So, folks. Kabhee bhi dekha hai kisi ko dhol, nagade, band-baaje, naach , gaane aur gulaal ke saath BARBAADI ka swaagat karte hue? ... In case, you haven't, kindly watch today's episode as Rudra takes another stride into Paro's life... with CELEBRATIONS AND FANFARE.
The music and colour at the haweli, the festivities. Laila's and Binduri's dance and the lyrics of the song describing an explosive man , Varun's UNCANNY description of Rudra as the man of Paro's horrors, sorry, dreams ( Aapne kisi Oonth par baithe hue Rajkumar ke sapne dekhe hongge) , Paro's Titaliya -size complaint to Lord Shiva that how she wishes that her groom was also HIS namesake...Everything was a LOUDSPEAKER sign that fate is propelling Rudra into her life at the speed of a rocket launcher. Fate even gave Paro a glimpse of Rudra - an eye full , as a prologue, as a foreward. Look at him carefully, Paro. And well, she did look at him carefully, before hiding her face in a pallu and flying away...
Varun and Paro's scene is a THORNY MEMORY in the making. Its a nice 1960s Shashi Kapoor-Rakhi canvas - Mhaaro ghar, Mhaaro pariwaar , Mhaaro this and Mhaaro that. You know that 'Jhilmil Sitaaron ka Aangan hoga types' waala future planning? Haan, bilkul waisa tha.
Through studied behaviour and sweet promises and a future flash forward, Varun Sa won over our Titaliya - and she is no longer anxious about marrying this phanboy of Prem Chand and Harivansh Rai Bacchann. She is already weaving dreams of a Jhilmil Sitaaron Ka Aangan. Like 60% or should I say 90% girls do... Awww... alas, babe! You are not in the land of Barbara Cartland or Jane Austen.
Sweet dreams are fun, my Titaliya. But when PROVIDENCE raises its head like a monster from the deepest depths of the ocean, dreams turns into feathers and slip into the Milky Way. So, am sorry. Varun will be a good and heartening memory but you are not getting any Jhilmil Sitaaron Kaa Aangan in this lifetime.
What stand out in today's episode apart from Binduri preparing to go into a crocodile's oven and Varun Sa ka poetic proposal ARE THE LAST TWO SCENES.
Cleverly, creatives and writers slap it into your face how OPPOSITE Rudra and Paro are. Chhumui si , naazuk si , massakali types Paro whose dreams are as fragile and delicate as the human eyelash. Jallaad types, Male Daayan types, Khooni Darinda types Rudra for whom taking a life is as easy washing his hair in sunsilk.
Destiny puts the plan in front of the audience as Paro does a chhotti- si shikaayat that when everything is so great about her groom, toh agar uske paas Shivji ke naam ka ek synonymous naam hotaa toh kitnaa perfect hota? Unintentionally, Paro has made a wish aur kehte hainn ki Bhagwaan se jab bhi kucch maango, soch samajh kar maango... 'coz usually dua qubool ho jaati hai.
Cut to a manifestation of Rudra roop of LORD SHIVA. Paro's future husband? Soulmate? Life Partner? is shredding a life to pieces with the cold intelligence that could land him a role in silence of the lambs re visited...
Cold. Manipulative. Calculative. Ruthless. Unattached. Unfeeling. Hedonistic. Furnace-like... hmm... what do you say, Paro? Do doves fall in love with predators? Do they?
Anyway, welcome to the land of Parolata , Rudra. Abb ittne dhol nagaade ke saath padhaare ho mhaare des , Balam Kesariya... DHAMAAKA karke hi bidaa honaa.
