Hello ladies. 🤗 Hope you are doing good.
I updated my post on Page 1.
Here's my take for all those devils who are online now.
@Jyo - Awesome post as always. Loved it.
@doodle - Wonderful analysis dear. I liked the way you addressed the issues raised after the episode aired.
@all - Great work everybody!! Rock on.
My two cents:
The beginning of the episode was great. Geet-Adi duo rocks!! They have a certain comic chemistry where in they complement each other perfectly. The main aim of the scene was good - to get the girls going. But what I did not like was what Geet was talking about Maan. Between them, whatever she says is ok, but not to the whole world. Let us not forget that he has a career. Those dialogues given to Geet were very childish.
Maan's entry and his reactions to Geet's accusations were good. Most of us had predicted that he would say that Geet is the only person who could find a girl for him. I loved the way you kept his character intact. Kudos for that. MSK might be in love, but he will not take accusations hurled at him lightly. I liked the way he came back at Geet with all that passion and anger. The only difference between Maan earlier and Maan now is along with the anger, there's passion in him.
I guess the reason why Maan wants a contract engagement is two-fold. One is to make sure Dadi doesn't get upset with his decision not to get married and secondly to gauge Geet's reaction to it. But I did not understand the reason for this contract engagement and marriage stuff. Maybe we will have to wait for a few more days to know the exact reason behind Maan's idea. Geet refusing to go along with Maan because she doesn't like it is great and here Geet's character is kept intact.
Maan wants Geet to confess what he sees in her eyes. Maan has an inclination about Geet's feelings. I would not call this Maan's ego. Once bitten, twice shy - guess this applies to Maan. He is not a person who would wear his heart on his sleeve only to be trampled upon. Its only in the last few days has he seen a difference in Geet's behavior towards him. He wants to confirm what his heart sees. Maan wants everything perfect and the only thing that maybe scares him is rejection. So I guess his way of thinking is justified. Wonder how far he would go to get Geet to confess her feelings. I am also thinking that this is the way Maan would get to know the truth from Geet - for now she will be compelled to reveal her past to him. We all know how persuasive Maan can be. A nice foundation for Maan getting to know the truth about her past than her just blurting it out of the blue.
The Parineeta theory seems to be in full force now. Dadi trying to adorn Geet with the jewels was kind of random. It would have been nice if there was a nice scene leading to it. Guess thats what we call cinematic liberties. Drashti looked very beautiful in that scene. And Maan's reaction was worth watching. His eyes were full of adoration for that vision in front of his eyes. As Jyo and Doodle mentioned, this was the Roka ceremony for Maaneet wedding - for Geet being his Parineeta.
Dev - NT. I do not want to talk about these two. They are a match made perfect for each other. I sometimes fail to understand these two.
The Dev-Geet misses are becoming a bit too much. I know we will have a confrontation soon. It would be good if we have a bang on confrontation instead of a number of such near-miss incidents.
A few things to ponder maybe?
- The background music of Mahi is becoming very repetitive and a bit loud too. Can we please have some subtle instrumental music in the background? We have actors who portray their feelings so beautifully. Why spoil it with loud noise?
- Regarding the staring sessions, can we please have an internal dialogues between the characters so that we can know what is going on in their minds at that particular moment? I agree silence is golden, but sometimes it helps to know what others are thinking.
Given that Gurmeet and Nissar are not well, this was a good episode. But CVs you have gotten us used to perfection and sometimes when that perfection is not achieved, it disappoints us.
Lastly Get well soon Mr. Director. We need you back.
