...... from my side, despite all of my contained diatribe from yesterday👍🏼👏
Good morning/ evening girls !!! I hope all of you are having a very, merry Christmas and Holidays 😃🥳I watched late last night after a long day at work and Rohit's toast/memoir or whatever we want to call it cooled my head down instantly. Kudos to the writer👍🏼
Contrary to me jumping the gun with my prediction that he is going to go into a veiled attack on Sona and take the moral high ground, I found his rendition to be sincere, introspective, heart felt and as much a reminder to self as to Sona and others present there, the importance, the very meaning and essence of marriage❤️. I don't remember all the lines verbatim, as I turned into mush as he started talking about ego, and how if we let things go far enough, how the HUM will turn into "mein aur tum: in no time🤗😭How true is that! I hope this really touches some of the folks watching. I know we criticize all the shows, but this speech is worth its weight in gold👍🏼 I will have to rewatch to assimilate the lines again. I am not ashamed to admit I was wrong in predicting that this toast will be condescending, sly, derogatory to his wife. FAR FROM IT. He simply stated his most heart felt thoughts about what marriage and married life means to him and left it at that. Writer, please take a bow from me
Switching gears here, I have to especially appreciate the actor portraying Dr. Rohit Sippy. He seems to be very secure with himself to be doing the unconventional physical portrayal. He is as macho as they come in my world, a cardiac surgeon who is routinely bringing people back from death's door. But doesn't shy away from wearing a nightgown, unicorn slippers, sport mehendi and finally almost draped a saree😃. I am glad that neither the actor nor the writer have bound down the character Rohit Sippy with the unbearable machismo of an average ML, chest beating, flaunting his so called " physical masculinity" and rhetoric so on and sooo forth...... The writer had the guts to show that masculinity or femininity is nothing but humanity and sensitivity combined and there is nothing more endearing, masculine or feminine than a human being who is sensitive to people and life around them. Kudos to the actor for not letting his personal image come in the way of this portrayal. A generalized assumption in the health care field is that a surgeon may be wrong, but never in doubt, confident to the extent of being arrogant, almost God like😒. But as I interact more and more with my surgeons, I can't but admit that this assumption is farthest from the truth as can be. I have seen my surgeons interact with patients with as much sensitivity, hope, confidence and most humanistic of all their own apprehensions, I have seen them sit with families and cry and mourn with families as and when tragedy strikes. AND THAT IS DR. ROHIT SIPPY. Anyway, looks like I am going into a different tangent altogether and confusing all of you girls hereOK, enough of my sermon here.
The second thing I liked in yesterday's episode is Tanya and her composed self. Disgusting to see Pari calling Rohan bhayya. That Rohan guy is one disgusting worm- to engage with another nincompoop under the nose of his pregnant wife👎🏼
Apart from that, I liked nothing else. I found Suman's interactions with Nishi very distasteful- pointing out age difference, Nishi's looks and worse off are her taunts about Nishi and YK's inability to bear children😡 That was the lowest point.
Lastly, I am no fashion police, but even I can tell Sonakshi's look was horrid. Pale, washed out, tacky and garish with her dress and loud make up, almost appeared to be highlighting her heavy set figure for somebody who is portraying a well sought after actress from the entertainment industry. I am sorry, I don't like to comment much on physical attributes, but I simply didn't like this quintessential Christmas tree look which looked soo out of place for what appeared like an elegant, chic party. Loved how classy, chic and sleek Nishi looked, minimalistic and modern. I will stop there.
Did I leave anybody else out? Oh Yes ! YK👍🏼❤️ An amazing guy ! Rohit's toast about YK seemed so real and befitting for character YK and the actor. I will speak at some other time about Nishi, the actor. But for now, she is hurting and my heart is breaking for her.
Sonakshi was told in simple terms by Rohit- in real life not everything and everybody is your responsibility. In other words, you are not the sun of all solar systems👍🏼. I hope she heeds the advice. I want much more substance than a mere alcohol to be the culprit with Raani. I sooo don't want Sona to be the 007 after Rani now😡Please, writers, let us move on.
Kuch zyada hogaya from my side today. I liked the episode👍🏼 Watch it for Rohit's golden words
