Of confessions, breakup and reunion; show losing its charm? - Page 3

Just watched the segment where the Great Vegeterian Dev Babu gives permission to Bose family to have NonVeg in the wedding .. So nice few chickens, fishes and lambs/goats will have to sacrifice their lives to redeem Dev Babu they will achieve 'veergati' 😆

This show is funny the way they want to show Dev's redemption, be it through this, or through supporting Sona in an obvious battle of infertility which is related to humanity and not redemption 👏

Let me copy paste my reply from Anna's post 😆

Where from this separation I expected Dev becoming a man and learning to value Sona, starting to see things outside him and his mother's little world, I expected Sona to really consider if she really wanted to continue with such unhealthy Mommy-Son relationship or if this is what she really wants despite the deep-rooted love. But NO. Dev didn't grow up one ounce, in fact it went worse, he went to the path of stalking the girl, harassing a man and manipulating with his career. On the other hand, we have Sona who seem to have forgiven Dev's brutal breakup and running-away nature in a split of second, the only obstacle she claims to have is from her parents, but she herself has no objection against all these. Asha played instrumental role in convincing her, and she got convinced in 1 scene ? 😳 Dev became a man with own personality because he didn't elope with her ? From 'How can you support him Maa' to the very next scene 'Daddy won't agree' ?

Great post and echoes so much of what Ive been thinking and thought during yesterday's episode. Huge shifts in thought and opinions are happening in just 1 or 2 scenes. One minute Sona is questioning Dev's lack of personality, the next she is worrying if her dad will agree. So basically she was ready to marry Dev all along, only her Baba's anger stood in her way? You know, the way they are showing Sona, it makes me feel like she's only in love with Dev the romantic - the dreamy looking guy who can say all the right romantic things and makes her heart race fast. What else does she love about him? We were made to believe it was his goodness of character and love for family. Well the second part no one can dispute but goodness of character - how can she forget or forgive him for what he did to Ritwik? She knows he's capable of great ruthlessness..the way he caused her to lose her job, caused Ritwik to lose his bank loan, even the way he dumped her. And she is signing up for life with him despite knowing about this streak in him? Not to mention his obsessive behaviour. What makes her suddenly blind to all this? Because she is in love with Dev the great romancer. Reality will hit her soon enough and let's see where she is when Mr. Romantic shows his feet of clay again.

Thank you!

Couldn't agree more. After the amazing confession, the proposal seemed more like an anti-climax. Also, what is with the jet speed of the show? Yesterday's episode could have been shown over a span of a week. Everything happened so fast. Sona agreeing, Bijoy agreeing, Re-union, proposal, bangle bandhan whatever, Riya niki teasing, Devar bhabhi tashan and RR taunts. Phew!

This jet speed is perhaps my biggest cause of concern. If they continue to go about the same speed, they can end the show within two weeks. 😆

I think the makers raised our expectations too much with the flawless confession and repeating again and again that it's gonna be the World's best proposal. This was no where close to it. It was a cliche. Not that there's anything wrong with cliches. But it just felt incomplete somehow.

I didn't want any thing grand or OTT. The beauty of the confession was that it was simple and heartfelt. I would have much rather preferred a sincere apology, a bit of a hesitation and awkwardness but that vanishing after a heartfelt conversation and their need for each other.

Exactly. The set a huge benchmark with the absolutely heartfelt and amazing confession that people's expectations with the proposal went sky-rocketing, mine included. Grandeur didn't matter to me either, feelings and emotions did. I wanted to be moved and be hit right in the feels. Sadly, the proposal was a half-baked, poorly decorated and badly served deal of a cake.

Also,the total lack of intimacy has started affecting the storyline now. They didn't behave like two people who have just promised to spend the rest of their lives with each other. The stumble and fall, though cute, wasn't really needed. Instead a tight hug and a forehead/cheek kiss or pretty much anything else that conveyed intimacy would've been fine. First, we were asking for intimate scene just coz we love to watch Devakshi together. Now, with the infertility track coming up, it has become a necessity. So is Shaheer's haircut. It was all fun and games in the beginning. But now, it is taking away from the scene. I couldn't concentrate on what he was saying yesterday during the proposal coz I was too distracted by his hair and unkempt look. It seems the makers are slacking in more departments than one.

I didn't mind the lack of intimacy factor much at all because even with no physical intimacy at all, their scenes, their gestures, their moments together showed this yearning and longing for each other, subtle but need to be together was apparent, not forget the soul-stirring conversations they used to have (the scene right after their confession in Dev's room where he express his desire to know all there is to Sona) but I'll have to agree that its beginning to show up now. Two people immensely in love do have little intimate moments here and there.

I don't even want to comment on the drastic changes in characterization. Dev totally losing his spine - He has steadily gone from bad to worse ever since the break up, Sonakshi's unpredictable and honestly, super confusing behavior - going straight from 'He treats me like a toy' to 'Will baba agree'?, Ishwari's nonsensical behavior. I feel totally disconnected to all the three characters.

This drastic changes in both Sona and Dev or rather the regression from good to bad (worse hasn't arrived yet, imo and I hope i doesn't) is beyond my comprehension. Or may be, this iswhat love turns you into. Vulnerable.

I have loved this show right from the promos. But now, the promos seem to be the only watchable aspect of the show.

Haha. *high-five* 😆

i have stop following the show religiously. I had very high expectation from the show i guess. In the beginning i have forget that it is Daily soap. where logic, Common sense, practicality doesn't work. N it looks like Shaheer is bored with the show. neither he pay attention to his looks nor he looks excited about his role.

Highly Disappointed.
