There is a movie called Crazy, Stupid Love. One would wonder how and why they got such a foolish name for a movie... but for me, that is what I think love is sometimes. Crazy and Stupid! Love doesnt have to be sensible, it is not always logical, it doesnt always have the right answer to give you, it doesnt always make you feel great, But its fun, its crazy, its stupid...
And so is my love for ArVi. My crazy, stupid love. This post is not based on any moral grounds, nor any logical arguments. When one reads it, it may not even be articulate, eloquent or structured. So, if you think that I should follow any logical, realistic means, then sorry - this is the wrong post.
Crazy as it is, my love for ArVi still exists... and I realised that tonight as I watched the QH Mahasangam episode. No thoughts came to mind about who bought Purvi's sari, I did not wonder who Pari was with, I didnt care who provided transportation money for them all to go to Bhopal. All I had was a feeling, a feeling of joy, love and a sense of satisfaction as I saw Arjun and Purvi together in one frame! One frame with decent clothes on, one frame with smiles on their faces, one frame with love still shining in their eyes.
Mahasangams as all soap watchers would and should know are not logical and dont always make sense, and they certainly dont follow the line of the script. So with that said, here are the illogical things that made my crazy, stupid love raise its insensitive head:
The darkness, dance, pull, spin, smile moment - Arjun (what a fabulous dancer he is, thats why Zee uses him for all their Maha specials) went into the darkness, with no light, no vision and just with a touch, pulled his Purvi forward. Even in the darkness (read: dark corners of Arjun's heart) - he can pull Purvi into the light and smile again.

ArVi eyelock - Haiii haiii!!! What a moment. Yes, not needed! Yes, it didnt fit into the story - but boy oh boy, it brought back moments and memories. Thats love... when it can evoke emotions in you that you didnt think you still had. ArVi eyelock for me showed that love still exits between them, no matter how many adversities they face. The way they looked at each other showed that no matter what soils they are buried in, mud they are rolled in, garbage they are tossed to, when they look at each other, all the dirt evaporates to leave only the goodness of true love.

The shower of flowers - I remember going to a vivah sanskaar once and the bride and groom were showered in flowers as blessings from the people there and from God himself. Tonight, so were Arjun and Purvi. The slow fall of flowers on them was a blessing.(to me) Whether it was just for the moment or whether it is the 1st moment of many more to come remains to be seen. But, that one moment in time was good enough for now.
Last but not least - the touch
. The touch of hands showed that no matter how far removed from each other they are emotionally or otherwise, one touch can still have a tremendous impact on them!
There is this saying "I haven't understood a bar of music in my life, but I have felt it (Igor Stravinsky). Likewise, "I haven't understood a bar of ArVi's love, but I have felt it" - Ash
So PR fans, ArVi fans, ArVi non-fans, that's it for me - not sure if its all crazy, its all stupid, its all relative... but I do know, its all LOVE 😊

Wah Wah Ash! 👏
Loved loved loved your metaphor on the darkness to light ..just superb 😊

Sadiyaan samaa gayi iss ek pal mein ( movie:Lakeer)
(Eras have been encapsulated in this one moment)
The trajectory of Arjun's smile when Purvi appears in his arms to his wistful look when she leaves encompasses those gazillion moments from the beginning of ArVi time to the present:
- the first meeting
- the recalcitrant raindrop
- the carefree love
- the betrayal
- the careful love
- the love lost
- the love revisited and then packed away consciously
- Pari

I enjoyed every moment of this MS, yes, even the pink clad woman standing guard in front of Purvi, put there explicitly for the spectacular ArVi moment. And when it could not have possibly gotten better, for seriously don't expect much these days, the aesthetically done flower shower (yes Sheets, any kinda rain will do at this point). Ok, so it's been done before ...but every couple brings their own energy to such scenes ...and I was not disappointed.
(Was cringing mentally for the cleanup required for Purvi's nest though 😛)

In the recent past, we all have observed times when Arjun supported Purvi and her choices, no matter what. We have seen Purvi covet a family with Arjun and Pari something bad. We have seen the defeated look on Arjun's face when Manav read him the riot act and gave him prem gyaan ...a tad bit too late. Recently seeing Arjun struggling to convince himself more than his dad that he is keeping tabs on Onir for the well being of Purvi and Pari and Purvi having to make choices between Pari and Pari's papa and her duties to the family, there is only one conclusion I draw..there will always be that invisible dor (string) that binds them to each other, a dor which transcends any script.
And today seemed like a culmination of months of ArVi apart. Today, it was about them and them alone. It may lead to new beginnings ( oh I fervently hope it does ). If it doesn't, I am happy to live in these moments knowing and seeing that as much as our wonderful writers may try to force a square peg into a round hole, a discordant tune is going to do jack for the pied piper, either with rats or with children 😊

Today, I step carefully into the future, with a smile on my lips, an arvian twinkle in my eye and a prayer in my heart.😳

Haven't watched this show in months but one little scene between Arjun and Purvi and I remember why I felt the tug of heart strings so strongly back then.

In two seconds during that ArVi eyelock I was back at the temple on Shivratri one year ago!

These two have something magical and innocent about them and it doesn't matter where they are in the story of their lives Arjun and Purvi are end game.

Arjun and Purvi will always be a Pavitra Rishta for me!

Let me start off my saying ''Once a true Arvian,always a true Arvian.''

What its been like months since we have gotten a thread opened by you so you know i had to comment😃 .

PR MS episode with QH and Dastaan was a very nice one when it came to Arjun and Purvi.

I havent seen Arjun smiled or laugh or dance or even joke around like he used to in the Good old Arvi days.Today i didnt have a headache or have the urge to bang my head on a wall when watching PR.

I missed PURVI.The one in the salwars and the one with the real hair.Bedsheets,wig has got to go back to Kolkata.

I have watched Crazy,Stupid Love and though the name sounds weird there is a huge message behind it.

Yes love is crazy...we do the strangest things to make our loves happy and to be with them.We go against ourselves and yet its seems perfectly fine with us.

we dont think twice before doing something which in turn makes us look stupid because instead of rationalizing we just act.

Love is not a compromise its a commitment to be with the one we love.Maybe Arvi are not together in body but who are we to question if they arent together in soul?

Today's episode was very nostalgic for me.It brought back so many memories that were stored away in my Arvi heart.

From the unintentional run in on the dancefloor to the eyelock...maybe not giving me goosebumps as before but i felt something.How i missed Arjun's stares.Whenever i watched a Hindi film and two people are showered with flowers then its a good sign that they are blessed from God.Isnt love a test??''The course of true love never did run smooth''.But if it always finds it way back to the lovers then what more can we want??Arvi's chemistry and history is a legend from upto September.Whatever happens afterwards happened but i dnt give too much importance of things that dont matter.Life is challenge...we never agree to it but have to accept it.

"I love her and that's the beginning and end of everything (AK to Purvi)

For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it

Money can't buy love, but it improves your bargaining position

"One of the hardest things in life is having words in your heart that you can't utter

"Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning.

To the world you may be just one person, but to one person you may be the world

Oh Ash - thank you for this thread!

Even while watching the episode - not much fangirling went on during the Arvi scenes - I feel like I fell in love with Arjun and Purvi again 😳

AGREED ON YOUR FIRST POINT TO THE MAX! Not to mention the fact that basically everyone in India attended that wedding and of course Arjun finds Purvi 😆 I don't know - I feel like his heart led him to her - the heart, just like love, does some crazy, stupid things 😛

The eyelock was just so intense and filled with emotion. I don't know if it's the right time to say this or not, but hats off to Rithvik and Asha for playing these characters so well! The watery eyes, the shock, the love - it was a total treat to see and a great reassurance to Arvi's love. (Even though there was no doubt from most of us 😊)

The flowers were the most memorable for me - I'm at a loss for words at that scene! I agree, that was totally a blessing. Haha, it seemed to be a substitute for the typical rain 😛 The hand touch... oooh, I don't know who felt more sparks and tingles - Arjun and Purvi or ME?! I went crazy at this scene. Their love hasn't died down one bit!

Arjun's thoughts... ooh that was perfection! A total unneeded confirmation of his love for her - he was only there for HER, to protect her, to save her marriage and relationship despite his feelings! Talk about crazy! 😉

Wonderful, beautiful, amazing post! 👏😳
Exactly! Love is crazy, stupid, senseless but its still love!
It defies logic, defies right and wrong, defies morality and society etc. etc.
Its a heady sensation like falling...off someplace high with no safety belt. 😆
Loved ur description of Arjun pulling her out of the darkness just by instinct...its so natural that he would do so...I wish to see some light in the darkness of their lives.
And as for all the mess they are in, it doesnt matter, all it matters is whether we look at the mud or the lotus thats blooming in the mud.
