Welcome to Director's Cut...

Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty.

~ Mother Teresa

Dear Friends...

Welcome to yet another edition of Director's Cut... We have been here through thick and thin of IPK... and we will continue to be... till the end ! There are days when we get frustrated at what is being shown... we let it out too... but then again, we are back to watching it... discussing it... writing about it... such is the magic of IPK !!!

So... I am back once again too... but not for long.. so please excuse !

Today's episode was much better than the previous ones... and Khushi's insecurities are coming up front... Arnav is tuned to her... but is that enough? Sheetal is playing her cards very well... she knows Khushi is insecure and is playing on it very well ! She is making full use of it... the deliberate show of Dear Diary, The old pics... it's all falling in place ! Not to forget Arnav's anger at finding out about the DNA test and Khushi tearing it off without looking at the result... her visible sigh of relief that Khushi did not find out that Arnav was NOT the father... everything is going according to her plans ! What is her ulterior motive? Why has she decided to come back into ASR's life... why does she want to prove that Aarav is Arnav's son... that is the mystery we are ready to unravel !! And boy... Are we ready to move to the next step... Hell yeah !!!

My problem with this track has not been the track itself... but the execution of it... they could have done it in a more subtler way... a more mature way... with subtle romance... some intimacy between a husband and a wife shown (Kudos for the breakfast scene... that was one of the best ones in the current track)... with a dash of comedy thrown... they way they have always done... and we would have loved it ! I hope CVs are back from their vacations... as I go on mine... and we get to see some exciting episodes in the near future... and I will stand corrected... Gul 36 Ritz ! 😊

Small Note: Due to personal commitments... I won't be able to write on DC for the next 20-25 days !!! But, don't you worry... I will be back and will continue after the break ! The DC Index thread might get delayed in the update (as I'll be busy)... but will try to update ASAP ! I won't be able to send you all the daily PM's either... hopefully, whoever will open, will be sending them... and also the link to the new DC will be uploaded on the last page of the previous day's DC !

Missed a thread... find it all at... DC Index Thread !

❤️
Tally Ho !

Let's talk about LOVE!!

Being a woman and working in what is a true man's world and that too in a foreign country, I have often wondered why I have never had a problem being accepted for who I am - why I have never been treated 'DIFFERENTLY' because of my skin color or because of my sex. The answer comes easily to me. Because I have never considered myself 'DIFFERENT'. I did not work to fit myself into their world. They accepted me as I am, because I am comfortable in my skin, I am confident in my abilities and I will step up and speak up for myself.

Now you might wonder what this has to do with love, and Arnav-Khushi and Iss Pyaar Ko Kyaa Naam Doon?

So let's talk about love. What is love? According to a study by anthropologist Dr. Helen Fisher "Falling in love may feel like a meeting of hearts and minds. But really it's a kind of temporary insanity driven by hormones". She further goes on to state that there are three entities (or faces) to falling in love, and that these entities may actually cycle through a relationship. They are: lust, romance and attachment. They can happen in any order and they can also happen simultaneously. These entities take over different parts of the brains and release hormones which make the sensation of being in love much more pleasurable.

The funny things is, love is actually blind. Some parts of the brain - especially the cognitive parts can stop working during the 'falling in love' phase. Since this phase lasts for a year to about two-and-a-half years. But don't worry, it keeps happening as long as you are in love.

Now put all these together and you will see what I am talking about. Khushi and Arnav have gone through the attachement, lust and romance entities,in fact, they are living it right now.

Arnav right now, is truly in love. He has lusted after Khushi (all those rabba-veys), He has romantic love for Khushi. It is a drive that has pushed him further and further in this relationship. He has placed her on a pedestal. To him, she is the complete woman. And he is also blindly in love with her.

From a physical point of view, Khushi is a gorgeous woman, and that is the first thing he noticed about her. But in a reversal of being blindly in love, he went into it with his eyes wide open. She was not his 'type'. The Sheetals and the Lavanyas were. Smart, sophisticated, eye-candy. She stood up to him and gave him as good as she got. The Sheetals and Lavanyas would never dare open their mouths in front of him. They could never stand up for themselves and what they believed in. She confronted him with her morals and challenged him to revaluate his thinking through the foundations of his life. She dressed in a style all her own, and refused to be intimidated by what fashion dictated. She was egotistical and stubborn as him and refused to budge, until he had to often force her hand to get what he wanted. She was emotional and over-excitable. She was fearless and proud. She stood out in a crowd, because she was unabashedly DIFFERENT and didn't care what the world thought of her. And that blinded him to the rest of the world.

Khushi is also truly in love. She has lusted for Arnav (yes, all those rabba-veys). Yes, she has romantic feelings for him. Feelings that drove her further and further into this relationship. If he has placed her on a pedestal, she has always been a little in awe of him, a little intimidated by him, but determined never to show it to him. He wasn't her type. Her type was a person who - could speak filmy dialogues, wasgiven to romantic gesture, or sweet talk. Someone, who cracked a joke at the drop of a hat. Who loved to dance. Who believed in God. Was charming, chivalrous, and doting. Nope. He was none of that. He was arrogant, rude, didn't believe in God, had no idea about movies, and never made one romantic gesture. He pushed her beyond her boundaries emotionally, mentally and physically. He didn't believe in God, instead he believed that he wrote his own destiny. He dressed to follow fashion, and preferred a live-in relationship. He had a girlfriend. But he was just as egotistical as her, and just as stubborn. He would do anything to get his way. He never showed his emotions. And yet, like her he was fearless and proud. In his own way, he was also DIFFERENT, because he too didn't give a damn about the world. And that blinded her to the rest of the world.

Khushi brought him into her world by taking him to GH for a forced stay. And he adapted slowly but surely, and finally came to love the simplicity of her world and embraced it.

Now Arnav's world in the form of Sheetal has arrived. A world that Arnav inhabited before Khushi came into his life.

While Khushi's world embraced him with open arms, his world or rather the world as he knew it, is slowly trying to push her out of his orbit.

Khushi has started beginning to feel that she IS different. Different from Arnav's world. She forgets that every time she has tried to enter it - be it with an Italian date or a Fashion show - he has asked her not to change. Her difference is what makes her unique in his world and he is in love with that uniqueness of her that is the essence of Khushi!

So what happens when you are rejected in love? The same study reports that "when a person is rejected... activity was also found in parts of the brain associated with risk-taking, physical pain, obsessive-compulsive behaviour, controlling anger and theory of mind - imagining what the other person is thinking...You are in physical as well as psychological pain, you are obsessing about this person, you are trying to control your anger and you're trying to evaluate what to do next."

She is right now, feeling rejected from his world. She is in psychological pain. And her cognitive processes are not working. She did not hear the 'Watch it!' when the ball came to her. She did not understand the little nose tap that he did for her. It's THEIR little secret message - your nose is red - you look cute. But instead of understanding this private message, she is too busy imagining obsessively about what he is thinking with regards to her. She is not angry, yet she is definitely trying to figure out what to do next.

Sheetal is slowly and carefully laying the foundation for ejecting Khushi out of Arnav's orbit. She has brought with her some very good ammunition - past memories, a child, and now photographs. She is carefully placing Aarav next to Arnav in front of Khushi. And then placing herself next to Aarav. She drawing the happy family picture for her. And Arnav is playing into her hands as well as he bonds with Aarav.

So far, Sheetal was only an ex-girlfriend with a child who didn't have a father - and that pulled at his heartstrings. A child that seemed to be a loner like him. So he has become friends with the child. His behavior with Sheetal reverted back to his college days, and good memories. But as soon as he high-fives her, he realizes that he has crossed a line. This following on the heels of a 'moment' on the court.

Immediately he looks for Khushi, who looks grateful for the crumb of attention that he has thrown her way - at least, from her perspective. For the first time in the history of IPK, I felt pity for Khushi. Arnav on the other hand has started clueing into Khushi's unease - that it is both with Aarav and Sheetal. The talk of children has given him the clue as to why Khushi would go behind his back for a DNA test.

The story is now at an intriguing point. If Arnav raises the question of having children with Khushi - will she refuse? Obviously Sheetal will not reveal Aarav's father's name so soon - if at all. But will Arnav make it his mission to find out the truth now?

Watch and see.

"Jealousy is the result of one's lack of self-confidence, self-worth, and self-acceptance. The Lesson: If you can't accept yourself, then certainly no one else will."

"When you please others in hopes of being accepted, you lose you self-worth in the process."

Khushi Kumari Gupta...Singh Raizada.To Khushi the latter addition to her name still incites awe in her.Her deep rooted insecurities and the number of hurts that she has faced in her 23 years still makes her doubt her own worth in her own eyes.She feels that she is different from ASR as chalk is to cheese and Sheetal is more of ASR's world.Everyday,Sheetal is subtly and slyly insinuating these thoughts into Khushi's mind.

Khushi is equally damaged as Arnav Singh Raizada,if not more.While ASR faces his abandonment issues with anger,Khushi does it with her sanak. ASR has faced the demons of his past,handheld by Khushi and has emerged as a changed man.But Khushi?The wounded soul is hidden behind her smiles and her effort to please everybody.Her priority for herself is at the end of the queue.

Now when she watches from afar the happy family picture painted with Arnav,Sheetal and Aarav,her soul cries and she again sees herself as an outsider veiwing a family reunion.She has abandonment issues too like Arnav and feels that she does not deserve happiness,Arnav or a happy married life.She feels an outsider in her own marraige.

Today's episode was vintage IPK.The CVs are slowly building the track to show how Khushi devalues her own worth...how she is insecure about her own happiness...how she feels that she does not deserve happiness...how she tries to do what she feels is good supressing her own wishes.

A day will come when the dam will break and not able to bear the hurt that she is causing to herself,she will slowly emotionally detach herself from Arnav not realising that Sheetal is playing mindgames with her or she is misconstruing everything that appears in front of her eyes...and then Arnav Singh Raizada will realise what and how his sudden insensitiveness has further damaged an already damaged soul.

My note to Mr Arnav Singh Raizada :

For the past one and half years,I have admired you,your ruthlessness,your angst and your empathy with Khushi Kumari Gupta.Even when you hated each other's guts,you still sensed Khushi.You were attracted to her deeply,misunderstood her,married her in hate,then fell in love all over again and confessed that all you want is Khushi and nothing else...remember the telepathy talks? Now that you are a happily married man,will it hurt to spend some time alone with her insteading of egging your ex to play BB and bond with her son?I know,you buried your past and came true to Khushi on your remarraige day..but you did not really do her a favour you know.She loved you even when you"hated" her,she did not disclose how you forced her to marry you,she looks after your family,she looks after all your needs,be it physical.mental,spiritual.Isn't it now your turn to delve into the psyche of your damaged wife and heal the poor soul?Will it hurt if you devoted some time to think why your wife went ahead with the DNA test..what is really bothering her?I know you are not insensitive really,you are just being a good host to your guest but now give wifey some attention too..she craves it.😆

So Mr Arnav Singh Raizada ,aged 29 years(but mentally years older),residing in Delhi,hotshot tycoon and a family man...can you please oil your famed shaatir dimaag and get down to the business of seriously loving your wife and healing her...putting rest to all her insecurities firmly and finally...we all are eagerly waiting to see Mrs KASR born out of confidence of your love and understanding.

Note to members of IF:

Friends,ASR is just a man unaware of the storm brewing in his life.So be with him,have confidence in him.He loves his jhalli Khushi,Sheetal is just a friend whom he dated for sometime in college...he is just being nice to her.We had atoot vishwas on ASR and his love for Khushi even during the hate marraige...we knew that he will come through and he did...spectacularly. So give him a chance...don't bash him...he is always true to our dear girl.

Have faith in Khushi too..she too will realise her worth in Arnav's life and then we will get a combustible combo...ASR and his lovely partner KASR...till then have patience...sabr ka phal meetha hota hai😛

So the game continues...

- Khushi did her victory dance so happy to see it...

- Arnav & Aarav bonding happen with Sheetal in backdrop.

- Khushi's insecurity is reaching its brim, she dreams of Arnav pushing her away with Sheetal & Aarav with him. So real is her dream that she is living it & is in tears.

- Khushi felt very relieved & happy as though she got her most prized & lost possession when Arnav asks for her in the hall.

- Arnav has this upset guilt look when Nani compares Aarav to Arnav's childhood thinking about Khushi.

- Khushi still on with her investigation to know who is Aarav's father.

- Sheetal recalling her college memories of BB with Arnav looking at pics & as we all know she is up to no good ... she drops some pics when Khushi enters the room.

- Khushi sees the pics of Arnav & Sheetal... comes to her own conclusions... Sheetal's plan working fine till now.

Precap looks interesting...

Signing off...

Amongst a crowd of people .. she felt alone .. Khushi Arnav Singh Raizada .. the outsider ...

*******************************************

she stood & watched her love dribble away from her .. so steeped was she in her insecurities .. that she did not for a moment .. stop & hear the "watch it" .. that the man .. who was madly in love with her ... shout out to her .. because .. in her mind .. she is the outsider .. peeping in

*******************************************

Dear Fellow viewer & reader, welcome to yet another edition of DC .. finally we got to see 18 minutes of IPK that we were familiar with .. an episode which had .. some thrills .. some chills .. some frills .. some drills .. some kills .. oh well u get what i am saying dont ya .. well finally just another day at the IPK ..

***********************************************

At one point she showed this "nightmare" to La

Tonite she relived the nightmare ...

Was the insecurity that Khushi made La acknowledge hers or La's ... makes u wonder after todays episode ..

loved the way the dots connected here tonite ... Kudos to the writers...

But what was interesting in this one OTT scene was .. this time .. KHushi while facing her demons .. did not want to leave arnav .. because when ever she gets on her OTT high horse .. it results in her wanting to leave him ... well .. which is good for us .. nothing brings out the over protective lover in Arnav more .. than the thought of Khushi leaving him .. so guys .. makers .. we are here sitting tight .. let the drama begin ..

**********************************************

I actually started writing a very different post last nite .. i wanted to write on character impressions .. but got sidelined ..when there was so much uncertainty on Arnav characterisation .. so will quickly touch upon the thought i had yesterday ..

Aarav SR ( not suhaag raat u gutter minded people) .. SR is unknown as off now .. well what we saw for the last couple of days .. was the real Aarav .. who steeped out from the ASR screen .. if u caught yesterdays episode u saw the "walk" was now changed to a regular walk .. & was no more the ASR walk ..

The deliberate "husk" in his voice has now gone .. his voice sounds like a regular kids voice .. not a cheap imitation of The ASR ..

There was no killer instinct in the kid .. which was displayed by his mom .. & by The ASR on the feild today .. he was a regular kid .. lapping up all the attention .. which was being showered on him by all the RM ladies .. unlike the first time he stepped into RM ..

Now this cud be a huge blooper of the director ... ( which in IPK is not such a shocker) .. or .. or .. or .. is this deliberate .. has the stark resemblance .. played its part already .. now are people .. going to make the connections anyway ..

The precap .. was the hint to this .. u saw a petulant child shout at his mother .. while aarav looked like a very mature kid from day 1 .. a kid of 5 who was allowed to wander shops on his own .. hmm so guys will leave this here with a question to u ..

What do u guys think .. is this .. a direction blooper .. or is this deliberate attempt .. to now get the child back in his "real" character .. the REAL AARAV 'SR' ... ??

***********************************************

Once the family is back .. & all are sitting in the lounge discussing the game .. once again she stands back .. she stands back & watches them lounging .. & reminiscing .. at the other end .. her own sister .. is sitting flush in the middle of the family .. enjoying .. makes u wonder .. why Mrs. Arnav Singh Raizada .. will stand out .. why shud she be the one peeping in .. ??

At no point was she the outsider .. but her actions .. are making the outsiders into insiders .. while she is left standing out .. by herself .. but once again .. the moment she will step out of his sight ... he will call her back .. pull her back .. pull her back to his side .. Arnav .. immediately pipes up .. where is KHUSHI .. the woman .. without whom .. he can now not live .. she is happy .. that he asks for her .. its almost like .. she did not expect him to ... its almost as if she expected him to have forgotten her ..

This is the depth of her insecurity now .. that .. she expects him to "move away" from her ... brings u back to the Gupta House .. & kailash Khabri .. & khushi committing suicide .. thinking Arnav wanted to go back with Lavanya ..

I simply loved the scene .. when Nani .. says .." Aarav beta ko dekh ke .. humka chotte ka bachpan yaad aavat hai .. "

Well nani .. if only u cud c what we can .. since the last 2 days .. the kid is looking amazingly like his mother .. rather than The ASR .. just look at the pic above ..

What i loved was .. the immediate rolling & awkwardness of Arnav .. he now knows .. Khushi's insecurities .. he is now empathetic towards her emotions .. oh well he is finally tuned into Channel Khushi .. & knows its not about 'jealousy' here .. its about .. 'trust & insecurity' ..

he immediately asks for Khushi .. he asks her where she went .. oo baby .. in the crowd of people surrounding u .. u also felt alone without her by ur side .. 😃

Then the whole .. Aarav is not allowed sweets bit .. & arnav's really mature way of handling the child .. oh u know what that reminded me off .. the way he convinced mami to let akash marry payal .. just see both the scene one after another .. wonder when was he trying to explain to the kid & when to the mature .. 😉

But the scene stealer .. was the anji & mami dialogue .. anji's dialogue .. that now u r comfortable with kids .. " ab tumhe bhi baccha handle karna aagaya hai " ... mami's rejoinder .. that he is training to be a papa .. were so fantastic ..

But ... But .. But ... this too was misconstrued by Khushi .. instead of blushing .. or smiling .. she was thrown back into the pits of insecurity once again .. what she heard was ... "APNA BACHHA " & the immediately her OTT mind .. joined the 2 words .. & made it into 36 ..

Thats how deep .. she has fallen .. today .. once again the martyr Khushi .. is fighting her way out .. wrapped in a cloak of insecurity .. wrapped in a cloak of a tender heart .. wrapped in a cloak of i dont deserve happiness ... a few days back .. Arnav told her .. her ability to put others happiness over hers .. was trait of hers he admired .. but he truly meant .. happiness of family ... not outsiders .. but this is khushi .. isnt she the one .. who sold her bangles to bring Arnav & Lavanya together .. even when her own heart was breaking into pieces ..

**********************************************

Deep in her thots .. she walks towards her room .. to stop & see Shee sitting in her room seeing pics .. a nervous Shee .. 'tries' putting the pics away .. but a few fall off ..

Khushi being khushi .. cant resist .. asks her about her husband ... her past .. shee .. cooly says she has left her "past behind" & walks away ... leaving behind .. the memories of her past .. for khushi to pick up ..

the most telling part of the episode was this one dialogue of Khushi's ... Agar 'Shee'talji yeh tasveerein dekh rahi thi .. iska matlab hai ki woh abhi tak arnavji ke baare mein ..."

how much more telling a dialogue can be .. yes guys Khushi the martyr is back ...

**********************************************

in yesterdays DC i wrote this ...

"As off now this is what the story line was .. this is what the makers were trying to communicate to us .. the shee .. & aarav angle is yet to start .. this is first level of the unveiling of the track "

So guys .. we finally got to see the track being laid now .. at one end .. Khushi's insecurity has been firmly laid .. at the other end .. The Shee Aarav angle is now being rolled out .. the precap was the precursor to this ...

We saw a belligerent kid .. asking his mother about his dad .. he says .. "u promised when we come to Delhi .. u wud introduce me to my DAD" ..

So .. where is this all leading .. yea yea yea .. like u guys i have my theories down pat .. but .. sorry i dont predict .. or ramble future plots .. so lets wait & c .. yes the plot thickens .. yes the plot now starts to get convoluted ...

As the this track gets unfolded between the ME .. & its subsequent episodes .. remember the characterisations of our leads .. as yet .. ( barring a few slips) the PH has not really slipped .. so .. the future will be based on their past "characterisations" ...

So as i end here tonite .. welcome back IPK .. a nice episode .. a settled fan base .. well all we want is a bag full of pop corn .. to sit & see the next challenge in the challenging love story of Arnav & Khushi ..

GUD NITE & CU AT THE IPKs

Enjoy the Episode:

Today Khushi Kumari Gupta is on a verge of emotional outburst
she is hurting as she fears the most is that she will loose Arnav
she has lost her confidence and trust in her love for him and her belief
that she had held on to during remarriage in the wake of what
Sheetal has in a subtle way without any one else knowing thrown at Khushi

this was the begning of the final nail in the coffin

Mr Raizada does look out for his wife
but has no clue of what she is hiding
despite the dna he has though she has forgotten
little does he know the storm brewing in her head and in their lives
the question remains
will he be able to find out in time
save Khushi and himself form this
remains to be seen
what will be his reaction
will he be angry at khushi or
look at her insecurity and her point of view
will he realise the role sheetal may or may not have played in this
This it the first time someone else rather than Shyam has tried to hurt his Khushi
Will he be able to relate to the agony that she went through
Will he be able to realise that Khushi is the replica of him emotionally when it comes to him
the way she cannot loose her she cannot too
both love each other and both are insecure when it come to their love for each other
both have the fear of loosing the other
which shows their insecurity

Will this be the last straw before Khushi breaks completly and Arnav will know it too late

What has Sheetal have up her sleeve
Will Arnav play an unknow role duriing Karwarchauth
that would break their bond

for that we would have to wait and watch

After today it just became intresting
Sheetal the mystery of dad continues

Khushi darling my heart went out ot you
Arnav i pity you for not able to know your better half

First, he was playing a family game, not a tournament. But he was behaving as if his life and death depends on it. So much so that he saw Khushi falling, but just stood there watching her and later when she got up, he went "She got cured so soon?"

Is this the same ASR CVs, who everytime Khushi even went closer to injury. used to shout out, "Be careful"? Okay, let's not stress your memory too much. Is this the same ASR who stopped Khushi from playing yesterday because she will get hurt?

Are we watching different people everyday?

Second, ASR bumped into Sheetal by accident and had an awkward moment and eyelock. He looks up and sees his wife standing there like a statue with the basketball. But there is no "realization" or "understanding" that how it must have looked to her.

Third, so Khushi doesn't know basketball. But Mamiji doesn't know it either. I didn't see anyone telling her, "learn the game first and then come to play it." Why? Because it's a "family" game played for fun, not to put people down for their lack of expertise.

Fourth, the "friendly" game ended. Arnav and Aarav won. They hi-fived each other.

Now here's a question, for all the people who love someone...

When you win anything, an award, a game, good marks in exam or just plain happy... who do you want to share it with?

The person you love most or a relationship that means nothing?

You congratulated and hugged the child. Good.

Now when Sheetal, being a mother, came to congratulate the child, you were standing there watching her hugging the person she loves most, but you don't think that now I should share my joy with the person I love most. Where is my wife? I need to hug her, share my joy and hear her congratulate me.

Forget even looking at her, you were so engrossed in Sheetal and Aarav (the seemingly "meant nothing" relationship) that you didn't even notice or think that your wife is not there anymore. She left while you were busy elsewhere.

I'm not even talking about the family because if insensitive was a gene, they are the ones who passed it on to you. But you? You claimed to love her more than anything in the world. If this is your love, then she was better off with your hate.

Fifth, the family comes home, still oblivious to Khushi's absence. They sit down and Aakash says that he enjoyed today very much. Arnav agrees that they did. But does he once look at Khushi and thanks her for taking the effort to arrange this "fun day" for him? No. Because she is permanently at his service, who the hell thanks a maid for doing her duty to keep her master happy? Pfffttt...

He moves on to his favourite topic, his "awesome twosome" relationship with Sheetal that "meant nothing".

Oh sorry, now "awesome threesome:" Such a happy trio.

Then another awkward moment as Sheetal and Arnav tries to hi-five. But does it once pass his mind that if it feels as awkward to him doing it, how it would feel to his wife watching it? Does he once glance at Khushi to see, if she is okay? Again, a big no.

It's as if Khushi has suddenly became this invisible elf, who is at everyone's beck and call, but nobody sees her or even thinks about appreciating her effort or acknowledging her presence.

Sixth, hallelujah, finally Arnav remembers that he knows someone named Khushi. So he asks for her. Her face just glows with happiness that her husband is looking for her. It was just painful to see that how little she needs to get over her insecurity and even that seems to some people too much to ask.

Seventh, Mami says to Arnav that practice makes perfect. So when he has his own child, he will be a good dad.

Usually, husband and wife looks at each other when someone makes a comment about their child. But Arnav just keeps looking at mami as if she will be giving birth to his child while Sheetal looks uncomfortable.

Is this the same Arnav who teased Khushi when Nani asked for great-grandchildren in Janmashtami?

Oh wait, then he was desperate to get a suhag raat, but now it's done.

I always think ASR just can't get any more insensitive but CVs just keep proving me wrong.

THIS IS A LOVE STORY..this story tries to define Love..Love That is destiny and love between people who are so different that they wouldn't have met if not for Destiny and Devi Miayya..Arnav has defined Love ,we saw some episodes back , how he defined his love for His Khushi ,,But has Khushi defined the love in her life or should I ask if she would be able to define her love for arnav with the deep rooted abandonment issues?????????? No ,I don't think so...She has understood that she is in love but is afraid to drown in it ..I have already told that this is track is unfolding through Khushi's eyes..This Track is all about Khushi defining her love for Arnav..This Track is all about"real"Khushi or should I call Dukhi who is lurking inside roaming around the world with a facade Of khushi outside trying to accept the permanence of love ..

The Game in the basket Ball court and Khushi's mind too..The insecurity is fuelling her imagination and her delusions... the fear of losing Arnav is a product of combination of her life as an outsider In the GH and the treatment she was meted out by Arnav who was trying to protect himself from falling in love ..

there are three issues that actually have put a blinker on Khushi's eyes ..A blinker because of which she is not able understand Arnav's Stance..let us take the Basketball match and try to understand what those three issues are

1.Complex that both belong to two different stratas of society ... how Arnav would be better off with somebody who he identifies with or shares common interests with,somebody as educated as himself etc etc..the basket ball game itself became a focal point of Disparaging interests for Khushi..the chemistry that Arnav and sheetal shared in the basketball court throws her deeper in the abyss she has created for herself..Awesome Twosome is the final nail in the coffin for Khushi..

2.the Past That Sheetal shared with Arnav is another blinker which is colouring khushi's present.even though Arnav denies having a relation of substance with Sheetal...Arnav's eyes searched for Khushi whenever he saw khushi missing in the family today..but Khushi was unable to see this as the past was playing up in her mind obliterating the fine nuances of Arnav in love played out right in front of her..be it in defining their love,be it when he sees Khushi missing in his Family Tete-a tete on and off the basketball court..somewhere along the line ,ASR's interaction with La has also played a part in fuelling the "fears " of Khushi as shown in the dream sequence of Khushi..the final straw in this matter is the hint that sheetal has thrown little by little in Khushi's way..today it was the photograph of the past which played the part of adding fuel to the already raging fire in Khushi's mind

3.the kid who seems like ArnavJr..the basketball court scenes where Khushi sees a Family Tableau of threesome playing basketball and she sitting out watching it..the entire raizada clan are adding to the insecurities by alluding to the similarities between the aarav and and arnav..though i felt aarnav was uncomfortable with these allusions as he knows about the DNA tests and workings of Khushi's mind on this matter..Khushi is an orphan ,sees aarav missing his Dad through his actions ,somewhere equates that with her orphaned state and empathises with him..she feels she is the one who is standing in the way of aarav's happiness ..she wishes for joy in aarav's life thinking that she is not destined for this ..

last two weeks the creatives have established khushi's insecurities and fuelling it with some circumstantial evidences placed in front of her.one part of the track has unfolded and the second part is going to unfold now starting with the foundation tomorrow..the precap telling us about the second part that is going to unfold before us..Aarav's verbal demand for his father in front of his mom with Khushi ,Arnav watching it..Khushi is already sympathising with the KID but now will try to go in to her "saint Khushi " mode next trying to help the little one..

next track will also be establishment of sheetal's role in the plot..till date sheetal has not be overtly positive or negative..Is sheetal aiming to breakup Arhi so as take to take the place of Khushi in arnav's life or is she just trying to cause a separation between the life partners at the instigation of an external factor..we will discuss this as the track unfolds..

heart breaking though it is, we will have witness some more heartbreak of khushi..this heartbreak will be the one to bring ASR back in to action..Khushi will have to mentally first move away from ASR for him to realise that something is troubling her badly..ASR can take any amount of pain but will not be able bear khushi leaving him..remember the time when Khushi tried to move away from him for the sake of anjali because of her martyr complex and ASR brought her back with his contract ..and then time and again Arnav requesting her not to leave him because he would not be able to live without her ..Ummm,seems interesting ,isn't it?..I loved today's episode..seemed like the return of semblance in the land of Ipk..Bring it on Cvs,we are waiting for more

Happy reading till we meet tomorrow

Did you see that ghost of a smile on khushi's face when Arnav asked about her? Yeah, that was enough for me today.

P.S- And so it begins... 😊
