Thanks Misti, you covered it all in one go!

You are right: two circles completed today, but I have a bad taste in my mouth. Well, the fault is my own for expecting the CVs to actually do something meaningful with this track. Instead they chose to rush rush and kill off Chikna. He will kick the bucket tomorrow and the potential for a good track about family relationships, honour, dharma, and sacrifice is gone for good. No explanation about why Psycho Nurse was so evil and hell bent on resorting to murder to make Chikna RP. What connection does she have to PF? I guess that secret will die with Chikna. Hopefully Chunnu Munnu use their remaining brain cells and add the twist that Chikna was never Vaishali's son, rather the nurse's own and the two were out to make some fast cash and thus did all this naatak. I think that's the only way the story can be saved. At this point I don't even want Vaishali's real son to return...better if we find out hre died a long time ago after she gave him away. Or better yet, Chunnu Munnu should make Birju Vaishali's long lost son whom she gave away. Birju is goodness personified and the exact opposite of a Kul Vinashak, so this would drive home the point that Vaishali's actions 28 years ago were superstitious and wrong.
Based on the press and Avi's interview, it seems Chunnu Munnu are going ahead with the Amar track. Dev will come back in a new avatar with a new family. Arre Chunnu Munnu, you have enough cash to throw around to hire actors to play a new family but you allegedly fired Priyanka and now are letting Hiten go? For what? And instead of hiring new artists why don't you properly use the ones you already have who stand around doing nothing! Dadi has permanently taken to her bed and lost her spine, brain, and spunk along with her health. Chachoo has become a joker and Arjun, although good today, has nothing much to do on most days. Ditto for Mrin, Deepika, and Vivek...bechara Vivek does nothing but make lists for all the pujas and naach gaana that goes on in PB. What do you expect to achieve with a new family, Chunnu Munnu? More irritation for the viewers you miraculously have left? And if you really wanted to bring in a new parallel lead and once again do the ghisa pitta love triangle, why did you remove Vishaka in the first place? Do you think viewers will be any happier with a new girl to trouble RaDev then Vishaka, who was also troubling RaDev anyway? Might as well have kept Vish in the picture. Even now Chunnu Munnu, you lost the opportunity to make the track interesting. You could have had Vish be the one to find Dev and platonically nurse him back to health and reunite him with Radhika. This way you could have repaired Vish's character too and viewers might accept her again. You could have shown that she turns over a new leaf and rejects Amma for good and makes up with her parents. Finally you could have shown Amma getting her long overdue punishment for life-long abuse of Radhika and attempted murder of Radhika by burning her alive. Not to mention all the atrocities committed against Radhika at the time of the first marriage. And where is the conversation Shastriji and Devaki are supposed to have about the first marriage truth and it's repurcussions? You could have easily shown that too. Side by side you could have shown Dev getting reinstated as RP and shown a maha episode of another RP puja (since you love pujas and naach gaana episodes so much). After the RP Puja you could have shown RaDev celebrating Suhaag Raat #3. Then when all the excitement of Dev's return dies down, show RaDev together confronting Shantanu and slowly begin his reform too. Eventually you could have paired newly reformed Shantanu and newly reformed Vishaka together, all the while giving Mircha trio something to balk at at scheme over. Tsk tsk...I am so disappointed in you Chunnu Munnu! So many golden opportunities lost! What a shame!



Sandeepa chunnu munnu are after making fast buck and thats why they are playing with the tracks..........as you have said I cannot understand that they have the money to employ more actors why can't they use that money to wmply some good writers, director and editor. That will solve all their problems. But they have to go down the ghisa pita route.........as for Vishaka....she will be back ........actually the production house was wary about Vishaka and the audience but now with all these articles and the audience demand for return of Vishaka..she might come back sooner rather than later as the other "new" girl with a different "look"........I don't believe any of these articles.........thats a method used by the creatives to hoodwink the audience and to use the audience emotions in their tracks and TRP games.

Have not watched the episode yet ... will get to it later tonight but since a lot has been happening thought I would post

Loved reading your review, as usual

Misti ... my expectations from the creatives for their current track was simple ... please keep Rads strong and make her look good. I think the current track was to show significant growth in Rads ... going against society, etc ... without Dev by her side.

Contrary to what most people think, I think they have their story mapped out for the next 6-9 months. However, when certain tracks do not work, they cut it short and extend the ones that do work. The director during the Malaysia HM said that they had their next 300 episodes written out

The original intent must have been to have Santanu around for a month more, Dev out longer and maybe being taken care of Vish somewhere. They may have cut both those tracks out. I am still not ruling out the possibility of Vish coming back (these guys love her too much and for a person in a secondary role, she has dominated the story for a long time.)

My idea on future tracks is very different from what they actually show on CB ... so this whole Santanu dead in a day did not surprise me a whole lot. Would have liked it better if Dev had come back, stronger and with shades of grey to his character bcos of the experience he had gone through and together with Rads fought with S.

Let us see how they bring back Avi ... I am really hoping it is as Dev ... but maybe they will make him Amar who is the actual son of Vaish and S is the impostor 😕 Would not put it past chunnu munnu 😊

Mishti, I liked the serious part of the review. Nothing to disagree (well, almost)...

I liked Raj Logani's part today. He was bang on with his performance. Last thursday he was good too with Chachu and today he exceeded his last good performance. The frustration he portrayed in his emoting and the voice modulation were more than perfect (for me). He was the star of todays episode (for me). It was a important part today and he came out with awesome performance.👏👏👏

With being just present all these days in a scene, I always keep thinking don't they forget "acting" .. and today looking at Raj, I was happy.😊

Misti & Bee,

Agree with your assessment of Arjun's acting. I was thinking that he is pretty good and how come they haven't used him for more than a year. His frustration at the situation was so palpable. He needs to more than a silent spectator in the show and a side kick to Mrin. As you mention constantly, chachoo is good too both as a joker and a grey villianish character (kind of think of him as Loha Singh of Agle Janam).
I expected that Arjun, Mrin and Chachoo along with Vivek would be given prominence once Radhika becomes the official DIL and first wedding truth is out. But, what a waste in last few months. No expectations that the next track would be any better. At least Shantanu's track sounded good initially and in some episodes. This track is making me yawn even before starting. As you mentioned, they may bring back Vishaka and are just fooling the audience. They think that if Amma and vishaka are in the show, it brings good ratings. They forgot that Vishaka and Amma were an integral part of the story last year and were needed. This year after Radhika becoming stronger, they are redundant and need to be in the show so that all the loose ends from last year are tied.
There is still potential for this show to go up if they utilize the existing characters properly. But, looking at the track record since Dec 2009, I would say that the probability of that happening is close to zero. They don't have to spend money on these stunts and expensive actors. They can concentrate on PB and their members and have enough interesting tracks. Maybe if they spent more time editing and making sure of the continuity as well as writers. One example is Dev's photos in their revolving room changes their position almost daily. Last year, Vishaka's photo used to be in Dev's room even though Dev could hardly stand her and now there is no photo of his beloved Radhika in his room (the wedding photo was there for a day as they needed to show it falling on the floor). Is he such a narcissist that he only wants to have his own solo photos in his room? Doesn't go with his character.

Thank you Rajsri. I am also not ruling out the possibility of Vishakas return. I take all these articles that have been floating around with a pinch of salt...most of the time the different versions of the media are used by the creatives to confuse the viewers and to gather sympathy for the characters...basically used as another means to drive up the TRPs. Until and unless thereis some official confirmation on her presence orabsence I will not believe anything that they say.
As for your Amar idea..........that is what has been bothering me and I did mention it in some other thread.........I think Abhilasha's one with my name and circle in the subject..........somehow today I got the feeling that they might make this amar....the real second son of Vaishali........while Shantanu is the fake one........I don't mind this shantanu being fake but no look alike of Dev as the second son.

Bee Raj Logani surprised me today.......I wish the creatives use him and chachoo as actors and not as mannequins.......this father and son combination deserve a strong plot and story. That is why I am finding this interest in getting new characters completely bizzare........why can't they use these characters first before rushing to get more characters.
