as he sat lost in thought
Going over the events of the evening
The tinkling of ghungroos gently invaded his thoughts
Drawn to the sound he stepped out only to be captivated by her graceful form
Her dance did not seem like a celebration, it was a dance of pain - a cry for love
Mesmerised he watched her, and every movement of hers, every chchan chann of her ghunghroos
Revived memories of the days when he wooed her, when he had held her in his arms,
As he neared and she stopped held close to him, soft and husky almost in a whisper he asked
Yeh Kya kar Rahi ho?
This was no annoying wife who demanded her place
Nor in this moment did she seem like the scheming mercenary girl who had destroyed him
And nor was she the confused puzzled Chandni of Allahabad
This was a woman sensual beautiful confident yet tentative
Proud self assured, yet aching and hurting
All Dev could do was stand and watch, soaking in her beauty
Breathing in her fragrance and revealing in her touch
And follow her steps, allow her to lead and unknowingly dance with her
To the music of their souls - o re piya...
She professed her love honestly and sincerely
There was no deception, no guile, and so much purity
Dev felt all this in her confessions and I think he also knew that while
Chandni started out by telling him how to manage his new relationship
She ended by opening her heart to him,
Her tender kisses, her words of love
Her hand gently traversing his face - full of love!
And for once though Dev was silent
She felt no rejection, she felt the communication
She knew he listened, and he reciprocated the love
He hurt with her pain, and they were in unison!!!
If our CVs are capable of this, then why in the hell were we given pigeon poop and chicken shit?
Or mera laddoo, Tera laddoo?
Any way no shikva, no shikayat aaj
And the rest of the episode - bhool gayi sab kuch. Yaad nahi ab kuch
Bas ke baat Na bhooli...
Beautiful Dev Chandni scene -
And te two of them looked so gorgeous - dressed in black, bathed in gentle moonlight,
Their voices soft and husky - everything was perfection -
So Aaj 10/10 to Chandni
10/10 - to the entire creative team
