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!

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!

Weekly Update: Suvreen Guggal - Topper of the year (2/19 - 2/21)

Last week ended with Yuvraj finally telling Suvreen how he felt about her. It was such an epic moment! I couldn't wait to see what Suvreen does. Does she give Yuvraj another chance or does she lock up her heart?

Suvreen leaves the party and goes to Naro's room to collect her things. Annie and Naro see her there and try to talk to her. They tell her that they knew that Yuvraj wanted to propose but they didn't know when. They tell her that he planned to propose to her on Vivaan's birthday. Suvreen is surprised to hear this but she tells them that she had to leave. RC storms out of the party and thinks back to all the times he saw Suvreen with Yuvraj. He wonders how he could have missed noticing that Suvreen and Yuvraj were in love with each other. He feels guilty for what he was planning to do. On the other hand, Alisha feels deserted by Yuvraj. She thought Yuvraj and her had a connection. She vows to keep Yuvraj and Suvreen apart. She goes to her house and breaks down. Yuvraj calls her to apologize and messing up her birthday. He asks her why she left the party all of a sudden. Really? You create a scene at her party and leave and then ask her why she's not there waiting for you?! Yuvi sometimes you really make me wonder. Anyway, Alisha lies to Yuvi and accepts his apology.

The next morning, Manu and Rathi worry about Yuvraj. Yuvi asks them if they heard anything from Annie or Naro. They tell him that Annie and Naro tried to talk to Suvreen but her phone has been switched off since last night. Yuvi feels bad about hurting Suvreen. Just then Suvreen calls him and tells him that she has made her decision and wants to meet him. Yuvraj, although excited, wonders what her decision will be. Manu and Rathi ask him how he will react if she says no. He tells them no matter her decision, he will respect it. Annie, Naro and Zorro wait for Suvreen in DPSC. They wonder what her decision will be. When they spot her, Annie and Naro try to talk to her but she doesn't tell them anything. Zorro notices Suvreen's discomfort and tells Annie and Naro to let Suvreen go. After Suvreen leaves, Manu and Rathi also join them. They all wonder what her answer will be. While Rathi is confident that Suvreen will say yes, Annie hopes for the best. 

Yuvraj and Suvreen meet in the same room where Suvreen previously confessed her feelings to Yuvraj.   I've got to say YuvReen are just too cute together. I absolutely loved their confession. The expression on Yuvi's face and the shy smile on Suvreen's face just made it that much more special. Smriti and Shivin have awesome chemistry! They totally made the scene that much more special! 

YuvReen tell their friends about their relationship. All of their friends are excited to see them finally together. They are celebrate at the V Spot Cafe. There Rishab, Yuvi's cousin announces that the food and drinks are on the house in celebration of YuvReen's relationship. He also tells everyone that Yuvi partly owns the cafe. Suvreen is surprised to hear that Yuvi is a part owner of the cafe. She thanks him for helping her when things were not right between them. Yuvi tells her that no matter what happens, they will always be friends. Yuvraj notices that Alisha isn't around. Suvreen tells him to call Alisha and ask her to come to the cafe. Everyone encourages Suvreen to sing but she doesn't oblige. Finally Yuvi asks her to sing and she immediately says yes. All their friends ooh and aah at the sight! It's so cute. to see both of them finally together.

Suvreen and Yuvraj are happily dancing together when Alisha makes an appearance. She can't control her anger when she sees Yuvraj and Suvreen together. I always knew that Alisha was high strung so this week's episodes were not a shock for me. Alisha grew up in a world where people either use other people or get used themselves. She always assumes the worst in people and never lets them get beyond a professional relationship. Even when she extends a hand of friendship to Suvreen, she doesn't mean to become friends rather she meant for it to be a profitable professional relationship. She knew that if Suvreen and her worked together they would be a formidable team. With Yuvraj her equation was different. For the first time, Alisha let someone in. He affected her in a way which was completely unexpected. After spending time with Yuvi, she realized that she had started falling for him. 

Just when she was about to tell him how she felt, she saw him propose his love for her rival. This shattered her. Alisha sort of had a mental breakdown. She lost control and tried really hard to understand why that happened to her. I expected her to have a breakdown but not to this extent. She almost made me question if she had any mental health issues! Heli did a really good job portraying Alisha's anger and loneliness. Although I feel bad for Alisha, I don't sympathize with her. Both Alisha and RC had their hearts broken on the night of the party but their different reactions to the event just shows how different they are. For Alisha, Yuvi is someone she lost because of Suvreen. For her the fact that Yuvi and Suvreen love each other is irrelevant. The only thing that matters to her is the fact that Suvreen got what she wanted. For RC on the other hand, he understood that Suvreen would not be happy with anyone else other than Yuvi and hence he decided to step away. With Alisha vowing to destroy their relationship, I wonder what craziness awaits Suvreen and Yuvraj. I just hope that their relationship is strong enough to brave any storm that comes their way.

So here's a snippet of what happened this week...

Weekly Update: Suvreen Guggal - Topper of the year (1/28 - 1/31)

After Alisha steps back, Suvreen wonders what more she can do to make sure that Yuvraj gets his justice. Even though Yuvi tells her to drop the case, Suvreen continues her fight. Yuvraj worries about Suvreen's safety and doesn't want any of his other friends to get into trouble so he tells them that the nest thing would be to drop the case. Annie, Naro, Manu and Rathi reluctantly agree with Yuvi but Suvreen wants to get justice. RC assures her that even though what she wants is right, she has to try to understand why her friends are backing out. 

Suvreen decides to finally talk to Jasleen about stepping up and becoming a witness. When Jasleen flat out refuses, Suvreen points out that Yuvraj was injured while trying to save her from the thugs. She should be thanking Yuvi rather than hiding from the truth. When their parents find out the real reason behind Yuvi's injuries, they are shocked. They try to make Jasleen realize that is anything were to happen to Yuvi, it would be Jasleen's fault. Being a selfish teenager, Jasleen blames Yuvi for what happened. I like how she refuses to acknowledge that she made a bad decision and now she has to face the consequences of her decision. 

Yuvi on the other hand is back in DPSC. Manu, Rathi, Annie and Naro throw a special surprise for him in his hostel room. He is happy to be back but wonders where Suvreen is. He tries to convince Suvreen to back out but she refuses. She tells him that no matter what she will keep fighting for justice. Later Suvreen tells her father than Jasleen can step up by becoming a witness. Her father refuses. He doesn't want his daughters to be involved with any kind of police case because he doesn't want anything bad to happen to them. 

Suvreen is disappointed that her parents don't support her fight. She tries to move past it but when a policeman calls her and tells her that the thugs are going to be released, she decides to have a talk with her parents. She tells her father that she understands his fears but she makes him realize that she is doing what he always taught her to do - Stand up for what is right. After a long discussion, her parents agree much to Jasleen's dismay. Suvreen and her father take Jasleen to the police station and are able to stop the thugs' release just in time. When her friends find out that what she did, they all come to the police station. YuvReen share a romantic moment after a long time. It almost made me saw "Awww!" 

Just when everything is getting back to normal, Jasleen steps in to rain on Suvreen's parade. She tells Suvreen that if anything happens to her because of her involvement in the police case, she will never forgive Suvreen. This Jasleen girl is starting to get on my nerves! Everyone around her supports her so I don't understand why she is still so negative. Her sister and her parents are all with her and pledge to keep her safe so why does she have to blame everyone around her? Maybe it's her teenage selfishness getting in the way. But enough is enough!

I was starting to wonder what happened to Vivaan since the whole dinner incident. I finally got my answer - Vivaan was at camp. So he missed all the Yuvi drama. When RC told him about what happened, he was shocked and happy that everything worked out. I'm glad to see Vivaan back. I missed that naughty kid! Of course he teases RC about Suvreen. But RC ponders if Suvreen is in love with Yuvi considering the way she reacted and was affected by what happened to him. On the other hand, Yuvi wonders if Suvreen has developed a soft corner for RC because of his support and help with Yuvi's case. This whole life-threatening incident makes Yuvi realize that no matter what he should tell Suvreen how he feels about her. Finally! 

I mentioned in a previous post about Zorro's perceptive nature. This week he was able to come to the correct conclusion that RC does look at Suvreen as more that just a student. I wonder if Zorro will tell Annie about what he thinks. I wonder if he will try to see if Suvreen too has feelings for RC. He also noticed how jealous Yuvi gets when Suvreen talks about RC or is around RC. I wonder what will happen there. And yes Alisha has totally fallen for Yuvi and she doesn't seem to be the kind of gal who would sacrifice her love for a friend...

Weekly Update: Suvreen Guggal - Topper of the year (1/21-1/24)

The Cheetah is back! After a week of drama regarding Yuvi's health, Yuvi regains consciousness! Yay! Of course, Yuvi wouldn't be out of action for a long time but I had my doubts. I wonder if Shivin asked for vacation! Back to some serious stuff, Yuvi gains consciousness and the troubles begin...

Suvreen and her friends protest outside the police station. The police inspector is unfazed. He tells everyone that once the students realize that nothing will happen because of their protests, they will leave. But when the protesters don't leave, he orders the other policemen to chase out the protesters. He knew that his action would trigger the students to become violent. Just as he hoped, a policeman is injured and Suvreen, Manu, Rathi, Annie and Naro and many others are arrested.

News of the protest reaches RC. He pulls some strings and arranges bail for Suvreen and rest of the students. He also tells the inspector that he spoke to commissioner regarding the case and the commissioner's office has issued an arrest warrant for the thugs who attacked Yuvi and molested Alisha. Suvreen and her friends are happy to hear that finally something will happen and Yuvi will get his justice. They thank RC and make their way to the hospital to visit Yuvi.

When they get to the hospital, more good news - Yuvi is awake! Everyone argues about who will be the first to visit Yuvi, when Manu and Rathi sneak in. I love their scene! It is so emotional and funny all at the same time. I love their friendship. After them, the girls too make their way in. Annie, Alisha and Naro are happy to see that Yuvi is finally recovering. Alisha thanks Yuvi for standing up for her. Finally Suvreen comes in. The others leave giving YuvReen some privacy.

I really hoped that Yuvi would tell Suvreen that he loved her but instead he told her he didn't want to die. Really? I'm starting to lose my patience. How much longer is it going to take Yuvi to muster up the courage to tell Suvreen that he loves her? What really got to me was that even in the middle of all this, Yuvi was jealous of RC. Really man? Your girl went to jail for you! What more do you want? Yuvi should be thanking RC for getting his girl out of prison!

Suvreen tells her parents and Jasleen that Yuvi is getting better. They are all overjoyed. Jasleen is relieved that she doesn't have to testify anymore. She is happy because she doesn't have to guilty anymore. I get that Jasleen is young and hence she is naive but really? This girl is so crooked! I can't wait for when she has to face the consequences of her actions. When will she learn to be responsible? All she does is blame other people for her actions. She knows she should help but she hides behind excuses.

RC tells Suvreen that the thugs who attacked Yuvi have been caught. Just when things are finally happening, all hell breaks lose. It turns out that one of the thugs is from an affluent family. So he has the connections to make petty allegations like this disappear. One of his hired goons leaves a threatening note in Yuvi's room. They want him to drop the case or bad things will happen to his friends. His goons even send a threatening letter to Alisha's mother telling her that if she testifies then they will burn her face with acid. Even RC is not spared. The goons almost run him over.

When it comes time for Alisha to come to the police station to identify the thugs, she doesn't show up. That's when the thug has a confrontation with Suvreen. He tells her that he will not stay locked up for long. He also tells her that even if the witness wants to testify, she will not be able to. Suvreen wonders what he meant. When she finds out about the threats, she realizes that this is much more serious and dangerous than she thought. From the previews of the upcoming episodes, it seems like Suvreen will try to convince Jasleen to testify. They have an argument and their parents will find out the truth about the whole situation. I wonder what her parents will decide after they find out that Jasleen was the one who caused all of this.

As I mentioned earlier, the makers of Suvreen Guggal should be applauded for taking up such serious issues in their show. The core audience of their show is the youth and I really like that they use their show as a medium to inform the youth of their rights and responsibilities. I can't wait to see how they are going to handle this entire Eve Teasing track. Suvreen Guggal episodes this week reminded me of No One Killed Jessica. After watching movies like No One Killed Jessica and reading about the Jessica Lal murder case, it is disheartening seeing people with power and means getting away with murder. This current track also reminded me of the Keenan and Reuben murder case where Keenan and Reuben were brutally attacked by eve-teasers when they tried to save their female friends. So does that mean that justice is not for the common man? A simple show like Suvreen Guggal raises such an important question.

Weekly Update: Suvreen Guggal - Topper of the year (1/14 - 1/17)

Grim and emotional - That's how I would describe this week's episodes of Suvreen Guggal. I've barely started watching Suvreen Guggal and this show is already starting to make an impact on me. I went back and watched the series of episodes regarding Naro's ordeal and loved the way Suvreen and Yuvraj joined forces to get Naro the justice she deserved. What I love the most about Suvreen is her fighting spirit. She fights whenever she sees injustice. She doesn't step down just because she is a young or a student or she doesn't have fancy connections. She has the courage to fight for what is right. On top of all that, Suvreen is such a relatable character. She is a normal middle-class girl with normal aspirations.

This week started off with Yuvi's unfortunate stabbing. While Yuvi, Alisha and Jasleen are leaving the lounge, they are attacked by a group of drunks. Yuvi tries to save the girls and in the process gets brutally attacked and stabbed. Alisha and Jasleen plead for help from the passersby but no one helps them. Just then Suvreen calls Yuvi's cell to thank him for all his help during the fashion show. Alisha tells Suvreen about what happened. After speaking to Suvreen, Alisha tells Jasleen to go home since she doesn't want her to get involved with the police or the hospital mess. Finally a taxi driver comes to their rescue and agrees to take Alisha and Yuvi to the city hospital. When they reach the hospital, the doctors refuse to admit Yuvi claiming that since it is a police case, they can't do anything unless the police file a report. The police finally arrive but don't do anything.

Suvreen, Zorro and RC finally reach the hospital. Suvreen is shocked to see Yuvi in such a state. She begs the police to file the report but to no avail. When they don't do anything, RC calls one of his connections and makes the police inspector do his job. Yuvi is admitted and taken to the ICU. Annie, Manu, Naro and Rathi also come to the hospital and are all hurt to see Yuvi in such a state. The doctors tell them that Yuvi has suffered a lot of internal bleeding. He tells them that Yuvi's condition is very critical. RC tells Manu and Rathi to call Yuvi's family and inform them about his situation. While they are waiting in the waiting area, Alisha tells everyone about what happened. She tells them that Jasleen was also there and Yuvi was trying to protect both of them. Suvreen is shocked to hear that Jasleen was at the lounge. She decides to go home and have a word with Jasleen. Annie and Naro take Alisha to the hostel with them.

By the time Suvreen gets home, her parents are already questioning Jasleen about where Suvreen could be. She tells them about Yuvi's stabbing and they are shocked. They notice how distraught Suvreen is as a result of the incident. Suvreen has a word with Jasleen and tells her that it was because of her that Yuvi was attacked and she has to face the consequences of her actions. During the night Suvreen calls the boys and they tell her that Yuvi has been put on life support. She is completely torn and rushes to the hospital. Jasleen feels guilty about what happened but she is scared of getting involved. She doesn't want her parents to know that she was out that night and that she was the one who started the fight. I understand that she is young and naive but come on. She made a mistake and she should have to face the consequences of her actions. What I can't believe is that in the middle of all this she still calls that Vicki guy and asks him for advice. The guy was hiding behind cars secretly watching Yuvi get stabbed. What kind of advice can he offer?

The next morning, Naro tells Alisha that she will have to be brave. She tells her that she is the one who can make sure that Yuvi gets his justice. She tells her that she will have to be a witness. Alisha is determined to bring the drunks who attacked her and Yuvi to justice. Suvreen and the boys go to the police station in the morning to find out about the progress of the investigation. There they are met with a rude awakening. The police inspector tells them that nothing can be done since Yuvi is still alive and Alisha wasn't raped. Suvreen is shocked by the police inspector's apathy and tells him that he is not doing his job. He tells her that nothing will change just because she raised her voice. He needs witnesses to continue the investigation. Suvreen and the boys decide to do all they can to help Yuvi. They go back to the police station with Alisha. The police inspector questions her character because she was wearing a 'short dress.' He also tells them that as per the taxi driver's statement, there were two girls and without the second girl, the investigation will not move forward. The police inspector's apathy sparks a fire in Suvreen. She decides that enough is enough. I have to commend Smriti on her acting! I could totally feel her pain and anguish. From this week's episodes it is obvious that Suvreen still loves Yuvraj. Also after witnessing Yuvi's heroism, Alisha too has started to develop a soft corner for him.

So here's is a snapshot of what happened this week...

Weekly Update: Suvreen Guggal - Topper of the year (1/7-1/10)

After the whole secret admirer incident, Yuvi makes it his mission to find out who sent Suvreen the flowers and arranged for the musicians. He is curious to know who would plan something like this for Suvreen. I believe there is a hint of jealousy in there too. Also from the way Suvreen reacted, I have a feelings she still has feelings for him. Yuvi enlists the help of Naro to find out the identity of the secret admirer. When the flower company contacts RC, he tells them not to disclose his information. The company calls Yuvi and refuses to disclose any information squashing Yuvi's plan.

Annie, Manu, Rathi and Zorro wonder who could be Suvreen's potential secret admirer if not for Yuvraj. Yuvraj tells them not to talk about it in front of Suvreen as she is hurt by the whole thing. When Suvreen and Alisha join the gang, they start discussing about their social awareness campaign. Suvreen tells her friends about the Delhi Gang Rape case. Her friends are in shock that such a brutal incident can take place on a bus. Manu and Rathi say things which hurt Naro's sentiments and she leaves. Annie and Zorro try to talk to her but she asks them to give her some time alone. Zorro assures Annie that Naro will be alright. Manu and Rathi plan a special medal ceremony to tell them how proud they are to have Naro as a friend. They commend her bravery.

Meanwhile, RC asks Suvreen out for dinner. Suvreen misunderstand the reason behind his invitation. She thinks that RC wants to celebrate their win at the fashion show. She excitedly agrees. RC thinks that Suvreen may have feelings for him and is happy she accepted his invitation. He plans out a romantic evening for the two of them. Vivan is excited that RC is finally going to tell Suvreen how he feels. Suvreen on the other hand is clueless about RC's feelings. She calls Zorro and tells him that RC is inviting the both of them for dinner to celebrate their win at the fashion show. Both of them are excited to be treated by their mentor.

Yuvi gets a call from a model-coordinator and goes out to meet him. The coordinator tells him that Alisha recommended him. He also tells him that he is very impressed and will definitely book him for future fashion shows. Yuvi is glad to hear that and calls Alisha to thank her. Alisha tells him that if he really wants to thank her, he should take her out to dinner. He agrees and the both of them plan to go out the next night. Looks like Alisha is seriously falling for Yuvi! And clueless Yuvi has no inkling as to what's happening!

On the day of the dinner with RC, Suvreen's mom tells her that she will have to stay home with Jasleen. Suvreen's mom and dad have been invited to a pooja and they have to go. Suvreen tells her mom that she has important plans but her mother tells her that she will have to cancel them and stay home with Jasleen since she doesn't want Jasleen to be home alone. Jasleen hears all of this and finds her way out. She made plans to go on a date with Vicki, the guy she met on the internet, but didn't know how she would get out of the house. Once her parents leave, Jasleen tells Suvreen that she should not cancel her plans. She will stay at home and Suvreen doesn't have to babysit her. She also promises Suvreen that their parents will not find out. Suvreen agrees and leaves for the dinner. Right after Suvreen leaves, Jasleen also sneaks out to meet Vickie.

RC is happy to see Suvreen but his happiness disappears when he sees Zorro. He thinks that Suvreen invited Zorro because she didn't feel comfortable meeting him alone. Zorro thanks RC for celebrating their win and taking them out to dinner. When they go inside the restaurant, Zorro is confused as to why the table is set for two rather than three. All through the night he notices that there is something off about RC. Suvreen doesn't seem to notice anything. Instead she is excited to be invited to dinner by her mentor. Zorro questions if RC has feelings for Suvreen. He wonders if Suvreen too has feelings for RC. Zorro proposes a toast to Yuvraj for helping them win the fashion show. He notices Suvreen's reaction and realizes that Suvreen is still in love with Yuvraj. I like how Zorro, the stereotypical gay character, is the most intuitive person on the show. I like how he is always the first one to figure out such things. I wonder if he is the one who figured out that RC is Suvreen's secret admirer.

Alisha and Yuvi go a trendy place for dinner. There they talk and have a good time. Yuvi spots Jasleen in the same restaurant and is shocked to see her out with a guy. He goes up to her and surprises her. Jasleen is shocked to see Yuvraj there and lies to him that she told Suvreen about her plans. Yuvi catches her lie and tells her that she should leave with him. Just as Alisha, Jasleen and Yuvi are walking out to Yuvi's jeep, a bunch of drunks start passing disgusting comments on the girls. Jasleen questions the guys but Alisha tells her to ignore them and keep walking towards the jeep. As the comments start getting more disgusting, Yuvi tells the girls to keep walking. He tells them that the guys are intoxicated and that they should just ignore them. Just when they are about to get into the jeep, the guys surround them. What happens next is shocking.

All I have to say is What is Suvreen going to do get Yuvraj justice? Will Suvreen profess her love to Yuvi seeing him in such a state? Will Yuvi finally profess his love to Suvreen? Will RC realize that Suvreen loves Yuvi? Will Suvreen even find out about RC's feelings for her? I'm eagerly awaiting next week's episodes to see what happens. What will Suvreen do next?

I'm glad that the creators of Suvreen Guggal are highlighting such a critical issue. Seems like every day there is some story on the news about a brutal rape or assault of a woman. It seems like such stories are becoming the norm. When will such incidents stop? I personally feel like things like this can stop only if the people are willing to change their mindset. I like that shows like Suvreen Guggal are trying to change the mindset of the youth and their audience.

Here is a snapshot of what happened this week on Suvreen Guggal...

Weekly Update: Suvreen Guggal - Topper of the year, December 24 - 27

So lately, I happened to watch Suvreen Guggal and I just fell in love with it! I love the concept of a young a fresh college-based drama. I also like that it is not all fluff. There is a lot more to the show than just young love, heartbreak and growing up. The show tackles major issues like eve-teasing and ragging all without sounding too preachy. I for one love Suvreen. She is a strong an independent girl who knows what she wants and has no qualms about working hard to achieve her dreams. She is the quintessential topper - good at everything that she does. So since I loved the show so much, I decided why not do a weekly update? As it is, I don't have an D:3 related post on Fridays. It would be fun recapping the week for Suvreen Guggal. So here is the recap of the week...

The week starts out with Yuvraj finally realizing that he should tell Suvreen how he feels about her. So her plans a special proposal for Suvreen along with Lathi and Manu. He recalls all the times he met Suvreen and is surprised that he has fallen for her. Manu and Lathi are glad that Yuvraj has finally decided to act on his feelings. All through the week he acts odd when he is around 'Topper' to the point where even Suvreen starts noticing his weird behavior. It's so cute watching their scenes! I can't wait for the moment when Yuvraj finally confesses his felling. It's funny that he feels insecure around RC. He decides that he needs to be 'hi-fi' to impress Suvreen and hence enlists the help of Alisha. On the other hand, Vivan tries his best to make RC realize that he loves Suvreen but RC keeps resisting the idea since Suvreen is his student. Vivan comes up with a plan to make RC realize that Suvreen means a lot to him and that he does indeed love her. In the end, RC finally admits that he does have feelings for Suvreen and that she is very special to him.

Suvreen's younger sister Jasleen aka Baby comes to visit Suvreen and the family. Suvreen is very happy to see her and promises to take her around in Delhi. Baby on the other hand is just as excited to see Suvreen and Delhi. She is young and fresh-faced. She is innocent and naive. Suvreen takes to college and introduces her to all of her friends. Jasleen makes quite an impression of all the boys of the college! Some boys start to harass her but Yuvraj comes to her rescue and she is instantly impressed by him. I have a feeling this Yuvraj-Suvreen-RC love triangle is going to turn into a love square or parallelogram with the addition of Jasleen!

Meanwhile at college, all the students are working hard to find a social issue for their social awareness campaign. Naro looks uncomfortable and sad. When her friends ask her why she is sad she breaks down and tells them that she still hasn't gotten over Gogoi. Gogoi and Naro were in a relationship. He misused Naro's pictures and harassed her. Suvreen and Yuvraj staged a huge protest at college and Gogoi got what he deserved. When Alisha hears Naro's story she tells the group that they have found their social issue. The group decide to take up eve-teasing and women's safety as their social issue. It will be fun to see what the group does for the campaign.

So without further adieu here is a quick wrap up video of the week...
