Today's epi was like a salad - a bit of everything.
A lot depended on how the epi was executed and barring a few things, they pretty much nailed it. A lot needs to be said for both Rati and Sumit. They made it more watchable.
The Good:
Rishi's frustration and disappointment. Many may think this needs to go into 'The Bad' category. But this was good. His words bespoke his pain. And his pain was a manifestation of his inherent love for her. When he said things like "We've done all we could and its of no use" he was not intending to hurt her. He was convincing himself that he has done all he could and now, because nothing more can be done, he has to let her go. And he lets her go with a promise. To never show her his face. Never to inflict more pain on her in an attempt to keep her close to him.
The Bad:
Don't know which should get listed here first. Should it be the scenes of a family video comprising family moments playing on a RAILWAY STATION?? Could there be a more public place to show off one's personal life??
The videos themselves were of moments that were never really recorded. Some moments were memories...like the confession in the hospital. And the beginning was with Chotu Ishaan's voice that was actually part of a promo! Piece of BAD thinking there.
Or should these points be preceded by a very willing station attendant (don't know what to call the video aunty) who belongs to CC and feels the dire social need to see Hitler Didi back in action? Because India, Delhi, and CC (in that order) need Hitler Didi.
Or should it be the wedding party on the railway platform? Am having trouble deciding whether this is unreal or just plain bad. Putting it here all the same.
The Indifferent:
Kabir belongs here. He walks off leaving his 'begum' standing there without even saying bye and with tears in his eyes. Babli follows him without a single question. Its okay that he deviated from HD tradition and did not become a psychopath. But his exit makes no difference.
The Superb:
The tacky scene of some random luggage hurtling randomly towards Rishi goes in the category of superb. Even more tacky and 'ow' was the flowers falling on both of them. But you know what? For the sheer joy of knowing that normalcy will be restored in this agony track, three cheers for this scene.
Rishi, in typical heroine style, falls and Indira is holding his head. Here, for a minute, I thought he would hurt his medulla oblongata and wake up to say "main kahan hoon"...thus starting the Rishi ka ML track. But thankfully, only some random flowers fell in cosmic approval.
Even more superb: Indu silently slipping into this private scene. 😊 And better than this was Rishi covering her eyes.
And of course, the return of Indira Sharma. In full element! The precap seems like fun. She meets her daughter who is throwing Hitler back at her. No guesses for next week. As far as Fridays go, this one was paisa vasool.
