DOTW:Dont waste yourself, Raj

Originally posted by: morningdew

I have been watching this show with a marked increase in disinterest, or should I say, marked decrease in interest? Whichever way.. it leads to the same conclusion.. I m getting more and more turned off by this show.. My interest has not dwindled yet But you logic is also right.

 

I had written a post cpl of months ago, wherein the observation was, why does Raj get embarassed during his eye locks with Kranti.. why does he start blushing, and get rooted to the spot, for God's sake? And we had had a hearty discussion on that. I think this embarassing bit is getting too much. he needs to behave like a man enough now, It is understandable that he is feeling guilty, though he need not for such a long time, he ought to be happy for getting acceptance by Kranti but then this blushing n all is too much now. Now I think it is high time that the blushing shifts to Kranti.

 

I reiterate that point again, but in a different light. Earlier it was only the contrived eye locks which turned Raj into a beetroot..Kranti was more sure of her footing then.. he looked uncomfortable. But then scenes where he had those verbal fistcuffs with Kranti used to save the day. Yeah but he is in no mood to fight with her now but stop getting red Raj enough.

 

Since that tabela night, the guy has turned into a complete lap-dog. All he does is stare, drool, pant and loll his tongue when Kranti is around. Maybe thats taking it a bit too far, but then, I AM really pissed with him at the moment. Hmmmmm thats true. But when ever he is secretly admiring his wife it is cute isnt it.

 

Kranti has made it abundantly clear, at more than one occasion that she doesnt need his help. Why cant the guy get the message? Yday, I liked the episode till the point he stood up to her. The moment Kranti dismissed his help, I was actually feeling sick.. with Raj this time, not Kranti. Yeah she did but ena this time it was different I think she told him to saty out of kitchen politics and any sensible wife would do that. I think both of them did a good thing yesterday by supporting each other. She help her ground only after Raj stood by her. If you see her expressions she was too happy and surprised at the same time.

 

The fault doesnt lie with her, she has already mentioned this thing to him a several times, and with complete conviction..she does not need him. PERIOD. Maybe not now, maybe never.

Why doesnt he push himself off? Doesnt he have work to do? Shouldnt he be spending more time in his office? She does need him otherwise she would not have taken any help from him and would not have informed about sugar in the tea. It is just that she is hurt and it will take time for her to come on track. I think that he has realised that and she is yet to do that. She needs him at every step but ddefinitely not to set BBR right which she can handle herself.

 

Talking of self-respect, where's his own by the way? I agree that his emotions have undergone a seachange and blah blah..but shouldnt he be more introspective when it comes to how he is demeaning himself continuously?? I think yesterday Raj had to stand by her as he knows that for sure BBR is troubling her on purpose and none but him can stand by her.

 

 

Raj.. my very strong suggestion.. pull up your socks, and move out of this dirty kitchen politics. Intervene when you are ACTUALLY needed.. dont butt in and make a fool of yourself in front of the ladies of the house. You have more calibre than that, I swear. There was a time when you were so indifferent to whatever happend in the house.. that was one extreme, and this is another.. cant you find a middle path?? Actually agree here as he needs to stay out of this kitchen politics actually though he did the right thing he went a little overboard. But sometimes in practical situations husbands might have to butt in like this for their wives honor particularly when it comes to their families. I have seen it happening practically hence could relate to that. But a little less of speaking would have been better.

 

Let the ball be in Kranti's court, for once.. that would be interesting, to say the least.

 

It will be good if he stands by her and supports her from outside without involving himself in dirty politics.
