Le ke Jayegi jaan...oops #Timeout|KuKu|KaVik|AT 4 Nt Pg129 - Page 98

Damn! I had forgotten what amazing actors they both are. The video below gave me one heck of a reminder.

Love the concept of this video!

The flashback insta post reminded me of all the times Kunal insulted Kuhu, he used her and broke her heart. The more I remember, the more I'm disappointed at the fact that he's never properly apologised to her (correct me if I'm wrong). We understand that Kunal has now 'accepted' Kuhu, for lack of a better word and Kuhu was never a 'victim', she gave it back every single time. But Kunal was horrible, really horrible and sometimes I can't see things from his pov.

I was always under the impression that KuKu had conversations through voicemail. I didn't realise she's responding to his one voicemail. Makes me wonder if Kuhu might've told Kunal about the pill fiasco on the way back from the resort and his response is to avoid her as much as possible.

Not going to lie. I'm trying to remember all our discussions but more importantly, the episodes. I know I have already said this quite a few times but my memory sucks so much right now and I absolutely hate it. I used to be a person who had amazing memory and now, I don't anymore and that is really very jarring and annoying at the same time. (Sorry! I needed to get that out)

We had come to the understanding that Kunal had liked Kuhu since he met her on that deserted road after Holi. Kuhu brought out the Kunal that liked to tease and flirt and was maybe lost after Shweta broke up with him. He decided to put his friendship on stake with her for Meenu's plan to keep Mishti away from Abir (we saw that in the scene before the RVs go on to stop Kuhu's rishta with Australia return Saurabh). Blah..blah..blah.. marriage happens...he reveals the truth...feels super guilty and wants to leave Kuhu so that he doesn't have to live with the guilt of deceiving her (He mentions to Meenu that she ruined both their lives and then went on to fix MA's rishta). Before handing her the divorce papers, we saw quite a few scenes where he behaved normally and was cordial with Kuhu when his anger/guilt calmed down. The divorce papers were final nail when he realised that there was no other way to stop MA from uniting and saving his brother. (I'm sorry for narrating the whole story. I'm remembering things as I am typing.)

Just going to list out events now: KC...acceptance of the fact that MA are going to get married...MA GD scenes☺️...Card ceremony scene where Kuhu says that she wished he would have given their relationship another chance too which we see him giving after the leap... amazing angsty scenes...birth truth...Kunal goes into Nanko mode making Kuhu feel alone and making her realise that the divorce is his second (or even, last) priority because first priority is always Bhai...haldi scenes...divorce reveal...decision to get married again...marriage...romantic and jerk moments (leaving Kuhu at multiple occasions to be a spectator in his Bhai's life)...pill fiasco... Kuhu's birthday...holi and resort.

Okay, so what we had understood from all of this was that Kunal sees husband-wife as a single unit and since, in his eyes, he himself has been the last priority so Kuhu takes a similar place which is basically after everyone's happiness is taken care of. Kuhu has definitely been the most badass, flawed, and super-amazing human being. The only thing she wanted from this relationship was some effort from Kunal's side which we didn't really see him put in. He didn't involve her in decisions that would indirectly affect her life. So yeah, he still needs to redeem himself big time because he is not forgiven! And if he still keeps taking her for granted, he deserves to be left alone with his work, and Kuhu should get another guy who sees what an amazing soul she is and treats her like the queen she is!

P.S. if it wasn't clear before, I will clearly state it now that I am so so annoyed at Kunal for taking this girl for granted who stood by him and his family whenever he needed her.

P.P.S. I was thinking the same about her telling him about the pills but I think Meera told us during the LU that she might not have when Abir questioned her. I am yet to see that episode so can't say anything for sure.

I think Kuhu is not that stupid to be calling him everyday & telling/ranting to him about almost everything if alls not well between them

so until there is a huge misunderstanding, Kuhu contacting Kunal daily in response to his just 1 voice-mail in 3 months doesnt make sense

I mean Kunal must be responding to her rants atleast sometimes thats what has made her keep going in her responsibilities towards the house else she would have been atleast annoyed at him

currently her only complaint from Kunal is that he is busy & unsure about his return

He may not necessarily be not talking to her. They may well be on talking terms but he still could be mad at her. Kuhu voice messaging everyday could be a way for Kuhu to bring a sense of normalcy and move on. 🤷

@Aqua:

Thanks for reminding me how we have come to see Kunal.

Sometimes, I'm clouded by Kuhu's pain and suffering, especially when I see some of the edits out there, that I go back to being really mad a Kunal.

There's so much potential with these two. I just hope cv's can do a little justice. Itna bhi kaafi hoga.

I just cant stop laughing🤣🤣🤣

No worries! I guess it's just much easier for us to relate with Kuhu and that is why we forget that Kunal has had his fair share of growing up to do as well.

IKR?!! There is so much potential and unpredictability in their story. I kind of like that there is still so much about them for us to discover that we can't really predict their story. It is what has kept me hooked.

Re. voicemail: I am not really sure if she is replying to a single voicemail or whatever. I feel his voicemails have become her ranting space. She rants about everything that she can't say out loud to someone. Who knows if he even listens to those or not. I think Snow's guess might be right that Kuhu told him about the pills fiasco but I also think they must've made up because Kuhu would be really worried about her marriage otherwise. We'll have to wait and watch for what happened between the two of them.

That being said, it could be as simple as what Sam said on TCC yesterday, "Kunal is probably lonely and overworked and doesn't have the emotional capacity for Kuhu's venting. Kuhu is also lonely and overworked and doesn't have much to say to Kunal except for venting".

Can we just talk about that scene when Jasmeet Chachi came in today and Kuhu almost instantly broke down?? 🥺It's scenes like this that make me wonder, how can people not see that Kuhu isn't the complete villain that everyone loves to hate? How can people not see her motivations? How are people completely unwilling to empathize with how she feels, and how are people unable to put themselves in her shoes and see things the way she sees them?

I've always believed that trust is built with someone who shares things with you. I personally cannot trust someone who I confide in, but when it comes to their life, they never confide in me. It makes me feel cut off and somewhat embarrassed, truth be told. Like, I shared something with you, so why do you not think of me as important enough to share something with me? I believe that this is where Kuhu's distrust of Mishti comes from, especially now, when so much of what Mishti is doing is affecting the family dynamic greatly, and she isn't even letting Kuhu in on what's wrong.

The argument that Mishti can't trust Kuhu to tell her this secret of hers, because Kuhu will turn it around and use it against her is frankly bogus, in my opinion. Yes, she is extremely protective of her position in the family, and she wants recognition for her work, but that doesn't make her void of compassion and empathy. She is the same Kuhu that swallowed her feelings for Kunal when his rishta went to Mishti. She is the same Kuhu that comforted and supported Mishti after Abir broke up with her, she is the same Kuhu that bent over backwards to get Mishti and Abir back together, and she is the same Kuhu that, after learning of Meenakshi's stunt that got Parul in jail, forgave Abir for not showing up to meet Mishti. Her character did not do a 360-degree turn. Her feelings of resentment and distrust were just built up over three months of Mishti and Abir's absence, and the absence of the one person that would normally give her a sense of security. But how would anyone know that? We've been given a deep insight on what Mishti and Abir went through for three months, but apart from the occasional tear or two from Kuhu, were we ever given background on what the past three months were like for Kuhu? No. So instead, we were left to fill in the blanks. And if someone started off liking Kunal and Kuhu, chances are they were more optimistic about this. But if someone didn't, chances are they filled in the blanks with a picture that painted Kuhu in the most negative light possible in order to fit the current narrative that the show is apparently trying to sell.

So I guess my question is, what is the intent when it comes to Kuhu's character? It's interesting to think about, because the writers seem determined on not making her a character that completely alienates the entirety of the audience, but at the same time, they've pushed her to a brink that seems almost irredeemable.

In short Kuhu is a punching bag for the writers.She is kept in stand-by if a certain track fails to give ratings.Track flop ho gaya chalo kuhu ko aur negative karte hai.I lost interest in the show
