For my wonderful sistah S003!!! (Sheila )

" You want free speech, lets see you acknowledge a man whose words make your blood boil, who is standing centre stage and advocating on the top of his lungs, that which you would spend a lifetime opposing on the top of yours". The American President
The above is a line from a mindblowing speech at the end of a movie that truly showed me what democracy should be... what freedom means... what independance is.
Now you may ask me where is the connection...
Today, 65 years(did I do the math right) after independance we watched as a family tear down a girl...watched as a family asked her if she had any morals... if she believed in the norms of society... and when the girl tried to speak up... the girl of 25 was told when adults are speaking children shouldn't interrupt...
No I don't have anything against the show, in fact I love how beautifully IPKKND weaves important story lines into its fantasy world.
Today, showed me we as a culture have not come very far... I know I am being too serious... a certain CV did comment about that before... but television is a mirror of our society anyways...
The show today unearthed the true face of Indian society where a woman really doesn't have any rights to even open her mouth and defend herself, because if she does she will be considered " without morals". Today, Khushi's silence irked me more than anything, not because it was out of her character but it would be something I would do even today...
The episode today resounded with injustice... the three women questioning Khushi about her actions should be hanging their heads in shame because their upbringing and their son did what he did to her... the sister (Payal) who stood by silently and let people talk about Khushi should have stood up for her because she has always been by her side... and the aunt who was so quick to judge, and raise her hand, should be the one grovelling at her feet because she had insisted on bringing pure evil into her life... Instead we have these people thinking they are so righteous throw mud on her character...
In strides ASR... this time he won't let anyone touch "his wife", today he eluded to what he did to her...how he married her... he will repent everyday of his life... he is screaming on top of his lungs she is my wife... but will anyone listen... we live in a world where rules of society helps us establish the right from the wrong... we can move forward because of these set rules...ASR has always been above these rules but he is not alone anymore and inorder to truly be with Khushi he has to get off his high horse and comply... I loved this scene...
I also loved the sheer unadulterated joy with which Nani and Anjali reacted... But more than anything I loved the return of the mastermind... he is watching them... he is placing them right where he wants them before he strikes... loved it.
Note to CV's
1. I did not ask for this remarriage track... like Khushi and Anjali, I the viewer also have big dreams about an Arnav Khushi wedding, during the last wedding you by far exceeded my expectations so this time around expectations are sky high... just saying.
2. I love how this show is moving, one amazing episode after the next... you are really hitting your stride... however... I hate to burst your bubble here but there are certain unanswered questions that should be answered... during the kidnapping you didn't show us how a grown man walks out of airport with kidnappers surrounded by police, they couldn't have guns you see since 9/11 airport security is extremely tight... do think of these things, then Arnav says I love u, why suddenly? what came over him? No answer. And now the house of a prominent businessman is wired and his own security system cannot detect the same... lots of questions marks...
3. What is Mami thinking? Is she happy Khushi is thrown out of the house? but she knows how much she loves ASR and how much ASR loves her? is she still blaming her for Anjali and Shyam? Please explain...

4. And finally... SHYAM IS THE ONLY VILLIAN IN THE SHOW CAN YOU STOP WITH THE BIG REVEALS!!!
So today as we celebrate our independance day... we marvel at how far we have come... and look up to how far we must go... thank you IPKKND for subtly showing us the problems Indian society faces, in India and around the world... there is no big showdown or righteous speeches only real emotions of the people in the show dealing with it... in a sea of melodrama I can't express how refresing it is.
To all my friends of the Redux... Happy Independence Day!!!! See you can take me out of India but you can't take the Indian out of me.
And so I end with the speech that sums it all up nicely...
"We have hard work ahead. There is no resting for any one of us till we redeem our pledge in full, till we make all the people of India what destiny intended them to be. We are citizens of a great country on the verge of bold advance, and we have to live up to that high standard. All of us, to whatever religion we may belong, are equally the children of India with equal rights, privileges and obligations. We cannot encourage communalism or narrow-mindedness, for no nation can be great whose people are narrow in thought or in action" Nehru.
To the redux thread that is the true sign of democracy. Jai Hind!!!
And that ladies was my (patriotic) two cents...
S
P.S. Today's post is purely meant as an expression of my views... opinions which I am legally allowed to have... if I have offended you in anyway I apologize. I do not normally stick around so please PM me your comments.

Happy Independence Day to everyone who celebrate it on the 14th and 15th of August every year.😊
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jeene ke Ishare Milgaye... Bichde Theh Kinare Mil Gaye...


Pic Credit:Sienna..

The lips finally voiced what the heart always screamed... why Arnav always challenged Khushi to force her to be in close proximity with him...why Khushi's thought's were preoccupied by him...why Arnav was disturbed by her indifference... why Khushi came back to him after every hurt that he gave her for a new pain... why he always wanted to remove that wayward strand of hair that covered her face... why she was glued to the spot she stood when he gently let his fingers glide on her hands and face...

Arnav and Khushi finally said...they loved the other truly ,madly, deeply... the eyes and lips conveyed the song of the heart without pretense, hesitation, feeling of rejection... nothing mattered to them except their love which would always be eternal in their hearts ... like the love of Radha and Krishna... Krishna always filled his Radha's heart and she did the same for him... no one could understand the depth , purity and the perennial nature of the their love.. Dadi, Buaji, Anjali,Payal and Nani failed too see this reflection in Arnav and Khushi. Their love had led them to lead the relationship of marriage in honesty. Even when the ceremony was incomplete physically,it was completed in earnest in the mind,heart and soul for the couple Arnav and Khushi.
The question mark about it was put in Khushi's mind by her near and dear ones...to clear the aspersions hurled they had to abide by the wishes and desires of the family they cared deeply about...

The decision of remarriage from Arnav was a shocker to everyone...as the man was never known to agree to do anything against his ideologies so easily...Nani and Anjali saw a good grandson and brother who relented to the family's will...Dadi saw a man who was bewitched by an amoral girl,Payal saw a husband who stood up for his wife... Buaji a damaad who truly acted like a son... Everyone missed the point that Arnav agreed to remarry Khushi because he didnot want to taint the love they shared...if agreeing to societal bindings kept it secure... he was ready to undertake the task...

Arnav's evil opponent Shayam with the peppy music heralded his presence... he too was a witness to this momentous occasion... He had been beaten earlier by misreading the Arnav -Khushi equation...this time he will not be caught unaware... he kept a vigilant eye on what transpired in Shantivan... primarily between and around Arnav and Khushi... Shyam knows now love binds them in strength...He will hit at the love that Arnav and Khushi have for each other...He will try to exploit it in his favour by creating situations where either Arnav or Khushi has to bend to his machinations so that the love of his/her life is not hurt... but again Shyam has not read Arnav and Khushi's equation in totality... he knows their strength... but is unaware from where the strength emanates...He might temporarily see victory in his evil agenda..but the source of Arnav and Khushi's bond of love- the will to not let it go...eventually would resurface to destroy it's arch nemesis forever...

A fond retrace back to the moments which brought out... I love you Dammit!!!... Hum bhi aap se I love you Dammit!!... Hum aapke aane ka intezaar karenge...

Jaihind!
Thanks tants for opening a platform for us to discuss and analyze in the first place..😊
and by the way! hum bhi aapse I love you damn it!😳
There is gonna be a wedding yippee! 🥳The moment is something that was expected for quiet long.. but when Arnav told he and Kushi are ready for a remarraige, it felt as if there is a wedding in my own family! Such is the effect of this show on us... redux was full of bride's side vs groom's side yesterday! had so much fun... much more to come!
Now off to Anjarai Petti!
Vada Poche
Situation Song: Nenje nenje thirumbividu nadanthathai maranthu vidu
Kushi comes back to the room and seems quiet interested in continuing the task that she had stopped her pati from going further.. but pati is no where to be found. She waits for him in the recliner but falls asleep before he comes back. In the meanwhile Arnav is seen driving his suv on the streets of delhi- his favorite way to cool down!
The next day Kushi wakes up and sees a cleaned up room and searches for Arnav and calls him. But he is nowhere nearby.
Mind voice: Arnav bitwa, wrong time to go on a drive... if you had stayed back.. ahem ahem.. at least you would have got a chance to finish what you started with! next time, take bitiya also along with you for the drive...
Kozhi matkichu
Situation Song: Sothanai mel sothanai
Kushi comes down and wishes Dadi, Nani and Mami. Dadi keeps staring at her. Kushi goes to the kitchen where payal asks her if she is alright. Kushi is summoned by Nani. Nani questions her about her wedding with Arnav and Kushi admits that only they both were present and it was solemnised with only mangalsutra and sindoor. The family breaks out into a fierce agitation. Buaji is summoned by Dadi and Dadi questions Kushi's character in front of Buaji.
Buaji asks kushi if they havent performed any rituals that bind them as couple and Kushi confirms it with a apology.
Buaji goes to slap Kushi in anger- which is promptly stopped by Arnav.
Mind voice: Naanga vanthutomla... Vanthu urutukattai kaiye pudichutomla... pinna.. exercise ellam panni muscles yethi vechathuku use venam?
Situation Song: porkkalam ange poovil kaayam inge
Arnav says no one is allowed to touch his wife, let alone slap her- the family(read dadi) again questions Kushi's character and calls her names- Even when Arnav mentions again and again that kushi is his wife and goes by the name KKGSR, no one agrees with it.
Situation song: nee illai nilavillai nizhal kooda enathillai
finally Dadi says Kushi cant stay at RM without proper wedding rituals. She taunts buaji as well who decides kushi shouldnt stay even for a min in Shantivan. Kushi and Arnav are devastated!
Veedu mulukka Kalyana vasanai!
Situation Song:
Vanil oru puyal malai vanthal alage enai engena kapai
Kanne unnai kanil vaithu imaigal ennum kathavugal adaipen
Saathhiyam aguma
Nan sathiyam seyava

Arnav tries to stop buaji who forcefully takes kushi to GH and finally says he is ready to do all the rituals - for Kushi's sake even though he thinks that the customs and rituals are all bakwas. Nani and Anjali are happy and so is Payal and Buaji. He says he is ready to marry his wife again so that their bond is recognised by his family. He and his wife are ready to get married in front of the families involved!
Mind voice: kanalam kanalam pogothaiku kanaalam... Happy that they are getting married! but a small hiccup... It would have been nice if he had turned to her and asked her in front of his family - to marry him .. But I guess, he didnt want to take any chance here...
Arnav to Dadi: Unakkum bebba ungappanukum bebba!
Situation Song: Po Nee Po
Dadi's plan to send Kushi out becomes a flop as Arnav decides that a remarriage will take place. Dadi doesnt seem very happy about it but she agrees. She still says that Kushi cant stay at RM until a proper wedding takes place. Kushi leaves with Buaji.
Mind voice: On your face dadi! ippo enna pannuve ippo enna pannuve...vevevevey
Situation Song: Aiyayo aiyayo pidichiruku
Arnav looks at his departing wife with a sad face and then the door opens again. Kushi comes in to speak to Arnav. She looks at the others in the family and they all leave giving the renewed bride and groom some privacy.
Arnav looks on when kushi says she wants to say something before she leaves and says ever so cutely that she also loves him Damn it! THis brings on a smile to Arnav's face and a smiling kushi further adds that she will be waiting for him to come. Arnav's smile grows a little wider again. Kushi turns and leaves again- Arnav keeps beaming at his departing love!
Mind Voice: romba gutterish pa... so 🤬 Mindvoiceku pathila keela iruka video parunga!
Maapu vechutanda Aaapu!
The entire drama a RM is watched by the one and only shyam who is shown to have already made a move in observing everything happening at Shantivan, via cameras which are fitted at almost every nook and corner in Shantivan... Shyam is a quick learner.. he is using NK's idea but still Arnav is aware that the ememy has already started making a move!
Mind voice: Nalla vela da samy nethu onnum nadakala... Aiyya illana free show parthirupar!
video for today:
This is actually a tamil movie song- a wedding song! until the wedding happens this, I shall try to load a wedding song daily... excuse me if the song pushes you right into the gutter!

I seriously dont enjoy analysing the episode... and forum dosnt help me enjoy the episode too... so this is what i feel... and i'm happy that there is a 'pm' SERVICE... Thouhgh it is SECRETIVE and the comments expressed there doesnt get 'SAMAJIK APPROVAL' Of comments and likes... It appeals to my feelings... Which has no sense of Social messagewa while watching a luuub storyyy... had to tell this here as i may or may not continue with the forum ritual...😉




coming to today's epi... the cvs have given upon the activists and the bhakts... and have decided to cater to the needs of lesser mortals like me... who can only feeel what they seee... and SO I HAD A "SEEETI BAJAAAO " moment... no prizes 4 guessing that was an "ARNAV" moment...😉



so... a EAR full of BASHAN from every "NAARI"of the house...and fearing a seperation from the sanskaari "naari" he loves,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, My Bituwa surrendered to them... a forced marriagewa?😉 dont worry dat ARNAV will cry... "humaare bhawnaaon aur armaanon ka kyaaa..." i always wanted "a black suitwa 4 my marriage...😳 and" hum yeh sapne dekhkar bade hue ki hum shaaadi hi nahi karenge... aur Aman will do the "DULHAA DAAN"...😉


Because ARNAV can sacrifice HIS dreams, feelings and "husoool' for the one he loves...😊


jaathe jaathe... did i hear a confession...? And i instinctivly knew... so what if the dialogue is different... her sacha prem and asli zindagi was there...it was the great moment THAT a 'PATNI' is telling her PATHI...


"oh jiii... suniye tho...aathhe wakth
"dooodh packet zaroor le aaayiyega... warna math aaayiiyega..."😆


😆


loved how ARNAV smiled with his eyes...paisa wasoool for me😛

Res...for Ghausia madam 😃

BEFORE I START: Thank you Rits for reserving this post for me! Huge hugs! 🤗


"Every action has an equal and opposite reaction" Just something for you guys to ponder over...


Hey guys! I promised you guys a maha analysis & I shall deliver on that promise! I haven't seen today's episode yet & I wrote this analysis earlier. I'll update soon with pics & analysis of today's episode.


Yesterday's episode was just magic. I can't think of another way to put it. Okay, whilst I'm sure many of you have many profound analyses and thoughts surrounding all the occurrences of the episode, I'll just talk about the highlights for me 😉 So the episode started with Anjali, and all I have to say about that is that she looked like a teenager texting her secret boyfriend (I should know what that's like because all my friends do it!). This obviously means that her relationship with Shyam is being rebuilt from its initial foundations. I truly hope that through this we actually get to see more of Anjali & Shyam's past together. Won't talk about Khushi and the box as Sathu has already given a brilliant take on it, which I suggest everyone reads!


I'm not good with the religious side, but I found that whole scene touching & Arnav teasing Khushi about babies was funny - mainly because of Khushi's terrified expression 😆


Image 1


But it really reminded me of Teej when they were all gathered round and praying. Of course, we also saw the tension between Arnav & Khushi during those celebrations as well, but that was because of the unknown attraction between them. Now it's because of the heightened attraction.


Image 2


I absolutely loved the bedroom scene from start to finish. When she walked in scolding Arnav for yelling at her like that in front of the family, it was such a husband-wife thing. Before, Khushi tolerated it whenever he yelled at her, and we'd see her in tears. Fine, he didn't yell at her a great amount this time but I liked the way she asserted her rights as his wife here. Then when he gave her the present, I remembered his failed attempts to give her a gift on her birthday.

Image 3

& when he said 'main aise hi hoon' when scolded by Khushi for giving her a present in that way, it made me think of all of their differences. They're madly in love, yes, but they're both still polar opposites. We saw lines being blurred a few months back when Khushi seemed to be taking on Arnav's characteristics and Arnav seemed to be a lot more in touch with his emotions (mainly anger, but still 😛) - now they're back to how they were again; you can still see the ASR traits in Arnav, although they're not as strong and dominant now, and you can still see bubbly Khushi, although she too appears to have toned herself down slightly. I think that's what we call growing up, na?


Now to the good stuff. When he told her to put on the gift that he bought her, I'd like to blame Sathu, Shaz & Rits amongst others for my gutter mind completely misinterpreting what was in that package 😆 But despite being annoyed at him she still accepted his gift and put it on - that shows, to me, that she has wholeheartedly accepted him for who he is. She knows he isn't the sentimental kind, and she has now embraced that. She's accepted him, warts and all.


Do I need to say anything about when she stepped out of the bathroom and hid from Arnav?

Image 4

She was the blushing bride, and it was adorable seeing how shy she was. Immediately, I had a flashback to the Nainital trip, when she changed into the shaadi joda and her dupatta fell on the floor.

Image 5


Image 6

Once again, the dupatta is in Arnav's hands, but rather than looking away from her this time, he gave her a loving, piercing gaze, marvelling in her innocence and beauty.

Image 7

Image 8

Image 9

He sensed her reluctance, so he slowly approaches her, and a shy Khushi doesn't know what to do with herself. He puts a hand on her shoulder and she turns around, feeling apprehensive.

Image 10

With reason too - remember what happened the last time someone put their hand on her shoulder like that?

Image 11

But she sees Arnav in front of her and he reassures her. Taking her hand, he leads her to he centre of the room so he can openly admire her.

Image 12

Diwali flashback, anyone?

Image 13

The last time they came this close and Arnav stopped it, and then he broke Khushi's heart by getting engaged to Lavanya. Will history repeat - Khushi stopped him this time so will she be the one to give him pain and heartbreak now? All of the indications of the past looming over them seems to give us this idea. The most touching part was when Arnav put the dupatta on her head.

Image 14

Another flashback, this time to when he threw the dupatta and it landed on her head.

Image 15

That time it showed that no one can stop them from getting married; this time Arnav was completing their marriage. He gave her her dignity back, showing respect for her.


The hug successfully portrayed the nerves these lovers were feeling. I personally felt as if I was intruding on an incredibly private moment when I saw this part. The hug was light but it was so intense! Arnav with his arms around her, comforting her by stroking her back, and Khushi's arms slowly responding to hug him back.

Image 16

I'll leave the bed part out as I know that analysis will be filled with guttery thoughts 😆

But the way she looked at the idols & realised the importance of the phere in her marriage. I was talking to Rits & Joy about this - here was when she proved to Arnav that she was not going to be treated like Lavanya. Yes, I wish we had at least gotten a neck kiss, but this was an important scene because once again their opposite sides were shown - Arnav doesn't care for any of these traditions, but by obliging when she told him to stop it meant that he respected the fact that she kept true to her values.


In anger and frustration (we ALL know why the bechara was frustrated 😉) he led her to the terrace where he set a fire up and began taking phere. This was his way of completing the wedding, but it was a forceful way of doing that - in this way the forced marriage was complete. I think this was the CVs way of showing us that that chapter of their life is now closed and remarriage will occur. Dadi's entrance shocked both of them, yet Arnav held his ground and kept Khushi in his arms - this could symbolise something in the future. If the going gets tough, he will stay by her side. Also, notice how Dadi just left? Maybe when she sees that Arnav will always support Khushi she'll back off and Shaadi's (Shyam & Daadi's - funny na?) plans will fail. I'm certain that something is brewing now. Dadi was being uncharacteristically pleasant in yesterday's episode and didn't even say anything when she saw Arnav & Khushi in that way and heard what Khushi said.


Now, the biggest moment in the entire episode - the long-awaited confession. I've read on Redux that this was Doods' prediction? Well done Doods! To me, this was the completion of all of the 'farak padta hai kyun ki...' & it was the first face-to-face confession. The terrace was very significant here because we all remember the last terrace scene. This would've been the confession we had gotten then, and it's taken 6 months to get back to that stage. & Arnav confessing in anger was perfect, so in character. Well done CVs!


When Arnav left, I thought of the bangles scene when Khushi was left smiling at the bangles.

Image 17

Here she's smiling because he has finally decided to give their love a name.

Image 18

All of the argument was basically faith vs feelings. Arnav kept saying 'what about what we want - our feelings?' & Khushi kept insisting that they needed to legitimise their relationship in a real way.


They will reach a compromise; Khushi had been compromising for 6 months and now it's Arnav's turn. He has to do all of the rituals because he owes Khushi her dream wedding. I really hope that if they do separated it's because the family say that they cannot live together without getting married properly & whilst the wedding is being organised they have to live separately. Okay, that is complete wishful thinking on my part. Now, time for analysis of today's episode!


Okay guys, I haven't got time to post more screencaps, sorry!

Today's analysis (more me fangirling than a true analysis):

Before I begin - happy 6 month anniversary to Arnav & Khushi! Today is OFFICIALLY their 6 month anniversary (in real time, not reel). Someone bring the jalebis!

Firstly, can I just say that OMGOMGOMG some of my predictions from yesterday were right! Of course, since both these analyses are in the same post it's impossible for you guys to tell, but I swear I only just watched today's episode, so anything I had written beforehand was completely not influenced by today's episode.


ASDFGHJKL; THEY PLAYED TU HI BATA! That's one of my favourite background pieces of the entire show (my first being Shyam's tune and second being the music used in the scene where Arnav helped Khushi choose a sari). But aww, in that scene Khushi was remembering Arnav's 'farak padta hai kyun ki...' (did I not say that in my analysis? Great minds think alike 😉)

Khushi was basking in the feeling of love whereas Arnav looked shattered and broken. There was a tinge of fear in both of their eyes, though. We could see how this new revelation confused the two of them. Khushi then wakes up the following morning and looks around for Arnav. Yep, you guessed it - role reversal this time. Khushi's looking around for Arnav but to no avail.


Did anyone else have a flashback to the reaction to their wedding when they saw the confrontation? Once again, Khushi was targeted and made to be at fault. Yet this time, Arnav did what he should have done back then - he stopped Buaji from slapping her. last time, he watched as Garima slapped Khushi, but this time he stopped her, asserting his authority as Khushi's husband.


He agreed to marry her again with all the rituals. Did I not just say that above too? It was Arnav's turn to compromise, and he'll do it for the woman he loves! Aaand I also said that separation will be because Dadi said they cannot live under one roof until their wedding is complete *feeds herself jalebis in celebration* 😃

"Hum aapse bhi I love you dammit."

Can you be any cuter Mrs Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada? I was daydreaming through that whole moment. Aww!


Shyamuuu! As soon as I heard his BG music I literally squealed. Our Snakewa is back with a vengeance! One thing that freaked me out slightly though was that he said he installed cameras everywhere. Um, even in ArHi's bedroom?


Hope you enjoyed my take on events. Please like/comment!

At the stroke of midnight, 65 years bck, We INDIAN's recvd the Independence, A freedom to live breathe, educate, earn, vote. A freedom to be free citizen,,, to Cherish that freedom and be thankful for that moment here is my friends


HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!
___________________________________________________________________________
Dilwale Dulhania le Jayenge...

If fame were based on kindness instead of popularity, on understanding and not on worldwide attention, you would be the biggest celebrity on earth. And to my heart, you already are.

Day 6 & Day 7 continued...
A Beautiful episode in terms for performance, romance & faith, No wonder most of us are enjoing the 12 day challenge Arnav and Khushi hv embarked to make their realationship a accepted one not only to them but the world too, Its a Journey of exploaration, understanding, accepatance, healing and being together, each day brings them new chapters of Love, A salute to team IPK for gving us beautiful insightful episode which capture the streangth & fraility of Humanity...
Khushi had returned to their happy that finally she had got what hadnt even expected in her dreams, Arnav did love her all the time when he had stood by her, most important when he had thought he had lost her prior to their marriage confirmed her belief that he had loved her for a long time and the happyness and joy on her face stand to testimony to the happiness she feels and she misses him, she runs to the door to the window, to the stars to wait for him.
He is out on the road fighting his inner self, and she waits for him, the morning comes and Khushi wakes up and finds a clean room, she instantly realises Arna must hv returned sometime in night, but she finds it strange that he hasnt woken her up, any ways after chcking the whole room she decides to look for in the family room, and once she reaches down , u see a hesitant khushi who faces Dadi & the family and when there is lull she reaches Kitchen the sister in Payal catches her fear and once agn khushi is quite,,, not explaining or telling anything, I loved it here with the small understanding shown between the Gupta sisters, Post Shyam fiasco, Payal seems hv got her intituveness back and she has started reading Khushi agn
The family, Nani, Anjali & Dadi confront regarding Khusi abt their marriage, once agn Khushi doesnt tell the whole truth and keeps it limite to the temple and the simple procedure with which they got married, the whole RM is struck, disgusted with the thought of not being properly married and nani clearly showing her disapproval, amidst that Buaji enters, and Khushi is surprised at her being there on an early morning, what follows is to ensure that dignity of this gal who has stood by her man is in tarters and infact dadi goes beyond the obvious lines and calls her low and that too infront of her family,
A gal in indian society is a proud representation of her parents values and teaching, she is the very emblem on which society marks the family, any small step which isnt confirming to the society norms result in a black mark for the whole and Khushi has been always telling this to Arnav, ON her wedding night too she had asked Arnav do u understand the meaning of this MS & sindoor in a women/gals life, more than love & commitments It marks her respect,,,, Today no one would hv belived the ladies of RM who are representing the whole female strata of the society are standing against the Khushi, who time n again hv taught values at RM, A young gal who entered their lives with the right foot to start the right begining, A teacher who came to teach Lavanya the value of indian culture & family, A sister who stood by her sister to get her married to the man of her dreams, A mami who has witnessed Khushi love for Arnav during the kidnapping fiasco, A wise matriach who has seen khushi fulfill all her duties and bring change in their rebellious son and a sister in law for who Khushi has sacrificed her own life in marriage, in death too, A bunch of women against a help women in the name of rituals society , Are we truly women , who pride ourselves in gving birth, the strength of Durga, Saraswati and Lakshmi who are ready to pull a women in tarters at the smallest hit of incorrectness.
I loved buaji in the next scene where she questions abt the charges being laid against her and once khushi accepts the fault buaji is set to deliver punishment, and a proud Arnav comes in between,
His " Apni patni ko haat lagani is izzazat maine kissi ko nahi di hai, thappad marna to door ki baat hai"
I loved this scene for two reasons
1) Arnav stood by her, against the society & family he cherishes, she has made a mark in his life forever now, A husband who had left her to face the wrath on the wedding nite alone
2) The women in this scene, all had open mouth as if believing that the fault is not only Khushi's but Arnav's too.
and then finally when Arnav realises there is no other way to keep Khushi in his life but to give to family demands he agrees to marry her again, gving into Khushi dream, He looks into her eyes and tells Nani, WE are ready to remarry, not for a moment he questions her or seeks approval from her, he is confident in his love in their love and therfore tells the world that and the look of relief that courses through nani( A women who knows how adamant Arnav was against marriage), anjali( A sister who knows how faithless Arnav has been in relationships) & Payal, for a moment even dadi's face softens(wonder it was due to past or happy to know that they are doing it the right way)
and the most fav scene of the day for me came,
Khushi is leaving after they all agree for a remarriage and the look of longing in both their eyes, and Khushi comes back everyone smiles knowing that she has come back for Arnav, but she shyly hesistantly approaches Arnav looks into his eyes, very simply and cutely, without any frills and any grandeur she tells him "hum bhi aapse i Love u Dammit" she once agn stood true to herself, simple words full of faith for him & the smirk, A heart warming soul fulfilling smile,,,Oh Boy it once agn the women in me got bowled, this was the same smirk which he had gvn when during kidnapping he realised KKGSR had come for him...

Khushi needs to hold Arnav firmly, he has habit of roaming on roads😉
Return of the the Dahiya ho😲,,,, Begani Shaadi mien abdulla deewana😆😆
HP😡😡😡 ur such a dimwit
Return of Maula mere 😊Maula, always bring a small seperation which brings them closer in destiny, in heart
Farq padta hai finally graduated to I love u dammit!!!
The more world pulls Arnav & khushi apart the closer they come, Dadi or Shaym no matter who👏👏
&
Finally if Shyam is the villain, Then DM is the champion for A& K so my faith with DM agn😃
Dedication to Khushi & Arnav Singh Raizada
Nothing to lost in love but every thing to achieve
I know its early but I would love everyone to njoi this , One of My fav,, from the bridegroom
BTW I AM FROM BRIDE SIDE

Everyone is invited to the grand wedding of this year...

When a baby girl is born, her parents dream of ways to bring her up in this world. One of their dreams is also to provide a beautiful wedding for their daughter and get her married to her prince. When that baby girl is old enough to play dress-up, she tries on her mother's dutpatta as saree/pallu in her room and dreams about her wedding. It's the wedding she dreams about even before she meets her Prince. She nurtures her feelings and waits for that special day, where she declares to the entire world that this prince is her husband, friend, philosopher and an equal guide to their ongoing journey of life. One such girl is our Khushi. She dreamt of her wedding, happening with all the rituals. She dreamt of a wedding where she invites everyone. She dreamt of a wedding with a prince she loves. Today her DM has granted her wishes.

We all witnessed the ultimate sacrifice that Khushi made to save her sister's wedding. She wasn't aware of her feelings for Arnav at that time. She was aware of Arnav's hatred but wasn't aware of the reason for that hatred. She didn't get any answers for her forced wedding as Arnav was not interested in disclosing the reason. She got married with no witnesses and no rituals. She was married in haste and had to face the wrath from both the families without any fault of hers. We also witnessed some erratic behaviour from Khushi as a result of this shock. But today she knows Arnav loves her so much that he cannot bear to see anyone hurt her. She knows that she loves him. They trust each other. Finally she is getting a wedding she dreamt about... marrying her prince charming with all the rituals. Today along with Khushi, I was smiling. I was happy for her.

Finally the journey that started with "farah Padtha hai...completed with Hah bantha hai..."

The journey that started with, I hate you...completed yesterday with I love you dammit...

The episode begins with our khushi reliving the precious moments in her life. She has found the answer to all her Farah Padtha hai...questions...Yep finally the mighty ASR had blurted out in anger that he loves her...She affectionately touches the flowers that was brought by Arnav. The wind brings the notice of his presence and his absence and she waits for his arrival. She finds solace in his recliner and dozes off to sleep.
Khushi wakes up to the morning sunrise and immediately directs her eyes to the bed looking for Arnav . The absence of flowers confirms his arrival and she searches for him in the pool side. She concludes that he might be outside and hurries to refresh and meet him. She comes to the living room only to be scrutinised by Dadi. Her greetings were reciprocated by Dadi with a glare. Both reflect the terrace incident in their mind. Unable to break the awkwardness khushi moves to Nani and greets her, all the while aware of the gaze from Dadi.

Khushi escapes to the sanity of her kitchen only to be greeted by a caring Payal who immediately picks up that all is not well with her sister. Their conversation was interrupted by Nani calling for Khushi's presence in the living room. Without any ado Nani questions Khushi directly the method in which the wedding was performed. Khushi is lost for words and realises that dadi had disclosed everything to Nani. Khushi finally manages to tell Nani that because the wedding was done at night there was no Panditji. This was enough to shock every one. Everyone comes to know that their wedding was not performed by Pandit. There was no chanting of Mantra. Just a Mangalsuthra and Sindoor were the only representation of their wedding. The question to whether the Phere's were taken or not was interrupted by the entrance of Buaji.

Khushi is shocked to see buaji's presence. When dadi who was silent all this time points out that she requested Buaji's presence the reality of the situation dawns on Khushi.

Khushi what did you think'that you can manage everything again...without letting anyone know. It's good that Buaji is here. The truth has to come out khushi. It has to for your sake...

Dadi Introduces herself to Khushi'sBuaji and inquires on Khushi's parents. Buaji replies stating that they had gone to Aryuvedic clinic to check on Khushi's father's health. I sometimes wonder what would have happened if Garima was present today. I am left pondering over endless possibilities.

The details of the wedding and the illegitimate, forbidden relationship of Khushi and Arnav were recounted to Buaji again. Unable to comprehend the situation anymore Buaji orders Khsuhi to disclose the truth as to whether the peres took place in their wedding or not. Her worst fears were confirmed by Khushi who tells her the truth. Unable to take the insult that was bestowed on the family again Buaji raises her hand to slap Khushi. ASR stops her midway. His love and protective instincts for Khushi overrides his respect for Buaji at that moment.

I haven't given anyone permission to touch my wife let alone slap her...With these words Arnav Makes his presence known...

Today I couldn't stop myself from recalling the incident that happend Six months back...When Garima slapped Khushi you witnessed that slap. You prevented Khushi's fall from the slap by holding her. You did look furiously at Garima for slapping Khushi. But you never stopped Garima nor did you question her actions. But today things have changed. Khushi has occupied the most important place in your heart. You cannot watch anyone hurting your love even if it's her Buaji. You have come a long way Mr. Arnav Singh Raizada...

Arnav's conversation with Buaji was interrupted by his Dadi who points out the legality of the wedding. Arnav points out that he doesn't believe in any rituals. Anjali joins the argument by stating how can they accept this wedding which happened without any rituals. Dadi was quick to insult Khushi and her family. Finally unable to take the insult that was bestowed on his Khushi and only for his Khushi he agrees to re-wed his wife with all the rituals and give her the wedding of her dreams''...

If I have to remarry my wife again for her to be accepted as my wife then I am ready to do...Wow...how beautiful was that statement...He makes everyone aware that they are still husband and wife...Even for a second he cannot think of Khushi not being his wife...Khushi even when he talks about remarriage he honors the temple wedding. It still holds the same value for him.

He looks only at her when he agrees to undergo the rituals...clearly stating that these things are important for you khushi and I will do anything for you even if it means to undergo the rituals that matters nothing to me...but matters everything to you...The smile on Khushi's face was reserved only for him...She knows that he is doing this only for her...

Everyone is happy with Arnav...for he has agreed to go through the rituals...for a moment We could see a glimpse of hope in Dadi's face...a slight smile...on her face...which didn't go unnotice...but she was quick to compose herself...Naniji promises Buaji that they will come to their house on an auspicious day and ask for Khushi's hand in marriage with Arnav.

With that pleasure Buaji leaves with Khushi with a desperate Arnav watching his Khushi leave. He still hasn't spent a moment with her alone after his declaration of love. He doesn't know her feelings yet. As a person who has understood the inner trauma of Arnav...Khushi walks in to give that reply which brings in all the happiness & strength in this world for Arnav...Yep she reciprocates his love with her answer...though the style was khushi's the answer exactly the same as what Arnav said...Please come back soon and take me...I am waiting for you...With this final statement Khushi leaves RM...

I always thought that Khushi should give him a little hard time before declaring her love. But It wouldn't have agreed with her character...Khushi cannot see anyone upset...let alone Arnav, her prince Charming...No way...She had to express her love for him..She couldn't wait...and she said it in her style...Soft, sweet and beautiful...just like her...

All this is witnessed and monitored by none other than Shyam Manohar Jha...who has started to make his move...He looked like he is ready to take his ultimate revenge against Arnav & khushi...the episode ends with a terrible specter of Shyam Manohar Jha...

I would like to thank the entire team of IPKKND for giving us another fabulous episode👏👏👏
Amazing Performance by all the actors...👏👏👏👏
Wishing you all a very Happy Independence Day😃
Thank you everyone for taking time to read my post and also for your encouraging comments.
Love
Sharmi😊

HUM BHI AAPSE I LOVE YOU DAMN IT!

THIS was cute, this was adorable, this was downright funny, this was simplicity and innocence personified…

But it was real, it was sincere, it was from the heart, it was heartbreakingly beautiful; it was heart wrenchingly pure… and very very rare.

For who else, but Khushi Kumari Gupta can hurl such a googly at Arnav Singh Raizada? Who else but this one in a million child-woman can render Arnav Singh Raizada speechless with joy? For he was speechless; yes, he was elated; he was surprised; he was left smiling too. Poor Arnav didn't know whether he should laugh or just be happy. Trust Khushi to throw his own words back at him, in such a manner. If it was Hitesh Kewaliya who wrote this dialogue, then Kewaliya Ji, "hum sab aapse bhi I love you, damn it!"

A lot has been said and written about Arnav's pain, Arnav's emotions, Arnav's feelings towards Khushi. A lot has been said about Khushi's feelings not being clear; that Khushi does not love Arnav as much as Arnav loves Khushi. But we are talking about two different individuals here. They are two people with diametrically opposite ideologies, but with uncanny similarities at the same time. Though made for each other and despite being two halves of a whole their needs and requirements from this relationship differ.

Both are strong in their own ways, but Khushi needs worldly protection, which Arnav is more than capable of providing along with her emotional needs. She needs to feel needed. She needs a safe haven where she can be herself, she needs to know that she can throw anything at Arnav, good or bad, and he will take it and still love her. She needs to love and be loved without reservations or expectations. She needs to feel the feeling of absolute belonging without being obligated in return. For she knows what it is to carry the burden of gratitude for the love and protection other children command by right…

Arnav on the other hand needs support and guidance. Emotional and moral support; and guidance in the aesthetics of life. He finds both in Khushi. Khushi makes his life easier. She brings him light and joy; pride and peace; full on entertainment and at times, quaint wisdom. Without Khushi, Arnav is a rudderless ship. Arnav, though as strong as an oak, needs anchorage.

Last night's episode though subtle, served to underscore their need for each other. Faced with the threat of separation, they stood for their love. Arnav fought with all he had and Khushi, though bound by the shackles unique to womanhood, silently lent him the support. Not once did she open her mouth and put the blame of forcing her into this illegal wedding on Arnav.

And Arnav too was bound. He had to save his relationship with Khushi and at the same time not bring up Shyam. Though Nani and Anjali were aware that to some extent, his sister was the reason for his sudden wedding, they are not aware of all the fact. In Arnav's eyes, his Di is just getting back to normal after the fiasco. He didn't want to upset her further. Besides, he wasn't sure how the Guptas or Payal might react when they hear the entire truth about how Khushi was blackmailed into this wedding. He was handling the situation with kid gloves. Was that why he sent an apologetic look towards Khushi when he said that he is very well aware of what the circumstances were when he and Khushi got married? He was probably apologizing to her for misunderstanding her at the time. He was also apologizing for not clearing her fully at the moment. And at the same time he was mutely asking her for her support in what he was doing… and Khushi rose admirably to the occasion. She was selfless, once again and as always she excelled at it.

But the truth should come out. It is a must. For how else can the show go on. Doods is right. This is not about Arnav and his feelings. This is about social responsibility. The responsibility of the storytellers towards their audience- the responsibility to uphold that which is right and punish that which is wrong. The responsibility of putting forth the age old lesson, that," that which goes around, comes around."

No innocent shall be sinned against.

No wrong shall go unpunished.

No loop shall be left unclosed.

No evil shall be silently endorsed.

No mistake, however justified, shall go un-atoned.

There are millions of people watching this show. Each mind watching is unique. Millions of views, hundreds of opinions and tens and thousands of view-points. Young, youthful, mature and elderly; intelligent and the average; silly and mature; good and those with the leanings towards the forbidden; those who are easily influenced and those gifted with the power to influence; impressionable and rigid- you name it, we have it among the audience. And TV is indeed a powerful media. There is a reason why the shows come with a disclaimer in the beginning:

"the characters, places and events mentioned in the show are fictional and bear no resemblance to any person, living or dead…. The channel/production house does not share or is not responsible for any views/ opinions expressed by any character on-screen"

This is fiction, this is make-believe. Do not mix it with real-life…

But normal people do not read disclaimers, do they?

Everyone knows what is happening around us. Young girls are lured and trapped daily into the web of lies and deceit in the guise of love. While some are lucky, many disappear off the face of the earth, never to be heard again. What happens to them is anybody's guess. The PH here needs to address issues here:

LEGAL

1. There is no such thing as contract marriages in India. You are either married for life or you are not. Once married, you need a divorce or an annulment as the case may be to be free of the bond. And divorce is not so easy as depicted on-screen. The courts believe in keeping people together, not splitting them. So, darlings, word of advice- look before you leap.

2. A marriage is not valid if:

a. There are no witnesses

b. Is not conducted according to religious rites/ or sanctioned by court

c. Either of the parties involved are unwilling/ coerced in any way

d. Either of the parties involved is under the influence of drugs/ alcohol/ consciousness altering substances

e. Either of the parties involved is mentally unstable/ suffering from epilepsy

f. Either of the parties involved is getting married under false pretenses like:

i. Hiding the fact that they suffer from certain health issues

ii. They are already married

3. Marriages even if conducted according to full religious rites need to be registered legally. For that the bride and groom need to give notice 1 month prior to the date of registration.

4. Live-in relationships may not be frowned upon now as much as before. But the courts do not protect the rights of either partner in case of dispute eg. Division of property or legitimacy of any children involved. Such children are now recognized, and they have a right to paternal property, but it was not so in the old days.

SOCIAL

MARRIAGE is a sacred institution, not to be taken lightly. It gives the legal right to a man and a woman to co-habit. It provides the issue from any such a union legitimacy. It protects both partners involved in several issues… issues like adultery, division of property, right to maintenance, etc…

It also has a social standing.

In short, it is very practical…

While such issues have no meaning when two people are in an ideal relationship, such ideal relationships are not always the case. It is easy to get duped, and the gullible are always easy prey. The world is not always draped in rainbows… there are clouds and darkness too…

Reality and legal issues are tweaked a bit here and there for the sake of creative licence. Besides, who cares for reality? Reality is boring. Also, if we are interested in reality, we would watch Satyameva Jayate, won't we? All the same, it is essential to keep one foot firmly grounded while floating in ARHI land…

It is essential that while we do not lose faith in Love and Goodness, we must keep our eyes and ears open too…

Remember our mothers… they wait for us at home…

Remember Professor Alastor Moody… "CONSTANT VIGILANCE!"

Sorry once again for coming across as a prosy bore...😆
But couldn't help it! One of my second cousins is still suffering for a youthful indescretion... after 25 years. Ran into her yesterday at a mall...
