I have finally watched the HQ version of tonights Bandini episode 😳....I am glad I braved the storm (my own self) and waited. I wanted to pen down what I felt about Dhramraj ji. Its a damn tough job, but someone ought to do it. So, I will have a creak at it, lets see.
The episode stated with Dharamraj ji talking with someone, I loved the fact that he never looked at the camera, he was always looking at someone else, someone, who is in front of him, but we can't see. I have seen RR deliver monologues before, beautiful and unforgettable ones and like those monologues, this was also done with wholehearted honesty, earnestness and purity. Even though I knew that he was talking at the portrait of his dead wife, he made me feel that he was conversing with someone very real. It was a touching scene, all his feelings for her are intact and it seemed that even though she is not with him anymore, she is still the closest to him (wonder where the rest of his family are?).
Nanaji, Madhav Solanki bring tears to my eyes every time I watch him, he is very natural in his role. I know that he is an actor, but still I can't imagine him as anyone else other then Madhav Solanki. I love his goodness and his softness; he is a very adorable Nanaji. Dharamraj ji's scene with Madhav Solanki was superb. Was Dharamraj ji acting here, playing on the emotions of his loyal and very simple workers? Or, was he genuine in his feelings towards them? I don't know.....from what I have seen in the previous episodes, Dharamraj ji sees the villagers as 'chota jati', so today in the scene with his workers, was everything right from his heart? I believe that he will indeed give them the bonus that he has promised, if the contract successfully completed, but, the humility he showed with Nanaji, I think that was just a bit of strategy on his part to get the job done as smoothly and quickly as possible. I simple loved the way RR subtly portrayed this 'humility' in front of his workers. I have always loved understated acting and I think RR is a master at it, with his gaze, a very slight smile, softer (less commanding) body language and by varying the tone of his deep baritone (a softer voice) he brought himself closer to his workers - the master and the commander stepped down for a moment from his mighty and lofty place. His guruji pegged him correctly; he was only being nice to his workers because of the contract. The guruji, whoever he is, was not a good actor. I felt that he was very wooden.
Dharamraj ji became himself when he caught sleazy Jaggu red handed. Dharamraj ji maybe a tyrant, ruthless, cold, calculating, but he is a fair guy and that is why he is damn desirable and lovable, even with his shades of grey. Santo looked cute today, but, she has miles and miles to go before she can stand up in front of the personality of Dharamraj.
I have never seen RR in a black kurta before and I must say that, he looked utterly ravishing in one. The black kurta along with his jet black eyes and his even blacker mood was phenomenally attractive to behold. He would rather not regard Virat as anyone at all, but, he has got to because of this contract. This fact is cheezing him right off, very aptly portrayed by RR. I loved the end of this scene, where he says that in time he will sort out the sleazy Jaggu, he greeted his teeth and I felt a tinge of pity for Jaggu...poor guy - a sardine took up panga with a Great White....
How will a person so much in love with his dead wife be able to deal with a new wife? I can imagine the hatred he will feel towards Santo. Poor girl doesn't know that she is going to see hell on earth. RR's portrayal of wrath, cold fury, disdain, mock and indifference is a amazing and mesmerizing treat and its surpassed only by his portrayal of love.
