My dear Arya,
It is very nice of you to say that you miss my long and ultra-detailed posts, and it says a lot about you as well. Not many of the very young have the patience and the love of analytical reasoning to appreciate my kind of stuff, so I am all the more pleased to add you to the admittedly modest list of my regulars!😉
I agree with all the supplementary points you have made here; you have obviously thought a lot about the whole affair. I found @red part especially apt. That was why I wrote that Anjali was a s amoral as Bala, though for different reasons. Tina's point about girls like Anjali being so unnecessarily cruel to boys they have contempt for, and thus to some extent inviting the trouble that follows, is also valid. You might like to see DuttaSweetheart's points above and my response, as you are interested so much in detail.
Lastly, my dear, the fake banknotes plates case was a pure noir affair, and the villainness was like a black widow spider which eats its mate. No female cop needed to tackle her; with a bit of luck, she would have tackled both Rathore and Arjun successfully! She is one the things that made me like that episode so much; she is the archetype of the kind of femme fatale that was a speciality of the hard core mystery writers like Raymond Chandler and James Hadley Chase. The episode suited her to a T. As soon as my wrist is better, I will post my long delayed analysis of that one., and I will let you know as usual.
