Episode 22

A Blazing Passion

Dil main kuch huwa tha...ek dhun baji thi

[something happened to my heart and I felt a jolt of music ..a music of love]

1st Rabba ve...

magar na mujhe jana tha na mana tha...[but then I didn't want to accept it...or even wanna know of it...] Arnav will say this later...

The look on both faces is saying a lot and no one needs words here.He is lost and confused and she is scared but some shades are shedding an astonishment "Why is he not reacting?" and other shade is reflecting an assurance"He will not do any worse with me" SHE is sorry of not doing her given task well and guilty of breaking his trust AND the way he is holding the coat infront of her  it seems he is asking "I trusted you how could you?" Some shades are sending notions where he knows she is not at fault and he does not give a damn about this coat and many many more just simply FABULOUS

The way he was looking at Lisa and then turned his head to Khushi is the most beautiful scene ever.No need to describe it.Some beautiful things must remain SILENT.

he ordered Khushi to complete the shoot with three inches dress.I adored Khushi at this moment ,She is never too afraid to stand up for herself.Love and miss this fearless ,dauntless,and daring Khushi."Hum yeh kapre nahi phen Sakte" (I can't wear these clothes) 

"Just shut up! Tumhaari vaje se mera Lucknow ka shoot kharaab hua tha. Ab yeh shoot kisi ki bevakoofi ki vaje se nahi rukega. Aur tareeka jo bhi ho" [Just shut up! My shoot in Lucknow was also ruined because of you. This shoot won't be ruined by anyone's stupidity.]

But he does mention the words which hurt her the most...The night when she fell in her arms...and he let it display on the TV channels...All this was  new to Lavanya as she realizes that Arnav and Khushi knew each other before Khushi started to work at AR group as her expressions change instantly...

He mentions that it wasn't about the contract, then he would have thrown her out of his office long ago .He knows her weak points to hurt her as always. She tries to explain but he cuts her again telling her to resign if she can't do it...

He threw the dress at her and walked out...and she comes down in RED ...his fav color..a color of PASSION...

Di's call makes him deflect only a few seconds but his eyes never leave Khushi and her tears, concerned look , the hazy state is not hidden either, a small lurking concern on his face is not hidden either.

He was allured by her beauty but didn't want to accept that...yet he went numb seeing her beauty in the most amazing away...

Chup chap khadhi rahena...bedhna bhi mat ... Na yehan...na wahan... Statue ban kar Khadi rehna... palkay bhi mut jhapkana...[Stand silently and don't you sit here or there, stand like a statue, don't even blink...]

He said to her yet experienced this while descending at the right moment and there she stood under the bright lights all lit up .. in a passionate red  .. unconsciously in his favorite color...

she stood still without blinking,confused .. her eyes dropped in embarrassment & a feeling of apprehension feeling many things as one of them guilty...a guilty that because of her the shoot was stopped.

     

Oh, his slight opened lips, intense stare without blinking, like a statue by himself, he was caught unprepared for this sparring act of destiny.How do you feel ASR as you are writing this destiny?Aren't ya? You are directing it, as you asked her to be statue and now you are in it too..Hisaab braber karna Khushi ko acha lagta hai...samjhyo ke nahin!!!

Nah! Here one thought I m putting in all? Especially those who think Khushi has been side lined by Arnav, see from this epi and onward.Every action of Arnav brings misery to Khushi or Anjali???

Today, Arnav stopped Khushi hearing her that she had to leave for her Sister's Bday.But in return Anjali's happiness and her husband vanished from her life...Shyam was bound to be busy in Payal's bday arrangement instead of being with Anjali...

All Arnav wanted to do, to make her life hell to say bye-bye AR but she was not an ordinary girl.She took his challenge and found the solution of each to amaze him.Don't forget, Arnav Singh Raizada khabhi nahin harta, so that score board was intentional or it was his defeat??Think...

His eyes proclaimed the possession, the passion ... A magnetic pull which held her in this silent moment without blinking ... completely arrested by his chocolate eyes ... molten, passionate, penetrative...

                    

                   

Suddenly a gust of wind blew her "pallu" off her shoulder while turning around .. & she moved to hold it .. only to be once again caught up in his blazing eyes .. The eyes which stood there devouring her ... 

Yes ! Khsuhi is kind a girl jiss se dekhte hi pyar ho jaye...[ye khushi is a girl whom u can fall for immediately]he said that later..

Rabba Ve plays for the first time and his eyes are welcomed by his first heartbeat with a breathtaking sight of Khushi in a red sari... her hair flying was in the wind. His eyes move along her sleek body, up and down, as his eyes devoured her in.He stood there being stubborn , his lust never lets him  look away.. .and She is momentarily arrested too,.

All she sees Arnav staring at her, mesmerized. She snaps out of the moment and fixes her sari, her breathing rapidly couldn't be missed by his two eyes... Arnav looks away, but his eyes find hers again. He strides up to Khushi, his eyes never leaves her, and stands in front of her completely stunned by this beauty...

He walks closer keeping her hooked by his eyes, Khushi looks at him again, his staring was creating havoc in her too, she was very much affected by him...but she likes this unknown music of heart too... She stares back at him but breaks eye-contact first, fiddling with her fingers as she was trying to face these mixed messages of his eyes.She was trying to understand these things while he was very much aware of yet this was surfacing another layer of anger in him...Why was this girl affecting him so much.

This is the first time Khushi feels the power of his intense feelings ... This is a first glimpse of the passion behind his anguish filled words that Arnav ever called out to her .. she sees the side of Arnav which are overwhelming if you ask as she feels it but she is totally unaware of the name of it...

             
              


Khushi's eyes shot up to Arnav's and her silent plea is loud after Lavanya's complaint... With Akash and the photographer accepting this traditional look, Khushi gets releived in after her obvious distress and her eyes begs for him to let her wear the sari, Arnav agrees and Khushi looks at him,... gratitude changes into a disbelief in her eyes, and he walks away after giving her a stern look ...twisting on his one foot...

Arnav turns back to look at Khushi one last time, the first of many look-backs these two will share during entire IPK. They always take the opportunity to look back at each other, to understand and gauge how their words or actions have been received.

In this case, Arnav wants to see how Khushi has reacted to his benevolence. He wants her to know he accedes just for her. Khushi, however, is tired and emotionally exhausted. She has tears in her eyes as the photographer starts taking shots.

Although this moment affects both of them,but this the first Rabba Ve moment for Arnav's heart after a long time - as he said not a single girl matters to me...but here at that moment he was mesmerized by her beauty. I also like that Arnav's eyes roam over Khushi in lust ...in a natural way ...in the flow of love. IPKKND is one of the few shows I know of that not only acknowledges that love and lust can co-exist, it shows the characters feeling lust and not afraid to show that too...a bold move...It also shows us that girls shouldn't be afraid to hide it either...

it's not just Arnav e, Khushi has difficulty focusing around him, her heartbeat goes faster near him, and later his touch will melt her... but she will know...she will cross all the barriers to be with him...never afraid to show him either...her love and her right over these feelings which is unknown to her now and at the end she will confess him that it was him who made him feel all of this...and showed her the meaning of love.

Indeed iss pyar ko kya naam doon...

Rain scene is next...
