The episodes currently are a little messy because of transitioning between the sub-tracks of this track. I really hope TEI production team brings in some better editors and probably shoot a week's worth episodes with a different director. The episodes credited to Santram Verma were far more better then the episodes credited to Rakesh Malhotra in terms of execution. Rakesh i's IDMB page credits him as an assistant director to couple of movies which explains the rush in transitioning. Soaps and Movies are two vastly different mediums.
Coming to the episode, today the final strike has stricken made between Kunj and Twinkle. The conflict that had been developing between the two, Twinkle' stubbornness in protecting Kunj is going to create the taint in her and Kunj's blooming relationship of 'love' that hadn't been tainted with Yuvraj's deceitful marriage. In other words, today's episode was the shadow of a calm before the storm strikes havoc on Twinkle and Kunj's love. The true test for Kunj has only just begun. Keep in mind that in Twinkle's war, Yuvraj is testing Twinkle by putting her in a position where she has to constantly check on this new solider fulfilling his role and paving his worth.
The episode picked up from Twinkle donning Goddess Kali's avatar to bring justice to her marriage. At this point Kunj and Twinkle's different pathways are becoming more prominent now. Twinkle stands besides Yuvraj as he is beaten by the ladies and there slippers. She shows him the mirror, by calling out on his over-confidence. I didn't do an analysis of EP 218, however it was very clear in that episode, that Twinkle's steps are just as much intense and calculated as Yuvraj's. However the defining contrast between twinkle and Yuvraj is the way they present their ideas. Twinkle stands by right, and Yuvraj stands by his own ideals which are typically wrong in every single stance.
Yuvraj's escape from the torment which he is facing through reflection of his own deeds is begged for from Anita to Twinkle. What strikes in the scene is that Anita begs Twinkle, however previously when Twinkle was pushed in such a situation however through wrongful speeches, her mothers and her husband protected her. Twinkle stands at pedestal that is higher then any of the character's. She is right, she is innocent and she doesn't stand for injustice. Towards her, and her loved ones. Twinkle is a lioness and a lioness goes to the extent of ripping out the other animal's flesh in order to keep her family safe. Twinkle's motive is to break Yuvraj's junoon by showing him his own ugly reflection. It is not a way of redeeming Yuvraj, but breaking away the last purpose of his life. > What is more dangerous is that after this powerful defeat, Anita would be the one to strike. Since donning the avatar of Goddess Kali from Goddess Durga, it has not been Yuvraj who has been Twinkle's opponent. It has been Anita. The next attack that Anita would wage after this track ends, would be more dangerous then before because Anita would no longer have anything left to loose. She has lost her public image and she will lose her family.
Yuvraj and Anita both wore shades of blue signifying the mother-son duo's isolated position. The negative conniption that the blue carries is isolationism and deceit.
The episode proceeds to the three mothers sitting opposite Kunj and Twinkle. besides the mothers, the scene was more important in noting Kunj and Twinkle's positioning. While Twinkle sat opposite Bebe and on the couch, Kunj was opposite, in between the mothers and on the backrest of the couch instead of sitting on the seat. Twinkle is driven with a motive but Kunj is driven through his love for Twinkle and he would till his last breathe fulfill his vow to protect her and guard her regardless of her approval or disapproval.
In between the conversations, Leela mentions that Yuvraj would not take the blow to his pride and ego very easily and rightfully so as Yuvraj is driven by his obsession to acquire Twinkle and that obsessions stems from the fact they he feels as if his "Twinky" has been stolen from him.
I loved how the scenes correlated with Yuvraj addressing Twinkle as ungrateful and unworthy of his love while Kunj declared that the next stunt of Yuvraj would lead Yuvraj to being punished further on and in a more brutal manner to his ego. Yuvraj needed prove of Twinkle's love in the first few episodes itself. He has treated her like a puppet of his instead of a human.
The war between the men has begun and the recent promo that has aired for tomorrow's episode and May 13th, 2016's episode will come into play.
Leela leading everyone out of the darkness through light of her phone signified how Leela will be the one to keep the families united as her position is that of an advisor to Twinkle. Using her means of communication with Kunj, Leela would be protector of the families while Kunj would have to mend his communication barriers with Twinkle by standing by her and leading her through the darkness.
I didn't analyze EP 218 however in the episode, Kunj leaves his phone lying around prompting Yuvraj to use his phone to text Twinkle to come downstairs. Phone is a means of communication and like before every war he has waged, Yuvraj has altered the communication between Kunj and Twinkle. > The location of date to which Kunj brings Twinkle has a swing present right underneath the heart signifying the unsuitability rocking Kunj and Twinkle's relationship. Twinkle wearing Lavnder instead of darker shade of violet or blue indicated her fragility and sensitivity coming forth. Twinkle's anger is still consuming her however the raw spiritedness of Twinkle has unearthed her compassion, kindness and innocence to a far greater level as well. Her love didn't have any bounds before however the fragility of her relationship with Kunj and her decisions driven by anger would put her in a compromising position where her love for Kunj will end up hurting Kunj and only the realization of the impact she's had on Kunj will allow Twinkle to stop.
Before going further, I want to highlight that Kunj called Twinkle "his legally wedded wife" implying that the legal aspect which I had mentioned earlier has been taken on by Kunj and he has managed to keep the their marriage in eyes of the world intact by holding Yuvraj answerable. It also indicated that Mahi's return would be marked soon as she is the "lawyer" that Kunj requires for Twinkle's justice.
I'm going to quote the verses of the song that played just to keep up with how the song sequence holds significance before the path of Twinkle and Kunj separates until the end of this track;
Aaj Agar Milan Ki Raat Hoti...
If tonight would be the night of our meet
Jaane Kya Baat Hoti...
Then it would be really grand
Toh Kya Baat Hoti...
It would be really grand
The first verse plays after Kunj comes closer to Twinkle and tells her that the moments spent this night between them will be there's only. Twinkle rushes towards the candles away from Kunj. There are four rows of five candles signifying the last step left to take in their relationship to fulfill the union of Kunj and Twinkle. Four being a number of stability and five being the number of divine completion. The divas/candles implied on the light of love both Twinkle and Kunj have for each other.
The break in between with Yuvraj driving towards them implied on Yuvraj being the one to finally enter in between Kunj and Twinkle and Kunj's insecurities coming into test as he is forced to face them once again this time but without Twinkle by his side. Kunj's unwavering belief in their love would be the one to lead him out towards Twinkle.
Sunte Hai Jab Pyar Ho Toh Diye Jal Uthte Hain
I've heard that when one falls in love, lamps start igniting
Tann Mein, Mann Mein, Aur Nayan Mein, Diye Jal Uthte Hain
In the body, in the heart, in the eyes, lamps start igniting
Aaja Piya Aaja, Aaja Piya Aaja Ho...
Come my beloved, come my beloved
Aaja Piya Aaja, Tere Hi Tere Hi Liye, Jalte Diye
Come my beloved, only for Your sake, these lamps are burning
Bitaani Tere Saaye Mein, Saaye Mein, Zindagaani
I want to spend my life in your shade
Bitaani Tere Saaye Mein, Saaye Mein...
I want to spend my life in your shade
The verses played with Twinkle and Kunj circling each other and completing their own circle of love. Twinkle allowing herself to be twirled and to be held and protected by Kunj in the dance steps and then resting her forehead against his' signified how Twinkle has already devoted herself to Kunj since she had touched his feet and that Twinkle's anger and her fight is for him. Twinkle yearns to unite to unite with Kunj more then Kunj himself in this instance particularly. The verses speak of Twinkle unsigned her love for Kunj as strength for herself in her own war.
Kabhi Kabhi, Kabhi Kabhi, Aise Diyon Se, Lag Hai Jaati Aag Bhi
Sometimes due to these lamps, fires can also erupt
Aaa...
Dhule Dhule Aanchalon Pe, Lag Hai Jaate Daag Bhi
On clean clothes, stains are bound to come
Aaa...
Hai Veeraanon Mein Badalte, Dekhe Mann Ke Baag Bhi
Even the gardens of the heart can turn into barren lands
Theses verses come as Twinkle seats herself on the swing signifying her fight and her decisions in this track leading her and Kunj's relationship to be rocked. In the first line, Kunj is behind the swing indicating how he will try to warn Twinkle about the extent of her love for him burning him, himself. Twinkle's most despited quality by Kunj is her ability to sacrifice herself and in this fight where Twinkle is out to destroy an obsession, she can put herself in danger by destroying Yuvraj completely. Twinkle's attack is so powerful, that once that power absorbs on its own, it can suck out her happiness as well.
In the second line, Kunj sits on the swing and kisses Twinkle's shoulder signifying how after understanding Twinkle's drive, Kunj will seat himself with Twinkle in order to try to work on their relationship. The kiss on the shoulder indicated Kunj asking her to share her pathway with him. Twinkle runs off but is pulled back onto Kunj's lap, indicating that Kunj will fight for her love by standing by her because of his love for her.
The strain that there relationship will bear because of Twinkle's anger will create a rift between Kunj and Twinkle on such a level that Kunj himself will be forced to question the purity of Twinkle's love for him if she refuses to respect his wish of not seeing her in pain she's purposefully putting herself in. The last tine of these verses hold a lot of power as one action of Twinkle towards her own punishment to Yuvraj will raise more questions in Kunj's mind and will test him once again to be able to blindly trust Twinkle.
Sapno Mein Shringaar Ho Toh, Diye Jal Uthte Hain
If one's dreams are decorated, lamps start igniting
Khwaahison Ke Aur Sharam Ke, Diye Jal Uthte Hain
Of desires and modesty, lamps start igniting
Aaja Piya Aaja, Tere Hi Tere Hi Liye, Jalte Diye
Come my beloved, only for Your sake, these lamps are burning
Bitaani Tere Saaye Mein, Saaye Mein, Zindagaani
I want to spend my life in your shade
Bitaani Tere Saaye Mein, Saaye Mein...
I want to spend my life in your shade
Twinkle will not be fighting for Kunj's approval however she will come to a stand still after declaring her love for him. Twinkle goes to just as many extremes as Yuvraj and this time, her reaction for her relationship with Kunj will include her unwavering belief in her own love for her rightful husband. She rushes away from Kunj when the verses plays and runs back towards the candles with Kunj following her and picking her up and then placing her right in the middle signifying that there relationship would survive the distance and wounds inflicted upon it. The last two verses are repeated in the end in male's voice indicating that Kunj would make through the test Yuvi has laid out.
I don't want to touch on Yuvraj showing up afterwards because there's definitely more to the story then we saw in the last six minutes. Him smacking Kunj unconscious was significant of Yuvraj's reaction to the mirror of his own ugly reflection Twinkle has begun showing him by focusing on Twinkle entirely in this last phase. Yuvraj doesn't need to compete with Kunj anymore because it is Twinkle he wants ad if Twinkle herself is not proving herself worthy enough, Yuvraj can only drown her out in his own fire by killing off her love for Kunj forcefully.
Yuvraj's junoon, his obsession drives his works and he cannot let that obsession be taken away from him and the only way to keep the obsession and also keeping Twinkle away from Kunj is to immortalize the situation. I would elaborate more on Yuvraj's act tomorrow as today was just a preview of the extent he can go towards after seeing a reflection of Twinkle's love which is ONLY for Kunj.
The episode highlighted mainly on Twinkle driving herself towards the edge as well and letting her anger consume her to such an extent that her and Kunj's relationship would be going through the most brutal test yet. It also brought to life the reality of Twinkle and Kunj's love for each other. Kunj's is selfish for Twinkle's happiness while Twinkle is ever-giving.
