Irregular pace lacking urgency

Irregular pacing has become a familiar trend in this serial. One or two episodes are damn slow, without taking the story forward in any way, and then almost everything happens in one go.

Yesterday's episode was a major YAWN!

The only plan to reach Roshan was to follow Balraj? Seriously? They have absolutely no back-up plan? It seemed like a great idea that they have a tracker to follow Balraj, But, that is a dead-end. And, absence of a back-up plan made it appear like they were wasting time.

Ditto for containing virus. It is more than three hours since they knew Roshan escaped with virus. But, no plan B which Siddharth, Mallick or Jai could come up with? No plan for 'What if virus infection happens'..no plan to keep doctors or hospitals on stand-by..no NOTHING!

Aditya asked the medical team to continue their research. That is about the only saving grace, so far, which paints our leader in a good light. He is the only one who showed some foresight...

Lack of a sense of urgency and the various plot loop-holes are seriously hurting this serial - which is unfortunate, because I love it so much.

Precap shows Jai and Aditya talking to Roshan. Vedant is trying to reach him, too. But, virus and locations list is with Vasu who has a plan of his own. LOL. Maybe it is a big twist.. but in hindsight it looks like the drama involving Roshan and the drug dealer were a waste of time..

The only thing ATU got without someone telling them about it is the identity of Dhruv and that he knows PM's girl friend. Big deal.

Showing ATU in forever 'reaction' mode instead of thinking or planning ahead is seriously showing our government agency's preparedness to handle a crisis in a damn poor light.

Naina Singhania might be cruel but she had more counter-strategies to save the government than ATU has to save the country.

The only saving grace is the brave soldiers. Hats off to them.

On second thought -- Maybe that is what Season 2 is trying to show.

Bureaucracy sucks with a bunch of clueless and incompetent leaders, who can only react to a crisis.

It is our brave soldiers who save the day for us with their courage and sacrifice - they are the unsung heroes.

Agree Sharda
Just now saw yesterday's epi and it was super slow
ATU didn't had Plan B to reach Roshan like seriously

I liked only hotel part and it was imp to show how guests are reacting so no complains there
Veer is a fab officer and i absolutely liked how he handle the situation

I disliked whole balraj chasing drama...to me it was waste of tym
Maya-Kiran scene too was not necessary, it cud hv been avoided
Dr Bhoumik discussing Devyani's inability to take wise decision was waaste of tym
That cud hv been avoided...dey cud hv simply shown Adi's logic behind sending Devyani to ATU

Emotional moment that i loved:
Gyan speaking to Mallick...he was so so brave while speaking and I salute him, he refused to rest in room to avaoid panic among guest and other side she was trying hard to put up a brave front and behaave normally ⭐️
"jab mission shuru hua tha toh socha nhi tha k virus ke itne kareeb aajaonga" 💔

Next Gyaan-Veer moment:
Veer asked him to speak to his pa for last tym and Gyaan saying "faida nhi shayad unhe yaad hi na raho" 💔
Gyaan refused to give himself easy death :(

Next Jai, Kiran n Veer moment:
Veer was behaving like a agent wid sir sir and he wanted to say something to Jai but...Jai's I love you veer and veer reciprocal...though Jai tried to remain unaffected but his reaction outside hall 🥺

They cud hv reduced thia whole content to mere 30 mins
15 mins were wasted

Absolutely agree.
Today Roshan totally outsmarted ATU. They were just reacting to his actions. And the result - they lost Mallick!!

It was heart wrenching the way Shibani remembered Kabir at the end 😔
There were some absolutely applauding moments though. Her determination, Siddharth's reaction, Sakshi was mind blowing!!

Today Roshan had everything so well planned. He even had control of the CCTV cameras at the godown where he had planned to call Jai and Mallick. I mean such full proof plan is not possible without proper planning!! Roshan didn't look like he is taking last moment decisions unlike ATU. And he has escaped from the jail just a few hours back!! When he could plan everything so well with help of Haroon while being in Jail, why couldn't ATU do that if they were secretary working on the mission from 6 months?


I hope in the coming episodes they take care of such loopholes.

Exactly my point..they are showing ATU as damn incompetent..no plan..let alone back-up plan..this is supposed to be a thriller..but now it is getting more and more unrealistic to accept the major gaps in story..
