Three posts in one day that is a record even for me ...😃


I watched today's episode of the show after ages and I liked it. I liked it as a stand alone episode or a beginning of a new story .

Here are my thoughts:

Today we got to see another facet of Sonakshi Bose and soon I am confident we will see another facet of Dev Dixit or rather an earlier version of him

I viewed the episode today without any emotions associated with the characters involved..because I sometimes get too emotional and then I am not able to see the clear picture or a story that the makers are trying to tell after all it is theirs to tell and ours to dissect😉 whether we agree about the portrayal or not

So here goes:

In order for the story to move forward the story needs to go back to the very beginning again kind of like a slate wiped clean so to speak so that the Story of Dev and Sona can be rewritten in a stronger way

Let me talk about Sona first , what we know about her character is that she is a mixture of Asha and Bijoy she has the patience of Asha but the Pride of Bijoy a true daughter of them both so to speak. She also has an stubborn streak in her a streak never to give up till she wins. She fell in Love with Dev and took her mothers advise mostly in her marriage to Dev so far she had the patience to take the crap dished out to her by the Dixits but her goal was always not any of the Dixits but Easwari she wanted to be accepted by her and so goes to any extreme. But there is another side of her that we got glimpses of earlier in the show she takes great pride in her upbringing to the point of getting defensive when it comes to money ;that she inherited from her Father she was after all his pride and joy.

Enter the slap fest I am not going to argue whether it was accidental, intentional etc but it happened and it happened to her Father the one whose traits she has and who is her pride too so when her Pride is hurt what does she do she closes herself and takes action as that is what she was taught to do all her life take actions


Now let us talk about Dev. Though most of the portrayal now is him being a weak son or a husband his early portrays was of a shrewd businessman, he is also highly manipulative and does what he has to do to get what he wants he also has a stubborn streak to him . What does he want now? Sona to come back to him first he will beg but then he will do what he knows best manipulate the situation. The Bose Money woes will give him opportunity here

In all this Easwari the master player she has seen only the weak son but she has yet to see the shrewd businessman i n action.. ...she is complacent now that Dev will cry for a while now but will get over Sona ..but that is surely not going to happen. She has seen only the accommodating Sona but not the one with Pride she will get to see that too(hopefully)

For Sona and Dev love story to get anywhere at all Sona needs to not give in and Dev needs a way to amend all the wrongs and I think that is where the story is headed because if they are not together Easwari will always have a upper hand and until now they were together but not really TOGETHER . Her true colors will only come OUT only when they are together despite the troubles

The master stroke if the Pre Nup comes to light is only Bijoy knows that Dev refused to sign it so being the truthful person he is he will side Dev on it even though he has his misgivings on him now.

Closing with these lyrics from Turn the Tide ...This is from Dev Perspective

You have the bravest heart
The strongest emotions
After all the harm I've caused
You still want my lovin'
I think I've lost your love
Oh baby, it's a shame
But how can I be mad at you
When I'm the one to blame

I can't believe
I still receive
So much affection from your side
If you could give me one more chance
I'd love to turn the tide


Thoughts?

That is what even I think the story is headed towards. I wrote about it yesterday after reading the spoilers and later viewing the epi. I hate to say but I kind of liked it.
as this is drama ,concocted for entertainment with good looking actors who can really enact with awesome chemistry, I would like story to move in this direction.

Awesome post ...I agree to everything you said but infeel the prenup is further going to distance boses and dev.. but dev will realize all his mom's doing snd then will get down and actually start cleaning the mess and winning over boses with out using his money or power.

Lovely writing once again Sabita 👏

Well I am not sure on Dev, but this reminds me of Mr.Darcy and oh how I love the man . A respectful, dignified approach to woo your lady-love who you apparently failed earlier. And believe me, in Indian Television serial I have seen many lead characters redeeming themselves. But again their crimes were also not THIS severe that we can point out to the very root of their upbringing. Slapping an elderly person, asking your FIL in such loud voice to shut up, asking your MIL and indirectly FIL to get out, and the list continues. I can never give a guy second chance who disrespects an elderly without any fault of them. I mean despite all the tortures, Sona didn't ever utter a single word against Dadi Bua who was living hell !


I dont want Devakshi together anymore. Done and dusted with moron Dev. Hope Sona moves on and finds a beautiful house like Rithwik's to spend the rest of her life with. No woman deserves a guy like Dev.

Yes the drama quotient has gone up but the story is moving forward. The thing about this serial it always ends up proving most of our predictions wrong. That's why it makes an interesting watch.

Sona has woken though I don't agree with her methods of mortgage but hopefully is able to stand her ground tomo in front of the dixits. I hope she asks all the questions that this forum wants answers for & usually the cvs always deliver!

As I have said in all my posts devakshi & ish & their chemistry makes it very watchable unlike most other serials out there.

Hmmm thanks for calming me down Sabita. 😳😆 I know I was happy to see Sona not falling for his 'feeling weird' crap and not attending his calls. 😉


And this would lead to Sona-Ishu confrontation too. Still not sure what would open Dev's eyes, just a small piece of paper pre-nup I dont think can do the trick. 😕 But yes, in terms of Ishu's realization (all wrong reasons though, but realization that Dev has his own life) and Sona's giving up on Dixit shit, is definitely a step forward. Hope she doesn't go back to the jail.

I have seen many male leads who are all type A personalities who have been very aggressive maybe not with the in laws but definitely with the female leads. Ipkknd was a prime example . He pushed pulled hurt made her life miserable but still she fell in love with him & forgave him for a lot of horrendous things he did to her & her family. That serial became so popular. I have several other examples. In Indian tv all kinds of characters have been redeemed whi in real life would have been in jail! So we should not be surprised if & when dev is redeemed. That is the story right his redemption & then both of them together solving ish problems!

My 2 cents!

For me the highlight was Mamaji back in the show. I hope he sets things right and advises Dev. He wanted to have a chat with Sonakshi so this could be a turning point. 😃

The script has started moving forward and as you have rightly pointed out, Dev's aggressive and stubborn streak is back. But Sonakshi's decision is hastily done. When your finances are down, it's time to negotiate! Sonakshi is going all out to save her family's pride just because GKB insulted her family (which she always does!) and Ishwari followed suit. The Bose family should not give in to this indecisiveness of Sonakshi. Am surprised that the Tiger Bijoy is now reduced to a mouse and giving all the powers of decision making to his daughter. It's his house and their wealth on a platter. And they don't have much. Suicidal, I would say.

The pre-cap was not conclusive so would need the episode to play out to figure out why Dev refused! Ishwari could be an excuse used by him as he is a shrewd businessman! 😃 Sonakshi thinks by returning the money she can save her family's dignity? Wrong! She needs to give a piece of her mind to GKB and Ishwari too. Dev needs to hear this and figure out its time he spoke to Mamaji about GKB.

Interesting episodes ahead.

Lovely post dear but I doubt if prenup will change Dev's and Ishwaris equation...this can ONLY create more MU and distance betwn Sona and Dev...Dev needs a shocker to change his way towards Sona and family...something like him not able to have Sona in his life any more...on those grounds ONLY then will it really hit hard on him...
Something tells me that again Boss family will be at the mercy of Dixit clan once they come on road because of mortgage issue...I personally would nt want Dev to help or bring them to Dixit Mansion...but I feel its going to happen...the reason being car conversation and also the drama factor these days have increased...so only if both under one roof ...we will get to see the Dixits insulting Boss ...I think this will lead to divorce...2nd marriage ...etc...This serial is no more the one that we all started seeing...its turning into typical serial kinds...

just a thought ...I hope they prove me wrong
