*takes deep breath*
*looks at the clock and registers it reading 1:30 a.m.*
*takes another deep breath*
*struggles for words*
I don't know where to start, what to say or how much... If I've ever had to undergo a sensory overload due to LTL, this is it. I mean... Oh. My. God. If this week was considered magnificent in itself, I'm not even sure if that would be doing it justice.
I mean, it's freaking 1:30 a.m. and I have work tomorrow morning. But I CANNOT go to bed. I cannot close my eyes and sleep. I cannot even move. I am just - stunned.
The level of emotional overload because of this show is unparalleled for me and quite honestly absolutely new to me.
I know I have work. I know I have a ton load of application related paperwork to do. I know I have a busy weekend and an even busy day tomorrow. And I know I'm exhausted.
I don't care! I don't care! I DON'T CARE!
*takes deep breath*
I don't care about anything right now because this show has just made me revolt against all my sensibilities. It was brilliant!!
So here's what I've decided. I'm going to say whatever little I can right now (hence the title "Something remotely like a TIN...") and then I might come back add more to this post throughout the weekend. But that's just tentative. For now, here are whatever comes to my mind in no particular order.
- When Nakku looks at the "water body" off the road it looked like it was a river flowing under the "bridge" she was standing on. And the first thing that crossed my mind was "Is she going to dive in there off the bridge so that her color can wash off by the time Dutta comes to the edge to look for her?!"... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
- Dutta's still wearing Nakku's duppatta on his hand?! I love whoever is in charge of continuity in this show. They've never messed up on the big, important stuff and I could hug them for it!
- LMAO! Why does Sudarshan look so "pissed off" the entire time Aayi Sahib is talking to Dutta and then later when she's talking to Babi and telling her that she can cook for Dutta? I mean at least Kala was shocked, repulsed or angry appropriately. That guy just looked pissed off regardless of the dialogue - like the fact that they found Dutta and Nakku together was enough to send him over the edge. I think Jaz needs to remind him k he has a wife AND a mistress! He should leave Dutta for Nakku and maybe Baji! 🤣
- Did anyone else notice Nakku loose her footing when Dutta told her that he didn't know about his destination but she'd definitely found hers? As a reply to her "manzil" dialogue? Like the fact that he'd think that her destination was somewhere away from him on her choice knocked the wind out of her? Like that was such unfathomable an idea that she literally lost her balance? *sigh* I held my breath for that one too..
- Dutta and Nakku were totally having a "semi-pis*ing contest" right in the beginning of the Monday episode - with him telling her that her "manzil" was here and her telling him that it really was his "manzil". *sigh* But even that was romantic and sensitive (at least to me.. I wish I could spend more time explaining why but I need to get as much of it out of my system as I can before I collapse.. 😳)! *sigh* HOW do these two do it!?
- When Kala handed her mithai to Kishore I honestly felt my heart go a little warm. I mean, here are two people who cannot stand each other as far as worldly appearances go, yet when she had to discard what she edible thing she had in her hand she did the one thing EVERY wife does! She handed it to her husband.. *sigh* 😆
- Excuse me while I die laughing... WHAT the hell was that when all the guards lifted up Dutta in a bhangra pose?! I mean if I'm not mistaken this is not a Barat!! The man is exhausted and he's in imminent danger still - in case they forgot he is still in the middle of no where away from home. But instead of getting him to safety and to relax, they perch him up in that uncomfortable position and bounce him around?!?! *dies laughing* 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
- Did anyone else feel that when Dutta was looking at Nakku on Tuesday while Baji expressed his delight at finding him alive, he was trying to hold on to the "Jungle" and the moment he'd had there. As if he was trying really hard not to lose what he'd just found lest it be just a by product of his stay in the Jungle (Yes, this jungle gets to be a proper noun in itself! Hence, the "Jungle"). Like he felt that if he lost his concentration, that if he didn't try hard enough he'd lose this new-found sensibility he'd just found to the harshness of the real world. *sigh* Dutta.. *awed muh*
- Alright.. Maybe I am just weird. But was that a white SUV I saw behind the tattered Jeep? And are you really telling me that while the two people that just spend three days in the Jungle dodging bullets get to sit in the back of a topless and UNCOMFORTABLE jeep, the useless body guards got to stuff themselves in the SUV the entire way?! *jaw drops* Are you kidding me?!?!? SERIOUSLY??!!?!? Dutta and Nakku spend the entire night (and drive) in that congested space with no leg room and no room - not even enough space to lie down - while the useless bodyguards where stuffed in the SUV and "sleeping" if Baji's comment to wake them up later was any indication?! REALLY!?!? *dies laughing* 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
- Am I going to be lynched if I tell you that I don't find Aayi Sahib weird or evil? That I find her to be a mother and nothing more or less..? *slowly walks towards the exit without alarming anyone* 🤣
- Kishore and Kala face off again! This time in front of Aayi Sahib - the only person that can push Kala's button so is Kishore and the only person who can counter Kishore's righteousness is Kala. Have I mentioned I love this couple!
- Umm.. So.. I am not a very fashionable person. I sort of have a crappy fashion sense, if you ask me. But WHAT in the heck is that monstrosity that Kala's trying to pass off as earrings?! I've seen these at Walmart here I think. They were not appealing on the rack and now they look even more hideous. Is her fashion designer taking drugs?! Something is not right! I like the lack of necklaces - makes her look simpler. But I dislike these giant leaf shaped earrings. Find her plain hoops or something instead. Gah!
- Dutta had realized that he cared for Nakku as soon as he asked her to step onto the Jeep with him and as he brought her tea. But he was hesitant - like he wasn't sure there was anything that could be changed as a result of it - like he didn't know if he could stop her to stay with him as a result of this. But I believe this is where Anna's come in! Having "lost" her once is going to put things in perspective for him - if he wants her around he WILL keep her around. No more confusion, no more hesitation! At least that's what I feel!
- Dutta hands Nakku the tea - Nakku gets surprised at his thoughtfulness momentarily but then takes the tea. Dutta notices she is not drinking it and he realizes she won't. He drinks and millisecond later her glass touches her lips too. *takes deep breath* *sigh* I LOVE this couple. I cannot even begin to explain the beauty of this scene!
- Ganpat being Ganpat asks for HIS money back - the money HE borrowed in Dutta's name?! LMAO! I am not going to lie - I totally yelled "YOUR MONEY?! In what world!?" at my screen when he said he wanted Aayi Sahib to pay him his 50,000 rupees. 🤣🤣
- Anna messing around with Dutta?! That was so VICIOUS and so Malesh Anna at the same time! He's a brilliant character! Dutta came into his home after tricking him and killed his men. Anna tricked Dutta and took his "home" with him - now Dutta's expected to come into Anna's home AGAIN and get HIS home back! *sigh* I apologize if this makes no sense - I'd try and explain but I'm on a time crunch here.. But for those of you that can maybe understand my random bak bak, HOW FREAKING BRILLIANT IS THIS!!! *sigh* I LOVE this show! The intricate way the entire plot ties in together leaves me speechless!
- You know, I have to admit. I love how this show isn't afraid of using cameo roles and keeping them just that - as cameos! Except for Supriya's and Ravi's extended cameos due to the IPL every other cameo hasn't been stretched and it has served only it's purpose without taking up any extra drag space. Morey did what he was supposed to and got Nakku to Dutta. Then Supriya and Ravi pushed Dutta away from Nakku. Anna made him territorial and Jagtap made him realize that Nakku fell into the group of things/people he was territorial about. And now Anna's wife is going to definitely serve a purpose too. They understand the idea of not overdoing a concept - they don't mess around with the show's story or track for TRPs. They keep it logical and that's what makes the show brilliant. In my opinion that is..
- LMAO! Is it weird that I can recognize Anna from his milky white shoes..? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
- Why is it that when all the guards fell down, they didn't fall over each other despite of being so close? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
- Dutta's cry at the very end - Oh. My. God. Enough said.
- I am not a sadist - really, I am not. But Dutta "pulling out" Anna's "intestines"? This is one massacre I'm not missing for the world! 🤣
OMG! This feels so much better - I know it isn't nearly as explanatory as most TINs and probably doesn't even make much sense to anyone else except me - but I needed to get it out of my system so I could sleep. I have a ton of work to do tomorrow and watching all these shows in one go was almost a suicidal act - one I'd probably do again in a heart beat though.. 🤣🤣
Thanks for listening to/reading my bak bak.. I apologize for any nervous breakdowns suffered in the process.. *somber muh*
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
