Hey all!! I'm back...😉 Ok, so the last two episodes left me in a bored state and yesterday I was upset about Balaji's kanjoosi in regards to showing Shiv😭. But today... well, if you've watched the episode then you must have realized what compelled me!😉
The episode began on a random note. From what was shown yesterday about Mahen getting a call etc. I must say I did suspect him. Nikhila was always suspicious and she confirmed our suspicions today.
I say random, because I didn't think this Nayonika-Daksh thingy would show up again... well I mean so quickly. Like how does Mahen randomally get info about his brother's whereabouts etc... jasoosi? Hai Ram, Ekta has got to open a detective agency... will be sure to join it myself! 😉
Ok, so back to the story... So I got the feeling that this raaz is definately really deep from Nikhila's desire to go to any extent to hide it. I mean, here she is accusing her husband whom she has spent twenty-five years with, just to keep this secret behind closed doors...
Daksh is... well like Nikhila said, "Disgusting"🤢 Such men just make me want to 🤢... And that Nyonika, has she no shame? Something called self-respect or dignity?🤢
Guys from the scene where Mahen threatens Nyonika if she is seen anywhere near Daksh or his family... That somehow convinced me that poor Mahen has really no clue of his wife's actions. He is unaware of this side of the story and was in fact used as a pawn in the game! Poor guy, when the volcano of truth errupts, it is going to burn him like he never thought possible...
The scene with Nikhila and Gauri after the confrontation with Mahen is something to watch out for, well in my opinion... Gauri's simplicity, her down-to-earth truthful nature is evident where she scolds herself for having suspected the man who hushed the voices maligning her character... Also, notice how Nikhila says, "If I have to ever choose between you or Shiv, I would choose you without a thought..." I know Nikhila is grey-shaded, but is she really evil? What were her intentions? "Zindagi mein kabhi bhi, mein tumhe Shiv se alag hone nahin doongi..." That line of hers, what is the implication? I don't know, but I for some reason don't think she is purely "evil" in the literal sense, it seems as though she has more of grey shades...😕
Okie... so this scene was the ice-breaker... Like most of us had guessed, Nikhila Kapoor is the one pulling the strings in this puppet show. This whole scene brightened the darkness but also left some hanging... Machan was involved in all this?! What did he get out of it?? So Nikhila, Devika, Shashank and Shiv know about this?😕 And Shashank did all of this for money!!🤢 Sick, I always knew he wasn't worth Gauri and now my idea is confirmed!... I don't understand why Mahen said, "In sabh ke peeche Shiv ka haath hai.." What did Shiv do that night to be responsible?... Here again I raise the question of Nikhila's "evilness". She says, "Gauri meri beti hai Shashank, apni palkon pe bitah kar rakthi use. Use is ghar mein kabhi koi takleef nahin hogi..." She just seems to want to hide the "raaz", but has no qualms with Gauri herself. What could it be that made her hatch this masterplan? "Its a very simple thing Shashank... mera khandaan mere liye sab kuch hai. Unki khushiyan mere liye bahut mayene rakhti hai." Obvious from this statement is that whatever this secret is, it threatens the security of her family. Whatever the secret may be, Nikhila played the game for the sake of her family? The next line was simple but means a lot "Gauri apni kismat khud likha ke layi hai, is na tum badal sakte ho.. na mein." Karam Apna Apna. No one can change what is written on her hands as the lines of fate... That means, if she is destined to be Shiv's, nothing can change that... bring on the raaz...
This Devika confuses me to the core... How did she come to know of this secret? And I don't understand if she is so rich etc. then how is it that she does not have enough security in her house to prevent any gundas from entering?😕 And her clothes etc... uh, better not go there😃 This secretary of hers.... She seems to be quite on top of things!
Aah... *sigh* and heres the scene of the day... I feel sorry for Gauri really... but then she gives me the hint that it doesn't matter what the secret is... She already has lost control of herself... Looking at the picture, can anyone tell thier marriage was forced? They look like a happily married couple.😳 The concern Shiv displays at her not having slept yet despite him being late... This is love meri jaan😳 ... The way in which she ran to him, losing herself in him... The way in which she expresses her immense love for him saying that she does not wish to know the secret as all that matters to her is that she loves him more than anything... anyone... The truth of her life she accepts, is that he is her life... This is scene was amazing... Shiv's hesitant hands, is immediate concern.. his pacifying nature... Poor baby, the guilt is just eating him up inside... "Meine apni choti si ek duniya bana li hai Shiv, jisme hum dono ke ilava aur kisi ke liye jaga nahi hai.. Chahe woh shaq ho, ya koi raaz..." Let the truth be opened, let the storm unleash itself... I will pass this test of fate... only to be with you... The purity of these lines reflects the purity of unconditional love... the love experienced by both souls, even if only one accepts it openly... The fact that he cannot meet her in the eye... He knows something that will hurt her... and that coming pain has already begun to eat away at him..
Iqbal is simply fabulous 👏👏 His expressions are so vivid... breath-taking... Regret, shame, guilt, pain, passion... all in one striking glance...👏👏 Him walking away and closing his eyes upon her calling his name... He cannot bear it... The next scene deserves a round of applause... a standing ovation... I was stunned, shaken... emotionally stirred by Iqbal's portrayal of a man broken with each passing moment... Seething in guilt... lost in a world of emotions... struggling with himself... his sentiments... Knowing she means life to him, yet also aware of the consequences of something he perhaps never intended... A game of which he became a player in, and now wants to end... but fears the loss... the thought of facing those big, kohled, innocent eyes... a reflection of himself... Questions which he will have no answer to... "Apne haathon ki rekhaon se rooth jaogi... sach aayega joh saamne toh toot jaogi...Mith jaaye ga ye pyar ka ek pal mein bharam... Tere naam se shuru... tere naam pe khatam... mere pyar ki umar ho itni sanam..." Tears stinging the eyes as if a dream had been broken... A dream he had slowly dared to nurture... Iqbal took my breath away...👏👏
Guruji was suspicious from day one as well and now its confirmed... I'm definately sure now that this has to do with astrology. I mean he said that only this one night... and then Gauri will never find out. Definately, has to do with the kundali... So, Guruji was in on this thing throughout the whole thing... And what is this party about? Man, Ekta's always giving parties!! ... Oh, the precap said its Gauri's b-day tomorrow... and the secret is supposed to be revealed tomorrow... I know Gauri has a strong composure, but by the way this is being shown... She's going to need much more...😕
Devika and Nikhila challenge... Something to watch out for!! How did Devika come to know of this in the first place? "Mere naatin ki shaadi ki bunyaad hi ek jhoot hai..." The basis of SG's relationship is on a lie... what lie?
This "secret" better live up to expectations as it has for long killed us all in suspense... Better not be like what happened in KS with Park Road and Branali Raaz, or SP and the Purani Deordi...
I'm just hopelessly upset about Iqbal leaving... and someone said Shashank's role is going to be extended... Ugh, I can go on about my dissapointment with that but I'd rather enjoy the priceless scenes in today's episodes... For those who have yet to watch it, I highly recommend you do if you're a die-hard Iqbal fan... He stole the show👏 Pallavi was great as usual, but Iqbal shone... Achint Kaur as Nikhila is perfect... the lady has all the right ingredients and is very beautiful!!
Before Iqbal leaves, I hope they show him yearn for her... his eyes crave a sight of her.. and his ultimate acceptance and confession... I can already imagine it from this performance... And Pallavi I know will be perfect as well!👏
Cheers,
