I know the title seems a little too strong for the content i am going to put in here, but i am beginning to wonder if all is well with the way the story is going forward...
As an audience the entire memory loss promo totally shook me up, since i felt there was going to be something substantial coming our way.. and the way the entire Khurana Constructions being taken over, Maan distraught, totally frustrated, yet not losing hope, and wanting to spring back .. gave enough fodder to my brain to think they were headed the meaningful way finally .. however, what i have witnessed over the last 12 odd days has really disappointed me... we get to see occasional power packed performances by the leads and the other actors here and there, but its like sand in your fist, you open your hands and there is nothing to hold ..

i was wanting to come back and write how the very inception of the track had intrigued me, and how a man like Maan Singh Khurana would relive that one year of his life, now, in the absence of Geet, though she was actually in front of him .. Pammi was made to be the evil inferiority complexed mother, who wanted to secure her little sons future, in the process jeopardizing another s...the whole idea of docile Mummy turning evil was too much of a shock for me to take at first, but i thought, she may have had it in her all this while .. she just didnt find an outlet, and Maan being away from the scene did give her enough time to lay her plans out and execute them, though not in a smart way !! Fine, fiction it is, i let it pass ... i was expecting to see a Kaykeyi type mother, who was right in her place, insecure for her son, and gradually turning a blind eye to another, as a logical way of doing it, but ofcourse, no one wanted to revisit Ramayan with so many other shows perhaps threading a similar path .. however, i am now beginning to wonder, after last night, why all the scenes right from Maan being kidnapped to, escaping to, Pammi being careless about the whole thing, to Geet landing up for Maan and then signing the papers and asking for Maan in return were wrapped up in a matter of two episodes as though the leads had a plane to catch to Toronto to watch the awards function being advertised on TV ??
Some brilliant dialogues were given to Geet, like "mere Maan ki hisaab toh Babaji bhi nahi laga sakte" and her readily willing to risk her life for him... i felt she was merely saying the lines, cos she had to say them... i didnt for a second feel she meant them...i couldnt connect to it from my soul the way generally do with GHSP ... and then what followed was a ridiculous set of events like Dev taking the bullet for Geet and easing himself off the guilt of having wronged her, for the millionth time... Will someone tell this man, neither his mother nor his wife had planned out Sperm Sharing Gesture as a part of their entire scheme of things? Why does he justify his actions at every given point and blame the women involved? Fine, a dying man never lies .. and this was his perhaps frustrated last attempt ..!! and looks like he very well succeeded...
I was disappointed at the after events, the whole divine intervention, and Babaji calling Maan to his door step and Geet landing there as well, was all well thought in the head, but didnt come across heart touchingly on screen... This is the same Maan and Geet, whose destiny Babaji had written as one, in a Gurudwar like this a while ago, where both of them were clueless as to what was to happen to their life ahead ... yes life has come a full circle in a way, but why is it that this journey doesnt evoke the same enthusiasm as it did a year ago? My heart goes out to Maan cos of Gurmeets rocking performance...I feel even a lucky is not wasted ... But how has dadi ma sprung back to life in a couple of hours after being on sedatives for days together? Why did Geet listen to Dev when he told her he would be okay and just left? Why wasnt it Geet who spotted Maan in the Gurudwaar ?
If the precap aint a dream, then why was there so much ado about the entire ML track? Are things now going to get better? So was all that was promoted until today just a trailer and the story is yet to begin? If that is the case, i was i briefed about it so much in advance? Why did Pammi come and go? why did geet not think before signing the papers not move me the way it should have and why were the most emotional high points on the show dealt with so lightly?
I wonder am i the only one that feels this way, or i have company?
To add to all this there are rumors floating around the place about the show wrapping up ...with so much dissatisfaction in the heart, why would one not to believe them?
