Today I noticed that there is another person to share the Episodic Story responsibility. Saaket Kumar.
May be Kamlesh Kunti Singh said "I can't do it anymore single handedly" 😆

Mannat Maango Dhaaga Baandho - Religious fervour when done properly and Superstitious warnings when not done properly.
Sindhoor (Kumkum) falling down the floor - Same as above.
That is being impressed on viewers as something ominous to happen to Prishna.
Invariably a human mind is trapped in these two states of mind when a mind full of doubt and fear desires to ask for something from God. Personally I am against this kind of seeking blessings/boons from God. Because I wouldn't want myself to show God I am that weakened and hence the doubt and fear when he is testing all my strength. And if at all I had to do as an elder had told me, then in good faith with all calm and quiet, I would finish doing it. Because when standing before God and praying to him no one is higher than him. And even if that is being disturbed like the way Pinto was disturbed the second time (a material phone call), I would not entertain disturbance. A disturbance is all in the mind. I can easily not answer the call as I am in the middle of my pooja.
Would I therefore sympathize with Pinto and Krishna today at the pooja being left incomplete twice ? No. Would I think as ominous ?No. Pinto did not come across as a fervent religious follower of God, or a person who understands what FAITH is about. If this was not Afsar Bitiya a show, I would have been saddened at this person who though mired in doubts and wants to reinforce hope within him, by approaching God's abode, yet lets his mind get strayed by noise and disturbance outside.
However as this is a show on TV, I will only take it as a sentimental content flashed on viewers. Many of those viewers who might be religious at heart, they would not have liked the incomplete rite of dhaaga baandhna. So I would just treat that as the writers ploy to induce dramatic intensity of whether to be hopeful or get frustrated.
Same goes for the precap related Kumkum ka girna...Something to affect Saraswati and her Maangalyam...
EMOTIONS ! EMOTIONS ! EMOTIONS !!!
Best way to deal with your hopelessness is find strength and faith within you and devise strategy.
That's what Pinto did in between. He took promise from Krishna if she will be with him in the fight (hinting that he was engaging a fight with parents). Support gained from Krishna, support lost from his brother Babloo and again collecting his thoughts in the temple and finally reaching home and coming out with a trick to have his mother let go about the ridiculous fasting. The carefully worded consolation was a good trick leaving all to assumptions and yet no commitment given for the time being. So guys, that's our Hope there. God helps those who help themselves. It was Pinto helping himself all the way, starting from Mannat /Dhaaga idea to leaving it unfinished and trying to find solution through his rational mind.
On the other hand, Krishna never was on this mission to seek blessings from God in this manner. When last time for Swati's marriage when Saraswati asks for dhaaga baandhna, Krishna doesn't go. She has this realistic agenda about how to get Swati's marriage fixed. She seeks help from Babloo and when the promise is there, she goes and seeks God's blessings in the temple standing before him in the devoted manner. That's what I think a true and focused prayer.
So I will gladly ignore all this Bargad Ka Ped ka mannat maangna idiocy. It does not look good for a BDO to be circling around trees like that. And equally not good when young men like Pinto start doing it. Hope I am not offending anyone. But seriously guys other than just watching it as entertainment, imagine ourselves in that place. In real life when do we get initiated into these PANTHEISTIC rites. It takes quite a time to make up our mind to go into those kind of things. I am glad that Krishna actually asking yesterday what is this and Pinto asks her not to ask...basically asking her to shut rationality for a while. So this girl/woman who then was taking part in the rite had more faith in her man and she was only concerned for him. So that again goes to add to the strength and hope kitty of Pinto, that without any superstitious bent of mind, Krishna will support him. Bargad blessing or no blessing. 👍🏼

Son - Father silent confrontation was adorable. Equal match. I pity Tuntun though. What a respect he used to command in yestermonths, when Pinto used to stand before him with certain distance. And now Pinto just pulls hims outside with a good hand grip !! Fall of the mighty Tuntun !!!!
++++++++++++++++++++++++
Lastly why is Vidya wanting to go to Tuntun for Rishta maangne ?? Seriously is Vidya out of his mind ? Doesn't seem a prudent thing to do it now 😕 although I respect him, his idea and his sincerity. But all that is ideal and not warranted for practicality's sake.
Yaar why don't all they read Rukmini-Krishna elopement marriage chapter ? Rukmini was more intelligent in planning her elopement with least consequences for her kingdom, father and brother !!
