Thoughts on Redemption Hullabaloo! - Page 3

Today was a pretty brilliant episode! I loved everything about it & though Hitler Daadi may be a pain in the ass, she is helping this story move forward and finally the "raaz" will be unfolded! Arnav is basically a junior daadi! I can see the Malik family had a trait of bitchiness and ruthlessness which genetically transferred on to Arnie but I can say that the banda has changed or at least I hope he has gotten a little bit of buddhi now after the Shyaam fiasco and not trusting Khushi that there are things beyond what you actually see...

Back with my edit 😃

Firstly Tanuwa, beautiful post sweetie, loved the way you summarized the episode & the episodes that led up to it so far. Fabulous job. 👏

Before I forget, I know we ALL LOVED Arnav today, but I also want to take a moment to clap for Devyani Raizada today. 👏 👏 I just loved the way she gave it back to Subhadra Malik well & good. Tum toh hum sabko chhod ke chali gayi ashram mein, bachhon ko humne sambhala, and now you have the nerve to come back & question my motives & techniques. Screw you!! Naniji take a bow. 👏 Loved you totally for giving it back to daadi a punch square in the face.

Same goes for Arnav bitwa, aap kis haq se mujhse javaab maang rahin hain?? Yeah man, when she left you & Anjali high & dry to remain aloof from the family in her ashram she forfeited all rights to question anyone, period. She deserted the two kids who would have needed her most when they lost their parents, when they lost not only their parents but were also summarily thrown out of their home without a roof on their heads she has the nerve to come & ask questions and throw her weight around?? Why the hell isn't she taking her erstwile son to task for throwing these kids out of Sheesh Mahal in the first place?? I believe Arnav's chachaji who was responsible for throwing them out is still very much alive?? Why the hell doesn't she question that good for nothing slime bag for kicking these children out of their home?? And she has the nerve to accuse Arnav that he is being like his father and should take his dad's name with respect, hypocrisy much 😡

You're right Tanu, couldn't have tolerated the much beaten down path of redemption for ASR. He is ASR for nothing, he does things HIS way. He is constantly redeeming himself since the day he has gotten back from the kidnapping IMO. Agreed, he lost his cool once & in the heat of the moment blamed Khushi for all the problems in their lives, but he instantly regretted it and is trying to make amends. He knows he messed up and is bending over backwards to please her. His methods & techniques aren't always conventional but his heart is in the right place.

Way to go ASR, fight for your wife's rights & give it back to her on a platter. Make your daadi eat her own words, she deserves nothing better, will do the world of good to her to be brought down a few notches IMO.

Thrilled with this track, CVs please bring it on. Was so terribly missing this angst & intensity, good to have it back. Waiting to see how Shyamu now stirs up the pot further. 😃

@ red -- I see Nani's doing in this. I for one am really glad that Arnav & Anjali weren't left at the mercy of Hitler Dadi when they were at their most vulnerable state.

Yes, his plan seems to have been to get her back at RM first, and then wooing, redeeming, repenting and all that jazz.

@Bold: Aww look at Jen Ben explaining symbolism. That is actually very true. Except the fact that the whole FB was screwed up, that scene would have been perfect if they had the dori ripping scene's FB. But leaving that aside, the look of pure vulnerability on his face when she is unwrapping the gift, shows how he had basically offered her his heart on a platter and ws waiting with baited breaths to see what she would do with it.

Naani rocks, she is never pyaar ki dushman. IPK is pretty epic in a way that all the old folks are total phangirls for ArHi. I want dadi to morph into one too..😆

As far as sharing woes is concerned, it will happen Jen, he is about to cry in her arms. Imagine, the great ASR crying in Khushi's arms. Again, slow gradual steps, loving the pacing of it all.

Thank you for the reply sweets..🤗

I missed your posts, as always brilliantly written and explained!
You hail hope, I still lack it, the sceptic of this show I am.
Actually I wasn't before but now I am - I think the past few weeks have been weird, really strange and out of context I think the only redeeming episode was the Rakhi one and the one after with presents then the morning scene happened and ruined it all!

As for ASR his acknowledgement is all we can expect and I guess his redeeming quality is the way he protects her in front of others even if he can be douche to her himself.

I genuinely want to see an acknowledgement of him telling Khushi it's not her fault Shyam went creepy and duped her into engagement forgetting his own marriage. I think only then will I full make peace with this track😆 Eat. Back. Your. Words.ASR.

However, I reckon if Dadi Raizada accuses Khushi of something similar, like her enticing Shyam, then only then will the reality of what he said to her hone in. Moment that happens, my love affair with IPKKND will once again resume.

I have the naafrat paas aane na de, mohabhat dhoor jaanena de equation with the show currently.

HI Ladoo,

I get to read all your insightful posts which have become very rare lately or maybe you have not been inspired enough to write daily. Due to a time zone difference I do not get to respond to you but for some reason today everything seemed to click...my timing and a very good episode.

The last track , as far as I understood was - I have to WIN Khushi back and not WOO Khushi back. All Arnie wanted was to have her back , by hook or by crook. Did I misunderstand ? Maybe we did hence his tactics of getting her back did not work for us. He never had a plan and neither does he have one for the remaining days of the contract. It will have to be Khushi's decision in the end as to what she wants , will she want to fight for her marriage , even if she thinks her husband is a stranger at times or will she give up coz now added to the mix of Anji not wanting her around , dadi too does not approve. Arnie is playing his part on redemption ..will Khushi allow him to so ...is to be seen.

The new dadi track..yesterday it seemed as a saas-bahu drama , though it may still head that way , what was needed was some one to challenge Arnie and question his decisions. His quickie marriage , his throwing out Shyam ...and his past . Today the biggest and the best revelation to me was about How Arnie has changed ? Not only did he stand up for his wife he allowed her to enter his private territory of his thoughts . Everytime Khushi would talk to him and place a hand on is shoulder , instictively I was looking for Arnie to shove her hand away...and that never happened. What a change...and to take responsbility of the gunshot wedding to his and his only is teh Arnie I have always wanted to see...

Terrific power packed episode and like you and most of us in the forum are crossing thier fingers that this is here to last and not jumping to comedy very soon. I will not hold my breath for too long on that but lets wait and see.

Finally just a persoanl bit ( Growing up I had a small teddy bear , chochcolate brown and extremly cuddly. I had named it ladoo...still have it...when I see your handle ..i am so reminded of it ) Just something silly i wanted to share.

Take care.

Yeah Naani was quite useful when it came to Bitwa, so Naani ji zindabaad!! But LOL that is true, Jhalli was immune to the buddhi Daadi offered! If Daadi raised her, I think I would need to take a tylenol everytime she popped on my screen 😆
