in pink. 🤣 i was scared stiff that he would become arnav mallik after discovering that daddy was a good guy. actually,. it was all chacha's plan. also, he would start visiting the temple every day with his love of life. ved raj was the original writer and he created lovely characters. khushi was given star plus good girl bits without dousing her with it. but of course all that got destroyed. they didn't take away asr totally, but how they messed with his gussa. bludgeon that and you don't really have the man. in fact i am still wanting to hear the bg of that anger. so hot. i am ajeeb as you can probably tell by now.

actually, had khushi taken love tips from buaji, that chameli ka tel... 🤣 🤣 🤣 well they got him into not at all sexy white embroidered kurta. haven't these guys heard of the hotness of khadi white kurtas?

chalhov, horizon,

lovely saturday morning post. so true and so touching, what horizon's father says about words being salt in pickle. and what salt makers we have had in our films. poets that were often activists, serious thinkers, or even social misfits. but their words. those just stay. there's not a feeling on earth they haven't touched upon and made us get closer to. i used to think finding a hindi song to match practically any and every situation, was a sign of my filminess. but now i know it's a testimony to the writers' intuition and art. i don't think in any culture such a peculiarly precious body of work exists. of course, you have the sublime here and the utterly pedestrian or ridiculous too, but really there's not a situation in life for which a good, beautiful, hindi gaana can't be found. and so many brilliant writers working with music directors to create music that makes one forget everything. loved your songs, i don't know manzilon pe lootata but the words are lovely (what i can understand, that is), ok, mera wala ganaa. strangely, all by gulzar. i didn't know, happened that way.

some of these feelings between them ever since that forced marriage and all the searing and seething within, especially as he leaves:
kash aisa ho tere qadmo se, chun ke manzil chale aur kahi door kahi
tum gar saath ho, manzilo ki kami to nahi
tere bina zindagi se koyi, shikwa, to nahi
tere bina zindagi bhi lekin zindagi toh nahi

jee mein aata hai, tere daaman mein, sar jhuka ke ham rote rahe, rote rahe
teri bhi aankho mein, aansuo ki nami to nahi


of course, this one, again and again, moments of ipk say this to me, the song that inspired its very name. :
ham ne dekhi hai in aaankhoon ki mahakati khushaboo
haath se chhuuke ise rishton kaa ilzaam na do
sirf ehasaas hai ye ruuh se mahasuus karo
pyaar ko pyaar hi rahane do koi naam na do

ham ne dekhi hai
pyaar koi bol nahin, pyaar aavaaz nahin
ek khaamoshi hai sunati hai kahaa karati hai
naa ye bujhati hai naa rukati hai naa thahari hai kahin
nuur ki buund hai sadiyon se bahaa karati hai
sirf ehasaas hai ye, ruuh se mahasuus karo
pyaar ko pyaar hi rahane do, koi naam naa do
ham ne dekhi hai

some part of the story kept reminding me of:
in reshami raahon men ik raah to vo hogi
tum tak jo pahunchati hai is mod se jaati hai
is mod se jaate hain

Episode 87-88:

"I don't care, jo bhi hai utta kar bahaar phek do"

it was too, as always she had found her way to him with out permission. She wasn't just "jo bhi (anyone)" anymore is she?...At one time this "jo bhi" girl didn't make a difference, when she similarly barged into one of his meetings which bought everyone to their feet except him, he sat still, kept his calm...

my how things have changed...Today everyone else sat there calmly while he was rattled up merely at her sight...no time wasted before he aggressively makes his way to her. One thing that has stayed the same however is Khushi's "Darti hai par Karti hai (She's scared but gets things done)" attitude. The fear on her face can be seen miles away, but she's here with a purpose: Bring the two hearts back together.

She apologizes for daring to call him wrong for whatever he is doing to Lavanya and before she can finish telling him about La's plans to leave, he interrupts her

"Khushi Kumaari Gupta"

Interesting how he always makes things about Khushi where La is concerned, consistently since the day after the contract was signed, La came in thanking him for the designer bag he gifted her but he was completely drowned in Khushi, although his thoughs then were more about beating her to win the contract, the aloofness was ever present.

I feel for La who loves Arnav unconditionally in every sense. she has seen and noticed Arnav's out of character behavior with Khushi but has chosen to ignore it, not to mention his slip-of-toungue with Khushi name instead of hers. Regardless of all that, she goes running back to him the moment he shows up today because she was holding on to something with great hope as many people inn real life do, that's the beauty of her character, she's very real just unlucky in love.

ok back to the episode

..with full "haq" rights, he takes her by the hand and pulls her to his office, He seems to enjoy these tight grips on her, his attempt to keep things under control and/or maybe even his secret desire of having her comes out in the only way he knows how...anger

"millions depend on this conference" teeth clenched, he scolds her for barging in anywhere with her nonsense "Everything that you don't say is not nonsense" She pries herself free from his hand (another words he loses the control😆), urgency in her voice,."I don't know about money, but what i came here to tell you is even more important, Lavanyaji is leaving the country...this very evening"

For one second, the news shocks him, yes he would miss her, but again it was just for one second before his very cold "haan to(so?)" Sobti at his mean arrogant best here, the cold eyes, harsh look on his face...uff!

This scene begging a comparison to the one in the storage room where she tells him she is leaving for Lucknow also "hamesha ke liye"...his reaction was "tum aise nahi ja sakti, khushi, khushi! KHUSHI!!!" screaming after her like she took breath of life with him and how that moment played in his head like a broken record countless times for days...even in his sleep he woke startled at the mere thought...the new of La leaving just doesn't garner that response from him. His reaction to his long time girlfriend leaving for good is incomprehensible by Khushi "To matlab? appko koi farq nahi padta? she loves you Arnav ji, and you also"

Again he cuts her off before she could finish how he felt for La, "Whatever was between us, its over...and you can get out" Khushi stood there stunned...the ever so romantic girl never heard of such fickle love that can't end with two words, she refuses to believe it now"just by saying "its over" doesn't change the relations ship that existed...this can't be true love"

"your used to training people, now you'll teach me what love is?" he spouts back -had to laugh at this line because the answer is yes, she will teach him a thing or two about love. When the contract is coming close to the end,KHushi leaves the RM to wean herself away from him "Sab kuch aise hi khatam kar dogi?" ...then he'll be the one telling her it all just can't end with "its over"

"Did you every even love her? no, you were lying because people who love can never do this" maybe that's why Lavanyji is leaving and it makes no different to you"

"haan nahi padta farq (It doesn't make a difference!!) By lavanya leaving, it only proves what i say is true...that two people can't stay together their whole life, they change with time and move on, Lavanya can go mujh usse koi farq nahi padta! (it doesn't make any difference to me!)" what a powerful line, again he gives her a beam into himself and his reasoning that others seldom see. The tragedy of his parents and their marriage once again comes to mind here. the "farq nahi padta" s start with a bang, bluntly being used here to compare the farq made by La's leaving Vs. Khushi's tears

Khushi seem heartbroken, sure for La but also for herself, she had fallen for him, there has to be a part of her that want to believe this man is capable of real love. Ofcourse deep down she know he is, she's has seen that side of him despite her lack of acknowledgement of it. Khushi tells him that La was crying "she doesn't know this side of you, she prob thinks"

"nahi hai dil ASR ke seene mein, yehi kehna chahti thi na? aur accha hai ki nahi hai (ya, ASR doesn't have a heart!!! is that what you were trying to say?)" A direct response to all those names suggestive of him being a monster...he truely feels she thinks this way of him and it hurts him to no end... its like he's saying "Thats what you think about me right?"

He goes on to insult her, again turning the whole thing towards Khushi accusing her of being fake and it doesn't go unnoticed by her "aap baat ko kahan se kahn le kar aaye (where are taking this conversation?)"

After justifying his insults, he yells for security ...but his harsh face quickly melts at the sight of his biggest weakness, her tears.

She shows herself out, his melted eyes watch her painfully,

and as she passes by, his eyes close enduring all the pain...

She turns back for him, and he returns the look making no attempts to hide his pain...there is no way she missed that big dil(heart) in ASR's "seena"(chest).

Coming down from his office still feeling guilty and asks DM for guidance at the sight of a plant, an idea pops into her head " the only thing that laad governor likes"...but where to get the money?

her eyes fall on her prized possession, her kangan, no second thoughts about selling it, in fact she smiles at the thought of buy plants for the man that just insulted and kicked her out of his office...

Arnav walks into his office to the surprise of all the plants and a note,

"ASR, mein jaanti hoon ki aap iss plant se kitna pyaar karte hai, mein bhi aapse itna hi pyaar karti hoon, I love you, I'm sorry, please mujhe rok lijiye nahin to mein pahaad se kud kar apni jaan de dungi"

hehe, that last part has Kushi Kumaar Gupta's dramabaazi written all over it...Akaash will thank her for it one day, but Arnav seems to believe its a genuine one from La...Maybe he was too touched by the gesture...her writing that she loves him as much as he loves those plants, those plants that he connects to his mother...maybe La gets him he thought. He did care for her and he did tell his family that if La wants to come back she will do it herself and here she has apologized. He may not know these plants and the note were from Khushi, but his whole being is only connecting him with her thoughts. Putting the note down, he leans back on his chair, eyes closed...

"aapne kabhi bhi unse pyaar kiya bhi tha?(Did you ever love her?)" her tear-filled voice asks him, images of khushi crying...they startle him back into opening his eyes.

"Her effect on him is scaring him kyu uski aakhon ke aansso mujhe pareshaan kar rahe hai? kyu main usse rota hua nahi dekh sakta?" only a split second between that though and his hand slamming his hand on his desk letting out some frustrations "Dammit!" his helplessness against her tears well reflected on his face...again it became about Khushi despite La's name on that letter.

At La's place, Khushi tells La "hame pura vishwaas hai ki ArnavJi aayenge, hamme yekeen hai (I have full trust that he will come, I 'm certain)"just then Khushi "vishwaas" and her "yekeen" and of course her tears pulls him in "ASR?" La asks in disbelief

a twinkling smile on both La and Khushi's face. But Its Khushi's smile that made his face glow, after all that's why he was here, does he even realize that??

he must, but his ego is too big to give in yet.

Khushi watches La run into his arms, that big smile still intact...brought these two together again... La hugs Arnav tightly while he stands there limp for a second...amazing music to set the dramatic scene and the camera work is magnificent. Khushi smile slowly disappears as Arnav wraps his right hand around La, then slowly the left...

Khushi's face goes pale. Its happened twice before, but today this feeling digs deep inside her letting out a tear she can't control, in fact only notice by her after it rolls down her cheek, too numb to feel it she catches it in her hand and asks it a million questions..

if only the tear could talk. Utter sadness, that feeling of losing a piece of herself while standing there helpless. La still in his arms, his attention diverts to Khushi, he recognizes that look from the other two times but today he feel the magnitude as well.

She looks back at his questioning face, there was nothing more to hide, she was being exposed without a clue how to stop it, she quickly makes her way out of there while Arnav watches.

He carried that look of hers all the way home with him, while the whole family(with the exception of Nani) takes delight ing La's return,

Arnav sneaks off to his room to be alone with her thoughts trying to make sense of that tear...or did he already know there are bigger things at play?

In a parellel scene, Khushi asks DM "yeh kyu ho raha hai? hum pareshaan kyu hai? aakhir hamaare kehne pe hi to...hamme to khushi hona chahiye (What's happening to me, why am i upset? afterall i was the one that,i should be happy)" a slight smile picturing La's happiness but is wiped away at the thought his arms around her "jab woh dono saath...pata nahi hamme kya..hum pareshaan kyu hai? (When those two are together...don't know what, why am i ?)" she asked similar questions after she handed him her resignation, LOL, poor girl, his effect on her seems to only bring more confusion to her.

Its La's return back at the RM but its Khushi who makes a bigger dent in his wall of ASR. Once again without realizing, he is metaphorically calling out for Khushi instead of Lavanya. He is just too engulfed in Khushi to realise his unfairness towards La. When La's purpose will be fulfilled, once again Khushi's name will slip out instead of hers, but that time he will see the pain in La's eyes and set her free. On Khushi's side, as naaive as she is about love, her feeling for him have surfaced in full force with that tear...if he was the first to fall for her and the first to feel her aura, she will be the first to hear the dhak dhaks that will only get louder and louder till they both give in.

Drool Corner!!!!!!

^^^ horizon,

it's a team of almost 10 writers, each taking charge of something, i think that gets a serial together. then you have inputs from gul, nissar, channel, and all sorts of people, including freelance writers who work on scenes when needed and when writers are caving in undr the pressure. i can sense it's not exactly a happy place to write if you are a writer. ha ha, commercial writing at its most cantankerous. i am copywriter in a not too large agency and it's crazy enough. good ideas invariably lost. so if in the midlle of that they got anything right i'm grateful enough. and we got the talent of barun and sanaya to take it a higher. in fact, maybe because these two did thise characters they came to life in the first place.

someone in the group had a way with plot and the little gimmicks of closing of loops, etc., that made watching interesting, someone certainly had insight into the nature of this feeling called love and took it beyond corny. the dialogue writers in my opinion were gifted. screenplay had a stylish feel and managed to avoid feeling thobby as most of our serials do. i look for the moments that remain killers despite many problems, and every day something pops up. i also realise the reason people hungered for asr khushi segments is because they wer the best written. the others had a bit of a sameness, though mami was always used well. it's the shyam bits that feel like a drag, sort of crass, and too full of the expected serial villain nonsense.

khushi. sadly, the woman is much maligned on indian tv. the constant devi making, what a sick way to keep us "managed." so we have a long chain of heroines who are constantly setting parivaars right, no personal lives or ambitions of their own. i think khushi had to be made interesting because they asked themselves what sort of a girl will asr be attracted to.

so along came a different girl, but somehow she never became precious enough to anyone for them to enter her character for its own sake. so once this character had done the job of making asr feel his feelings, along came her good bahu job, reason for existence being to make her fam's life alright. slay asuras, set everyone straight, but never ask herself, who am i? what do i want?

thanks to sanaya's abilities and the dialogue writers we have a real girl happening. but as i watch the current dhakdhak episodes it strikes me as odd that khushi never identified that feeling as attraction. she who understood so much, never understood this?

but the joy is asr's bg still plays.
