Week 16 - Romantic treat

With the new colour of love - Orange..
Off he goes to meet his love at 2:20AM.  He cannot wait anymore..and why wait? Love is always magical. There was a calmness in his face and a curiosity in Sona's face as he took her out at that time of night. Amidst the excitement of the proposal, it pricked us very sharply when he said he saw the colours, but never felt it ; he knew the colours of rainbow before anyone else in class, but have never really stopped to look at a rainbow; he woke up before sunrise to distribute the newspaper to earn some money, but did not know how an early morning sun looked - A crux of what he lost as a child. With that prelude, he took her to the hospital where he was born, to the school that he studied in, to the streets where he walked with his mom for tuitions.. and finally to the house which was home to his lost childhood, his lost papa.

He expressed his desire to gain everything right there in the place where he lost everything. He passionately told her how she has made him a better person in life from Mr.Abhodro to now a person that can smile and share his feelings to others.. and how he wants to be even better. When he said her name "Sonakshi", it was as if he just started to breathe; it was as if all this while he was so stiff and holding on to something and suddenly, by uttering her name, he was just set free.. The 3 customery yet magical words "I Love you" followed immediately..but the magic only started after that. Sona had a very legitimate doubt...on what that "Love" meant.. She was in friend zone, remember? so she just wanted to be sure what kind of Love this was..He said "I love you as a man loves a woman".  Never heard this proposal before..but it seemed more magical than "I love you". Sona's reaction was perfect.. "Can you please hug me.." As she said those words, am sure the viewers went weak on their knees for a moment. It was just a perfect and magical start of a Fairy tale love. What followed this week from this scene onwards.. was not a TV serial. It was a poetry in action.


Well, Dev cannot sleep. This is a totally new feeling for him. He is blind to everything else around him. He has such a strong conviction on Love itself. Mami, Mom, sisters.... Kichu bhaiya... all exist.. but he lives in his world where he is with Sona all the time and there is a non stop poetry of Love in the background. Sona doesn't want to go to sleep - what if she wakes up and finds it was dream! She is cute as this girl whose fairy tale has finally become true!

They both now have their passports to happiness. They don't need to secretly admire each other anymore..They can deliberately express it now. They can flirt, be possessive, obsessive, and care without hesitation. Lets keep the physical attraction on the side for a moment. 

In reality, does a man like Dev exist? Will someone want to know all about his woman, the way Dev wants to? What a profound way of expressing his desire!
I want to know all about you...
What do you like, what do you don't?
What are you scared of, what are you not?
Which is the fight that you fought and lost?
Which is that night when you sat through and counted the stars?
When did you say your first big lie?
Which is your promise that broke and which is the one that didn't?
What is your dream? What is your one most beautiful dream?
What did you get without asking ever? And what did you not get till date inspite of longing for it?
When do you smile? When do you cry?
What do you want to do? Why do you want to do it?
What do you call me? just Mr.Abhodro? or something else?
Is it possible that there can be anyone else in your life other than me?
I want to know everything.... even more than you know about yourself...
I have waited long enough for you.. Now I need you just for myself; I have never desired for anything in life more than I desire you.
Dev is surely Neighbour's envy and Owner's pride! Sonakshi is surely one lucky girl to have got the prince charming of her dreams! One more proof of the uniqueness of the show - the kind of romance that was never shown before.

Yes, the hormones are high too and there is a lot of attraction.. The desire to see each other constantly and to be with each other all the time and to think of the other person 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week. A never ending urge to hold each other, to hug, to just keep looking in each other's eyes.. are all part of being in love. It is indeed a romantic treat to watch the couple Dev and Sonakshi πŸ˜

It was cute to see them talk through their eyes :) Ishwari obviously noticed the glow in Dev's face. Hope she remains happy when she ultimately finds out the reason for the glow. The fact that he took a carrot to chew on..was a nice connection to the Orange mania!

Dev getting restless at work to just get home was so unusual of him. If this continues for one more day, its sure to get Tina into a suspicion.. if at all she didn't notice yet!

What is love without the little tiffs and the little make ups? The "Tumhi..." part has now become a topic of amusement for Dev πŸ˜œ The researcher Dev started his research on "knowing my girlfriend Sonakshi". For him, everything is a project! He told Sona that he looked at all her social media profiles to know about her.. I was reminded of the time, when he asked Tina to research on whether all business mergers have marriages also in the cards! I also thought of the time when he told Sona that he needs to do a google search on what the Love symptoms are πŸ˜œ This time though, he has his own Sonakshi to guide him that life is beyond a research like that and that to know about her he just has to spend time with her. 

His sisters have started to notice the change in their brother. They noticed the smile in Dev's face. The writers make careful connections to the past and so the viewers are able to see the contrast in Dev's behaviour! I was particularly reminded of the time when the sisters said that they have never seen Dev smile. 


When Nikki approached him for a permission to go on a college trip, it was a nice way of explaining the need for going out in order to gain life experience - even to see the sunlight, the earth has to go around the sun...This was probably the only other thing that Dev did that day, apart from thinking about Sonakshi πŸ˜€


For Ishwari, atleast for now, its a welcome change in Dev. Dev is not completely aware of Ishwari's insecurities and he trusts his mom that she is always with him in all his decisions. Similarly, for Ishwari, Dev shares everything with her. Its unimaginable for her to even think otherwise. When the two of them face the reality later....how are they going to react, will be interesting to watch.


But for now, lets concentrate on the fragrance of love that fills the air.


The grand finale of the week was the cutest one by far. The two beautiful people get lost in their world not realising whats happening to them or even who is around them. Its a new feeling for both of them and they are completely enjoying the changes that Love brings to their personality. They can't seem to stop smiling at all.  Their silent gestures keep the audience amused. Except Keechu bhaiya and us, no-one else seem to notice it 
😜😜


The Green chilly scene was a quite daring move from Sona and even more daring from Dev's side. And the emotional make up got them one more step closer to each other.


When Sona asked Dev how long he is going to surprise her, Dev's answer was very honest. He said "I don't know..I myself am trying to understand this change in me..".Many love stories have come on screen before. The realness in this story is definitely something to be applauded.


The game of words with misconstructed sentences and contradicting answers (all side effects of being in love!) strengthened their presence of mind πŸ˜€ Whether it was Sona, who managed the question of who is picking her up or Dev who managed the doubt of why he is home at an odd hour - both of them made it hilarious for the audience πŸ˜‚


As the week passed, its hard not to stop and applaud the cast and crew!
Shaheer's magic is everywhere! What an actor! Such honest expressions in the eyes, in the delivery of dialogues, in the body language. You cannot but fall in love with this guy. Meet the King of Romance.
Erica compliments him in every scene and makes it look so real! She shines as Sonakshi, the beautiful bengali Nutritionist who is madly in love with Dev.
Dialogue writers - for such profound dialogues, 
music directors - for such awesome music - I have never listened to a playlist of a TV show before on and on, 
lyricists - all songs.. especially Tu mujme mujse zyaada hai,πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»
and the entire crew. πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»

Thank you for another great week!
