"Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending." - Carl Bard

Happy Birthday Mr. Raziada...But today wel play a game with you 😉 A game in which everything is there but still there is nothing there. Yes it is your birthday but we will pretend it doesnt matter since it doesnt matter you. How will Mr. Raziada react to this you ask?

Well then let's start this week with this story shall we 😃

It begins where it all left off on Friday Khushi running from end of the house to the other to get things ready for her husband's first birthday after their second wedding! Anjali and Akash try to warn NK and her ki this is not a good idea since he doesnt like to wish anyone on their birthday and absolutely dislikes people wishing and making a big deal of his birthday but Khushi subtly and gently reminds them ki Di aapke Chote, Jijaji aapke Bhai aur Nanheji aapke Nannav Bhai is a changed man today. She is his wife his life, his better half and she believes that Love and marriage has changed Arnav Singh Raizada now. All those relationships and the truth of the past is left behind today and she feels her love for him and his love for her will make him want to celebrate tis very special day in their lives...her husbands first birthday after their wedding...where shel blow balloons for him, cook for him, pamper him and celebrate with him...she wants to be the perfect new bride for her perfect new groom...

Thank you whoever is reading that Kheer is not floating our boat and while we love Khushi in her Jalbei making avatar it's time to try some newer Mithai's available out there. So today's meetha item of the day is Nariyal ki Sugarfree Barfi! Chaliye dekhte hai inka swad kaise hota hai. 😆

Arnav walks in on Khushi making these plans and calls her to chat with her rather sweetly and Mrs. Raizada looks around and tells everyone to see what a loving husband he is indeed. 😳 She all excitedly walks behind him and he asks her whats going on and she says absolutely nothing I just want to make you happy and he gently reminds her that he doesnt like to celebrate his birthday. He wants her to behave like its just a normal day ...this man knowns this woman too well...he knows shes mental and a sanak and that her love in that way knowns no bounds and she will move mountains to keep him happy and safe just like she did when he went missing. Yup he knows her oh too well. But can he win this time? Only time will tell 😉

Khushi highlights how they are so different. He likes to be quite and hide on his birthday while she advertises it only to realize its 24 hours later 🤣 And here she decides the only way to work this is to fight fire with fire! Atta girl! Shes going to do things her way and boy does she. 😆

A helpless Anjali watches as Khushi attempts Mission Suit ka Naap nikalo. But Khushi calms her down and lets her know itl be all right! And not Mission Possible and Impossible begins in the true Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada way. I have to say this was probably one of the finest scenes in terms of execution yet! Sanaya shines here and why shouldnt she it all worked brilliantly today. Barun today was the perfect companion because their timing mattered her and what flawless performances from both of them! 👏 After the chupa chuppi of sorts she is successful in her mission and wth a broad beautiful smile she reminds him to wait because everything good comes to those who wait. Patience my friends is indeed a virtue and heck who else knows better than us? Weve been patiently waiting for all of this and yup it is paying off in small doses

Their relationship has grown beyond the cries and Dhak Dhak's of Rabba Ve playing in the background. As beautiful as it sounded and lovely it looked they always seemed like they were holding back their feelings and emotions. Those days are times of the past. A past when they hesitated with each other, when communicating with one another didnt seem to work, their eyes and hearts did the talking. Now they are one...not just in their bedroom but in front of world and god and nothing can change that. They are bound here not just by emotions, feelings, hearts but by words aswell. They talk to each other like they have never talked to anyone before, they hold each other and hug each other when no ones looking, tease and please each other to their hearts content and this is what relationships are all about. Growing up, moving on, looking towards a future together where laughter, life and love is all that they need.

Its his birthday today and my oh my he looks fine! She looks over at him and wishes him in his way in english like she promised him the other day in his office. Good Morning! And here he thinks phew its here lets rip this bandaid off and deal with the day she has planned and get it over with already! But boy oh boy Mr. Raizada does she have a shocker in store for you. You get a NORMAL breakfast of Bread and butter, followed by a NORMAL lunch of Karela/Bitter Gourd, Dal, Rice and Chapatai a NORMAL man's meal with his NORMAL wife in his NORMAL office , a NORMAL homecoming and oh and BTW no ones going to wish you either! 😛 Well he did say it should be a NORMAL day except he was expecting a very Filmy types birthday for his rather Filmy Biwi here...Over the top decoration, 7 course lunch, with a cute love note in his tiffin, baloons, cakes and tons and tons of wishes and poor baby gets none! 🤣 All I can say her Sanak is starting to rub off on him and he wants to be spoiled and pampered here but she wont and he is getting irritated, angry and mad just like the ASR we know would! 👏 Well Played Mrs. Raziada you win this round!

Overall a great start to the week and the entire team did good. Direction, execution, dialogue, actors, characters, BG and everything in between was brilliant today. A vintagey feel off the past showed up and its good to have that feeling back of running home to watch it and live the life and times of Arnav and Khushi all over all! Until tomorrow...

Overall Thoughts of the evening:

-NK and Akash's side commentry of Arnav Singh Raziada ko Gussa Kyon aya were hilarious and great use of both the characters here. Karan and Akshay have great comedic timing and given opportunities deliver their best! 👏

-NK and his Dhobi Kutta...😆 And his Sunny Deol voice was hilarious! 🤣

-Manorama Mami and her one liners...Shel watch Sunny Deol's Angry young man look more than her on nephews...this will be fun to watch indeed! 😃

-Can someone tell these people that that Brown/Maroon/Red whatever the freak colored suit it is is freaking OLD and hideous! It needs to be burned and never seen the light of day again.🤢

-Curious to see this suit Khushi gifts Arnav...wer still waiting for him to re-gift Maa ke Kangana and the pracelet her showed into those tight churidaars on his wedding night!😆

-Salman Khan seems all the rage on the show. I mean I love him too but maybe they need to bring in a Katrina Kaif element for poor Arnav. He needs something his heart desires too no ? Yes Yes Khushi hai but something to make her jealous...what say? 😉

-Khushi's dialogues are hilarious! Yeh Laad Governor hai ya Jasoos...its almost like shes talking back to us no? 😉

Song of the Evening...

What a fabulous episode. Mazza aagaya!⭐️

I can watch again and again and well, you get the drift.😃

Dono bache were so cute. I didn't even miss the Rabba Ve. Truly. Romance is not just passion and intimacy and Rabba Ves. The small stuff play a big part too.😊

Epi starts with Khushi adamant to celebrate Arnav's birthday. She believes he will let her because he has changed after marriage. I love the smug way she walked away. So sure of her plan. Only to have Arnav explain, very nicely, that he doesn't like his birthday celebrated and its just a normal day for him.

But of course. Sanka Devi will make him eat him words.

And prances away to continue with the preparations.

She then tries to sneak out a very ugly suit from under LGs naak and smarty-pants realises what she's up to and stops her. She makes some excuse about laundry and he tells her its new. Cvs if that was your way of saying Arnav has a wardrobe upgrade with that ugly brown thing then... then daffa ho jao! Its ugly as hell!🤢

Khushi pretends to flirt with him to take measurements for his suit. Absolutely freaking hilarious!!! What a crazy girl. And Arnav is a "Khoobsurat Pati" How right are you girl??? Sanaya was fabulous!⭐️

The "pyaar ka mausam suhana" hai was funny. Khushi is amazing!⭐️

Yep chala gaya. Ab wapas nahi aayega..We're still waiting.

And Cvs thank you for telling us "intezaar ka phal meetha hota hai.." We're still waiting patiently for the next forecast.😃

Next day Arnav wakes up expecting Khushi to wish him but she doesn't. Oh how hot does he look in that grey??? haan he's like a patla bag of haddi's now. Sobti tu khata kyun nahi hai????? Sanaya ko kaise uthayega phir??😲

Anyway he goes down to breakfast and expects the family to wish him, however no one does and on top of that he gets a horribly bland breakfast.
Its cute to see his face light up when he thinks someone will say happy birthday to him and then drops down again when they don't. Fabulously done by BS.👏

Lunch time arrives and Khushi arrives with a dabba. Which turns out to be boring fare. Bechara guy, was hoping for a 7 course meal. He got 7 karelas instead and a hajmola Free. Free. Free.

I feel for him..

He returns home and a cake arrives from some "boss" with no name. Khushi returns it and we finish on Chotte's angry face.

Khushi is smart. She knows how to pull his strings and get him to agree. Just like she did during Payash's sangeet and carried out reverse psychology to get Arnav to agree. Here's hoping it will work this time because if someone can force Arnav's decision its our very own Sanka Devi.

Some observations

  • Arnav's new office is Namak ishq ka's purple silk hell room.

  • I thought Aap bhi na was done for good. Khushi pe aap bhi na bhoot sawar hai now.

  • Nani says beta instead of bitua.

  • Akash got as many lines almost as much as Khushi. Wow!

  • Since when did the family wish each other good morning?? Pehle kabhi nai kiya.

  • Why does A think dabba will have a note. And a 7 course meal. Kab mila?? I have a Phd in the episodes and I don't recall it happening before?? Iss sab ka kya matlab hai????


Serious Stuff

Khushi and Arnav although personality wise are at each end of the spectrum, they are emotionally very similar.

On Khushi's birthday, all she wanted was Arnav to say happy birthday. He showered her with all those gifts, decorated the poolside, cut a cake but didn't wish her.

Arnav sees Khushi planning something for his birthday but she stops when he asks her to, he doesn't want any gifts or parties but all he wants is her to wish him happy birthday.

Dono kitne ajeeb hai...

Arnav Singh Raizada is a 10 year old kid in a 28/29/30 year old's body. Even though he says he doesn't want to be wished for his birthday or wants a party and fanfare and stuff. He still craves attention and the gestures make him feel special.

So when the family used to wish him happy birthday, although he used to show annoyance, their wish didn't go to waste and he treasured it.

This year, he woke up expecting the family to fuss over him and sing happy birthday and whatnot but it didn't happen. So naturally he's disappointed.

He saw his wife was making a fuss and planning a bash for him. He was totally expected her to wish him first but even she didn't. He loves being mollycoddled and pampered by Khushi and so he's hurt and angry as we saw in the precap, because he doesn't want to be ignored, by Khushi of all people!

Only he doesn't know. Khushi is one step ahead and has already planned a birthday night for him because he is the centre of her world.😊

A birthday. I simply love birthdays. My own as well for my loved ones as well. I have yet to meet anyone who does not like to feel special on his or her birthday but aim sure there are many who do not give much importance to it.

Arnav is the sorts who does not want a lot of celebrations but is still hoping that his loved ones make it special. He was so sure of his wife that she had planned a day of surprises and the poor guy was waiting for that surprise. Little does he know that his wife is his true matchand knows her man.she is out to make him admit that he wants the celebration.

The start is good , waiting to see her surprise.

A light and breezy episode , with a promise of romance or is it asking fit too much.

I just loved this episode to bits, it had a bit of everything and struck the right chord with many mainly because it stayed true to what this show was about and didn't try so hard to incorporate those OTT scenes they did in the previous two episodes.

So the family is trying to talk Khushi out of doing anything for Arnav's birthday convinced he would be furious if she did but Khushi has faith in her husband, he isn't like that anymore and surely he would be touched at her gestures. Arnav overhears and lovingly calls Khushi to talk in private, he politely asks her not to do anything because for him it is just another day but is it?? Khushi was about to put her husband to the test and used that shaatir dimaag of hers to set a trap very similar to the one used during sangeet when she got everyone to give him the silent treatment. Another 360 I'm loving!!

Phase one, get measurements for a new suit KKGSR style!! This scene was hilarious, Khushi turning on the charm and getting Arnav in the mood only to kill it because she's on a tight schedule. Arnav doesn't mind as he knows his Sanka Devi is upto something, that she has never been one to just listen to what he says, he has always loved her for having a mind of her own. Sanaya just owned this scene!

Phase two, its morning and Arnav who is looking so good, wakes up excitingly thinking he will now know what Khushi was upto but sadly there is no birthday wish or gift. Arnav is even surprised she would want him to go to the office instead of wanting to spend the day with him. If that wasn't enough, she got the whole family in on it and even Aman. Poor Arnav, he thought with Khushi now in their lives things would be different but instead nothing is going as expected.

Phase three, Arnav and Akash at the office with Arnav flat out reminding Akash its his birthday. Akash reminds Arnav it is him who did not want anyone to wish him, its just another day. Khushi arrives with food, Arnav once again expects something special cooked by his love but is sadly disappointed by that and another attempt to wish him going to waste.

Phase four, Arnav arrives home where again no one wishes him and Khushi even goes as far as refusing the cake sent for Arnav. Arnav is slowly reaching his breaking point, how can she do this to him?? Precap indicates a fight in store and I can't wait to watch!

Overall an awesome episode where the cast was utilized well, even Akash got more than a few dialogues! I loved that as well as seeing both brothers back at work and the perfect blend of Arnav and ASR who was adorable in this episode.

Lovely post Veee!!!

I loved today's episode, absolutely loved it. I can watch it again and again, but AD calls for more brutal tasks so I should abide by them, sigh.

Today's episode reminded me of that flashback a few months ago when Anjali tells Khushi that the only way to show Arnav you love him is by showing and making him feel loved. There was a flashback of a destructive chotte (I absolutely love that scene) and we get a glimpse into the angry young boy, not much has changed in that sense, except he now controls it most of the time and he would like his wife to wish him. Actually, let me rephrase that, after tomorrow, a lot would've changed, Arnav Singh Raizada will accept and acknowledge his birthday and the festivities around it because and for Khushi.

The measurement scene, a fine scene 👏. Kudos to the screenplay writers and Barun and Sanaya, a very well acted scene with finesse. And the "come here you now"... perfect 👍🏼

I'm excited to see how tomorrow will turn out. What happens between Arnav and Khushi is anyone's guess, but what will follow will be goood 😳

Vee...Fabulous post!! 👏 The above part is my favorite...their relationship has evolved in the best way possible. I enjoy watching them so comfortable around each other. There is nothing holding them back she wants to hug him she does, there's no hesitation and how cute is that.
Our leads dominated the screen today, that itself makes it a good episode in my book. Sanka is hilarious, and Arnavs expressions are priceless...these two are perfect together even when they are not romancing. Looking forward to tomorrows episode...I have had a good dose of Ippys juice and am expecting it to be really good. Happy Birthday Arnavji! Hope it turns out to be better than what we and you expected.

I love you Damnit! and you are SO right everything about him and her so outta whack and in sync all at the same time!!!

I have on the side her versus his birthday analysis that il work more on when his birthday is done but you are right again they are imperfectly perfect for each other in more ways than they can even think! She knows how to play him and she will the boy inside this man will come out and demand a birthday and when she walks away do everything to please her and she inturn will please him with the best birthday ever 😃

Thanks Zinny!

Their relationship is what makes this all so lovely. It has helped the peel the layers of the onions both their characters are. They are so different they are absolutely alike and one. He hides within ASr but he is a lost child that needs to mature. This is what growing up at a young age does to one. He was a grumpy little boy and shes making him enjoy his life for the first time ever. Shes a free living girl and hes going to help her balance her insanity with his sanity. In that both will be totally ajeeb but totally like each other yet worlds apart and this is what their equilibrium is! 😃

Life is a long journey and all we need is a hand to hold and guide us...guide me my love for i want to see tomorrow with you! ❤️

Hi Vee and all😃
Fantastic post for an equally fabulous episode. Today was vintage IPK; the story of Arnav and Khushi brought beautifully to life by our very dear Sarun⭐️⭐️.

Birthday's are a time for joy and celebration; saal ka sabse acha din as Khushi says, no wonders she wants to make the day special for her dear Arnav(still ji😕)..
But for Arnav; the boy who was forced to grow up overnight, to take on responsibilities of his sister and family at a young age, indulging in celebrations seemed worthless because he had nothing to look forward too, no one special to share his day and life with. Khushi has changed that; for the first time he expected everyone including Khushi to wish him and make his day special. He who is so used to just giving today wanted best wishes and love from his family and was disappointed to see them all give him a cold shoulder. But God has given to Arnav more than he has snatched away; his Khushi will ensure that every moment of his life is filled with joy, happiness and a sense of belonging and will never let him retract into a shell and stay there ever gain. The little boy inside him was yearning to be loved and pampered; loved it.

Loved the measurement scene; it was classic Khushi and Sanaya at her comic best👏👏. Barun's monologues highlighted with perfect expressions and apt voice modulation brought out his eagerness, followed by annoyance and finally anger excellently.

Khushi will ensure he has a memorable birthday; one to wipe away the bitterness of the past, she has the whole family and Aman (which was epic) in on her plan to make Arnav actually want to celebrate and share his special day with others.

Loved the precap; am hoping the small tiff and make up session brings in some much needed romance and rabba ves. Khushi and Arnav are such children at heart, do we really need another child to make an appearance?
