SE KYA MAANGOON MAIN
TUM KHUD HI SAMJH LO
With
these words playing in the background our LOYAL ATHEIST made his “UNTOLD
ARZIYAAN” to the almighty...
YES...he did so...ARNAV SINGH RAIZADA, our very own agnostic child who was bereaved of his childhood by some ugly calculations of god was once again standing at his doorsteps...NOW A GROWN UP MAN...
A man of few words ...
A man of
shaken beliefs..
A man of
deep rooted obnoxiousness...
A man
possessing a proud tag of ‘SELF MADE’
A man who
firmly asserted his non-belief in the ‘SUPERNATURAL’ called by many names
around the world....
THE SAME ‘MAN’....was standing at GOD’S threshold...challenging GOD with his now stoned eyes...daring GOD to correct his wrongdoings... subconsciously asking GOD to provide the things which he HIMSELF couldn’t materialize with his money...
The TRANQUILLITY of mind..
The RIDDANCE
from tht ‘SOUND OF DEATH’ which still echoed like an ugly shrill in his ears..
The peace
of ‘SMILE’....
The
experience of not only spending the life but ‘LIVING IT’....
YES...HE WAS MAKING THE 'UNTOLD ARZIYAAN'...
DARAREEIN DARAREEIN HAIN
MAATHE
ME MAULA
MARAMMAT MUQADDAR KI
KAR DO MAULA
And god,
for once being on the guilty side of affairs was in more eagerness them him to
amend HIS LIFE...to bring in the much needed change..to show that he was called
‘GOD’ for a reason..
So..well...God
looked around and didnt had to sweat much bcoz soon he realized that there was
a white angel frolicking around in his own garden...and .......
ARNAV’S DESTINY WAS DECIDED THERE AND THEN...
HIS FATE HAD
BEEN TAKEN CARE OF...
HIS
SILENT PRAYER HAD BEEN ANSWERED..
HIS
‘UNTOLD ARZIYAAN’ WERE ACKNOWLEDGED,ACCEPTED AND FULFILLED....
God had gifted HIM the much
needed ointment for his wounds......
THE REPAIR WORK HAD STARTED ........
THE REPAIR WORK HAD STARTED ........
SHE was a
soothing balm to his battered soul
A tough
challenge to his non-agreeable
mind
A healing solace to his scruffy
heart...
His ‘REQUIREMENT’ at every possible level
of HEART,
MIND AND SOUL....
SHE
WAS ONE THING WHICH WAS MISSING IN HIS WELL TRIUMPHANT LIFE..
SHE WAS HIS “EHSAAS”
HIS ACCOMPLISHED ‘ARZI’
and just bcoz u all had that
little smile of ‘KNOWING’ on reading
the last line...I feel like gifting u ‘ALL’
with today’s award...
The
‘EHSAAS’ award....
AHHHHHHHH........this scene...its ironies..its resemblances..its contradictions, its comparisons...
HATS
OFF TO CREATIVES...
WHAT A BEAUTY....
*a sincere well meant CLAP*
ITS EVERY DAMN SECOND IS SYMBOLIC..
ITS EVERY DAMN MOMENT IS
ICONIC...
ITS EVERY DAMN MINUTE IS
SPELLBOUNDING....
ITS EVERY DAMN EMOTION IS WORTH
FEELING..
ITS SO CLASSIC IN ITS APPEAL YET
SO SIMPLE IN PORTRAYAL
ITS THE BEST METAPHORICAL
REPRESENTATION OF ANY TWO CHARACTERS’
ITS
JUST DAMN MAGIC YAAR.........
HERE IT IS....
If I had not named it “THE UNTOLD ARZIYAAN” then the second
best option coming to my filmy mind is ...
“WHEN
BLACK MEETS WHITE”
Right from the start of the scene...THE CONTRAST BEGINS...
First..THE COLOUR...the medium often used by any artist to convey the spirit of characters he is creating at his canvas..and well if it was not a moving picture then this scene would have easily qualified as the MOST BEAUTIFUL PAINTING....
what creatives had expressed in this scene just through the medium of colours ARSHI are wearing is no less than MONALISA in its grandeur...
*arey u know me na..I LOVE MY SILLY EXAGGERATIONS—wink wink*
HE
WAS IN THE COLOUR WHICH ABSORBS ALL OTHERS--’BLACK’
SHE
WAS IN THE COLOUR WHICH CHANGES DESTINY
OF EVERY OTHER COLOUR--’WHITE’
But..even ‘BLACK’ colour can’t compete when ‘WHITE’ starts showing its true colours... *hehehe---the ‘PUN INTENDED‘ MODE*
And isn’t that what happened around here too..As soon as she started entering his life..the black sheets started fading and purity of HER heart melted away all his BLACK daemons...
SHE WAS ALWAYS ‘WHITE’ the colour
of purity..the colour of simplicity...the colour of serenity...the colour of
grace ...the colour of poise...the colour of dignity....THE COLOUR OF ‘SOUL’.
BUT MOST OFTEN HIS ‘BLACK’ WAS MISJUDGED .....yes his actions were black at the edges..yes his persona was DARK in its appearance...yes he rejoiced in the twisty gloominess of air that surrounded him..BUT HE WAS SOO NOT ‘BLACK’ AT HEART...
WHY WAS HE STANDING AT THE FOOTSTEPS OF A POWER HE DIDNT BELIEVED IN...FOR HIS ‘DI’...why did he covered his head while entering...BCOZ HE CARED...BCOZ HE RESPECTED...he was a family man at heart...BLACK WAS HIS SHIELD.....
I am kindaa repeating my words but feel like adding here that...
“BLACK WAS HIS MODE OF SURVIVAL “
And then who said we didn’t loved him when he was in his “BLACK MODE”.....his raw intensity was ornamented with this facet of his character....THIS WAS WHAT WAS UNIQUE ABUOUT HIM....
HIS DARK APPROACH MADE HIM SOOO LETHALLY SEXY....
HIS RUDE MANNERS ADDED THE NOVELTY...
YES..HE WAS BLACK *FIGURATIVELY * BUT ISNT BLACK THE MOST DESIROUS COLOUR OF THEM ALL......
Well..The scene starts and distinguishing realities emerge.....
HE is in his kind of lavish car..
SHE is in her types’ of basic
necessity...
HE is still so unhappy..SHE is still so content...
*a little offside remark..isnt he looking just deliciously yummy in those sunglasses----ahhhhh if HE WAS A LOLLY..I WOULD HAVE LICKED HIM SLOWLY N GENTLY FOR INFINITY...YUMMY..YUMMY.... –G-WINK*
AHEM AHEM.....returning back to the topic...
This is where the magic starts...this is where the ARZIYAAN starts....
THE MOST EXPLICATORY AND COMPARATIVE WALK BEGINS....
SHE adjusts the dupatta in RESPECT of her most adored 3 pm friend *yeahhh..she loved chit chatting with all kindaa of gods ‘24 *7’ with devi maiyya being her most fav*
HE puts on the bandanna in
RESPECT of his DI.
SHE walks on with her trademark
calm angelic smile..
HE walks on with his trademark
gloomy n withdrawn steps..
SHE accepts and performs rituals....
HE ofcourse denies them all...
SHE as usual is playful yet elegant..jumpy yet relaxed....
HE as usual is bored yet compliant...remote
yet present...
She plays with her deity...
HE gives his brooding dead look
to not only GOD but all his creations moving around...
She being her ever selfless and kind types’...gives qualms to every needy she encounters...
HE too gives them something *arey
he was no kanjoos*...gifts them all with a *DO SOMETHING WITH UR LIFE * look...
AND THERE FLOWING BETWEEN THEM WAS ‘ALMIGHTY’ HIMSELF.....BRIDGING THE GAPS....CREATING THE CHAIN...FULFILLING THE ‘UNTOLD ARZIYAAN”....
Can any two characters’ get more representational and illustrative description....
Just close your eyes and replay the ‘WALK’ in ur minds....
THE ENTIRE ARSHI EXPERIENCE WILL REFLECT ITSELF IN THOSE FEW MOMENTS
Ahhhhhhhh....ITS SOOO DAMN STUNNING AN EVENT...WATCH IT INFINTE NO. OF TIMES STILL IT APPEARS FRESH AND RENEWED EACH TIME...
And gals...hold ur breadths now..boz what happens next...has the capability to do that....
JUST LIKE THE CALMLY FLOWING BREEZE...SHE CROSSES HIM AND HER ‘WHITE’ DUPATTA GENTLY SLIDES AGAINST HIM.....
AWWWWWWW...SO
EXQUISITE...
Just like in witches movies..when
witch moves the wand a bright magical light appears and hero is
spellbound...here OUR LOVE WAND DID THE SAME TRICK ...and wasn’t she the
most cutest n fairest witch...
HIS EYES FOLLOWED THE FAIRY AS IF SAYING.....
HAWA TUM..
NASHA TUM..
MERI
RAAHTOON KA PATA
TUM..
TUM..
MERE
AIBOON KO JO DHAK
DE..
DE..
WOH
PAAK SI RIDA HO TUM...
I just hum these lines whenever I watch this scene..right now I am feeling why I had to write soo much about this scene...if I had written these lines only..u all would have understood n accepted..kyun hai na??
SHE WAS THE CURATIVE BREEZE WHICH COVERED HIS FLAWS....
SHE WAS GOD’S BLESSINGS FOR HIM..
AND then once again god acted as the bridge..standing on opposite sides of that divine partition..a slight look was exchanged and AHHHHHH.... ‘ASR’ met his inner ARNAV in that moment...
EK KHUSHBOO AATI THI....
(THERE
CAME A FRAGRANCE)
MAIN
BHATAKTA JAATA THA...
(AND I
LOST MY CONTROL)
RESHMI SI MAAYA THI..
RESHMI SI MAAYA THI..
(THERE
WAS A SILKY VISION)
AUR
MAIN TAKTA JAATA THA...
(AND I
WAS KEPT STARING AT IT )
SOOO DAMN GORGEOUS...........
And well..she was never less than him in any way whatsoever...if he was making his kind of ARZIYAAN...then how could she lag behind...she made her kind of ARZIYAAN...
And well..she was never less than him in any way whatsoever...if he was making his kind of ARZIYAAN...then how could she lag behind...she made her kind of ARZIYAAN...
“AGAR WOH
HUMEIN DOBARA MILA NA..TOH HUM USSE USKI GALTI KI SAZAA ZAROOR DILAYENGE”...
Hehehe...Well
whatever maybe be her silly logic for her prayers..at the end of the day...
SHE TOO MADE THE ARZIYAAN...
SHE TOO WISHED FOR ‘HIM’ ONLY...
AND OFCOURSE HER ARZIYAAN WERE ‘UNTOLD’
TOO...
P.S....the lines “hawa tum..nasha tum...”are not my creation...they are from the song “CHUPKE SE AAYE”by Atif Aslam and there is one very beautiful vm made on this song by coldyfriend1...I soo wanted to include tht vm here,,,but ,,,bitchy reality logics ...I hope one day she will become my friend and gift me that vm to include it here.

"ONLY TIME" By "ENYA"
Who can say where the road goes,
Where the day flows?
Only time...
And who can say if your love grows,
As your heart chose?
Only time...
[chants]
Who can say why your heart sighs,
As your love flies?
Only time...
And who can say why your heart cries,
When your love dies?
Only time...
[chants]
Who can say when the roads meet,
That love might be,
In your heart.
And who can say when the day sleeps,
If the night keeps all your heart?
Night keeps all your heart...
[chants]
Who can say if your love grows,
As your heart chose?
Only time...
And who can say where the road goes,
Where the day flows?
Only time...
Who knows?
Only time...
Who knows?
Only time...
Take Care My Dear Arshians! LOVE U ALL n Will Miss U *big Arshi hug*... Dn't know when I'll b back...
Who Knows???
Only Time...
I might have said this number of times before but I will have to say it again ABF you are amazing, you are the BEST, I don’t think even the people who had actually conceptualized this scene could have written such a beautiful post on it. It has everything, every emotion, every look, every color, every background, every sound, it has absolutely everything that was there in this scene and much more.
ReplyDeleteThose beautiful lines from the song and then the thing which you love to do the most describing Mr. Arnav Singh Raizada, a man you love, I never thought of what arziyaan he would make but now I know if he did then it was surely those four things…
And the love for the man is such that it was now god who became guilty (*winks*) and then he did the needful…
Finally you took some time out for the angel, as it was now time for the change in destiny and only you can make the words repair work so romantic….
I think there were more requirements than those three or maybe they were just a few extensions from the desires of the heart, mind and soul….
And thus began the journey for ARZI of ARSHI to be answered
And what do I read next the creatives being applauded, well you couldn’t have done much here it was indeed in every way well deserved (*a clap from my side too*)
MONALISA…its more silly than exaggeration here,to me maybe, was not really able to make a comparison but they are the most beautiful never the less…
Now came your soulful and soulless (no not really though) white angels and black demons… I loved the lines the black sheets started fading and purity of her heart…..
And you are back to the ASR love….Black was his shield….Black was his mode of survival (kickass stuff man) and indeed we love him in this filled with raw intensity Black Mode, black definitely is the most desirous colour of them all…
N yes indeed the beautiful seen…the first thing, man they looked so freaking awesome in this…he looked sooo sooo sexy and handsome and hot and what not (he definitely looked deliciously yummy in those sunglasses abf) and then there is this angel sooo beautiful, soo pretty, there is this look of innocence on her face and the feeling of living life in every moment in her actions…and in white she is nothing less than a pristine beauty…. If he gets our hearts racing, it is surely her beautiful smile that saves us from the heart attack...
A wow wow wow moment again, those lines were as beautiful as walk itself, I dint need to wait for you to mention, the walk was already playing on the mind after reading what SHE did and what HE did….he gives his brooding dead look to not only God but all his creations moving around….n then the do something with your life look….hahahahaha…ooh I soo love ASR…
Well the dupatta never ditches us, it always does the magic, the magic of love and so it does again….
And then those lines, when a beautiful thing gets Arshified it becomes the most beautiful thing in the world ever…yes it’s a nice song but when we think of it as arnav ke aiboon ko dhakne vali rida hai khushi, it just becomes something else, no words really…
God indeed did a pretty awesome job here,vo unkahi arziyaan qubool karke khuda ne bahut se unkahe ehsaaso ke liye raaste kholdiye….their wishes came true and well that’s all we wished for so humari arziyaan bhi qubool hue…
N here by I have dissected pretty much you entire post, sorry if you dint want such a dissection but man I loved reading it, each and every line and after every few lines I had this and that in mind and I had to write it all…
It was a very good scene ABF but you turned it into the best (well we say that about every scene but then that’s what every scene is, every moment which captures them in frame is the best)….
Yet again thank you for such an amazing post Abf, was not feeling the Arshiasm lately but you brought it all back and that to so beautifully….if someone knows how to do the magic after them its surely going to be you….

ReplyDeleteI have soooo fallen in love with this post, Di! The best of all of your posts till date, I'll say... And mind me, I'm not flattering u, it's one of my most most fav scenes *hehehe since it's IPK n every scene is kinda a fav, i had to invent superior categories - there are the MOST MOST FAV scenes, then the MOST FAV scenes, and then the FAV scenes* and U have described it with such beauty - in fact, you have left me little speechless ryt now!
ReplyDeleteTo start with, this was the scene that actually made me fall in love with IPKKND, made me realise it wasn't any ordinary story out there... Every moment in this scene is spellbinding. Every detail done with the utmost care and perfection, from the song to the environment, from the emotions to the dialogues, everything is just - PERFECT!
The thing I love the most about this scene is the way it tells the whole story in like just 4 minutes or so.. Every movement says so much about the characters, it's the scene which at once takes you to the heart of the story. The point of the story was to show the viewers how two ENTIRELY DIFFERENT characters end up falling in love, to make the viewers so skeptical that nothing can unite these two and then to make the impossible happen and amaze them. "MIRACLES HAPPEN" - that all the story was about. And to achieve that successfully, it was first of all necessary to portray the differences between the characters in a poignant way, and this scene did that job to the best! Everything in there speaks of the contrast between Arnav and Khushi, which at once makes the viewer skeptical of any possible relation between these two that can be defined by anything but hate - and that's what gives the story its life.
From day one, everyone knew what's gonna happen, everyone knew it very well that they were gonna end up falling in love, for the obvious reason - this was a love story. But this is the scene which makes a viewer DOUBT HIS PRACTICAL OBSERVATIONS; this is the scene which makes a viewer BELIEVE IN THE STORY.
The contrasting colours, the contrasting reactions to the same surrounding during that walk, the contrasting emotions - everything just screams the word CONTRAST at you. And yet there was something binding these two, a feeling that things were not the way they looked, and that something different could be expected from the future. That feeling is beautifully enhanced by the song playing in the background, such a perfect piece of music, nothing could have been more apt for this scene. Every line is suited to the story, it's like it was composed for this purpose only! It speaks about Arnav, it speaks about Khushi, and it speaks about their love story, it speaks about how they're gonna influence each other - in a way, it says the whole story in short. This scene would have been soo incomplete without this divine piece!
Also that scene in the end where they are tying the sacred thread - their faces inches apart from each other, yet they are oblivious to each other's presence - doesn't that clearly emphasize the "Paas hokar bhi kitne door" thing?
Really every single moment in this love scene speaks volumes! As I said earlier, this 4min scene kind of narrates the whole 398 episode long story! Directors and CVs deserve a standing ovation for portraying it so beautifully, which at once got the audience hooked.
Rest u have said it all, I've got nothing more to write *I told u I was speechless, but see the length of this comment - guess u're not the only one who can't stop talking..hehehe..* When I spoke about Arziyaan in relation with ArShiyan, it was just a word that had randomly come into my mind. But you turned it into such a beautiful thing, hats off to u! Thanks again for this wonderful post!
hey AbF... luvvved ur post... u knw...every bit of ths scene highlights the contrast between them... and thats why there story didnt need any villain for sixmonths, cozthey especially Arnav ws villain of his own lovestory, insultin,breakin hr heart brutally n all...(though shyam did his lurkin around) it ws he ,himself who made his own lovestory difficult.. n ths scene gives us the trailer of that...
ReplyDeletein his love story, findinghis true love wasnt a task(coz his true love kept bumpin on to annoy him thanks to destiny) bt acceptin that love to himself, losing that black shield, bad guy mask that was a task for him...
ths isnt a lovestory, its hisjourney towards finding his own soul , she was just a medium...
Heyyyy bloggy *titesttt hug*
