Mina Show - Reactions Apr 26/18 (Ep 1086)

Hello guys,

I am deeply disappointed and unhappy today. I realize now I was overcomplicating it and I should have remembered, the simplest answer is usually the right one. Of course it would turn out that Kiara is AbhiGya's child; any other situation would be quite convoluted. Silly of me to hope for something better!!

So far I feel we don't have a good enough reason for Pragya not to have tried telling Abhi about Kiara. Even if she decided it would be safer for her child to be away from someone with unstable and violent tendencies, just never telling him wasn't her only choice. For her own and Kiara's protection, she should have made sure that door was firmly closed. But far from anything like that, what we're shown is that she still adores and misses him, and she's clinging to their child as consolation for his loss.

That is a pretty hopeless way to be a parent.

But anyway! I tend to be far less talkative when I am unhappy, so I may not be doing these as regularly as I might have liked. Thanks for joining me once more, here it goes :)

Is this a discussion post?
Every post on the forum is a discussion post but please keep in mind that what I'm posting here are instant reactions, not deeply reasoned thoughts. I'm not looking to start a debate, just sharing my reactions.

SO WHEN COULD THIS POSSIBLY HAVE HAPPENED, EH?

It's no secret to anyone who knows me that I haaate serial heroine sharmana, so yeah, Pragya pretending not to understand the innuendo of waking him does nothing but annoyyy meee.

I spent a lot time trying to figure out if gajar ka halwa, firni and rogan are supposed to specifically reference anything. I have come to no conclusions. But overall they actually did a startlingly good job at conveying the sense of 'dirty talk' without actually saying anything explicit? In fact that whole dream felt way too steamy for family TV viewing, so...uh, thanks, I guess. Things I never thought I'd see!

Abhi's voice when he thinks Pragya is the one who floated the feather! Exquisite blend of anguish and hope. A+ Shabz. At least he's getting stuff to actually do in this track, hah.

This glasses scene broke my flipping heart. Any doubt I would like to cherish about this child being AbhiGya's, was made impossible by this explicit paralleling of Kiara and Abhi.

Oh and I don't like Pragya's new glasses.

Sriti is freaking gorgeous in this scene though, the Kiara portion particularly - and her face is so. incredibly. expressive!

This king-pragya contract is so weird , crossing professional boundaries... Can a girl ask her boss to be a fake dad to the kid , I dunno? Moreover what is need of a Papa Ka naam specially when she is living in London with no connection to her traditional family. Did pragya sign any contract with king (since she is still abhi's wife can she do that) or is it just one those things where she trusts king to do the right thing? Moreover what is use of this husband -wife thing ,when Mr.king can't keep in his pants ? what kind of impression will it make on kiara's mind when her papa isn't faithful to mummy ? A six year old who knows her dad drinks? 😕This is so contrived.

Abhi dreaming about pragya while being with Tanu is distateful , and he is aware that pragya is in his heart as highlighted by the dialogue alu heard. Unless Tanu forced him to marry her which doesn't seem to be the case, this is meh. He really can't make up his mind, can he? When with pragya , he wanted Tanu and now with Tanu, he wants pragya. GROW UP ABHI!!!

Dasi giving all those lectures, seems like fan service at this point. She did raise some good points but still seems like weird. Like has she been continuously giving him these lectures for 7 years..who cares.

Pragya isn't some use and throw toy whose sole purpose is to validate abhi's existence...dasi ask your boy to just move on from Tanu instead .

Pragya and her daughter are sweethearts. Such a darling child. CVS gave her exactly same dialogues to reinforce the idea that she is abhi's daughter, not so subtle are they? That chasma frame doesn't suit Sriti's face... Old one was better. Is this chasma some kind of a metaphor, will the old one make a comeback when pragya returns to MM 2.0?
