Today's Take - Double Pronged Attack

It seems the CV's finally heard all our complaints about not giving either Sonali and Thakkar or Mayuri a proper back story ... so they gave Rupali a complete history and made her a psychopath of sorts 😛 So she's been planning this since college ... including giving up her own dreams and joining an organization where she could be in a position to win friends and influence a lot of people ... only Manav falling in love with Chhanchhan and getting married so quickly before she could set herself up in position was not part of her plan.

Again the cv's tried to keep it as real as possible ... Rupali is not the owner or the boss's daughter, but she has worked to get herself into the position she is in, which is why it took her time and she didn't attack Manav the moment they were out of college.

Double pronged attack ... first the broker plant, to defame the entire family ... then the direct attack on Manav personally ... in between, another Manav-Rupali scene where she tells him her intentions, and spells out what he needs to do ... so Manav caught in a bind ...

I really like the CC-Kaumudi bonding - a very sweet relationship. And love the way CC senses that all is not right with Manav and Rupali, and first tries to clear her doubts by finding out the facts of Manav-Rupali relationship if they had any ...

Good juxtaposition of the cc-Kaumudi scene with that fact finding, and the solo Rupali scene where she details how she was crazy about Manav and planning to get him back in her life for so long ... the screenplay was good there and the story loops were all closed off quite neatly ...

RanSan are all sorted out now ... wish people would reform that quickly in real life too! Guess that would have taken much longer if the show had gone on ... 😕

Loved the ChhanMan scene ... as always, this couple is each others' strength and support ... and they TALK to each other!!! No wonder none of the ChhanMan MU tracks have ever managed to last for too long 😛

The last scene was good again ... including the hospital precap ... will Manav recognise the broker and realise this is Rupali's trap ... she set him up well and good by the broker claiming the Borisagars cheated him, Manav's altercation at the police station, and then his 'death' ... so Manav will be held guilty of murdering the guy because of the fraud rice claim ... Manav is really stuck here ...

Where were these CV's for so long? 😲 Now when the show is winding up, the scenes are suddenly more taut and the story less jerky and flowing better than it has been for the last so many months! 😲 Including the clever use of BD's ... Anuj away on his movie promotion, yet his BD is not very noticeable, I only noticed in the police station scene ... and Babuji was missing in the family at the dining table.

Two more weeks for this whole drama to be wrapped up. Will Nerd Vineet have any role to play at all? What will Chhanchhan do? How will she get Manav out of this mess?

rtodays episode was bang on..loved the way cc confided to kaumsthy..

Manav toldd cc everythng tht happ...

Excellent episode.

I enjoyed today's episode. Another ChanMan filled one and I love seeing this couple talking, taking time out for each other and being an emotional support. Manav went truant for few episodes but with Rupali' s intention out in open, sense seems to be knocked back in. I enjoyed all their scenes and both actors do the whole "married and comfortable with each other" scenes so well.

I see the episodes nowdays more in terms of scenes rather than a story itself as know its ending in 2 weeks .

Updated main post 😛

I absolutely loved the episode today. All the ChanMan scenes were so good, I was getting tired with all those cheesy scenes. Finally saw some meaningful scenes today!

I like the way they are keeping things as real as possible ... the CC-Kaumudi bonding and how CC confides in Kaumudi ... the good thing in this show is that nothing is kept secret from the rest of the family for the 'greater good' or to 'spare something the pain which they won't be able to bear' ... or other such nonsense, which happens in most shows.

Love the Manav-CC bonding ... as you say, San and Anuj are really comfy in such scenes, they have the newly married, in love and best friends too couple down pat ...

Next week or so will be tense for sure ... wish the cvs had given this level of intensity earlier.

Excellent episode.

'anjana' sisters have learnt their lesson.

This Rupali thing is bad news..🤢 She is dealing a Two front attack to get MAnav to succumb to her advances...defaming his family name & a police case of rash driving.

As expected after some resistance, Manav does confide in CC about Rupali's intentions. Loved the ChanMan scenes as always.

I am so loving the bonding & scenes between CC & Kaumudi. CC speaks her heart to Kaumudi, her fears & doubts about Rupali's intentions.

Today had all the elements & intensity that a show needs to get god ratings...but alas the makers took too long & were rather inconsistent in the way they executed the tracks.

I think the whole family will join hands in fighting Rupali. That will bring a nice closure to the show, highlighting family unity & strength in working together towards a common good.

Next week...how will CC-Manav get out of the police case...the guy has been declared dead.

Rupali is very clever ... she set up the broker issue, Manav manhandled the broker in the police station, and now the accident, so he can be accused to causing the accident purposely out of enmity. He is in a big soup. Liked Anuj's acting in the precap ... he was good.

Loved the Chhanchhan Kumudi scene ... Chhanchhan has an intuition that something is wrong ... instead of jumping to conclusions, she first tries to find out all the details ... and she isn't convinced ...
Loved the ChhanMan scene too ... am really going to miss this jodi 😭

Yes, I think the final track will show the bonding of the entire family and them coming together to deal with Rupali ... that will be a good way to end the show. Can they bring in the dogs too in the end? Please ? 😳

Diya I am so gonna miss your updates when ChanChan ends! You did a superb job and you were so consistent. Thank you for each and every one of these updates.
