Arjun Without Doubt always I keep in my hand bag I can't even count how many times I read it. I even wrote a review on it I think at Wordpress com.I even presented the book to many of my dearer ones.Sweety and me post in Arjun the Mahanayak face book. I am a regular visitor of her FB Arjun Without doubt. I am happy you liked the book.

Oh, grt, it's such a fabulously written book no? I have been recommending it right, left and center to everyone I know. I always wanted to read Draupadi's POV bcos she is given such little word space in the original text and Arjun is a central character but the epic does not itself explore anyone through their emotional journey so it was such a treat for me to read it. Catching up with my reading after years and so I'm discovering gems like this.

I am so very glad I did not watch today's episode. I think the comments here have told me that it is a wise decision not to, EVER. I can;t stand any more Dev bashing, thank you very much. I am wondering what sense there is making one character seem like a total nincompoop just to elevate another. Automatically, the other characters seems weak too right? Its only when you have two strong personalities facing off that both come across as strong people. The only way I can reconcile to this show's story track now is to convince myself that the first 70- 100 epis of S1 were a totally diff show.
Then the same actors came back to act in a brand new show which is following the familiar TV formula of showing the women as mahaan, sacrificing, all powerful, yet sensitive, always kind, always perfect goddesses. Why??? Why can't we have a show where both the man and woman are shown as sane, regular, strong folks?

Dialogue of the day
Dev to Sonakshi...Strong banna tum se seekha hun.

With this line Durjoy Dutta destroyed whatever is left with Dev Dixit.
I mean it is a direct acceptance of the heroine's superiority over the hero.

So we should erase that Dev who withstood poverty in his childhood,focused on his studies achieved the status of the business tycoon ..that is not strength.

He who survived seven years without any light in his life,and bore with lonliness...that is not strength.

He who signed the document without even reading it properly for getting nearer to Soha..that is not strength.

He who faced Vikky's betrayal and successfully launched his software..that is not strength.


He who threw away his position and business just for the sake of his wife,unperturbed..that is not strength.

Strong banna Tum se seekha hai? Really?

Durjoy..you broke my Dev into pieces.. Hence you broke my heart.

Shaavi still you hope justice will be done to Dev?

Lakshmi, I think Dev's comment about learning to be strong from Sonakshi was more in line with her struggles as a single parent... being the single earning member of the family... fighting the society judgements about the father not being there, etc! Agreed Dev and Ishwari have seen extreme struggles but Dev at the moment wants to acknowledge Sonakshi's struggles so she doesn't feel guillty of consequences of her speech! It was his way of encouraging Sonakshi ... acknowledgement of strengths big or small is greater than comparisons leading to ego clash! Dev's and Ishwari's struggles were due to untimely demise of his dad but all of Bose family sufferings were directly due to Dixits ( Ishwari, GKB and her son, and confused Dev)...it is unblelievable to see both families move on and forgive the wrong doings now !!! Bose family maybe perfection oriented or have High self respect but they haven't indulged in lies and manipulations and possible criminal activities like Trixits! Baba Bose may not be the perfect father/husband but he will not cheat his kids, OR hire goons to beat Dixits up! I think Dev has understood both his family and Sonakshi's well... his guilt may arose from that reason as well...I admire Dev for doing that!

I have always written about Sonakshi's facade, pendulum attitude and people pleasing attitude (esp withIshwari) ... I think all of Dev's actions now will help her reflect and build her trust and communicatation with him even more ... hopefully she will talk more about those 7 years with Dev- her regrets about hiding Soha from Dev instead of self talks and FBs.. then we will hopefully see some balance

I frankly do not know what to say about today's episode, while on one hand I am happy that the makers are trying to get across the message of woman empowerment but the way they are trying to drill the message at least in my opinion is pathetic, there are various ways of getting the message across but showing the opposite gender to be useless is probably not the right way to do it. I am actually appalled at the way the makers have stereotyped how men cannot take care/balance their personal & professional life together, isn't it an insult to all those single fathers and all those husbands who support their wife as well as balancing their professional & personal lives? I do not know what Durjoy Dutta's or the makers definition of feminism is but it is certainly not what they are showing, many might not agree but it's just my opinion.

Also I guess today's episode is a perfect response to all those who feel that the series is all about Dev, please watch today's episode you will realise that it was never about Dev. It was always about Dev's mistakes & guilts along with Sonakshi's flawlessness. What is surprising is that it is only now that Dev has realised how strong & better women are than men, I say surprising because he did not see or realise this when his mother was working as well as taking care of the 4 kids without any help. It's only after Sonakshi came back into his life he has realised this, actually this kind of Justify's Bijoy's statement as well that Dev became a man only after Sonakshi came into his life.

Another thing to note is CVs will never show Sonakshi in a negative way, when this track started many were questioning that why does Dev need to get himself involved in every household work without taking any help, Did Sonakshi ever do that ? And the answer is in today's episode, the CVs cleverly inserted a flashback scene wherein Sonakshi was taking care of Suhana without taking Asha's help as well as telling her that she likes to do everything herself along with missing Dev at the same time, so once again Sonakshi becomes guilt free/ error less. Just like they had inserted the flashback scene of Sonakshi coming to IN with a six month old Suhana and made her free of any guilt for hiding Suhana. Huge applause to the makers šŸ‘ šŸ‘ , in fact today you have finally officially made your FL Mahaan just as is expected of any Indian TV Show, absolutely amazing šŸ‘ šŸ‘. Now please show something which will show that Dev has failed as a house husband as well so that you can show how your FL is far more superior than the ML of your series.

Apologies for my long rant, just my POV. No offence to anyone. Also apologies if anyone felt bad.

PS - On a lighter note can someone please send a dictionary to the makers, twice now in two episodes they have referred Sonakshi as "women instead of "woman, wonder how many women are their within one Sonakshi šŸ˜† šŸ˜†

Sometime back Shaavi elaborated in analysis thread I think how Dixits are far better than Boses with valid points. I agree with her and I wish she would present that post here. And I strongly oppose your view that whatever sufferings Boses had Dixits and Dev in particular are the reason. For I feel the opposite..it is Sonakshi who ruined Dixit family and tried to make amends by bringing them together. I request Shaavi to repost that if possible.

Same thoughts. Today the makers inserted Sonakshi taking care of Soha intentionally to highlight her. But I think they forgot what Soha said yesterday...that Asha and Bijoy took care of her while Sonakshi always attended her work. Sorry to say but it is unconvincing today to show her suddenly so concerned about Soha.


Mahaanta kaa pramaan Sonakshi Bose..

Actually I am confused regarding one thing, from whom exactly did Sonakshi receive the award from, was it from the client, any 3rd party organisation or was it from her own office staff. Because she said that it was an office party and then Saurav said that they signed the project today. So basically even before the project started Sonakshi was given a award. RIP LOGIC. Also if it was an office party where was Saurav who is supposed to be the fifty percent partner of the company.
