* little thing: poor heer. runs to pour her heart out to gayatri-mom 'bout her confusions and her resolve. given how everyone knows that gayatri-mom doesn't care 'bout anyone but prem, wondered why she was doing it. but i guess, if heer can't talk to anyone, she'll probably spontaneously combust or burst or something...
poor heer. gave all of herself to one guy. who ended up not being able to take the thought of life without her and chose to stick it out in the fire in delhi, rather than take on the fire of life... 😡
*can you tell that i'm still mad at prem for that stoooopid video-recording they found at ctvrecording?*
* little thing: so what did they mean by gayatri-mom opening her eyes? that the name prem penetrated through her want-to-sleep-till-prem-gets-back senses? 🥱
* little thing: 'kay. so who else wanted to hit meher on the upside of her head at the end of that sweet-preet scene in the kitchen??
here he is, all tall and dark and dashing and caring. yes, she does tell him he is too nice. *mebbe that's partly what explained the unbearable sweetness of his smile? all bow before the god of smiles! so says his priestess!* but after he wipes that dough off so cutely, all she does is scrunch her face in pain at his retreating back??? *must try to keep aside some brain from prem-heer-are-one to understand meher better*
* little thing: ooh, but pretty outfit, heer! pity it had such a short screen life..
* little thing: eeeks. kodiyonpal is a seriously creepy dude. guaranteed to lower the temperature in any atmosphere to around that required to accomodate a vampire or two? *darn it! why, why, why did nihaal and heer stop veera's marriage to ratpal?? everything about them suited so perfectly! 😡*
* little thing: *sigh* first meher's little questionning session starts the grave that sita is supposed to fall into. now that horrid kodiyonpal makes sure that the sides of the grave is concrete, and firm. what was the need for a bloomin' servant to question why she left so early in the morning? or that the rat-mother wasn't there?? *'kay, i got the mother not being there line. but the questioning her actions tone? 😡*
in contrast! how queenly heer dealt with that servant! y'know? when prem comes back, and grinds ravan into the ground, and they take over ratpal's assets, it would be perfect to have ram prem and sita heer as king and queen over that kingdom....
* big heer thing: omg! i truly like this heer! she deals with the problem of event-managing the function at ratty's home like a pro! *i guess it's easy once you manage the kitchen in the juneja's hotel?*
totally loved it. 'cause *like i wrote in another post earlier today* (http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1114882)
she's not doing "just like that". she's doing it with a firm purpose in mind. and what other purpose can heer have than a prem-purpose!? 😆 here's what i thought 'bout it: *cuttin' 'n pasting 'cause battery's short. 😆*
i loved that heer was in the middle of organising ratty's party - and all the while scheming on how to get a kbc crew to cover it! seriously, man! when did heer get that worldly-wise??? i mean, i know we've our pet theories of how heer actually became prem - but seriously guys, did the guy have businessman in his soul? so that when his soul transfered, heer got businessman in hers too?? 😆 seriously loved that heer.
just as i seriously loved the heer that has never given up on prem being alive. have you noticed that? she has never done that. she has always talked on the phone to him. constantly watched out for his stuff -- as if she is just being the caretaker till he comes back. for a moment, you have to wonder: in the ramayan, bharat takes care of ram's kingdom till he returns. here, ram and sita are separated and he has gone. and she is taking care of his kingdom for him till he comes back! no?
so i loved that conversation she has in her head with him - that veiled anger, that threat that when she does run into him again, she's gonna wring his uncaring neck - 😡 that idiot who just sat casually in the fire giving everyone orders on how to live their lives! 😡 - and i hope she does too! 'cause i know that when heer does it, she'll make sure she doesn't really kill her prem. not sure that i can be trusted with that...😆
* little thing: and it didn't help my anger with prem any that we see him all tousled haired and white-t-shirted totally sprawled under a comforter in the next scene. and 'kay, can they stop with pushing the idea that hip-hop prem's totally into money? we get it, already! tell us something new?
but.. um..he's asleep in bed and the assistant in specs come to give him a cheque there?? er... what's with that? assistant-in-specs has the keys to hip-hop's house? or hip-hop doesn't lock his doors? 'cause the other day the other assistant met him outside his house, no?
* little thing: um... who else is getting a little zapped at all the lalit-juneja-preet love? i dunno why i was okay with lalit-juneja and prem being so thick but not preet -- mebbe i'm just missing naughty preet?
damn that prem juneja! why doesn't he just hurry up and get back so that we can all go back to laughing at preet-antics, having gayatri-mom as being a more rational being than this vegetable, and sighing at prem-heer antics rather than hip-hop prem and sim-sam simran? *huge sigh*
* little thing: hey, but harun-varun got more lines! wow!!! wonder if he's throwing a party this weekend 'cause of it! 😆
* little thing: er... so veera gets stuff, and kul-di gets...? meher gets...? i don't know this function at all, but veera gets it all?? veera???! ... what did i miss? actually, what do i keep missing 'bout why veera's still in the show?? *sigh*
but is nice that kul-di's character at least is consistent. her scene with meher was bang-on - thank goodness.
* little thing: but i must admit, i liked lalit juneja cracking a joke at his own expense: hitting meher 'cause he hadn't hit anyone in a while. that was a good touch... someone in the scripting/screenplay department's doing their homework.
* little thing: totally didn't get that entire ratpal-sanjana segment. partly, i guess we've been talking 'bout this for sooooo long that when we finally get to see that figure (in black, notice??! i'm seriously right about vampires in this show, amn't i?) in bed, it was a total ho-hum moment. seriously, they should've shown this weeks ago...
but i had no clue that they are going to try to turn this into a comedy track! i mean -- did you see ratpal's behaviour. *stealing from what i'd written earlier again 😆*
didn't everyone roar with laughter at the whole ratpal-sanjana segment???! my crowd and i were in splits all through dinner after having seen that one. first of all, the shifty way in which he crept into her room -- what was that all about, man??! who the heck is he hiding from? i mean, is that not his own house? did the renter of the house have a clause that he must not have patients (incredibly well preserved) on whatever is keeping that body breathing and beautiful in any room? it was hilarious!!!
and then, the way he went around looking at the pictures!! what the... ??? i mean, she is right there! the memories are in your head! then what the .... was he doing crawling around the room looking at the pictures for?? seriously, these scriptwriters need a holiday!! and the last straw on my gang's laughter camel's back was -- the one that he stood for the longest and touched longingly was.... the one with himself in it!!!!!! bwaaaaaa....ahhahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!!
the idea was stale. the execution was sad. and is a pity they didn't get a more gripping character to play ravan in this show. 'cause even with the (sad) lines that this guy gets, there should've been a stronger effort to deliver it with more intensity and evil, rather than the mostly sleepy, chewy effort we get now. mebbe if someone takes away whatever it is that this guy chews?? *sigh*
'kay. i'm still w&w-ing the show. but i must admit: they're making a mistake in having bloopers with ravan's character in the ramayan. was it finally his own father's pinddaan that ratty did in rajasthan? why was it important for us to see it then? the heer-ratpal encounter at the pinddaan ground was hardly of any significance? why was it put there then? *seriously puzzled* wonder what we get to find out next week...
highlight of the show: though i really didn't like her red outfit, heer plotting to get prem to the ratpal mansion so that she can demand some answers from him! *go heer!*
