A lot of people are saying they are disappointed with this episode. I am not for the following reasons.
People harp on about scenes being unreal etc but the moment reality is shown it’s then too boring. How different are we really from the TRP aunties!!
In my view today was one of the most realist episodes:
- Anurag frustration was so real. His reaction to office problem coming home when his mom is making him drown in made up home issues is how anyone would behave. People will and probably already have written essays about how this behaviour will compare to the supercilious coolness of the new negative character. But it’s the latter that not based on reality.
- anyone who knows me on this forum knows that I have been waiting for the day when they bring Nivi back to the business. She is older and has more experience with the company. She lacked EQ in the past but now that has changed. It would be great to see her as a excellent business women. And something I hope in 2019 ekta has the guts to show.
- and finally the most controversial. I don’t think Veena Ma is being inconsistent in asking prerna to leave be wedding. In English there is a saying the hair that broke the camels back. Maybe there is a similar one in Hindi. This is intended to say that it is often not the heavy load that breaks a camel but after years of carrying a heavy load, a hair can break it.
Very often I have observed in real life that people are willing to give chance after chance and then suddenly they break.
Veena was initially against the anurag-prerna relationship but the two of them convinced her. Once she gave her support, veena supported prerna when she went to Basu house to fight for her rights. Knowing that her broken daughter would either win or get closure out of it. She made her displeasure towards anurag clear during holi etc. But the lack of respect shown towards the Sharmas even after prerna realised the Basus from komo is probably what has been the hair that broke her back and made her ask prerna to leave the marriage. Should she have intervened before and told prerna after prerna was put in jail to leave and come back home? Yes! She should have. But she didn’t maybe because when you are in a moment you lose perspective on how bad things have gotten. That doesn’t preclude her realising omg Mohini is never ever going to change. It doesn’t matter what my daughter does or we do or how much her Ian loves prerna, things will never change!
I don’t know where this story is going and whether I will find veena unreasonable soon. But today, right now, I don’t.
