Vacation!

Hello folks! So I'm going to be on vacation for the next two weeks so I won't be able to make regular posts. Just wanted all of you to know!

Daily Update: D3, March 27th, 2013

After reading all those negative comments about her on the college website, Taani starts thinking that she needs to have more control over the dance team to prove her mettle. As a result she starts say things and doing things which make the dance team start to resent her. 

After the outburst in the projector room, Rey, Swayam, Sharon and rest of the dance team go to the rehearsal hall to prepare a suitable e-audition video for NDC. Sharon notices that Swayam and Rey get stressed because the team is not able to come up with a suitable routine. She has an idea. She tells the entire team that the purpose of the e-audition is not to select teams but to see how good they are. she suggests that instead of coming up with a new half-baked routine, they can send their Indiafest finale performance video. The team unanimously agrees that the finale performance was their best group performance to date. Swayam agrees and asks the gang to send him all the footage they have so that he can edit the video and send it over. Everyone is glad that they came up with a solution for the e-audition problem. 

Taani, on the other hand meets with the VP. He tells her that even though St. Louis has won Footloose, NDC is a whole different ball game. He tells Taani that there are very high expectations for the dance team. Taani reassures the VP that St. Louis will bring the NDC trophy home. The VP also advices her that since she is a non dancer, she should get more involved with the dance team and try to learn more about dance. Taani agrees. She leaves the office feeling even more pressured than before. She decides to check up on the dance rehearsals. She hopes that the preparations are underway but enters the hall to find the team members goofing around. Taani is annoyed by how lightly the team is taking NDC. She argues with Bharat and Vicki because they pass funny comments.  

Taani then goes on to accuse Sharon of giving more preference to the D3 events rather than the college events because Sharon suggested that they send over the Indiafest performance video. At the rate Taani is going, I see a major Taani vs. Sharon battle in the future! She argues with Swayam because he didn't consult with her before he made the decision. Swayam, Sharon, Rey and the rest of the team are shocked by Taani's attitude. The rest of the team tell Swayam and Rey that Taani's attitude is getting out of hand. Rey realizes that Taani's attitude could pose a problem in the future. He warns Swayam about it. Swayam wonders if Taani's attitude is because of something other than the event.

Sharon calls Rey and asks him to help her with editing the e-audition video. Rey agrees. As soon as he's done talking to Sharon, Swayam calls. Swayam tells him that he's worried about Taani. He tells Rey that only he can talk to her and lighten her stress load. Rey asks Swayam to help Sharon while he talks to Taani. 

Suvreen Guggal - Topper of the year (3/18 - 3/22)

When Jasleen finds out that her mom is going to be meeting Yuvraj, she immediately thinks of a plan to expose YuvReen. She tells her dad that she wants to visit DPSC and get information about the courses offered at the college before her results are revealed. She convinces her dad that getting the information from DPSC will really help her make her decision about the education she wants to pursue. Her dad is impressed by her dedication and sincerity. If only he knew why Jasleen was insisting on going to DPSC during lunch time, he would not feel the same way. Anyway, he agrees to work half a day and take Jasleen to DPSC in the afternoon. When her mom finds out, she tells him that he doesn't have to work half day. She tells him that Suvreen is capable of bringing all the information that Jasleen needs. As Jasleen sees her plan flop before her eyes, she is forced to think of another way to out Suvreen and Yuvraj's relationship to her dad. 

Alisha becomes curious to know about Suvreen's mom's reaction to Yuvraj. She wonders if Suvreen's mother accepted Yuvraj or not. She hopes that Suvreen's mother does not approve of Yuvraj so that she can finally have him to herself. Oh Alisha! When will you figure out that YuvReen are perfect not YuvSha. When she finally sees Suvreen, she asks her about the meeting. She is shocked to hear that Suvreen's mother approves of Yuvraj. She wonders what she'll do next when Suvreen herself gives her the answer. Alisha congratulates her for telling her parents about Yuvraj. Suvreen corrects her and tells her that only her mom knows about Yuvraj. Her 'Pappa' doesn't know about him. She also tells Alisha that her mom and her are planning to tell her Pappa about Yuvraj slowly. Alisha uses Suvreen's hint and starts working on her guilty conscience. Alisha tells Suvreen that she should be the one who tells her Dad about her relationship. He would be upset at first but would prefer to hear such a thing from his daughter rather than anyone else. Alisha's words make Suvreen think about telling her father about her relationship.   

When Suvreen gets home, she decides to tell her dad the truth right away. Jasleen realizes that if Suvreen tells her dad the truth her way, he will accept it and give her permission to have Yuvraj as a boyfriend but if he finds out about Suvreen's relationship another way, he may not agree so willingly. So Jasleen creates a situation where Suvreen is forced to tell her dad her opinion about love. She also ends up telling him that she is in love with Yuvraj... 

Jasleen rejoices as her seemingly perfect Suvreen Di just admitted to making a huge mistake in the eyes of their father. Pappa is shocked to hear Suvreen's confession. He is even more shocked to know that Lovely knew about the relationship. He gets upset and leaves the room. Suvreen wonders what will happen next. She did not want to hurt her dad. She just wanted to tell him the truth. Jasleen is happy to see Suvreen finally suffer. She pretends to be shocked to hear about her relationship with Yuvraj. Suvreen immediately calls Yuvraj and tells him that she told her father about their relationship. Yuvraj asks her if she needs him to come to her house right away. Suvreen assures him that everything will be all right but is glad to hear that Yuvraj will stand by her side through any problem.  

Of course, when Yuvraj has relationship problems he calls Alisha. This time too, he calls Alisha and tells her what happened. Alisha pretends to be concerned about Suvreen. She tells him that Suvreen made a mistake by telling her parents about their relationship so early. Yuvraj disagrees with her and tells her that it was a good thing that Suvreen told her mother about their relationship. He is glad to know that they have her support and blessing. Alisha begins to start planning the downfall of Suvreen. Her obsession with Yuvraj is sickening! It sort of reminds me of Rahul from Darr. I half expect Alisha to utter the words - "I love you Yyyyuuuvvraajjj!" Meanwhile, Suvreen, on the other hand, calls RC for advice. She apologizes for calling him so late at night. He tells her that she doesn't have to worry. He reassures her that everything will be fine. He makes her realize that telling her father the truth shows that she is brave.    

The next day RC introduces Alisha, Annie, Zorro and Suvreen to Ira. Ira is impressed by RC's students. She tells them about the internship that she has planned for them. She gives them an assignment and is excited to see what they come up with. During the meeting, Ira notices that Suvreen is not focused. She later tells RC that she is impressed with all of his students except for Suvreen. RC is shocked to hear that Ira thinks Suvreen is not focused. RC tries to reason with Ira. He tells her that Suvreen is very hard-working and talented. He tells her about how Suvreen won the fashion show. Yet Ira doesn't seem to be convinced. She tells RC that she will find out when she sees Suvreen's assignments.

Speaking of Ira, it's nice to see some laughter back in RC's life. After the incident at Alisha's birthday party, it almost seemed as if RC was turing into his old grumpy self. It's really nice to see him having fun and enjoying with one of his oldest buddies. Who knows maybe there's a romance in the future? It would be fun watching Suvreen and the rest of the gang try to bring RC and Ira together. Vivan has already started planning to bring the two together. It would a fun track nonetheless!

Suvreen is worried the entire day. She wonders what her father's decision will be regarding her relationship with Yuvraj. She is unable to focus on her assignment and gets frustrated. Yuvraj sees Suvreen frustration and tries to cheer her up but in vain. Suvreen spends the entire day thinking about Suvreen and her relationship. He is inadvertently rude with Lovely. Suvreen calls her mother to ask her if her dad said anything. Suvreen's mother tells her that she has never seen her father so upset by anything. She tells Suvreen that her father may not understand her feelings. Suvreen gets even more hurt when she hears that. At the end of the day, Suvreen gets home to find her father waiting for her. He tells her that the next morning he wants to meet Yuvraj and talk to him. Suvreen is excited to hear that her father wants to meet Yuvraj. But she wonders what his decision will be.

The next morning Yuvraj come to Suvreen's house. He tells her father how he came to realize that Suvreen makes a difference in his life. He talks about how he realizes that Suvreen is a very important person in his life. Baldev becomes impressed with Yuvraj and realizes that what he feels for Suvreen is genuine. He tells YuvReen that he approves of their relationship. YuvReen are excited to learn that they have the seal of approval from Suvreen's small-town parents. Baldev tells Yuvraj that even though he approves of their relationship, he still has rules that both of them have to follow. Yuvraj and Suvreen are happier than ever!

Just when everything is normal with the parents, Alisha starts brewing trouble for Suvreen at the college front. When Suvreen excitedly tells Annie and Zorro about her father's decision, Alisha takes Suvreen's folder out of the room and hides it. When RC and Ira request to go over the assignments, Suvreen tries to look for her folder but doesn't find it. Ira gets annoyed with Suvreen's carelessness and dismisses her from the internship. 

Daily Update: D3, March 26th 2013

As the dates for NDC auditions are coming closer, Taani gets more stressed. It's her first major event and she is nervous. She wants to make sure that she does well and the St. Louis dance team does well. All the D3 gang notice that the stress is getting to Taani. Swayam justifies her behavior saying that it's her first big event so she must be feeling very nervous. The team wonders if her behavior will cause problems with Sharon later on if any NDC event clashes with D3 events. Just then Sharon informs the team that they have been approached for another event. She tells them that they will be paid well. The team gets excited. They resolve to juggle NDC rehearsals and D3 rehearsals. SwaRon share a really cute chemistry these days. It's so nice to see them talking to each other rather that fighting. They are actually getting to know each other better now than when they were 'together'. 

Taani meets with Rey and tells him about the rounds in NDC. She explains the procedures to him and tells him to pass on the information to the rest of the team. Even Rey notices that Taani is more stressed these days. He tells her that her nervousness is normal considering she has so much on her plate. After he leaves, Taani goes to the library to check out the buzz that NDC has created among the St. Louis students. What she finds is heartbreaking! Taani finds out that although the students are excited about St. Louis participating in NDC, they feel that Rey would be better suited as the GS to get them the victory. They feel that since Taani is a non-dancer, she won't be able to aptly guide the team. Taani is very hurt by what she finds. She gathers her thoughts and goes to meet the team.

Rey explains the procedures of NDC to the team in the projector room. The gang is happy to hear that the procedures are similar to Footloose procedures. They are confident that they will do their best. Just then Taani appears and tell them that the next step will be e-auditions. She tells them that they have one to submit their e-auditions. The team is shocked to hear that they have no time. Sharon tells Taani that they have an event the next day. Taani asks Swayam to make sure that everything is taken care of. When Vicki asks her for advice, Taani tells him that she is not a dancer, she is not in a position to give them any advice. The team is stunned by her answer. Taani later goes on to say that as a CS, it is Sharon's responsibility to make sure that the NDC events take place smoothly. Looks like there's a Taani vs. Sharon battle on the horizon. I just hope ReyAm's friendship doesn't suffer in the process...

V D3 Style Rang Barse, March 25th, 2013

D3 celebrated Holi today! So instead of a regular episode, we got to see one full of color and dance! We got to celebrate Holi D3 style!

The episode starts out with Rey and Taani talking about Holi. Taani tells Rey that she plans to represent every part of India in this year's Holi celebrations. Rey agrees to support her. Taani complements him for being so supportive. She wonders why all the other boys are not like him during Holi...

The girls are all hiding at Sharon's. They don't want to be bothered by the boys so they decide to hide at Sharon's place. Although Sharon wants to play Holi, she agrees not to because of the other girls. Just then they hear the boys outside. The boys come and call the girls but their call go to deaf ears. The girls decide to stay away. The boys come up with a plan to get the girls out. Just when the girls think that the boys have given up, they burst into the room through the window and chase the girls. All the boys manage to put color on the girls and wish them. Soon an argument ensues. 

Rey and Taani talk about how the age old boys vs. girls battle comes up every time they fight. Taani wonders how they are going to figure out who wins this battle. Rey tells her that there is only one way to settle fights, especially if they are boys vs. girls and that is a D3 style Dance Battle! Taani reassures Rey that the girls will win while Rey is sure that the boys will win...

The girls come prepared to beat the boys. They give an energetic performance. It was awesome seeing Taani perform with the girls. After the girls finish, they look around and notice that the boys are nowhere to be found. Just then they hear an announcement, letting them know that the boys are waiting for them on the basketball court. The girls go there are witness an amazing performance by the boys. After the boys are done with their performance, the groups begin arguing about whose performance was better. This totally reminded me the good ole days. 

Rey and Taani wonder how they'll decide whose performance is better. Finally Taani come up with a solution - Why don't they boys and girls dance together? Rey agrees and the entire group dances together and celebrates Holi together. Now that the fight is over, the entire group meet at the basketball court and celebrate Holi. They dance and play with color and have a jolly good time, thanks to Rey secretly feeding everyone Bhang laddoos!     

Weekly Update: Suvreen Guggal - Topper of the year (3/11 - 3/14)

After Jasleen finds about YuvReen, she plans to expose Suvreen's relationship to the family. Jasleen wants Suvreen to experience the feeling she always has when her parents always listen to what Suvreen wants  but ignore whatever she wants. To set her plan in motion, Jasleen suggests that her parents invite Yuvraj over for dinner to thank him for saving her that night. Her parents agree with her. Of course Jasleen has other ideas but Suvreen is happy to hear that her parents want to invite him over. She excitedly tells Yuvraj that her parents have invited him over for dinner. When Yuvraj finds out, he gets nervous. He wonders if her parents have found out about their relationship. In his confused state he seeks advice from Alisha. I still can't believe that Yuvraj goes to Alisha for advice about Suvreen rather than Annie. Alisha advices Yuvraj to be himself. She also tells him to speak from his heart. She suggests that he take gifts for Jasleen and Suvreen's mom. 

Yuvraj follows Alisha's advice to be himself. Suvreen promises him that she will be there with him so he doesn't have to worry but fate had other plans. Rather Alisha had other plans. She purposely delay Suvreen in class. In the meanwhile, Jasleen questions Yuvraj about his relationship with Suvreen. She hopes that in his nervousness, Yuvraj will say something about his relationship with Suvreen. Poor Yuvraj wonders why Jasleen is trying to skewer him! Finally Suvreen arrives. Jasleen observes the way they act with each other. At the same time, she also says things to her mom which make her suspect Suvreen and Yuvraj are not just friends. Before dinner, Yuvraj asks Suvreen why she was so late. Suvreen tells him that she got delayed because the class was too long. She also tells him that she felt like Alisha deliberately made her late. Yuvraj rubbishes her claim. Jasleen notices that Yuvraj and Suvreen seem unhappy during the dinner and figures that they probably had a fight. Her mom also notices the change in Suvreen and Yuvraj's behavior. 

Later that night, Suvreen's mom questions her about her relationship with Yuvraj. Suvreen tells her the truth which shocks her mother. She tells her that she wants to think about it before she makes her decision. The next day, Suvreen tells Yuvraj that her mother found out about them. She tells him that she wanted to be the one who told her mother. She didn't want to hide her relationship from her parents. Yuvraj reassures her that everything will be fine and that he will always be by her side. Meanwhile, Jasleen keeps instigating her mother. She keeps saying things that make her mother worry about Suvreen and Yuvraj. Finally, her mother decides to meet Yuvraj. When Suvreen gets back home from college, Suvreen talks to her mother about Yuvraj. She tells her about how Yuvraj has always stuck by her side and helped her out. She also tell her that she doesn't want to lose him. Her mom tells her that she wants to meet Yuvraj.   

Suvreen tells Yuviraj that her mother wants to meet him and talk to him. Yuvraj gets very nervous. And as always he turns to Alisha for help and advice. At this moment, I'm starting to wonder where are Manu and Rathi when you need them? How come Alisha has suddenly become so popular with Yuvraj. Anyway Alisha tries to psych Yuvi out even more and it works. RC hears Suvreen talking to Annie and Zorro about the meeting. Later in the day when he sees Yuvraj, he gives him a pep talk. He tells him to be himself and be truthful. He makes Yuvraj realize that he just has to be himself and he will win over Suvreen's mother just like he won over Suvreen. 

So what happens next? Tun Tun Tun...

Daily Update: D3, 22nd March, 2013

Swayam leaves Rey on the locker room and makes his way to the rehearsal hall. He wants to book it for rehearsals for NDC but when he gets there he sees Sharon putting up a sign that the room is booked for D3's rehearsal. Taani sees this and gets upset at Swayam for not booking the rehearsal hall when she told him to. Swayam apologizes to her and talks to Sharon about using the hall for NDC rehearsals since D3 doesn't have any offers. Sharon obliges. She tells Swayam that since D3 doesn't have any offers, the NDC rehearsals are more important. 

The boys watch what happens from the corridor. They are surprised to see Sharon agreeing with Swayam. They are also surprised to see Taani all worked up. They wonder if that has to with her argument with Rey. The next morning, the boys notice that Rey seems out of touch during the rehearsals. They plan to cheer him up. They make Swayam promise that he will help them patch up Rey and Taani. Swayam reluctantly agrees. Vicki comes up with a plan to patch up TaaRey so that things will be right with Rey and Taani after he has a nightmare with Taani and Sharon fighting over the team. 

The next morning, the boys go to the cafeteria. They meet Taani there and tell her that Rey is not affected by her. They tell Taani that Rey is a casanova and will just move on from Taani after a while. Rey and Swayam wonder why the boys are telling Taani such things but go along with it anyway. The boys even get Swayam to tell Taani false things about Rey. Vicki later explains that he is using reverse psychology to clear their differences! Oh boy! The boys dance for Taani. The D3 boys have the most fun! They are so funny and have the weirdest solutions for problems! They help TaaRey patch up. This makes me wonder though, will their difference finally get in the way of their relationship?

And Finally, here's another V Style Rang Barse promo...

Looks like it's going to be awesome! Can't wait for next week to get here!

P.S - Check out the Dil Dostii Dance page for links to Twitter accounts and Instagram accounts for the actors on the show...

Daily Update: D3, 20th & 21st March, 2013

This is the 500th episode folks! Yay for Dil Dostii Dance going strong for 500 episodes! This is amazing! It must be a huge encouragement for all the folks associated with Dil Dostii Dance to be able to experience such amazing success!

Swayam goes to college thinking about all that happened the previous night. He thinks back to his reaction on seeing Rey in Taani's room. Sharon notices that he seems upset. She asks him about it and he tells her that he caught Rey and Taani together in her room. Sharon asks him why he is upset with Rey when he did the same with Sharon? Swayam thinks back to when he snuck into Sharon's room through the window when she was sick. He understands Rey's sentiments and thanks Sharon for helping through his dilemma.

In the morning, Taani calls the D3 gang and tells them that she has some important news for them. She tells them that St. Louis College is going to be participating in the National Dance Championship. The team is excited to hear about it. But when someone raises a question about what the group would do if a professional opportunity came along, Taani tells Sharon that they will have to manage it whereas Sharon disagrees. Sharon tells Taani that they will uphold their professional commitments. For the first time Sharon and Taani go head to head! Both girls stand their ground.

Taani later tells them that the VP has called Rey, Sharon and Swayam in his cabin. The VP tells them that St. Louis will be competing in the National Dance Championship not as Dazzlers and Weaklings but as one united team. He congratulates them and wishes them success for the competition. The D3 team meets in the cafeteria to appoint a captain for the team. Rey unanimously gets the group's vote to become the captain even though Taani suggests Swayam and Sharon. Rey notices Taani's displeasure at him becoming captain.

Taani doesn't want Rey to become captain because the captaincy would eat away at the time that they get to spend with each other. Rey tries to talk to Taani but to no avail. He wonders what bothered her so much. Oh Rey! Sometimes you are so clueless...

(Video coming soon...)

Taani finally explains to Rey why his captaincy is upsetting her. She explains to him that since he is the AGS and the spokesperson of D3, he's been very busy. If he becomes the captain of the dance team, he will not have time to spend with her. That's why she doesn't want him to become the captain. She tells Rey that as the GS of St. Louis she want the best possible candidate as the captain of the dance team but as a girlfriend she doesn't want her boyfriend to be too busy. Rey thinks back to all the times that he cancelled his dates with Taani because something related to the dance team came up. He realizes that he needs to make a sacrifice for his relationship.

Sharon and Swayam watch dance videos in the projector room. While there, they discuss about how the National Dance Championship will be structured. They also talks about how difficult it will be for them if they have to juggle their professional commitments while preparing for the National Dance Championship aka NDC. Swayam gets a call from Rey asking him to meet him in the rehearsal hall. Rey tells him to Sharon to come as well. Sharon and Swayam go to the rehearsal hall and see all the other members there as well. They all wonder why Rey called them for a meeting for urgently.

Rey comes in and tells the group that although he is happy they chose him as the captain, he will not be able to accept the position. He tells them that in place of him Swayam would be the best option. Swayam wonders why Rey stepped down while the rest of the team accept him as the new captain. Happy to see that he doesn't have the captaincy anymore, Rey rushed to tell Taani the good news only to be shot down by Taani again. Taani tells him that he shouldn't change his preferences just because Taani doesn't like them. She tells him that he should always listen to his heart. She doesn't want him to change just for her. Poor Taani! Rey is just so clueless at times! The guy just doesn't get it!

The rest of the D3 team talk about Sharon and Swayam. The Dazzlers mention that Sharon will always give their professional commitments preference over NDC related events. The Weaklings mention that Swayam, on the other hand, will give NDC related events preference over their professional commitments. The team wonders what will happen when they have to choose between their professional commitments and the student related commitments. Wonder what will happen when that day comes?! All hell breaks loose when Sharon and Swayam fight!

Rey goes to the locker room and wonders how he will make it up to Taani. When Swayam sees how down he looks, he asks him about why he dropped the captaincy. Rey tells him that he doesn't want to talk about it. The rest of the guys see Swayam and Rey in the locker room and ask them what's bothering them. They ask Rey if he has a problem with Taani. Swayam feels uncomfortable and leaves.  Rey looks on as the guys do stupid things...

Looks like the promos for the D3 episodes of V Rang Barse Holi specials are out!

The Boys...

The Entire Group...

** Ps - Don't forget! Make sure to check out new episodes on Friday from this week on! **

Daily Update: D3, March 18th & 19th, 2013

** Sharon Knows Best **

After watching the episode, the only title I could come up with was Sharon Knows Best! The D3 gang should have listened to her and Neha when they suggested that they prepare a Bollywood routine for the Sangeet. But of course the D3 gang being over confident, decided to prepare a freestyle routine and faced the consequences for not listening to their very able manager! 

The D3 gang get ready to perform after their initial shock of being given the store room as their green room. The boys and girls manage to get over their fear and get ready to perform. When they come down to the Sangeet location, they are shocked once again because they don't have a stage. Swayam tells the gang that since it's a Sangeet, there isn't going to be a stage. they'll have to perform at floor level. Regardless, the gang gets ready for their performance. Sharon cheers them on and hopes for the best. Just as she predicted, their freestyle routine is a big flop with the wedding guests. She quickly interrupts the performance and tells them that they have another routine up their sleeves. 

Before leaving for the venue, Sharon had called Taani and asked to her bring them costumes and music for a Bollywood performance as a back up. Good job Sharon! Sharon leads the gang to the store room and tells them that they don't have to worry as she has a plan. The gang is shocked to see Taani waiting for them in the room. Rey, especially, is the most happy person among all the gang members! Sharon tells them that she made arrangements just in case the wedding party didn't like their original routine. Vicki and Nilesh apologize to Sharon for insisting that they stick to their style. Sharon accepts their apology and tells them that they have to get ready for an impromptu Bollywood dance. 

Everyone gets ready but they are unsure about their performance. The Dazzlers tell Sharon that without her guidance, they won't be able to perform a good impromptu routine. Sharon tells them not to worry as she will guide them. Everyone is happy to hear that Sharon will be performing. They all rush to put on the final touches to their costumes. Sharon heads out of the room to use her inhaler before she dances. That's when she notices that her inhaler ran out. Suddenly Swayam appears as a knight in shining armor and offers Sharon an inhaler. He tells her that ever since he found out about Sharon's asthma, he's been keeping an inhaler with him at all times. Sharon thanks him for his help and gets ready. 

Under Sharon's guidance, the D3 team rock the Sangeet and the Wedding party thoroughly enjoy their performance.   

** Sharon is Back **

At the end of the performance, the D3 gang pull in the groom and the wedding party onto the dance floor. Everyone seems to have a good time. When suddenly Sharon starts to feel unwell. She starts having an asthmatic attack. Swayam notices the change in Sharon and pulls her out of the dance floor. He leads her to a quiet hallway and gives her an inhaler. He makes her sit down while he searches around for water. Sharon is overwhelmed with Swayam's concern. She tells him to calm down. Swayam does and then they talk. They've never actually talked before. It's always been fights or taunts. It was nice to see them actually bonding.

Simmi notices Sharon's absence and starts looking for her. She finally finds Swayam and Sharon talking. She's mildly surprised that they're laughing and seem to be enjoying each other's company. She then interrupts them and tells Sharon that she is needed. Sharon tells Simmi that only Swayam and her know about her asthma. Simmi is surprised that Sharon told Swayam about her asthma. I like how Simmi always tries to push Sharon towards Swayam. Looks like she's going to play cupid for SwaRon rather than Rey!

After their rocking performance at the Sangeet, the D3 gang celebrate in the rehearsal hall. Vicki and Nilesh apologize to Sharon for their rude behavior. Sharon gladly accepts their apology. She tells the gang that she for the first time since she got back, she feels happy and content. She also tells the gang that from now on she will dance with them. Everyone is elated to hear that Sharon will be dancing again! Swayam is happy to hear that Sharon will continue to pursue her passion while Simmi wonders about Sharon's asthma troubles.

Later that night Taani tries calling Rey but to no avail. It turns out that while Taani is busy calling Rey, Rey is trying to sneak into Taani's room via the window. When Taani finally sees Rey, she is surprised! She wonders why he came to visit her in the middle of the night and that too via the window. TaaRey have their usual romantic banter. Rey breaks Taani's table by mistake. Swayam hears the noise from Taani's room and goes to check up on her. He opens the door only to find Rey and Taani in an awkward position! Ouch! The inner Bhai in Swayam awakens and he politely but sternly asks Rey to leave. Rey apologizes for taking Swayam's friendship for granted.

Weekly Update: Suvreen Guggal - Topper of the year (3/4 - 3/7)

Yuvreen spend an amazing time in Bombay. So much so that they don't realize that they are late for their flight back to Delhi. When they realize the time, it is too late. Suvreen's dad calls Alisha and asks her about Suvreen. Alisha in all her deviousness, tells Suvreen's dad that Suvreen is not with her. She even tells him that Suvreen never came to her house at all. Suvreen's dad gets worried and calls Annie. Annie tells him that Suvreen is using the restroom in Naro's room and as soon as she comes out, she will have Suvreen call him. After she hangs up, she calls Suvreen and asks her what's going on. Suvreen tells her her situation and Annie comes up with a solution. Annie, Naro and Suvreen tell Suvreen's dad that Naro's not feeling well. They convince Suvreen's dad to let Suvreen stay with them for the night. Suvreen's dad agrees. Everyone is relived but Suvreen feels guilty for lying to her dad.

While spending Valentine's Day alone, RC receives a package. He opens it and finds his favorite chocolates and magazine. He instantly recognizes it as something only his long lost friend, Ira, would do. He soon gets a call from Ira. When RC suggests that they meet, Ira tells him that he'll have to find her first. Ira and RC went to college together and were close friends. They hoped to work together once they both accomplished something late in life. It's nice to see that RC has someone after Suvreen. He's not just the grieving lover. I'm intrigued to see what happens after Ira becomes a regular. Wonder if she'll have friction with Suvreen? Anyway, with the transition from college life to the real world coming soon, I'm hoping bringing in Ira's character facilitates that transition.

The next morning Suvreen and Yuvraj fly back to Delhi. Yuvraj drops Suvreen at her house. Suvreen is surprised to see her mom and Jasleen back home from Kathgodam. Although she is excited to see Jasleen, the same can't be said for Jasleen. Jasleen immediately feels wronged when her parents don't mind when Suvreen spends the night out with her friends. When Jasleen questions Suvreen about Naro's condition., she figures out that Suvreen is hiding something from their parents. Jasleen starts to suspect Suvreen was not with her friends after all. Suvreen, once again, feels guilty for lying to her family about her whereabouts. While Suvreen vows to find a solution for her problem, Jasleen vows to bring Suvreen's truth out in the open. Oh oh! Suvreen's in trouble!

When Suvreen meets Annie, Zorro and Naro at DPSC, they ask her about her Bombay trip. She tells them everything but also tells them that she feels guilty about hiding everything from her parents. She wonders if she should tell them the truth about her relationship with Yuvraj. Annie and Zorro strongly disagree with her. Even though they tell her that it would be best if she kept her relationship hidden from her parents, Suvreen still feels that telling the truth is her best option. Yuvraj on the other hand talks to Alisha about all the craziness that happened with their trip. Alisha vows to make sure that YuvReen constantly face problems and misunderstandings. Suvreen finally meets Yuvraj and tells him that she doesn't like lying to her parents. She tells him that she had decided to tell her parents about their relationship. Yuvraj freaks out and tries to make Suvreen understand that telling her parents about him is not the right option. Alisha overhears their conversation and is glad to witness their difference of opinion. She fuels Yuvi's confusion further.  

Suvreen goes home with the aim of telling her parents the truth. She starts by trying to talk to her mother first. While folding clothes, she tries telling her about Yuvraj but doesn't quite tell her about their relationship. Later she tries telling her parents the truth once again but she stops when she sees her parent's reaction when they talk about one of Jasleen's friends having a boyfriend. Suvreen realizes that now is not the right time to tell her parents truth. Later that night, Suvreen calls Yuvraj and talks to him. She tells him that she shouldn't have forced him to tell the truth. She ends the call by telling him that she loves him. Unknown to Suvreen, Jasleen listens to her conversation. She asks Suvreen who she was talking to. Suvreen lies to Jasleen and goes to bed. After Suvreen falls asleep, Jasleen looks through Suvreen's phone. She figures out that Suvreen and Yuvraj are in a relationship. Jasleen vows to brings this fact out in the open to teach Suvreen a lesson. Poor Suvreen! Now she has to not only watch out for Alisha's moves but also for Jasleen's moves as well!

Daily Update: D3, March 13th & 14th, 2013

After SwaRon have their meeting, Sharon goes over to Rey's place. She is distraught and needs a friend so she goes to meet Rey. Rey is shocked to see Sharon in such a state. He asks her what happened. Sharon tells him that Swayam and her broke up and this time for good. She breaks down and tells Rey that the break up was not Swayam's fault. She also asks Rey to promise her that he won't try to bring Swayam and her together anymore. She also asks him never to ask her why Swayam and her can't be together. Rey reluctantly agrees and calms Sharon down. After Sharon leaves, Rey realizes that if Sharon was so upset, Swayam must be in a worse state. He immediately goes over to Swayam's to talk to him.

Swayam comes home as a mess. Taani immediately realizes that he is upset but when she tries to talk to him, Swayam tells her that he wants to be alone. Some time later, Rey appears at the door. Taani is surprised to see Rey at such an hour. She asks him what's wrong but he tells her that he needs to talk to Swayam first. Taani understands and leaves. ReyAm have such an amazing friendship. When Rey was going through his Kriya phase, it was Swayam who stood by him and helped him through it. Now Rey is doing the same for Swayam. Rey gives him all the support that he needs to go through this difficult time. 

The next morning, Vicki and Nilesh call Rey and Swayam. They tell them that they need to have a team meeting soon. They need to figure out a way to earn money quickly. Rey and Swayam agree with them. Rey asks them why they didn't call Sharon first. Vicki tells them that Sharon's phone is unreachable. Rey wonders what's wrong but he assures Swayam that Sharon probably just needs some space. Sharon on the other hand makes her way to a temple, for the first time ever. She takes Simmi with her to keep an eye out for any familiar faces. Sharon at a temple - now that's an unfamiliar sight!

Here's the snippet from yesterday's episode...

Sharon watches what the other women do when she enters the temple and does the same. She prays that Swayam get the peace that he needs. How sweet! I like how Sharon prays for Swayam in stead of herself! She leaves feeling a but better. On the other hand, Rey tells Swayam that he should put up a brave face so that Sharon doesn't feel guilty about hurting him. Swayam agrees saying that he doesn't want to cause Sharon any more stress. At St. Louis, the D3 gang assemble in the rehearsal hall and discuss about how they can get the money that they so desperately need. Rey tries to reassure the group. Sharon is glad to see that Swayam does not look depressed or upset. The Dazzlers finally realize that no matter how big or small they should start taking each assignment seriously. The Weaklings agree with them. Neha tells the group that many famous people started out working small jobs. Sharon is glad to hear that everyone agrees that no offer is small.

Sharon tells the group that they got another offer on the website. The group impatiently ask her about it! She tells that that got offered to dance at a Sangeet. The girls get excited about dancing at a wedding but the boys get worried. Finally everyone agrees to take up the offer. They tell Sharon to agree and excitedly start discussing about choreography. Vicki and Nilesh suggest that they perform their usual style rather than doing Bollywood. Rey agrees with them saying that they were probably offered the job because the people watched their dance videos. Neha on the other hand suggests that they do Bollywood since it is a wedding after all. Everyone is surprised with Sharon agrees with Neha. But the majority votes for Hip Hop.

The team finally makes their way to the venue. Neha is happy to see the wedding is completely Bollywood style. The rest of the gang are confused. The girls become giddy with excitement and boys wonder why girls react this way when it comes to weddings! Finally the team are taken to the store room and told that they can change there. The team members are shocked when they are asked to use the store room as their green room. So will the D3 team make the Sangeet a memorable one? We'll have to wait for next week to see what happens!

Here's the snippet of today's episode...

From the preview of the coming week we saw that the D3 team performed Hip Hop but the groom wasn't impressed. But of course the gang wouldn't give up so easily. Check out the promo for their second performance! Looks fun!

PS - From next week on, there will be new episodes on Fridays as well! Yay!

Daily Update: D3, March 11th & 12th, 2013

The gang convince Rey to talk to Taani about postponing the due date of the deposit. Rey reluctantly agrees but is conflicted about whether she should talk to Taani about his professional matter in a personal setting. With all of this confusion playing in his mind, Rey makes his way to the fire exit where a patient Taani is waiting for him. Rey thinks about all the possible things that could go wrong and decides not to tell Taani to postpone the due date. He in stead tells her that he loves her and that she is perfect or him, much to the disappointment of the rest of the gang. After their meeting, Rey and Taani go to the cafeteria. Swayam and Sharon also make their way to the cafeteria. The gang eagerly ask Taani and Rey about her decision. A confused Taani looks to Rey but Rey tells everyone that he already told Taani about the team rejecting the first offer. The gang understand that Taani doesn't know about postponing the due date. Just then Swayam steps in and reminds Taani about her duties. Taani leaves and tells them that she'll see them later.  

The gang wonder about how they'll get the money to cover for the deposit. Rey suggests that each member contribute from their personal pocket money. Aashi reminds the Dazzlers and the Weaklings will not be able to contribute the same amount. Swayam tells the Weaklings that he can pay on their behalf and they can all pay him whenever they can. Bharat and Aashi disagree with him and tell him that they have to think of another way to come up with the money. Just then Swayam's phone rings. Swayam recognizes the number of Mr. Arora, the individual who wanted to hire the D3 team to dance at a birthday party. He wonders why he is calling him and not Sharon. Rey tells him that he added Swayam's name to their website. Swayam leaves the room to attend the call. Rinni wonders out loud why Mr. Arora isn't calling Sharon considering she is the manager of the team. 

An enraged Swayam comes back and immediately starts questioning Sharon about her decision to refuse the solo performance offer by Mr. Arora. Sharon tells him that it is non of his business. When the rest of the gang looks confused, Swayam tells them that Mr. Arora offered Sharon to dance solo for the same amount of money but Sharon refused. The team is shocked. Rey tells Sharon that she was wrong about hiding the offer from the rest of the team, especially when they are in need of the money. Aashi agrees with Swayam and Sharon calls her out. Now that was especially catty! Sharon tells him that she specifically told everyone that she wouldn't be dancing. She tells them it is her decision and she alone can decide if she can dance or not. She then storms off. Swayam runs after her. He pulls her in an abandoned class and questions her about her decision. When Sharon is adamant about her decision, Swayam calls her selfish and arrogant. He tells her that she will always be alone because of her attitude and leaves. A shattered Sharon finally decides to show Swayam why she can't dance anymore.

Wow! That was my first reaction when I watched Monday's episode. So many things happened! The SwaRon fight at the end was intense! Shatanu totally nailed it! It was nice seeing Swayam being more assertive and aggressive. Finally Swayam let out his mind and let Sharon know exactly how he feels. Also I expected Sharon to break down but I wanted her to accept that she is in love with Swayam. In stead Sharon just broke down because Swayam accused her of being selfish and arrogant. I'm glad that Swayam will finally find out the truth about Sharon's asthma. According to this article, we are going to get to see a lot of interesting things in future regarding TaaRey and SwaRon's romance.

So without further adieu, here's the snippet of Monday's episode...

Swayam thinks about all that happened between him and Sharon. He is upset that Sharon took such a selfish decision. Just then he gets a text message from Sharon asking him to meet her at St. Louis. Swayam wonders why she wants to meet him so late but he goes nevertheless. When he gets there, he sees Sharon dressed in costume. She dances for him and sure enough she gets an asthmatic attack. Swayam looks on in shock as Sharon proceeds to take out her inhaler and take a few breaths. Swayam finally understands why Sharon is so adamant about not dancing. He feels guilty about yelling at her earlier and calling her selfish. He apologizes to her for yelling at her. Sharon tells him that she didn't want to make him feel guilty. She merely was answering his questions.

Swayam asks Sharon about when she found out about her asthma. She tells him that it was after the dance camp. Swayam feels bad when he realizes that Sharon kept such a big thing from him. Sharon explains that she didn't want anyone's sympathy. She didn't want to be treated differently by people just because she has asthma. She especially didn't want Swayam to treat her differently. She finally tells Swayam that her disease has taken up such a big portion of her life that she doesn't have place for anyone else. She tells Swayam that dealing with her disease and her stress has left her no other option but to distance herself from Swayam. Swayam understand and tells Sharon that she will finally have the break-up that she wanted. With that Swayam walks out and leaves Sharon sobbing. Sharon thinks back to all the special moments she spent with Swayam.

Today's episode was intense and exactly what I wanted to see. SwaRon have finally reached an emotional point in their relationship. Swayam finally found about Sharon's affliction and Sharon admitted her fears to him. It was nice seeing Swayam as the strong one. He encouraged Sharon to follow her passion even though she has asthma. Now I wonder how SwaRon's relationship will progress now that the truth is out. I wonder what effect SwaRon's problems will have on TaaRey. I'm eagerly awaiting tomorrow's episode.

So here's the snippet of today's episode...

Last week was Shantanu's birthday so there have been a whole slew of his interviews. Here's one where he talks about how he was when he was a child. He's just too cute! And I have to say he totally rocks his Harry Potter inspired glasses!

Finally let me end this post with this message from CharMar. As you all know, CharMar were eliminated from Nach Baliye this past weekend much to the shock of everyone. Here's hoping they experience loads of success with Dil Dostii Dance and Best Friends Forever.

Daily Update: D3, March 6th & 7th, 2013

First off, let me start out saying that today is Shantanu's birthday!  Happy Birthday dude! You are awesome and keep up the good work! So here's a special birthday segment for all you Shantanu fans out there...

And here he is opening all of his awesome gifts! He totally rocks his Harry Potter glasses!

I've got to say Shantanu and Vrushika have a cute offscreen relationship! And its super hilarious when he laughs off the whole 'body-building' segment during the basketball track!



And finally, since it is Shantanu's birthday here's the V are Dating contest winner meeting her favorite character Swayam! Oh! He's so nice to the winner! 

Now moving on to Wednesday's episode...

Swayam confronts Sharon about her change in attitude. He tells her that is being rude to him for no reason. He even tells Sharon that he knows that she must have a special reason for her sudden change in behavior. When Sharon retaliates by telling him that there is no reason, Swayam tells her that he knows her better. Sharon asks him if he wanted to talk about their failed trial relationship. He tells her that he wanted to ask her why she isn't dancing anymore. Sharon tells him that she lost interest in dancing. Swayam calls her out on her lie. He tells her that if she lost interest in dance she wouldn't be the manager of D3. He pleads her to tell him why she's suddenly become distant. Just when Sharon is about to break, Simmi appears. Great timing, Simmi...

Simmi tells Sharon that everyone is waiting for her in the rehearsal hall. She also tells her that they are ready with a performance. The D3 gang gets ready to impress their potential clients. Rey goes over some choreography with the rest of the gang. After a while Vicki, Nilesh and the rest of the gang try to add their own signature moves. Rey looks on as the group do their thing. He gets a call from security. They tell him that there are some people asking for him at the gate. Rey assumes that they are the clients and tell security to let them in. He calls Taani and tells her to receive them at the gate and give them a tour of the college. It so happens that the clients are Sameer aka Saqib Saleem and Jasleen aka Rhea Chakraborty promoting Mere Dad Ki Maruti. After they leave, Rey plans a dinner date with Taani to make up for missing their lunch date. Aww! Taani is surprised by his gesture and is touched!

Here's a snippet...

While TaaRey are enjoying a romantic evening together, SwaRon are going through a rough patch. Sharon thinks about all that happened with Swayam. Even though she wants to tell him everything, she forces herself to stay away from Swayam. Just then Swayam appears and tries to talk to her once more.  Sharon bluntly refuses to answer any of his questions. They have an argument and Sharon starts to get an asthmatic attack. She tells Swayam to leave her alone. He obliges. 

The next morning, the D3 team meets in the rehearsal hall. They are disappointed about the clients not coming. Sharon tells them that they called her about the meeting. They told her that they are willing to meet only if D3 is interested in performing at their event. The Dazzlers take offense to the client's attitude and tell Sharon to refuse the event. Finally, Sharon tells the team that she has taken an executive decision and will refuse the offer. Neha and Bharat don't agree with her decision but Rey comes to her rescue. He tells the team that since Sharon is the manager of the team, she can take such decisions without consulting individual team members. So Sharon tells the team that she will call the clients and tell them they are not interested in their offer. 

Just after Sharon leaves, Taani comes in. She tells the team that since the VP has decided to give the D3 team the rehearsal hall on rent, they will have to pay a deposit of Rs 15,000. The gang is shocked to hear about the deposit. Taani also tells them that VP is expecting the team to pay their deposit by the end of the next day. The gang is stunned to hear about the deadline. Taani tells Sharon that since she is responsible for collecting the deposit amount, she would like it is Sharon gives her the entire sum by the deadline. After Taani leaves, the gang tries to think about how they will come up with the deposit. Aashi suggests that they talks to Swayam. Sharon doesn't quite approve of Swayam and Aashi's budding friendship. Before she can refuse, Neha tells Sharon that she will have to talk to Sharon since she is the manager. 

Sharon reluctantly agrees and goes to meet Swayam. Once again she is rude as can be. She tells Swayam about her decision to refuse the assignment and about the deposit. They try to think of a way to come up with the money for the deposit. Meanwhile, the rest of the gang try to convince Rey to speak to Taani about extending the date of the deadline to pay the deposit. They tell him that there is no way they can come up with the money so quickly. He refuses but they keep trying. Rey wonders how he can talk to Taani about his professional matter in a personal setting. I sense trouble ahead for TaaRey.

Here's the snippet...

And finally, looks like Swayam will finally find out the truth about why Sharon decided to stop dancing. Check out this promo...

   

Will Swayam finally find out why Sharon suddenly 'lost interest' in dancing? Will Sharon finally tell him the truth as to why she has been avoiding him? Will SwaRon get back together after the truth comes out? So many questions! Can't wait till next week.

Now for some sad news: CharMar are out of Nach Baliye this week. They've had a rocky journey so far. None of their performance were ever bad but they failed to hit the mark consistently. It looks their inconsistent performance finally took their toll. I just can't believe that the same couple who was number one last week is getting booted out this week. Well, I wish CharMar all the best for the future.  

Daily Update: D3, March 4th & 5th, 2013

We left off last week with the D3 gang discussing about renting the college rehearsal hall. The Dazzlers are okay with paying rent while the Weaklings are a bit more hesitant. Swayam notices that the Weaklings are not comfortable with paying rent. He tries to make the Dazzlers realize that coming up with the money for the rent may not be easy for everyone. The Dazzlers along with Sharon and Rey understand what Swayam is trying to make them aware of. Rey steps up and tells everyone that he's willing to pay for the rent but Neha disagrees and tells him that the entire group should contribute not just one person. Everyone agrees. Sharon, Rey and Swayam wonder how they will approach the VP about renting the rehearsal hall. Sharon tells them that if someone unassuming approaches the VP, he is more likely to ask for less rent than if Sharon or Rey approach the VP. Everyone agrees and Neha and Bharat are chosen to speak to the VP. 

The next day, Bharat and Neha go to meet with the VP. Even though Bharat and Neha stumble, they manage to speak to the VP and he agrees to give team D3 the rehearsal hall on rent. He sets the rent at Rs. 15,000. The rest of gang watches the meeting on Swayam's laptop and is overjoyed to hear that they have finally gotten a place to rehearse. The team meets in the cafeteria to talk about their next step. Rey and Sharon tell the group that their next step will be marketing the team. Sharon suggests that they create a website and upload videos and pictures. She also suggests that they make pamphlets and posters. Rey asks her to choose a member from the group to help her with marketing and the website. Much to the surprise of everyone, she chooses Swayam to help her. 

Swayam and Sharon take pictures of the group. They also work on creating a logo for D3. Simmi comes up with the best logo and they decide to adopt it. In the middle of all this, poor Taani feel left out. She feels as if Rey has no time just for her. Even when he is with her, he is consumed with work for the dance team. I hope Rey is able to balance his professional and personal life soon...

Here is what happened on Monday...

Swayam shows the rest of the gang their team website. They are excited and hope that this gets them some good offers. Sharon tells them that website is online. Just then she gets a call. The calls happens to be an assignment. The team is excited that they got a positive response so quickly. Sharon tells them that they will be paid Rs. 15,000 for the assignment. The team gets excited and ask her what is is for. When she tells them that it is for a birthday party, they feel dejected. They feel as if it's not up to their standards. The Dazzlers are disappointed and vote to refuse the assignment even though they will get paid. The Weaklings on the other hand feel that even though the assignment may not be what they expected, they shouldn't let it go. With the team divided, Rey asks Swayam his opinion. Swayam tells him that even though it may not be what they were expecting, they shouldn't just say no. Sharon agrees. Aashi suggest that before they make a decision, they should first meet the people who offered them the assignment. Everyone agrees.  

Rey and Taani finally spend some time with each other. They have a hear-to-heart. Rey apologizes for not being able to spend quality time with Taani. Taani on the other hand tells Rey and she understands that the team has suddenly become an important part of his life. She tells him that not that they have become a professional dance troupe, he has a lot of responsibilities to fulfill. Rey thanks her for being understanding. He promises to take Taani out on a lunch date so they can spend more time together. Taani is overjoyed and is excited. But when Rey find out that the meeting with the potential clients is set during lunch time, he feels bad as he will have to cancel their lunch date.

Rey goes to Taani while she is having a meeting with students about filling the captaincy positions that are vacant after Vicki, Neha and Amar gave up their captaincy. Reluctantly she steps out of the meeting  when Rey insists on talking to her. He tells her that he will have to cancel their lunch date because the team needs him. What?! He should have told her that they are meeting with clients! She would have surely understood and supported him. Anyway, Taani is upset but tells Rey that he can whatever he pleases. She then goes back to the meeting leaving Rey stunned. He hopes that Taani is able to understand his predicament. 

Here's what happened in today's episode...

Sorry guys the snippet isn't up yet. I'll update the post as soon as it becomes available

If you guys watched Nach Baliye last weekend, you saw the D3 team perform. Looks like this may be the professional performance Sharon tells the gang about in the preview. According to this article, the D3 Nach performance is going to used in a episode.



D3 was absolutely amazing! They totally rocked it! If you notice Amar is missing and Vrinda & Vrushika are performing. I wonder how they'll weave that into the story considering TaaRey are starting to have some relationship problems and Sharon is adamant that she's just the manager of D3 and not part of the dance team...

And finally, check out this article written by none other than our very own Swayam aka Shantanu Maheshwari. Shantanu writes about how he came into acting and his experience being on D3...

Weekly Update: Suvreen Guggal (2/25 - 2/28)

Last week we witnessed what could be the most romantic YuvReen moment after the kiss, of course! It was just so cute and perfect! We also witnessed, Alisha stepping into villain mode and promising to ruin YuvReen's first Valentine's Day. Just look at the way she destroys that poor piece of cake! Let's see if she succeeds...

Yuvraj wonders about what he is going to do for Valentine's day. He wants to do something special for Suvreen so he asks Alisha for her help. Wrong choice buddy - The girl is out to get your girlfriend! Anyway, Alisha agrees and hopes to ruin YuvReen's Valentine's day. Yuvi waits outside Suvreen's house to give her a ride to DPSC. He calls her and she is surprised by his gesture. She tells him that he doesn't have to drop her and pick her up but if it makes him happy, he can. Oh YuvReen, they always find happiness in the simple pleasures of life! Alisha, on the other hand, constantly tells Yuvi that now that he is not just Suvreen's friend, he has to do something grand and special for her. Yuvi disagrees and tells Alisha that Suvreen is a simple girl and enjoys simple things. He doesn't have to do grand things to impress her.

Suvreen tells Annie, Naro and Zorro about Yuvi's gesture. They tell her that from now on she will have to get used such special treatment by Yuvi. They ask her if she has any plans for Valentine's day. She tells them that she planned a surprise for Yuvraj. Alisha strongly discourages Suvreen from doing anything special for Yuvi. She tells Suvreen that she should give Yuvi a chance to do something special for her rather than the other way around. Naro and Zorro disagree but Annie agrees with Alisha. She tells Suvreen that even though she knows that Yuvi's feelings for her are genuine, she should let Yuvi do something for a change. Suvreen thinks about it while Alisha secretly thanks Annie for indirectly supporting her plan. Now, considering Zorro is the most perceptive person in the lot, I can't believe he hasn't caught on to Alisha's ill intentions. I can't wait to see what happens when he finds out.

Yuvi finally figures out what he wants to do for Valentine's Day and thinks of the most cute way to ask his Topper out on a date! Of course Suvreen agrees! Yuvi tells her that she will have to ask her father permission to stay out till late at night. Suvreen wonders what Yuvi has planned but he doesn't tell her. She calls Alisha and explains the situation. This was exactly the thing that Alisha needed to set her plan in motion. She tells Suvreen to tell her dad that she is going to be in her house watching movies along with her friends. Suvreen agrees and thanks Alisha for covering for her. Alisha obliges and says some villainous things. From the way Alisha's character is progressing, it seriously looks like the girl has some underlying mental health issues! She is obsessed with Yuvi to the point where she thinks Suvreen deliberately stole him away from her. If anyone ever confronted her, I can only imagine what crazy stunt she would pull.

Finally Valentine's Day arrives. Yuvraj goes to Suvreen's house to pick her up. She is surprised to see him there. He tells her to leave fast so that they don't get late. They finally leave and sit in a car. Suvreen asks him what happened to Laila, Yuvi's trusted red jeep. He tells her that this is the surprise. He tells her that he is going to take her to Bombay because she has never seen the beach. Suvreen is shocked at first. She panics when he tells her that they are going to Bombay. But Yuvi manages to calm her down. He tells her that they will take the flight there, spend some time in the city and return at night. He promises to get her back home before it is too late. Finally Suvreen agrees and two set out to Bombay. How crazy is that! The two of them just drop everything and set out to Bombay for a day.

When they reach Bombay, they drive all around the city and see all the landmarks. Suvreen tells Yuvraj that Tultuli had been to Bombay twice. She tells him that it was a dream for her to come to Bombay. Yuvi is happy to see Suvreen so happy. He tells her that later in the day he planned for them to go to a resort. Suvreen feels uncomfortable about going to a resort and asks him what he plans on doing once they are there. He tells her that they have special programs for Valentine's Day. Suvreen agrees but once they reach the resort, they see that it is closed. Suvreen is confused and asks Yuvi if he checked the place before booking it. Suvreen gets upset when Yuvi tells her that he didn't really look into the place. They have a cute lover's spat and Suvreen storms off with Yuvi running behind her. As quickly as they fight, they make up. Suvreen sees the beach in the distance and heads towards it.

YuvReen spend some romantic moments on the beach. Suvreen tells Yuvi that she felt safe in Kathgodam and never really felt safe in Delhi but in Bombay she feels safe again. Yuvi reassures her that no matter where she goes, he will always be with her. Aww! They are just so cute together! While YuvReen are having a good time, Alisha frantically tries to contact Suvreen and Yuvraj. They promised to call her on Valentine's day and since they didn't call her, she starts panicking. She planned to ruin their day by doing something but since she doesn't know what Yuvi planned her Suvreen, she feels helpless. It so happens that the stars align in Alisha's favor and Suvreen's dad calls Alisha. Alisha recognizes her chance and does not miss her only opportunity to ruin YuvReen's love story forever. She tells Suvreen's dad that Suvreen isn't at her house. Suvreen's dad gets worried and wonders why she lied to him. While Alisha rejoices in her victory, poor Suvreen is clueless...

From next week's preview, it looks like Yuvi and Suvreen will not be able to make it back to Delhi on the same day. Wonder what Suvreen will do now?!

Here's the snapshot of what happened this week...

Earlier, I mentioned that the makers of Suvreen Guggal were considering a leap for the show. Looks like the leap will happen according to this article. It also looks like RC will have a love interest. This suggests that Suvreen and Yuvraj are probably still going to be a couple after the leap - now that's exciting!

Daily Update: D3, February 28th, 2013

Now the episode...

The D3 gang enjoy themselves at the party. They are happy to hear that the board members are proud of their achievements. While the rest of the gang danced, Sharon and Swayam were the only ones who were not dancing. Sharon wonders to herself why Swayam isn't asking her for a dance. Swayam tells her that he doesn't want to ruin her beauty by standing next to her. Aww! Swayam is such a lover boy! He totally reveres Sharon! When the VP questions them about why they aren't dancing, Sharon pulls Swayam to the dance floor and dances with him. It was nice to see Sharon dragging Swayam around rather than the other way around!

Just when they are about to leave, the VP asks them about their rehearsal arrangements. He tells them that now that they are a professional group, they can't use the college facilities anymore. He tells them that they will have to find their own rehearsal hall. The gang is shocked and taken aback by the VP's comments. They all decide to meet at Bharat's garage to discuss their rehearsal hall situation.

The entire gang assembles in Bharat's garage except for Sharon. Rey wonder why Sharon hasn't come as yet and Swayam tells him that it's probably because of the location. Swayam explains that Sharon wouldn't want to come to such a low class place. Rey agrees but Simmi gets defensive. She feels that the garage would aggregate Sharon's asthma. She tells Swayam and Bharat that they should change the meeting place. Swayam tells Simmi that just because Sharon isn't comfortable meeting at the garage, they can't change the meeting place. Everyone is shocked to hear Swayam talking against Sharon. Bharat steps in and tells the gang about all the dreams that Swayam had about Sharon. He even tells them that Swayam convinced him to service Sharon's car for free! Finally Sharon arrives. Simmi immediately asks if she is okay. Sharon assures her that she will be fine.

The gang starts discussing about their possible options. Taani tells them that if they are willing to pay a rent for the rehearsal hall, the VP should allow them to use the college facility. Rey asks Taani what would be the rent required for the hall. Taani suggests an amount between 15-20 thousand. The Dazzlers are glad to pay the rent but the Weaklings look worried. Swayam is the only one who notices that the groups are divided.
