Parody on 'Bhag DKbose' from Delhi Belly

Bhag Shyam Babua - Part 5

Hone wale sasural mein, main mazey se reh raha tha

Amma aur Buaji ko chai pilaake pataa raha tha

Raizada ki toli aatey dekha,

To kamrey mein jaake main to chup gaya aaa aaa aaa

Phas phas gaya Shyam babua babua, kamrey mein phas gaya

Ab niklega kaise tu bata, kamrey mein phas gaya

Arey darwaza khat khata rahi hai Khushiji, kamrey mein phas gaya

Phas phas gaya Shyam babua babua, kamrey mein phas gaya...

Kamrey mein phas gaya to, socha khidki se hoga koodna

Par darwaza khidki ka, zara bhi khula na,

Jab lagaa ke ab pakda gaya,

Tab khidki ka darwaza hi khul gaya aaa aaa aaa

Bhaag bhaag Shyam babua, babua, babua, bhaag bhaag Shyaam babua bhaag, bhaag

Bhaag bhaag Shyam babua, babua, babua, bhaag bhaag Shyaam babua bhaag, bhaag

Arey pitne mein teri abhi waqt hai baaki bhaag bhaag Shyam babua bhaag, bhaag

Bhaag bhaag Shyam babua, babua, babua, bhaag bhaag Shyaam babua bhaag, bhaaag

Translation:

I was staying joyfully at my to-be-in-laws house,

I was appeasing Amma and Buaji by giving them tea

I saw the Raizada people coming in

I went and hid inside the room

You are trapped Shyam babua, you are trapped in the room, tell how will you get out, you are trapped in the room

Khushi is knocking at the door, you are trapped in the room...

I got trapped in the room, thought I will have to jump out of the window

But the door of the window did not open at all

When I thought that now I am caught

Then the window door opened

Run run Shyam babua...

There is still some time left for you to be beaten up, run run Shyam babua...

Nice point supriya and when I watched the episodes I thought the same. However then I tried analyzing Akash character and objectively speaking- there are situations in life which we have no control over them. However Akash was not hot headed like Arnav and probably if Payal had told him about Shyam he would have dealt with the situation differently and they would all have been forewarned. We saw that in Shyam revealing track he not for once said that he did not believe Payal. He also knew the fault was with Shyam and his two timing, however he felt betrayed because First : The brother he adored was kidnapped and he was unaware of it even though his own mother knew about it. Second : The brother in law was cheating his much adored sister with his wife's sister who also happened to be his brother's wife and he was completely kept in dark about it, even though his own wife knew about it. So basically he had two nails to drive on the coffin of Shyam and one against his wife.

His complaint against Payal was why he was kept in dark of such a huge incident. I think his blaming Payal was quiet natural and rational. Khushi was Payal's younger sister so of course as an elder brother-in-law he had affection for her as was evident in many several occasions. Now when Khushi was alone in the house after Arnav was kidnapped I think it was very reasonable that if he had known Shyam was ogling for Khushi he would have taken measures to keep Khushi away from Shyam's advances, and we have seen many instances where Shyam was actually afraid of Akash. Also Anjali called him Hamare Bhai, with whom he had shared everything, who had sheltered him in every problem, and there she was totally broken down because of the way the secret was revealed to her. So no wonder he was cross with Payal. He loved and trusted Payal however the love of his life had kept a secret to herself which had put the life of three of his loved ones in danger- Arnav, Anjali and Khushi. Also we know the one who trusts no one- our Arnav bitwa even believes everything Payal says with closed eyes, like the fact about her marriage and even Shyam Khushi sagai, when he had not even given Khushi a chance. So of course Akash would have believed Payal with the whole truth along with Shyam's manipulations as he did during the revealing track. Also the three siblings Arnav, Anjali and Akash were there for each other. So I doubt we as humans ourselves would have acted differently.

Now regarding him threatening to leave the house- he was the baby Then comes Mami wof the Raizada family. He was the one whom Arnav came to shield in every problem- personal or professional. He was one whose every emotion was bolstered by Anjali. He was one who took care of Manorama's tantrums, dad's complains and Nani's authority. When someone is in stress they regress to a younger form. And anyways he was stressed by his mother's words so he threatened to leave. We know well that he would not have been allowed to by his family like Nani, Dad, Anjali and Arnav; after all he was their most.

Now love of Akash for Payal was pure in a sense he was not two timing his love. However the strength I am also skeptical like you. But I think it was never put to test as much as Arshi's were.

Episode 129

His Revenge, Her Tears

He ever so slowly and premeditatedly walked over to her with the necklace in his hand. She was nervous, somewhat embarrassed, why would he do that? Would he buy HER the necklace? He places the box in her hand and gives the necklace to Lavanya. She is hurt and I feel her pain. He says to Kushi, "I gave the necklace to Lavanya that you liked, I hope that doesn't make a difference to you." Pain is written all over her face; he could be so mean. His pain comes out as revenge.

They are going to go shopping for clothes, is he going to come asks Di. He makes a sideway glance at Kushi and says of course! What else can he do to aggravate her.

At the shop Anjali runs into the jeweler and he asks her if she liked the ring that Shyam bought for her. Shyam had denied buying this ring. Something is fishy. This was the obvious reason he didn't want this jeweler to come to the house. Funny though, Anjali is worried but she doesn't take this thought further.

The two of them keep stealing glances at each other. It seems Kushi is worried and he is looking with revenge in his eyes. How much more will he hurt this girl?

Anjali receives a phone call from Naniji the caterer is coming to the house and she needs to come home. Kushi hears this and says she will go after all Anjali knows more about clothes. This would be a great escape for herbut Anjali refuses and says she will go.

Lavanya grabs Kushi with an armful of clothes for both the girls to try on. Kushi says she doesn't want to but Lavanya insists that her wedding is just around the corner too. She takes her in the dressing room and after Kushi tries in a beautiful sari lavanya loosens her hair from her braid. Lavanya insists she sees herself in a full length mirror while she tries on her outfit. She throws her out to the other room with the mirror. Kushi stumbles into the room, straightens up as Arnav is ending a phone call right outside the room. He looks up and sees her'.Rabba Vey'she is beautiful, as beautiful as she was the first time she wore that red sari. She senses he is near and she lifts her large brown eyes and stares right into his. She looks away and grabs her dupatta for protection. She fidgets with her dupatta and covers herself as he starts the walk; that long, slow walk, eyes fixed on her, drawn towards her. She knows he is coming but looks away. He slowly walks over to her and reaches out, she steps back, and he looks at her like "come on" and grabs the price tag. Here it comes more of his revenge; it's not that bad he says but you and your fianc can't afford it. She looks up at him. "What a pity, but I am in a good mood today. So what the hell, I will buy this for you today." She looked beautiful in this sari she should have it. He knows she can't afford it so he will buy it for her. He wants to see her in it but his revenge is great and he must do what he has to do to ease his pain and prove his point. It doesn't make a difference or matter to you, hmm, we will see. What more can he do to push her to the limit? Tell your fianc it is a present from ASR, afterall you have done so much for Lavanya and me. It is not so much a gift as a tip. Wipe that smirk off your face because here it comes. "I don't want it," she says to him," and you're right it is not so bad because it is not so special. I don't like this." He is saved by the bell he answers his phone. Tears fall from her eyes as she slumps into a chair. Lavanya yells out to her that she feels like she is in a dream world, her heart is beating faster. "It's better to be in a world of dreams, Lavanya, because in the real world there is only heart break." Her tears fall on the price tag as he is watching her through the beaded doorway. He walks through the beads reaching out to her but stops, fist clenching, he watches her wants to comfort her but just can't. He closes his eyes relaxing his clenched fist and turns and walks out the door. She is still in tears.

Anjali is distracted and seems to be repeat inh herself. Nani and Mami wonder what is wrong. She tries to call Shyam and Mami understands her distraction, he is not answering her call. She calls his office but he hasn't come in to the office today. He must have gone to court, she says. Shenstarts talking to herself saying that the jeweler must have misunderstood. Nani asks what is the matter and Anjali denies anything.

Lavanya is trying on an outfit and asks Kushi about ASR. Her phone rings and La asks Kushi to answer it. It is ASR she puts him on speaker. He says he has to leave, he must go. He took care of payment she can shop and go home. They're call ended and all he can think about how his revenge brings Kushi's tears.

Episode 127-128: Dard, Ishq & Faraq in bunches

The ASR music has never sounded so brutal, the dard(pain) in this ishq(love) had never run so deep. His eyes scorching on her, slowly he walked over, she looks away fiddling with some jewelry in her hand nervously trying to ignore him,

but he calls out her name "Khushi" eyes cold as ice, she could ignore no more, she looks at him, he passes the set onto her, he has malicious intentions and the young, innocent, inexperienced girl falls right for it. Poor thing thinks he bought the set for her that she was eyeing. "aap? yeh?" is all she can say in front of everyone. She knows ASR is capable of anything, even gifting her a set in front of everyone. He proceeds to take the necklace in his hands, eyes still on her, and holds it up worrying her even more "Aap? yeh?" she asks again. Once he had her where he wanted her, he makes his intentions clear "Lavanya? I wanna see how this looks on you". He puts the necklace on Lavanya, moving her hair to the side with his hands while keeping his eyes steady on Khushi every second only to look for that faraq.

The faraq she didn't admit to when he had looked her in eyes and asked point blank, she had the audacity to look him back in the eyes and tell him "koi faraq nahi padta" leaving his eyes with visible dard in them. A ping pong game or rather war of inflicting dard (pain) on each other had started since Arnav's discovery of Khushi's engagement. A cold war had continued the next day with indirect hits of "cheap bracelets," bank balances, and "nakushi" (unhappiness) but when she picked up that bracelet, a sense of loss on his face was evident and as Kushi would say later point out "aap haarte bahut boora hai Mr.Arnav Singh Raizada"...the war had intensified to newer levels perhaps both weren't prepared for. His anguish best expressed in his anger, like often result into irrational behavior.

After seeing how upset La was with his abrupt irrational decision to have the engagement the very next day, Khushi had followed him out by the poolside to talk to him, to convince him. Perhaps she didn't know just how much her sticking up for her fianc's bank balance and picking up that bracelet would stir him, but the faraq from it all was everywhere in that exchange by the poolside in the way he directed his anger towards her, and in his need to let her know how little she means to him:

"Mein kuchh bhi karron mujhe tumhe jawaa dene ki zarurat nahi" (I don't have to tell you what ever i do)

Or, in the way he slams file he was pretending to read and stands up eagerly to face her to unleash on her

"tum hoti kaun ho mere life ke decision mein interfere karne wali?" (Who do you think you are to interfere in my life like that?) - there is definitely and underlining of resentment that she is not a bigger part of his life, but she's not so he wants to hate her for it. His reaction behavior is so intriguing and moving here.

This faraq had turned his world upside down, driven him crazy at thoughts of her belonging to some faceless man, he was so desperate to hear from her and know that this faraq has affected her too. so when he saw bits of it, he couldn't hold back.

She had fired back to his short and nasty comments. "aap samajhte kya hai apne aapko? aap ke samne dar ke maare koi mooh nahi kulta iska matlab yeh nahi ha ki-"

while talking, looking in his eyes, something stops her. he catches on. she tries to go on..

"Jab Anjaliji aur Nani ji ne aapki sag" again, whey can't she go on, finish the word "sagaai"...his sagaai. "you have to listen to me, this is your engagement, not some game" to which Arnav asks her to take care of her engagement first.

she looks away, "i'm talking bout your engagement not mine"

"Exactly," This was his chance, he closes in on her, "sagaai meri hai" looking her straight in the eyes he asks away "Khushi meri sagaai ho ya na ho, kal ho ya ek saal baad ho, tumhe iss kya farq padta hai?"

Translation: "Exactly, it's my engagement, Khushi, whether i have an engagement or not, whether its tomorrow or a year later, what difference does it make to you?"

Barun brilliant voice modulation as work again. His voice had gone so mellow, and serious.. And he said her name, only her first name, there was an intimacy in this question and the way he asked it that it did all sorts of things to her. The whooshing wind had suggested how deep his question reached her, as deep as his mehsoos reached every time, har baar... A question she didn't anticipate, but the answer had involuntarily appeared in her eyes. But perhaps in her eyes wasn't good enough for him, he wanted to hear the word from her lips. He held his breath and swallowed hard.

Why do i get the feeling that the way he waits for her answer here, if she had admitted that the faraq is plenty, there really was a small window in which he would've also given in? so not like ASR but here so much desperation, if even for a brief moment, I feel he too would have revealed his true feelings. Sadly, If there was this small window, Khushi slams it shut. Hard to blame the girl after all the pain she had endured since Diwali night, she wouldn't dare bring to her lips anything that would leave her vulnerable to him.

As hard as it was for her, she looked down, away from him, and managed to piece together a sentence with hesitance "aapki sagaai ho ya na ho? hamme kyu faraq pade ga?"

He looks down disappointed with dard (hurt), but its her next line and the way she dared to look him in eyes and say with such confidence is what drives him over the edge

"suna aapne? hamne kya kaha? Hamme koi faraq nahi padta!"

"did you hear? what I said? I doesn't make any difference to me?"

Anger fills his face but the sad notes of Rabba ve mirror the deep inflicted dard so visible in his misty eyes. She tries to continue but he just keep looking at her with this look, how could she go on? and before she knew it, she was trailing behind him while his hand gripped her wrist tightly with that haq (a familiar dard now) and drug her into the living room...there was madness in his determined eyes.

"Ek minute Lavanya" he says letting go of Khushi's hand just in time...that shatir shatir batameez laad governor! Once he has everyone's attention he continues

"Khushi convinced me and I think she's right, Its really tough to prepare of an engagement in one day" Everyone is surprised at his sudden change in mind but there is a fear in Khushi's reaction..what is his angle? where is he going with this? He certainly didn't look convince out there

"SO i've made a decision that the engagement won't be tomorrow, it will be next week, because i can't wait longer than this Lavanya" needless to say he put a smile on everyone, especially on La with the last line "ab teek hai?""ok now?" a happy nod from La and he makes his angle known to Khushi

"Par maine ek aur faisla liya hai, engagment ki saari tayaariya Khushi karegi. Mera aur Lavanya ka risha tey karaane mein Khushi ka bahut bada contribution hai, aur maine Khushi ko office mein kaam karte hue dekha hai, bahut hardworking hai"

Translation: "I've made one other decision, Khushi will do all the preparations for the engagement, She made a big contribution in our relationship, I've seen her work in the office, she's very hardworking.

He turns around to look at her, a slight lift in the eyebrows "is that OK with you Khushi?"

...in a roomful of people only the two understood how poisonous that question and his look really was. She couldn't answer till La answered for her, all she could do was force a smile and nod. He walked over to her for another blow, in this one however his dard tucked inside "I hope tumme koi faraq nahi pada"

At this point, the faraq had become a weapon in this war, he just wants to hurt her, the way he had been hurt. His victory would lie in all the faraq he saw and pulled out of her which he knew was there, but she chose to keep it hidden at a time when he dropped all of his inhibitions to ask her. this just doesn't sit well with him especially when jealousy is involved

On a another note, after looking in his eyes, and knowing now what he's doing, she must realize how deeply he cares for her to be taking such extreme measures only to get her to admit. where she knows it or not, his challenge of faraq has her in fear...perhaps fear of giving him what he want. Afterall Khushi tends to show "jo dil mein, woh hi chehre pe" (whatever is in heart is on her face). The next day when Arnav arrives unexpectedly, the first words out of her mouth with fear in her voice "Anjali ji said that you're not coming"

"Kyu? tumhe kya farq padta hai?" hehe he was dying to say that to her wasn't he?

A galore of beautiful jewelry had been laid out for a bunch happy women. Arnav and Khushi sit on the opposite side of the sofa, but they were right there beside eachother weren't they? both aware of the dard exuded by each other. this is what you call sizzling chemistry. Anjali shows him a ring, a slight nod but the second he overheard that it was Khushi's choice

"i didn't say i like it, i said it's nice, app aur dikhaiye"' he looks over to catch any faraq, i'm sure he found some in those uneasy eye look away from him.

What makes it so hard to hate ASR is that even at his worst, his love and care for Khushi always shows. Like the minute Anjali and La leave, his gaze goes to her without any hostility, any arrogance, even when she looks away his eyes just can't leave her face and when they finally do, she sneaks a look in. The sad rendition of "Rabba ve" how would they ever have gotten over all these feelings ???

The sales guy had come to pressure her into looking at jewelry, she refused a few times but when the salesman saw her eying a simple set, he gave her choice away to ASR. The simple middle class girl refuses again to even try it out. She goes to help La make her selection, while Arnav had cooked up an evil plan.

"mujhe yeh kharidna hai (I want to buy this)"

Right away, he get a reaction from Khushi, he had built up this situation to have think exactly what he wanted her to with cruel intentions and hidden desperation. He left her in tremendous amount pain as La gushed over that set.

"Maine tumhari pasand ka set Lavanya ko de diya, I hope tumhe koi farq nahi padta hai"

"i gave the set you liked to Lavanya, I hope this doesn't make a difference to you"

Maybe he saw a glimpse of what he was looking for in her tears, once again he had managed to crush her, punish her harshly only because she doesn't do what he wants her to. However with Khushi's broken heart, it's he who has to work hard to keep the faraq away from his face.

While he continues inflict dard on poor Khushi, we see a repeated reminder of a fresh wound,

an symbolizing his constant agony over her engagement. Conscious effort by the CVs to keep it on him I think. Only after he can't handle her pain anymore and apologizes, does the bandage come off. A truce in this war of faraq, with her and with himself. Not that the pain becomes any less, but he does his best to deal with it, to live with it.

DROOL CORNER!!!!!!

Maybe he saw a glimpse of what he was looking for in her tears, once again he had managed to crush her, punish her harshly only because she doesn't do what he wants her to. However with Khushi's broken heart, it's he who has to work hard to keep the faraq away from his face.

While he continues inflict dard on poor Khushi, we see a repeated reminder of a fresh wound,

an symbolizing his constant agony over her engagement. Conscious effort by the CVs to keep it on him I think. Only after he can't handle her pain anymore and apologizes, does the bandage come off. A truce in this war of faraq, with her and with himself. Not that the pain becomes any less, but he does his best to deal with it, to live with it.
