Episode 233 Discussion: 30th March 2013

Realization of reality-check and Possessiveness for Madhu in Full Swing for Rishabh Kundra

Events of the Episode
  1. Aryan has an accident, breaks the light and is moaning in pain. Madhu runs to Aryan's assistance and helps him get up. The Crew comes running to the spot. The Prod-in-charge scolds Madhu for getting the boy there, leaving him unattended. In anger he calls Aryan as the "Handicap" in contempt. Next second we see Sultan man-handling the man, hanging him upside-down through a rope, threatens him that he will lose life next time if he makes the mistake of calling his son as Handicapped. Sultan takes away Aryan from there.
  2. The Producer scolds Madhu for turning the place a bar and bringing goons like that. Bittuji tries to defend Madhu, but producer silences him. Other crew members also tell the producer that this man was the same as the one who broke RK's car windscreen. The producer asks her to repay the damages for the loss of equipment. Dipali has watched all of this.
  3. Sultan attends to Aryan's leg cut.  Madhu comes back to Chawl, overhears Sultan chiding Aryan for leaving the premises without taking his permission. Madhu enters and apologizes to him and assures him that she never repeat that mistake again. Sultan offers her money for equipment damages asking her to accept money by not show her self-respect crap. Aryan asks sorry to Madhu for causing the disrpution and Kaaka reminds Madhu, that money can be returned to producer as recompensation for whatever SUltan did...re the broken equipment.
  4. RK alone in America...painting Madhu's pic as he remembers from the night of unwedding drama. Realization is going on in full swing for him that she has become his conscience, that her reproachful or indifferent eyes both hurt him to the core, that he cannot be indifferent to the fact that Madhu moved on. Instead of letting it be, absorbing how weak he feels, how lifeless he feels, he tried to bounce back by being meaner than before to her. He expresses his possessiveness for her, body and soul and shows off his jealous and insecure feelings about her proximity to Sultan inspite of her saying that nothing is going on between her and Sultan. He laments the fact the she is not close to him in terms of proximity to not feel the insecurity of losing her to other people or Sultan.

Episode Reviews/Commentaries

By Myself - Take 1
I had advised you all how it is important to watch the last three episode of month end.

LIkewise let me tell you all, the first 5-6 days of next month are also important to know the developments based on last three days of previous month.

So what happened on
  • 28th March - Madhu wants to become mother of Aryan
  • 29th March - Indications of Sandwich situation  for Madhu and she can accept Sultan for sake of Aryan - Package deal.
  • 30th March - Realization of reality-check and Possessiveness for Madhu in Full Swing for Rishabh Kundra
This is good enough indication, if you want to see the upcoming twists in next 5-6 days...Yes the Month's beginning week is set for Twist in the Plot of Previous Month.

Now coming to today's Episode Review.
I am quite saturated at this moment. The Episode was loaded in terms of imagery. I need to watch it slowly and then get the underlying meanings behind Rishabh Kundra's monologues.  Yes, they showed us ...him painting Madhu...The image that he chose is important here...and thus we need to understand the context, the song and many things.

Studio Set and The Pack-up

Loved the dialogue..."Sharaab ka adda samajh rakha hai kya". Wish the Producer says something like this to RK also. LOL

Madhu
Madhu is unapologetic on behalf of Aryan that he had caused damage to equipment and thus disrupting the production schedule. She is getting angry that the man dared to raise his voice for the broken camera rather than showing his sympathy for the hurt child. Did you all notice Madhu's expressions from the start ?  So Madhu is basically not scared of many people there or may be she forgot that RK is not around for daring to show her apologetic eyes.  

Things change for her the moment when Sultan enters the picture and she immediately gets nervous. Normally a woman indulging in lectures and taunts on him, I wondered why she got so nervous so soon. Did she actually guess that Sultan will vandalize the set ? So that shows how Madhu, in Sultan's company is getting to know him and is okay to go by his rules. Vandalizing is fine, hanging a man upside down is fine. Why? Because he has got Aryan, with whom she fell in love.

Further, she was forced to accept by the producer/production manager (whoever he was), his verdict that she was responsible for the vandalism at the set. She is embaraased to get revealed about her association with Sultan, who is the common goon for the people, who had previously broken RK's car windscreen.  This incident today basically established Madhu has nothing but trouble on set. She caused Pack-up yet again. Earlier RK always has yelled Pack-up on account of her (check all the times of Pack-up) and now even this man called Pack-up. So what image is Madhu building for herself on the sets ? Or it is okay to be treated like this? 

Madhu who used to be a soft person at other people's hurts now hardly cares that the man is sitting there shocked...no sorry nothing...Kya zaroorat hai ? All galti his as he called Aryan a handicap. I am not writing this for the sake of writing, I am just showing that, we will not know when Madhu decides to be meharbaan on anyone to bestow her kindness.

Bittuji
Why was Bittuji getting so defensive about his Bhabhiji ? Because of his money power, he thought Bhabhiji can get away with this incident like his Chief? He even offered to pay-up, but the producer/prod-in-charge was so annoyed that he showed Bittuji his place and asked him to have reality check and keep his money with him. Now what will Bittuji do now that he has seen the man who broke his Chief's car's windscreen ? His Chief was looking for this information desperately. So will he relay the information to his Chief. This we have to see in upcoming episodes.

Dipali
Neither I was happy with Dips scene yesterday, nor I am happy that today she saw everything. She has all the material in her hands now to weave more jealousy web into RK's mind.  What she saw was pretty-forward scene and now ample time on her hands to hatch ugly plans to already crazed RK.

Sultan
He did not look that his left hand hurts still. He seemed fit and fine. So time to move out of Chawl if you ask me.

The script handling with regards to Aryan being called a handicap. 
Is is very lame to write "apahij Kahin ka". Why so much callousness for the man ? Could he not have said to Madhu, "Le Aayi, nuksaan kara diya ! Ek to bachcha, upar se Apahij"..this would have been better...But nope they had to justifu Sultan's actions in Madhu's eyes. Poor Aryan, even he was scared at seeing what his father did. Sultan would have lost sense anyways.

Chawl Set - Sorrys and Compensations

Sultan-Aryan relationship
Liked the scene between Father and Son. Who said he was a bad father ? He was perfectly good with his kid. His lessons are different from others, but he is a good teacher and Aryan is a good student. Hope no one comes between the two and they go back to Dubai to live a peaceful life for the sake of Aryan...Hope Sultan is able to finish his job here, for the reasons he came here. Anyways coming back to present...he taught his son never to repeat disgression that he exercised today.

Sultan is not sharing Aryan with Madhu...He spends his moments alone with Aryan without Madhu there. When Madhu walks in...Sultan just leaves the place, avoiding to show her how he raises his son. That's what I like about the man...He keeps his relation with his son very private and never shows to Madhu how it is. This has been consistent in the story so far. There has not been a single instance in the story so far where Madhu witnessed a soft father in Sultan. The CVs have taken extra care to show him only as tough father when Madhu is there.  That's my point behind my comment.  
[Commented by MarathiMulgi - Shri,

You are right. When the stranger is around, Sultan projects stern tough father's image. The way I am looking at Zorica's posters is like a reminder to viewers that since he has met Madhu, Sultan is no longer free to show his gentle side to his son; I mean without the risk of getting caught by Madhu LOL. Anytime he tries, there comes Madhu inserting herself in the situation/equation unnecessarily.]


Madhu
Why was she walking past Roma's Apt ? Was she planning to enter the Apt to apologize to Sultan or she planned to snoop on them ? Anways, Madhu who was not apologetic in Studio for bringing the kid along with her, is now apologetic to Sultan that she took the kid along with her and put both Aryan and Sultan in danger. And how ridiculous it looked yet again for the forced dialogue of asking Aryan to eat. When did the kid refuse to eat ? Seems the dialogue-writer gives any crap dialogue to Madhu character.

Sultan-Aryan-Kaka.
The three were really good in dealing with Madhu.Sultan offering her money, asking her not show her self-respect crap, Aryan asking sorry for causing the disrpution and Kaaka reminding Madhu, that money can be returned to producer as recompensation for whatever SUltan did...re the broken equipment.


Rishabh Kundra and his imaginations - The Temporary Set

The Scenic perception by me
They make mighty use of those white columns. The room had a piano, a canvas stand etc...VD the footballer with these artistic pursuits always first makes me go LOL! And then I reason myself to calm down.  

The dress given to the Painter
It was ridiculous to see RK the painter in a jacket painting. How can that dress be any comfortable to paint ? Did you see the sleeves how tight the became on his hands ? The painting job is manual and so shouldn't the dress be casual and comfy ? Kuch bhi uthaake scene ke naam pe, hamaare moonh pe maarte hain...Sigh!!!

The song of Dilemma and Helplessness
Anyways, the song was self-explanatory to his feelings. Helpless and confused as to how remove the pain and resolve the conflict.  Now I will say, officially the realization track is finished for him and jealousy track is getting cemented. It makes sense to term it jealousy as he accepted his feelings for her. Each of his imaginations are juxtaposed by realization that  he has lost her, leaving him weakened; only to make him bounce back by becoming possessive of her.

Realization in Full-swing.
Madhu's looks are tormenting him. He cannot look at her without feeling piercing pain within him. Is it shame ? Can I call that ? Dunno. Will wait until Rishabh Kundra gives it a term. Through imaginations, he finally is able to tell her, he cannot be indifferent to her. Almost everything about her affects him. He can be the mean person but she cannot he him. And yet something about her scares her. As if she too is capable of doing what he did to her. He is powerless before her and quite knowing that he deserves all of it, the loss and yet the pain is such that he asks her to stop looking at him.

Jealousy in Full-swing
He did listen to Madhu telling him that there's nothing going on between her and Sultan. Yet he keeps remembering the mistook "kidnap" scene or Sultan and Madhu. RK does not remember that Madhu also told him that she saved Sultan's son. For the first time in MEIEJ history, the passion of Rishabh Kundra for Madhu has come out...More than anything else...at this moment, his jealousy is more concerned about him losing his exclusive rights to see her, touch her, feel and love her. He cannot stand the thought of others seeing her like him or Sultan...if he had done anything. Somewhere he seems to agree that nothing might have happened between Madhu and Sultan and yet is scared of even the smallest things such as looking that can upset him.  He is scared that Madhu is no longer with him, locally close to him and so how can he be assured that nothing of that sort will happen, though Madhu seems to have assured him in his imagination that he did not release her, so how can she be not with him, inspite of him leaving her.

The RK Films Banner Pose
That dance between them...the branded RK-Madhu Scene for MEIEJ is back. The pose is back. It started with Madhu imagining it with him masked and her dream ending in her being dropped by him. Then during her engagement with Mukund, he did it quite elan...all debonair expressions to sweep her off her feet. Later in the Party night dance scene of "Aa Zara Kareeb Se" they had enacted that with equal hatred. And now...Rishabh Kundra in his imagination doing it his way, trying to read her eyes...and he cannot find anything there. He just feels at total loss.

Well the episode ended...let's see what they show on Monday.


*************************
Solely my point and not influencing anyone
At this point, I must say, that I am not a lover of jealousy track or jealous people. I don't want to see jealous passions. So...since RK will all turn Othello, (I have not read the play till date); I might see this track with mild interest. I will be seeing with my 100% of heart only when Rishabh Kundra would have seen Aryan.

With jealousy track on, I will be okay only if Rishabh Kundra releases Madhu completely from his hold. This is non-negotiable requirement from my side. He needs to let go of Madhu. Period. If he doesn't do that, then Rishabh Kundra would be a hopeless idiot in my eyes and I would no longer need to watch his drama at all.

Seeing how Dips is going to trap him, how many misunderstandings will happen before Rishabh Kundra is able to see Aryan, I am already dejected. Madhu's Aryan jaap and regular dosage of "Excuse Me" and "Sorry" along with taunts and lectures to Sultan would have better chance of being seen by me.

*************************
More on Realization 

He chose to paint Madhu the way he remembers on Unwedding Drama day. Clearly that is part of his revenge that has turned out be his pain instead of pleasure.

Each time Rishabh Kundra blurts out his status quo of equation with her, she disappears from there as if she does not want to hear what he has to say about them. But as long as he talks about himself or asks about herself and he moving on or the new man in her life, she defiantly stands there.

  1. He says I don't care...you are one of many and I don't have to care...He wants her to actually listen. To his chagrin, she is not there.
  2. He says, even if you like him, I don't care. Did you listen? He turns, she is not there.
  3. He Says, you are mine, only mine, Did you listen ? He turns, she is not there.
  4. He asks her to talk, talk something back (after accepting that he remembers he himself has left her, unhinged her from him, and that she cannot be him in being mean like him).  She doesn't. answer, instead walks away from him. He stops her, pulls her into dance and yet he cannot get any answer from her. Infact, I got the feeling that at that instant he got the scare of his life...what if she too is like him...mean :) Anyways the dialogues tell us that he sees her eyes as reproaching him. Then he asks her not to look at him like that as there rises a piercing pain within him. He diverts from his pain to gain authority and again asks her, if the other guy too looks at her in this manner. He turns his back to her. And then goes on to say...no body can look at her and as her face belongs to him :D and it affects him if someone else looks at her the way when only; he has the right to be looking at her intimately. Did you hear Madhu ? He turns and she is not there.

So basically he imagines her to be "Not giving a damn about his feelings for what he did". Isn't that something ? He expects her to be doing that and her eyes hurt him.  In reality it is not happening...but mentally he feels all that.  Isn't that something.  He is feeling guilty.

His imagination again shows her coming and telling him that she stands there, as he has not released her...but alas the man has realized. She is not there. It is the moment of truth for him. She is not there.

****************************
Remember I was saying this yesterday...that Madhu should have been defiant and moved on...:))  when looking at the poster...
At least RK in his imagination is thinking that Madhu has moved on and now simply doesn't care; even if he says that she affects him; and he can't be indifferent to her moving on. :))

What a disparity of clarity between both characters. Just that one is Right Kameena and other is Self-righteous with misplaced sympathies and affections. LOL!!!
******************************
Chalo finally I am able to laugh at the episode.

RK has pain (of jilting Madhu's affection). How does he deal with his pain. He becomes aggressive to her..as in aggressively trying to possess her again (as if pain from previous possession was not enough for him)...because he has a new interest with regards to her...he has seen her walking and maintaining something with Sultan...so he turns all his attention to deal with "Sultan-Madhu" problem rather than his pain. 

Madhu has pain of not being loved, being cheated, being jilted. How does she deal with her pain. She becomes more loving, she is proactively getting close and closer to Aryan (as if previous attachment was not enough for her)...because she found this special kid who is in need of fun and care and expressive love ...his father is kinda strict though loving him...so she turns all her attention to deal with Aryan problem rather than her problem.

Hero moves through time and space...at times in the flesh and at times in the wind...in the flesh its all staged ...where despite a script...the action comes from behind the scene...a small light is dimmed bringing the thunder in full storm...as if a call for action was made...

At the same time Hero turns to wind and travels...where ever he is...and he...despite having a tight grip...cannot resist that she slip through his hands...now giving the wind power to shift the sands...
(the wind in the last scene with Rk and Madhu drew my attention) 
Sand and cave

Sahara Sand Dunes Photograph by Thomas J. Abercrombie Fickle sculptor, the wind each day reshapes Sahara dunes. These 150-foot-high [46-meter-high] waves flow across the Erg Bourarhet region.

Syl:  rk has lost his grasp of her and reality...minor details will turn to major situations in his mind...its the same way a papercut feels like a stab...Madhu has now become his conscience...she managed to penetrate a place only his mother was able to access...she is becoming the "voice" in his head...though she doesn't say a word...

Shri,

I (think I) understand what you are saying - that he must let her go, in order to win her back. He must develop a new, unsullied relationship with her if he wants her . [Am I right? Is this what you're saying?]

However, Shri, do you really think this is going to happen? They're going to stoke the fires of jealousy to the high heavens, aided by Deepali. He's going to declare an all-out war against the elusive Sultan. He, who is known for being outrageously clever, seems to have taken leave of that very intelligence. He's going to play with his heart, and not his head. 

Considering his rival/percieved enemy is a gangster this could lead him and Madhu into a vortex of danger. It's probably going to be torturously ugly.

As for Madhu, she's already told him once that she has nothing going on with Sultan (it's all about Aryan for her anyway). She won't tell him again.

He won't be a little bit dangerous  - sigh! How I wish it would happen.
He's going to be (a lot) unhinged...
Responded by SD
P,
Yeah you got me,  I am just wishing him to rise in mind. He needs his intellect back and that can happen only if he spiritually grows, He had accepted that his revenge has caused him hurt. Now its time he has accepted that his hurt should not mean anything to her and she can look piercingly at him, its time he accepted that she has become his conscience now.  Once he accepts this instead of avoiding to live through the pain, he would be able to let her go completely...and that should sit well for his conscience...and then he would be able to see ...what she needs from him...as she has not moved on.

This is exactly how in drunken night track...he responds to her hating him and moving on...he says "Theekh Hai"...Its Okay for her to do so.  So now that has to be dramatized.

Thing is between the two...again he only holds the hope and strength for forging the relationship going forward.

I get the point...jealousy track is the vehicle towards moving to that acceptance point for Rishabh Kundra.  But I am like one month of realization track when dominant was building up jealousy track...that was passive...now one month of Jealousy track when dominant...how I am going to live through...though the pleasure will be to watch out for Letting-Go Track being built up.

Last month, lot of the boredom of the show was due to inaction for many reasons.  If this month, even apart from playing jealousy in full swing, if the drama has promise of action and entertainment it would be breezy to flow through...All I need is action. And the promise is that MEIEJ moves fast with its tracks.

Responded by pnars
Yes! She has given up hope of any future with him. He has crushed her spirit so badly. So any move towards rapprochment must come from him, she will never initiate anything.

As for the pace of the track, now that Vivian's honeymoon is over, and he is back full-time, we can possibly hope for the pace picking up and getting back to the usual Madhubala speed.

I also hope this Sultan misunderstanding gets resolved soon - I used to like that MEIEJ CVs don't allow the usual stupid misunderstandings to create a barrier between the couple. Let's hope that's true again. As you said, I'm sick of watching Avi's green eyes disappear behind that car window again and again!

"Dangerous" by Roxette

You pack your bag.
You take control.
You're moving into my heart
and into my soul.
Get out of my way!
Get out of my sight!
I won't be walking on thin
ice to get through the night.

Hey, where's your work?
What's your game?
I know your business
but I don't know your name...
Hold on tight,
you know she's a little bit dangerous.
She's got what it takes to make ends meet
the eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she's a little bit dangerous.

You turn around,
so hot and dry.
You're hiding under a halo,
your mouth is alive.
Get out of my way!
Get out of my sight!
I'm not attracted to go-go deeper tonight.

Hey, what's your word?
What's your game?
I know your business
but I don't know your name...
Hold on tight...

By dramacrazy12
Finally some much needed action...
Lot of things happenned today and the story seemed to have picked pace atleast for this episode.
I loved it because several of question in my mind were raised today using RK's monologue.
1)Madhu finally gets rebuked for her mistake (despite her greatness and intentions...I maintain that it was foolish of her to take Aryan to studio given the bloodshed they escaped just a day earlier)
2)Madhu seems to be shocked that a person on the set had the nerve to call a handicapped child ...well handicapped. I understand it was rude/insensitive of him to do so but then world is not kind and it is the bitter truth anyway. The fact remains Madhu brought a child on the set ...let him wander around...when he fell down he not only hurt himself, but also broke a costly piece of equipment...not to mention interrupted the shooting...essentially wasting a lot of money. Aryan could have got hurt badlyy and resulted in legal liability for the producers. But instead of feeling contrite...Madhu was offended at what the person spouted in his frustation and anger. My conclusion at the end of the day is that Madhu is bad news for the producers and results in pack-ups and damages. Madhu did not show the person Sultan abused any sympathy or even feel guilty...I am sorry to say but Madhu constantly continues to fall in my eyes with her stupidity and carelessness.
3)Sultan looses his temper and shows his gangstergiri by almost hanging a person on the set who was calling his son handicapped what I found odd is that violent facet of Sultan did not seem to scare Madhu. Infact she later goes and apologizes to Sultan for not thinking this through but she was not shaking in her boots...For someone who has had so many close brushes with violent behaviour (from RK/Baloo)...I was expecting a different reaction.  I am constantly amazed at how easily she seems to dismiss Sultan's propensity to off people. On different note... for the first time...Sultan did seem like a gangster...I am still surprised no one seems to recognize him or his name on the set given how closely normally bollywood and underworld are tied.
4)Finally the Bittoji/Dipali are  introduced to Sultan. I wonder how soon they will realize who he is...Dipali is intrigued while Bittuji is confused. Bittoji should have had a methos moment given he had heard this name in a very ugly context before. What I found interesting that today Bittoji was unable to manuever Madhu out of trouble regardless of subtly reminding producer of Madhu's past status by calling her Bhabhiji or offering to pay up damages on her behalf (can he do that without RK's permission?). The people on the set associated the gangster to Madhu...a few more incidents and Madhu will have to face some form of social stigma.
5)Rk finally makes his appearance today clean shaven and looking oddly refreshed and younger ...thanks to his new haircut. He is painting a picture of Madhu...(who paints in a coat and so neatly...it is normally a messy business...I am sure any artist on this thread will agree with me ...btw where is he in "Amerika" or "Swadesh"...does he travel with his colors and easel?)... anyways the point is that she is a part of him and he finds himself bonded to her even though he does not want it. Yesterday he had a tubelight moment when he remembered Sultan's hand around Madhu's waist. I had mentioned some days earlier that though RK seems to have believed Madhu and decided to fly for outdoor shooting given that he is embarrassed over his behaviour but once he remembers the arm around waist ...will he believe her? once he remembers how his windshield was broken...will he worry for Madhu being so close to an apparently violent personality? The first thing seems to have passed today and his possesiveness is back in full swing...when he hears what happenned on the set ...the second thing should also happen.
Rk asked the most valid questions today
1)He was acting still he finds himself attached to Madhu...Madhu was supposed to love him truly but yet she could walk away from him so easily...Did she ever really love him? Was he so insignificant in her life? I do not look at this as ego but more as a self confidence issue...Rk keeps wondering if he is worth loving with his history. Ofcourse there is no denying that he is partly to blame for it.
2)Why is he finding so hard to let go of her? Why does he miss her so badly?
3) Why he feels shame, guilt, hurt and possesiveness when he sees Madhu ?
Once again Madhu is brainless ...RK is back with his craziness and we have Sultan added in mix with his gang war and illegal activities. Handicapped Aryan is simply added to the storyline to give Madhu a reason to interact with Sultan without any romantic overtures and ofcourse make viewers a little sympathetic to Sultan. 
The balance of power seems to be once again shifting slowly between Madhu and RK... Madhu has made a mistake by associating with Sultan regardless of the reason and she will end up paying a huge price for it . Ofcourse that gives RK a leg-up in terms of leading thier relationship.
It will be interesting to see where we go from here...

He's back! He's back! Our lovable Rogue Kameena is back!

Dancing [That's me dancing the jiggy dance of happiness]

In one sweeping, long, melodious, mad, unbroken scene, he swept away all the cobwebs of illogicality, bizarreness and clunkiness of the epis for the last two weeks. That scene was one pure scene of insanity, heroin to the thirsty veins of Rishbala fans.

Truly, these CVs shine in the RK scenes!

He's acknowledged that Farak padtha hai!

Dancing
[Yes, me dancing again!]

That means Rishbala is only going to go to the next level of intensity, whatever crazy level that is. He's going to pursue her to the ends of the earth just to possess her, and she's going to run...with Sultan covering for her??!! I can endure it as long as our Rascally Kameena is in the frame.

I was too down after those stupid hair drying and tea tasting scenes  yesterday. Go ahead Madhu, taste all the tea you want. Brush Aryan's hair and play Mommy to your heart's content. Koi farak nahi padtha kyon ki asli boss vaapas aaya hai aur woh tumhaare liye aa raha hai. And he's not prepared to have the rest of the 1.25 billion populace even look at your face, baby, mind it! 

My only grouse is RK bhai, you painted a beautiful portrait of bhabhiji, but why did you make her buck toothed?!

So today something happened that caught me unaware! I watched the second half of the episode, thinking the 1st half would be unbearable! After watching RK Madhu scene, my mind was so numb, that I had to actually go back and watch the 1st half for the senseless entertainment! Now that's what I call a well balanced episode! When whatever that is shown in an episode whether logical or not becomes watchable when it promises entertainment side by side of logical progression of the story! Otherwise it just ends up confusing average viewers and frustrating them! 


So the whoever, he was very rude and insensitive while talking about Aryan, no matter what the reason! Just as Madhu was going to launch on a long lecture on manners with her "Excuse me", it was Sultan man to the rescue! He hung that man upside down(now that was too much)he was doing just as well while threatening him and showing him his place! I liked what I saw of Sultan today! I am thinking myself of paying Sultan to incorporate the same punishment for RK. The blood rushing to his brain, might give him a better perspective than his current state of self centredness! 

Sultan picks up Aryan and leaves a confounded Bittuji, sending Dipali's cunning brains into overdrive! Madhu left to defend herself and was about to complain of the man's rudeness to Aryan, even after all the destruction done! So somebody else gets to call pack up today and Madhu is in the eye of the storm now!

Sultan was firm and reasonable when telling off Aryan today! I do think he is a better parent in matters that count, than Paddo and Radhaji combined together! Madhu has to overhear and interject, but thankfully no OTT drama takes place! Sultan hears her out, and repays for the damage without mincing words and Madhu accepts! Today Sultan held his ground and kept the drama in control, thanks to him for that! 

RK is in Amreeka, I think painting Madhu in her red saree, the day he left her! That everlasting image of her in his mind is the only cue we  might get that he is not as unaffected by that days events as he pretends! The rest of the scene depicts his struggle within himself! The one half of him that wants to pretend he does not care, but the other half that considers Madhu his and only his and cannot bear the thought of another person even looking at her! The point to be noted, is that even the Madhu in his thought is indifferent to him except for when she reveals to him, that he has not let her go inspite of having left her! The very fact that she is indifferent to him, means its dredged into his subconsciousness that his actions have driven her far away from him, but his conscious mind is aware at the same time that she is no RK! However and whatever he has done, she can't be like him and move onto someone so fast! But his problem is compounded, bcoz he cannot even bear the thought of anyone being physically near her(much like us Rishbala fans) To conclude, I can only see a confused self centred man, who is now becoming slowly obsessive of the woman he deserted! I dont think I like what I am seeing, bcoz it shows that he is a long long way off from winning her back in this frame of mind! Which means more of Sultan and mainly Aryan in between him and Madhu for a while now! Oh besides the fact, that I dont see any chemistry between Sutlan and Madhu, now I don't see that between the present day Rishbala either! How can there be any, with an indifferent Madhu and  a paranoid bordering on obsessive RK? Its going to be a long and cumbersome for journey for Rishbala lovers! 


Amritha,

@bold 1 & 2
LOL!!! Ofcourse I do agree !!!LOL

@bold 3
She is the reason 80% of the time for Pack-up in MEIEJ whether present or not present. LOL

@bold 4
Me too liked his parenting and Aryan heeding to him. Cute, father and son...that's why Kaaka doesn't meddle with them and yet takes care of them.

@Last para
Liked how you put it there.

Rishabh Kundra and his imaginations - The Temporary Set

The Scenic perception by me
They make mighty use of those white columns. The room had a piano, a canvas stand etc...VD the footballer with these artistic pursuits always first makes me go LOL! And then I reason myself to calm down.  
^^ lol u never forget he is a footballer 

Nishi,Yeah, I don't forget him being a footballer. I actually like him for having played football passionately "once upon a time in his past life"  I am from the generation where in school, Hockey, Football was higher than Cricket. So special memories of coming of age with me. I remember my classmates. Infact one of my classmates, he played football passionately and he was good in painting too. He was brilliant in studies, Arts and used to participate in sports.  Schools give us some exemplaries to remember by...

The dress given to the Painter
It was ridiculous to see RK the painter in a jacket painting. How can that dress be any comfortable to paint ? Did you see the sleeves how tight the became on his hands ? The painting job is manual and so shouldn't the dress be casual and comfy ? Kuch bhi uthaake scene ke naam pe, hamaare moonh pe maarte hain...Sigh!!!
^^ i agree with points above...why do they always make him wear that jacket? ....just give him a simple t-shirt for a change 

*************************
Solely my point and not influencing anyone
At this point, I must say, that I am not a lover of jealousy track or jealous people. I don't want to see jealous passions. So...since RK will all turn Othello, (I have not read the play till date); I might see this track with mild interest. I will be seeing with my 100% of heart only when Rishabh Kundra would have seen Aryan.

With jealousy track on, I will be okay only if Rishabh Kundra releases Madhu completely from his hold. This is non-negotiable requirement from my side. He needs to let go of Madhu. Period. If he doesn't do that, then Rishabh Kundra would be a hopeless idiot in my eyes and I would no longer need to watch his drama at all.

Seeing how Dips is going to trap him, how many misunderstandings will happen before Rishabh Kundra is able to see Aryan, I am already dejected. Madhu's Aryan jaap and regular dosage of "Excuse Me" and "Sorry" along with taunts and lectures to Sultan would have better chance of being seen by me.

*************************
^^ my sentiments too...i m just not interested in stupid jealousy track and dont want him to go more crazy than he already is Ouch...there r 2 new promos showing old scenes and but conveying future epi...one is Madhu saying i love u RK and another one says RK will come and color Madhu on Holi...uff dunno whats gonna happen

The Buck-toothed Painting

By Leela


Not reviewing the entire ep (content to read everyone else'sEmbarrassed), but just wanted to write on one point. 

The production house should seriously rake someone in the props section for that painting of 'Madhu', supposedly painted by 'RK'.Angry 
Usually the eyes are dicey - an appearance of squint or malice can be inadvertently caused while painting.
But teeth? What sort of carelessness or possible incompetence is it that anyone - who (presumably) professionally makes such painting-props for productions -manages to draw the teeth slightly too large against that bright-red a colour for the lips, and then fails to sort the blunder? 
Just a slight plumping of the lower lip to cover the teeth a little from below would have rectified the error.
And if drawing the teeth (or adding red onto white without turning the whole teeth pink) was not a strong point, then 'Madhu' should have been painted with her lips closed.
And since it is an exaggerated form of the one imperfection in the male lead, having it irritatingly exaggeratedly visible in the painting causes needless connecting.Ouch 
Did no one think to doublecheck that painting-prop early enough before the scene to notice and nix it and get another one made instead, if not just rectify the error?Confused It was one glitch that could have been avoided.Ouch

Maybe I am over thinking this bit...but that buck toothed painting of Madhu disturbed me. Kept thinking it cannot be a mistake or an oversight by the PH. In classical music, esp carnatic music, there is one technical term called 'Griha Bhedam'...when in a perfect delineation of a raga (raga being one melodic pattern of musical notes), the musician introduces a note that does not belong to that set, thus creating a new raga for a few split seconds. This painting reminded  me of that kind of dissonance. ..the  wrong note causes a dissonance in the raga, and dissonance for the listener, though the artist has done it on purpose.
So yes, my point is RK did the aberration on purpose...he sees Madhu differently, not as perfect as she is, maybe because she has moved on, she turned out different from what he knew of her, or what he  expected her to be. 
At the same time, his view of madhu is coloured by what he did to her ...hence the red unwedding saree. 

My two cents...

PS: There was no chemistry at all between them but they belong together, because Madhu slips so easily into a dance with him and he with her. The change was so fluid, like they've been  doing the dance forever. 

Responded by me
Sounds,

I did not write much on the painting and the aberration ...because I did feel that it may have been done with a purpose. When earlier Radhaji gave that odd photo-frame of Madhu and RK to Madhu, most people were upset and I was super-upset to add heavy symbolism for an ordinary thing like Photo-frame picture, which could have been clicked by the photographer and then photo picked by Radhaji.

My grouse was...meaning was right, but choosing of the mode to imply something was incorrect...as I vehemently chose not to look into the meaning there.
Though post revenge drama...a little of the pic poses does seem to make sense...especially with him now breaking up thinking...the way I perceived her to be from my angle ...was it all right ? And not skewed ?!!! 

Remember...him looking at her...and she looking at the world in front of him.  He has naughty look, but does even know what is attracting her attention ?

Now coming to this painting...I cannot discard the painting here. Why ? Because RK himself was painting Madhu. Then who is the PH painter. Its the artist Sumit Mishra.  His paintings of RK in RK mansion talk to viewers always. We get to see the Rishabh Kundra juxtaposed against that painting and different stories come up in our mind...based on the situation.

So when Madhu has been painted with those glaring teeth...my first question was how much it is real. Now go to Page 9 of this EDT and look at Zorica's first poster. You will see DD's two frontal teeth exposed.  So there is a bit reality there that the two teeth are most prominent.

But why did RK have to make it with so prominently exposed teeth and yet tightly closed mouth...at this point I am really confused between the reality and yet his glaring highlighting it with more than is necessary.  

I am going to keep your explanation with me and watch the future story from that aspect and also the previous photo pic...which makes sense now.  Then the symbolism expressed there had hurt Leela and Zoya...I remember...and I was telling myself...even if the meaning is there, I am not going to buy it because they used it over a medium where mistakes should not happen...

In contrast, this painting from artist's expressions point with subject himself being RK-the Involved and affected makes perfect sense to read the symbolism...just that I am not getting the meaning...unless I read it as only MEANness...like scratching a painting...like he stroked black lines when he remembered his mother's words one day...only after that pain stroked from his brush, does he let go of his pain consciously out of his system towards his mother...as if he sees the grudge is not even worth it as it pains only him looking at the black lines.

You know what was Zoya's concern then at the time of photo frame pic..."Kya dikha diya ?!! That he will always be into her and she will be concerned about everything else than him. Toh pyar kaise hua yeh ?!  Pyaar to lag hi nahi raha kisi angle se"

She was feeling bad that the reciprocation of emotion is missing from the pic..He looks at her and she is  not looking at him...She is happy seeing something in front of her/them...He is not looking at that. Where's the common ground, unison in recognition of feeling/emotion and likewise seeing the purpose ?  So there will always be a discord...
