A MOUNTAIN OF JALEBI (kushi)
GH- Kushi is in the kitchen frantically making and eating jalebi as she is remembering all the incidents between her and ASR.😡 From the first time she met him she could see in her mind's eye😕 the runway fall into his arms and how he broke her pearl dori threatening her, and him ripping her dupatta, and him letting go of her hand and her falling on the boxes in the office and finally the incident in the guesthouse and him holding on to her wrists and pinning her up against the wall. All these nightmares (memories) were piling up in her mind😕😡😕 just like the mountain of jalebi she was frying up. Beautiful, yummy jalebi, a delicate pastry fried up in oil and coated with a simple syrup'.not so when Kushi made them. They were made whenever she was worried, angry😡 or upset. She would make the batter and FLING it into the cloth and then frantically make her circular coils rapidly, vigorously and angrily. She wouldn't stop until her anger dissipated or she ran out of ingredients. Whichever came first and usually she ran out of ingredients. She would also eat them as she was cooking them. She loved jalebi it was her favorite dessert😛, although she enjoyed all sweets, but this one just made her happy😆. Funny how one dessert could affect a person in different ways.😡😆
TURN, TURN, TURN (arnav)
RM- Anjali and ASR in Chote's Room. Chote has his back turned to Di. He turns around and Di says, "Kya?What? How could you do that?" She questioned him like he was a little boy. She was stern and concerned. "How could you?" "Di, I didn't know!" 😳 He turns back. (In this scene, Arnav just kept turning his back, I believe he did it between 3-5x unable to face his Di and unable to face himself and what he has done). She continues, "Why do you bother her so much?" "I don't know why," he replies. She again reprimands him, she continues that he is the ruthless ASR😈 who puts up this front but she knows better she can see her brother's eyes and she can read his thoughts through them. He is worried she can see that, even if he denies it a million times. "Chote, we have been through a lot", she starts, he tries to turn away from her again but she won't let him. She holds on to his wrist, she is his support❤️. She is with him. "We have been hurt.💔" He looks hurt like that little boy. "We have been wronged. But it is in the past. Haven't I told you, not to let the past affect your future!" (We will hear this again at a later date!). He turns away again and tells her," I am not stuck in the past and I create my own destiny." She walks around to face him. "You have lost yourself on the way of creating your destiny. Why can't you show your feelings in your heart?👍🏼❤️ I know you are worried about Kushi. It has affected you."
He lifts his scarred hand, the hand that held her slight wrist so forcefully that it broke the bangle that injured both of them.😭 Their blood intermingled, their destinies intertwined, like a gypsy wedding bound for life. (Thanks, Sigrid, all credit to you for that). Yes, it HAS affected him.💔
"She could have died. How was she when you took her home?" "Unconscious", he said. "And now?" she asked. "I don't know."
"You need to find out, I'll call her home." She said "I don't care." He answered.
What a crock! That is like eating a mountain of jalebi with no sugar and no syrup. You just can't'if I said it was delicious, I would be lying just like him!!!😉
GH- Mountain of Jalebi con'td. Kushi is still in the kitchen making mountains of jalebi frantically working and eating😡. Buaji, Payal and Shyam watching. Shyam asks what is she doing and Payal answers that when Kushi is worried she makes jalebi. Buaji asks her if she is going to feed a wedding procession because there are so many jalebi there that they are overflowing, enough to feed a banquet. The phone rings. Payal goes to answer and Buaji is still worried about "the glutton". Shyam says not to worry he is here and he will take care of it. AGAIN! This man what doesn't he do?
Payal answers the phone to find Anjali on the other end all concerned. Payal wasn't very nice to her, asking her are they calling Kushi to work all night again and Anjali says 'no, I was worried and I am apologizing', Payal says Kushi is fine and hangs up. Buaji is like what is with that family 'one teases and hurts her and the other asks how she feels'.
Anjali tells ASR Payal is very upset and that sisters have to take care of their younger siblings especially when they are upset. Chote says , he 's not upset and didn't ask and Anjali says you don't have to ask your eyes do. (We all know how well Barun/ Arnac communicates with his eyes!!!). He looks down. "Don't worry, Kushi is OK." "I don't care." He replies. He walks away and Anjali smiles. He may not be able to eat that mountain of jalebi but Di certainly can!
Shyam asks Payal who called and she says Anjali. Shyam looks away. There is always a question in the air with Shyam when any of the Raizada's are mentioned or if any of their cars are in the neighborhood. Hmmm, fishy?😕
Buaji has called Kushi the Jalebi Machine and is still concerned because she hasn't stopped. She doesn't want to worry her parents and doesn't want Kushi to know that the Raizada's have called to worry her some more.
Shyam now enters the kitchen and does his smooth talking and for some reason he actually gets Kushi to stop making the jalebi with some of his philosophy. He suggest for her to forget the negative and think positive and see how good the jalebi actually taste! He hands her a jalebi and she tentatively takes it from his hands and eats it. (I almost feel like she is cheating on ASR).
Buaji says ,"I believe God has sent Shyam him for a purpose, like to master this crazy girl."👏
With the mountain of jalebi sitting on the counter, Payal takes Kushi to bed.
Shyam says to Buaji that he saw her so worried and that is the least I can do for this family. She blesses him.⭐️
RM- Nani, Anjali and Mami. Again the discussion of Lavanya and ASR. Mami thinks ,"Lavanya is better than Kushi, NO?" Nani knows what she has to do since Arnav is stubborn and once she makes a decision it is final. Uh, oh what is she up to? She leaves. Mami- the quiet before the storm!
GH- Payal is trying to put Kushi to sleep but she just can't. Everytime she closes her eyes she relives the guesthouse incident especially him holding her wrists.😳 She is visibly upset.😕😡 Payal is so concerned and says this is all her fault because she let her work. Kushi says she has a contract and Payal doesn't care about that she will not work there,😡 she was upset all day and Kushi doesn't want her parents to find out because they will worry. Kushi go to sleep!!!! No more making mountains of jalebi tonite!
Next day Buaji on the phone with papaji and she proceeds to tell him about the mountain of jalebi Kushi made, so he knew his daughter was worried, but everything is all right Shyam was there. He took care of everything, he handles Kushi and she won't go over his word. Thank God for Shyam⭐️, Buaji thinks. (we know better though)
RM- Akash asks his brother ASR didn't you sleep all night? Of course he didn't! His guilt kept him up all night he would have been better off putting himself into a diabetic coma eating the mountain of jalebi!😛
The brothers walk down the steps into the living room and lo and behold sits Nani, Mami and the priest with a family with a proposal for him! 🤢
Quick get the mountain of jalebi the wedding procession is here!😡
