Gandharva Vivah


Tumhain koi aur dekhe to jalta hai dil

Badi mushkilon se phir sambhalta hai dil

Kya kya jatan karte hain, tumhain kya pata

Yeh dil bekarar kitna, yeh hum nahi jaante

Magar jee nahin sakte tumhare bina...


Saras and Kumud:

He declares his adhikar on her

And she loves his possessiveness

Today was their gandharva vivah

A meeting of hearts

A union of souls

His mehendi on her hand

The sindoor on her forehead


I have no words to describe the last scene

It was quite complex wasn't it?

And so unexpected again

So many questions,

so many thoughts



I loved it

Episode rating 8/10

But that last scene - 100/10


Today I am at a loss for words

and awed by what happened

Saras and Kumud see love differently,

yet today they were one,

He declared her to be his

And she surrendered herself to him

Joyfully!!!

Arshi, you have a knack of choosing the perfect song for the situation. Agree with your rating, today was a little mellower than yesterday's. But what can top yesterday??

We start today's episode with another abrupt change of scene after yesterday's last scene. I am not looking for more intimate scenes, I just felt there could have been a better transition from the last scene yesterday to today's first.

Me likey Sunny doing garba with Kusum very, very much.

Me no likey Kumud's outfit today.

Her hair extensions were shorter today maybe because its easier for it to fly on to Raghav's face.😆

His pink shirt distracted me. 😳

Lets talk about the sindoor on her forehead. Totally unexpected. I am in shock and dont know what to make of it. Is SLB reassuring some of us? Dare I hope and dream? Haila.

Samarth, kyan cho tame? What do you think?

If it's a positive sign, toh MR Bhansali, aap ke charan kahan hain?

To be honest, the Radha-Krishna parallels drawn here make me uncomfortable on many levels. SO as usual, I draw conclusions that make me happy. I like it here in my bubble.

Dear lord, Dobo has several issues!! He is super sensitive, has yet to develop a sense of humor when it comes to himself, not to forget about his anger, insecurities and over possessiveness among other things wing to his childhood. He has a long way to go emotionally. The extent of damage is so deep and vast and is not limited to his apprehensions of forming relationships.

I mentioned it briefly once before, I did not like the way Saras, on Sunny's behest used Radha to make Kumud jealous. This is not the Saras we know who was so considerate and sensitive to others feelings. He is changing and opening up. Love and relationships are new territories for him. He is still learning how to deal with all the new and positive changes in his life. I understand all that. He happily passed Radha on to Sunny today. I laughed at what he said and Radha didn't seem to care whom she landed up with but it somehow did not seem right. I saw no remorse or acknowledgement (even to himself) about what he did. Some guilt might be shown later but this behavior feels strange for Saras.

The other day he was so caring with Guman which again felt unnatural. Being respectful and dutiful is different from suddenly going out of your way to be so caring to the woman who has been nothing but nasty, vindictive and caused trouble for him most of his life. I find it difficult to comprehend some of these changes in Saras. Life is suddenly looking rosy because he is in love does not justify this behavior to me.

Guman and Dukhba face offs are getting boring now. But its better than saas-wohu ones. Did the nachaniya plan to frame Kumud for theft or misplacement of her jewelry?

Nobody sees any of Samud interactions in a house full of people???? 😆 Thank you CVs for no peeping toms yesterday.

Oh, I forgot logic is on vacaysun!!

Wonderful post!!!

When the episode started, i found it filler type

Guman scene - made no sense

The Raghav and jealousy - blah

Then suddenly, the last scene was the surprise packet

we had been talking of stamping, and today he formally declared her as his

and she accepted


When he talked about zid to possess her,

it did not offend her, though yesterday she declared the opposite

But today she saw his zid , and possessiveness was his love

yesterday he saw and understood her way of loving

today she saw and accepted his way of loving her

This show is not simple

Arshi, you echoed my thoughts today, that song was in my mind when I saw the Samud scene today and I am in the same mind frame, lots of questions and confused thoughts after seeing the last scene. My mind is not ready to talk about the romance today, I am a bit angry, upset and confused seeing what happened today. I almost have to ask am I seeing the insecurities of a possessive lover or possessiveness of an insecure lover. "Tumhe mahsoos karne ka haq bas mujhe hai", are we seeing a typical male here or possessiveness which doesn't look good for now.
The dialogues "Iska matlab thum mujhse pyaar nahi karthe, sirf pane ki zid hai" and his answer "tum mein me apne aap se zyada vishwas kartha hu" has been running in my mind from the time I saw the episode. Contradictory to each other, what does they want to convey ? And the end scene Kumud having his name written in her mehndi and sindoor on her forehead in front of Radha-Krishna, is it that Samud have accepted each other in their heart or are we hinted on something for future. For now I am just

Not only do they see love differently, Srushti, they now see and accept each others way

Main Kumud ko janta hoon

And she, who declared that where there is jealousy, there is no love

was so thrilled by his possessiveness towards her

Though I really like SC..I didn't like today's episode :/ Maybe Ive a different vision of Kunud's character from what it was portrayed today. Saras' wrath was understandable for me since we all know he is the ultimate possessive lover and as he is new in this territory he is treating Kumud like his propwrty right now which is palatable for me but Kumud ? I really wished she atleast retailiated a lil..I see her as a strong young women who is forward in her thinking and has the self respect quotient etched on her. The whole giving in and blushing didn't work for me and seemed way out of character..quite bad since I loved the last two episodes.

Besides that the last scene was unexpected and seemed symbolic for future reference..am i reading too much between the lines :|

How do they do this each day?

Take it to the next level, such that the fab previous day pales in comparision to today!
saras:
haan tumhe paane ki zid hai mujhme
par tum pe main apne aapse zyada bharosa karta hoon
tumhe mehsoos karne ka haq sirf mujhe hain...
kumud:
meri saanse sun paa rahe ho
yeh sirf tumhara naam leti hain
Deep!!
our dikra is finally all grown up...perfect awareness & explanation of his faith yet his jealousy...but he was finally at peace today...
Also love that now both try to resolve differences immediately and listen to each other...Like Kusum had said..."Kaisa rishta hai tum dono ke beech mein. Ek doosre to takleef dete bhi ho aur ek doosre ki takleef samajhte bhi ho!"...very apt...
felt that today both have become one...and finally jumped off the cliff...and damn the consequences!
also loved the symbolism of the end...the sindoor from the temple...looks like this will be love story with a happy end... Remember the line by Queen Elizabeth from Shakespeare In Love... "For whom the gods have joined in holy union, even I cannot seperate!!" 👍🏼
also loved the sunny - kusum dandia ...CVs listening to us?
also recollect sunny pleading to saras to join in the practice saying mera mamla bhi fit ho jayega.
Need to check if it is what I heard or wishful thinking...
also want to shut up and check out the epi again!
😎

Thats why Kaadal I felt they got married - gandharve vivah, and gandharva vivah has no social sanction

I think just like he understood her kind of love yesterday, she understood that possessive love is his kind of love

It was really complex, he is not insecure, he is confident of her feelings for him, but still will not allow any other man to be anywhere near her

Maybe its a man thing

Samarth had written something like that, about men not being able to handle this very well.

I dont know, i am not upset, just havent been able to figure it out

Nandy, dare to hope or is it a tease..I have this same question and the parallel is what even I said, doesn't make me happy. I am not happy with Dobo either, but thinking about it maybe he didn't think she might feel bad. Maybe if Radha had shown a bit of remorse Saras would have asked for forgiveness, maybe.
As of him caring for Guman, even I thought it like that when seeing the scene but then his character is that he is formal and obedient irrespective of whatever she does. He knows she gets into her nautangi if she doesn't get her way, so to avoid it he seems to just do whatever she wants even if he wants to do it or not. I think he has always been like that as far as Guman is concerned.
Even I was thinking wasn't anyone seeing them sitting cosy and touching hands, kya baat hai..
