So I fast forwarded a LOT.
Episode opens with Sai anxiously waiting for Virat. Her eyes are searching desperately for him. She even sends a text but deletes it after sending. So technically virat should see it atleast as deleted message notification. But virat doesn't. Virat himself starts an apology text to Sai....BUT doesn't send it because he is interrupted. Fantastic. The only logical thing he started to do- but didn't do! 🙈🙄
Meanwhile theres a lot of chitter chatter amongst CN peeps. They are gossipping in auditorium like its ZA. If they didn't think this function was important why bother to come. Only devi, mansi, Sam, mohit, NiNi could've gone. I skipped most of the chit chat because its boring n silly.
And in hospital, doctor tells Virat that mother n baby are both ok....so no change in that part of KD copy paste.
Aa far as function goes, i think its silly that pulkit is acting as if the function is ONLY for Sai. That never happens. Would've made sense if he said its to honor all our students who performed well.
And what is this random dancing skit about Sairat journey happening in felicitation function?! Makes no sense.
Are we supposed to assume that the real dance has nothing to do with Sais hallucination and that the lyrics, skit happening in her head is just what shes thinking. Because why is a random love story being enacted in college function that too, not in an annual day but in a felicitation/award ceremony. Skit karna hi tha toh it should be about a person achieving their dreams with hardwork.
As far as the dance goes,
Pros-
1. Sairat centric.
2. No expression of pp or others in between which is amazing.
3. Very few sweet moments in terms of steps/eye locks.
Cons
1. Too long and repetitive dance drama with no real "happy ending" perse. Vague ending. Both look bored in the dance
2. poor editing, direction and poor coordination.
3. Out of place in overall scheme of things.
4. Ayesha unfortunately looked a teeny bit off- not throughout the dance but in a few bits/pieces- i don't think it's the choreography itself but the repetitive, long-ish nature- she looked a little conscious in some bits looking like she is trying to remember the steps and not fully free flowing in some bits.
Utterly filler and pointless episode in the grand scheme of things.
