Naan vandhuthen, chuda chuda updates and ellarukkom sweets ode . . . π After a looong time, it was a truly happy episode and boy am I thrilled to bits that it's my turn today. . . π Yaam petra inbam, peruga ivvaiyagam . . . π So here goes . . . π
Written Update
Episodes starts in Ranima's house, Thenu and Swami at the dining table while Sara ironing in the room (Yen Sara, ni antha orey shirt'ah ippadi mathi-mathi iron panna, yeppa antha shirt ni pothe vellaiku kelambarathu, doubt ah irrukke yenakku . . . π) All three discuss when would be an auspicious day to open their restaurant and all 3 manage to discount each day of the week with some reasoning or the other π. Ranima enters and tells them she has met the priest at the temple and picked Friday as the most auspicious day for Swami to do the opening ceremony as he is Mithuna raasi i.e. if it hardship comes to him, it comes in spades and if happiness comes to him, it also comes in spades. Thenu concludes that since Swami has seen hardship in spades, it is surely now time for him to see happiness in spades π. (That's one smart girl, I like her . . . π€) Rani agrees saying just see how the business takes off but Swami counters saying he does not have any big ambitions, as long as everyone is happy, for him that is the biggest profit and he is happy as he is selling sukku coffee (Suttham! ) Ranima says that's not done as she must buy a car by cash, not loan and go to the market and buy groceries in it π€£. (Guys, you have to hear Ranima's description of her car, absolutely hilarious, and no, I'm not going to add it here and spoil the joke for you . . . π) Swami fixes the opening ceremony on Friday and asks Ranima who to invite to do the inauguration. Ranima rushes out excitedly from the kitchen but before she can say anything, Swami cuts her off saying not to suggest Vani π‘. Rani looks disappointed but covers by saying they should invite Mahalingam, the restaurant owner who helped them. Swami and Sara agree saying he's the most suitable person as he has helped them a lot (Swami, I'm surprised that you said you never thought of inviting Mahalingam, but then again, neither have you been grateful to Vani, and Sara, you said the family wouldn't have managed without Mahalingam but Vani's the one who had carried your family on her shoulders all these years. Whatever it is, I'm just glad there was no Vani-bashing by the father and son duo today, antha alavakku thirunthunathey yenakku perum magalchi . . . ππΌ) Thenu follows Ranima outside and asks her to admit she wanted Vani to do the inauguration. Ranima admits but brushes it off saying if Sara can sacrifice Poo for Swami, this is just a small adjustment for her and anyway Vani's blessings are always with them ππΌ. (I love Thenu's witty comebacks but most of all, I love how she is the one person after Vani who truly understands Ranima . . . π)
Night time at Vani's house, Devi calls Bhoomi on his mobile, he pretends that there is no signal so he can leave the room and speak to her without Vani listening. As usual, Devi oppari that she is a burden to him and she feels like dying (No words, only action please . . .) and as usual, Bhoomi says it is his responsibility to her π€’. He assures Devi he will sort out the Vetri matter (Rombe mukkiyam! π‘) and tells her to have dinner and sleep early. Vani asks Bhoomi why Devi called so late but Bhoomi makes some excuse that there was some problem at work and she wanted to resign but he convinced her otherwise. He pretends to sleep so Vani will not question him further. (Liked Vani's sarcastic comments and skeptical looks to Bhoomi, this is one smart woman and I forsee that she will to the bottom of this Devi saga very soon . . .)The next day, Devi is late to work and her phone is switched off, Bhoomi is about to leave to look for her but Devi arrives saying she went to temple and forgot to switch on her phone. (What I don't understand is why is Bhoomi behaving so suspiciously when it comes to Devi, if he feels what he's doing is his duty, then why not tell Vani and be done with it, ugh, how frustrating . . . π‘)
Mano comes to MOM's house to invite Poo-Karthik for mareveedu. Poo is reluctant to even leave the room and Karthik tells her not to make an issue. Poo comes out but is rude to Mano ππΌ. She refuses to go for maruveedu. Whole family advises her but she is adamant. Karthik tells Mano he will bring Poo and not to worry. MOM and Megala tell Mano this is between the husband and wife, let them sort it out, Karthik has promised and he will definitely deliver π€’. Poo fumes. (You go Poo, loved your sarcasm to Mano, he deserves it, and Mano, I have no sympathy for you although you have been receiving dose after dose lately, you deserve it, and Karthik, I just hate the sight of your face yaar, need I say more *puke*cringe*vomit* . . . π€’)
Friday at the restaurant opening, Ranima does the cooking aided by the cooks (Haiyo, Ranima pannara halwa'ah partha yenakkum breakfast'ke halwa sapdanum pole irrukke, intha nerathukku halwa'ke naan yenge poven, mangga boyfriend kittayum ketka mudiyathu, morning time'le halwa ketta paiyan over-imagination panni over-excited aiythu over-react pannithanna . . . π€£ Haiyo, halwa . . . π) Sara and Thenu busy with preparations, Swami waiting for Mahalingam, and the priest (not the standard serial priest with the smart phone, ivar yaaro puthu iyer'ah irrukkare, usual iyer vera serial'ku date kuduthetharo, pavam rombe busy pole irrukke . . . π) (Aaha, intha paragraph'le update'ah vide yennode comments than athigama irrukke, ok ok, back to the point, Shree serious . . . π) Sara's boss arrives and so do Selvi and Rajesh, all in happy mood. (Loved the nakkal dialogues between Thenu, Selvi and Ranima here ππΌ but Sara, yen da unnode boss'ah kuttikitte ippadi kuruke-neduke alinjikitte irruke . . . π) Swami gets a call from Mahalingam that he is unable to come due to an emergency so Swami suggests to get Sara's boss to do the inauguration. Ranima agrees but the disappointment on her face is evident. Prayers are conducted and all leave to have breakfast. Rani stops Swami and drags him to the counter and tells him to pray and be seated, Swami is shy but at Ranima's insistence, he prays and sits at the counter. Episode ends on an absolutely high note with Ranima and Swami's ecstatic faces. . . π Thodarum . . .
What a wonderful episode to update βοΈ, Shree khush hua π, if today is any indication of how things will progress hereon for Ranima's family, then I'm eagerly awaiting subsequent episodes π, Swami jeykanum, thirunthanum and ellarum kuda santhoshama irrukkanum . . . *Shree's fingers and toes crossed for him* π
