Sushpective: Game On! - Page 4

Nice post and I agree with you in many ways sush that exchange of mugs went cold for me .zara is not a typical bi...h sister like other soaps and that's surpr but a good one .

Nice post, Sush. Great collages as always, Shweta.

Don't want to be a negative Nancy here, and was in two minds on posting my take on the episode. Am not amused the way Arzoo's character is being played out here. Anyway, its a desi show, and a 4 Lions one at that.

The direction has definitely improved, but I still find the writing weak. If I am not wrong, Gorky is writing the show. Frankly, expect the quality of writing on his Forum 32 posts on the screen. Maybe they should get GH in too. Eccentricities aside, he is good writer.

I thought I was the only one who found no purpose to the tea/coffee scene. Its kind of disappointing... the scenes seem incomplete. The first pool scene, The dargah scene, and now this.

Bhavi, ditto on the coffee. As someone who gets a migraine by merely a hint of its odor, the smell from hot coffee practically fills the room.

All aside, the show still holds my interest, in spite of the warts and all (pun intended). 😳

aarzoo not being able to handle the bitterness...is it symbolic?

coz sahir is nothing but bitter in life

cut to sahir

him pleasantly surprised at the change in taste...which means...his acceptance of aarzoo in life will be more gradual and faster than aarzoo accepting him🤔

just a thought on ur thought😆

Hi ChickS! Director is a big thing for me...very important in my view...although don't know how desi shows work...but a good director can make you feel the emotions even if they are not explicitly expressed...May be it is just me...

Great observation on Sahir sipping happily and Arzoo spitting it out...symbolism much?

Hi Bohemian!

Couldn't help responding to your comment.😳

Gorky does not write in F32. The posts are written on his photographs usually...the writer tries to tell us what she/ he feels he has captured.

Agree with U totally- something is still missing..I think it is the pace.

Didn't find the scenes mentioned purposeless- incomplete to an extent- I agree.

Pool scene- HIghlighted Sahir getting enchanted...especially the later reflection- how could someone be so childlike in showing fear?

Dargah- Sahil wandering in aimlessly- He is there only because a prophecy has been made-he has been summoned- and it was made to signify the greater need he has, of a humsafar like Arzoo- did not expect them to meet each other there.😳

Mug exchange- I think the point is to project that there is no love story as of yet... He is Sahir Sir to her..and she is an intern he is trying to be fair to...an eye lock would be embarrassing..What I would have loved is them going back to their worlds...perhaps the writer felt there was no need to state the obvious!

Hey chicksoup 😊 ... please do share your name.

Oops. My bad. 😳 Since most posts were written in first person, mistook them for Gorky's posts. Thanks for clearing this out.

The pool scene I was referring to is the first one... where she handed him the towel, and scooted off. He had no idea it was her. Some kind of an interaction would have been good. Agree with you on the second pool scene... that definitely had a purpose and was well played out.

I personally found the dargah scene incomplete for the fact that why did they need to be there at the same time. Individually there was a purpose. But the close misses... 😕 I think there was supposed to be more... since the latest promo has Sahir reminiscing of meeting her there.

Interesting view on the mug exchange. Personally, I did go 'and...'. The mugs got exchanged. They both took a sip. Bas. There needed to be something more... at least something beyond a realization of the mugs getting exchanged. Was this a way to close the previous loop. 😕

Hi Ri/ Chick, Nice discussion!

Gorky doesn't write the articles on F32? Hmmm I too thought he did and liked the character sketch with the pictures...who writes them?

Ri...I agree about the scenes appearing incomplete ...I think you mean the first pool scene not the second one...the second one was fine...I get it that they are trying to show connection by destiny, that is the purpose...but something seems to be missing...that makes them feel incomplete...it is the "so what..." question ...that does not get answered,...quite finished...like someone is telling you a story...and they finish the chapter, without the reader getting the conclusion...

May be they could have done something like...Sahir decides to have the tea...and Arzoo pours it in the drain...or may be both pour it in the drain...something more than what they did...

Hi Sush 😊

@blue bold: That's what I would like to know too.

Ditto on the continuation of the tea-coffee scene. I really like your idea. Would have made complete sense... and an insight to where each one stands w.r.t. the other.
