nice post di,
but have to disagree with 2-3 points..Disagree away !! 😊..............one, K didn't ever became JKG or weak.........No , He did not become a JKG ..he was well on his way though ...but the CV's woke up and thrust that Job track ..but his character has been weakened [ my POV] .we saw how he avoided working even hen P and all his family members threatened, insulted and even pleaded with him............he may have bowed down infront of love more than one time, but he has been doing that from the beginning , he has been insulting his family for P before and after SR , has been granting her every wish before and after SR , the only diff is he literally stopped being available to the outside world , unless ofcourse if anything concerns P, which he admitted that he loves to be at her side all along, which is in line with his character , lazy, thinking of love and romance all the time, no seriousness, no sense of responsibility , thinking that he is the KING and all has to do his bidding and all that ..Agree !!............the CVs just elaborated(stretched) on his lazy, irresponsible, child like side a bit, its just that ..........more precisely every man is like that in initial days of marriage or SR ..No, They are not !! ......he is called 'mugdh'.........all he can see is her, all he care is her and all he values is her, and he will do anything for her..This is not mugdh..this is adoration, a blind one at that !!..........men in honeymoon phase would do unimaginable things to please his wife and here the man in question is K who would do literally anything for P, and i think the CVs brilliantly showed it....From this..I gather u r not married ..........infact for me K is one of the most brilliantly researched and portrayed characters i have seen on TV,..have no dispute in this ..he was ..but he is no more !! the only time when K was not K and P was not P was when they stood meekly letting KN-A marriage happen and P accompanied kesar to get A to KN's room...............and in the JOB matter he didn't even relent in the name of love or trust.....he repeatedly lied , even after realizing his mistake he tried to wriggle out of it instead of admitting it and when P would have been the one who should be demanding answers for his bad behavior, he turned the table so masterfully and sudenly P was the one giving explanation, and he was the one demanding answers...............its only when confronted with the panic and pain of loss of his babu , that he made a sincere effort............like SS said to amma, K only does things if he feels like doing it.............he won't listen to anybody, when amma was going on about how P is making him do things...........and supporting his wife won't make a man weak ............infact a man is weak when he fails to support and help and 'be there' for his wife when she needs him ..the restoration of Krishna began ..then slid, then began ..so fits and starts happening ....Supporting a wife is not a sign of weakness..supporting blindly is !!
second, Pratigya didn't say she knows the taste of people, instead she clearly said that jelabi would become sore and bad if kept till evening while gulab jamun is not like that, it could withstand the test of time ie atleast for one day .. jalebis last 3 days in open air while Jamoon requires chilled air ..what is my point is ..she would not be knowing anything about hotel mgmt..and one cannot arrive at menu without preplanning .........which i think any one would know..........and regarding k not knowing or counting on university road's weak points, i think it was to project that k was not fully into this work thing and he is doing it only for P...........he is asking her wish, her opinion in literally everything bec he wants her to be happy, not that he is genuine about hard work...........his mind is only full of her smiling face, and he is taking all pains to assure that she is happy, and when he sees she is OK with all the arrangements, he is happy............he is enthusiastic, the sincerity level is not up to the mark.....see, he is doing nothing but bossing around like he used to do all the time........see ..one need not have to ask P for everything to make her happy..P wants him to work and not seek her nod in everything ...so this total lack of self thinking is not something that is understandable in someone like Krishna ..had Adarsh done it ...can relate but not Krishna whose street smart exp is much better than P's .i think once the dabha is engulfed in fire , he is going to realize some home truths about what it takes one to build a dream and act on it, how hard it is to live ur dream..................he better be !!
and third , the chemistry is still intact, atleast for me............(and i am sure for many too) [ not for me ..] ..the physical comfort has increased .. now there is a new dimension to their relationship ...............they r now friends.Not Yet !! They are further away from friends..they will be when Krishna ses her as a woman............the failed attempt to be friends when they returned from the adda last time was past................ they didn't even make any attempt to be friends who share everything, talk it out and then move on when they were fully immersed in passion and both of them treated the other with 'u-won't-understand-what-iam-talking-about' attitude...........and if some argument comes up they would shove it under their cot and will be in each others arms again...........but after the gun shot, they have started talking and discussing and sharing and the bond of friendship which was lacking till now is cemented between them now...........so now they talk , smile , hold more freely much like lovers who r also best friends...............Agree they have began a discourse ..will wait for convo
