Episode 355 Discussion: 20th August 2013

Welcome to the Episode discussion thread which we call as Viewer's and Reader's Respite. That's very apt, don't you think ? šŸ˜‰. And that proves our objective.

Objective behind the thread is
  1. It helps in keeping the forum clean without much litter. People just need to fall in a habit.
  2. We can have it like breathers at first followed by analysis.
  3. It also helps like-minded souls and pals bond and gel together to drop in their thoughts for themselves as breathers and for their friends as a peep into the episode and for others to post their reviews.
  4. And those from different time-zones, who do not get to watch the episode at this time of telecast (Indian 8:30 PM), without any worry to trace or keep track of all their buddy's posts, they can come here, read with leisure and later post their analysis after watching it from their Time zones.

Note for Newcomers to this thread.
Extremist thoughts and moralizing thoughts are not welcome over this thread. It is entertainment show we are watching. The channel calls their programs as entertainment and we are watching the show. Discussions are welcome in light hearted and in realistic manner. Moral policing is not appreciated. We do not want to feel stifled into that kind of atmosphere here.

There are several other social welfare sites that are there to discuss the genuine issues. If for some reason, it is felt that social concerns have to be addressed and ethical and moral responsibility needs to be exercised for watching entertainment, then; certainly the forum is an open place to create separate ATs and build up that kind of propaganda.

Please heed to this as direct request and conditional requirement to participate in this thread. Strong words such as psychopaths unless used in show, need not be used to instigate riotous atmosphere or start sermonizing.


POINTERS for Writing/Posting of your reviews and thoughts over this EDT
  1. Do not litter the thread with chit-chat conversations. A little is permitted to have the friendly atmosphere, but when you feel like chatting more, it is desired you take your conversation with your buddies to alternate venues like chat clubs, pm mode etc.
  2. Quoting Policy: It is desired that people refrain from single, double, triple and multiple quoting of posts on a repetitive basis. They can pick out the parts that they like to quote as opposed to quoting the entire post. It is often seen that we have to scroll through the pages when all they have done is quoting and more quoting with one line response to the actual post. IF has a rule that more than three times quoting is not allowed. But nowadays as people read IF posts over phone, it is preferred that people do not quote longer posts and just extract the portions of the post that they like to respond to and if they still find it relevant to their thought process then get the entire quoted text.
  3. Regulate the font size. Keep remembering that. It is really not pleasing to see big bolded letters for no special reason.
  4. The thread becomes a mess when you give your review and do not REST for sometime until others have posted. Please understand, respites or reviews; once or twice are good for few pages...don't make a regular chat thread with your reiterating/whining/complaining on the same point. For the online readers, the thread becomes unpleasant read. There is a separate Complaints thread in Main Forum.
  5. When episodic content is emotional, take a deep breath, give a good lengthy review; that acts as your vent in one single post...and make an exit to calm down your nerves if you still are possessed by only what you've seen.

For those who cannot watch can have the Live/Written Updates.
Today's LU from : Armu4eva

Note:
  • There are various other threads all over the forum. Please check out those as well. This is just one choice out of so many.
  • Readers are encouraged to post links of other members posts which had been "delightful read" towards analysis of episodic event/s or character analysis. It becomes an easy navigation in the myriad of posts and pages and can easily be overlooked.
  • The link to present day ED thread is always provided in the previous one discussed.Those who participated in previous thread can go to my posts and check the previous thread to get access to new link.

Madhu ko sharam nahi aati ye harkatein karte hue 😔 but...aaj sab maaf...🄳 bec. "suhagan ka sharap diya Madhu ne Sultan ko"🤣 the third shraap in Madhubala...pehle sister ka phir Ma ka ab suhagan ka..I wish yeh shrap abhi, this minute, this second, this nano second Sultan ko lag jaaye šŸ˜† Madhu darling, more power to you !

the episode was wonderful with beautiful & emotional moments..

1) RK was slightly more humble with Radha

2) Madhu picking up the pearls of her mangalsutra

3) RK forcing her to stay in his bedroom.."Divorce chahiye ya nahi"..golden words..i imagined him saying this ..

4) the little eyelock was romantic

5) RK watching Madhu sleep..well, it was a long drag scene but I can watch it for hours and hours together ..in b/w I ignored that the pillow wall is back..also, he didn't say what he said in the promo..so he'll get suspicious after his interaction with Madhu on Thursday..

6) Madhu getting Sultan's picture 🤣 ROFL moment when RK shattered it to pieces & Madhu gave her shraap ..yeh le tera Sultan ā˜ŗļø

7) so this drama is being done bec. Madhu wants to shift in the guest room ! cool ! that's why RK brought that girl..tit for tat.

8) B/f table.."shok sabha mein khana kha rahe hain" ..haan ! Bhai ki shok sabha hai , fresh fresh shraap mila hai 🤣 Madhu darling throwing hints pe hints but sabka mind block hai..When RK did 4 phera shadi with her, even then she never disrespected Radha..something is seriously wrong with her..

Precap, i'm waiting i'm waiting šŸ˜Ž

ETA I adore that tedha eye look of RK/VD

I stopped watching MEIEJ and finally watched it today @8.30PM on TV after heard that RK is back with bang 😃... While watching today's episode my face was glowing like a 100000000000 watts bulb...šŸ˜‰.. saw yesterday's epi too online after reading RK is back...

Congrats for all the Rishbala fans who are waiting for this RK 😳🄳... Though he is not using his brain at the moment i loved his dialogues, actions, reactions, expressions, etc etc etc 😃

Well, i loved the episode...

I loved all the scenes, but dint like madhu's over actions.neither i am feeling bad for her...somehow, felt like she deserves it for befriending bhai.. still its ok... bhai ko curse mila finally šŸ‘... hope he will die soon... i am waiting for that day... šŸ˜†..

One thing that caught my attention is "While RK watching the news, the scene was the exact scene that shot outside the court room".. bhai dragged madhu from there... why thats not recorded???? .. ofcourse even we have to leave our brains like rishbala while talking about bhai...🤢

@Charu: its not 3rd curse yaar... its 4th one... 3rd one was from dips to madhu..."humesha dukhi rehna wala curse".🤢... and its working now😔

Rushed review today (have to run off in 5 min.) So for today's episode, I decided to put all my angst aside, and watched the episode. Completely enjoyed it, loved Rishbala.

  • Loved Radhaji's dropping the little tidbit about Madhu gathering up the mangalsutra beads.
  • Madhubala poignantly stringing it back together.
  • Great scene when RK tries to stop Madhu - the getting close bit near the wall. Both of them totally into it...
  • Really loved that scene when RK sits next to a sleeping Madhu and glimpses the mangalsutra on her hand.
  • The next morning though, Madhu's back in action. Bringing in the heavy artillery - LV's photo, no less.
  • Loved her silent curse as she handled the prominently giant-sized photo (yet another portfolio pic?) Am just waiting for the curse to materialize - reminded me of Kannagi.
  • So is it going to be the guest bedroom for Madhu? Or pillow-wall bed?
  • Poor Radhaji and Bittuji are all hopeful.. But then comes the breakfast scene, where Madhu yells at Radhaji. A thoughtful RK looks on.

All in all, I thought DVD did a great job today. All their scenes, including breakfast table one, were lovely (if you ignored the mindlessness of it all)

The Precap: RK fires the next round. Brings a woman over, draped all around him..

RK was really good today...now i can't wait for him to win. I am cheering him up...just wished he used his brain. Like VD's acting in the scene where he was watching a sleeping Madhu...he looked so hurt.

Madhu continues to disgust me. Now she started to be mean to her MIL too. She kind of enjoys taunting RK and irritating him with her Sultan jaap. I am not getting the feeling that it is breaking her heart to do all these. Somehow i wonder if she really wants to be helped or not. šŸ˜•

Yayy...RK broke that creep's pics with his famous 😳 expressions. 🄳

wonder howcome Radha always think ke sab "apne aap" theek ho jayega 🤣

i should have put another emoticon here but honestly, i can't stop thinking abt Madhu's shraap wala dialogue šŸ˜† toh aaj mujhe serious scenes bhi comic lag rahe hain..

neither Radha nor Bittuji are thinking how did Madhu take a 180 degree turn ..nor analyze the events or join the dots together..bas Radha is hopeful ke sab apne aap theek ho jayega

Baaki sab jaye bhaad mein..aaj ke epi ki highlight hai Madhu ka shrap!! The moment she said "ki yeh ek suhagan ka shrap hai " I started laughing. Bhai tera toh ab beda garak hai . Epi was ok ok .. I liked RM scene when Madhu is ready with her bags for shifting to guest room and how my Right Kameena stops her.

Finally figured out how to enjoy the next several episodes of this track, going by the episodes-composition so far.😊
Mustn't expect sense in the content, or for RK to have been shrewd all this while, or for Madhu to get courage to deal with Sultan for at least a few more episodes.🄱
Be content with Rishbala scenes , vintage RK 😳, Madhu scenes when she's alone 😳, and Radha and Bittuji scenes for being more endurable than several alternatives to fill episode screentime.😊
Avoid first-telecast, watch episode later with updates in hand to know what content to avoid, skip all scenes of Sultan, mute all dialogues of Sultan and Dipali.
And this one I never thought I'd have to opt for - mute all spoken dialogues of Madhu and listen only to her thoughts-dialogues.
So long as one sticks to these guidelines and also accepts RK's shrewdness as a casualty until the end of this track, one can enjoy his wit and be grateful that he's currently at least being shown thinking again.šŸ˜•šŸ˜Š

Was satisfied with Madhu's thought shraap for Sultan, but was actually elated at RK's smashing the photoframe.šŸ‘
Had been concerned that that face would be in the vicinity even if only in paper-print form. Now that's handled.😃
So long as RK is willing to smash as many such photos as Madhu brings in, I don't particularly care if she brings in one every hour.😊
MEIEJ's props department might prefer laminated prints rather than glassframes in that case, however.šŸ˜†

Madhu only hits her stride and stops waffling and getting buffeted around by all the winds when she sees RK falling apart.

If RK were to fall apart anytime now in a repeat of the lakeside incident, Madhu might be counted on to slice Sultan's throat with a fruit-knife this time rather than a slight cut on his cheek.

But since this track seems to be all about evoking sympathy for Madhu (may I say that it seems to be an effort of rather dubious effectiveness?), RK will get his thinking process back only in phases.
And Madhu will continue to play helpless, which necessitates the absence of the one circumstance that sends her into nuke mode - RK devastated or in some other way likely to turn irreversibly away from her on emotion basis.

It's one of the things RK and Madhu have in common - distancing from the other physically is acceptable, so long as there is the certainty of unassailed emotional fidelity from that other.

While this current track may be intended to try to get sympathy for Madhu, it seems unlikely to be successful if she gives such distasteful statements to devastate her husband and mother-in-law, with the balancing by apologetic words when she's alone perhaps inadequate to counter the impact of her more vocal pretence.
If she were to give as steadfast and steely a performance to Sultan as she is instead giving to her husband and mother-in-law, that matter would have been dealt with by now.
Her repeatedly squandering opportunities to kill Sultan is needlessly dragging this track.

It would cause less danger or grief to RK or Radha than her current behaviour if Madhu *were* to kill Sultan, because even if she were to fail to prove her own doing of the deed or RK's lack of culpability, RK might yet be jailed but is unlikely to be hanged if the source of largesse to RK's legal harassers becomes deceased.

Had the leads been shown as a helpless for a few episodes, and then hitting back, this track would truly have been interesting, rather than a sterling example of abominably disinteresting.

Instead, in every episode, Madhu is shown increasingly helpless and bizarrely and unappreciably sacrificing, with the track-decisionmakers apparently having no understanding of the fact that the wife is unlikely to get any mass-audience sympathy for not killing her imprurient oppressor and instead giving in and agreeing to terminate her marriage in a manner publicly embarrassing to her husband.
RK is on trial for killing a man openly alleged to be Madhu's lover. If she tries to divorce RK alongside the trial, it publicly makes the allegation look valid.ā˜¢ļø
The killing is not discomfiting, but having it assumed that it was not in defence of his wife but a retaliation to her alleged infidelity is excruciatingly defaming for both RK and Madhu, impugning their individual and conjugal honour.

Every time a track tries to make Madhu look good rather than RK, they fail at it, and she ends up getting disapproved by mass-audience. Can they not maintain that trackrecord any further?
RK - shrewd or unshrewd - will get sympathy for everything he has endured in this track, especially since all the trouble originates via someone his wife had refused to heed warning against.
It's Madhu who looks set to be inadvertently scapegoated in all this blundering attempt to make her look a helpless object of sympathy.
