After a long time, I will watch an episode for a second time, not because it was pro-AnuPre. Instead, would watch it first for the performances of all the actors and secondly because there will be slight respite in making Prerna ping-pong as the CVs are finally bringing in the Bajaj-Basu angle. After a long time felt the connect with all the characters and will surely recommend to watch it as a singled-out episode.
After the humiliation episode, today's episode is going to be second best performance of Eri, throughout the whole KZK journey. In many instances, Eri reminded me of the Pre we saw in the humiliation episode. From the bold Pre's conscience to the vulnerable Pre who broke down in front of Bajaj and then the fiery Pre who stood against Mohini, I am happy that Eri after a looong time got something meaty to perform and that too without her effort going in vain. Tomorrow again she might be back to the ping-pong Pre; but i will say today for sure brought the glimpses of the old Pre.
Parth....man....I don't know what to say. Day by day you are proving why EK is finding it difficult to play with Anurag's character. Inspite of the room filled with all the Basus & Bajaj, your screen presence was something which can't be described. You were just lying down there and the whole room is filled with Anurag's aura. And that is something I have never felt for an actor before. Boy, Anurag is your's and I will not even give credit for any of the creative team for that. Because, to make your presence felt, even when not in the scene or episode is something which the actor only should be credited.
The most happiest today I am, is for KSG. Because, the story is moving forward and today's focus being mainly on the Basu-Bajaj angle, I am hoping that apart from playing Pre's hubby KSG will get to perform some meaty scenes as Bajaj's past is being unravelled. Though today his character was more into emotional scenes, KSG succeded in bringing back the old Bajaj vibes while maintaining he continuation as of the changes happening in Bajaj. After a long time got a connect with the character Bajaj.
Along with all the above 3, i will say all the supporting characters, especially Moloy, Mohini & Maasi too did their part beautifully and brought the right emotions of pain, confusion, guilt, comic relief in their respective scenes. All together it was an entertaining episode and i hope this is a start of getting back the grip of the show as part of regaining its lost glory.
