Yes, there is a reason for sure. I like to see strong female protagonists, and to me this is a representation of how much of Dutta she has in her. How much of his influence has rubbed on her, to the extent that she is willing to go that "Don" extent to prove her faith. At the same time, they continue showing that she is also the god fearing pativrata, that she always has been.
Her groW*H has been as nice to see as Dutta's so I am not going to complain.

Yeah true...I know as an audience we know that Nakku's character has this innocence in her and the way she wins her battles with kala with her faith and love towards D.....but I always felt that the CV's have also showed the "powerful woman" side of Nakku as well when need be.....

[physically]...... the scene where she is having a cat fight with Supriya 😆 😆 thinking she was there to harm Dutta and then Nakku and Babi attacking Suds 👍🏼 😆 😆 😆......even though these scenes had a humorous feel to them, the creatives still got the idea of Nakku being a powerful woman across in a light-hearted way

[mentally]..... the scene where Nakku goes to bring Dutta back after he finds out about his father, the way she tells him on his face with the powerful attitude (totally loved that scene) and also the Mangalsutra return scene (loved the anger and attitude she had)......but now they have shown this "powerful woman" avatar in a more serious fashion.....i guess that's why some of us may not be liking it are not able to click with it........I think it's just a temp. thing to build on to a better storyline hopefully (fingers crossed)....trying to stay positive 😊

What in the world is wrong with those villagers? Why are they destroying their own habitat and businesses because Dutta is apparently dead? But I guess it's not called mob mentality for nothing...disgusting behaviour. Did anyone else see that random yellow doodh-wala standing in the middle of the road while everyone else was phela-ing aafaat? 🤣

They could have (and should have) done without her putting them on her own person and using them though...Nakku has enough eminence on her own and through the weight of her words and honesty (which are her biggest strengths) that she should be able to make the mob 'see' without trying to take Dutta's 'bhaes'...Nakku is Nakku and she is Nakku because she's not Dutta. To become his wife in the most deserving form, she does not need to become little Dutta and she does not need people to see her that way either.

Well said👏👏👏 Nakku is Nakku and Dutta is Dutta....they both have their own unique qualities that make them special and it should stay that way....I really don't see the need for Nakku to go about being "mini-Dutta" for whatever reason....doesn't cut it with me either.....Nakku has so much strength in her character by herself....why doesn't she use THAT instead if she is oh so interested in giving bhaashans to the villagers? Chalo maybeeeeee I'll even digest her putting on Dutta's vest....but for god's sake his GUN??!!!😕 Keep Nakku AWAY from guns, man....JUST doesn't work!😆

Finally...someone defends D's Nakku 😊
I thought I was the only crazy one who kinda enjoyed some bits and pieces of Nakku's new avatar. I really liked D's flashbacks for sure 😳 😳 .... maybe there is a reason behind this Dongiri of Nakku and her stepping into D's shoes for some time.....I know we as an audience have really high expectations from LTL but I guess we just have to wait it out and see how the story progresses (there is a positive reason behind everything imo)....I am sure our patience will pay off .....and as far as the phone call is concerned this is my prediction...Nakku comes home, AS yells at her....Kala tonts her some more and Nakku remembers about the village dange and she feels helpless and goes to D's room for strength and then as Khushi predicted....BANG - the phone call @ night in private 😉

I just say, we agree to disagree here. Naku was never shown to be meek in any way, she is very strong, and is still the only person who can stand up to Dutta himself (not Baaji, not AS even). So if she can stand up to Dutta, she can do anything to shut these people up. And to defend her actions a little more, she also does say, that she is nothing with Dutta, she is doing this only because she has his support and her existence without him is nothing. As for the gun, Dutta himself taught her,pushed her into weilding one at a time when she didnt want to - hell she even hit her hands against the wall bleeding because she held a gun and shot with it - so in this case when she has so much against her, villagers believing her hubby is dead, she has every reason to weild it, and she did it well.

AS...I don't understand this woman....really...She came to know that her son is dead and all she does is get mad at Nakku for hiding it from her...Will that be the first reaction of any mother who comes to know that her son is dead? Or is she screaming for Nakku so that she can come again and tell her that Dutta is alive?? There better be some other reason...

You know, if they wanted to have her make an impact through bhaashans, it could actually have turned out to be much more striking and believable because Nakku does have that way with her simplistic words, woh baatein 'jo badal deti hain' while seeming so basic yet being deep. Even the dialogues in today's scene...the way those people got convinced...it wasn't right. It could have been made a tag-team effort between Nakku and Baaji...Baaji controls and gets them to listen, convinces them...and Nakku delivers the punch with her belief and faith, by asking for their trust and support...some deep, heartfelt writing here could have instilled the faith in not only the mob, but even the viewers and Nakku/Baaji themselves...it could have been a moment of immense trust and belief actually...it didn't end up being one because of the half-baked, unconvincing scenario and writing though :(

It's sad, Fatty....that basically they've cemented the belief that Baaji is just supposed to be a sidekick....first to Dutta and now to Nakku....does he not have ANY identity and power himself as being Dutta's foremost lieutenant? Do the ppl of Patilwaadi have no respect or regard for Baaji? Only NAKKU the great can get through to them with her supposedly magically powerful aura? WHY does Baaji just stand aside and WATCH Nakku like some kind of blind bhakt? He's HANDING her guns and just sitting there watching her meekly?....he's expecting THAT tiny woman to stop riots! Amazing! And we are supposed to shut our brains and just swallow this....amazing artistic liberty....even by LTL standards😆😆.....Basically with Dutta's supposed "death", Baaji has been relegated to being NAKKU'S subordinate when in fact it should have been both of them AT PAR as equals trying to talk to everyone and get through to them....maybe it is my misinterpretation of Baaji's character then that I expected more from him.....basically what they are showing us is that even Nakku has more balls than Baaji😆😆

Well I watched the episode and 3 things got me worked up:
a) Dutta's frustration at no one picking up- man I felt for him! He just wants to get the message across to Naku thats he's alive but there's so much hungama going on 😔
b) Kala's declaration to AS that Dutta died in a car accident- I hate her character so much! To rub salt in the wounds, she puts the whole blame on Naku for keeping mum!
c) Baji's lack of dialogues and his dumbing down- he was supposed to show everyone - particularly Suds- the true meaning of 'the right hand man.' As Dutta's friend, I am not liking the fact that is being conveyed as a follower, just abiding by Naku's orders. His role it seems is that of the messenger. There is so much more. Yes I agree with Make Believe that it should be a partnership thing.

The whole thing with Naku becoming Dutta I am a little confuzzled about. Ok, we got to look at the fundamentals here. The chaos created by that 1 news was truly mad! Based on that she has no choice but to don his look and demeanour ish. It's hard to digest, even I was sort of feeling a little blah about it while watching the dressing up scene. She knows it's not her place to be doing things like that but the fb of Dutta reminding her of making sure the people don't experience a lack of things, just made her take the step. She also says that without him she has no astitva. So lets just go along with it, it won't be a permanent thing- she's a temp Dutta guys!

When she first pulled out the gun, I was like 😲, but stomached that too! I did not like the fact she slapped that guy but the revelation of him being paid me think. She has to ensure that there is peace instilled in the village. Things were majorly out of control before her entry! Well done Naku for slapping him! Kudiyon ka ha zamana! But please dear, no more gun uthaying when D is back!

Naku although exteriorly very calm, naive and meek like, has always been a strong woman inside. We have seen that she has been there trying to sniff the culprit out in a few tracks. She is also Babi's daughter lol! So persoanlly, average episode but at least it's out of the way. Looking forward to better things!
