What I LOVED: 11th September 2012

Every dark cloud has a silver lining.

What that basically means is that the dark cloud is concealing behind it a huge source of light, which try as it might, it cannot completely hide. The rays of that huge light shine around the dark cloud and give its darkness a shiny silver outline. Even the darkest cloud looks decorated with it.

The best part is that clouds may come and go, but that light stays on forever. The only way for the cloud to go is to rain, and then sunshine follows. Water and light bring forth new life.

That said I would not be covering a lot today, because some sequences are still in motion. I would wait (as usual) for it to unfold and then form an opinion & write.

Performance

IPKKND Team: Am loving it!!

Progress Points

1. Arnav-Khushi disconnect

2. Shyam's victory

3. Shyam attempts to win hearts

Favorite Scene

Arnav-Khushi missing each other

Khushi disconnecting Arnav's call (YAY! MY GIRL!!)

Khushi hiding her phone under Spinach! She leaves me wondering every time she does something like this.

Arnav & Khushi

Let me start on the better note. Then, we'd move on to the other bitses!

Arnav-Khushi Dori Loosened?

There have been many, many foreshadows in the past month regarding this disconnect.

Arnav announced that Khushi was his wife and she had every right in his house. Khushi found a photograph of Arnav as an infant, where he was bathing, and they shared a light moment. Thereafter, Arnav stopped laughing all of a sudden and took the photo away from her.

WIL: 9th August 2012

"They laughed it off (when the bed broke), he laughed initially and then, when Khushi was relaxed, he stopped laughing and took the photo away from her. (Hmm... really!? Is that nice?)"

Arnav bared his heart to Khushi. However, during this time, the accident occurred and Arnav took away from Khushi that which he had shared with her – his closest guarded self. He's told her that it was his mistake that he let her so close to him, and now she's hurt him. She's broken his trust in her.

Arnav stated that as long as he lives, Shyam would not enter his house.

Quite literally, the Arnav who had surfaced when Shyam was out of RM, has indeed been buried now – for how long, we're yet to see.

Arnav told Khushi that she's done this knowing that he stated that he hates Shyam and anyone who brings him back would be his enemy (I don't really recall Arnav saying the 'enemy' bit, but he may have intended that each time he warned his family to not discuss Shyam).

Khushi attempts to pacify him, explain to him, and even attempted to comfort him – but Arnav is too angry at the thought of his sister being in the hands of his enemy and that Khushi went against him. He does not allow her to pacify or comfort him. He does not allow her to touch him.

When she leaves the room after he's shouted at her to go, he closes the door behind her.

Even as she goes, Khushi longingly touched the door of his room before she leaves.

~*~

Only You

It is an insight into how deeply he loves Khushi and needs her – Shyam has just re-entered his Di's life and his house, but when Arnav lies down to sleep at night, all he can think of is his argument with Khushi and is restless. His only thoughts are of Khushi. As usual, he realizes only as an afterthought, that he told her to leave him and go, and that shakes him.

Khushi silently weeps and only DM is a witness to her broken heart. Arnav has no company, not even DM, and no one to nurse his aching heart.

~

The next day, he can barely focus on anything. It doesn't look as though he is actively thinking of Shyam; it may be bothering him, but his focus is on the fact that since the previous day, he hasn't spoken to Khushi or seen her. He cannot take that much and decides to kill his ego and call her.

Khushi is busy making jalebis (two of them – how interesting!) when Arnav calls. Though initially she is all smiles to see his name flashing on her mobile, she remembers the argument, perhaps, and disconnects the call. [GOOD GIRL, Khushi! LUV ya!!]

He calls again, and yet again, the disconnect. Khushi hides the phone among vegetables. How convenient! And how cute! If Arnav could see what she did with the phone, he'd never know how to react! No wonder he is madly in love with her.

Ye shokhee, uff yumma! Ye shararat, uff yumma!

Pyar kyun na hoga, ye adaayen, uff yumma!

(I sometimes wanna do an entire WIL full of songs – that I love – to fit the scenarios!!)

Arnav finally figures out that an angry fiancee is more dangerous than an angry wife!! But then this is Arnav; He slams his own phone and leaves.

As the Foreshadow Portends

1. Khushi is ousted from RM. Arnav goes out. Shyam enters.

Bingo!

2. Arnav Khushi shagun takes place. Arnav barges in even though he is not supposed to – flaunts that he is technically allowed.

3. Anjali promises Dadi ji that Arnav and Khushi would not see each other after 'haldi'.

Bingo!

4. Khushi stops Arnav from adding 'Singh Raizada' to her name.

Keywords: Khushi stops - not Arnav, nor Anjali, not Snake-wa, not Dadi ji, not Garima. Arnav does not force her. When she stops, he accedes.

Arnav makes Khushi accept that she belongs to him by tricking her, although lovingly.

5. Arnav-Khushi Roka takes place. The new status of Arnav and Khushi is Engaged. Arnav repeats that Khushi belongs to him; this time Khushi agrees.

Arnav kisses Khushi, but because of Khushi's excuses, he is interrupted.

Khushi herself allows and adds the name 'Singh Raizada' to her name.

Arnav attempts to kiss Khushi again, but Khushi sees a shadow and leads Arnav out of that place.

Keyword: Khushi accepted – Arnav again did not force her. He was simply going by her wish to fulfill traditions and showing his love to her. Thereafter, Khushi accepted.

6. Arnav-Khushi Mehendi comes up. Arnav and NK spot something fishy.

During Mehendi, Arnav-Khushi disconnect over Arnav applying Mehendi and dancing. Arnav walks away. Khushi feels that he's run away off to somewhere again.

7. Arnav returns to see that Khushi's dori is loosened. (It was still tied, only a bit loose; minor disconnect; engaged, not yet married.) He calls her aside and ties the dori, and promises his love (Re-binding; bond strengthened; possible promise of marriage or marriage itself). When Arnav and Khushi return to the family, their bond is reassured.

8. During the dance, Khushi and Arnav:

Arnav promises he'd come to claim her and she should wait for him.

Khushi states that he would need to keep his love hidden in his heart.

9. Unlike the usual, this time it is not Anjali to brings Khushi to Arnav. Anjali is not even there; she is with Shyam. It is Nani ji who pushes Khushi into Arnav's arms.

Arnav & Shyam

Arnav was sure shocked to see that Shyam had the guts to come into Arnav's room and spout off his lousy apologies and explanations.

Shyam has the cheek to say that most of what happened between them was a misunderstanding. He leans on the 4 years that he and Arnav had a great relationship, and suggests they start over.

Arnav definitely has not fallen for any of Shyam's crocodile tears, smiles, and the sad face. He listens to the speech but the moment Shyam mentions the name 'Khushi' – that's all Arnav can take. He grabs Shyam by the throat and warns him not to ever speak her name again. Later, he warns him that his Di should not have tears in her eyes again.

~*~

The KEY

Arnav tells Shyam: Don't be under the impression that now you're back for good. It's just that Di is not well. The moment she is better, I'll throw you out.

Short term: Shyam would remember this and keep Anjali bound to him.

Long term: YES! Anjali is unwell. However, the moment Anjali gets better – that is, she sees Shyam for who he is – Arnav would throw Shyam out of his house.

~*~

Winning Hearts

Shyam – as expected – is now attempting to lie low till his place is fortified in RM once again. He is attempting to 'win hearts'.

He's apologized in the presence of Anjali and Dadi ji. What's more, he's stated in front of everyone that he'd need to talk to Arnav to clarify.

Dadi ji doesn't miss the opportunity to make it clear that Shyam was a mature person.

Shyam then prepares to decorate the house for Arnav and Khushi's wedding function.

Again, Dadi ji doesn't miss the chance to sing praises to Shyam.

If now, Dadi ji does find out about Garima, and if Shyam is aware, I feel he'd control the situation. He would not let Dadi ji go berserk on Garima or at least on the wedding proceedings. He has a VERY good way to do that too – the every fragile Rani Sahiba, who has just recovered, and might not be able to jhelo another shock-wa!

That'd add another feather to his cap for Dadi ji who already thinks no end of her grandsnake-in-law.

Plus, as I mentioned before, this is the biggest key Shyam could have to wreck Arnav really good and proper. This information is WAY more dangerous with Shyam than with Dadi Ji. She may have only stopped Arnav's wedding with Khushi. Shyam may use it to wipe out Arnav and Khushi completely.

Anjali

That was indeed miraculous healing. She was super-critical when Shyam was not there. By the evening, she is cooking kheer for him, and he is being diabetically sweet. (That was SO corny!)

Anjali is SO bright the next morning and declares that they are going for Arnav's wedding functions.

Er... Anjali! Have you asked Arnav? It is his wedding!

She really does think Chhote is still Chhote and will get married because she is now ready for it. Now, that she has Shyam next to her, she is all sensible and caring towards Arnav.

Extremely quick, her senses are restored.

When Arnav objects, she still attempts to reason with him.

Wow! She is truly walking down the footsteps of her dear husband!

Others

1. Nani ji, Mami Jaan, NK are totally in shock and in extreme disbelief over Shyam's mockery of apology. Glad to see that NONE of them fell for it. Not even Akash, and definitely not Payal.

2. NK, ⭐️ BRAVO!!!

I'm SO glad NK did an Arnav today! He spoke up SO well where others did not and made it clear on everyone's behalf that Shyam was faking it.

Way to go, Nanhe ji!!

3. Dadi ji finally likes one thing about Khushi – her mistake!

This one also needs to visit the shrink to get her eyesight checked! I'm sure her specs expired 15 years back!

Precap

Anjali is explaining to Arnav about Khushi's decision to call Shyam.

All of a sudden, her sensitiveness to Arnav and her sense to give advice is back!

But Arnav – NO! Anjali should not be the reason for you to proceed with the wedding functions. That's the totally wrong, unacceptable reason.

Proceed, but for Khushi and for you. Not for someone else. You've made that mistake once. Don't do that again. Marry her, but for her and for you!

Bang on analysis as always.

First, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your positivity, I read your posts for a while already but i was a silent reader.

The episode was quite good, Arhi scenes of course were the best.

I loved that Khushi doesn't respond to Arnav's calls.
I loved Arnav's restlessness, thinking ONLY about Khushi
I loved that Nk spoke up.
I loved the rage in Arnav's eyes when Snakewa talked about Khushi.

Reading.. done...
As usual on the spot analysis.. I am glad that you don't jump to conclusion, rather analyze what is actually being shown..
Today's episode was good transistion between yesterday & tomorrow...
Best Scene today: Was the realization of the Raizadas of being played the fool by Anjali... I really think today Anjali took a big tumble in everyone's eyes... the contrast of Raizadas attitude between yesterday & today was fantastic.. great job by the team.. yes this was a team effort..
This was only cemented by Anjali's attitude the next morning... today it seemed to me that the Raizadas were lumping Anjali with Shyam.. making them both seem outsiders... it will be interesting to watch if this will be extended to Khushi too.. will Khushi change her mind when she too sees Di's change.. will she realize how she has been a pawn played by the hubby & wife???
I am still slightly disappointed in Barun's acting.. I want him to kick it up a notch.. his sense of betrayal didn't come across today.. there is something missing between this scene & the first wedding scene.. he was seething with hurt/betrayal for both his Di & himself then.. now it is way way toned down.. it didn't come across that his Di was consorting with enemy.. somehow the closest 2 people are instrumental in bringing his enemy home... the revulsion of seeing his sister being in this man's arms...
Worst Scene : as you correctly mention is the Artifical Sweetner saturated interaction between hubby & wife.. it was a close call either make Dentist appointment or run to the bathroom...
I love your appendage: Snake-in-law..😆... very very apt... As your say in the opening.. once the clouds melt away.. isn't Dadi in for a rude awakening...
As for Arnav-Khushi interaction... ahhh.. the growing pains of a relationship.. Arnav preditiably yells, later repents...climbs down his high horse to call her (we of course don't know if he was planning on apologizing).. & Khushi cutting off the call.. though she is happy that he made the first move.. Khushi.. you know your Arnav.. you can only push him so far... you fell in love with the man in spite of being so different in outlook to life than you, so you cannot expect him to suddenly start thinking like you and rubber stamping everything you do... but you will learn as you go along in your marriage.. happens to most of us..
The precap Anjali was so... nauseating... yes I would like Arnav to declare enough of this re-wedding business... I am so done with it.. Khushi was my wife, is my wife... yesterday, today & tomorrow... I want to get on with my life...
I am almost wondering if like Raizadas, Anjali will start falling in Arnav's eyes.. esp. after her dialog of Khushi did this for your sister, the sister you love more than your life...
The most most interesting part is... even though the contract is over (thanx for keeping track Shal).. Khushi is unwilling to remove her mangalsutra & sindoor... she was not wearing it for mehendi.. but it was back the next day... even today..

you have made a very valid point re Arnav going through with the marriage because he loves KHushi and not because his mentally unstable and manipulative sister wants him to! amazing what a dose of the creep can do - transform her from a 2 yerar old to saayani amma!

Proceed, but for Khushi and for you. Not for someone else. You've made that mistake once. Don't do that again. Marry her, but for her and for you!


Well said Shalini... If Arnav is going to marry Kushi because of Anjali then I don't want them to marry right now...I want him to wait until he is ready., otherwise it will be unfair for Kushi..

I thought Anjali lost her baby but how come she is so happy now... That means she only wanted shyam not the baby... *sigh*... Loved NK Shalini... NK rocks big time...

Thank you for the lovely post Shalini... Always enjoy reading your posts...

Wonderful shalini...

6 points on your foreshadow really made my stomach cringe...
I'm ver much scared abt the marriage now...

As far the precap concerned arnav realized that he made wrong by asking her go by the night itself..but he has every right to be angry on khushi bcoz its his wife yaar...so anjali saying this stuff is not making any sense at all

i loved the way u put the angry fiance and angry wife...both is tough to make up...lets see how it goes...after 5 or 6 episodes i'm waiting for the real arnav khushi again...

but one thing for sure ...arnav is marrying khushi bcoz he loves her but not for anything or anyone else..but even after scaring so much for the marriage when i read the last four lines of your WIL i felt how it would be if arnav knows abt garima truth then also he go ahead with the pheras...then it will be gr8 to watch

Well written positive points and agree with most of them. Abh tak, we saw Arshi discovering how much they mean to each other. Now the dynamics between them and others is changing subtly. It will interesting to see how the whole thing is handled.

I am back :)

Hi Shalini,

How you doing? I am back from my break of IPKKD!!

I haven't watched any episodes after Aug 31st, stayed away from Forum but caught on the story so far thru your WILs (I thought that's the best way to stay connected and tuned to my favorite show called IPKKND).

As usual BRILLIANT, BRILLIANT analysis!! 👏

What I LOVED ABOUT YOUR POST TODAY: I took a tour of the forum today, to get the feelings of Forumwasis!! BOY OH BOY…The whole fandom is in "ranting, negativity, bashing" mode… I saw TONS of posts about people quitting!! SO HATS OF TO YOU AND TAKE A BOW for KEEPING THE POSTS SO POSITIVE AND STRICTLY TUNED TO THE STORY!! Your posts are like "KICHAD MEIN KAMAL"… When we see the beautiful LOTUS flower, we ignore the surroundings in which it blooms (the dirty and muddy water). So your posts are like LOTUS in the Forum that is currently muddied!! (sorry, if I the analogy is stupid).

I loved your opening about SLIVER LINING!! I think it's not only applicable to STORY but also to what the FANDOM (Overdose of SHYANJALI, rushing the plot, less screen time for ARSHI, No Promos , not closing the loops and the list goes on) as well as CVs/PH (their internal challenges, new team, people leaving, budget etc) are going thru. Hope we all are blessed with the SUNSHINE SOON!!

I always focused on ARNAV KHUSHI and ARNAV KHUSHI ONLY but today I want to talk about ANJALI and ARNAV:

I have mentioned many times and will mention it again: Two reasons why I watch/hooked/addicted to IPKKND:

1. 1. Gripping Story and Storytelling

2. 2. Real portrayal and Consistency of Characters (I could literally relate every character on the show with somebody I know).

Since I connected to this story and characters few months ago, I have NEVER EVER even for a MOMENT felt DISCONNECTED, be it with the story or the characters. But today I have to be very honest that for the first time I felt disconnected with Anjali's character and I am TOTALLY disappointed with the Writers/CVs/PH on this!! Seriously no woman on the FACE of EARTH would ever be able to relate to THIS CHARACTER!! Is this a woman who JUST lost a child? A personal tragedy like this, you want to isolate yourself from the WHOLE WORLD… doesn't matter even if it's the HUSBAND!!! My personal experience, NOTHING IN THIS WORLD CAN MAKE UP TO THE LOSE OF AN UNBORN CHILD!! The grieving can never stop and here this woman is romancing her husband, feeding him, she can't contain her smile, her dressing, behaving like a teenager, asking everybody to MOVE ON in LIFE!!!

From the beginning of the story I always understood Anjali as more complex character than Arnav…. She is not what she seems like…She is complete opposite of her brother. Arnav is straight forward, never lies, passionate about what he does, he is clear about what he believes in and what he doesn't, never the one to manipulate people. Loves with passion, hates with passion!! No matter what puts his Di AHEAD OF HIS LIFE, HIS HAPPINESS and HIS LOVE!! But to the world it looks like "HIS WAY OR HIGHWAY", RUDE, ARROGANT, HE NEVER LISTENS TO ANYBODY, NEVER CARES FOR ANYBODY!!

On the other hand, ANJALI is considered the most matured one, somebody who always thinks for others, cares for others, puts others happiness ahead of hers, very honest, simple, humble, somebody who understands people, who values relationships, who LOVES her brother more than anybody. Who can do anything for her brother's happiness BUT SHE IS NOT!!! She has what people think ASR has - self-centered, immature, mean, manipulative, arrogant. But it's all very SUBTLE!!

Writers/CVs have been very good in closing lot of LOOPS and not so good in closing some LOOPS and I don't care about them. BUT there is ONE LOOP I want them to CLOSE ONE LOOP – AJALI LYING TO ARNAV, GOING BEHIND ARNAV/FAMILY TO MEET SHYAM, PARNTERING IN CRIME WITH DADI AND SHYAM. I know ANJALI and ARNAV are KEY angles of the STORY and this angle will not have a MEANING if they don't show this progression!! ARNAV/FAMILY should really DISTANCE HIMSELF/THEMSELVES FROM ANJALI. She really needs to REALIZE WHAT SHE HAD and WHAT SHE LOST!!!

I am glad they are not messing with ARNAV KHUSHI's characters…but TOMORROW if ARNAV agrees to MARRY KHUSHI because of HIS SISTER – THEN THAT IT WILL BE MY FINAL DISCONNECT WITH IPKKND.

I need to apologize for the ranting... but I had to today!!

Seriously Shalini ... I am really on the Hate that creepy couple trip and your WIL is the only one that makes me feel positive abt the serial itself... or I think i am ready to walk... the CV's are giving us a overdose of Anjali and the creepy snake that I am ready to swear off the show!!!!!!!

The day Anjali falls - OMG what a big fall that will be and she will still be whimpering... i think differently that she will not be able to handle that either and she will again make everyone's life miserable!!

ONE FACT CLEARLY STANDS OUT - IF SHE IS UNHAPPY ... SHE MAKES SURE KNOWINGLY OR OTHERWISE THAT NO ONE ELSE IS HAPPY!!! THAT TO ME IS UTTER SELFISHNESS AND SHE REALLY DOES HAVE A LOT OF SHYAM RUBBING OFF ON HER...

NO REMORSE FOR THE BABY LOST,HAPPY TO HAVE HER BOY TOY BACK!
