The episode was good and Sumeet's acting was superlative as RR's always is. I will give Aasiya the benefit of the doubt here. It is not easy to emote in such a situation. She must be scared stiff.
But a storyline with so much violence and so much demeaning/insulting of a woman's character is nauseating and not palatable for me. Is Santu just a toy that people like Rudr can easily "use" and throw? That too, Rudr's justification that she has not stayed with her husband for ten years and so the attraction is greater? I am not at all for this kind of violent attacks on any woman. Very, very disappointing as far as "creativity" is concerned. Santu is the wounded party here but can i ask her a few questions?
1. Why did Santu not send Hiten to fetch the ring? There is no secrecy in forgetting the ring. She should have just voiced it and then gone to fetch the ring.
2. Why does Santu keep antagonizing this Rudr person?
3. A woman with some sense and sensibility will distinguish immediately between a friendly overture and a "pass". Santu knows exactly what Rudr has been trying to do to her and she knows there are witnesses like Hiten. Why did she not complain to DM/Hiten?
A transgression must be nipped in the bud in the correct way by the right people. When is Santu going to realize that some problems are beyond her! Granted that she did not expect Rudr to go so far!
And are the CVs so bankrupt for ideas to unite a warring couple that they must include something as base as an "attempted rape" to bring Santu-DM relationship out into the open? Does DM need this kind of challenge to express his trust in his wife and his love towards her?
I am not at all happy with the turn of events and the last straw on the camel's back will be if and if DM also says mean things and demands that Santu proves herself. Then it is a sad and nauseating end for Bandini!
Today's episode brings out some pieces of superlative acting by Sumeet and RR. Otherwise not a pleasant episode. No human should be made to go through so much pain!
