Anjali tells Khushi that she can't plan anything for
Arnav's birthday as he doesn't like celebrating his birthday. Khushi says that he must have been like this
before marriage but after getting married, he must have changed. She tells them that he will be happy to see
all the preparations she's made but Akash tells her that she will only get
yelled at. As she goes to make a call,
Anjali wonders how Khushi will feel when Arnav does not like the preparations
she's done. Suddenly, Arnav appears and
asks what they are talking about. Khushi
arrives back in the room talking on the phone about the sweets order. Realizing what she's up to, Arnav asks to
speak to her and she tells the family that he called her so nicely. In their room, Arnav tells Khushi not to plan
anything for his birthday as he does not like celebrating it. When she tries to argue, he tells her to
treat his birthday as any normal day.
Upset, she returns to the living room where Akash is telling NK the
story of how one of Arnav's clients wished him a happy birthday and ended up not
even saying good morning to him. The
family tells her not to worry about Arnav not wanting to celebrate his birthday
and says that he is like this. Khushi
wonders what kind of a person he is; they are totally opposite. As she goes off to make a plan, Mami decides
to order a few movies to watch, instead of watching Arnav being angry. Khushi is on the phone talking to a tailor
when Anjali comes up to her but she reassures her that nothing will happen. Khushi goes to her room to get one of Arnav's
suits for the measurement but is surprised to find him sitting in the room working. She tries to sneak one of his suits out, claiming
to send it to the laundry but Arnav catches onto what she's doing on stops
her. So, she resorts to Plan B. Khushi pretends to be romantic with Arnav in
order to get his measurements. She tells
him to close his eyes as she feels shy disclosing her heart to him. As he does this, she quickly takes his
measurements while being "romantic".
When Arnav tries to hug her, she ends up ducking and he finds her on the
floor; awkward moment. Arnav suggest
they spend so time together if the weather is so great for romance but Khushi
makes an excuse of having work to do and leaves. Arnav wonders what she must have planned for
tomorrow.
The next day, Arnav wakes up
seeing Khushi and wonders what she's going to deal. She surprises him by telling him that he has
to go to work today and to hurry up.
Arnav thinks that she's going to gift him something when she lifts a box
on the table but she's only getting her bangles. Arnav asks Khushi what plans she made today
as he does not like surprises but she assures him that she has planned nothing
as he told her to treat his birthday as any normal day. As he comes downstairs, he gets a call from
Aman and he thinks that he's called to wish him a happy birthday but he only
called to inform Arnav about a meeting.
As he greets Mami and Nani, neither of them wish him a happy birthday
and he seems surprised. During
breakfast, he thinks Khushi has made a special meal but shocked to find out the
she didn't. At the office, he and Akash
are working on a deal. Arnav asks him if
he forgot anything and reminds him that it is his birthday. Akash says he remembered but reminded Arnav
of the fact that he does not like celebrating his birthday. They go to order lunch when Khushi walks in
with a bag. Arnav thinks she's brought a
special lunch, with a personal note.
However, he is surprised when she reveals no special lunch; just the
usual. As she starts to leave, she
retreats back, saying she forgot something.
Arnav thinks she's going to wish him a happy birthday but instead, she
hands him a digestive tablet and leaves.
In the evening, Arnav and Akash return home to find the family looking
and laughing over a laptop. They tell
them they are watching a trailer of Salman Khan's film. Just then, there's a knock at the door. Khushi goes to see who it is and it's someone
with a cake. The delivery guy informs
her that his boss sent it for Arnav for his birthday. Khushi thanks him for the gesture but says
they cannot accept it and to take it back.
She says that Arnav does not like celebrating his birthday and that's
why they can't accept the cake. This
surprises and angers Arnav who watches Khushi with an angry stare as she
returns to the living room.
What worked:
Everyone not wishing Arnav a Happy Birthday.
Remember, be careful what you wish for because it may just come
true. Like every year, Arnav does not
celebrate his birthday and nor does he like hearing birthday wishes so as per
his wishes, no one around him wished him a happy birthday, completely
surprising him. It's the typical
scenario of telling someone not to do something when you're expecting them to
do it anyways. Why would Arnav be mad if
this is something that he wanted? Well
this may be what his mind wants but not what his heart wants. Arnav is human and like every human, wants to
celebrate their birthday, even if they don't admit it. Every time he saw Khushi, he thought she'd do
something but surprises him when she acts normal, causing him to be upset. This situation is teaching Arnav a lesson; be
careful what you wish for. Remember last
year when the family gave him the silent treatment after he said no to the
sangeet because he doesn't like loud music.
That incident back then taught him that even if he gets what he wants
(ex. no noise or sounds) he still seems to be unhappy. The same thing is being repeated in this case. Khushi has put her plans on hold in order to
abide by Arnav's wishes. Unfortunately,
abiding by his wishes didn't make him happy; it just made him angry. Hopefully, this situation (a second time
around) will really teach Arnav about wanting things a certain way as wanting
something and actually receiving it does not produce the same level of
happiness.
What didn't work:
N/A
Highlight:
Khushi's romantic "measurement".
Oh Khushi, what a girl has to do to get her man a gift. Unfortunately, her plan of sneaking his suit
out doesn't work so the next best thing is to play romance. She sort of gave him hints on what she was
doing, as she complimented him every time she took a measurement. I'm surprised Arnav didn't pick up on what
was going on. Then again, he probably
went along with it instead of questioning her.
The funniest part; Arnav failing to hug his wife to find her kneeling on
the floor by his leg. Can you say
awkward.
