Hii All My fellow IP Sister's...
I donno about you, Girls but for me the jungle , the pissed off and serious hero, the chirpy heroine reminded me of another pair... That much loved Juhi Chawla-Aamir Khan pair in QSQT [ Qayamat se Qayamat tak ] ..while that movie was sweet & Innocent , this was like a bubbly, effervescent soda tickling ur buds and generating guffaws 😆 ..I just loved how both were kept in character yet showed the budding changes happening to them, while the protagonist are blissfully unaware of the fact that they are changing and that the change is induced by the very person's presence whom they are determined to dislike for eternity... Aphrodite, I don't envy u girl..U have a long, hard toil tackling this head strong, overconfident hearts...😊
Gone was the firm resolve to avoid Laad Gavarnar like a plague and to maintain a Moun vrat at all costs .. what does an excitable jalebi Bai do when frequently thrown into situations that she had never envisaged..She eats N Blabbers which is what she did today sometimes Simultaneously too, On the other hand, ASR displayed a exemplary restraint in the face of temptation... he refused to Bark !! he contented himself with a growl of his mandatory, Yeh sab tumhari wajah se ho raha hai **Bhaiyya , Biwi hai teri, jannat hai teri, Khushi hai teri, akhir tumhari duniya main ek patha bhi hilega tho woh Khushi ke wajah se hi hogi..yeh tho obvious hai, man !! **
Much has been said about ARHI Moments, Many posts have have been created, I will not bore u again and again with the same topic but would content myself with few scenes ...
The first scene was obviously in the beginning... When the stowaway is discovered and instead of getting pushed overboard ** A dearth of Sea/ocean perhaps** is courteously offered a front seat right next to the great business tycoon ASR .. A simple act but conveyed the fact that Khushi is no longer relegated to back burner,her place is not in the back but with him, beside him in the front ..His equal , his partner ... She is no longer the minion but a lady to whom he gallantly opens the door of his car & waits for her to walk towards him rather than order her to climb in
THE SPEEDOMETER
The Business Man is late for his infernal Conference ,His active mind has worked out that he needs to use his car as a Ferrari to save time, Accordingly his focused mind in full control, he automatically increases the speed of the car and begins to race resulting in panic attack from Khushi... Her changed temperament registers immediately penetrating his focus, he senses her panic, wonders at it and immediately memories floods back about her confessions... he does not make a face, he does not get irked but gently slows down the car and continues driving without a word spoken between them !! A startled Khushi realizes what Arnav has done,, she understands that he remembers,she is surprised and relieved and perhaps puzzled by another facet of ASR
DUM Lagake !! Haishhha !!
The car Pushing sequence , having pushed and plodded under a glaring sun and that too fully suited ** Koi iss ASR ko bathao there are such things as informal dressing ** The poor guy has had enough with the continuous,monotonous commentary, stung by her suggestion that he might be rather weak , He orders her to push the car ** Hurrah for equality, I suppose ** .. Khushi closes her eyes and dedicatedly pushes it almost right up to her front door * in her day dream ofc** A impatient ASR waits and waits, gives up , comes and stands by a panting Khushi who is on her last legs and the stubborn stationary Car .. The petrol in the Gaddi might have ended but it never ends in Khushi's mouth ..The motor immediately starts and all her inane questions are attended to with an utmost almost zen like calmness by Arnav... but when she asks,"Ab Kya karenge '..The singeing😊 glare he shoots her way reminded me of many a hubbies giving just such a glance at their wifes when they have had enough..
Tu Rootha tho, Main ro doongi Sanam ;
That has been the norm until now , Arnav gets angry, takes it out on a back peddling Khushi, Khushi cries , Arnav softens but Not today ... despite overt aggression esp when he goes, main tumse baath kar raha hoon , Khushi's Woh Tumse ya Hum Tumse ..Arnav's sizzling forward thrust, jerking his hand towards her saying waspishly :Khushi Kumari Gupta se ... Khushi ji merely bends back with her grasp on the pakkodi intact ..No fear, No tears , no rancor ..all part of every day life's fabric...This Girl has come a long way from her instinct of instant flight..
I also loved the look of pure irritation and restlessness of Arnav when the Girls go pitter, patter via phoon..😆😆
Loved the action of Barun when he indicates through his hands that the call to her house is going thru and also the way his eyes do not meet hers when Khushi reminds him about the early phone accident ...he is a nuanced performer😃
BLOOPER : wasn't Arnav supposed to drop Khushi in her home at Delhi, then why was his car pointing towards Nainital and Khushi saying Delhi is the other way..
The Milestone says Nainital in one shot and Delhi in another...The stone changes without ARHI moving even 10 steps in either direction
