Kumkum Bhagya EDT #12 - Page 60

But this show especially this year has been pointedly degrading Abhi's character and is taking us to a state where even redemption may become difficult with the kind of monologues he gets to utter. There is currently NO active HERO in Kumkumbhagya. Abhi ONLY gets few minutes of random screen time used for some mindless fighting and forced flirting/dreaming/comical/crying scenes as a mere SIDE character with disconnected and senseless dialogues and scenes.

And they give hopeless crying or silly comical scenes to Pragya thinking viewers will sit and cry with her pitying that nobody believes her identity, what a poor thing??? When everything that happened is her own doing.. NO highly educated, practical, confident, intelligent woman and a wife who cares, loves and regards her marriage vows so much would have behaved in KC sequence episodes the manner in which she stood like a motionless dumb object when Munni's kids where right before her eyes and just walked out only to come back next morning with some OTT NGO ladies to insult her husband. 👎🏼

Abhi & Pragya despite their imperfections, flaws in script and misdoings of KKB crew, where once lovable, charming, entertaining, adorable whom many sections of audience could deeply connect at an emotional level both as individuals and as a couple. 😊 Now there is steep fall in the amount of deep feelings left for them, they have really become annoyable to watch on screen, both as individual characters and as a couple, when there is NO basis left for all these forced scenes as lollipops.

LA, agree with everything you said⭐️. Especially with the bolded part which slipped my mind as I was writing my review the other day. I was very annoyed as I watched her complaining in front of the Mandir. It all seemed so superficial. My thoughts are these" Missy, God gave you a brain and a voice, and your husband a brain and a heart. If you both don't use those, God can't come at every instance and make you utilize those faculties " I just couldn't empathize with her just like I can't empathize with Abhi's vantage point. It almost seemed like a fulfillment for a rating has been checked off😲

It is BATH TIME at MM😕. That is how I can sum up the episode. Here goes :

Episode opened with Abhi, Pragya still bickering about who gets to take a bath first. Abhi beat her to it by taking off his shirt😲. When did he get a purple bathroom, guys🤔? I am unable to keep up with his interiors being changed so many times. He decides to take a bath instead of a shower. Fair enough !!!! I can't believe this 30+ year old celebrity, who is in the prime of his career has so much time to take baths routinely in a tub, in the morning😲. I mean nothing wrong with it, most of us are happy if we could take a 5 min peaceful shower before our duties call us😳 OK moving on.

The good MM waasis and Mithali bhabi feel like Abhi is teaching Pragya a lesson which she will remember. By doing what? Taking a bath first ? Or keeping her hungry for another hour? If she is so hungry, what if she just ate without taking a bath? Then who learnt the lesson? Abhi, for delaying his own breakfast khamakha😲 and taking his beauty bath while Pragya tucks in her food😃. I mean, if his goal is to keep her hungry. Simonica finds that bickering as an opportunity to kill him. I understand her, how can anybody tolerate this kind of childishness?😕 I know her motive is different🤔.

Simonica seems like a jack of all trades. She knows how to electrocute a person by electrifying the water😲 I struggle to find my GFCI when my circuit breaker goes off. Shame on me. This woman has run two cables and figured out in a second which heater supplies the house and is able to open the hatch and put the cable in the water as well. Just wondering, if you have a high voltage current passing through the cables which you are putting in water, nothing happens to the person that is handling the cables? I didn't see any protection, she even had the switch on, AS she was putting those cables in water? 😲 I know, I shouldn't ask these questions, but my mind went beserk as I was watching that sequence. BTW, that was the best kept attic I have ever seen, everything is neatly labelled to aid the villians👍🏼

Abhi screaming and running out in a short blue robe, with shaving cream all over him. Pragya finds him handsome😲. OK fine will move on and not dwell on this as it is her personal opinion. But what about Abhi? Make up your mind brother. You can't call her " not Pragya" but admit that she is the home minister and hence should check your bathroom water supply and get it fixed. I mean if she is not your beloved Pragya why would you ask her to do all these things for you ? From your point of view, if she is impersonating, she might do those things, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY WHY WOULD YOU WANT HER and DEMAND TO DO THESE THINGS FOR YOU ? You should be out there looking for "your" Pragya instead of playing with "not Pragya". Brother can't have it both ways👎🏼 , if you mistrust her, don't call on her to do your petty jobs. I am not as grossed out as I anticipated as I knew he is not playing with the Munni chick now👎🏼. My Pragya wouldn't shut off the water supply for me, he laments😲. Here is we go again, if this is how we differentiate between real and fake, we have eons to go before we get anywhereWhat about Pragya? Instead of pleading with him and making him promise, " Fuggy wala", could she just tell him, get the hell out of there, otherwise you could be really barbecued😈? Is he a child not to understand the consequences of electricity passing through water? How does knowing this information damage his fragile psyche? BTW, is his psyche still fragile?I am so confused guys.

Where are Purab, Disha and Daadi? All incapacitated from their respective injuries? I wonder how long they will keep nursing Disha's injury. If only we all have that luxury😲of not having to anything for at least half a day😲

It is bath time for Aliya and the 🤬 as well? The 🤬is in a thigh length negligee, just gross to watch😡. Guys, do you see a parallel dynamic to Abhi, Pragya here as I do? I am telling you guys, this relationship is heading somewhere😉😈. The bickering is exactly the same as Abhi, Pragya. These two will now be used for comic sequences, it appears to me as the deadly, no nonsense villain is ruling the roost in MM☢️I am wondering if Aliya will be the one today to get the brunt of this attack with her hair standing on edge. I am hoping for Aliya's redemption guys, can we start this please?

BTW, completely my theory guys, I feel like somebody in the writers/ directors must have suffered a memorable ankle sprain to give three people living in the same house have an ankle sprain at the same time🤡I mean, how likely is that? But again, that is my idiosyncrasy for the day.

Finally, before I go, I saw the ratings skyrocketing👍🏼. I don't understand them, but I will never argue with success👏. They must be doing something right or must have favorable circumstances which are beyond my understanding. So CONGRATULATIONS guys.

That is it from me.

Before I start, GB, seems like the same things bothered both of us about yesterday's episode. Enlighten me, so Mahabharat you are referencing to is not the mythology? I agree, Aliya evokes respect with her class act unlike the other one👎🏼. Agreed again, GB, Abhi's kisi se bhi chalta hai attitude is sad after what they have gone through for the last 2 years💔.

Coming to today's episode EWWW... Abhi in the short robe strutting in front of Daasi👎🏼☢️. Sorry guys, can't get past that imagery to give coherent thought to anything else. Here goes:

Episode opened with Simonica having loud monologues wanting to see Abhi die and Pragya mourning his death just like she did. Pragya confides in her that there is any attempt on Abhi in the house. Mrs. Genius, wonders that whoever is attempting to kill him now is in the house🤔Now who could that be, she asks the person who just was brought into the house and coincidentally this attempt happened. I know, for all practical purposes, she should doubt the two witches as option #1-10 before she considers anyone once, but # 11 should be the new entry, right? She gets misdirected by Simonica to the outside meter room while Simonica hopes to catch the visual of Abhi getting electrocuted. All I can say is thank God she didn't enter their room to catch a glimpse of Abhi in that robe👎🏼

Abhi sitting in that short robe on the ugly red couch👎🏼😲💔. Guys, would never touch that couch with a mile long stick, I was simply too grossed out at the sight. Can't you please close the door and not have people like daasi walk in ? Simple piece of advice we keep giving our 7 year old when there are visitors in the house😲Daasi walks in on Abhi posing infront of the mirror in that shortest of the robes with no discomfort whatsoever from either side. Guys, I can't tell you how gross that was. She gave gyan to Abhi that he is made into a bewakoof by having him delay his breakfast. Another genius didn't figure out that along with him she is also starving. It is another story if she ate while Abhi is idling around with the short robe in his room. The same genius also didn't figure out that Abhi barbecue would have been ready to be served by this time had Pragya not deterred him to take his beauty bath🤢. It is terrible to watch Abhi, the hero of the show to be reduced to nothing more than a show piece ( is he ?), a complete doofus, to whom anybody could say anything and he is ready to be convinced😡💔. So the Fuggy wala promise is forgotten and he gets into the bathroom. Why make a big brouhaha guys, when this just means nothing? By the way, where did the forever promise-keeper Abhi go these days?

Pragya figured out meanwhile that the heater is electrocuted, she used her brain, turned off the switch before she unplugged the cables. 👍🏼 Good going. She is letting her mind focus which is a good thing, but going by the story, I think it will be a long time before she figures out about Simonica😳But still I will support doing something over nothing👍🏼❤️ Abhi returns to wash his face and figures out that the water is alright and so he assumes "not Pragya" had done something to do with the water supply. I am too tired by this time to figure out what he means😡🤢Absolute nonsense thought process👎🏼. This is another incident which will be behind the scenes for him like the thousands of incidents prior to this one. What is new?🥱

Now Simonica is revenging on Pragya and will be after her life because she is a hurdle to get to Abhi. Again, what is new? Pragya, once again is the new target😡😔just like always. Same old wine in a new bottle, Simonica.

Overall, guys, I didn't like the sight of the hero of a prime time show strutting his stuff in a short robe with Daasi in the room. That just is quite unbecoming when I think about the decorum of a hero. I would have tolerated it probably if he was engaging in this kind of casual banter with Pragya in the room wearing that horrid thing, but this interaction simply was revolting for me👎🏼

That is it from me.

Pragz saves the fam from electrocution-yet no one will point it out. I guess these are considered "little wins" that dont count? Thanks for pointing them out Milz!

Snake got me excited. So here we go :

Nov 28:

Simonica-centric episode🤔. There are no Abhi, Pragya scenes. But I still liked parts of it.

1. I loved Simonica's show down of the 🤬. 👏👍🏼❤️. I wish she gave her left, right, center also about how she is imposing herself upon somebody else's resources, shamelessly parading in MM and that she has no right to accuse or scold Simonica who is earning her living in a direct way. But I still liked the tone Simonica used on the 🤬witch. But the shameless creature won't budge😡😡. Is Simonica indirectly hinting at the witch to do something to Pragya? So is it now going to be a double dhamaka?😡😲💔i.e: attacks on both Abhi, Pragya? I am glad Aliya is left out. Can we hope for Aliya's redemption finally?🤔

2. Not interested in seeing Purab shirtless. I just don't care to see people shirtless and exposing themselves. Period.😕 BTW, did Purab and Disha move out of MM? If so, great ! They have hope for their future and a proper married life👍🏼

3. Loved Purab today. He is my real brother❤️. He asked irritating Suhana to shut up and not butt in between him and Disha and mind her own business👏🤗And then, then, he sat and actually thought about what he is doing i.e why is he punishing Disha for something she has not done❤️🤗. What a fantastic guy 👏⭐️! This would be my kind of a hero. The hero of the show, Abhi should have been like this all along👍🏼. But alas ! what do we get? A hero who listens to everybody else, who lets people talk for him, think for him and act for him without a second thought💔🤢😭

4. As I said before, the snake got me excited😃. Like we talked before, the supposedly sophisticated killer is also going back to the basics now " kill with a snake". How do they ensure that the snake is only going to bite Abhi?😲 Why would it not bite Pragya😲? Or God forbid Robin if he is doing something in that room😲. Did they somehow hypnotize it and suggest to bite Abhi and Abhi alone???? It is really sad that a reptile is exciting me instead of the hero, heroine or the story itself. This means that there is going to be some action from an inactive Abhi. Which is waaay overdue. But if he gets bitten and unconscious, there is going to be repetition of the story yet again, Pragya crying for him to wake up, her being accused as the kaala saaya and the whole nine yards👎🏼. I am also excited to see how they are going to revive him/her , will they have antivenom available or are they going to bite off his/her skin and try to suck out the venom ( which by the way, is a big NO, NO, doesn't do anything and causes more infection ) Sorry guys, as I sound like a bad professional rejoicing and getting excited when people are getting sick, but we know NOTHING will happen to anyone.

Waiting for snake action 👏

That is it from me.

Insects and reptiles are the stars of the show today⭐️ Here we go :

Episode opened with Simonica and the snake dude's banter, completely useless. They are handling a possible king cobra ( I don't think I saw the spectacle marks on the hood ) as if they were handling a guinea pig, with no respect for the KING. Be careful guys, the snake has a mind and brain of its own and can and will decide who is going to harm it and will bite them, not any random Abhi even if you want it to👏. As opposed to the hero of our show who can't and won't know who is who💔. Sorry guys, uncalled for, but couldn't resist after his monologue today🤢👎🏼. More later. They were peeking into his box with curiosity, almost dropped the box and had no safety lock on that box😲.

Pragya sitting and wondering who the person is, planning to kill Abhi. My God, does this girl think or do anything else other than being a security officer? So she thinks of talking to him. Girlie, girlie, girlie, when will you learn? When did he actually listen to her, believe her or trust her when it really mattered? He used to listen to her with some respect during their first year of marriage even when he felt he didn't know her👍🏼. At that time he used to sense there is substance to her/ just more to her than what she appears or what she is painted as. Now, even though he claims undying love to her, he is hopeless🤢💔. Now he is just discrediting any of her feelings, his own feelings, reactions or instincts into nothingness👎🏼. So I don't know when this grid lock would end. What does it take for him to believe that this is Pragya? I can give him concrete reasons every single day why he should start believing she is Pragya, even if he wants to say her love is an act. Today's reason : she is looking through his accounts/files or whatever those were. If Munni is uneducated, she should have no clue. Anyway, who am I preaching this to😕💔 I will stick with my hero, the snake.

Guys, I don't know how most of you feel. I am just aggravated with Abhi's repeated claims that he is a pretty boy and women just throw themselves at him😡. I was OK in the beginning as that kind of attitude helped establish his pompous nature and he used that in context. But now, he is made to use this just too often and it is demeaning to me. Pretty boys may be good to look at for the first time, second time, may be 10 times, but if their brain and heart won't catch up with that prettiness, there is nothing that is holding my interest😳. I know I shouldn't take it personally, but still I don't like it.

OK, now on to the butterfly/ cockroach. Is it a cockroach, is it a butterfly? Why isn't there any pest control in that posh RS house? He says, his Pragya would have been afraid of a cockroach. Well, Mr. Genius forgot that just a few days ago, Pragya was terrified at the mention of cockroach and he didn't think vice versa then. Genius should also know that fear can be feigned, in case he didn't😳. Now, this is how we differentiate between real and fake, guys, we are sitting here for eons before anything meaningful happens. OK, brother, this is not your Pragya, but where is your Pragya?

He left the room because he is afraid that she is going to come and touch him????😲I didn't really get it, is that the reason? If that is so, I am really proud of Abhi. I hope he keeps up his conviction not to be touched by anybody other than his wife👍🏼 I don't have the stomach to re-watch the yucky scenes with the 🤬 witch yet again. Man, stick to this principle or usool or whatever you want to call it now👍🏼I like it.

His monologues cracked me up and had me hopping mad at the same time. He called himself a bewakoof, a stupid ( or idiot, I honestly don't remember ). Writers, are you guys serious😲😡You are making Abhi call himself all these names? He wonders why he isn't as clever as Pragya. I think I made my opinion clear once before as to why this is so. HIs constitution is the problem, his gene pool comes from a stupid daadi and Pragya's from a worldly RS Daadi❤️⭐️There is a difference, right ?

In the same breath, he says to himself that Aliya and the 🤬are right about Pragya/ Munni. We get it brother, they are the noblest, most sincere , most truthful, most trustworthy, selfless, altruistic, superlative human beings who are your saviors, your close confidantes, your well wishers who have nothing to do with attempts on your wife's life which costed you, your memory nor dothey have anything to do with your wife getting shot and her disappearance till now😡💔👎🏼. I am mad😡. He will be seen going back to the witches very soon, I won't rule out more yuckiness with 🤬in order to teach a lesson to Pragya/Munni or whatever he wants to call her😡👎🏼💔. For the record, I don't like the name Munni👎🏼

I think I better stick to my snake. Now, that is a very pretty, docile looking snake. He is even lifting his hood up every time somebody wants to look at him👍🏼. Hard to say that this guy is dangerous, although I won't doubt it for a second. Need to respect him👏

Still waiting for snake action

That is it from me.
