Episode 280 Discussion - EOD Summary

Superstar RK bun gaya chef to impress his biwi Madhu; gifts a yellow salwar suit to his private sunshine (aka Madhu)

Events Of The Episode

1. RK and Madhu are still in the bath tub. Madhu asks him to go and start the music. She takes the bath while RK goes out and plays some music on the stereo. Madhu gets in the mood to dance on that song. She is dancing happily in the bathroom in a pink bath robe and RK happens to watch her sneakily chupke chupke from the door. He leaves just in time before Madhu can notice him. Madhu comes out and finds a letter from him. The letter instructs her to wear a salwar suit which is a gift from him just for his private sunshine and come to the dining table.

2. In the kitchen, RK is busy cooking. He is also talking to Bittuji asking what should he gift Madhu. He suggests to advertise in tv, radio media etc and ask for 4 gift suggestions and the lucky winners get a chance to participate in RK-Madhu wedding. Bittuji informs Radhaji of RK's cooking efforts who is very amused. Bittuji is busy overseeing mehendi function preparations. At the dining table, RK informs Radhaji that he has made breakfast for Madhu. He serves Madhu and asks her to give him her honest opinion. Madhu takes a bite and praises his cooking. RK is happy to hear this and takes a bite himself. He practically chokes on it and declares it as disgusting. He asks Madhu why she ate it and she says because he has made it for her. Following RK's example Sikki cooks for Dipali but she refuses to eat it.

3. In the chawl, Trishna attempts to dissuade Padmini from hiring Sultan to kidnap Madhu. She tells Padmini that Madhu is old enough to take decisions in her life and Padmini has taught them enough to trust them to lead life their own way. Padmini however staunchly refuses to listen to Trishna and informs her that she will go to any length to protect her children.

4. In RK mansion, Radhaji gifts Madhu a salwar suit to wear for the mehendi function. She informs Madhu of her unsuccessful attempts to reach Padmini. Madhu assures her that when Padmini sees Madhu happy, she will come around. Radhaji informs Madhu that Madhu can rely on her for emotional support even if Padmini does not participate in these rituals. Madhu gets emotional. RK interrupts them saying Madhu will not wear what Radhaji has given her.

5. RK and Madhu have a quite a delightful nok-zok on whether Madhu should listen to RK or Radhaji. RK pouts cutely refusing to talk to Madhu since she is not listening to him. Madhu tries to manao him. RK tells her that just like she made him confess his love for her in public, she needs to confess her love in public as well, then woh maan jayega. Madhu decides to do what he asks by following her own technique.

Was expecting a better follow-up to payalia 😳 But RK cooking for his Biwi somewhat made up for it 👍🏼 Isn't it strange how easy it is to bring the sweetness back in a relationship even after so much bitterness - they only had to put their egos aside and open their hearts sincerely 👏

Chalo, yet another light-hearted episode... Enjoy till it lasts... The other shoe is going to fall very soon i guess...

CR, that's actually always been true of both Madhu and RK.
When it comes to each other, nothing they say or claim matters more than each other.
Even during the time when his mother (and the Mallicks-Chaudharys and Bhatias) was at Balraj's mercy along with Madhu, his concern and focussed attention was only on Madhu's peril.
And Madhu knew Shamsher had almost died and her family had suffered because of RK. But she wouldn't even consider forgiving Shamsher for harming RK until RK himself persuaded her to.
For either of them, you put the other in one scale and every other person they care about in the other, it won't even be noticeable.

Was actually a bit relieved during yesterday's episode when Madhu decided to not tell Padmini about her change of intention.
Yes, it would be more prudent for her to tell her mother, because contrary to the dream, Madhu has a 100% trackrecord of always getting her way with her mother if she's truly determined about something.
But the fact that her mother's opinion can never make her waver from her own firm decisions is not something Madhu consciously admits to.
The only person whose decisions and opinions Madhu has *actually* considered and changed her own for has been RK, never Padmini nor anyone else.
And when it comes to RK, his wellbeing and his love for her, Madhu does not tend to hesitate in prioritizing above all others - be that Shamsher, Radha, or Padmini. She will not risk the person and the relationship that matters most to her out of thought for the feelings of the other people she loves dearly. She would easily give up her life for any of them, but she would also turn away from them - albeit temporarily - with disregard for their feelings if she feels it needed to preserve the one who matters more to her than all of them.
She would have left Shamsher unforgiven despite having adored him her whole life, because he tried to kill RK and regardless of the other side of the situation. She would have left with RK - temporarily, but for as long as he needed - without even telling Radha. So there is perhaps no extreme Madhu may not go to if she feels it's needed to preserve her relationship.
The difference between her and RK in this one point is that he is far more overt in announcing a ruthless decision but may be swayed from it toward some leniency, whereas Madhu is far more resolved, makes her decision unilaterally without informing the person or persons most directly affected by that decision, and then forges ahead with the certainty that what she is doing is necessary.
Since she doesn't have the conscious arrogance to admit even to herself that her mother is invariably malleable when faced by Madhu's stubbornness, she chooses instead to keep her mother out of the loop until she has secured her happiness with RK.
The happiness of having her mother involved in the happy occasion may perhaps seem less than the worry that her mother's presence would mar or prevent the happy occasion.
Better that Padmini be absent from the scene than that she be present as a source of worry. She can be coaxed to stop worrying after the occasion is well completed.
Unfortunately, Padmini has already chosen to act on her worry with the most insensible course of action she might have chosen and not a hint of understanding.
First, she didn't realize the possible adverse repercussion if Madhu did successfully get revenge. Now she doesn't realize that she's herself making the disaster potential in this situation exponentially worse with her imprudence. 'Frying pan into fire because the frying pan is too blazing to grab and pull' is not sensible regardless of any and all factors.
