Welcome to a new season of the ''DISCUSSION OF THE WEEK!'' I know I know you must be rolling on the floor. Discussion? Of what, you ask? Well don't underestimate the even today "killer potential" of our beloved KS. It kills us, literally! killer potential?!😆
If KS was once upon a time, a classy potent cocktail of intense emotions and a knock-down human drama at its best, it is now the greatest comedy show on air at best! Sometimes it seems to be a contest on who's looking the most bored or who's having the most constipated look. These days, the million dollar question often is" Which character's assassination is it going to be today?"
I think we've come to a point in the story where all characters have been assasinated at least once
KS then, inspired many awesome fruitful exciting unbelievable discussion sessions. KS today inspires boycotts, petitions and gaalis just to name a few. Earlier many of us used to keep awake to catch the late night repeats and even then we remained insatiate. Today, the updates decide if we are going to watch it or not and lot of times we don't feel like calamity has struyck if we miss even a truckload of KS episodes!
A sad state of affairs indeed…indeed😔
But we love KS and love is stupid and the result, like wide awake ullus our eyes and our hearts are refusing to own up that KS is over. We are still hoping for the magic to return…At least I am though it is ages since I sat and watched an entire episode of KS nor do I have any inclination of doing so unless Mayi can whip up some magic!
Sad sad and bad very bad but who said life is fair? Not I!
My mom says be happy with what you have got but never bow your head down and slink back if the cause is just.
Though I am far from satisfied with the present Frankenstein KS and in my innermost recesses of my heart I know that the golden past is past, I still allow Miss Hope to rule my rather battered and weeping heart, thanks to the heart twisting and brain assassinating nonsense that KS has become synonymous with.
Therefore with hope shining in my heart and an optimistic smile on my lips, I take you to the heart of the DOTW.
😛
As we know, this is basically an endeavor to bring back our section's lost glow and get you back in to action just like before.
But the pitiable state of KS and the heart to discuss any of its aspect vanishes in to thin air.
That is why this DOTW, while maintaining the tradition will now boast of a fresh twist!
😛
You'll find it divided in to four sections.
1. The KS section
A discussion on this week's KS.
2. The 'GET INSPIRED' section
No relation to KS but it's meant to inspire you. You may write about how the article has inspired you or not or you may add to it.
3. The 'SILLY' section
As the title suggests, it is plain silly.
And
4. The 'MUNNA JAP' section ooooooh😳
The majority's favorite pastime!
Though we would love to have you respond to all the four sections, you may skip those which don't appeal to you and may say Hello to at least one.
Since we want to increase the activity of our beloved Parivar, we hope you will not disappoint us and will be so kind as to respond to at least one of the following sections. Even partly will do.
So, let's start…
1. The KS section
LOVE …
What's love?
Love is...
What makes a weak man brave
And a king step off his throne
Good times, bad times
Easy times, tough times
It comes in an instant
And lasts three days after forever
That's what love is.
- Mike –l o v e,
The most clichd word and also the most underrated, especially in today's world.
Love is a decision not an emotion or feeling,
that if made from the heart will outlast anything...
- Raul and Samantha Juarez –Love reminds you that nothing else matters.
- Amy Bushell –(Not applicable to Amma, I guess!) 😆
So,
1. What's your definition of love?
hmm...my definition of love. A feeling, an emotion of attachment, want, need, a sense of comfort, trust, loyalty...okay so love's complicated😆
- Do you think the JB love story is really a love story? Why or why not?
They have love in between them...that's for sure. But is it enough to make a love story? that's the question😉 They don't always have much trust in each other. They do love each other immensely but they are not completely honest with each other. They have a lack of communication...to US, they are special...but in general they don't have a love story that will be forever remembered by everyone...but to us, since they are special...we always remember them as one...JB.
- Do you think if you love somebody to death, you are justified in taking decisions for them, that too behind their backs?
No. To us, it may seem like a right decision. But what if ultimately, it isn't? And frankly, I think if you love someone enough you should treat them with enough respect and belief that they are smart enough and capable enough to make decisions...we don't have to spoon feed them everything
- Raashi loves/worships the ground Ranvir walks on. Why are we grudging her idea of settling her husband before she dies? True love is giving. No? God forbid but if you found yourself in similar situation would you dare share your husband with another woman?
because she's doing what she THINKS will make him happy. Ultimately, only he knows what'll make him happy. If I were in a similar situation, I wouldn't force my husband to marry another woman. The decision rests on his shoulders. If, after I die, he falls in love, he'll marry again. Of course, i'll wish that he'll fall in love and marry again. But i think it's a little over the top to be that sacrificial to get him married while you're alive.😕
- Should Ranvir have also used emotional black-mail and given his first wife a taste of her own medicine? By marrying Rano, has he proved that he truly loves Raashi?
He shouldn't use emotional blackmail...she's dying...isn't that hurt enough?!😕
- Don't you find it absurd that Amma and Munna are behaving like their nasty past is all a bad dream and isn't it high time they stop behaving like footloose first time crush maniacs and like mature adults, discuss about the proof of Munna's association with Bani's sister whose name I don't want to take and dirty my teeth?
a bit weird...even though i don't mind the scenes...in the beginning they were a litlte forced.
Rano has married her brother-in-law so she can secure her sister's future. Is this love for her sister justified? I mean the love is but the stupidity she has got herself in to, is it? Tarun's love for Bani. Is it love or infatuation or just dirty crap that just cannot be forgiven? Why or why not? Love is blind and if his love is going to be harmless and not an obstacle to the JB relationship, would you mind? Do you think the lakshamn Rekha is always visible between friendship and love? We know Bani's heart is pure but Tarun Lee's is not. Would you blame onlookers and/or my Munna who is crazy about his wife and loves her to a fault, if suspicions arise about BT? Especially since she is forever hiding things from her husband and in spite of everything has never learnt her lessons? You know she who must not be named, what's up with her? Is she really carrying Munna's Child? Do you think she's now on a mahatma spree? Am I the only one who wants Pia and Tarun to get together and then get lost forever? What do you think happens when Ram Kapoor and Prachi Desai share screen space? Why do they exude sparks even when they are down?
- We are forever cursing Mayi and the destructives. But we must understand that it's a show and they run a business. They have to keep us on edge though our fabulous ff writers have proved that KS can rock without the usual nonsense we are fed day after day. The question is if you were the scriptwriter of KS, do give us a brief on the track you would use.
13. Final Question:
WHERE IS MY TONY?
I miss his handsome face and that sexy "Anything else Ma'am" so much…
The 'GET INSPIRED' section
Condemning Yourself for Past Mistakes…
How do you deal with your past mistakes?
Today, I'd like to recommend a great way to burden your mind, waste time, and lower your self-esteem.
It's called Condemning Yourself for Past Mistakes.
Try it out on yourself and people you dislike! It's very easy to do, and anyone can do it. It's great for injecting endless hours of frustration and stress into your life!
I've known many people who do this very well, but just in case you're having some difficulty, here are some pointers to send you on your way?
First, think of all the things you did or failed to do in the past.
Especially, things which you cannot do anything about it now. Constantly remind yourself of them and beat yourself up for them.A good way to do this is to keep whining about them. If you can regularly complain to others, it is even better! Remember to sigh a lot too. There's nothing like constant verbal repetition for these past mistakes to really stick.
Then, tell yourself that you'll never be able to adjust your behavior to prevent similar errors in future. Learning from mistakes just never crossed your mind. Remember, self-improvement is a myth.
This kind of thinking will start a vicious cycle. Remembering how incapable, unlovable, and foolish you are will enable you to continue repeating past mistakes. Now this part is essential in order for the entire self-loathing process to work.
In no time, you'll be able to whittle your self-esteem down to such a degree that you will have no problem thinking you're absolutely incapable of success and happiness. The strategy is laughably simple: reinforce negative thoughts and experiences and they will inevitably lead to negative feelings and outcomes.
Remember, you are not special, you are not unique. The world simply doesn't need another loser like you. If you're doing everything right, by this time, you would have lost most of your friends, alienated your family members, lost your appetite for food and life, and are looking forward to a lonely, meaningless existence.
So, if you're ever bored, and need to kill some time, depress your spirit and embrace failure as lord of your life, try condemning yourself for past mistakes. Have fun!
Many of us spend our whole lives running from feeling with the mistaken belief that you cannot bear the pain. But you have already borne the pain. What you have not done is feel all you are beyond that pain.
- Kahlil Gibran
So,
1. What do you have to say?
2. Did this inspire you in any way?
3. If so, how? And why?
4. If not, why?
5. Would you like to add something to the above? Any random thoughts or experiences? Or any related message?
3. The 'SILLY' section
What has today's KS turned you in to?
a. Rebella, the good Witch: "Hehehe...I am out to get Mayi!"😉
b. Kitto, the doomed skell: "Mercy Mayi! Aren't you satisfied with what you have done to me?"
OR
c. Villy, the ebullient teacher: Chalo bachon let me teach you how to murder a beauty by third rate love triangles!😕
So,
1. Take your pick.
2. And tell us why.
3. The 'MUNNA JAP' section
![]()
OLD IS GOLD…Sigh sigh…😭
Well do what you best at! Go on drool, flirt, praise and 🤬. Do what ever your heart tells you to!😉
Bolo Munne ki Jai!
Before I say goodbye I have a burning question which I hope at least one of you would be able to answer😕:
What do you think Ekta Mayi thinks our heads are filled with?
1. Straw
2. Nothing
3. Craters from the moon
4. Brains borrowed from her honored self
5. No idea
6. Who cares?
If you ask me, I will go for straw though after watching what ever is fed us, the poor straw would have caught fire long back!
Well that's it folks. Got a truckload of pending work awaiting me. I hope you will enjoy taking part in the DOTW as much as I did putting this down. All the best to my successors!
And Congratulations to all the IF Dev team winners . You make me so proud. Taaliyaan taaliyaan 👏👏👏
Cheerio and god bless all!
