Im going to be very upset if Khushi takes his latest insult to heart actually, and believes that he genuinely means to be vicious to her-if she gets upset about that little comment about not raising her salary in exchange for sympathy, she's not the girl I think she is. I do feel that there was a moment there when the natural thing for her would have been to touch his face, like the little girl did, not from any rabba ve nonsense, because I think that is what you'd do in the face of such raw grief, you connect physically, instinctively.
I don't think Khushi would touch him until he reveals that vulnerability to her on purpose. There is not that level of trust yet. And I don't think she will take the words to heart, she can see how broken he is on this day.
Even though she didnt do as much as I would have liked, what she got today is a gift, because there is literally no-one else in the world to whom he has verbalized the depth of his pain, not even his didi, who got some tears, but no actual words. I have to say, Im glad she didnt bring the conversation to herself, but interjecting with a "hey, I'm an orphan with a murdered mother and a dead dad, now focus on apologizing to me" vibe.
I am glad she didn't take that moment either but that has to come out if she is to become more meaningful to him.
I do think, however it is completely in character for her to go to him even though she knows that so far 99.99% of the time he's singed her like she's a moth near a flame. Whenever she should recognize that intensely angry look, and should be far away, she seeks him out-that for me, shows her attraction to him, and that he too has a magnetic pull for her, because she can't avoid him to save her life. not eye locks and heavy breathing.
Barun's work today was seriously top notch-he was vibrating with intensity, and good God, that delivery-Words, for him, are weapons, both to intimidate, and to reveal so much-no wonder he has the least dialogue of any "hero" I've ever seen on TV-when he speaks, its so powerful, and always so raw, it makes the listener (at least me!)reel.
I started watching this serial only for Barun, having been a fan of his since BHPH. He is able to emote with a change in his brow. He's amazing and it's unbelievable how he connects with the camera.
One further comment-momma and current, you guys are my favorite posters-always so well reasoned, I kind of forum-stalk you two!
That has got to be one of the nicest things anyone has said to me on IF. 😳 Thank you.
