Anupamaa 08th Nov 2023 Written Update & Daily Discussions Thread

How come MD gets more screen space than the leads ? Anuj n Vanraj were missing today !!

I have not been watching the show even by fast forwarding scenes because it became so pathetic and I felt there's no use venting here because makers don't have a conscience nor do they care for their audience. Been reading written updates and I see the clips of the precaps here and there and it's become so evident that the makers are not fit to even write an ITV show. What are they trying to show? Even if they want to depict usual run of the mill saas bahu drama there should be some consistency or flow. What MD said to Pakhi is absolutely right... Pakhi didn't even want to see Anuj's face a while ago and now she's spending lavishly using his credit card? But MD is brought in as an evil character. Like what she's doing to CA is plain cruel. So that means the Pakhi issue is being brushed aside because MD is bad? And the same way, Anupama's obsession with SH is right just because MD's way of going about things is horrible? Every question she asked Anupama was absolutely right. What sort of reply is "aap kuch bhi bol rahe hain"? At least if these ex in laws were not ABUSIVE and didn't downright TORMENT her then okay...brush it off as a weird attachment to them as if they were parents (The concern for Vanraj or his and Kavya's relationship is still not justified) But they were her literal abusers...

Why couldn't they bring a saas for Anupama who shows her how misplaced her priorities are and sets things in order for once? They should have first showed her bonding with Anuj and building trust and then correcting Anupama's mistakes without any ill intention. But no Anupama is forever mahaan who can do no wrong and everyone around her becomes evil. And this is the makers way of justifying her obsession and love for her ex husband and ex in laws. Each time we think someone is brought in to show her misplaced priorities like (Maya) the character becomes evil and falls at Anupama's feet at the end. How can anyone relate to an FL who is seen as forever right and makes no mistakes (when her actions are so evidently wrong).

And Anupama's only real achievement in life is being a Maa and she has failed so horribly at it. Pakhi is an insufferable insolent brat. Toshu is an ungrateful selfish cheater. And Samar also turned against her for a while in the end and then they killed him off and she's back to dancing and romancing in no time. Do the makers not realise what they are showing? They never show us Anupama going to work or learning anything useful or improving and working on herself. They'll say one dialogue "She's a business woman herself now and earns a lot" and we have to lap it up. Only a fool will believe she can run the business or even work there, given her character traits and how she shows a total lack of willingness to learn or change. At least show her doing SOME work or learning things consistently and finishing what she takes up for us to believe it. But okay if this is not possible at least make her children half decent human beings so she can actually be a good mother...but no. What a failure of an FL in all aspects.

And Anuj...the lesser said the better. His desperation to cling on to his wife and pathetic behaviour around her...Disliked Anupama's character for lacking self respect and being obsessed with her abusers, now Anuj is the exact same. What a downfall...

Did she say she will WFH on the next day? Toh ab tak kya kiya tha? Office toh gayi nahin, Dence Ecedemy me aaj pehli baar gayi, Kapadia Mansion me rehti nahin. Sorry that work from Shah House, should we call it Kapadia Industries' Unit 2 or better still Head office of Kapadia Industries, I suppose?

She wanted/had planned to spend time with Choti Anu, play video games etc. Really? But Malati Devi said "Ab tak toh khana khaakar so gayi hogi", then she was planning on keeping her bebli awake to check a box spending time with Choti? She really has some sense, I tell you.

Jo itne tame se Leela Anupama ko Malati Devi ke gun gaan kar rahi hn, use kya karenge? Bhadkana?

Yeh serial wale poori Tarah pagal ho gaye hai Ab anupama ka shah house mein jaana bematlab lag raha hai

Aur upar se situation bhi force lag raha hai just to make visit anupama in shah anyhow

Anupama agar diwali mañana to baa ke saath kyon mañana hai

Iski trp 0.9 ho jaaye is senseless story ke liye

MD is selfish, what if her son would be a middle class person I don't think she will call him his son she is here business and fame 45 years ago she left him for money only now she is with him for money only

Barkha Outstanding performance by Ashlesha

Too good.

Unfortunately, it's clear that MD is going to shown as Maya 2.0 type of villian. Anupama never, ever cared about CA - whether Maya took her away, Maya died, never visited her once in Mumbai whether Maya was taking care of her or not - now overnight Anupama is looking after ever little detail of CA. 🫡

I will respect Rakhi, Maya, Barkha and Malti much more than Anupama because the makers had to get in criminal - esque angles to make audience dislike them whereas even after so much forced sab sab sab drama, whitewashing, panic attacks, Anupama is very much disliked. Rupali's performance has dipped terribly with her now nearly always speaking in a very angry tone and quite loudly when there is absolutely no dialogue which justifies it. It's either extreme anger or sadness with her crumbling down - there is no other layers to the emotions.

True.. If you have to villainize a rational-speaking character who is just pointing out at lead character's shortcomings, it only means that ur lead is very weakly written. Downgrading someone to elevate another can gain sympathy sometimes but not always. Now they are just forcing the audience to accept ki Anupamma sab sab sab kar sakti hai aur hum hi galat hain jo uspe sawal uthate hai... The audience's questions are taken up by a future villain, to prove that it is the viewers who are the villain.. Weird thinking.. A simple acknowledgment by Anupama that she is wrong to be overly available for Shahs needs, instead of her family and herself is wrong and needs a course correction, could have in fact helped and resonated with the people..... Everyone makes mistakes in life. But here the ego of the writers to show Anupama forever right has started to reflect in her character...

Does Anupama not have a car? She is highly paid at Kapadia Group then why is she running on the streets like a maniac and why does she always fall like this while running? Similar happened during Maya track and then to show her as bechari victim the sad music plays and she starts shedding crocodile tears

So what if MD sent her at her friend’s place or went to her school function? As far as I know grandparents can go too.

Suddenly all Anupama is concerned about is CA? Lol it looks fake and funny for her to care about CA even think about her

Why did she go to Shah house today? Bass chakkar lagane? No one called her, there was no emergency but just to let Baa know she will be celebrating Diwali with them by having Anuj’s Diwala, Mere Anoooj will pay for the expenses

And as expected she says Samar ki khusi ke liye manate hain, duniya to bolti rahegi, hum Tosu Kinjal ke liye karte hain

And there her useless daughter is emptying Anuj’s accounts on expensive makeup skincare shoes and bags. Kitna bhi makeup karle Pakhi will always be ugly inside out because she has her mom’s personality and father’s besharmi in her.

Every word spoken by Barkha today was so so true. Anupama duniya bhar ke bachho ko sudharti hai lekin apne bachho ko nahi - and Pakhi has got a permanent victim card to play now.
I would love to watch Barkha and MD anyday over this useless Maa nautanki of Anupama.

Oh and Baa was prepping Anupama against MD, and Maa didn’t say a word to her Cutu Baa to mind her own business and not meddle into Kapadia House matters!
