Totally Random thoughts about today's epi: 29Mar11

I am bored...just generally bored today. As a result I have some very random thoughts, questions and observations about today's episode.

• Was it me or did they go on and on about how good the pulav was? How good can it really be..pulav is rice and veggies? There is only so much you can do with it. Or were they so hungry that it didn't matter what was put in front of them they would have ended up licking their fingers. Naani mentioned it 3 times. Chirag went on about it and then of course Koki took the opportunity to take some digs at Rashi and praise Gopi. Is that really how you manage bahus and relationships in a family? Regardless of how perfect the bahus are, that kind of behaviour/favouritism would give birth to jealousy in any relationship.
  
  
• Then Gopi - what can I say about her. She is so needy. Any praise she laps it all up. But she gave this special smile to Aham before moving to naani to serve more pullav on an already full plate. *shaking my head*
  
  
• Did anyone else notice that Aham was eating the pullav by hand when he was licking his fingers then after Gopi served him some more he was using a spoon...hmmm. Bad continuity. It was the same as the holi celebration the colours on the actor's faces was different in each shot. Messy.
  
  
• What was with the head massage? Do normal grown up men really have their mom's malish their scalps? I was a bit creeped out by that scene...or is it just me and my North American sensibilities that don't understand? It's no wonder Naani keeps calling him a mumma's boy.
  
  
• Was all the teel malish a very cheap way to get Gopi to grab Aham's hand and didn't really mean anything?
  
  
• Why did Aham (yes golden boy is back) turn to look at Gopi before he left his mom's room? Are we to believe that Aham feels something for Gopi. Am I the only one who is having a hard time with this?
  
  
• Loving the relationship between Urmi and Kinjal. Like the way Kinjal sticks it to Urmi.
  
  
• Dhawal is a total male Gopi. Love the way he calls Kinjal - Kinjalji...Moving forward I christen Dhawal DHOBI!
  

• Why is Gopi's tied back hair back? Is the makeover well...over?
  
  
• At the end again Naani and Koki take another opportunity to sing Gopi's praises. I know Gopi probably needs all the boast to her self-esteem but I am getting cavities listening to it all and starting to feel sympathy for Rashi. Okay not quite!
  

Overall I found the show a bit choppy today, they were all over the place. I guess they are moving from the Holi track to the tender track and the CVs don't know how to do that smoothly.

I must say however, at the end I liked how Aham and Gopi exchanged a couple of looks after they discovered there was no newspaper delivery. Otherwise it was same old same old for me.

Please feel free to add your 2 cents or paise to this thread!

hmm i agree with u shelly, this time the similar thoughts were on my mind too

You said everything - Did you also notice the colors on Ahem body from holi. Thanks for the post - loved it .

• It wasn't only you who noticed...even I was getting totally PAKAV by the Pullav praises...I was wondering if they could parcel me some so I can get a bit of taste out of it...
• I see how they waste their food 😭 shame shame especially on Nani for taking more than needed
• 👏 You got an eye of an eagle to notice that I guess Ahem changed his mind in the middle as he remembered ke mujhe toh ungliyaan chaat ni hai 😆
  
• North American sensibilities 🤣 I couldnt agree more...even I though it was weird but then again I live in NA so I think it might explain my ridiculed expressions...

If that was supposed to be romantic or something it certainly wasnt it creaped me out actually wit Gopi grabbing hand and Ahem staring at koki😕
The CV's are giving us hope 😳 hopefully he feels something
Loving the relationship between Urmi and Kinjal. Like the way Kinjal sticks it to Urmi⭐️ I can give the two an award for the way they bother each other with such ease😆.

Dhawal is a total male Gopi. Love the way he calls Kinjal - Kinjalji...Moving forward I christen Dhawal DHOBI! 🤣 Very well said

• Why is Gopi's tied back hair back? Is the makeover well...over? I was so disappointed by this * sighs*

Sorry ... missed the colour on this body...but his face the shape and size kept changing.

Hi, Shelly, finally watched today's epi, I am in danger of developing diabetes from all the sweet praises for Gopi, once or twice was enough and Ahem obviously thought so too, because he was shaking his head like here we go again, is gawar ke praises once again,.

Will come back to you. Thanks for adding all your observations!!

hey this was done 2 make it seem dat rashi doesnt know any thing about the kitchen n gopi knows everything...... kokila had 2 make it a point n show off her prized gopi vahu.... chirag sang praises for the pulao not for the person who made it.....it was kokila who praised gopi time n again.....n we all know how kokila is n takes pride in her gopi vahu...... n nani she was praising rashi first when se thought she made it n after dat she praised gopi n dat too she said the pulao was finger licking good..... dat's it....so it made perfect sense n no character change.....

• Then Gopi - what can I say about her. She is so needy. Any praise she laps it all up. But she gave this special smile to Aham before moving to naani to serve more pullav on an already full plate. *shaking my head*
  

yaar if a person does something good u will obviously praise them..... n this praise make them feel good...... n makes them do things like dis in d future too...... so obviously she would lap it up.... it's human mentality to do dat..... n she didnt smile at ahem if u notice it properly she was smiling at kokila...... slowly the girl gopi...... she is coming out of her ahemji obssession..... but she is taking it very slowly.....i know she said she cant live without him...... but she was under bhang .....n her inner desires were coming out.... but her mind has stopped giving those signals 2 her..... she doesnt even look at him properly sometimes....

• Did anyone else notice that Aham was eating the pullav by hand when he was licking his fingers then after Gopi served him some more he was using a spoon...hmmm. Bad continuity. It was the same as the holi celebration the colours on the actor's faces was different in each shot. Messy.
  

it was to potray dat he doent want 2 ick his fingers again n get teased by dadi.....

• What was with the head massage? Do normal grown up men really have their mom's malish their scalps? I was a bit creeped out by that scene...or is it just me and my North American sensibilities that don't understand? It's no wonder Naani keeps calling him a mumma's boy.

head oil massage- i get it dne by my mom aunty sometimes n sometimes my dad helps me dry my hair by rubbing my hair n head with the towel for me...... sometimes i myself have done head oil massage for my bro dad n mom.... so nothing creepy in dat...... it's just dat the person from a child to the time he is an adult also is still a momma's or dad's fav kid..... nothing wrong in being like dat..... shows how much of affection they have for their parents......

• Was all the teel malish a very cheap way to get Gopi to grab Aham's hand and didn't really mean anything? dat was a normal gohem scene given 2 please us.... whcich some may take it as cheap...
  
  
• Why did Aham (yes golden boy is back) turn to look at Gopi before he left his mom's room? Are we to believe that Aham feels something for Gopi. Am I the only one who is having a hard time with this?
  

dont know wat 2 say about dis... we cant expect a lot from him dat too so soon

• Loving the relationship between Urmi and Kinjal. Like the way Kinjal sticks it to Urmi.
  
  

picture perfect n correct duo....

• Dhawal is a total male Gopi. Love the way he calls Kinjal - Kinjalji...Moving forward I christen Dhawal DHOBI!
  

• Why is Gopi's tied back hair back? Is the makeover well...over?

pls don feel sympathy for rashi..... if she had done her job well instead of plotting n being greedy.... then she would have been the one hearingf those praises....

Hi! Loved your comments.

Though it is still quite common for men to get their head oil massaged by their mum. I come from an extensive punjabi family that is well settled in the UK. All the men in my family and in laws enjoy it when their mum gives them a head massage. Though I do stress as well that they are not mummy's boys!

So I dont know if it has to do with a particular indian background / race. Please do comment.
