Kumkum Bhagya EDT #12 - Page 52

GB, thanks for your thoughts.

About Purab, Disha, yes I watched the first episode when I heard there is a new girl. I lost interest very quickly and I really don't care about that pair. I am not watching the show for them. I am glad he is happy, but that is it. I would like all of us to have a Purab in our life.

@bold, this really is like a hit in the gut for me just reading it in the updates and here. I agree with your interpretation of Pragya's state of mind. I feel that she has reacted as any normal human would do seeing her husband seemingly happily married, the whole family now fidaa with the new wife and singing praises. Especially him stating what he did. What is a wife who just came off the death bed supposed to do? She would feel that everybody moved on and left her for dead. If Abhi who is living with the humshakal and doing all he is doing ( I read about the kiss too, which disgusted me to the core 😡🤢💔) with Munni can't figure out she is fake, how is Pragya who saw him with her from behind imagine there could be a look alike? Let's say even if she did, if we take this situation forward, what is she supposed to feel? Even if she trusted his love for her and confronted him about the new "wife" what good is that for her? If he said " she looked just like you, but didn't behave like you, her personality was different, but I assumed it was you and so I kept hitting on her to MAKE HER YOU", she is supposed to understand his stand point😡😡? Wouldn't that be even more devastating to know that he doesn't recognize her at all and that he is happy with what he has by his side and that he didn't miss her presence? I feel awful even writing this😡During the ML times, even though he didn't recognize the face, the writers told us again and again that he had this inexplicable connection to her, don't know what happened to that now that his memory is back.

@italics, yes, for a few days I can understand that he thought it was Pragya with a changed behavior probably from trauma. And he himself was in denial that she was gone. Good. But for that many days/ weeks, he won't know is not acceptable for me. He just didn't let his mind wander even as much as Mitali did which is sad for a male lead.

GB, as much as I want this confrontation to happen, I have no hopes it is happening. Pragya will be swayed by something, she will start finding excuses for him or she will be in for even worse fate, another threat to her life from that Sangram.

Thanks for putting up with my rant😊

I loveee double Sriti. I think Munni is precious and I want good things for her. I'm very annoyed by the plot line of Munni falling for Abhi - I find it utterly unnecessary and a bit demeaning to be honest. Does Munni falling for Abhi serve a plot purpose? No matter how I look at it I don't find it likable.

I also don't understand - straight out DO NOT COMPREHEND - the concept of Pragya pretending to be Munni pretending to be her...so hoping it starts to make sense as it unrolls on the show, because I have not understood one word of conjecture along these lines all these weeks 🤡

I feel like the current track ( or should I say lack there of ) has turned many of us off and away from the show. It continues to boggle me as to how this show is still maintaining the ratings as it does. Anyway, that is not for me to ponder. By no means am I watching what is being fed, but I made a grave mistake of watching last Thursday with Pragya following Abhi to the temple in despair and that episode has left me smoldering till now and continuing😭🤢😡.

I am mad at all three, Abhi, Pragya and Munni, with some of them I am hopping mad and with others, I am shaking my head in disbelief. I will let you decide who is who...But please, if you have no interest reading my general rant, please don't. Here goes:

Abhi : After watching last week's episode and reading the updates, I don't know if I still want to call him the hero of the show. He is obviously an integral part of the couple whose bhagya we are following, but he is very much absent in that couple😭👎🏼. He should be one of the guardians' of their marriage, the responsibility of safe guarding their marriage solely rests on Pragya's and his shoulders. But he continues to be clueless. It burns me to think that he was more particular about his Fuggy doll than his real Fuggy. If he can't feel her absence, then what difference does it make to him, who he is with? So even if Pragya stays away for the rest of her life thinking that he is having a happy life with her humshakal, he will have no clue😡, he won't miss her😭 Then what is the point in her returning after all ? That is simply terrible. He continues to be like a child whose doll is taken away and replaced by another one and he continues to play with it. I don't know if the analogy suits this situation or not. But I am thoroughly disturbed by the visual of him flirting with Munni in the car while Pragya is following him distraught😡. The lack of sensitivity from this very sensitive guy is leaving a very bad taste in my mouth😡

Pragya: For the life of me, I don't understand her point. I was sick reading yesterday, I believe, that she was asked by Munni to leave the place and meet the following day 😡What the hell ? The queen of the house has to find shelter with a savior doctor while she has not one,but two homes in the city, while the imposter lives in the queen's house and dictates the queen🤢Like Mina, I don't understand why she should act like Munni who is in turn impersonating her . Let us think about this from her standpoint for a minute. If she declares herself without talking to anybody, then what is the harm that can happen to anybody? Abhi wilI know that his sister and the non-sister witch are back to their ways ( I didn't get the feel that he took them into confidence anyway ) and Munni's guise would have lost all importance and credence, so what good is it to Aliya to execute the children , so hopefully they would be left unharmed, Aliya would have no hold on Munni after that. Everything would have been solved in 5 min. I understand Pragya is altruistic, but to what extent? Why does she want to get rid of Mumbai of all the witches, vamps and look alikes and save all the innocents of this world before she gets back with her husband???? WHY THE HELL WOULD SHE UNDERSTAND HIM FOR CARRYING ALONG WITH A LOOK ALIKE😡😡. This is seriously offensive for me.

Munni : I have no expectations from Munni whatsoever in the equation between Abhi, Pragya. She is simply an outsider, who has no responsibility towards safeguarding their marriage, any which way you cut it. Like I mentioned before, she might want the riches and Abhi for herself, we just don't know where her moral code lies. I don't really know what she wants, what makes her tick. Saving a family and herself by throwing some mind altering drug doesn't make her Pragya. She is simply in the right place at the right time. It however burns me bad to think that she is reaping the fruits of 3 years of drudgery from Pragya. What makes me mad is that she has forgotten the very reason she has taken up this deal in the first place. She has forgotten the safety of her wards and now very much in the process of adopting Abhi and Mehra family as her new wards. How does one who should have been deathly worried about the safety of her child, indulge in trying out jewellery, new dresses, celebrations, decorations and the likes😡Can anything like this even cross your mind when your child is held hostage? 😡😡😡. And on top of it, the flirting scene had me hitting the roof😡😡

Anyway guys, enough of my rant for today. If I continue to fester and fume, I will come back to rant again😔. Sorry if I hurt anybody's feelings, but I guess the writers and producers want this. People like me to be riled up and stay there. I refuse to watch if they decide to throw at us Munni and clueless Abhi in these stupid, tasteless, vulgar and offensive dramatics🤢🤢

It was actually Pragya who set up the meeting for the next day and Munni was only asking her to leave so that TaAliya wouldnt catch them both. Munni wants to keep the advantage for her and Prags, so letting the villains see them together at this point would be disastrous to them both.

In general I am loving this track ever since Pragya's survival was confirmed and I think a lot of people are tuning in out of curiosity and optimism, hence the improvement in ratings 😃

I think Pragya asked Munni to come back to the temple the next day with proof that taaliya put her up to this and about the kids.

If Pragya announces she's alive and returns to mm, then that's exposing taaliya for Munni impersonation. If they're exposed, they'll harm the kids. That's the premise behind Munni. For this track to go on, Munni has to stick around. Question is will Pragya pretend to be Munni? That'd be so insulting. Or will Munni be herself? Then what will Pragya do? Play dead again???🤢

You may want to check my last two posts in below thread, you'll notice how KKB still manages to get ratings..

@ LA, thanks for the info. How are you?

@ Minamma, Minamma❤️, seems like I have given you some heartburn. Not my intention, my friend. Yes, I agree, I haven't been watching, so my knowledge of Munni has glaring gaps. I probably watched 5 -6 episodes since Pragya got shot. In one of those episodes, I saw her getting excited and is trying out I don't remember whether it was ear rings or necklaces while Abhi is watching from the shadows. I believe it is the same episode when she compliments herself for looking like a film star. I was going to give her the benefit of doubt for all of that. I am trying very hard not to blame the " woh" in the equation, Pati, patni aur woh. If anything, I would blame the pati or patni, but " woh" shouldn't have any responsibility for the relationship. I strongly believe in it. But the last straw was when I saw both Abhi and Munni exchange flirtatious glances at each other in the car last Thursday, while my Pragya is following him , distraught😡😡😡. I just can't erase that visual out of my mind, unbearable for me😭🤢. This, she is doing not for anybody's benefit. I agree, even here, I will blame Abhi first before blaming Munni.

I may be wrong in saying that she is not worried about her children as I haven't been watching, but I have been carefully following the updates to see if this concern of hers overtakes everything she is doing. I didn't feel that she made any efforts at locating the kids, finding out about their safety, well being or to my knowledge any monologues reflecting this concern. I would have been so happy if we got any of those instead of her attending to the festivities and celebrations and decorations. Similarly would have been ecstatic if we had Abhi wondering why it feels wierd with Munni👎🏼. I don't know what the writers are thinking, but they are making me lose all respect for Abhi with this thoughtless charade. I am sorry, I can't look at it as him giving her space, I am seeing him as being foolishly believing and losing valuable time in finding Pragya. I understand the story demands it😲👎🏼

As for Munni, it burns me to think of her as one of those who is there at the right place at the right time reaping the benefits of Pragya's struggles. I am sure some of us experienced this, not so much in marital life, but it happens in life in general, more so in the professional life. We work so hard to achieve something, somebody just by being there at the right time, may just take it away and use it as a foundation for their success and we are left empty handed, hanging around in the side lines, helplessly watching. This is the picture Pragya presented to me as she was following Abhi to the temple as he is flirting with Munni, helpless, defeated😭💔So there you go, my friend.
