Caught the last two episodes after long time, really liked it, and it felt like I was again watching the show from where I had begun to really like it (this whole being a Sahara and rooting for each other vibes between Anurag and Kajol)

In precap he loses his shit at her, thinks she’s doing it out of sympathy, this is such a role reversal, initially Kajol had similarly misunderstood his feelings as sympathy, he was being the Sahara etc etc. if this stalker was never in the show, their characters would have never been butchered also 😭.

I’m glad they’re having a role reversal because now he’s at his most vulnerable, in no position to be a savior, and is devoid of all the materialistic gloss/attraction his character was shown to have so far (like conventional good looks and rich and doctor and all that). Conversely, they’re showing Kajol from her strength rather than placing her as an object of sympathy, rock solid really

All I want at the end of this track when he regains mobility is for them to fight the stalker together, that’s the only just deserts I see, it shouldn’t be just one of them fighting her off both of them should. I think now that the Basus totally have told stalker to get lost, stalker might team up with the Chatterjees or so, send the whole lot of criminals to jail, dowry diggers and thieves and stalkers

I don’t get these Basus and Mukherjees, why do they stay complicit and silent during toxic relationships and engagements(Arjun and Kajol, Anurag and stalker)?

@quickspicy sauce good post esp the role reversal angle & yes I too want to see them both fighting the stalker off because there is no way she will just disappear like that...ohh no no no...Chaterjees esp Nania will join forces with her...want an united Basu household supporting Anurag & Kajol

As predicted the Psychopath will be back once Anurag can walk again, but I wonder who will still be interested in her nautanki by that time. I dont think tht Anurag will start walking within a few days....it will take time and alot of determination from Kajol, becoz Anurag is at his most vulnerable at the moment. And we all know how he becomes once he feels helpless. So it will take time and patience.

And what will psychopath do once Anurags start walking again ??? Again threaten with her police blackmailing shit ??? Who will believe her by that time ???

Her only support system from the Basu household was that old buffalo, but now she has also seen the real face of psycho ??? And in the meantime she will also see Kajols dedication & love for Anurag, so Priyanka lost all the support from Basus now...

So even if she comes back wanting Anurag back in her life, nothing can happen now. And this time I dont think Kajol will back out from fighting for Anurag coz she has seen Priyankas asliyat too now. All this time Kajol thought tht Priyanka was willing to die if she didnt get Anurag, but now Kajol has seen 1st hand how selfish Priyanka actually is...especially after she said that she cannot marry a handicap....

I think this time both Anurag & Kajol will tackle Priyanka with full support of the Basus. And she can join the Chatterjees as much she likes....nobody counts them anymore. They are no match once Kajol join hands with all the Basus

If Priyanka has some shame left, she better not show her face again, but we already know what a shameless bitch she actually is with a mother who is 3 times more shameless than the daughter

@Esha good observations ...we know Stalker will be back but just want to see United Basu.household and Kajol being Basu household see her off & shut the mouths of the Chaterjees...its going to be interesting

Wynn I have watched the precap again ..

I feel Anurag is doing it deliberately because the way he does not look into her eyes ,while saying you doing this out of sympathy..Anurag very well know kajol will do anything for him out of love.

Anurag I think for him being so harsh with kajol is not out frustration but to kind of push her away from him.. He dont want to be a burden for kajol and he knows how much responsibilities she has on her shoulders..

Anyways Anurag himself won't be able to stay without kajol ..This time kajol too won't let go but will keep her promise to never leave him..

How she will shift in the Basu house only option is she is legally Anurag wife..let's see what creatives have for us viewers..

Spoilers already hint though something will happen as Anurag's room is decorated with balloons..

Waiting for next week episodes which I think will be interesting ..

I have not watched the episode since I had no interest in the stalker or dida but caught the precap on Insta. The way the priyanka track was handled is terrible. She should have been exposed for her plotting period. Not gotten a chance to back out and then return later as per her convenience.

I also did not understand what Anurag meant in the precap. Is he actually sad that the stalker left him due to his condition? Didn’t he always spout filmy lines like “aap ki awaaz sun li ab marne ka gham nahi” blah blah at the drop of the hat to Kajol. Then shouldn’t he be telling her ke aap saath hein tu kya hoa agar chal nahi sakta LOL. The writers are just terrible and the characterisations so inconsistent.

Also I really wish we would have gotten another guy in the show for Kajol to cause friction between the couple instead of the dozen vamps stalker, dida, mother etc etc. Maybe then the show would not have reached the state it has where so many people left watching and are now coming back after the stalker’s temporary exit. But too bad, since the show might not have too long to go. Like I said, the damage has been done and like Esha correctly pointed out they had ample time to course correct and they didn’t.

Wynn and agree with you all crazy woman will be back..

I did saw a bts, she is at the hospital with Anurag and pishimoni.

She is a pyscho and will keep track about Anurag ..

There are two options..Mother daughter comes and starts their usual drama knowing anurag is getting better..

one thing they will be for a good surprise esp if kajol is already Mrs Basu...Even if kajol is not yet married to Anurag this time Anjol bond will be more stronger..It will be good to see them give pyscho some reality check and kick them out..

Second one creatives redeem her character ... she accepts all her sins and move away from their lives..

They have shot many reels in advance to go on air ..

Don't know if it's already a wrap up as it looks they are on a break from set..

Might be they will speed up Anurag's recovery with a little leap and might be ending it with Anjol's wedding.

Wynn the grand valentine wedding of Anjol with all rituals may come true...

Anyways no confirmation date of the show ending yet so let's enjoy the coming up episodes which I think will be full of Anjol's moments as spoilers are there..

Next week we may get to see kajol as Mrs Basu or she takes a bold step and stay in the basu house to take care of Anurag..

The emotional and physical trauma Anurag going through kajol won't leave him.. we know now the upmost priority for kajol is to be with her love and heal him..

For the love of god, please take Preeti Chaudhary out of the show

Actually who cares show is itself ending soon I guess no point now

second- regarding her keeping track of Anurag I don’t think that’ll happen until she finds out from somewhere unexpectedly that he’s back on his feet (literally and figuratively) because she seemed super cocksure that he won’t be able to walk ever again. But like Esha said it’s a different situation now- the Basus know the true extent of how bad a partner she’ll be, more important Kajol has seen this so maybe this becomes the much needed push she needed to finally put up a fight plus the Mukherjees are in total support of Anjol. It’ll also be cool if they can get Apu Bulti to do some sleuthing around to get evidence against the false accusations this bitch is making (I remember these two had done this way back when Shreya spiked Kajol’s drink). Can’t stop thinking about how if this track took place a few weeks back we could have avoided so much character butchering, because after a long time Anurag and Kajol are finally acting like somewhat believable characters again

I think this time around they might try to do hungama on the actual wedding day of Anjol itself in which case I want to see the wedding happen at all costs, get stalker inside jail and the chatterjees

@ Savee, agree he is reacting to once again not keep her tied to him as he sees himself for now as permanently injured - in that way he has truly failed to understand Kajol, no amounts of threats or shouting will stop Kajol from being there to support him. Kajol understands him too well

@Savee here is what I think, stalker & mother are not going to let go of free wealth & prestige once Anurag is on his feet..how they can still blackmail Anurag & Kajol is beyond belief & writers should think better how to redeem this plot because its crackpot...pun intended

I know there is talk of three month extension but I really see this show ending in March, maybe thats why no more shooting is happening unless they are on a short break - but I will continue to enjoy the show for now..

As to your options : mother & beti come to start their drama - that is bound to happen

B) redemption for stalker--- ? No No No! I want her to crawl out in disgrace; redemption is too good for her & an insult to those of us have watched from.day one without a fail.

You may be surprised that I say this but I do...I dont want a grand Anjol wedding. I want a simple small intimate and meaningful ceremony on Valentines...yes Kajol certainly deserves a beautiful wedding and grand too but that can come when show ends and Anurag is up and walking unaided...that will be a moment for celebration

One way or another Kajol is surely going to enter the Basu household. Valentines day is Mon 14...ok so next week will be about arranging for Anurag to move back to his home and Kajol making plans to come & look after him...that us going to take a few days...& of course opposition to her staying without her status in the house.

I dont think they will rush Anurag's recovery but I think an Anjol wedding is on the cards..

Lastly...if Anurag & Kajol cannot fight stalker and mother as a united couple especially now that Kajol's eyes have been opened then stalker deserves to rule because she is not even a strong enough character and her threat is so flimsy that it has no substance. So Kajol and Anurag had better get their priorities straight regarding stalker

@Wynn .Right now Anurag is going through an emotional and physical pain.He will show anger and even not trust kajol's feelings for him.

I think now focus will be on kajol's side of love for Anurag..She herself has gone through some very painful moments from her own mother when kajol's father passed away..

Kajol has lots of patience and always keeps her calm to face any situation..She will brave this bad phase for Anurag ..She will give him all the care and love

As you say Anurag rudeness ,anger will not break kajol's determination to heal him..

@quickspicysauce...I think creatives most probably will redeem priyanka character before her exit..

Kajol has to stay with Anurag during his recovery and I'm still hoping , they do a registered marriage for Anjol first then with all rituals..

If show not ending then may be after Anjol wedding they will bring back Shreya/chaterjee track ..Hopefully she makes them bankrupt and also Arjun wants share in Mukherjee property.It will good to see Anjol versus Arjun/naina ..

Upcoming episodes will surely unfold future track..

Saw the upcoming episode, it is finally an episode from the show I had wanted to see. Don’t know how long this will continue but I am enjoying it

Kajol seeks permission from Mukherjees to go to Basu house on a daily basis, and when Chandana tells her what will people say and feels uncomfortable, Kajol says she no longer cares what people say or think and only cares about the trust and opinion of Chandana. Good character growth (from a person who was worried what everyone would say after that newspaper article to now, it’s good)

Naina comes to the house to seek her shares in the Mukherjee business to get funds for Arjun’s new venture, and Apu Bulti and Chandana decide to find a way to stop her nonsense

Kajol tries to keep cheering Anurag up, Anurag is maha frustrated, he tells her to get lost and Kajol is in no shits given mode and in a matter of 2 minutes she preens in front of him and asks him how she looks because she had dressed up for him it was kind of funny for me to watch although it was shot in a more emotional tone

No stalker at all. I am still clueless why this person Preeti was ever added to the show, and I was clueless about it right from the start, still am, and I don’t care how she leaves the show (redeemed or punished or whatever, I just want her to leave because her character makes no sense for this show)

This episode was genuinely the kind of thing I had wanted to watch and so I enjoyed it. I also want to mention that Karan’s performance today I found particularly impactful even though his screen time was less today because he got out that mix of frustration, affection and the impact of trauma really well. Every other person except maybe Naina was really good too- Ishita is always a reliable actor, it’s good they are utilizing Apu and Bulti more
