A love that elevates (updated)

When we first heard that the makers have decided to quick start the "love" track in order to raise TRPs, I was honestly very disappointed. I dreaded the common "love scenes" and "eye-locks" but I had forgotten a very important fact ' this is after all, a Sanjay Leela Bhansali production. How can "love" in his production ever be portrayed as the mediocrity that it has become today. And of course, I am so glad that this has turned out to be no ordinary "love track."

It all started out with one utterance.. "Pyaar!" and a divine embrace of it - All this done with the backdrop of Radha and Krishna's transcendental love. A love that is beyond description and above the demand of possession. Today, they proved that this love story is worthy of the comparison and that too, with such beautiful symbolism!

Kumudsundari's love is just like the water Lily that blooms in mucky soil under the water but rises above it all and gently floats above its surface. The beauty and purity of the flower replaces the muckiness of any lake or pond. Where there's such purity, only love blossoms; there's no space for jealousy, greed, and selfishness.

Jahan vishwas ho, waha jalan nahi hoti..

Aur jahan jalan ho, waha pyar nahi..

Sirf paane ki zidd hoti hai!" ' Kumud

Reminded me of one of the most epic lines of SLB's movies'

"Tumne mujhe pyar karna sikhaaya Samir. Par pyar nibhaana meine apne Pati se sikha" ' Nandini (Hum Dil Dechuke Sanam)

SLB stories are always one step above the conventional definition of "love." It is one thing to feel the love and another to "Be" in love. It remains, forever, a part of you.

Thanks again SLB!

It seemed like Saras has always been in search of enlightenment.. And here it is.. in the form of its symbol.. Kumud - the ever radiant Water Lily :)



Yup! This one's a gonner! šŸ˜†

wonderful topic portraying tonites SaMud's scene.....

i ws absolutely soo touched by the love Kumud hv for Saras...n Saras-he DOES need tht "re-assurance" kinda thing frm her tht she INDEED loves him vry much as much as he loves her...Saras mayb still hv tht fear of losing Kumud in someway or other n so i ws NOT surprised when he literally ended up askin "re-assurance"of her love to him...n wht a way Kumud "re-assured" him..I am way too happy with her..I absolutely agree with her tht his love for her is deeply embedded in her soul so much tht tht love din fade away evn aftr he breakin her heart once by sayin no to their relation... And this ws ENOUGH for Saras to find "solace" in Kumud FOREVER and tht too literally brushin away whtevr insecurities or fear he had...


And hw BEAUTIFULLY he reciprocated such immense love back to Kumud tht her name is now permanently printed in the walls of his heart......

*sigh* these two r so MADLY r in LOVE with each other..And the two kisses Saras gave to Kumud were two wonderful yet passionate & romantic gestures of tellin Kumud tht hw much hes in LOVE with her......

Aaj ka epi STRAIGHT goes to the list of my fav SC epis coz of all these reasons i told above..

That scene set the tone for their love story and their journey.

It is going to be one of a kind. It will be extremely passionate, incomparably intense but at the same time completely unconditional. Forget Indian television, I've not seen an example of love Kumud gave today anywhere else (not in this manner at least). He's embedded in her and there is nothing anyone can do about it, not even her.

From the insecure questions, to the splashing of the water to the laughter and then to the passionate kisses. They're just their own definition of romance <3

Haha.. it goes straight into the list of my favorites as well!! It was so endearing to see the confidence and trust of Kumud's love. On the other hand, it was also very realistic portrayal of Saras' feeling too. He has always been deprived of that Unconditional love after his mother passed away. And now that he has found love, he wants to test it, be assured that she really does love him. His anger was kind of intense though, don't you think? Totally unexpected of Saras but then again, he's not the same Saras anymore, is he? šŸ˜‰ The last pic says it all for me.. lol

Totally agree. We are so used to seeing over-the-top and typical romantic scenes. This portrayal is not just different but the actors take it to another level! I love itā¤ļø

Seriously, after watching this awesomeness no one can help but be a gonner! Words do no justice to how beautiful this story is turning out to be. It would be a shame to watch it become mediocre out of fear of low trps. Hopefully Mr. SLB will maintain the chavi of him that's in my mind! šŸ˜†
