I apologize this week has been rough on me in Real life I was not in sync with Reel, but yesterday evening I got to release my stress by hanging out with my 2year old niece for I am back to normal, kids have so much energy n joy to spread.

Now Back to My Rant: Analysis & Assumptions

December 20th Akshan Scene Cake Analysis

Akshan Relationship is similar to process of preparing, baking, decorating Cake because it's about Balance.

Yesterday I enjoyed Akshan Scene as a baker who has experienced with cakes, disaster n perfection, I loved entire conversation of AJ with Guddan regarding balancing. Sometimes in a cake shop & store, two people complete a cake, one is the baker and another is the decorator. In the relationship when a woman (top layer-outsider) marries into the new house, her husband becomes her foundation (base layer) it is duty to inform his wife about the Rules & Regulations of his house, her Sasural. In a marriage woman is the one who decides in what value, culture, how, why, when, where, what time n place she needs to decorate her house, marital bond, n guide her husband.

Revati baked a cake, it was Guddan's responsibility to decorate the cake but she didn't knew how to decorate it, n ended up getting icing on her fingers due to her careless.

^ 1st Proposal Deal

Lets go back to September, when AJ first proposed to Guddan in front of Krishnaji's mandir, he was offering her the Fully Decorated Cake, all she needed to do was cut a slice of cake and enjoy it but she refused called him Mad n told him to join a mental hospital. She refused to become his Trophy Wife & India's Youngest Saas, "Ek Uncle Se Shaadi Humse Na Ho Payega!!!

^2nd Proposal Deal

After completing his share of the deal where he got Pervy suspended, AJ proposed again "Shaadi Karna Chatha Hu, this time remembering her Vaada an reluctant Guddan accepted. This time too AJ offered her Fully Decorate Cake, he gave her all the luxuries (clothes, jewelry the best of what his money could afford) On her engagement day he made it all Fairy Tale for her indicating even in Name she will be treated like Princess, she will just have to be his wife in Public & Saas for his Bahu and he will stand by her and support her. But what did Guddan do she listen to her future Eldest Bahu Durga Kishore Jindal, she toppled her Decorated Cake in the garbage by running away from her Sangeet.

Akshan Scene 1 AJ is standing in the looking at cake, Guddan childish, laughing, smiling comes from behind puts the Horns on his head, and he turns around. She tells him now you look like Devil he doesn't shout.

^ This symbolizes and summarizes what Guddan did to AJ and thought about him so far. Since the first day she thought of him as Villain/Devil because according to her he married her by kidnapping her sister with cunning planning. The truth is she married him by Dhoka, he wasn't unaware of the fact. When he is in office neither Dadi nor she is making him aware of the Kitchen Politics. In the Josh of Youth, Guddan was to stubborn to ask for help from AJ because their marriage had lots of rocky bumps. Right now Guddan is 50-50 she was only fulfilling the duty of a married woman for the sake of Shaadi Rituals bounded by the 7 vows, sindoor & MS. AJ always thought of her as immature, careless, not thinking before taking action. He is also 50-50 because he is doing his duty only as responsible Head of the House, and she bears Jindal Name.

First Impression of AJ by Guddan

On the Surface: Strict, Hitler, Khadus, Ravan, Devil, Sarv Gunn Sampan, Mr. Perfectionist, Akshat Jindal ko Galti aur Galtiyon Karnewalon Se Nafrat Hai!!

Inside: In his own way he values and loves his family a lot, he was broken n lonely man but after the chit kand he is changing. Guddan learned that he is not what he seems, he is also hurting from the inside, he is not perfect, the guilt of not saving Antara was killing him until he didn't share it with her and she didn't judge or question him, she tried to help him take out his pain n ease it. She respects him, cares for him, admires him, looks upto him n copies his actions, she is his reflection, she values the hardwork that he has done to earn his Respect, Name, Money & Fame. For her he is Mr. Perfect!!!

First Impression of Guddan by AJ

On the Surface: Rude, Loud, Bubbly, Chatterbox, Careless, Nonthinker, Joking, Her Family mean the World, Happy Go Lucky, Always Smiling, Galti Ki Dukhan, Always takes Guddan Tumse Na Ho Payega as a challenge

Inside: He has grown used to her, he cares for her, he has attraction and affection for her, rules for her totally different then for others because after all she is his Mrs. Guddan Akshat Jindal!!! Imperfect but Perfect!!!

Outside

On the surface spectator may see beautiful decorated cake but as you cut deeper you may realize how two different layers top and base layer joined together with icing and filling to make a perfect cake. Perfect cake has to be not only decorated n balanced from the outside also balanced from the inside as well with the right moisture, texture, taste not too sweet not too sugarless, each bite you take should take you in the world of pleasure n guilt that you cannot eat daily because fear of weight gain or diabeties. Sometimes the taster of the cake forgets the hard worker that the maker/baker put into their time, hard work, love and care in preparation in baking the cake and then decorating.

From the exterior, Guest at the Christmas Party may have different POV of Akshan Marriage & As Couple:

1st Onlooker may see a Buzurg Middle age marrying or landing himself a Jawan Khoobsurat Biwi enjoying all the pleasure of marital bliss, they are perfect, have all the money and luxury that it can be provided, no problems can come their away etc. Similar to Perv-he thinks marriage is about the Physical bond- that why gets beaten physically

2nd Onlooker different POV: A cunning Jawan Ladki trapped a Middle Age Business Tycoon in her Jwani and in her Mohe Maya, she did a Kala Jadoo, she became the India's Youngest Saas for Name, Money, Fame, Luxuries. She is Greedy, Smart, Cunning, Opportunist, Home Breaker, etc (All the Aunties that visit Jindal House, 3 Bahus)

Akshan Scene 1 continued: AJ asks and points to Guddan at the white cake on the cake stand, she said on the surface cake, he notices his wife finger and how she has cream on it. He goes near the cake, explains that dressing is meant for decorating the cake, Guddan says don't worry when its finished it will be ready n then see the Guddan Ka Jaddu. AJ explains Guddan this not Magic, but over confidence, when we do a work without thinking it's not called hard work but it's Silly. He says I am not saying that Tumse Na Ho Payega, but you can do it. AJ explains to his wife, instead of talking much, try to concentrate on listening which is impossible. But now show me your magic, and I want to see how you decorate, and he wishes her All the Best. He leaves from there.

Chance 1: Always in Akshan's marriage, AJ the husband as always given Guddan the right to take and make decision to prove her point of view whether she is right or wrong. But now she has to stop reacting and responding on Peoples words and think about how she want to prepare and shape up her life. Sometimes to make something be presented beautiful whether its marriage, cake, a piece of art, you have to do lots of planning, thinking before taking any actions before you ruin it. Till now AJ was the observer, not completely in the picture when Guddan took her irrational decisions without thinking before doing them: Card Party-where AJ traded seats with her, Restaurant Kand mess, Key Careless- Indirectly.

Akshan Scene 2: Guddan is trying to decorate the cake but her Tiara falls on the cake, she yells in nervousness, n AJ who hears his wife's voice, goes to see what's wrong. AJ comes and sees his wife Tiara fallen on the cake, she is nervous n explains what happen in superfast speed that I was careful that I don't make any mistake. AJ tells his wife, I see the mistake of your costume, your costume took your Tiara from the head, placed on the cake.

^ Guddan Tiara falling from her head indicates that in the future she will be stepping temporarily down from her crown, her position as Queen & Lady of The House Mrs. Guddan Akshat Jindal and leaving her RajMahal. In one way Tiara falling can also can relate to how Guddan willingly just to please her Eldest Bahu Durga Kishore Jindal, handed her right as the Lady of the House to her Bahu by giving her the House Keys. Right now she was thinking but not thinking about the pros and cons of her action. She was showing over confidence thinking of pleasing very one and keeping them happy. Right now she wasn't ignoring the 3 Bahus n letting them run her over, if insulting her makes them happy so be it. In the future when she returns she will be having confidence, she will be alert hopefully keep her hubbies words in mind about planning n listening.

Akshan Scene 2: AJ tells Guddan, your sister put lots of hard work in making the cake, you had to decorate n not ruin it.

^ This can also indirectly hint towards the hard work and efforts that Guddan put by being the Lady of the House, all of her mistakes was forgiven by AJ when she returned Antaras portrait n fulfilled her promised.

^Cake is a dessert that takes lots of patience to make, you have to have the exact measurement of both the dry and wet ingredients, and there is order of putting n mixing the ingredients, if you skip a step your cake will not turn out perfectly. After mixing the dry ingredients with the wet, you have to be careful in beating the cake with beater, n having the right constancy of batter. Not runny not to thick, we then fill the batter in the pan, tap tap, bake in the preheated oven for 350 Fahrenheit or 180 Celsius, for the proper time. After its done you take out the hot cake-they are fraigile, you have to be careful, n then you cool cake for 10-15 minutes then flip on cooling rack, let it completely cook before fixing the cake, evening the layers, placing on the decorating platter, then planning to decorate, decorating n giving finishing touches.

^Similar to marriage, if one couple who has strong bond and relationship in their Marriage, doesn't mean it took them 2 minutes like Maggie to cook or 3 hours picture. A relationship starts with friendship over the year build n filled with respect, affection, care, concern, mutual understanding, respecting each other's POV without changing the other spouse POV, he can be right in his way, while she can be right in her way.

Akshan Scene 2 continue: AJ is blabbing n Guddan places her fingers on his lip, they stare n have eye lock, but he removes her fingers from his lips, a nervous Guddan says Please Help her in fixing the cake. All the guest have arrive, cake should arrive on time. She holds her ears and says Sorry.

Once Guddan understands her own value, what she wants from her life, n how she wants to lead it, she can approach AJ. All AJ wants from Guddan is to understand her mistake and find a solution to it so in the future she doesn't commitment the same mistake. Its foreshadowing, after she leaves the house on her own will, whenever she approaches AJ he will lecture her but she will silence him in her own style n Chatterbox way but will apologize him for something, n he will melt, he cannot stay upset with her or see her in tension. But he also has to realize her value, and what she means to him.

Akshan Scene 3: AJ has taken off his jacket, started decorating the cake, while Guddan is not paying attention looking outside and she is the onlooker while her hubby is the decorator. AJ looks at her, tells her to concentrate n pay attention to his action. AJ explains that Guddan making cake is an art, maintain a balance is important, if the decoration is not balanced properly it will make the cake sink, and if balance is proper the cake will be proper in looks. He continues while looking at Guddan, if chocolate is extra it will not bring sweetness but bitterness. Guddan says yuck.

^ In front of Guddan and for her AJ has taken out his jacket show that for her he is willing to remove the outer layer of his shell that is filled with coldness, Hiltergiri, n present in front of her with his normal hidden self who is has patience, gentles and time to explain about anything to her. AJ is not taunting her for correcting her mistakes, but he is helping her and trying to make her understand about having balance in her life. She cannot be sweet or too strict, also its about how she is going to balance out being the Bahu of Jindal Bhavan while also being the Beti of her Papa Bushan Gupta.

^After Durga's upcoming Kand, even though Guddan will leave, my assumption is after realizing Guddan importance and value in Life, AJ will be the official decorator he will come in front from the back and lead. Right now he was the supervisor of all the actions n decisions that Guddan has taken, and he came to her rescues when she needed him (Diya Making Kand, Rhadee Kand, Card Party, Kidnap)he will show explain to Guddan on how to properly handle the situation that may arrive in the future.

^Right now Guddan is the extra sweet chocolate, her extra goodness nature n not having a firm hand with her Bahus, in a way lead her to be in this predicament that why her Goodness becoming bitterness for her Bahus. She should reminded them she is the SAAS not a BAHU.

^ Currently Akshan relationship is sinking because Sweetness (Guddan) is trying to overcome Bitterness AJ, n vice versa also. Now both AJ and Guddan will have to balance each other out in their POV and nature. They have to talk and plan together how they want the Jindal House to be run by, as the FIL & MIL what rules should they had etc.

Final scene

Outside Guddan is bringing and presenting the cake on the trolley, AJ is walking behind her sort of on looking that any upcoming disaster is prevent.

In the far future, not only to the outside but inside AKshan will be a couple, but AJ will always have his wife's back n be on the lookout for any danger coming her way.

My Final Rant

Yesterdays AKshan scene was short and beautiful. Mr. Akshat Jindal is becoming an normal human being again, he had content on his face, he was amused with wifey, he was teasing her regarding Tiara falling down on the cake. He wasn't irritated or frustrated, he was relaxed in the presence of both of his wife Kitchen n Living Guddan Akhat Jindal.

🤗 first hug lo u deserve it for writing so beautifully.

Ur rant are the best
Amazing analysis as usual

Even I felt cake decor scene had some symbolic hidden in it .

Aj explains to have a balance in making cake
Right amount of heat right amount of sweetness etc ...


Aj has always been so his cooking and life theory has always been so perfect
Initial scenes showed the way he managed his staff and his cooking methodically.

He was perfect and will always be .

Problem with guddan is that she takes life as a joke and ppl lightly
She is naive and ppl take her for a ride
As u said she is too sweet which leaves a bitter taste behind

About the coming episode I feel before coming back guddan goes through process I feel well trained by aj
Before aj make her mrs and accept her as wife he will mend his relationship with her .
Before all these love between the couple needs to be worked on
Since he is the matured one he will take the lead

What I felt seeing the cake scene
Her throne falls on the cake and it gets messed up
Her life gets messed up ...
She feels helpless and walks away of his life to please others
But aj will set right things .

The beautiful icing on the cake needs concentration
icing means he will fall in love with guddan
Decorating it beautifully meaning he will love in such a way even guddan can't refuse it .
Here the love will not be based of any majboori, money or deal it's pure love
As we know guddan is child she only gets it when u treat her like a kid
If u scold a kid it won't come to u if u show love it will cling to u like a glue

Same thing aj will show love towards guddan were she can't refuse.

We have seen aj calm yesterday even though she puts a horn on his head
Seeing her messy hand he was calm

After the chit scenes seems his healing part has already started
He has some road blocks which will vanish after she walks out
Confusion about her being goldigger will be cleared when she walks away without the bag which durga sheth offered
I feel he might get the clear pix about the wedding kandh slowly

When the clouds of mu clears off there is no looking back
Guddan not around will make him restless and realizes her importance in life and the love hidden inside.

So aj will be leading force in love he will sweep off her feet like a king and win her heart

When they accept there love that's when he will have an authority to take her back to his nest were he wants her to be

Later comes her balance act
Coming to aj he has something for guddan from the first day he met her her lioness attitude really impressed him may be he thought then she will be perfect to handle these 3 monkeys.
Slowly he realized her lioness act is only for him not for rest he saw a kid in her and slowly lost the faith in her but after she goes away he will feel it's his duty to train her to be lioness to this world too .
Here his words might come true he said he will make his wife stronger to fight the odds and him too.
To make her a queen he needs to give his heart to her first
I feel love starts now
Let's see how it will shape off

It's always a fun reading ur topic U wrote so beautifully I would say this is best of u

Hi Shena thank you for your beautiful compliments 😳
No I am not writer by profession😆 my Masi n my mum would be happy to hear that they think I always need to improve my writing. I am only an observer, in Akshan case I am just using real life experience n samples to connect with them. Because some part of reel is inspired by real life. I am getting inspiration from real couples in my family who also went to trial n tribulations but are together.


@ bold Aww that's great, sometimes age gap doesn't matter, it only matters how the couple is together after facing the challenges that come their way😳

The scene where AJ is decorating cake n explaining to her also reminded me of Shiv Parvarti, n then how she was born as Fishermans daughter.
Whenever Guddan comes back, she will be more stronger inorder to handle her 3devils, she is strong but due to being young n respect she is letting every one walk on her.
When she is back AJ will train her to be a proper SAAS

This was awesome dear ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very well explained 👏
I am glad you are back 🤗
was missing you since 2 days 😭

Yesterday marked the starting of AJ's journey in guiding Guddu.
Yesterday he gave his 1st lesson. 😃

While Guddu's journey in guiding AJ out of his misery started immediately after the chit drama when she started to distract him from his grief.😳

Yesterday when they walked together with the cake, it marked the official starting of their journey together 🥳
Since before every new major start of our life we do so with cake.😛

will be waiting for your update on today's episode 😳
