A spotlight on two marriages

This week was off to a better start. Overall, a much better episode but for a little stale leftovers from last week.😕 It was a wish fulfilled watching our two favorite couples whose marriages had been on neutral or park mode for a while now, but for the rude interruption of the nightmare of Katra Naresh's salicious dream.

For the most part Monday episode felt like a walk along the beach until you stepped on a sharp pebble or a scoop of hot baadam halwa that burnt your tongue.

Prats was relieved her sister was finally resting after all the dramabaaz and hoopla at the house. Prats, thank your lucky stars that your sasural weren't around to make it into a full scale theatre production. Krishna looked well rested after all tender loving care from his dharampatni. So, now he was spoiling for a fight with his wife.😡 Prats was disappointed that patidev didn't show up to the temple even after she had asked him nicely. Prats that sounds like you are blaming him for making choices that didn't favor you. Btw, Krishna baba, why couldn't you ease her distress and tell her you were at the temple instead of misleading her into believing you didn't care about her vrath? We get you are angry and hurt Baba, did you forget she is your "jaan"? . Now, now, Prats we know you are still a newbie at this marriage thingy, girl. Don't throw the rule book out the door when it comes to talking to your patidev just bec' you are falling in love with your pati Parameshwar. You could just as well have said to him "I was disappointed you didn't come to the temple, I wish you had" instead you turned around and pointed a finger at him by saying "you could have come to the temple when you were out for a while anyways'". Ttsk, tsk, tsk!😕

A frustrated Krishna went right away on the offense with some barbed words that were like poison tipped arrows intended to strike at her heart. He asked her if her stomach ever hurt when she lied or if she was ever tired of shedding those fake tears for they were all a charade. Prats was hurt and said she understood his anger towards her bec' of all that he had to bear because of her but she was not faking anything. Krishna mellowed when Prats seemed to understand his emotions but it was for just a moment. Take note of that, Prats! He bounced back with words sharp as arrows meant to draw blood. He told her that her betrayal was unforgiveable and she should just be grateful he allowed her to stay at his house. Keeping the vrath for his well- being wasn't going to absolve her of her sins. OUCH!

His words had accomplished the task of hurting her. Prats absorbed it all in, relieved he was not internalizing his emotions and punishing himself. His words also acted like fuel to burn off some of the guilt she still felt for causing him hurt and pain. Krishna is living proof of the saying "You only hurt the ones you love". Watch it Krishna Baba!😲 Tone it down a bit before your sherni patni decides to tell you to take a hike and move back to her maike. You will be the miserable one if she choses to move out.😔 The punishment must fit the crime na? How about sitting down and having a heart to heart talk 😳😳😳with that dharampatni of yours instead of slinging those darts at the heart that you want to win over.............you may end up with a wounded heart💔 that may need some tender loving care to mend and it will once again be your turn to heal it if you cause it too much damage. So chill, dude, and try a different approach, will ya?😕

Back at the green house, Adarsh babu smiled (OMG!)😲when a curious Komal woke him up to have a chat with her patidev. Adarsh babu actually smiled at his wife (well not a full blown smile but at this point even a trace of it is a welcome change from him) She wanted to know what kind of girl attracted him. Let's see what Adarsh babu had to say, tick, tock, tick, tock! Oh, no! E leo, he didn't know, had never given it a thought. That explains it, no wonder he has been walking around with that confused and stern expression on his face all this time. Not one to give up easily Komal stated her opinion on the subject to get some answers from him. Adarsh gave his philosphical response that people should wear what the like and that one should never judge a book by it's cover. Now, just wait a New York minute! Did a Saxsena just say that? 😕😲Adarsh babu went nighty night🥱 but Komal just had to know if he saw English movies.Hmmm! Adarsh affirmed he did and told Komal to stop the questions and get some zzzzzzzzzzzs too🥱. The wheels were turning in Komal's head as she made plans.

Back in their bedroom Krishna saw Prats sleeping in his favorite chair with a pillow in hand. When Prats answered Krishna that she had not yet broken her fast after the vrath, he brought her a thali of food. Was that the love for his beebi coming through along with a glimmer of mischief in his smile that hinted at a prank he had up his sleeve?😉 Badmaash!😳 Prats smiled, pleased with Krishna's serving her a meal, the caring side of him she had been missing since the courtroom dramabazz. Krishna patiently poured the dhal (or was that saambar?)😛 over the mound of rice. Just when she was ready to take her first spoonful, he pulled a surprise on Prats and closely watched her reaction as he topped the meal with a generous sprinkling of red chili powder. If that was supposed to be a prank it's not funny,dude,😕a bit sadistic to do that to her when she was breaking a fast. It's confirmed, he is definitely the offspring of SS and Amma. SS should stop asking Amma if Krishna is his aulad after all. Prats won this round of truth or dare and ate the whole plate of rice, OUCH! and the look on Krishna's face was priceless. His wife had outsmarted him on this one and he may have figured out another piece to the puzzle that was his beebi.

Katra Naresh woke up from a salicious dream about Arushi and swore at Kesar. The big bad wolf was making plans for an encounter with his prey yet again. Enough said! We didn't need to see this after the overload last week. Let's get a move on this track, shall we?

Back at the green house, Komal asked Adarsh to fork over some moolah for her plans to get him something special. It's time for Adarsh to take notice spend some quality time with his beebi and teach her how to finger count. She is whiling her time away at her sasural. Nainaji vetoed Prof. Shamu's concerns about Komal spending large amount of money.😕 Komal was all set to have her makeover. You go, girl!👍🏼 We are about to see the beautiful swan emerge after her makeover to knock the socks off Adarsh babu! Alright! Let's see if that will shake up the otherwise stoic beta of the household.

A cheery Prats dressed in a bright yellow saree reflecting her mood brought some garma garam chai for Krishna. She gently woke him up in a chirpy voice brushing his hair aside. Was it the other Takur brother's turn to have a beautiful dream? 😉Or did Krishna look practically stumped and confused lying in bed? 😲Prats offered to make Krishna besan ka halwa as he liked sweets. So do we! Prats, forget the besan ka halwa, beta. How about some garam garam baadam halwa that we've all been waiting to be served for a very long time now. Is this a hint that good times are coming up roses for the Mr. & Mrs. Baba very soon?

Preview: Arushi tells Prats she would go back to the green house first thing in the morning while pounding away with a large wooden stick. The Senior Takurs were set to return and she wanted to get out of the hell hole, Good idea, the sooner the better, you've overstayed your welcome.

P.S: What happened to the food Krishna brought Prats? Did she eat it or was that saved for a flashback moment for another day? Prats was unusually chirpy and happy the next morning, how could that be if she had ingested the chili rice? She was also pampering Krishna who didn't seem to mind her waking him up. What's up with Mr. & Mrs. Baba's unexpected behaviors? Adarsh smiled at his beebi who had plans to knock him for a sixer soon. It's her little secret and can the Saxsenas handle the shock of Komal's surprise for them? Let's hope this week focuses mostly on the young couples for a change.

Now it's your turn to BOLBO, so please get to it.

Great Post Mera! I guess you saw a cut version of the show today. After they showed Krishna mixing chili in the dal chawal, he gave it to Prats and said here eat it.

First she stared at him, then thought "If you want me to do this for you, I'll do it".... and she proceeded to eat the whole plate of spicy dal chawal while staring at Krishna, with a pretty much blank expression.... or somewhat hurt expression. Baba stared back thinking "dhat teri, yeh bhi is ne kar liya chup chaap!" 😆

I'll try to give you a link if possible.

Thankoo elle.

Just went to youtube and checked it out. The edit didn't make sense on the site I usually watch it on. I juse edited my original post. That explains why he didn't glare at her when she woke him up the next morning and he seemed a bit confused about his beebi. After eating all that chilli rice if she can smile so happily the next morning, she can stomach anything he dishes out to her. Right? Was that supposed to be the message from that scene? Loved that stumped look on Krishna's face. He thought he had stumped her and got the tables turned on him. Let the fun times begin.😳

Now that I rewatched the scene again, it's not a blank expression. It's actually a sad, hurt expression.

This scene now marks the conversion of Krishna to Sajjan Singh..... It was very reminiscent of the scene where SS forces Amma to eat salt 😡 And he was just watching! I did expect some more emotions to be shown.... as in, her eye's should have been tearing due to all the spices, but she still wouldn't ask for water, and Krishna would see this and feel guilty. But none of that happened.

Thank God he was somewhat guilty in the morn at least!

Meera di 😊

Lovely post

Krisha was being too much today I can understand his anger but his actions cannot be justified, it unfortunately reminded me of something his father would do, according to me he was simply being childish he wanted to hurt his love the one who caused him so much pain. I have read it was a test but I have my doubts he was just taking his frustration out on her he wanted to prove to her that she was just doing nautanki but got caught in his own trap when she proved him wrong. This was the aftermath of his speech to her earlier on when he stated everything she did was a lie even her tears, he wanted to prove it nothing else. I loved how prats accepted his challenge though and ate the food while never taking her eyes off of him, Krishna looked on in disbelief and later on seemed to feel bad. the abrupt end to the scene annoyed me I expected Krishna to feel bad and get her some water, take the plate away from her anything that would shown his concern but I was disappointed.

According to me when prats stated he could have at least stopped by the temple since he was already out it portrayed her acknowledgment of the fact that she was no longer his first priority though she is mistaken due to his behavior. I preferred this dialogue if she had said she was disappointed it would have achieved nothing Krishna would have been happy to have achieved his goal, and at the moment he hardly cares about her feelings because he needs her to clear his doubts first.

Komal was too cute loved her scenes today I was also quite shocked to see Adarsh smile he seemed almost normal today she's having a good affect on him hopefully her makeover will help him to change his personality he is a bit boring.

I don't' even want to talk about Shakti's dream it was disgusting in fact I skipped over it completely unnecessary they just wasted our Kriya time.

Krishna's expression in the morning was priceless he was shocked at how normal prats was behaving I found it ironic Krishna offered her chilli while she offered him sweets, it seems like prats has decided to win her husband back with patience, understanding and love, she will only speak when she believes the time is right. With amma and SS returning this Arushi and Shakti track will finally be quickened and we will get a break hopefully though the outcome is helpful to Kriya and gives Shakti what he deserves because it was painful to watch and we deserve to get something out of our patience.😊

Thankoo Binnyji

I was looking more at the tone of their first convo. today. Goes to the heart of how we behave in relationships. Prats's point was basically I asked you nicely, you went out anyway, you could have come for a little bit. Notice how that angered him. But when she said I understand my actions have hurt you he felt a little bad for a moment until he saw her tears and came back to tell her to stop the acting and just be grateful he let her stay in the house.

It's a fine line here. If he pushes her for too long and too much it ruins the relationship. She was slow on the uptake to begin with so her realization took a while. Baba is a bit of a hyper guy so he will fish for answers and want them fatafat. These next two weeks will be interesting. I think the 200th episode will highlight something on the show, Arushi's wedding may not be it unless the family shows up this week and the wedding is a week away. But at least with SS and Amma returning Katra Naresh's plans will go tel lene for good. He will never get a chance to get his hands on her ever again esp. since she is going to get married. But who knows what they do with it.
