IP REDUX; Brahma Kamal ! - Page 2

Finally an episode worth IPKKND. Still with room for improvement but I'll be patient.

Starts off with Arnav-Dadi standoff. Everytime these two lock horns on screen is a pleasur to watch. Each refusing to give an inch to the other. Both adamant, strong characters, fiercely protective of their loved ones, fixed in their belief.

"Aap kya karna chah rahi hain?" 😆 😆😆

He knows exactly what she is trying to do and he confronts her head on. No beating about the bush. Thats what I love (among other things😉) about ASR. He gets to the point straight away. There is no Main ... Vo,,, Ye... He wants to nip all trouble in the bud. Only Dadi is hardly a bud. She is a hardened old woman who has been through the rigours of life. She should have learnt a thing or two but arrogance colors her judgement. Her son and daughter in law took their own lives. Somewhere, somehow, it made her feel like a failure. This novel emotion did not sit well with her. She decided to punish herself by staying away from her family, from her loved ones, from the luxuries of life. She had to redeem herself in her own eyes. So she punished herself. However, this decision was centered around herself. Subhadra Devi thinks of herself above and to the exclusion of everyone else. She did not think of her grandchildren's welfare 14 years ago when she decided to leave. She left because she was a selfish person, in a way just like her son perhaps. Her son who did not care about his wife or children when he fell in love with another woman. Who drove his wife to commit suicide by his illtreatment of her? The final hurt and betrayal being his extra-marital affair? SUbhadra Devi appears to be just as selfish. It was her selfishness that drove her away then and its her selfishness that has brought her back. Perhaps she feels 14 years of seclusion enough punishment. She now has a chance to prove her greatness by saving her grand daughter's future as she views it. She will set things right. She will prove her damaadji's innocence and good character. She will do all of this because She is great, she is noble. Its all about her. That is why she can only see Anjali's pain. It gives her a mission to prove her worth. Arnav's pain does not touch her because it does not give her a reason to prove her greatness.

She doesnt miss an opportunity to drive her point home. RM relatives provide perfect opportunity. She starts working on naniji. ASR overhears the convo and interrupts. He is firm when dealing about Shyam but dadi just wont take no for an answer. Nani intervenes again to try to postpone the inevitable show down. For how long though?

As for ASR on the surface he appears to be just like dadi. Egoistic, prejudiced, headstrong and unmalleable, fiercely protective of their loved ones. Fortunately for him he inherited some lovable traits from naniji. So while dadi is opinionated and narrow minded, ASR is just and liberal. Where dadi is proud and uncompromising Arnav has already learnt some lessons in humility and self deprecation from Khushi. Whereas dadi is unreasonable ASR will listen to the voice of reason. Most importantly, however, while dadi is self-centered ASR is essentially selfless. His entire effort stems from a desire to protect people he loves. He can sacrifice himself for them as he has already proved. Such is the MAN. Do you wonder why he is so beloved?

Shyam has gussed correctly that a mere godbharai will not get him an entry ticket to RM. So what does he do? Like every other time he makes a fail proof 😉 plan. I'm guessing somebody is going to break a glass right there and there goes Shyamu's plan. Any number of other things can happen too. If he actually catches somebody in his trap, he'll probably pat himself on the back for weeks. First successful mission and all.😆😆😆😆😆

Anji is beyaond me now. I have given up hopes of understanding this character. Actually this character is in serious need of some direction. Maybe we should all pool in funds for a navigator system for her. One that firmly points away from her lying, cheating, conniving, chor of a husband. 😆😆😆😆

Amma's already weak resolve broke once again after she heard the conversation between Arnav and nani. How long will she avoid dadi? Is it even realistic for her to think she can escape her till the wedding? Then again this is IPK. Logikwa ka hiyan kauno kaam nahi. Let's just continue watching this hide and seek till dadi says "Eyes spies"

Bromance continues. Akash had to form elaborate plans with NK including saree disguise at his mehndi. ASR gets free pass though. What to say Akaash. You said it yourself. Everybody loves Raymond...OOPS!!!...ASR.😆😆😆😆

Khushi looks breathtakingly beautiful but does she look like a bride? Not to me. She is sexy not shy. I know its all second time round and evrybody thinks she has had her SR but she hasnt right? Kuchh to sharmana banta hai na.😳

Arshi scene wasnt bad. It was cute. Eyelock was done nicely. Expressions were solid. Now ASR dude. You have returned. Please stay. Dont send BSR in your stead. (Barun Singh Raizada, u know). Nothing against Barun. Just no BSR. We hold IPK very dear to us and we equate it with ASR.😳😳😳

There is a new evening coming up and with it comes another episode of IPK. Another day of hoping ASR will get lucky.

Until next time.

Love you all.

Lost my entire earlier update. This one is a rambling one with no proof reading or correction. Sorry redux wasiyon. Will try better next time.😉

Dadi was definitely on a mission today trying to get her Damadji back. She has started taking steps initiating a conversation with Nani, advising her that its not too late to call Damadji, for his presence is needed to silence all the guests. Dadi fails to notice Nani's dilemma. She continues to converse with Nani on the same subject unaware of Arnav's presence, with Payal and Mami overhearing them. Arnav comes to Nani's rescue stating clearly to Dadi that Shyam cannot come. This angers Dadi who continues to argue with Arnav. Nani advices them not to argue and points out that this is not the place and time. Arnav agrees with Nani but states that he would like to speak to Dadi in a different place. Dadi immediately grabs this opportunity and informs that she feels the same and moves to the lounge. Arnav passes the medicine to Payal and follows Dadi. Once away from everyone. he immediately questions Dadi about her motive and what she is trying to do. To which Dadi replies that today its Anji's Godh Bharai and therefore her husband who has equal rights on the baby should to be present. Shyam's presence is important for Anjali's happiness. This angers Arnav and he vouches that he will make sure that Shyam will never get near Anji nor the baby...

Dadi is just focussed on getting her Damadji...She hasn't checked the facts...She just plainly believes what shyam had stated...I am actually very curious to know...how he convinced her...Offcourse he is a lawyer...he would have done a great job convincing Dadi...plus the fact that Anjali loves him...has made Dadi not to think past it...She is trying to convince everyone while she needs to discover the truth for herself...the truth that is lingering around...to be awakened...

Finally Nani convinces that this is not the right time to have this conversation and promises that she will bring this up and can be sorted later... which brings the whole conversation to an end. The moment between Arnav and nani was too good. His eagerness to leave the past behind... and move forward with life as an uncle to his sister's son and as a partner to Khushi was well portrayed. Nani acknowledges that and states that today if his parents were alive they would have asked for the same...which brings a slight relief to him. The darkness is still looming around waiting to be awakened by truth...

Shyam tries to get back to RM again...but finds himself in a pickle when he notices that the id's are being checked. He finally fakes as Dolak guy and enters RM. I wonder what happened to Mahesh...Anyways he enters RM his glance first falls on Khushi...He looks at her for a moment...it wasn't lust...It wasn't anger...I will leave it...at this stage...without describing it...Then he notices Anjali's shoes...he now knows that Anjali isn't wearing any shoes...He quickly leaves for her room and takes the box he hid under the bed...wears his gloves and spreads the broken glass pieces on the mat...He finishes his task and comes down...In the meantime Garima avoids Dadi and is caught by Buaji...who say that Shashi is fine and pulls her to join the Mehandi ceremony...Truth is enclosing everyone...and waiting to be smelled and disclosed...

1. TO PH wid luv...pls kp the suspense intact w/o any spoliers or articles.we had none till 13th feb and trps were outsttanding.kp the same rappooo.we really dont need spoilers.we all know and r eagerly waiting for the major twist,its boumd to happen ...kp it tight lipped plsss.

2. IPK is a star-crossed lovers story...is it not???jst checking if we all remeber or not?? wid a tagline known 2 al no need to repeat it.question is how many of us actually understand it???arnav & khushi r meant unite but to be seperated evry time soo why al the negativity?? about a spoiler article???

3. for me i feel it will be good if wedding actually happens and arnav/khushi gets separated as husband & wife.there bond is stronger than before,so wat more if there are tied in a 'technically rasam wali shaadi"!!!

i hope my redux fellows r not bored wid my post as i'm new.ur comments r highly appreciated...good or bad.

MEHENDI finally arrives in IPK land. The Mehendi of Khushi and Arnav, they have already finished this rasam during PAYASH wedding. The 2 minute ARSHI scene was magic , I loved them in this. How sweetly Arnav reminds her of the A in her hands on the mehendi function of PAYASH , Khushi Kamaaari Guptaaa.

Bitwa is all naughty and flirty and does not want to leave a chance to flirt with Khushi . YIPPEEE waiting for tomorrow for the continuity of the scene. Nani, this time tells the boys also to join in for the Mehendi , Akash is like hello why was I not allowed the same privilege , well you said it yourself Everybody loves Bhai more. I love all 3 of them together on the screen , its fun to watch them .

Now lets go back to Shyam – Anjali , one question is bothering me why did Shyam wear gloves while spreading the glass pieces, was he sacred of fingerprints left on those small pieces. I am sure his plan is going to backfire as always. Shyam plans of re entering RM is once again foiled by Arnav as he orders the checking of Electricians working in the house. Well Shyam does find another way of entering RM neways. What is with this weird disguises, a beard this time around . Looking lustfully once again at Khushi , well I thought he has started hating Khushi after the kidnapping track , but as they say once a pervert always a pervert . He does not stop his dirty look at Khushi , I have a feeling if he does manage to enter RM before or after the remarriage of ARHI , he is definitely going to be lusting after Khushi .

Arnav wants to forget the past but the great DADI does not let him. What sort of a woman is she even after Arnav telling her that her Damadji is a cheater , dhokebaaz she still wants him to come back. I so wanted Arnav to ask her what small mistake was she talking about . But Nani the mediator did not want to spoil the GB of Anjali. Garima is listening to this from behind the pillar , looking at her I didn't see any guilty expressions or was I wrong in picking up her expressions. She does not want to remind of the past which Arnav so much wants to forget. But as they say what goes around comes back . The past is coming back to haunt the Raizada, Guptas and Malliks. What does this past hold for their future , lets wait and see.

I still do not believe that the TOI article of Garima being the other woman is true. They have not confirmed the source as such. I want the wedding to happened and in grand style. It's the wedding of the Best television Jodi and one of the biggest business tycoon of India ARNAV SINGH RAIZADA. It better be grand and lavish .

I know one thing that ARNAV will re marry his KHUSHI no matter what .

Once gain we had an episode filled with Drama, romance , naughtiness, bromance and hatred. To get your share of romance, celebration, drama , confrontation, thrill , sweetness so not forget to watch IPK from Mon- Fri at 8 PM only on Star Plus.

HAPPIES D BUDDAYS DEAR SAMMY!!!

ENJOY!!
