Episode 63
Darkness has special place in this love story, shades of it are used to define the leading male character making him one of the most interesting layered male character EVER, its also made to be the biggest fear of the leading female lead character and the villain of the story embodimeis it. Its the dark aspects of this story that allow the lighter ones to be so appreciative. And in this episode the gradual shift from light to dark is splendidly handled
Things started off bright and sunny, the training of La had begun with Nani's blessing jeeez Naani, can you make it a bit more obvious, which one you prefer?
Also the master plan of Naani is no longer a secret, atleast to Laxmi "you know Laxmi, I really don't care what Khushi teaches Ms.Kasyap, she'll stay as she is, but Khushi name i planted in Khushi's head on perpose, because when Chotey will see Khushi, the curtain will be lifted from his eyes and he'll know what a good indian girl with values really is...they don't call me Naani for nothing!" Though things don't happen exactly that way and ,and something much deeper than a "good Indian girl with values" draws Arnav to Khushi, Nani was the first to envision these two as a couple. Goes to show, regardless of all her differences with her grandson, she understand him, maybe even more that Anjali in some way. There is so much of Nani in Arnav, anger, stubbornness, heart of gold, and finally that saatir dimmag...with such qualities in common, i suppose they are meant to clash😆
Anjali had picked up on Khushi's cold behavior with her, she felt the need to explain her ultimatum, " even he (Shyam) thought i was taking advantage, but it's not like that, i was just thinking of my family separating"
Khushi forgives her right away, "Hum samaj sakte hai (i understand) sometimes we do things for our brother, sister, mom, dad's happiness, sometimes we do things that don't seem right" - another clue to seemingly the darkest night of them all...
Khushi goes on, "i hope that you'll be able to meet my condition without any problems)" we soon learn her condition simple, I won't be here when laad governer is here...but it turns out to be the hardest to keep as she slowly accepts "jab paani mein rehna hai, to uss magar macch ki shakal to dekhni padegi (Since I need to be in the water, i'll have to see that crockidile's face)." For the second time, Anjali tries to explain to Khushi "hamaare bhai itne bhi boore nahi hai (my brother is not so bad)"
"Woh jaise bhi hai, hame nahi jaan na (however he is, i don't want to know)" - At the mere mention of Anjali's brother, Khushi becomes uneasy and flustered with hint of anger. At a deeper level, she wants to know, that's why she's here but on the same token, at a surface level, she is terrified of what she will discover. what a reaction emoted by Sanaya in that 2-second response.
The topic is then changed to rakshabandhan...Khushi mentions she has no brother and Anjali comes up with a brilliant idea, "tie raakhi to my husband" ...this is the best idea out of Anjali after bringing Khushi to train La
Speaking of devil (punt intended), its revealed that not only is he a pathological liar but has a few screws loose in the brainwa, the scene of him talking to an empty chair, priding himself over tricking his wife into getting him the money for Khushi...feels like a dark comedy. He is indeed pure darkness, and a master at keeping everyone around him in his shadow. 
Everyone is enjoying La's first successful mission (mission-tea and pakodas) with khushi's help, Nani brings up Chotey's name and Khushi jumps up like spring "Hamme chalna chahiye (i better go)" she explains her condition to Nani, "when Arnavji comes, i'll leave" (nice to hear his actual name from her lips)"
Ami's alternate scenes😃: wish they played this condition out a bit longer. Khushi working there a few day without his knowledge, but our forgetful Khushi leaves a few things of hers here and there that he comes across and reminds him of her, till one day she forgets something big and has to come back and he catches her...or maybe he see her on the street outside his house bugging the heck out of him... would've made for some gripping episodes, of course for this to be a success, La would have to be in on it
Anajli remembers that he has a video conference and he'll be late, "you can stay longer"...khushi decides to stay.
Finally some Arnav darshan, in his office, actually doing some work...no khushi distractions? what the! Anyway he gets a call that his meeting is canceled.
If the call is canceled, then why am i finding out about it now[DAMMIT!]?
In the dark of the night, Arnav is returning home from work early with a gift for an upset Lavanya, just finished talking to her, she was in the kitchen making dinner and eagerly awaiting his arrival to discuss something important. Soon after he gets a call from the manager who hired Khushi for the sweets, he wanted to know what they should do about Khushi Kumari Gupta's payment?
Nothing registered except her name, Kushi Kumaari Gupta, thunder within, touchy irrational reaction, similar to Khushi's reaction to his name. Rudely interrupting the manager, "tumhare paise mil gaye tumhe? baat khatam (you got your money, convo over!)"
bluetooth violently thrown on the passenger seat and flashbacks shooru : the tirgress a the Guest house, the rain hug followed, lastly his desperate attempt at communication in the storage room.
Enraged, frustrated he reaches his driveway and tell himself again "uss ladki ke baare mein soch na bandh karo" from "Khushi, Khushi, KHUSHI" in sexy husky voice to "that girl "uss ladki," the transformation happened quick. He was also angry both at himself and at that girl. Himself because he is unable to control this chaos within and at Khushi for causing the chaos. A heated passionate argument ensued in their last meeting and later that night he romanced her payal, and when Lavanya wanted to know if there anyone as important as his sister, she came to mind. She shed light into his dark world, he had begun to concentrate more on her thoughts than this painful past. She also dared to defy him which hurt him. He wanted his control back more than ever when he got out of that car outside his home...
A few steps into the house, and he is caught offguard by that wooshing gust of wind, after circling him, it travels back to Khushi in the kitchen. Arnav seems to be an expert at recognizing this feeling by now, but Khushi is still confused about it, she shakes it off and goes back to work,
Darkness takes over as the light goes out and he convinces himself yet again "woh yahaan nahi hai, it's impossible (she is not here)"
Khushi in the kitchen with her greates fear, darkness calls out "hey Devi maiya." while he makes his way into the kitchen "Lavanya, tum phone pe bahot upset lag rahi thi, sab teek hai?"
The darkness alone was probably a better company
Khushi freezes hearing his voice, he walks over and puts his hand on her shoulder, fear and darkness have her tongue.
Arnav on the other hand has been sent into a trans with this connection, Enticement, a bliss of sort, and almost a smile on his face, far away from reality he just takes it in...
Even in the darkness, her light beams through his being 
Khushi having no choice but to turn to him slowly, the darkness quickly disappears allowing Arnav to see her clearly, a glimpse of his true feelings appear on his face at first and the hand remains on the shoulder, but within seconds, his face changes from tender to anger.
This was his chance to gain that control back, with the help of his dark side and he pushes her away the same way pushed after the rain hug, she got way to close to him, he just wants her away.
Khushi looks at her abandoned shoulder and immediately took notice to the difference his behavior from their recent meetings. This side she hadn't seen since the day he sent her to the guest house. A hint of blaming herself as she looks on without uttering a word.
"DI!" Arnav yells out for Anjali, he knows she had something to do with bringing her here
Lavany runs in, "ASR, what are you doing home .."
Arnav doesn't give her a chance to finish "Lavanya, tum beech me mat bolna! (you stay out of this)" [La was never really allowed in the middle of these two, even Khushi didn't allow her to take the resignation letter and Arnav is not allowing it now]
He looks back at Khushi, "out"
Khushi looks at him, helplessly watching the return of the rakshas (monster) she knew him before all these unknown feelings came about.
She look heart broken, even though it easier with him being this way, a sense of loss in her eyes. ASR emerges but this time he is a defense not an offence. He desperately wants her out, out of his house, out of his mind, out of his heart so he can gain his normalcy back. His only chance is the darkness of ASR, hate her, insult her, show no mercy...what he doesn't realize is that in due time, darkness has to give way to the light 😉
DOOL CORNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
❤️ ALL OF THESE, Arnave in pure bliss 😳❤️
