why we all love to hate Shyam ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dialogs and Background Music... once again brilliant ! 👏👏

Hi folks!!

Since I didn't write much yesterday about the Khushi-Shyam-Arnav entrance in yesterday's Redux, shall devote some time to that scene, and to today's episode together. Scroll a bit down if you would like to skip the part on Tuesday's entrance scene.

Yesterday we saw a thoroughly battered Arnav and Khushi return to Shaantivan (RM - Raizada Mansion). Before entering Khushi stops Arnav saying she has something important to tell him, he is more concerned about her condition and stops her from saying anything, but Khushi persists and tells him the name of the person behind his kidnap - Shyam. Arnav stands shocked and asks if she has proof to validate this statement in front of the family.

I have had time to revisit the whole scene, and what caught my eye was Arnav's reactions. When Khushi asks him, "Aapko jaanna nahi hai ki aap ko kidnap kisne karvaaya?" He stiffens momentarily, his hand halts in mid-air as he goes to ring the doorbell, and it seems like he collects himself before turning around to face her. She says Shyam's name and a look of incredulity passes through his features, almost taken aback by the name. He further asks, "Are you sure, kahi tumhe koi galat..." She stresses that she hasn't made any mistake in this fact, and he asks her if she has any proof for the 'family'. This was as clear as water - he didn't ask for proof for himself, he asked her for proof so that the family can be handled.

Now there are two things that can be inferred from this scene:

One: Arnav believes her, trusts her and has faith in her, so much so that he doesn't require any proof to convince him that she is saying the truth, so much so that he takes her word for it right then and there, and that he is certain that she is right about Shyam. ASR as always asks for proof to substantiate her statements so that she is not left vulnerable to the others in the house.

Two: Arnav already knows that Shyam is the kidnapper, is struck that Khushi knows it is Shyam, and asks if she has proof about it. Going back a bit to their phone conversation when he was held captive she had told him that she knew who his kidnapper was, but he probably didn't catch Shyam's name then, he deflected her at that time, almost like he already knew who his kidnapper was. The fact remains that he knew she knew who was behind it all, and today when she laid it down in front of him he is convinced that he was right all along, all he needs is the proof to back up her statement to protect herself from Shyam's lethal accusations against her, and to convince the other family members about Shyam's real face.

Khushi clears out everything to Arnav. She has learned from her past mistakes, that keeping important secrets doesn't always mean well for others. Some truths have to be told no matter how ridiculous or unbelievable they may sound. Before stepping in to their home, she tells him about Shyam being the kidnapper; she speaks the truth behind all that has happened. This scene to me conveyed a sense of a bride about to get married and who starts her new life with her husband on a base of truth, honesty and trust. Loved the little significance behind this scene!

Now for the main part of this post. I had already written about the placements, reactions of the family members after ASR enters in my post yesterday, so won't be going into that. Jumping straight into today's episode, may link some scenes from Tuesday for a smooth flow.

Khushi and Arnav walked in separately, first Khushi and a few minutes later ASR. If you watch closely, ASR moves toward Anjali but Maamiji rushes and hugs him, diverting him from Anjali. Everyone leaves Shyam alone with his wounds, while Payal stays by Khushi's side. Maamiji blows open the truth about Arnav being kidnapped which leads to a near fainting spell for Naani (3 of her children come walking in injured topped with this kidnapping news is quite a weight!) while Anjali immediately launches in her protective, worried, anxious sister mode.

Amidst all this hullabaloo is ASR who doesn't say a word, except for trying to calm down a hysterical Anjali. The man over whom all the whole fuss is about stands aloof from the bullets being shot from all directions. Words are being thrown around, accusations, defending volleys, anger, fury, doubts - every actions carry these elements and somehow they all soar over him and center around the rest of the family members surrounding him.

It's almost like he's invisible, untouched by all that is happening, enclosed from the circus whose main theme is - him! ASR is very much like a ring-master in the shadows - watching the clowns, jokers, lions, tigers and other assorted creatures prancing around dangerously as he holds the whip in his hand, ready to strike the negligent, over-confident, cornered, unruly, unaware creature when that creature shows his true colours and disrupts the theme of the circus.

In all this time, ASR retains a straight face for the others. The only time emotions reflect in his eyes are when he looks at Khushi - they convey their plan, their messages through their eyes - visual communication at its best!

What was really good about today's episode was that Khushi-Arnav do not have a shred of proof right now to nail Shyam down firmly. The only proof right now is Khushi's truth, and Shyam's lies. Truth vs. lies!

Khushi's truth + Shyam's Lies = Proof

ASR's shaatir mind has taken into account Khushi's genuineness and her truth to pit against Shyam's deceit and lies to give them the solid, resolute, vital, unchallenged PROOF of Shyam's real character!

Khushi has laid down every bit of truth that led up to Shyam kidnapping Arnav. Every piece of work, every little detail of the steps she took, every proof she found and lost - she admitted them in front of everyone. She did not hide anything this time. Her honesty, purity, innocence and genuineness have always been her strengths and the rest of RM members know this and relate to her. Each one in Shaantivan (RM) know that Khushi is hopeless at lying, they know that Khushi is an honest, truthful person. Khushi's truth about Shyam (part of it) has been put forward for everyone. Khushi's truth is her biggest proof.

Shyam refutes all accusations against him from Khushi repeatedly. During the whole time he stood next to the one person who he knew would support him - Anjali/Rani Sahiba. When he was unable to counter-argue Khushi's claims against him, he would turn to his Rani-Sahiba to help him squirm out. Also, each time he couldn't provide a satisfactory answer to Khushi he resorted to calling her 'Khushi' instead of 'Khushiji'. When he could point his finger at her, and question her audacity to spy on him he would use 'Khushiji'. It was easy to see the mask of honey-dipped Shyam slip off when cornered. Shyam's continous lies will make him unmask himself in front of the other thereby laying his real false character, his lies will be the concrete proof against himself.

Each time he slipped, each time he felt threatened, each time he felt the noose getting tighter, each time he sensed the net closing in on him - his eyes, face, gestures, and voice betrayed him -and this was all noted by the silent, sharp-minded, keen observer Ring-Master Mr. Arnav Singh Raizada.

We all are familiar with the line that when you spin your web of lies, you sometimes get entangled in them. Shyam never expected Khushi to lay out the truth of his character in front of everyone. (And this is only the truth about the kidnapping, Payal will probably bring about the truth of his paying guest days at Gupta House and his cheating nature). Coming back to the point, Shyam is being hit by arrows from all sides all of a sudden. If he was given enough time, or if he knew he would be under a volley of attacks from Khushi, NK and tomorrow Payal, he would have undoubtedly prepared himself for it, and would have come up with some story to save him from the attacks.

However, Khushi's sudden launch as a ferocious tigress has left him shocked, astounded, stunned and surprised. The fact that she is revealing all her cards one after the other is confusing him - some of the accusations he can tackle, but others will surely drive him into a ditch. He covers up the trampling of his honey character by employing his famous device of acting like a pure person.

His lies are brought to the forefront to deal with Khushi. But before he can recuperate from the dangerous situation he is in, NK comes forward and speaks against him, he is further flummoxed as he had no idea that NK was keeping a watch over him! His anger, fury and irritation increases. He can hear deaths knell ringing close by... afraid that his cover will be blown, scared that he might lose everything, annoyed by Khushi's and NK's truthful voices against him, shaken by the number of proofs and actions they had taken to pin him down, and utterly tangled in his lies jumbling all over - Shyam is right now at the heights of crumbling down under the weight of his deceitful words and actions. One dynamite blast of truth will rumble him, cause him to contradict himself and will lead to his infinite storeyed building of lies to shatter, crumble and meet dust - right where it belongs.

ASR is lying low right now, observing closely the exchanges, keenly watching the reactions of everyone, but his main focus on Shyam Manohar Jha. ASR always takes a move when he is absolutely sure, when he has seen the situation from all angles, when everything has a link to the other, when each bits of jigsaw fall into place, when he finally has in his hands the vital object that can lead him to strike at the opportune moment with deadly precision and win against all odds ' only because he took all odds under consideration and capitalized on them with his strengths!

Shyam has been attacked by Khushi, NK, and tomorrow Payal. Maami will soon join this line of archers against him. Maami with her practical mind, will catch on to one of Shyam's lies, she will link it up to an event in the past, will join the dots and will come out triumphant with Shyam's true character. (Depending on what Payal says. Payal may tell about Shyam as a paying guest, and Maami with her investigation will find out that this is indeed true (The rest of the RM members, excluding ASR, may not believe Payal at first.)

ASR will launch his accurate, clever, precise attack once Shyam slips up in his strings of lies. Once ASR spots the discrepancy in Shyam's words and actions, he will break out of that self-confined quiet, observant shell and will strike Shyam when Shyam is at his weakest moment in the confusion of lies spun by himself.

Arnav leaves his wife Khushi alone to tackle the questions: The cunning ASR at work. A move to way lay Shyam into thinking that Khushi and Arnav are not on the same page. Shyam knows that Khushi loves Arnav, but he is unaware that Arnav loves Khushi at this stage. Arnav's non-involvement while Khushi attacks Shyam is to lead Shyam into the false security that he can overturn the tables on Khushi and evoke Arnav's ire against her.

Khushi first apologizing to Anjali: Khushi knew how tough this was going to be for Anjali. The truth about Shyam that she should have told Anjali the day Anjali's mangalsutra fell off will now soon be out. Khushi has learned this lesson well now, that saving someone from the bitter truth doesn't always ensure happiness and smooth times. She clasps Anjali's hand - the woman who was like an elder sister to her, their bond that started on the 'right' foot, a relationship she adores and cherishes - today, for everyone's sake the truth had to be told, and Anjali would be the one who would need the most support in it.

Anjali to Khushi "bina soche samjhe aisa kuch mat bloliye, shayad aap khud nahin jaanti hai ki aap kya bol rahi hai": Okay this one had me spooked because again I felt that Anjali knows more than what we think she doesn't know. I always keep feeling that Anjali does know about Shyam. And like I said before, she is actually a very strong person deep inside.This line of hers was almost like a cautionary warning, I don't know about the rest of you but it was as if she was requesting Khushi to stay away from danger (Shyam). There was a certain look of fear in her eyes, almost like fearing for Khushi. Maybe I'm over-imaginative, but that's how it seemed to me.

Arnav rolls his eyes when Shyam denies creating a fake will: He has caught on to one of Shyam's lies. He probably suspected that Shyam could possibly do something like this which was why he had created another Will that would not allow Shyam to lay hands on the Raizada property. Shyam's "Yeh sab jhooth hai" only gives an impetus to ASR to see through Shyam's dishonesty.

NK "Mera mooh mat khulvaiyye.": Seems like NK, unlike Maamiji, isn't willing to scar Khushi's character in front of everyone. Nor is he inclined to hurt Anjali with Shyam's truth of desiring Khushi. But, this statement of his seems to suggest that a time will come when NK will have to come forth with this facet of Shyam's to save Khushi from Anjali's distrust. As far as I know NK, he will not stand anyone casting aspersions on Khushi's character. He will stand up for her when it is required.

Edited to add: I loved that the whole family was one side of the room and Shyam was left all alone on the other side of the room! Signs of the times to come, Shyam will be cast out of the family in the future.

Alos, I liked the way Shyam stood quiet all along while Khushi was talking about Arnav's kidnapping and he spoke up only after she openly accused him. That was the last time he kept his wits about him, but once Khushi launched her attack, he started losing track of tackling the accusations on him.

Besides that, I loved NK coming into the frame with his cheerful Nannav and Khushiji call! Plus, the hug between NK and ASR was so adorable... ASR actually patted NK on his back in the hug! I actually crossed my arms for a self hug for NK. He was too cute out there. ☺️

Barun Sobti: Magical eyes, awesome visual communication, Sanaya Irani: Excellent today, lovely expressions and movements, Abhaas Mehta: You are an outstanding actor (as a villain), Utkarsha Naik: I always feel like calling you Maamiji only, that's how good you are in this role!, Karan Goddwani: I just wish that they could make NK a permanent character in this show, you bring so much light and life in your role, love you!, Daljeet Bhanot: Good performance, waiting to see you enact new dimensions to Anjali, and Akshay Dogra: I wish you had more lines... waiting for you to erupt in anger what with your mother not telling you about the kidnap, and your wife not being honest about Shyam from the start.

👏 to Jayashree T and Deepali Pansare!! Waiting eagerly for Deepali to speak up... takes me back to the guest house incident!

CV's: I'm loving the pace, and can't wait for the next episode! Keep the momentum going, capitalize on the supporting actors, and keep surprising us (in a good way)! Good job! 👍🏼

Cheers,

Nia 😊

Oh what a tangled web we weave,

When first we practice to deceive!

Sir Walter Scot

Shyam Manohar Jha ' while studying law hope you had brushed up on your literature & stumbled upon this quote of Sir Walter Scot.. .you would probably be in a better spot today.

________________________________________________________________

Note to Gul Khan:

Great work Gul ' yesterday was a lovely super romantic episode .. & today we got the intense drama 'I wrote a Thank you to you & Nissar yesterday for the Thought that you got out behind the 10 minute long romantic film you shot yesterday '& from today .. the meaning of the episode will slowly start to unravel. May I say Kudos darling once again ..U have us hooked ..line & sinker ..

Love,

IPK Fan

_________________________________________________________________

I was totally in a trance yesterday so I just penned some random thots that came to my mind yesterday .. I am sure I was not lucid enough ' Yesterday .. I wrote that I was flummoxed with the Brilliance in THOT behind the whole romantic saga we saw ... let me tell you why today'

Firstly .. why did you guys think that showing Khushi as DEAD was at all important yesterday .. ASR already loved her ' so it was not to make him realize his love for her '. He has already confessed his love to her .. so it was not to confess either ' It was a superb message wrapped .. in the most poignant of packages .. we all spoke about the temple we saw in the backdrop .. Now the relevance of the Temple shot .. not once but twice in the scene '

The whole scene was to show the DIVINE INTERVENTION in the love between Arnav & Khushi .. & yes yesterday Khushi's DM .. gave a very simple message to ASR '

Respect & Cherish what you have ' or I can take it away from you in a Blink of an eye '

Hence when he lifted her in his arms brought her close to his heart .. put her hand in his heart .. in a cherishing gesture ..DM returned his love to him '. This is the story of 2 star crossed lovers ' who are joined by Divine Intervention ' & no one can break this bond ' not even the pair in love '..So once again guys .. Shyam Manohar Jha kya cheez hai

Why this message .. because in the next couple of days ..ASR & Khushi will face the toughest battle of their lives ' they will fight their own loved ones .. they will fight to protect .. they will fight to banish evil .. & in this fight Khushi will need her MAN firmly behind her .. showing the path .. & when the time comes stepping in front of the barrier & paving the way for her.

________________________________________________________________

Today the episode started where Mami lets out the secret that Arnav was kidnapped ' the whole house predictably goes in a tizzy .. she is questioned why everyone else was not in the loop on the same ' & Mami firmly brings Khushi into the centre of the controversy '

After which starts a very entertaining court room drama outside the court ' Khushi keeps allegating Shyam ' & Shyam keeps ducking the blows ..

Let the games begin '.

Now over here some major POINTS TO PONDER ..

The entire time the drama was playing out .. Anjali was firmly in the centre of the controversy .. all the allegations Khushi leveled at Shyam were addressed to Anjali to make her believe ' All Shyam's explanations were given to Anjali to make Anjali believe in him '.

Khushi starts allegating knowing she has no concrete proof .. no proof which will stand in front of a smart talker like Shyam .. so why does she level these charges at him?'

The whole family is predictably shell shocked ' with some stutters coming out of Nani & some pointed pointers coming out of Mami '

Then comes ofcourse the man of the hour NandKishore .. he predictably backs up Khushi '. He too starts to allegate Shyam ..(loved his slight embarrassment on actually talking about how vulgar, heinous Shyam's deeds were .. also loved how he says What all Khushi had to suffer because of Shyam '.Did u guys catch the slight look from Arnav to his lady love 'a look so wistful .. a look so appolgetic ..sorry was not there for u .. sorry to put u in the path of evil)

But NK too has NO solid proof as of now .. & Shyam is quickly able to parry his allegations aside ' he is quickly able to show this as a misguided guy being taken in by a pretty face'' ( another very small note .. don't know if u guys caught this .. everytime Shyam was cornered he called Khushi as Khushi ' & everytime he was in the clear with an explanation he called her Khushiji ' interpret ' once the man is in a tight spot .. the smooth face drops .. the masks fall & out comes the EVIL)'..

At the centre of this whole cauldron was ANJALI MANOHAR JHA '. & by her side was Mr. ARNAV SINGH RAIZADA '

A man who dint speak at all through the whole episode .. except a couple of times to cool his Di' A man who never left his Di's side at all times ' A man who left his wife to alone to battle the EVIL ' was this what he had promised ' was this the Arnav Singh Raizada we loved '

Point to Ponder for all readers: Why were these Ques not directed to ASR .. please think on this .. herein lies the answer ..

Any bets on who will Put the final nail in Shyam's coffin .. any Bets on when the inevitable "SLAP" happens what will come out ' out will come SHyam Manohar Jha's EVIL persona'. Out will come the MAN .. who orchestrated it all ARNAV SINGH RAZIADA '

He will move in front of his Wife to protect & trust '..he will stand by the vows .. by the Pavitra Vachan he made ' He will HONOUR THE UNION OF SOULS '. ( or he knows the punishment now 😉)

To defeat Shyam Manohar Jha at his own game .. one has to let him make a Tangled WEB of Lies ' from which .. everytime he will try to extract himself .. he will tie himself up further '

So Mr. Shyam Manohar Jha .. the next time you decide to take on the Harvard brain ' do brush up on your literature .. also would be good if you get urself a ladder to get you out of all the wholes you are digging yourself in.

Guys ' exciting times ahead for us diehard viewers of IPK ' the serial today left at a point .. where all of us had so many Questions in our minds '

But uppermost in all this was will the

REAL Anjali Singh Raizada Please Stand UP ' will she or wont she ' will keep us glued to redux .. & chat for a times to come '

So guys I will be definitely there tomorrow .. to witness the opening of PAYAL's pitara ' what will she say .. does she have proof ' or is she refereeing to Khushi & Shyam's past '. Lets all wait & watch what unravels .. tomorrow @ 8:00 pm IST .. on a Television Box , Internet device close to you.

"Truth never damages a cause that is just."
- Mahatma Gandhi

Monalisa!! wow what a title Tanthya...

Truth stands even when there's no public support, because its self sustained - Mark Twain

An episode packed with intensity where truth has began to unfold out to everyone. Where a game plan has been laid in such a way that the lies will be tied around the liar, pushing him towards distrusction.

The best thing about this show from the start is a DUMB villian. The villian who never completely thinks what he is leading himself too.

The episode starts with the family questioning what they are hearing is true or not. The lady of the house opens her mouth and the TRUTH that had been hidden for so long finally makes a way out.



[COLOR=BROWN]Arnav Singh Raizada had proved time and time again that he is the only one in control. That his word is always the final word and in the end, it is always his victory.

Today, Arnav Singh Raizada stayed silent throughout, watching the game unravel before him. When he entered the house, he asked Khushi whether she has prove or not. Fully aware that the prove Khushi has is the truth itself, he didn't stop her for once becasue he has full faith in her ability to let the truth be the prove itself.
He stands there silently observing and taking in every one's reaction.

The conversation was directed towards Anjali, the root person. Khushi's constant attempt to have Anjali realize that she has the wrong person placed at the high pedestal. Shyam's constant attempt to manupilate Anjali, to create such confusions that she would not question him.

Mami, continously trying to join the dots together gives Khushi a benefit of doubt. She has blown th trumpet that opened the lid of the Pandora box.

Nani, absorbing the scenario playing out in front of her, unable to believe that so much has been happening under her nose. Unable to believe that the person whom she treated like a son is nothing even close to be rewarded with such title.

Akash, the protector who stands by the family taing in the horrible truth that is being painted in front of him.

Anjali, fully aware that Khushi's words reflect truth but trying to maintain the illusion as much as she can. She won't let anyone break her perfect world that easily.

NK, an individual who works in a practical manner, a caring brother and a trustworthy friend enters to find relief in seeing his friend and brother safe and sound. His words of being proud to finally attain victory and win leave a mark as everyone grasps that NK has known everything all along.

He confirms that it has been none other than 'jeeja ji' who had been behind all this. Addressing the fact that he has seen and witnessed enough to conclude what extent Shyam has gone to.


"App aur hum dono jante hain ke saach kiya hai!" - A fair warning to admit his crimes.

"Mera muin maat khulwayee!" - NK hasn't just picked up the facts but after joining the dots, he has atleast a vague idea of truth that is still hidden from him.

"Khushi ji ko accuse karna band kerein, app ko nahi pata ke unho ne apki wajah see kiya kiya tolerate kiya hai!!!" - Bringing Arnav's attention to Khushi, and proving himself the witness to what Khushi had gone through in Arnav's absence.

Arnav had stayed mostly silent, throwing occassional glares at Shyam. The slap tomorrow will be his first step that he'll take involving himself in the game when Shyam will cross the boundaries.

The Game has jusy began!

P.S.. I had my money on Payalis for this week! My friends aten't on IF but still 'take that jyoti and simmi!'
