Episode 122


Twinkling Hearts


"Maanwan Thandiyan chawan" [mothers are like cool shades of trees].It is saying mothers hold kids hands for a while but their hearts forever.She is blessing on us from heaven on Earth and whose blessings always follow her child ,ALWAYS! As Emily Dickson says ,"A mother is the one to whom you hurry when you are troubled'".and that is so true in Arnav's case.He always seeks solace in his mother's lap in the GARDEN after her but still looking for love like her as mom's hug lasts long after she lets go and he's been missing that since he was 14.

A brother and a sister shared their moments of spending time with her and talked over her "Nishani" [mark] her kangan left for them.The noise of which was so peaceful for them as Mom's Lori[song to make kid's sleep].The peace holding such a piece in hands gets broken when Anjali triggered a scorching pain of ocean in him.


Mother's caring and loving words for her DIL hold such a big meaning'...

"dihan rakhiye ga aur savdhan rahiye ga..humare chote ki naak peh bohat sara gussa rehta hai..aur dil mein bohat sara pyar..gussa bardhat karna and pyar sood samet lautana"

Translation: Be careful and be considerate , Our Chote has a loving heart Besides too much anger on his nose'...Have patience with anger but return the love with adulation''...

Teary eyes but determination of showing sister his strength can't make him weak.Anjali"agar Maan tumhain aaj dekhti tou'''...pehchan bhi nahi paati mujhe'..Arnav completes it and leaves before the convulsion traps him and on his way out bumps into Khushi ...Her smile vanishes with his tears and they both share a moment of understanding with each other...She knows the fact through Anjali and knows he needs her''...


Khushi reaches to poolside and reads his pain written on her face as she can't take her eyes off of him.But she wants to leave him alone by obeying his wish his DEAL for not talking to him."Tou kya woh sach mein tare ban jante hain"'.....["so do they really become stars?"]

These innocent words just grab her heart,"Baat sach ya jhoot ki nahin hai baat yaqeen ki hai"[ Its all about Faith not truth or lie] .She comes close to him and they both look at the stars,twinkling hearts, their parents .

Pause here:Is he the same ASR who threw her out by saying :tum samjh sakti ho keh mein kya mehsoos kar sakta hoon"[You know how do I feel]on his parents' anniversary.


PONDERING CONNECTED DOTS

Their connection with these twinkling hearts is since from the beginning,from Sheesh Mahal to Delhi night [1st tu hi bata mere Maula]...Where his sis told him "eik din woh larki ayegi...[One day a girl will come in your life...] till Tota huwa tara night after she left him and he wishes for her to come back and Di asks his wish in her prayer ,"aisa jeevan saathi mile jo inke sab dukh door karde.."[a life partner who can relieve him from all the pains] ...journey of Di's wish becomes that partner's heartbeat who makes him realize these twinkling tiny bodies have heart of someone who thinks her deceased parents are shining on her in between there and not just a silly romantic nonsense which became a sizzling romantic moment during Diwali night under the stars..These silent communication tools brought them together and provided them strength when they needed each other the most.These silent night riders got their heartbeat during telepathy of their confession .There are many many moments of their silent communication through these twinkling hearts but the most amazing was when he smiles upon her command as if she says "look Arnavji your Mom wants you to just SMILE."

and above all these became the witness of their union in the farmhouse where his belief changed with her and he brought his MOTHER right next to her .

real meaning of life only reaches to some. Payal is one of them ,in her bitter experience of broken marriage and then humiliation by Mamiji she can't cross the limits.Akash has no experience of that life as he can't see the true picture of her heart.Of coarse its easy for him to say that "pyar yeh sab dekh keh to nahin kya jata..pyar tou bas ho jata hai"[Love does not know any boundaries..it just happens] His thinking that he can seek forgiveness and love by giving gifts might work in some cases but not for practical Payal. Ok didn't like wind thing with these either just like the other day with Shyam CVs is slacking here.This mehsoos is only for ARSHI...Period..

His grouchiness ,his gussa, his ego melts away with tears in the memory of his Mother which in return melts away the DEAL in between them and Arnav,"Kya woh humain dekh keh khush hain"[are they happy to see us?] Bingo '..He wants her to say yes as he wants that confirmation that her parents are happy to see them together from her and then "kya meri maa mujhe dekh kar khush hai.."[Is my mother happy to see me?] He knows she believes in these twinkling hearts and he wants her to say YES'.



And she confirms it all and much more by mingling her teary hearts with him'.till she couldn't take it any more.Her concern is always Arnav's welfare just his is hers.,"aap theek tou hain na"[are u sure u ok] .. She leaves making sure he is fine but his following peaceful eyes are not ready to leave her trail yet as these just got to know how to twinkle''He is at peace ,she is talking with him'.He knows she cares about him.He knows her eyes never lies when he asks..."Kya woh humain daikh keh khush hain.."[Are they happy to see us...} He asks permission from her parents through her today...as this is his first introduction to him and then he asks about his mother...Just fabulous CV .Hata off to you....👏



Lamha-e-Fikriya[Thinkable moment]:As I said in 119 she has no sentimental value with that ring so why bother remembering it'.She completely has forgotten that she is engaged'.hmmm.

Twinkling hearts are bringing these two together with their blessings and today he got one more step closer to her through her belief''..Don't forget he got Ram Charitra Maanas [Krishna]through her today''..Audios

Episode 122


Toh kya voh sacch mein taray baan jatay hai ...

His Di had taken out their Mama's kangan's from the locker. They both could still distinctly hear the clink on her wrists as she had put them to sleep. Di had tearfully read the letter Mama had written to her daughter in law.

His Mama's Bahu ... Does he think of the girl he has spent all day not talking to. His Mama had cautioned her about the gussa that lives on his nose and had disclosed another secret ... The Pyar that lives in his heart. She had lovingly instructed, Gussa bardast karna, aur Pyar sud samet lotana ...

Gussa bardast karna ... His heart had bubbled in agony at the thought ... Because that is what she has been doing since the day she has come into his life. Even though he knows, his gussa terrifies her, she battles with it fiercely, she parries it skillfully, she holds it at bay cautiously, she giggles at it cheekily ... she obliterates it easily ... Always terrified, but always entangled, never has she let it scare her away.

Di had looked at him and wondered what Mama would think of him, if she saw him now today ... Not an awkward, restive adolescent, but her six foot tall, confident, successful, handsome brother ... He had cut her short ... Pehchan nahi pati mujeh. His eyes bloodshot, his throat aching with his unshed tears, he had stalked out.

He had run straight into her. She is stunned to see the raw pain seeping through his eyes. He had averted his eyes, hooding them and had walked off, not wanting to reveal any more.

She finds him, a short while later, standing still, his hands in his pockets, his head tilted skyward, staring at the brightly lit night sky. Her heart goes out to him. She feels his loss, his loneliness, his desolation. It mirrors the one in her own heart, the one she has learned to soothe. She moves silently behind him, not wanting to disturb him. She had expected him to ignore her, as he has been trying to do all day. Instead, his back to her, he asks her, Toh kya voh sach mein taray ban jantay hai ?

A breakthrough ... A turning point ... The story of our Khushi and Arnav turns to gently face a path that leads to his healing. He had rejected her offer of an aid just this afternoon. Now he is ready. She does not prompt him, she does not lead him, he seeks her. A man who hides the worst of his despair even from his closest confidant, his Di, seeks her, a kindred wounded spirit. He knows without a doubt, if anyone is capable of unlocking this knot in his chest, it is she ...

A day where words were prohibited, spoken language was gagged ... A conversation. Their first ever. No contemptuous rejections, no feigned detachment, no snide barbs, no unwarranted accusations, no invigorating challenges, no clever gimmicks, no frivolous shenanigans ... He asks,She answers ...

A faithless, godless, unapologetically irreverent, unreservedly cynical man, asks her, Is his dead mother one of the stars shining in the sky ? As ridiculous, as illogical, as farfetched a question as any he has scoffed at numerous times before. Yet he asks. He longs to have what she has ... A faith ... A belief ... A fairytale ...

Not a question really, but a quest for fellowship ... Take me into your fold ... Show me what you see ... Make me believe ... A restrained a quiet plea ... Release me from my prison ... Lead me out of here ...

She knows what he seeks. She gives it to him. She shows him a path to go there. Baat sacch ya jhoot ki nahin hai ... Baat yakeen ki hai ...

Yakeen ... A word that demands no proof, that requires no validation, that seeks no reason ... All it requires is an honest acceptance ... An unquestioned submission ... A blind agreement...

She steps up to be by his side. She points to the stars and introduces him to her Amma and Babuji. She tells him of her belief that they twinkle because they see her ... Aur ... He interrupts her, stuttering, as though he cannot wait a moment longer to hear the answer to his next question ... A question that eats at his heart ... Kya voh humay dekh kar khush hai ... Kya meri M...Ma mujeh dekh kar khush hai ?

He knows the answer. He has just told his Di, his Mama would not know him. He has lost the boy that was his Mama's Chottay. All that remains of that boy is a bereft scream locked deep in his heart. He knows, he is not at all the man his Mama had hoped to raise ... He is the epitome of all she would have not wanted ... Yet he asks ...

Her heart lurches to her mouth, she cannot utter word ... Her unspoken answer hangs between them ... He turns to look at her, his throat convulsing. Her answer glints at him in the tears she holds back, it hides from him under her lowered blinking eyelids, it stutters to him in her evasive mumble ...

She leaves reluctantly, aching for him, pining she could give him more. Her heart breaks at his resignation, at his hopelessness ... Her confident, proud, bossy Laad Governer. A man she has repeatedly accused in the past of conceited self-absorption, of offensive, brash arrogance, sees himself as a failure tonight. She turns back and asks, Aap theek toh hai. He turns his face sideways and gives her an assuring nod. An honest answer ... He is surprisingly okay. An inexplicable understanding, a gentle calm settles on him ... She has shown him the path. He turns to watch her leave, as she walks up the stairs.

The other side of town, a shy, gentle boy woos a quiet, unassuming girl, with undesired flowers, with unwanted tinsel, with unnecessary sparkle. But with genuine, heartfelt, nervous reminders of their simple, unobtrusive love story ... He speaks nervously, but honestly. He stumbles, but only because he is so tenderly earnest. He will fail, she will break his heart because the quiet girl knows of the divide between them and the price of such a farfetched dream.

Faiqa... Ipoona this episodes takes me to their remarriage suhagraat.
all he felt today will be confessed on that night. his haunting past and the void created by his mothers exit which was filled by hatred and insenstivity and fully guarded under a stern exterior was out in the open ...his vulnerability..his
fears..his hurt..his longing for peace came tumbling out of his heart.

he who had learn to hate to keep the hurt at bay was now unconsciously letting the past go and was only keeping the moment spend with her close to his heart.only his heart knew that her every smile and every tear make him go weak
"farak padta hai" with her existence..no matter how much his head denies.

and today after seeing those Kangans and her moms letter to her bahu
he knew they were not going to the right person...he could make everyone believe that La is for him...but he cant feign where his mom comes...he knew he is not doing right by making La his pawn. his conciousness pricked him and he admitted that his mom would not have recognised him if she was alive today.

also the msg she had written..he was already doing all that to khushi...venting his anger on her..and she giving just unconditional comfort in return...he has still to show her that love filled heart..and her moms words made him realise the wrong he is doing to the righful owner of her Kangans.


Di is the one who he adored after his mom...but today he needed someone else...
his soulmate
and only she knew how to set his mood right...hamesha se...
and where his mom and inner feelings/emotions come...there no one can take Khushis place,his urge for her closeness made him let go of his ego and Deal and all he wanted was to go with her to the celestial land where he could feel his mom...he was ready to believe in everyword she said...felt comfort in her closeness...felt contented hearing her words and wanted her to say YES that their parents are happy to see them TOGETHER ...

no pretense..no artificial shell..no anger...just a little vulnerable, sensitive and innocent boy who wants just Khushi to alleviate his painful past...unknowingly he left Di,s comfort and advanced towards her as she only holds the KEY to his happiness.

She completed her bandaging on his wounded soul by asking "Aap theek to hai na" and he more at peace with himself affirmed and his eyes followed her till she is out of sight.


Each star in the sky symbolizes one reason why I love you.
Your love is like the north star; you guide me when I'm lost.


Wonderful writeup...hats off to both of you girls

"To kya woh sach me tare ban jate hain?"..
Starting a profound conversation with his lady he vowed not to talk just a day ago.. . without even the need to look into her eyes...he knew she was listening...as if they always had a baseline conversation going on... a perpetual soul talk...a melody sung between them unhindered... unheard to any .. that has in it to reach crescendo at any time...where there is NO need for any words... an understanding, a tender care...that only they feel for each other..
Beautiful...a piece of art...a romantic's delight!

Arshi, beautiful connection of the twinkling hearts from the sheeshmahal. The way stars have been an inseparable part of their love.. a guiding light for them since that day..to this day to their painful hours of separation as he was in abduction ...to their most intimate moments.. an incredible consistency..
No wonder they are the ones to reunite that dhaga between them today.. which ofcourse was/ could never be severed.
Payal, the practical girl .. proclaiming that they can never be HUM.. wonder if her rejection was solely becos of akash's mother's visible dislike for her.. or is it worldly wise?? becos Khushi never really seem to consider this factor between her and her man... was it becos of Arnav's motherly figure, Anjali's affection towards her that she is confident? what if he confessed just like Akash did to Payal.. would Khushi have been able to reject based either on their social strata difference or his existing girl friend?
btw, agree with you about that little gust of wind, it should be only for Arshi. When the farm house sequence came, I couldn't really connect that initial star BG tune for Akash- Payal. Now when I hear it for Akash- Payal every time, I flinch.. aah.. Arshi deserved a customized tune for their special day than borrowing from their siblings..isn't it? if things were to be fine and the interest of all around didn't fade, we would have gotten a new tune for Arshi that day, like the Rabba ve Reprise we got for Teri Meri.

"Not a question really, but a quest for fellowship"
Ipoona, brilliant. yes that was what it exactly was!! He just needed to talk to her in that hr of distress where all the charades.. falsifications...egoistic squabbles vanished into thin air!
But did her answer hurt him in the end, just the way he was hurt to say it to himself with Anjali "pehchan bhi nahi payegi"? But it didn't look like.. as he knew what her answer would be.. he seemed to have found some solace in sharing his helpless imperfection with her.
Thank you Ipoona.

Ipoona, I am amazed, and astounded! 👏
It's like you stole all my thoughts! Reading your post, I felt like all my emotions and thoughts about the episode found wings in your words - I would never have been able to express my thoughts so well!

I always felt that the characters of Arnav and Khushi were meant to complete each other, like 2 sides of the coin. One does not exist without the other, and together they make one completed and fulfilled soul. Individually, they are 2 imperfect individuals who if not at a conscious level, at least at a subconscious level, are very well aware of their faults, insecurities and shortcomings.
Arnav, in this episode, knew that he in his current persona, does not and cannot measure up to his mother's expectations and aspirations. Anjali was, is and always will be his devotion and responsibility, but he never felt the need to match or rise up to her expectations. He always wanted his di happy, but that devotion never prompted him to change. But his growing love for Khushi makes him want to be a better man.

And though he keeps taunting Khushi about her 'aukat', that was just a shield to safeguard his bruised soul. He subconsciously always considered her an equal. It's her tears that bother him, her smile that lights up his soul, her approval that soothes his heart, and it's only with her he could share his feelings of inadequacy without even blinking an eye!

This love story was never about two opposites getting attracted, it was from the beginning to end a journey of two incomplete souls finding their way to each other through the internal maze of their own imperfections!

@bidz,
Loved the symbolism of shyam's bracelet you brought up in 121. Can't seem to find that epi link commenting here.
Yes, Shyam put the ring in a not a very subh muhurat on the wrong side finger. Then this bracelet not being able to stay with her... Just like the gift or the jalebis he got that Khushi left on in the front verandah of GH as she has no heart for them. That is the thing that didn't let their epic love being tainted although they both had partners, those partners NEVER really were able to leave any kind of marks with them not even physical let alone mental and Arnav and Khushi belonged to each other what they say manasa vaacha karmana... By heart, by word and by action!

There is another major grand mother of all symbolisms to come in that 124... How Arnav and Khushi got engaged formally!

Thanks bidz for un covering that one.
