awesome post Diya. Yoga scene was really funny, liked the whole Borisagar family for the first time.
used to see one scene with various angles for at least 15 mints in hindi serials so compare to this CC is very fast, in one epi they covered CC- Sonali meeting and CC came to knw about ub's drama. they showed 2 weeks elements of other show in one epi

I enjoyed the yoga scene ... really liked the way the brothers grumbled but went along with Manav to give Chhanchhan enough time to re-make breakfast. Even Jigu helped!!! They're all scared of Dadaji's punishments!

Yep, the speed is really fast ... other shows I watch, I can safely skip 2-3 episodes a week and not miss a thing! In Chhanchhan, this week has been superfast! And every day the precap leaves me waiting for the next day!

not at all fast or fast ..i dont know anyway its not dragging a small situation like other shows to more than 6 or 7 months...i am happy that cc is atleast different from all the others😃

It's not dragging at all now ... we were waiting for Chhanchhan to wise up to UB's antics, and she has ... it did take her almost a month in real time, which is good... not too fast at all!

Yep, the pace makes you want to tune in the next day for sure ... it's picked up very well.

Lovely epi , r they going fast?

No id but the epi was fast paced

Actually the episode was well paced out ... its the precap where they're already on to the next step which makes one feel they're going fast. Chhanchhan's realisation about Umaben was well done ... they showed all the relevant flashbacks, including the new one 😛 ...

I love chanchan so much at least chanchan is smarter than all the so called naive educated modern bahus . She doesn't hide anything fom her husband a d does things of her own and get caught in her own traps like other so called bahus . Pls dont end this even though it moving faster but still is better than any other shows .

Am loving Chhanchhan's character here ... she is smart and a thinking girl of today. One of the five vows the friends took was to make their husband their best friend, and she is living up to that ... and how well that works out! Also because Manav is not a blind Maa ka laadla and actually listens to his wife also. But let's see what happens next ... Anuj mentioned that Manav will be stuck between mom and wife ...

I don't want this show to end for a long time!!! Am loving it!

The episode was fast paced and good. So, much happened in twenty minutes. The entire yoga session was hilarious. The interactions between the brothers was comic. The icing on the cake of course was UB getting trapped to do yoga 😆

The tattoo parlor scene was engineered for Chhanchhan and Sonali to meet. So, Sonali has not seen a photo of Manav, she does not recognize him in the park?!! She blindly follows what her father says? Best to go with the flow... Logic and daily soap rarely the two go together, until the creatives cover it up somehow in the coming episodes.

If we gloss over this... the show is at an interesting point and looking forward to see what ChanMan will do one's UB's mask is off. Interesting times ahead.

P.S. Thank you to creatives for reworking the flashback 👏

Yoga scene was hilarious, and like you said, icing on cake was Umaben being forced to do yoga ... otherwise I'm sure she would have tried some last minute sabotage again!

Tattoo scene was very contrived ... too many loopholes in Sonali's character. Is she traditional or modern? She said yes without even seeing a picture of Manav? Let's see if the cv's plug some of the holes ... otherwise just go with the flow ... she might not be a very long term character if CC-Manav are on to this plan of Umaben's so quickly!

I almost jumped when I saw the flashback ... well done, CV's!!! Another bad memory wiped out ... what a difference good acting makes to the same scene! Poor Sanaya was struggling to hold the show together with blinking boy!

DDji is fast turning into one of my favorite characters in this show right now...despite all his weird ways. But grandparents are just too adorable esp when they come with all these idiosyncrasies...he is turning out to be one of them. Ok so why so much praise? UB baby UB😈. I hope the yoga sessions or Pranayams will be made mandatory for her from now on. So for that, DDshould get some points too. Don't ask where and how they fit except understand that you need scores to understand who is winning the game, Nevermind how the scores are calculated, as long as CC is winning..😆🤣 DejaVu?

So the fresh scores are UB goes up to -2 from -8

CC 8, up by two points.

DDji 2 I'm not sure how this fits into the scheme of things yet🤣

The best part of the epi was that regression into the past sans the blinkfest! Sigh what a pleasant surprise :D

I feel like CC suddenly figuring out things can only mean that the haldi milk was indeed useful, in ways UB had not imagined!

Ok that aside, what's with the pace of this show?? It's speeding!!

ps. I regret to inform you all that since the credibility of these scores have been questioned, this is the last of the score you will know of. ...and this lets admit, is kinda turning lil crazy!😆

pps. plz follow back up in a months time, when I will possibly return but with same scoring system😎

Heyyy ... no stopping the scoring ... who cares how it's done ... as long as CC wins!!! We have a one point agenda here! 😆

DDji gets bonus points 😆 He is a great character... crotchety and grumpy and hilarious at the same time ... bonus points for trapping Umaben, of course, and if he carries on this way, his scores will jump!

Nope. I think they are going at just the right pace. To get where they need to. The gloves are finally coming off!! Cannot wait for the confrontation. Of course, it will be done in an intelligent 'modern' way, eh? "Dimmag" se! It will be fun to see how the dynamics in this household change, since now both Chhan Chhan and Manav know the true colors of the Great Dragon Lady and mommy dearest!!

Oooh! I am just loving Chhan Chhan. Especially, because Manav is 110% with Chhan Chhan. Like a true hubby should be.

Still don't understand UB mindset. Does she really think Manav would leave Chhan Chhan? She must have planned a really big exposee for this to happen!

This episode surprised me, because the usual Indian way would be for the wife to hide things from the hubby and suffer in silence. Way to go CVs for thinking outside the box!!👏

Cannot wait for the next episode!!

I wonder if they will confront her at all? I cannot second guess the cv's here ... they are surprising me at every step especially the last few days! I guess we were all getting impatient with Chhanchhan's blindness to her MIL's true nature ... it was time for her to wake up and smell the coffee!

The best part of this show is the communication and trust between husband and wife ... I am loving that! I hope Manav doesn't do a turnaround ... but the way the cv's are shaping him, doubt that will happen.

UB is just trying to make things as difficult for Chhanchhan as possible, and discredit her in front of Manav and Dadaji, the two decision makers, in the hope that one of them will throw Chhanchhan out ... she knows SHE cannot be the one to do that, or Manav will walk out with Chhanchhan!

well the episodes r very fast paced!! not that I am complaining.. ts refreshing.. but i wouldn't have minded if they had dragged it to about 2-3 episodes either..

anyway fab post di as always!

hehe short n sweet.. CC thought about another way to say thank u cz at least this hubby n wife gets regular action every night thus she wanted to do something differnt (considering locking the door behind them during day time in that house doesn't seem possible! :p ) thus she cannot reward him with anything special that he anyway doesn't already get ☺️.. as the most special is a regular thing for them! 😛

Yoga session was a laugh.. I liked what UB ended up getting lol..
anyway Manav is so much one track minded when he wants to help his pyari wife! haha much to specially manthan's consternation! :p
i love the interactions b/w the bros now.. its more natural now..not rigid as it used to be.. lol.. small squabbles n stuff in grown men is kinda cute lol..cz siblings r like that.. no matter how old u r..u still can be that 5 year old when wth them.. :D

aww adorable scene of ChanMan...

n oooh waiting to know what happens when Manav gets confirmation too..

LOL ... you have a point about Chhanchhan's way of thanks 🤣 ... not that Manav would object 😉

Yoga session ... I loved Umaben getting trapped to do yoga ... 😆 the brothers' interactions are slowly loosening up and becoming much more natural ... Manav is so desperate to keep Chhanchhan out of trouble that he doesn't care who he involves ... Dadaji is a terror for all of them ... as a result all the brothers are bonding together!

Can't wait for the episode tonight ... I am emailing Sony everyday to make this show five days a week ... the three day weekend is getting more and more torturous as the show picks up!
