Date Night Vey My fellow Reduxians🤗
Before I start can I just say "Agar Munche ho to Shyam Mahohar Jha jaisa" I was howling with laughter at 4:30 in the morning and all thanks to you. Who knew Creepwa will kick start my day with laughter.🤣 🤣
Nothing much to write about today. The episode was breezy, light hearted with some inner meanings and Creepwa's planning. Khushi- Arnav going to the restaurant a day earlier than their booking, does that allude to them trying to get together before they are supposed to? I'll leave the decoding for my wiser friends. Now just a bit of rant alert or as we say in educated world "constructive criticism". It's not really about last night's episode, it was sweet. We got lots of Arnav- Khushi moments. But just a general feeling I've been having recently. This show's USP has always been Arnav- Khushi, their love- hate relationship and the underlying passion from that first scene between them at the fashion show when Khushi landed in Arnav's arms and Arnav Singh Raizada thought "Uper wala jab deta hai to chappad phad ke deta hai". Yeah yeah I know he is atheist but it's only a figure of speech. I have already talked about too many tracks jumbled up together and ArHi should be at the forefront but am I the only one who is thinking the all important Passion between the leads is missing? From the earliest scenes it was so palpable, so evident that you could light a bonfire with that chemistry. Don't get me wrong, its still there, but its so on and off for me in every episode. They are like a couple who's been married for 5 years and things have settled into a nice comfortable pace. But why is that so? These two have been through so much, finally they have expressed their feelings for each other, they should be like can't wait to start our lives together type. I mean I appreciate the understanding, love, respect, trust between these two but where has that passion gone from earlier tracks? Anyway, these are just my views here. Maby for most of you this is how it should be, but for me it's just a bit diluted. Maby I'm just a sucker for intense and passionate romance.
I know I called Arnav "The Khushichurian Candidate" the other day, but it's kind of turning into truth for me. I knew since the beginning that the biggest challenge for CVs one day would be to find that perfect balance between ASR and Arnav when he finally admits that he has fallen for Khushi. Arnav Singh Raizada was not meant to remain like he was in the earlier episodes. Natural progression was supposed to happen. Arnav asked Khushi in the restaurant "Do you want me to change?" and Khushi said No. But is this the ASR that I expected? For me this is not natural progression. I am happy that he has let his guard down around Khushi and showing his emotions, his love, his joy. I know he is supposed to change and he shouldn't treat or act with Khushi the way he used to but who is this mellowed down person? Do people's characters really change that much. I wish I could. He is freaking Arnav Singh Raizada for God's sake. Couldn't he just tell the waiter that and managed a table at his favourite resturant? Atleast he paid the bill. Otherwise I really would have shot someone today. I mean where has the arrogance, attitude, I don't give a Damn persona gone? I know it won't be there for Khushi but it should be there for other people. If he can walk in GH during Shagun and take Khuhi's hand in front of every one without a care in the world, why is he jumping through windows? Why is he suddenly so tolerant of HP? I'm not saying you should shout at your helping hands but this is ASR we are talking about and he won't suddenly go Thank You to HP. And Arnav mimicking Khushi, it was cute but Arnav isn't CUTE (I'm talking about his behaviour here). Arnav always had a dry sense of humour, he will try to make Khushi smile some other way and wipe away those tears. This is one character in this serial which hasn't gone though the inevitable assassination, you have created one of the best characters in TV history, please find the proper balance.
Hmmm?looks like I had a lot of "Constructive Criticism" to do after all.🤔 I'm saying again these are just my views. So please don't feel that you have to agree with me or I'm trying to sway someone who is perfectly happy with the show. If you are, good for you. Will just leave some pointers from the episode:
"I love you the way you are"?..what everyone in the world wants to hear from their loved ones. For me it's probably more precious than hearing I Love You. And it was definitely the best part of the episode.
- Please someone assure me that Khushi's dress wasn't Velvet. She looked pretty and I didn't dare look too closely.😳
- Looks like Khushi is starting a new fashion where bride to be wears Sindoor and Mangalsutra everywhere and people don't even blink.
- Dadi and Anji?Liars Liars?.Sarees on fire.
- Did Dadi grow up in a boot camp somewhere in strict military regiment? Why always the strict tone? Even with her grandchildren whose happiness supposedly matters to her more than anything else why that Darth Vader tone?😕
- Not talking about the extras anymore. I think everyone noticed Mohan driver having dinner at ASR's favourite restaurant.
- Had to google it but found out Kala Khatta is Grape Juice. IPK is certainly increasing my vocabulary.
- Was Anji going into premature labour after hearing about Arnav? What was that expression?
- The electrician bunch in RM, are they going to break into some synchronised dancing somewhere like a Boy Band?
- Precap: I got blinded by too much colour. So will leave that for tomorrow if I do write. Though after today's ranting I might get PMs from everyone to just Stop.
But in all seriousness, I probably don't say it often enough, but thanks for being there for me. I love you all🤗
