Ok Dhruvie....you should know that my last post was before I watched the video and this one is after so a little change in my perspective but the essence remains the same. As far as Bani confessing previously is concerned (a little aside) I agree that she has and to you and I it seems pretty obvious but I've said this time and again that Jai is a GUY! I mean he's not going to get it unless Bani actually says those 3 words! So in Jai's defense he can't really help it if he's dense....it's a manufacturing defect 😉
Now that I've watched the sequence of events I suppose the director did try to justify her asking him to tell her the raaz but I still don't think that should've been the thoughts that crossed her mind at that point. They could've tried to figure out how to get out of this mess and once out the first thing that she could've questioned him about could be the raaz. I think considering the time and the situation her asking about the raaz is quite out of line. But I can see the thought process in that she was thinking about it last before she hit the weighing-scale-bomb 😛 She was under the impression that Jai was desperately trying to hide the secret and for which he was capable of murder. So I can see why she asked him that but I still don't think it's justified.
Considering that Jai's already made it clear that he would have nothing to do with her if she knows about the raaz I don't see how she could've thought the raaz will bring them together. I see that it's at the end of her string that she's asking about it coz at that point it doesn't matter if they are together or not but in that case she was thinking of getting closer to Jai from her perspective and not Jai's. Coz to Jai the revelation of the raaz means the end of their relationship whereas to Bani it means the next level. They were def not on the same page in that situation.
So I'm not sure if I'm being clear but I just don't think that Bani helped that situation in any way i.e. I can see that the director tried to indicate his thought process with that scene but didn't entirely justify it but I guess it's something we can accept considering the amount of Bollywood and Indian television cliches we are exposed to! 😕
Hi again, Piscean,
I saw the video again, and (I may sound crazy) but actually tried to put myself in Bani's shoes and think what I might've done if I was in her situation (I know I know, call me crazy....hey dhruvie, get a life of your own, will u?😭)..I agree with u when u say that it was not at all appropriate for her to STRESS SO MUCH about the raaz at that point, she could've gotten more emotional and "lived" those last few minutes with her husband whom she loved ever so much, and let him know abt it in a language that he understands!!!
I absolutely understand what u r trying to say when u say that she was way out of line when she was asking him abt the raaz, after i saw the episode the 2nd time (believe me, I did), and that the revelation of the raaz was clearly the start (or end) of something important to both of them (in case of Jai, it was the end of any relationship between them and for Bani it was the start of their relation), so I also understand when u say that they were not on the same page in that situation.
Well I still want to try and think positively abt this whole raaz-revelation thing that Ekta and her creatives have displayed after sooo much of prolonging..I think if the raaz was being hyped and delayed so much, maybe they were trying to show us that its that serious!! and ofcourse any dimwit wud've guessed by now that its Bani's mom who died that night on PR, but then maybe there's more to the raaz than that..........the hospital, the check, the judge, the commissioner, roshni and her bad driving skills, why only bani will be affected bcos of this and not her sisters, why didnt bani remember 29th june as her mom's death anniv. after coming across that date like a million times already, if it was only jai roshni and her bro then why those numerous attempts on almost killing bani, who is the one in white gloves....and many more..i can go on and on..........
so what i'm trying to say is, maybe its much more than what is shown to us so far..the part where its revealed that it was bani's mom, was meant to be obvious to the viewers..but what comes next, might take us by surprise..(oh i sincerely hope so, after the way I'm defending KS creatives..please don't let me down!!)
I really hope that the raaz thing's continuation turns out to be more interesting and gripping, although the start of the raaz revelation confused and angered and disappointed a vast majority of KS fans..😕😡😔
Dhruvie
P.S. That's it, I'm no longer wrecking my brains on this stupid raaz thing..its not worth it..whatever it is, will come out in the following episodes 😡😡
