sriti's timing of expressions and dialogue delivery has always been top notch but with pragya what i love is she brings out that simplicity of p's characters with her voice even when she is giving it back to tannu or abhi love that!

Sriti is doing a great job showing Pragya's exasperation with the "happy marriage" act they have to keep up during the party! Her quick facial expressions are wonderful. I feel like she doesn't get as much screentime as Shabbir to do this kind of acting - she does get a lot of screen time, but mostly she has to look worried/concerned/confused/sad...could also just be that I notice Shabbir more 😳

Anyway this is the Sriti AT and I wanted to note some of her awesome moments in the July 28 episode, here are gifs of Pragya making faces 😉

& this quiet facepalm before the theekhi mithai debacle is my favourite 😃:

Thanks for these avis, Mina 😊 One of the major qualities of Sriti as an actress is she never stands still as in even when it's not required of her she always shows perfect reaction/expressions even in group scenes instead of just standing around blankly 😳

And you are right, Sriti hasn't been getting enough screen time till 2 days back unless it were just nok-jhok scenes or reaction shots like these. But hopefully we'll get to see more of her and her character's stand in the coming episodes like they showed yesterday and today, which means more chances of seeing her actual performances 😊

Roger, I hope by the time Purab runs away, Abhi will have better understanding of Pragya and not just go by what he hears and sees but by what he feels.

what expression? Mujhe toh same laga. That squinting of eyes with indignation, thats what she always does. I dont know why they make pragya say she is a teacher, and thats why she is ordinary. 😳 dont teachers make up with brain what they dont have in body? 😳

I'm not referring to performance 😆 but to be fair, I think Madhurima was really good in that scene as the slightly unhinged girlfriend for whom things were spiraling out of control. I was referring to how she was standing around gloating when Pragya listed out her "supposed qualities" but then the way her face changed when she was made aware of her real position in Abhi's life now. That smirk was replaced by shock.

Yeah I don't understand that teacher stance as well. Maybe it's a reflection of real life?

Glad for Pragya's dream/imagination scene today. Finally they are enforcing Pragya's stand to stay in the marriage with Tannu's scene yesterday and Sarla's fainting today. I thought the scene also defined what Pragya thinks of Abhi's stand and his actual stand on the scenario.

Also liked Pragya in her dance. I know we crib about Pragya not giving back to Abhi and as much as needed. But it's not about her giving back ultimately. It's about her backing him. She was there with him even in his fall.

It's for this AT. Abhi is not suffering the wedding. He is hating yet enjoying... So it's Pragya really suffering as of now!

But she's not really suffering in the real sense. It's Abhi who is mostly "suffering" and talks about having to bear with her and waiting for the day he'll be free. Pragya is just going with the flow. It's no bed of roses for her but then in no way is she "suffering". Right now the main thing that's bothering her is how her sis and Purab are involved in this messy affair and being frustrated in not being able to help them.

Yeah she's always in character as the cool, level-headed person she is. Doesn't even have to raise her voice or get flustered to get her point across in a quiet manner, but yet her words make their most impact 😆

She is yaar. She doesn't sit and cry. But koi uskey dil sey pooche! The wedding night, the scene after police station were evident of that. She will have a lot of frustration and tears out one day. But I hope that comes out as a blast on Abhi.

Like she mentioned yesterday, yes, she was shocked and hurt but she has reconciled herself to it that she doesn't feel any hurt anymore. And I think the main reason for that was she never had any expectations coming into this marriage in the first place, she was fully prepared for a difficult ride. The realization of it being a trap threw her off initially but she never thought this will turn into a happily ever after. The one place where she does suffer is for her family but if she feels they (especially her mom) are happy she will be content.

Now if Abhi was entirely indifferent and ignorant of her without the real state of their marriage being out then yes she would be suffering mainly with the effort of trying her best to please him but him not caring one whit about it. That would have been even more devastating to her and her self-esteem that she's not able to be a good wife.

At least now each's position is clear so she really doesn't have to bother much and just carry on with her life.
