Today's Take - The Penny Drops - Page 3

Sunara,

Diya while working on the final draft of my paper, I peeped into the forum every 30 minutes looking for your update girl. If you hadn't given it by now, I would come down to your place!

Loving the speed of the show. So glad that nothing is ever dragged on for too long in this show, which is why it makes it interesting to watch!

This Sonali creature is really creeping me out- no engagement, not even a meeting, why would you get his name tattooed? This show's UsP is that Chhanhhan and Manav actually talk - about problems, misunderstandings, whatever is happening around them. That's an ideal relationship, something everyone wants, but very few people have. So Uma can plot away till the cows come home- the only way she can throw out Manav's darling wife is over his dead body. God forbid. I thought Manav was so cute, when he was troubling Manthan during yoga, esp when he called out to Dadaji when Manthan was taking a little bit of time out. It was nice to see Rushali- I really miss the Sarabhais.

another awesome take .. everytime before watching the episode I love to read your take .. superb ..

Fab episode, loving Dadaji's character. yoga class was hilarious, Manthan and Anju very funny! All CC Team 👏

While the pace of the show makes it even more watchable it is a bit worrisome...why the rush??

The yoga scene was funny but a little too long and I have a feeling that the milk was spiked but cvs changed the track at the last minute. UB just thinking that CC wouldn't wake up doesn't make sense she would have had to ensure that she didn't wake up in time...I'm glad though that they didn't go through with the spiked milk scenario, it would have been so cliched whereas the yoga scenario added a fun element.The brothers were obviously not happy about what they had to do but were supportive enough to continue even when they found out why they were doing it. The brothers wouldn't have been punished for the late breakfast but it was almost like they were all taking care of one of their own whether it was for Manav or for CC is debatable. Apart from UB the family is overall decent.

I'm loving the cute little romantic scenes the cvs are slipping in amongst everything else...again it's so realistic because all newlyweds try to find a few moments of togetherness. Yup Dia, Manav sure as hell didn't have a tattoo in mind when he said his wife should know how to thank him😳😆.

So Sonali is obviously traditional in the sense that she's agreed to marry a man that she's never met but at the same time isn't quite the traditional bahu that UB is looking for...she thinks it's cool and fashionable to have her fiancee's name tattooed on her wrist something that would not be approved of by UB. I don't see her as someone who would pursue Manav once she knew he was married regardless of UB's games.

The Queen of Expressions once again proved ownership of the title as that penny slowly fell into place. Her initial shock on hearing the name Manav Borisagar and then the added disbelief as Sonali added each point making it hard to pass everything off as a coincidence. Her voice modulation when she realized that UB was playing games was awesome. The one thing though was that even though she was teary eyed CC had a resolve in her face that let us know she wasn't about to give up. Kudos to Sanaya Irani for an awesome performance. Talking about awesome performances thank you Anujs Sachdeva for taking on the role of Manav Borisagar and thank you creatives for recreating flashbacks of important scenes so that we can all forget that the blinking days ever happened. In case there are some creatives roaming around here then please please redo the scene where Manav has the monologue in UB's bedroom and the scene where he leaves home...after that all will be forgiven for the torture we endured (well for me at least!).

Yet to watch epi. Was waiting for your take on it. Are they rushing it to wrap up the show? ;)

Hi and welcome to the CC forum!!!

Don't think they will wrap it up in such a hurry ... the speed is probably to increase the drama quotient for TRPs ... Sony doesn't wrap shows without sufficient notice.

nice episode

yoga scene was a bit stretched,

manav is a very good husband always there for chhanchhan

i always wonder that how people cook and eat such variety of hand made food in the breakfast, kudos to them

chhanchhan made all food but umben had to spoil it, lady you are wasting the food in the process, think about it

Sanaya was looking lovely in the second outfit with toned down makeup

soanli seems to be obsessed with manav , no official engagement but going for the tatoo

chhanchhan is clever , put the dots together came with the right conclusion about umben but went wrong in interpreting about your husband wish😆

AS we are used to the dramatic effects ,stretching , the loud music surrounding such scenes in other serials so chhanchhan may be first paced as compared to them

Yoga scene was a bit long, but it was funny ... Manthan is hilarious, and it was nice to see the brothers loosening up in their interactions. Earlier they have always been very stiff and formal with each other and barely interact ... now because Manav is involving them in his Rescue Chhanchhan mission, their interactions have become much more normal and relaxed. Plus the entire family is scared of Dadaji's punishment and is ready to help out ... the brothers even at their own cost ...

I was afraid Ranjana would sabotage the breakfast, but it's a relief to know she is not so spiteful ... or rather, she has a very healthy fear of Dadaji's anger, which is far bigger than her envy of Chhanchhan!

Manav is growing to be a very good husband ... he is a sweetheart!

Sonali wanting a tattoo and that leading to the chance meeting of CC and Sonali was very contrived ... they could have made it a walk in the park. If Sonali is traditional enough to fit Umaben's requirements, then she would not be modern enough to want a tattoo. Unless Umaben is willing to overlook tradition for the dowry she will bring, of course!!! In which case Sonali should be modern enough to want to meet Manav before she says yes to him. I hope they show that Thakkarbhai has told Sonali Manav is out of town for a month and they will get formally engaged only once he returns or something like that ... that could at least explain Sonali's willingness to agree without meeting him ... but wouldn't she want to at least see his photo before saying yes? So that part is not well thought out. That's why I felt they are rushing this part ... let's see how it goes.
