Abhi Mujh Mein Kahin...
Baaki Thodi Si Hai Zindagi !!
What a Mind-Blowing episode...Superb..so Gripping & so engaging 👏👏👏. It made me hold my breath, in anticipation of whether Arnav would come or not...what will he choose, will the fire be fully doused before he comes, & would the rock-solid...oops I mean the Diamond-solid (as diamond is the hardest substance) faith & trust of Khushi, which made me admire & respect her even more today, be wavering & losing by the end ??
For the first time may be, It was Sanaya who stole my heart through her performance, over Barun, that too in a clean-swipe !! She was outstanding today 👏👏.
Loved the Childhood Flashback used in the beginning...Superb Creatives 👏👏. Such a meaningful, apt & metaphorical flashback!! Perfect play out of the situation !! Lets Rewind & see how beautifully it suits the situation & what all it symbolizes (in bracket).
The moment kid arnav sees his mom hurt, his first reaction is to punish the whole "pot" - the whole plant (symbolizing the whole Gupta family today) in his anger, without giving even it a thought to that it was Only the Thorn (Garima & his father) which had caused the pain, not the Flower (Khushi & their love). So what does Arnav's Mom tell him, that he crushed the flower which was just a lovely bud, which would die if he plucks it apart,& its needs all the care & love for it to blossom beautifully!! However, Arnav replies in anger, that anything that hurt his mom, he could never love it (or Her in present case) !!
Then his mom goes on to impart a very important lesson, that whenever one doesn't understand what is right or wrong, whenever one is at cross-roads in life, one should always remember one thing - that One should never hurt their loved ones, who are close to their heart!! Like in that case, it was mistake of only the thorn, not the flower, but still arnav punished even the flower & ended up getting hurt himself too!! Nobody should ever be punished for the mistakes of someone else & should never hurt those whom you love or who love you back, coz If you do that even you end up getting hurt in the process !!
Wow...what a lovely message 👏. It told arnav that his & khushi's love is in budding stage, which requires lots of love & care to blossom and that he himself would get hurt in the end, if he irrationally, in his uncontrollable rage, decides to punish khushi & their love, for the mistakes of garima & their father.
Although, this FB ended with the line of arnav that for him no one else is more important than his mother," I dont Care!!". However, how well this dialogue would play out its role in the case of matured arnav, is yet to be seen!!
I believe, this flashback had an important role in clearing arnav's mind, putting him on the right course making him remember how Khushi - his bride, who had no mistake in all this, is waiting for him at the altar & propels him to make a move towards her!!
Today the Flashbacks of Khushi which Arnav had were chosen so brilliantly ..each one was Bang On!! Superb work director & the Post-Production Team 👏👏. They made me revisit Arnav-khushi's whole journey right from their first meet, & how their relationship grew manifolds.
An important thing which struck to me was, that none of the FBs were romantic, rather all of them depicted how Arnav & khushi have always cared for each other, how they have been bonded & held to each other, & how the moment separation even seemed a possibility, it was their Saanse Ruk Jaayengi or "Fark Padta hai" Moments, & them reaffirming their trust on one another!!

Whether it was the Rain-Hug, the Guest House incident, the bangle scene, or during the kidnapping track when Khushi reaches out to him, running away with him, & hugging him fiercely when she found him, Him running behind the ambulance fearing khushi in it, being scared that he had lost her, when khushi got badly worried for him on payal's mehndi day when he was missing for just a day - It all depicted their Utmost care for each other & how they feel as if their life would stop at even the thought of being away from each other, just like khushi explictly stated in Airport FB that "Fark Padta hai" coz if he goes away her it feels as if her breaths would stop!!
While the FBs of the Teej fast breaking, the symbolic engagement, their marriage in the temple, Him sharing his thoughts on his mom with her whether he would be happy looking him & finally khushi's affirmation of how strongly she believes in him& in his love, all showing how deeply & strongly they are & had been always bonded to one-another!!
His flashbacks ended with the worst sight that he had encountered, Khushi falling off the cliff while trying to save him, that was the moment when he had thought he had lost her forever...this scary thought, this FB of Khushi being away from him, clouded his mind so much that he had no idea of where was he, where he was driving, leading him to lose control & ...BAMM!!
However, not a single FBs had any close or romantic moment. Neither the intimacy on bachelor's party night or Diwali night made an appearance, Nor any kisses or any other Rabba Ve moments did!!
This portrayed that the factors guiding his decision were deepest care & love for each other, trust, need of togetherness & the fear of separation, Not coz of any guilt due to the physical intimacy they've had & nor due to the charm of their attraction!! Loved the Post-production team for making such a brilliant & thoughtful selection of scenes, showing how wonderfully their relationship has strengthened, moving much beyond the mere pull & attraction for each other, beyond the Rabba Ves!!
Excellent Analysis. Thanks for this. I've been scanning the forum (quite obsessively, I admit) for any analysis of the flashbacks, and here it was!! 😊 I wondered about why the CVs had chosen this particular constellation of FBs, and was particularly puzzled by the Teej FB, but after reading your post, and a second look at the clips they all begin to make sense.😊
