Heyy Gurls,


Good Morning to U all !!😃


The Heart sings in happiness as I see the opening of KWR (Koffee With Redux) today !!


Never in my wildest dreams did I envision that one day we would have a thread that would be a brand.. That would set a bench mark .. Redux was started as a thread for discussion with just Doods and Me as the 2 writers and soon it became the platform for many writers... Many Poets .. A place where discussions and merriment would keep pace side by side , A place where Girls could dump their stress and rejuvenate themselves.. A place where the knowledge seekers could enlighten themselves from the mundane to the deeply contemplative stuff ...


SO WHY THEN KWR N NOT REDUX ??

Strangely and for some unfathomable reason's Redux begun to get associated with Tants and Doods !! This was not our intention at all !! When we launched Redux our main aim was to give a platform to the writers and the writers to become the beacon for Redux , when we realized that Redux was being devolved to only 2 members overshadowing many a talented writers and speaker's... we decided that we need another platform that will not have our association and yet be a part of Redux..This will be the place where writers will and should get the recognition that is their due !! when we begun to mull over the options.. I kind of had a hazy image of Redux as a University , If Redux was university, what does University usually have ,, A college canteen !! A vibrant hub where students, teachers, all gather, relax and there is a pleasant exchange of information and conversation in an informal atmosphere ..That is when Koffee with Redux was Born !!


IS KOFFEE WITH REDUX DIFFERENT ??

NO, It is not different ..Koffe with Redux is Redux with another name... The Analysis will continue , All girls are welcome to contribute, It is is an open house , If U wish to share ur opinions, ur views ..U are welcome to do so .. Ur views can be serious/Satirical/Humorous or through Poem ...

If U girls feel tired or if u just want to chill out and relax, then join the discussions and have a gala time ..😛




In Short Koffee With Redux is a New Body with the Soul of Redux !!

Wohoo! New Redux😃!! Thanks Bush for opening this and thanks to all the lovely Reduxians..Redux is like a home and now, so is this thread!!

**************************************************************

Seene mein jalti, hai armanon ki arthi,

Arrey what to tell you darling kya hua...
Arrey sapne dekhe jannat ke, par mitti mein mil jaen,
phooken re ghar baar ki duniya..ko bole good bye..

Tauba Tera Jalwa, Tauba tera pyar,
Tera "Emosanal" Attyachaar!


Oh the emotional Atyaachaar...not just on the viewers but also on the bechaare waasis of the RM as well!! 😕
An episode which made me sigh, angry, frustrate and happy(read Precap😆)! So overall an ok epi...I know, I know..I am only saying this coz of the things to come hence forth!!


Thoughts to ponder:
  • Oh! Saw Deepali as payal again..Have to say this, I will miss her very much!She is adorable with Sanaya...😊

  • Itna saara nashta??😲...poor nani! She is genuinely hopeful Anjali bitiya will eat atleast something in this..

  • Buaji comes at the right time to give a tit-for-tat to mamiji...😆She is so cute!

  • Garima is saved! And she realizes how the situation is making her behave,feel...She is happy for dadi for not being here, rather than getting worried for Anjali! Can understand her POV!!

  • Sigh! No Anjali bitiya, not again..Please have something..atleast for others..Sometimes you need to do things for others as well..

  • Nothing works on her, not love, not affection,not care! I really disliked the way she rejects everything, especially the ladoos made by Buaji..removing her hand, talking in that irritated voice as if everyone is hell bent on troubling her, totally disregarding the feelings of everyone...All this grated on my nerves today!😡

  • Glad that atleast Nani understands the behavior Anjali just displayed, is not correct..she tries to apologize for her "naadani" but Buaji being the kind and large hearted, doesnt take offence and easily brushes aside the whole matter! Buaji 😃

  • "Humein nahin samajhna, hum kisi ki baar nahin sunegein".. Exactly! This is what she is doing, she is not understanding, not even trying to do so!! Ahh!!

  • "Aur waise bhi, aap sab humare liye pareshaan hone ka dikhawa kyon kar rahe hain" ..Dikhawa??...Arrgh😡...A Totally totally pathetic thing to say..just imagine how much it would have hurt the family members..the crestfallen face of Nani, mami, khushi ...Ouch, ouch ouch!! This is heights of emotional blackmail...Oh Anjali, aisa kya andha pyaar!!

  • So Garima-Dadi confrontation postponed..again...Kab tak bhagengi Garima ji!!The face-off is near!!

  • So Shyaamwa the creepwa saw Khushi seeing him? How?Uski aankhein sir ke peeche bhi hain? Oh! how confident he is that now she will be the ticket to his entry and sadly he is correct!! 🤢
    But the guys has guts...to even think that someone will come crawling back to apologize...And that too he "feels" it is Arnav...Arnav Singh Raizada!!??..Haha..nice one bitwa..esp at such a tense moment!You cracked me up completely..as your pyaari rani sahiba says, "Aap bhi na"..😆

  • Arnav bitiwa enters the battleground and hears the "haalat" of his beloved di. He cant believe no body contacted him..ya..and so do we...cant believe it!

  • So the devil makes an entry! Can I just say I loved the BG music and the whole "feel" of this scene! Well done!!

  • Loved everyone's reaction.. A shocked and Furious ASR, a shocked and angry nani, a shocked and perhaps confused mami, a definitely confused Akash and Amidst all this,a totally calm,composed and silently evil-emanating Shyaam!

  • Nani is scared that Arnav will do something to Shyaam..she knows the hate he feels for the evil man and she moves forward just to take control of situation if required..

  • As expected, Arnav sees red...he cannot fathom how has the man dared to enter his home without any qualms..and gets an totally unexpected affirmation from Khushi!

  • We knew that she will be the one to get him back in RM, I was bracing myself for that...But the fact that she did not first talk to Arnav about it, is not sitting well with me! Why would she take this step without letting him know first!! Ah khushi! Why?😕

  • She is surprised that Arnav shrugs her hand from his shoulders 😲..but then she should expect this, brace herself for his fury..for he will be more furious when they are alone!

  • Shyaam's voice reach Anjali's ears and miraculously she gets the strength and will to respond, move, speak and live! Clearly telling everyone that it is Shyaam who instills life in her, she breathes because of him and not the Oxygen!

  • Arnav in a fix...He feels betrayed by what Khushi has done and I cant really blame him for that...And on the other hand there is his "sayani" di who has suddenly been revived from clutches of death as being portrayed by Nani..what any man in this situation is suppose to do?

  • Liked the scene acting wise where Anjali thanks him for bringing her pati back to RM..Barun definitely nailed it!!

  • Naniji is also happy for the recovery of bitiya.."jisko khone ka dar tha".. *Rolls eyes*

Other Some other points to ponder:

  • The nurse!she talks about Anjali's condition getting worsened but she makes NO effort in doing something to revive her! Ye kahaan se nurse layein hain? How did she qualify for a nurse? And all that she does is keep tab on the window, whether it is open or not!! *hits forehead*

  • Why has Akash such confused expressions throughout? Its like he is still deciding what he has to feel!

  • Khushi knows where Shyaam is staying! How? and WHY???😕

  • I am glad that this phase of the show is over where instead of feeling sympathetic towards a woman who has just lost her baby, we feel emotionally disconnected to her coz of her constant whining and tantrums...Atleast from tomorrow,the focus will be Arnav, Khushi and Shyaam!

  • Precap looks Yummy!!😆 See, this is what the constant Anjali-Shyaam focus does on us...We want Arnav-Khushi scenes...whatever the scenario...They fight, hate, argue, love, cry or laugh,I want to see them!! Oiyee!!

Credits:

The Shyaam-entry scene was the highlight and everyone nailed it..Except AD..Sorry but that's what I felt! Barun , Jayshreeji, Utkarsha and Abhaas were superb! And so were the Director, the BG music director!👏

Love, Sumi

Thanks Bushy for a wonderful cup of French Vanilla!
Its as addictive as REDUX!
Sorry guys.. I did not leave any for the others! 😉

=================================================================


"SHOONYA" that is the stithi (situation) of my brain right now!

An episode which left me with no ability to think and process.. Its not that I did not like the episode.. Its just that I could not understand why some things happened!

Then, I had an INTENSE argument about it with my lovely redux friends, much like the tea and coffee debate in the picture above.. The topic being WHY KHUSHI? Why did she have to go and get Shyam??

Even I could not believe that I was trying to explain Khushi's actions to them, when I myself was fuming at her for what she did!!

She is a Sanaka devi original.. So usually I don't consider anything which she can or cannot do.. Whatever she does.. I simply accept it.. Cos there is no reasoning with her.. ASR tried to reason with her once on Thursday where he made it CLEAR to her, that Shyam is not capable of change and HE HATES SHYAM! He will not be allowed to come back.. Whatever good it did to him!

We might question her intelligence? We might question her memory? But one thing we can not question is whether her heart is at the right place.. If I was shown that Khushi brought Shyam back cos she thought he had changed, I would be the last person to come to her rescue.. Thankfully I was given this respite..
Khushi brought Shyam back because she found the piece of the puzzle which everyone else missed cos they were not aware of it except dadi!

Repeatedly everyone asked what happened yesterday? Why Anjali ate yesterday and not today? Anji looked at the watch with longing and Khushi figured out why this change.. Anjali was waiting for Someone.. That Someone whom Khushi saw leaving the house stealthily yesterday! She connected the dots.. and concluded SHYAM MANOHAR JHA!

He was the reason why Di is not eating.. Anjali called everyone hypocrite at their faces for pretending to care for her, cos they not giving her what she asked them for. Trust me, there is only one trick for such pampered toddlers, LEAVE THEM ALONE in a corner to sulk! They will come around! But unfortunately Anjali is no toddler and ppl around her including Khushi have witnessed this stubborn streak of her!

Everyone looks at each other helpless.. Nani voicing her worry.. Nurse telling that Anjali's pulse and BP are low.. Khushi scared that some thing might happen to Di.. She has to talk to Arnav and explain it to him.. She tried to call him, only to listen to the phone being busy! Not the one to sit and worry, She takes her next step..

Here Shyam is happy that Khushi saw him leaving.. Sure that she would have told everyone about his secret visits.. And they would have deduced that its not the medicines or the drugs which are keeping Anjali happy, but its the visits paid by him that are keeping her alive.. He is at his gloating best.. Seriously man! Talking to yourself in the mirror! How inflated can your EGO get??

He is biding his time, hidden in hole discussing with himself as to who would come begging on his door to come back to RM.. At his delusional best, he hears the door bell and his deepest fantasy passes his lip.."Humein aisa kyun laga raha hai, khud saale saahab aaye hain"

He opens the door.. Shock evident on his face.."AAAP"

I was 😆

Bucket of cold water on Shyamu's dream of being begged to.. I am sure the moment he saw Khushi standing on his door, he would have rushed back to change and come with her! No begging necessary! 😛

I liked this for one MAJOR reason! Shyam's look of shock was enough to prove that not even in his wildest dreams he had imagined Khushi would be the one to ask him to come back.. Once again, Khushi and her actions have surprised him.. She did opposite of what he thought she would do.. He thought that Arnav might be forced into asking him to come back, but Arnav has not budged from his stand.. To conclude.. SHYAM HAS NO CLUE HOW ARNAV AND KHUSHI WORK, ONCE AGAIN!! This is what will bring his doom!

Arnav reaches home.. Hears about Anjali's condition, gets ready to go up to her room.. when he hears the door open.. He turns to see who it is.. Stood frozen in shock after seeing who it was.. Marches down the stairs to meet the object of his intense hate.. Taking him by the collar and asking the coward who gave him the permission to come?

"Humne" comes the voice of Khushi.. Everyone shocked at her move of bringing Shyam to RM from the front door that is. Back door entry toh chal hi rahi thi!

A visibly stunned and agitated Arnav.. Not believing his eyes about the Woman in front of him.. Again failing to understand her actions.. Not able to see, she took this step for HIS sister.. When she approaches him, puts a hand on his shoulder which has become a habit, he shrugs it off.. His body stiffened with ANGER at her for dis-reputing his word and command! A shocked Khushi looks at her shrugged hand!

The voice of Shyam Manohar Jha pierces the melancholy which Anjali was lost in, she rose like a zombie rising from the dead.. Saying Shyam ji, Shyam ji.. Another life infused in her body after hearing the voice of her Sustainor...

She walks down the stairs wailing Shyam ji, A hand on her heart, which was ready to explode with joy and runs into the devil's arms.. Shyam who last time showed his real face to Arnav while hugging Anjali, Is on his guard this time.. He knows he has to play very carefully this time to fool Arnav.. What he is failing to understand is Arnav is no Khushi.. He will not forgive and forget.. He MAY allow him to be near his sister, but he will not be fooled by his ACT.. One slip and Shyam will be crucified! (I for one am counting on that 😉)

Seeing this all the RM waasis are happy to see the miracle of life return to Anji's body.. Where they thought they were going to lose her, she was back with a BANG!

Well As Tants said, For Shyam's defeat to be final. round one will go to him! So round One to Shyam Manohar Jha.. He has gained entry into RM.. The things will get interesting NOW!

Not only that, For Anjali to find out about SHyam's viciousness she has to see it with her eyes and understand and believe it.. Till that does not happen, the whole WORLD can scream on the top of their lungs but she will keep doing Shyam ji, Shyam ji.. For Anjali to see his true fac, all of them.. Arnav, Khushi, Anjali, Shyam need to be under one roof!

At the end.. I would just say, we all might be angry with Khushi for bringing Shyam back to RM despite suffering at his hands the MOST, but she is the ONLY one who could have defied Arnav and brought him back.. She did try to call and speak to him, but It was her durbhagya or Shyam's saubhagya that she was not able to speak with him! Had she spoken to Arnav then, he would have made sure that Shyam would not enter RM today!

Arnav would not have listened to any member of his family to bring Shyam back.. Khushi is the only one who has the courage to make him swallow the bitter pills..
Just like Arnav, Anjali's health and happiness took precedence for Khushi and all she thought in that moment was, if she did not get Sham back, Anjali's stubbornness would kill her, which she could not have allowed to happen..

I feel for Arnav too.. Khushi's step is the worst betrayal for him.. He chucked Shyam out of RM and his di's life because he trusted her without proofs.. And she betrayed him by going behind the back..

I remember one instance during their nanital trip..

Arnav.. dekh kar kiya karo, ki galti kiske saath kar rahi ho

Khushi.. Itna kuch dekh paate toh humse galti hoti hi kyun?

Arnav and Khushi.. they are so different but so alike.. Both are rash and hasty.. Both stand for what they believe.. Will do anything if they think it is right.. He married her to save his di.. She brought the devil back to his home to save his di!

Needless to say, I am looking forward to the precap playing out tomorrow! 😃

Hopefully we will have that fire back!
Most important.. Anjali will stop with her rona dhona!

Love
Kopal 😊

PS: Thanks to the like and the comment team..😃
A steaming cuppa coffee for my fellow reduxians! 😛

All Over A Hot Cup Of...
Pic Credit:Original Uploader

The smart, dashing,rich,brash,suave, intelligent business tycoon... stood mesmerized when a sweet, innocent ,pretty ,small town girl who had the knack of getting into problems due to her ingenuity at creating them kept meeting him accidentally.
Over a cup of coffee and some times tea each caught a glimpse of the other's personna...and fell in love a little more...Khushi threw hot tea and scalded Arnav and said sorry in her own unique way he smiled at her innocence, the dance mudras on the dining table and he was mesmerized while holding his steaming cup of beverage...their first unofficial date with its chai aur biskoot ki important baatein...
Arnav spilled tea on his shirt in Gupta Nivas to just bicker with his jhalli ladylove in the privacy of the kitchen...the famous shart series started then... the sips of black coffee in jealousy as Khushi pestered Nanheji to choose bangles for her during the Payash Haldi day...

Post marriage too the coffee romance continued ... a teary eyed Khushi who cried alone on the poolside at not being taken home for pag phera by buaji.. was seen by Arnav silently sipping his coffee and feeling guilty... dard tha nafrat ke ishq mein bhi....

Khushi sipping tea reeling under the cold wave of the AC at Gupta Nivas... Arnav playfully reminded when she blushed her nose turned red...☺️ Khushi's habit of talking to herself as Kamlesh Khabri blared on screen... was quietly observed by Arnav as he sipped his tea in silence...

A cup of coffee which Khushi brought for Arnav with trembling hands after the Shyam expose.. as he stood contemplating about events at the poolside... he silently steadied her hand and kept the coffee laden tray on the table ,held on to her hand as a promise of never letting go... to be by her side and not abandon...the silent acknowledgement of love.

The tea and coffee throwing session for starting the tum mujhe apna pati manogi...campaign by Arnav.
A cup of coffee that again came in handy for the roothna manana when Khushi left for GH to spend the last days of the contractual marriage with her family.. the hilarious biwi nahi to TV segment followed...

So many light,funny,sad,poignant moments in Arnav and Khushi's relationship flourished under a hot and steamy cuppa...😉

As the first fight between the husband and wife looms on the horizon post confession...a cup of black coffee for the gentleman and a cup of tea for the lady is all that's needed.. for each to sit back and think about the other's reason behind the action ...and understand it was love for the other that guided them and nothing else...😳

Arnav wanted to protect Khushi from the evil named Shyam who had dishonorable intentions for her...Khushi wanted to protect the star called Anjali around whom Arnav's universe revolved...
Both wanted to be the protector alone and not do it together...The lesson to accommodate your partner's views so that both can walk together in life is the new learning awaiting Arnav and Khushi...😊

Thank you Bushy for the new thread..🤗 and all my lovely friends at Redux...😃 it is a pleasure to interact with you guys every day... and I cherish the addictiveness like my daily dose of caffeine...😊

There is nothing permanent except change.
Personally I hv believed always Change can be positive in most cases, bcz the life and world is coming to a full circle, nature designed everything which starts that ends too, and each end brings a New Begining, the old flowers die, new bloom
So on that Note Let me Congratulate the whole REDUX for our NEW IMPROVED REDUX, A New Begining, A New Hope🥳
______________________________________________________________________________
"It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart." ---Anne Frank, The Dairy of a Young Girl
To tell you all honestly for me the episode didnt bind me to it and to me the writers the designers of the track, the director & the Ph once agn killed a gal called Khushi with what they thought will be
her thinking, but when I sat n thought abt Khushi I realised the best part abt Khushi is her hope,
Like the spider story we hv heard in our childhood, she is once who stumbles, falls tries & until she finds what she wants,,, I hv loved her never say die attitude and i think in keeping that the writer wrote the episode tonite
I know we all felt that how can she be so gullible to get a man whose sinister depths are only known to her, has been bought back by her, how could she agn jeopardise the safety of all at RM for the only one DI, yet when I sat I could Zero down on Hope,,,,,
A small gal who was 8, when her whole world crashed arnd her, As she told Arnav she didnt understand what loss was, death was at the tender age, yet she survived the hard days with a small emotion deep burried, hidden in herself called Hope, she got scared in dark at night, yet she passsed it waiting for the morning/brightness with a small emotion called hope,,,,,
A wish to save her father shop and to rectify the the groom vision,,, a small emotion called hope and then the unforunate experience of her dreams shattered by a small msitake of falling at Arnav' Fashion show & her beaitiful dream of a happy married life crushed brutally by Arnav himself these and a few more examples of Khushi triumphant over the impossible
what makes it possible, the small emotion which is hidden in Khushi called Hope is her biggest strength, this is one which guides her in all rainy days
Had Wright brothers not hoped for Flying and dreamt a machine which could one day fly, we would hv been without Aeroplanes, these and other numerous stories will tells us the power of Hope
Tonite a lot of us were disappointed in Khushi when she bought Shyam back to RM, Infact post episode I ferverntly told my frnds how could she do this bcz she has been the most strong witness of Shyams Sininster depth & his blows hv been borne by her the most, how can she jeopradise the safety of whole family for one Anji..
But then I sat peacefully barring the whole situation and trying to look atit with Khushi, her thoughts She has always valued her relationship and they make her the person she is but somewhere she has understood that for Arnav Anajli is the world, he places high trust faith in her and due to circumstances they today are standing opposite to each other yet she knows if something happens to Anjali, Arnav will not be able to survive the loss
She saw a emotionally weak Anjali crumbling and with the hope is her heart she gambled her biggest gamble.
Tonite when she bought Shyam back
Her Hope was to make Anjali better whilst the forbidden/ unwanted might happen in terms of her health
Her Hope was Shyam might have changed with a great loss of a child
&
Finally Her Biggest Hope was Arnav will understand her love and action with respect to the long journey and faith they hv come across.
Unknowingly and in her naivety Khushi has bought her relation with Arnav on the biggest test, I hope they clear it in flying colors
Tonite I would like to gv her benifit of doubt that in long turn this might prove the biggest asset bcz for once with this move Shyam will come clear in the sinister depth to all across the RM and the final nail in the coffin, Bcz like us viewers Khushi is aware of lot of deeds of Shyam so she is hoping abt the inate human goodness
I am not trying to justify Khushi but am tring to make a effort to understnad the character Khushi, which the makers themselves term as wierd, and twist & curl as and when the situation demands to a dimwit or intelligent
@ Team IPK, I hv always believed and understood communication matters the most the vocal & the silent one both, I understand you had started with a diff team with which you guys created history, but along the way some left some new joined but the story is still the most strongest tool you hv so why do we as viewers feel the disconnect
Unpredicatability was the biggest game scorer for IPK, so why the cliched routine ways of aborting miscarriage to create drama
Why is execution not going the basic way where the viewers connect, why cant the turmoil/conflict Khushi felt, could hv made more impact, why didnt it start a few days bck/ say thursday conti on fri and finally culminated in action tonite, what I am saying is why isnt the buildup which lets audience connect with her, why didnt shyams entry looked unexpected and didnt not make a great impact to us, why wasnt a strong shocking BG that moment
Dedication to Arnav & Khushi Singh Raizada
To love for the sake of being loved is human, but to love for the sake of loving is angelic.

Is It Butchering or Execution?

What do you think? I am talking about Khushi's character. 😆 I have come across many threads complaining that the CVs have butchered Khushi's character just to bring the villain back in the game. As far as I am concerned, I don't find her character to be butchered, the fault lies in the execution as always. When we reach a conclusion, we ponder over both sides of the coin. Khushi should have been shown to wonder how the family will take her decision, will Arnav be able to tolerate the man who almost killed her and Arnav, does the miscarriage mean Shaym no longer lusts after her or hungers for wealth etc? However, CVs just showed her thinking about Shaym's sentiments over the baby's death and made her reach the conclusion that "Shaym ji badal gayay hain" which I find hard to digest. Khushi has been through a lot lately. Its not possible that she didn't learn a thing or two about the harsh realities of this world. By not looking at the whole big picture and just focusing on Shaym's recent actions, it makes her look way more stupid and naive than she actually is. As far as reaching the conclusion that Shaym is a changed man is concerned, KKG has always been forgiving and a bit naive like that. She has always believed in giving 2nd, 3rd, 4th chances etc. She has not forgiven Shaym. She is just giving him another chance. She gave him a chance when she found out he was married. Did that mean she forgave him? Of course, not! She hated being even in the same room as him. She is letting him in just for Di. I doubt her sentiments about Shaym have changed much. Khushi going behind everyone's back and taking such a big decision on her own isn't sitting well with me but perhaps its just the natural progression in her character. Kya hi accha hota agar CVs yeh progression Shaym badal gayay hain walay monologue mein bhi dikhatay.

Sympathy with Anjali?

Dear CVs, I understand very well Anjali deserves our sympathy. I know you definitely know we should be feeling sorry for her. I have always liked Anjali's scenes but lately, she has been starting to get on my nerves as well. What have you exactly shown since Shaym's truth came out that will force the audience to sympathise with her? Even Shaymu has gotten more sympathy for liking Khushi than Anjali has been getting recently. As always, the fault is in your execution. We should have seen the inner conflict in Anjali over believing her husband or her brother and his wife. Instead, Anjali came off as a person who seemed jealous that her bro is getting some happiness. I understand why she would feel jealous of that since her own married life laid in ruins but it wasn't shown properly to the audience. I understand that one of the reasons Anjali wanted to abort was because she did not want her baby to go through the hardships of life like she did but it seemed like she only wanted to abort because Shaym wasn't with her. We analyze the show on a regular basis. If we are confused as to what Anjali is feeling towards Khushi after her accusations towards Shaym, how confused do you think the general audience is? Khushi-Anjali moments and Khushi caring about Anjali does not strike a cord with me because I have no idea what to make of the relationship they share at the moment. Now, she wants her husband. That is understandable. She has seen no undeniable proof that he is a creep and in a time like this, what wife would not want to be with her husband but it comes off as if she has already forgotten the baby and is using its death to blackmail her hubby into coming back to RM. Audience does not like to see that. You show someone emotionally blackmailing their family so openly without even 0.000001% of regret after their baby's death and you are surprised Anjali is being hated instead of being sympathized with? Even mami ji gets sympathised with when she taunts the Gupta sisters of being poor because we can see the purity of her heart, we can see she is scarred from her inferiority complex and a mother in law who probably had hard time accepting her as a bahu whereas all you have showed for Anjali for the past few months is her selfishness and manipulative behaviour. You have not shown much about her pain, her scars from the past, her need to live in a perfect world etc.Focus on showing Anjali's feelings in a few scenes. Dedicating every single scene in five episodes to Anjali without paying much attention to these small details isn't making anyone like her. Focus on the essence, on the quality of her scenes.

Shaymu is Back

We always pay for our sins. If not in this world, then in the next one. However as far as Khushi is concerned, "No good deed goes unpunished" is what comes to my mind. Shaym will create problems for her very soon. Will she and Arnav know that Shaym is the culprit? Looks like Shaym will pretend to be a changed man in front of everyone. However, I still want mami and naani to give him a hard time. If mami can hold a grudge for being called a servant by Khushi, she cannot forgive the man who tried to kill her nephew and betrayed her niece. If naani can taunt Lavanya 24/7 for being a modern girl, she can't stand by quietly as far as Shaym is concerned. Yes, I know they will have to tolerate Shaym's presence for Anjali's sake but they dont have to be nice to him when Anjali isnt around. 😈


Precap

ArHi's first official fight after their love confession. Looking forward to it a lot. Although I didn't enjoy the manhandling part. Grow up ASR. I know you are aggressive by nature but love has changed you in other areas. You know how much you have hurt and bruised her in the past. Please keep your hands to yourself.

Pointless Overdose of Anjali instead of Shaym-Khushi

You know what deserved more limelight than Anjali looking like she is going to die; than everyone discussing again what they were gonna cook for Anjali; than everyone pampering her again? Khushi-Shaym convo when she goes to get him back! Last time, these two were alone, Shaym tried to kill her. Almost all of the audience would have been looking forward to seeing their first interaction after that incident. Talk about suspense, the drama of that scenes. Instead, you showed us 10 minutes of Anjali's pampering and tantrums which was a repeat of last week and you wonder why we crib about pointless overdose of Anjali? The audience already knew how the Anjali scenario was gonna play out. Khushi-Shaym convo is what we were looking forward to.

Greetings... 🤗
Here's to hoping this is an interlude... Here's to hoping we'll rock in this interlude...
Well I think coffee's a bit tame😉... So let's PARTY!!!
😆😆😆
Thanks Bushy, for keeping our hang-out open... we are with you, by your side, behind you (khabrao mat, belan nahi hai😆)..
Doods and Tanths... enjoy your sabbatical, but please be here to chat with us... we love you🤗 ever so much❤️
Sumi: *sigh* I agree with you word by word... Anjali Di UNsayaani has been very very irritating lately, and Mami and Akash reactions are confusing... hope Nani won't forgive the snake for saving her precious Anjali Bitiya...
Kopal:👏👏👏👏👏very, very convincing😆
Koel: Both wanted to be the protector alone and not do it together...The lesson to accommodate your partner's views so that both can walk together in life is the new learning awaiting Arnav and Khushi... 👏👏👏this packed a punch
Jhalak: Agree with you, word by word on the disconnect part. I have no issues with Khushi bringing Shyam back, as long as her arguments are convincing enough... and it is necessary to show it before the fact... Even if she puts up a convincing argument up to ASR in the next episode, it won't wash well with me... you are right, the build up was pathetic... we should have been with her from the word go, not dragged willy-nilly into it and then having to be by her side... zabardasti...
And now, for some nostalgia... will be talking about some better days... days of magic and fun...

THESE DAYS THAT YEAR

5th September, 2011

Janmashtmi

Sri Krishna Janam Katha continues…

… for all the good it did…

AAARRGH!!! Anaconda!

Krishna ka naam 108, par aapka pati aur humare PG ka bas ek? Anjali is just about prevented from blurting out her husband's name to Khushi…

Mami ne gira diya makhan… pharsh par… aur faayda utthaya Rabba Ve ne! par use pehle…

Gust of Wind… (phir se?) shut up, aane do use, kam se kam bore nahi karte humein…

Now! Where was I? Yup, Gust of wind…

… part 1 idhar…

… toh… part 2 udhar

Where Gust of Wind leads…

Rabba Ve follows…

OK! That will do! Snap out of it! We got the point.

Par yeh kya? Yeh ASR bhi na! Rabba Ve ka poora mazaa loot liya… aur wapas apna rang dikhaya…

He overhears Khushi asking to be let off duty early and Anjali's request to her to stay back. Khushi hesitates…

Aise logon ko overtime ke double paise offer karo…

He succeeds in ruffling Khushi's feathers… he is willing to stay and have a bout of words with her, (hmm… excuses, Sonny Boy? You want to keep talking to her, don't you?) when Nani trounces him… by roundly telling him to mind his own business…. GO! Nani, GO!

Anjali solves the problem by inviting the Guptas over…

Nani talks to Bua Ji…

Yeh khabar sun kar…

man mein laddoo phoota…

Idhar bhi, aur…

Udhar bhi…

Tai tai phish!

Lavanya Kashyap is plotting against Khushi…

6th September, 2011

Episode starts with Bua trying to persuade Shyam to go with them to Raizada House. Shyam refuses ill humouredly…

In RM…

Tutoring watched over

Invisible strings

Arnav comforts an upset Anjali… Shyam had called her to say he won't be coming at all that night. Anjali gifts her brother a set of Indian clothes.

The siblings reminisce about the Janmashtmi when a 7 year old Arnav had done something to the cucumber readied for Baby Krishna… which resulted in the Baby Krishna being stuck…

Nigaahein milaane ko jee chahta hai…

The Guptas arrive… and are welcomed…

A skirmish and a goat.

Akash Ji… Payal Ji… Romance Ji…

Nani and Bua bond over Lakshmi…

Lavanya had summoned the police to do a verification on Khushi, insulting and hurting her… and angering her aunt and sister. But she gets paid in her own coin as…

Nani vouches for Khushi and…

… orders a background check on her instead…

The drama is put an end to, in the most no nonsense manner possible…

… and the perpetrator gets a well-deserved glare.

He is once more made uncomfortable by her tears

Rabba Vey…

7th September, 2011

Aunt and niece talk about their insult… Khushi is determined to keep her job…

Thaali Romance…

Getting ready

Ghee on his shirt-sleeves…

Plotting…

Let there be Light!

Haathi Ghoda Palki! Jai Kanhaiyya Laal ki!

Natkhat Khushi!

OH!

Iss Pyaar ko Kya Naam Doon!

Credit!

Overheard!

Angry!

Lavanya gets fried!

This is all you fault, Chamkili!

Did a bit of these over the weekend, which are scattered all over Lilith😆...
Here they are...
