Spice Girls Hangout:Introducing Mr. and Mrs. ASR!

Hello Sari and SG's!

Sari: Wonderful post and lovely pics😃

Shaadi Mubarak ho Arnav and Khushi and a big congratulations to all the Arhians world over🥳. Khushi's and my faith in Arhi's love was rewarded with a truly beautiful union today. I am thrilled that finally love won over hatred, good over evil and present/future over the past👍🏼. The emotionally weak, lonely boy found it in him to move past his demons and towards his Khushi and honor her love and faith in him. Despite the dard, nafrat and dhoka he was standing there for Khushi and that answered all his questions for him..

"I'm sorry Khushi, aane mein thodi der ho gayi par aana toh tha hi.."

"Hum jante the aap ayenge, hum jaante the ki aap hame akela nahi chodenge.."

Today as the episode played out I could not help but think of Lavanya; her parting words to both Arnav and Khushi came true. Arnav learnt that "pyaar nafrat se bada hota hai" and her words to Khushi "Arnav samjhe na sumjhe tum sumhuj jaogi ki use kya chahiye". So true; Arnav needed some time to think everything through but Khushi's unwavering faith and trust from the beginning that he would come because that is what he truly wants too.

I loved everything about this BW style shaadi including the OTT Khoon bhari maang. Anjali the loving sister redeemed herself a little; "in dono ka rishta toh issse bohat ooper hai" very true and finally she found it in herself to voice her opinion against Shyam and put her Chote's happiness above all. Nani approves of and supports her Chote's biggest decision and cautions him against doing anything in future that would hurt Khushi. What a truly unbiased and dignified lady👏👏!

Seeti maro moment for me was Arnav standing up to dadi and shutting her up with "Sabse bada saach yeh hai ki main Khushi se pyaar karta hoon". The thorns have always troubled him but he cannot punish the beautiful rose for that. What a wonderful lesson imparted from mother to son; a truly beautiful moment. He always knew that his father was wrong; the other woman and his mother were mere victims of his deceit. He ran not to choose between his mother and Khushi but to clear his head, understand the googly fate was throwing at him and make the right decision. Despite all the drama; I'm glad he took his time to realize the importance of love, of his Khushi instead of rushing to the mandap and creating a scene there or getting married in haste only to regret later..

Loved the little playful moment when Akash lifts Arnav up during the varmala ceremony, the smiling faces of the family, the relieved expression on the Guptas faces, a smiling Payal who I thought looked beautiful today. I absolutely loved the IPK BG score during the wedding and the pheras. Khushi thinks back on how she thought her marriage was incomplete because of no pheras; today her prince not only fulfilled all the rasams dil se for her, but completed the pheras as well to give her the rightful place before his family and society❤️.

I liked that Garima tried to apologize to him and he said that he does not hold anyone responsible and just wants to move ahead. How relieved must this mother be; the joy reflected on her face, proud of her damad and thrilled for her daughter. Loved Buaji's "aise hi ek dusre ka saath hamesha dena"👍🏼..Amen to that!

The grah pravesh scene was nicely done; glad they remembered the parampara of the dulha picking his wife up and Arnav's "itni bhi chot nahi lagi ki apni wife toh utha na sakoon" was a total awww moment. Welcome home Mr and Mrs Raizada.

Other highlights was ASR's dialogue to Dadi: If you cannot change your thinking and leave the past behind; it is time for you to leave and Shyam's twitching disappointed face throughout. Today for once I did not mind seeing his evil face between the ARHI shots coz it was sweet revenge that the completely in love couple got married in front of him and he and his 1001 evil plans could do nothing to stop it.

Thank you Team IPK for a wonderful wonderful episode and the beautiful marriage ceremony of our favorite ARHI. Excellent dialogues, crisp direction and brilliant performances by all. Special mention to Barun and Sanaya; only brilliant actors like you can make fans world over cry, smile and rejoice the way we are over the union of fictitious characters⭐️⭐️!

Episode starts with the continuation yesterday's scene where Arnav scares all into believing he is calling off the wedding, its too much for Khushi whose already had a difficult day she gets dizzy falling right into his arms. This right here is all Shyam needed to realize Arnav is far from hating his love, he did return for her and this wedding was on!

I loved the looks on everyone's faces when Arnav told Khushi he was ready to marry her, Nani's was the best not only giving her blessings but asking Arnav not to do anything in the future that would hurt Khushi. How sweet can she be? Nani treats Khushi as if she were her own, I just love their bond!!

I had high expectations for Anjali and fortunately she delivered. Anjali did not allow Shyam to manipulate her like he usually does, instead she took off the blinders for once and could see for herself how much Arnav and Khushi love each other and that their love could withstand anything.

Got to thank Shyam for bringing Dadi back, as I did not want to be cheated out of the chance to see things blow up for her as Arnav made it clear he's made peace with his past, has and still does hold his father responsible for what happened and would not punish the woman he loves for the actions of others. He pushed away her hand and told her she was free to go if she couldn't swallow the bitter pill of truth. Way to go ASR, he showed tremendous growth and understanding of his mother's words, beautifully done CVs!

Though Khushi's dream wedding turned into a nightmare, in the end her faith won and she did get her fairytale wedding with her prince charming, complete with the rituals, pheras and blessings of their loved ones who couldn't be happier for them. I just loved the use of IPK title song here, it fit beautifully into the scene.

We got a 360 of the grah pravesh scene, but this time one filled with happiness instead of tension, hatred and pain. Khushi was welcomed the right way with Anjali guiding her, just like she did when she and Khushi first met. The scene with the siblings reminding Arnav about the parampara was too cute, they were all included which I loved. The total aww moment was Arnav telling Khushi "itni bhi chot nahi lagi ki apni wife toh utha na sakoon". What a perfect ending to a fairytale episode!!

It was an episode that will be forever etched in the hearts of fans, one that had many of us thinking was this the end? Nope, far from it, it is a new beginning one that Shyam will surely try to make challenging but he's forgetting this couple loves a challenge and overcame the many thrown their way. Bring it on and hats off to the IPK team for a week full of twists and turns we never saw coming!

Good evening ladies.

Congratulations to you all and to Mr. & Mrs Riazada.

Phew!! I just made it as today was a deadline for me of sorts.

Should I or should I not Keep the Faith ? In this show, in its characters , its creators . And Arnav & Khushi gave me my answer. It is all about Love and Love only . It conquers all. Once you love someone it changes you forever - Love can reduce anyone to anything.

Very much like Khushi's faith in arnav , I too was definite that he will turn up . He is an emotional coward and runs for cover when faced with emotional turmoil but has always been a decision maker. Good or bad, rash or reasonable he does not hesitate to take a stance. His visit to his secret garden and the sight of a tampered rose bought back a memory of his childhood. He makes a decision - Khushi had faith in him and this time he was not going to let her down. "I am standing here because of you because of our love'I am sorry I am late but I had to come right ? Will you marry me ? "

"Mujhey kaate dard dete rahe aur mein phoolo ko sazaa deta raha . Yeh baat mujhey aaj samaj aaye" Arnie finally gets it that that he has been holding on to something of the past that has always hurt him and he has punished himself, the world and Khushi for no reason. He was ready to move on and start a new phase of his life with his partner. At first I was not convinced as to why and how can Arnie let go this feeling of hurt and hatred towards the "other" women and let bygones be bygones but as I spent more time thinking about it , it made perfect sense and that too in his own words "You cannot change the past" but you can do something about the future. Forgiveness is a big healer and the past should be left where it is meant to be ' In the past.

I felt sorry for dadi today as she was the exact person Arnav does not want to become. Bitter and lonely . She continues to burn in her own hell and spitting venom at her own children. Refusing to heed to Khushi's request for her blessings she again blames her for distancing her from her grandson and the family. Was so proud of Arnav when he stood up to dadi "all that matters is that I love Khushi " and also refused to blame Garima for the death of his parents "Your son was the married one and deceived 2 women". "Dadi if you still want to live in the past then maybe you should not be here ' " BRAVO Arnav. I do call that nayi soch . Dadi I am sad for you but you too had a chance to move on but gave up the opportunity.

Ah and THEN !!! The Wedding' I so wanted it to happen ( actually I was fine with the first one as well ) for the right reasons and that is "kaha na mein tunhare bina nahin jee sakta '" and that too without conditions and ill feelings. Arnav giving Khushi her wish for the pheras and all the wedding ceremonies. He looks on lovingly while she sits next to him like a shy bride. My wish for Arnav to be a bigger man came true when he bent to take blessings from Garima clearly saying that we should all move on . I loved him the most at that moment..

It was a lovely episode as my wish was granted . For today I am very Happy to see my favorite Jodi join together in holy matrimony. This is what we have waited for . And I will not complain about a single defect ( which were many by the way ) that will have to wait for another day and neither will I speculate about the future. It is very evident that the story line has changed again but as I said this discussion is for another day.

For now let me enjoy my beautiful ArHI . Till later.
