HolaReduxians 🤗🤗🤗
The epi received mixed reactions but I personally liked it for the feel good factor. 😊 I ignored the plotting and scheming and focused on Arhi's happiness (as advised by Anu ) and the families efforts to make them happy but there are a few things which I didn't like.
Payash sangeet
During Payash sangeet, Arnav and Khushi's romance was blooming and they were flirting with each other all that time. He was the groom's brother and she was the bride's sister. Khushi was involved in organizing the whole ceremony and arranging such events is her forte. It was larkiwale vs larkewale sangeet ceremony, Khushi participated and was the star performer of the evening. They had a lot of time to organize the event and it was well choreographed, well rehearsed.😳
Arhi sangeet
Arnav and Khushi is a couple who are very much in love, have confessed their feelings and know how strongly they feel for other. The dynamics have changed and this time, they are not the bride and groom's siblings. This is their sangeet ceremony organized for them by their loved ones. They are amused to watch their loved ones enacting there love story. This is a gift for them by their families and they have tried to make it special for them. It doesn't really matter if the songs are silly parodies, the dance isn't well choreographed or some people can't even dance. It was done out of love.😳
If Payash sangeet was card a carefully selected and with a lot of love from a shop, for a loved one; then Arhi sangeet is a handmade card which may not have the polished look, but is made with the same amount of love. That's how I perceived it and that's why I liked it.
Anyway, sangeet is not over. It was day 1. Payash sangeet started off slow as well but it picked up. Maybe Arhi sangeet will be full of surprises too.😃
I always love it when people are dressed up for functions and look good so it was double fun for me. Arnav was wearing bandhgala once again. I like them and Barun carries them really well but maybe it could have been in a different color. 😳
Nevertheless, Barun looked very handsome but a bit tired.
I loved Sanaya's outfit, beautiful colors, but not the hairstyle and the jewelries. Deepali, Akshay, Karan, Abhaas all looked good. 😊
The sangeet had a dj vu feel to it. I couldn't stop laughing seeing the old-Shyam back whose plan always flops. 😆 Last time it was bichoo and this time is it the picture.But this time Dadi is here too with a more sinister plan.
Dadi is all about revenge and the way she sat next to Garima and later held her hand and made her sit next to her, it can only mean one thing. Keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer.
Things that didn't work for me
Anjali - It's understandable that she is happy for her brother but deep down there should some amount of grief for the baby she longed for but eventually lost. She has completely forgotten that she was pregnant. Daljeet's expressions were over the top and the smile and body language looked too forced and unnatural. 👎🏼
Can you please hire some better looking and better dressed people as guests? 😳
Mixed feelings.
Missed kisswiya. 😕
Points to be noted.
It was obvious that the performances and Arhi reaction to it were shot separately. At times Barun looked completely lost and Sanaya looked overenthusiastic. You could tell that their reactions were off because they had no idea what they were watching. 😳
The lighting was not good.👎🏼 This is one thing I have noticed when I compared the recent episodes with the early IPK episode that the lighting used to be much better. But now it looks a bit dark at times.
During the Arhi scenes today, there wasn't enough light over Sarun, particularly on their faces. Barun looked completely dull in the brown outfit because of the lighting.
Credits
Karan Goddwani - NK was the star today. Loved Karan's enactment of ASR and his entire performance. 👏 He looked dashing in the kurta and even better in the suit. 😃
Utkarsha Naik - Brilliant performance. Loved your dancing. 👏
Abha Parmer and Jayshree T - Loved you both. 😃
Akshay Dogra - Akash was in his element today as the teasing brother. This is the Akash that I like and Akshay does really well in such scenes. 👍🏼 I rofld when he sitting and holding the placard over his face. 😃
Deepali Pansare - I loved Payal today because although she is introverted, she took the centre stage and performed for sister and brother in law. 😃 I am glad Deepali got the chance to do something. She looked beautiful in blue. 😊
Deepali is not a good dancer,😳 neither is Akshay but today I came to the conclusion that Akshay is the better dancer. 😉😆
Swati Chitnis - The faint smile on her face and the composed look. Sinister. Great job.
Barun Sobti and Sanaya Irani - I love you both but today was not your day. 😆But both of you looked gorgeous and the dulha-dulhaan. 😳
Welcome back LM. 😊
I really hope the trp goes up this week. 😳
cheers,
Fari.
