The Heart that Found Me - Shaurya Rajveer Preeta FS
Show is trying to come back on track:
WT* is back
Jalebi is back
Arnav who confronts issues is back
Khushi who buries the issues is back
Shyam is back in RM *phew*
ASR is back
Khushi...waiting for her to come back.
(Now can WE officially ban kyon dard hai RV in all its forms, Pleaseee.
The bg music when Arnav and Khushi are thinking about each other at night is just perfect, Kindly have mercy on my ears if not on my sensibilities. Thank you.)
Arnav and Khushi Scenes:
They have an argument, Arnav feels rightly let down, Of all the people in the world it is his Khushi whom he trusted enough to believe she would not go against his decision.
Yet she did. He is hurt and disappointed.
She continues to justify her decision once again making the mistake of not thinking the decision through.
She is hurt and disappointed.
Can someone get a psychologist here please?
For Di....whose medical condition improves dramatically once her hubby comes back?
For Arnav....For thinking he knows the best for his Di...Actually he does, but just this once he needs to let go, let Anjali take full control of her life, make mistakes enabling and empowering her to take the best decision of her life in the coming days.
For Khushi...For once thinking through the consequences, putting herself first of having to deal with Shyam day in and day out..
A guy who openly lusted after her, almost killed both her and Arnav and think whom she values more ,whom would she rather see alive - Arnav or his Di
Later,
Both upset at the turn of events, thinking about each other.
Next morning, true to self, he calls her wanting to sort things out.
She picks up, instantly happy that it is him and then remembers their fight.
She cuts the phone.
He tries again.
She cuts the phone again, burying the phone in vegetables...not willing to talk it out or sort it out.
Family scene:
Can I say I loved the way the family reacted, everyone is relieved Anjali is better but none have forgotten about Shyam.
Did Akash hand over an envelope to Shyam? What was that about ?(Was it to say apni biwi khud sambhalo, pareshaan kar diya humain)
Redux kay side effects:
Yes, yes, you can argue, this was the only way, they could have shot the scene and you would be right.
Yes, yes you can tell me forget it Shwets, don't even try, it is so not your forte, Sathu and Doodz are the best people to explain this, You would be doubly right.
Indulge me here, please.
Anjali sitting at the center of the bed with Shyam and Dadi on her either side. Former wants to
harm her knowingly the latter is harming her unintentionally.
One side is NK all alone. Someone who is just not buying Shyam's presence or his act who has seen the worst of Shyam -lusting after Khushi and kidnapping Arnav and is very vocal about it, silenced later by Dadi.
The other side are the Payal, Mami, Akash.
Payal and Mami have seen it first hand his intentions about Khushi. Akash has seen neither side and yet he choses to believe his Bhai's version without any proof.
After all between a brother whom you have seen conquer life's odds for 14 years and a Jijaji you have known for 4 years, It is an easy choice really.
All three not impressed with Shyam and sternly keeping an eye on him. The question is will their belief in Arnav continue or its foundations shaken by Shyam especially Mami & Akash's.
Nani is sitting at the other hand, relieved that she has got her grand daughter back and will not be losing her just like she lost her daughter is sitting on the far end. She has heard the truth from Arnav's side, has immense trust in him and Khushi and watches from a distant as if judging Shyam.
Can I say I am glad that barring Dadi who is finally impressed with Khushi for bringing Shyam back, none of the family are happy about his return or his wanting to bury the past so soon.
Arnav Shyam scene.
I am going to skip Shyam Anjali scenes rather would focus on this one.
Shyam trying his best to smooth talk Arnav, trying to convince Arnav as MU.
Arnav listens patiently, he is starting to understand why Khushi brought Shyam back. Against
his better judgement is reconciling himself to give him another chance till Shyam utters
the word Khushi.
Arnav totally loses it then. He is not fooled by Shyam BE it his feelings towards Anjali or Khushi
He warns Shyam one final time, stay away from Khushi and reminding him his stay is temporary - as soon as Di is okay, he will be chucked out.
Wedding
Boy that was fast, Anjali got over it soon. Okay why am I complaining,lol.
So Shyam wants to get in the good books of everyone, wants the wedding back on track except Arnav has other plans.
Final thoughts:
Show is trying hard to come back.
Would have loved if we had a scene where family discusses Shyam's return.
Would have preferred a more detailed conversation between Arnav and Khushi.
Arnav- Khushi scene - A hint for the future?
arnav - How can you go against me Khushi? It is my mother we are talking about.
khushi - I don't want to go against you, please understand. It is my mother we are talking about.

For Arnav

Anjarai Petti
yet another episode, yet another Anjarai petti.
Situational Song: Nee konna kuda kuthamila... Nee sonna saagum intha pulla... (Even if you kill me, its not wrong- I shall die too, If you say so)
Situational Song :
Anbae Sugamaa? Un Thaabangal Sugamaa?
Azhagae Sugamaa? Un Kobangal Sugamaa?(Love are you fine there? is your angst still safe?; Hey Beautiful, are you fine, Is your Anger still safe?)
Arnav blasts at Kushi that even after she knew that he hates Shyam and Whoever brings him in would be his dushman, she of all went against him... She tries to say that she did it for Di, But Arnav is not happy and then says, he is hurt and it is his mistake to let her close and now she has hurt him.. when she tries to say that if she hadnt done it Di would'nt be with them- He blows his top and asks her to leave rudely.
The love birds later spend their Time thinking about their first first after the formal engagement- Arnav tries to call Kushi in the morning- Kushi who is frying jelabis cuts his call!
Mindvoice: Oodal! Oodal! pinn Kaadal! (Fight between lovers ends up in Romance) Why did she hide the mobile under the palak?
- We know Arnav already knows that Anjali's Credit card is lost and camera eqiupments were bought with it
- We know Kushi saw Shyam sneaking out the other day
- We know that Arnav also with NK's help found an astray cord which didnt reach anywhere
- We dont know how Kushi found out where Shyam is
I felt this because Kushi knew that she went against Arnav's wishes and Arnav is well known for firing people when in anger, She should have picked up the calls right? But she didnt.. Ok it can be purely my wish.. But I would like to take leave with this point below, I had said when Tants was asking us all what did we infer from the episode three days back...(Iago Redux thread)
THESE DAYS THAT YEAR
8th September, 2011
In the Middle of the Road
This was one thrilling episode, where ARHI clashed⦠where Khushi gave as good as she got⦠only to get some more!
The episode begins with the Guptas taking their leave. Anjali once more apologises for the police enquiry fiasco. All is forgiven. Mamaji orders Akash to drop the girls and their aunt home as it is late. Watched by a disapproving Mami, Akash readily leave to get the car.
As the Guptas are leaving, Lavanya stops Khushi and makes her stay back, despite a sternly voiced disapproval from Payal. Khushi succeeds in persuading an even angrier Bua.
Madhumati and Payal leave in the car with Akash. Bua is taken with the soft-spoken Akash, especially when he takes on the responsibility of seeing Khushi home. Payal and Akash exchange a few more looks through the rearview mirrorā¦
Lavanya is getting her petty revenge, when she is again thwarted by Nani.
ASR arrives there asking what is the matter... Nani asks him to drop Khushi homeā¦
Ever the opportunist, ASR grabs the opportunity to get his own back at her for daring to trick him into coming for the Arti. Khushi tries to get out of it, but Nani insists⦠Khushi calls on all the Gods she knows of and them some more and follows himā¦
In the carā¦
ASR is remembering how he was tricked and is seething. But he has no idea how to start his rant. The trigger is provided by Naughty Little Khushi's even naughtier Devi Maiyya! She decides that her favourite children had better start interacting and if she had to make them fight to bring it about⦠then damn it! So be it!
[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLQ6A76JvQk[/YOUTUBE]
ASR tries to remove the Chunri of the Goddess from the rearview mirror. And that sets the little fool off! Now mind you, she is Devi maiyya's favourite child, but even Devi Maiyya won't deny she is Devi Maiyya's most foolish child as well⦠you see, loving mothers tend to favour their more vulnerable children!
Khushi gives ASR a piece of her mind on how to live piously, saying that she will not stand by and watch while he insults God (by God! The girl has some gall⦠no wonder he was pissed off, I am surprised he didn't strangle her) when he tells her with trademark ASR irreverenceā¦
Munh pher liya karo!
Aap kabhi apna sir jhuka liya karo!
And so the squabble goes on⦠ASR had never felt so alive before⦠he is angry, no frothing and fuming with fury⦠but he is all alive⦠for the first time probably, in years⦠just sparring with this slip of a foolish girlā¦
She pulls him up on all his so called faults⦠his irreverence to both God and fellow humans and his relationship with Lavanya⦠she is fearless⦠and foolhardyā¦
He takes it much better than he would have taken it from anyone else, but when she touches on the TABOO topic⦠his parent's marriageā¦
He loses it⦠and here comesā¦
The first of the many famed middle-of-the-road "get-out"s
Stranded! How could he do this to me? (well honey, IMHO, you asked for it!)
He rages back home⦠to his room, flings his car keys⦠rages some moreā¦
But he cools down enough to think about unwanted⦠no unthinkable repercussions⦠a young girl and a pretty one too, not that he had noticed of course, perhaps yes, in a detached way⦠all alone at a late hour at night, in the middle of the road⦠Hang it! He can't bear her tears⦠how can he live if something really bad happens to herā¦
ASR goes back⦠looking for herā¦
Khushi⦠on the other hand reaches home on her own steam
Payal expresses her concern about Khushi continuing to work for Lavanya
9th September, 2011
Anything for you, Jiji!
Payal tries to persuade Khushi to give up her job⦠when Khushi doesn't comply, Payal walks away annoyed. Khushi sets about manaofying herā¦
[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVp0W3rp1mM[/YOUTUBE]
PRESENTING ā¦"Sholay" Khushi Kumari Gupta ishtyleā¦
ASR who had been looking around for her, arrives at her house to check if she had arrived safely⦠he is relieved only to witness her nautanki⦠"zara socho Jiji⦠Arnav Singh Raizada ⦠soot boot mein⦠jail mein chakki-peesingā¦"
A number of emotions pass over Arnav's face⦠relief that she is safe, disbelief at her resilience, pique at her making game of him⦠and through it all, an inexplicable softness, just gazing at herā¦
And yes, he stays to watch her complete performance⦠not until the very end does he drive offā¦
Later that night, Khushi sits under the stars⦠gazing at her mother⦠in the skiesā¦
Shyam arrives with a cup of tea. On questioning, Khushi reveals to him, how ASR threw her out of the car and left her strandedā¦
Khushi goes off to bed, but a seething Shyam is left swearing revenge on "The Raizada" for each and every tear shed by Khushijiā¦
Next morning, Khushi leaves for RM with a new agenda ā¦
She puts mishri in the SUV's fuel tank. She also meddles with ASR's phoneā¦
Shyam ke moodh Bhakth (Shyam's blind devotees)
Anjali - Ahhh, such a relief that the blackmailing phase is over and Shyam's back in RM. Is Anjali going to go scot free because she's innocent and doesn't know what Shyam's up to? NO WAY. She has god given brains that she doesn't want to use and she refuses to face the reality. Whose fault is it? The family is only responsible for molding our behavior and teaching us things until we grow up, but once an adult, isn't it our responsibility? There's nothing wrong in asking for help or correcting ourselves, but pretending to be helpless or hapless is not going to work. Anjali just pretends to be nice and helpless. As long as people fit into her happy world and don't disturb it, she's the nicest person on earth and will help you in any way she can. Touch her dream world a bit and shake it, you'll see her true face, a woman with a hard core who'll go to any extent to get what she wants. Are these the traits of a brainless person or of someone who's a pro at playing games? We've already seen what she's capable of when she didn't get her way and I'll let you all decide how you feel about her.
We've seen a happy Anjali today, a drastic change from last night, just because of Shyam's presence. To her, her whole life is nothing but Shyam ji. If her mood swings continue, it'll be very natural. But, I'm sure we'll see a happy and chirpy Anjali (god save us) who'll now turn her attention to chote, all because hubby dear said so. She has to ensure that her world is A ok first and then and only then she can think of bringing Khushi back and keeping chote happy, right? Whereas, poor chote, he always puts his Di first. So, who's sacrificing here? Anjali has the guts to say 'hadsa hua hi, lekin hum sab kab tak peche mudkar dukhi hote rahenge, hum sabko aage badhna hi hoga naa.' Yeah, let's forget everything in a jiffy just like Anjali. All should be happy because Anjali is happy. Our whole world is only Anjali and none other exists, right? There's still every chance for you to change for the better Anjali, please remember to take it when life gives you such opportunities.
Dadi - Did you notice how she keeps on singing damaad ji's praises whenever she can? Even today she was saying how Shyam is showing his mature attitude in these trying times and how he's just been here for one day, but he's changed things so much, etc. Why does she keep doing this repeatedly? I wonder if somewhere in her conscience it's bothering her that she didn't make a right decision about Shyam. So, by saying good things about him, she's trying to convince her own self that she's right. Also, her ego won't let it go until others agree with her. So, what can she do, but repeatedly sing Shyam's praises? I was glad to see that neither mami nor nani was happy with him. But, will this change shortly? Shall we wait and see?
All we need is Shyam's idol installed at home and to give these two women cymbals to get started with a bhajan session for him.š
Love hurts
Arnav - Poor Arnav, nobody seems to understand him, not even his Khushi. He's already told her how much he hates Shyam and he doesn't want Shyam connected to at RM at any point and when she agreed with him, he thought she understood. Imagine his shock when she told him she's responsible for Shyam's re-entry. He didn't expect this from her. How it hurt him to know that the most trusted person could do this to him. He truly believes that Di will not get better with Shyam around and has sound reasons for it. He's already made it clear that anyone who goes against his wishes will not be his friend anymore. So, which part didn't Khushi understand? Today, the most trusted person, his confidante, his other half, his soul mate, chose to go against his wishes. This is why he never let anyone get close to him, because they always hurt you. It's his fault for letting Khushi get this close to him. She surely crossed the line and broke his trust. "Just leave, Khushi, chali jao yahan se, I said go."
How much suffering and pain expressed in a few words. Sometimes, the things that loved ones do hurt you the most. It's like someone pierces your heart with an arrow, it's that painful. Arnav's past experience has been that those close to him always left him with deep and painful gashes inside. So, he's afraid to let anyone close to his heart. When he met Khushi and she started getting to him in a serious way, he tried his hardest to maintain a distance and to push her out of his life. It never worked. He mistrusted her and it hurt him much more. When she saved his life and he learned the extent to which she went for him, he let his guard down. When Di lost her baby, he shared his inner most thoughts with her and never feared in showing her his most vulnerable side. If such a person breaks his trust, what can he do? By sending away Khushi, is he happy? He knows every time he hurts her, he's hurting himself too. They are two halves of one whole, right? When his whole being is full of Khushi, how can he not feel her pain as his? Yes, temporarily, he's hurt with her decision, but he'll not let it stand in his way. He misses her already. He knows he cannot live without her and the same is true for her too. No matter how much they deny, they truly need each other. Every single challenge thrown at these two will only help them strengthen their love for each other. Shall we wait and see what happens between these two?
Khushi - For the first time since I started watching the show, I'm not happy with Khushi's approach. When she called Arnav and couldn't reach him, she made a quick decision and took it for granted that he'll be happy, because it concerns his Di. What a rude awakening for her. She tells Arnav that she brought back Shyam only for his Di and Di's well-being. Khushi suddenly seems to have forgotten what Shyam did and why Arnav wants to keep him away. Not only that, she argues with Arnav that Di will be better only with Shyam and probably he didn't see his Di properly, but she wasn't even able to move before her husband's appearance. What an insult to his intelligence. Her one statement "If I hadn't brought Shyam ji today, may be Di wouldn't have been with us today" truly reflects her lack of thought and it's only her ego which makes her think she's right. I remember what Arnav pointed out to her when she came to him for money...she never admits that she has an ego problem.š
In conversation with Khushi: Are you a doctor by any chance? NO. Do you know for sure that people who show symptoms like Anjali's, will die right away? Ahhh, that's what I thought based on what mami and nani said. So, you are not even certain. Did you ask the nurse to call the doctor? NO. Did you consult the elders about your decision? NO. I rest my case. How long will she continue with this immaturity and hasty decision making? Has life taught her nothing? CVs, why do you show her as brainlessš. We really love her too much to hate her.
NK - Loved NK. He's the only one who had the guts to say to Shyam's face that he should stop pretending. Where will you find such a good judge of character and a true friend?
