Episode 156 Discussion: 28th Dec 2012

Leaving everything Behind - Kuch his Dinon ki toh baat hai

"Why do I want to leave everything Behind?'
"Because I am after eternal love, not transient attention"

Jis pal mile ishq woh, jo ta-umra chalne ka waada kare |
Ke zindagi us pal se jeene ka, aa khoobsurat irada kare ||

Events of the Episode
  1. Continuing from previous episode, Madhu hugs RK from behind and calls him an intelligent child who speaks right. RK is moved and turns to her. Madhu hugs him again and tells him that he was right about Malik and her mother, that there is more than ordinary regard between the two, which they too do not know about. RK tells Madhu that they would make them realize that and have them married.
  2. Having resolved their differences, the duo indulge each other in romantic pleasant talk, to the point where Madhu offers to guve a head massage to RK to make up for her silent treatment meted out to him. RK refuses that and Madhu says she can understand her being an ordinary girl working in an ordinary parlour makes him turn down her offer of massage.
  3. RK gets vexed and asks her to never call herself ordinary. Madhu is amused at him. RK then tells Madhu that he wants to give the reason why he wants to leave all things associated with his Superstar status and go somewhere else with her. He says though he loves cinema arc lights and the adulation he receives from his fans, he knows that it is temporary and he is looking for permanance. He saw that promise of  permanence in Madhu and hence he wants to leave everything behind to go after eternal love. RK tells her that he doesn't need anything else and Madhu too reassures him that she doesn't want anything. RK asks her with nervous face, if its possible for him to be unlucky in love. Madhu just smiles and hugs him. RK too hugs her back. At this moment the servant enters who was called by none other than Madhu to get massage oil.
  4. Dowstairs in  kitchen, Radhaji is heating the oil for RK's head massage. In comes Dipali trolling and very curious to the core asks why Radhaji is happy and for whom she is heating the oil. Rads tells its for RK and Madhu had asked for it. When Rads plans to take the oil by herself to RK, Dips influences her nagatively to not to go to RK as he might insult her. Rads relents and Dips offers to take the oil instead.
  5. When Dips enters the room, RK is highly displeased with her within his room. Picking up a remote control for TV, he tells Madhu that Dips is that shameless person or rather the defected machine which keeps the same mistake of making entry to their room inspite of "No entry" command over her.
  6. Once Dips leaves, Madhu gives massage to RK in all fun.

My Episode Review
A filler episode with these highlights:

1) Ludicrous Promo of Colors GPA awards function screening with RK and DD(Yes DD who almost looks like Madhu )

2) RK reveals to Madhu as in all Viewers of MEIEJ, what does he mean when he wants to go away. And why does he want to go away

3) Irritating Exposure towards Dipali only to reveal what might be ulterior motives of RK for leaving everything behind. Must say, that was a wondrous surprise for me!


Analysis in Detail of "Leaving everything Behind - Kuch his Dinon ki toh baat hai"
Throughout the hubby-wifey-talking and massage session, RK reveals to Madhu what does he mean when he wants to go away. And why does he want to go away. He tells about the short shelf-life of stardom. That he cannot have the eternal love of his fans and that his star status is not permanent.  

Madhu being still the loving and simple wife she, cares two hoots for what RK is gonna lose with this plan of his. As far as she is concerned, she will have her Bidai and go live with her husband wherever he takes her. Simple girl. 
I can easily understand and if I was given that choice. I would be just Madhu, not wanting to think of RK Complexities or hardships or his Insecurities. I would take the simplest path. Jaana hai to jaan hai Bas. Baaki baat baad mein Dekhi jaayegi.

However, today it is also revealed from RK end, that he is not that DUMB and all to just LEAVE everything behind. If he is making Madhu happy by patching up with his mother, he is also fixing things with Dipali. He tells Madhu to keep it all secret. And further he is preempting Dipali's evil -foxy mind and is now confusing her with his plans as shown to us in the Precap. He is daring Dipali to go and tell Rads that all is gonna end in few days.  He shows to Dipali as if he has not changed at all in Madhu's love, but he is gonna show her that he is gonna leave everything behind. 

If I go and see from Dipali's point, I shall be in a dead-lock situation with everything being lose-lose scenario. I am really curious to see what Dipali shall do now. RK leaves...She loses. RK does not leave, Rads is gonna be happy and everything will be hunky dory between everyone, which she doesn't wish. She loses here too. Now Dipali has to choose, which of the two things she wanna lose for herself. And out of this stalemate, seems RK will get a new beginning. Seems this is his way of fixing Dipali -the vixen by him.


Dipali -The Vixen
RK's treatment of her through the remote control was funny considering Dipali's utter shamelessness to keep trying to barge into their room inspite of being unwelcome. She already had me started on barf-attacks with her shameless intrusion and unwillingness to leave. It was funny and yet disgusting. What gave me pleasure was how RK gestured Madhu to shut her mouth as he could see Dipali standing there and listening to them. I enjoyed RK discussing Dipali foxy nature with Madhu. That was a camaraderie there, which can pave way towards trust before that Dipali. The precap scene was really mind boggling to me, but then this is RK. He sure knows what he means he wants to leave everything behind. 


Radha the Self-Distrusting Fool
This woman yet again stopped listening to her own heart and instead got influenced by Dipali. She could have gone and given the oil to Madhu and RK. WOuld have been nice bridging of gaps. But no, she got influenced by Dipali and she nods her head. Now I am sure. She was really doing well with Rishu the 12 year old and was raising him all right. However Kuku Bhatia might have stepped and influenced her to show how she is incapable of doing it all alone by herself and that she needs another's man's support in raising her child. So this is now she must have got married to Kuku. And RK till date has that grudge on her..."Apne aap par Vishawaas nahin". There is a lot more traumatic and irreparable damage here because of the lack of conviction and self-trusting quality of Radhaji. She trembles, cries and stammers...God!! Rads is a chronic clinical case.

Best scene of the Day- Gave me pleasure.
When RK sensed that Dipali was still standing there trying to eavesdrop on him and Madhu.

Worst scene of the Day - Gave me pain
When Rads got influenced by Dips and gave the bowl of oil to Dips.

Puzzle of the Day
Something sure cooking in RK's brain. While he is not lying to Madhu (giving his reasons and insecurities), he is not lying either to Dipali. Were'nt the viewers asking all these questions. Thank God! I never worried even for a moment that this guy was just leaving everything like a hermit. Ha Ha!!! He must have thought through. Anyways, when did they ever show us how he plans for all the difficulties and challenges he gets, That's why I am not too overtly worrying about him making Balraj his producer. That's a blessing in disguise for all his other problems and moreover, he has his sharp mind to reckon on. At this point, even if Madhu gets hurt with misunderstanding him, RK will not be made insecure, but will become more resolute to win her. That's what it matters for the show. New beginnings from Ashes is the broader theme of the present tracks being played. Let me not forget that! 

Respite of the Day - Ridiculous stuff
Ladies would you serve the man with Food  who's been hungry for the entire day instead of giving him massages. I know CVs thought viewers would see it as boring wth Madhu feeding him again. I agree that RK with that rumpled hair look was looking really cute and loveable.. But then women of RK Mansion...could you not say it passingly that ..."don' you want food now ?" And that utter stupidity of massaging while he has shirt on. Could he not have changed to a T or a Vest and a Towel !!! Absolutely Ridiculous!!


Others Take
By Zoya
It was a good Rishbalalicious episode:)
"Tum sirf meri ho hamesha hamesha ke liye"
She tells him that  he is a superstar and she a mamooli girl that he got hyper and made it very clear to her that she is the only special person in his life and then he goes onto talk about how his superstar status and its privileges are fleeting and that with time, everything would fade away but her love shall stay with him till his last breath and to ensure that it stays that way, he is ready to leave all and sundry and go off someplace where it would just be the two of them. 

RK is a man who wants to be assured of permanence and the lasting forever kind promises when it comes to love bcoz of his bitter-past. It's not that he doubts Madhu's love but he is fearful that her love will be snatched away from him by the world. 

Initially,  it was her family problems that almost snatched her away from him and had it not been for Trishna, he would have been broken and well on the path to destruction. And now, he doesn't want to take a chance coz he knew it would completely shatter him. This fear of his is looming in his heart so much that he is not able to bask in the glory of love at present. He is still having his reservations which is quite obvious from his body language and facial expressions. He has this relieved expression that she is with him but, to date, I have not seen him having a joyful ,happiness expression on his face where as she is beaming with happiness in  love...

As for the precap, I don't really know what  is going on in RK's mind but I just hope ki woh apne hi pairon par kulhadi na maar le... Dipzy ke muh lagna zaroori hai kya whether its for good or bad? Madhu said right, kuch hi dinon ki toh baat hai. Can't he just shut his mouth and let the dogs bark how much ever they want?

I liked the shayari that RK told today:
"Jis pal mile ishq woh, jo ta-umra chalne ka waada kare
Ke zindagi us pal se jeene ka, aa khoobsurat irada kare"

Aside: RK ki zindagi mein jab mohabbat na thi, tab bhi problem and ab jab mohabbat hai, tab bhi problem hai--- Oh!!! The woes of love:(

Expressed through Picture by Zorica and elaborated by SD
And this poster below with those three hugs...the last hug is pretty much their story. She will be forever happy and secure in his love and he will shower her all the love and secure her, but have the gnawing fear that something may happen to draw them apart...driving him to work on to secure her again. Its seems crazy, but it is not. He like all other working men is just trying to keep his happiness secured. 
And another thing about the caption you used...When dreams come true, of course there is that fear that dreams are after all ephermeral, they are just dreams, broken when we come out of sleep. Can't we then just not live it as our life and not a dream ?
