Alex, felt the need to give you my personal opinion or understanding as to what went wrong.. Actually thats a million dollar question n only colors channel bosses can answer 😃Atleast what we know or were made to know was firstly Mishal left as his contract came to an end and he had extended his contract thrice b4 quitting so that the makers of the show could decide the further course of action. Strangely rumours began floating even b4 he quit about his alleged misbehaviour or attitude problems on the sets of laagi etc etc.. which shocked not just the viewers but Mishal himself n many of his co actors n laagi technicians staff including Basically for Mishal it became impossible to continue any further even if he wanted.

Worse was the high handedness of the people at the helm of the channel n the manner the changes was forced. Instead of addressing the issue amicably n continuing with the show in its original form they chose to change n chop. They first bring Aadesh as digu with a twist in the storyline. The twist was difficult to digest as the same character digu who was responsible for the vanishing of the most popular character Dutta was glorified. When that failed to garner trps they brought back Dutta with shabbir.

But both the actor n the storyline failed to make any impact.

When the USP of the show the character of Dutta was changed beyond recognition, the storyline tampered on adhoc basis naturally any number of changes n twists, additions deletions, plots n subplots failed to save the ill fated show there upon.

Unfortunately the audiences who mattered the most were left in the lurch. We were robbed of the logical culmination to a perfectly scripted show.

Episode ~55

Guest Room

Episode starts from the point where Supriya urges Ravi to leave.. Kala puzzled stops, takes in the conversation, plus manages to confirm that it is without a doubt the body guard Ravi ,that Supriya is having a heart to heart with..Kala is literally gobsmacked.. as Supriya pleads, Ravi why have you come here?.. a stressed Ravi argues, Supriya how can I leave? your father.. and she interrupts , you should have refused my babaa.. and he reiterates, Supriya I wanted to see you for the last time.. shouldn't I have done this much for my Supriya ?..outside a fascinated Kala muses, Supriya vahini and this body guard... hmmm.. seems like they are quite close.. Supriya cries, what difference does it make Ravi ? you won't be able to tolerate it.. I'll compromise with my fate.. if you stay before me , then I'll become weak.. Kala gives a sarcastic smile.. seeing others in pain and misery gives her some kind of a kick.. Ravi comes up to Supriya and begs , don't ask me to leave Supriya! she rejects his arms and cries, then what should I do? you weren't present in the village when the proposal came... the happiness on Aye and babaa's faces, I saw! didn't know what to say?I couldn't stop them!.. I was frightened as soon as I heard it was Bhau!.. she weeps and Ravi pulls her to his chest and closes his arms around her to console her. Kala peeps and has her tongue in her cheek.. at the close proximity between Supriya and Ravi .. she thinks I don't believe this.. another new twist.. a new story, Supriya loves Ravi.. and Bhau loves Supriya .. and the servants daughter,loves Bhau, hummm.. love triangle, I think this is what one calls a love triangle.. umm Supriya, you have made things so much easier for me , now you watch! It'll is my responsibility to get married to Ravi.. wow Kalavati what luck you have, being at the right place at the right time.. let me tell those two dimwits.. actually no.. hold on Kala muses, if Supriya herself is going to leave Dutta, which is exactly what I want .. then now no more plans and conspiracies have to be hatched.. judges Kala ..

Inside Ravi tells Supriya , don't do anything hasty, he is the Bhau .. Bhau .. Supriya recalls .. FB, Aye sahib says once you wear the ancestral bangles, then the girl belongs to this household.. child these ornaments will remind you that you have become part of Nagesh Rao's family...Dutta ShreeRam Patil's wife! alarmed Supriya stands up and cries, each day is getting closer to the wedding, and you are telling me not to be rash! Ravi calms Supriya and explains, Supriya please do you trust my love? do you? then.. now listen carefully to what I am about to tell you.. at the moment the atmosphere is very volatile.. to enrage Bhau now , is like putting your hand in a beehive!.. Supriya cries, as she looks around, Ravi don't tell me anything! just take me away from this place!.. Kala has a smirk on her face.. after she hears Supriya's desperation to flee from Bhau and his habitat!.. but Ravi puts out Kala's fire by saying in affirmative to Supriya .. no yet! Supriya not right now! if we get caught now , we can never be together.. Supriya argues, then what am I supposed to do?, Ravi advises her, you need to win every one's trust!.. outside Kala smiles tongue in cheek.. and Ravi continues, you need to win every member's trust in this house.. Supriya walks away confused, and how am I supposed to do that?.. Ravi I don't even wish to talk to anyone here.. she sobs... and Ravi walks up behind her and says emphatically , Supriya you need to win Bhau's heart! convince him that you love him!, Supriya looks terrified by the idea .. and Ravi continues, once this security is loosened, we will surely run away from here! I assure you.. Supriya dismisses the idea, what are you saying Ravi ? I only love you.. how could I with Bhau.!yuck!I hate the very sound of his very name! the truth is even his hands smell of blood! [Grrr saying that about Dutta's slender hands!] when he comes in front of me I loathe him! Ravi comes to her side and convinces her.. this is the only way! won't you do this much for our love?. Kala rattles at the word love.. vahini Sahib only the foolish fall in love ! but she muses, you are making my work easier, so why shouldn't I help you, I'll surely help you. ..then you'll understand both good and evil, and slowly you'll understand Kalavati as well... and smug as a bug she turns and leaves..

Out house

End of the day Naku as par usual stands beside the window looking out.. Ganpat arrives, singing songs it's clear he is tipsy.. under his shirt to the side is a bulge.. his singing gives both Babi and Naku the message what state he is likely to be in... humming he sits on the chair and gives his wife a sided look, before he takes out a large bottle of alcohol, from his side.

Nothing goes past Babi, and she yells, hey Ganpat where did you get the bottle from? Naku turns from the window and looks at her father annoyed. Ganpat rolls his eyes and Babi says, I know you stole it from Bhau's bar, didn't you? you thief! and he goes, hey don't talk like a complete idiot! I work hard ! I don't steal! and what do you think that Bhau is an angel? he's not! but a robber! There's no difference between him and Morey !. Naku turns her face the other way in anger.. and Babi shouts , you can't be loyal to any one! don't look at Bhau's job look at his character! he does so much for poor people like us, how can you compare Bhau with that sick Morey !. Ganpat argues, hey I've seen the world very closely , you know! don't talk to me !..seems that when Ganpat gets drunk nowadays he comes out with same parrot fashion comparison between Morey and Bhau !.. Ganpat quotes the proverbial saying, one reaps what one sows! and he fills up his glass.Babi comes towards him angrily .. while he carries on.. didn't you see what happened today! I can tell you this marriage isn't going to happen! 100 %. will not happen! Babi shouts back at him, you have such a bad tongue saying negative things. Naku looks alarmed by her father's prediction .

But Ganpat laughs, it's not that ,it's Bhau's luck that is bad. Naku chides him , babaa ! Sethji is asleep and he has school tomorrow. Ganpat as usual gets weary of Naku.. so he changes his tune, you know I come here to relax ,after work! but you people don't seem to get that.. and he heads towards the bed...and yells talking to women is simply a waste of time! all you do is yap and bicker ..and he flops at the edge of the bed where Sethji sleeps.. the noise wakes him up .. whose there? he yells half asleep , and Ganpat tells him, it's me! go back to sleep. Babi argues , me ! me! who are you any way? and he replies.. I'll tell you some other time!..Babi loses her temper , right now ! you move out of here! and he says to her , completely drunk, let me go out of my way! and he leaves muttering you spoiled my mood , just one minute...and returns for his glass...and starts bowing his head to Babi,I bow to you oh goddess he and reverses out of the room... what men in this house do under the influence of alcohol.. Dutta bust Naku's forehead! and Ganpat talks gobbledegook !

Babi shuts the door once her drunken husband leaves. She calls Naku , let's go to sleep. Naku says yes.. and briefly pauses, and then pinches the top of her hand... distressed she decides, no! no more dreaming! She looks at the giant teddy sitting on the chair and mutely walks past it.. things are pretty definite between Saab and Supriya there is no pointing of thinking about him.. also I suspect.. Naku has decided to suppress her sentiments for him.. for now she sees her main task is to ensure she gets them together..

Kala's room

Leela paces impatiently up and down in Kala 's room..the door eventually opens and in swans Kala looking very complacent, and she gives Leela a scintillating smile... both sisters move in towards each other , and Leela says, Tai where have you been , I've looked everywhere for you.. and we promised each other that we would share , everything we find out in this house. She probes Kala , but Kala evades the subject with her usual charm.. oh yes.. Leela , you now I am feeling very sleepy...it feels like I haven't slept in ages ... I suggest you too go to sleep as well, hummm , she says with a little pat on Leela 's cheek...and walks to her bed. Leela watches her move to the bed, and confused says, what's happened to her? sometime back she was dying to have Bhau's marriage stopped..and now? I'll see for how long she will conceal it from me...muses Leela

Dutta's Den

New day begins at Patil Nivas. Naku comes up the wooden stairs to Dutta's room with a dusting cloth. Ummm.. ok.. Dutta's bare back revealed.. he's busy shoving his arm in his steel blue pathiani..as he wrestles to get his other arm in, his athletic back is on show.. by the time Naku walks in, he has pushed his head in through the collar opening and is pulling his shirt to fit his tall lean body. An embarrassed Naku briskly turns her whole body the other way.. with a quick spin he turns and looks at her distant figure with narrowed eyes probably wondering how much has she seen...she walks away.. and he calls, Naku !.. without turning to face him him she says yes.. and she fumbles.. he asks , what's happened? Saab , Aye Sahib asked me to come up and clean your room.. she says with lowered eyes.. Naku is avoiding even looking at him... Dutta looks down and then nods, ok do it, remember one thing, don't disturb my things .ok?.. Naku keeps her eyes lowered , and says ok Saab.. now it suddenly occurred to me is she trying to be quiet in keeping with what he said I like talking to you , but when you talk less..? he turns from her and does what he was meant to do.. she now looks up with her big bold eyes, and sees the gun on his bedside table, and an open brief case loaded with money on the edge of his bed. Naku blinks her eyes. Dutta comes towards her with his phone in hand.. her eye falls on his collar buttons, his hairy chest is evident. After some thought she says Saab and he looks quizzically at her , one eyebrow raised.. haan, for a second she goes quiet , and he says, now say something and looks at her wondering when she was going to say what it is.. , and she says, one of your buttons is missing.. he looks down at his open neck and his mouth gapes in a bit of quandary.. she offers, I'll fix it Saab, and he looks at her and says, you know how to fix it?.. she says yes , and after a brief thought with hooded eyes, he goes, ok, the needle and thread is in the cupboard.. wow I am impressed his lordship has a sewing box.. but why? a man shooting off pistols would having anything to do with haberdashery?..

He moves aside, what a gentleman.. and let's her get to his wardrobe. She gets it and turns around to look at him.. he is totally immersed in his phone. She moves past him and meticulously sets the box down on a table where he stands. He puts the receiver to his ear, with pouted lips..in this scene his pout is a real starrer.. very defined..ummmh.. eye catching.

A wholly content Naku , sits near his feet and threads the needle with her fingers, while his fingers, eyes and ears, are focussed on his business related call.. she steals a glance at him.. but he is busy.. is Dutta making the call to ease the activity she was about to undertake on him.. like making it less awkward .. stitch him.. me chuckling.. Naku stands up ready ..he turns his face to one side as she does the job.. constantly he is on the phone , eyes hooded, arm folded, attending to the phone.. while Naku hears the tunes of love vibrating in her fluttering heart.

She steals glances at him and pricks herself and startles .. he looks down at her and tells her off, you're not paying attention, got pricked?.. show me, but she says it's ok , and he growls, show me!

Miserable faced Supriya comes up the stairs with Ravi beside her.. and they hear Dutta's growl.They pause before Dutta's room and she looks around and looks at Ravi and then unwillingly goes into Dutta's room. Dutta who looks down at Naku's hand suddenly looks up at Supriya with a serious face. She continues to move forward towards Dutta and Naku ... and calls , I'll sew the button. Dutta turns his face towards her suspiciously , while Naku too looks at Supriya.. Dutta briefly looks at his phone in hand and says, it's ok! Naku 's doing it already. Supriya lowers her eyes and adamantly progresses forward anyway, and says to Naku, Nakusha you leave, I'll do it now.. Naku nods and gives the threaded needle to Supriya. Dutta just looks down at the handover.. as Supriya moves closer to Dutta and Naku , looks at her briefly and then slowly and resignedly leaves the room.. Dutta turns his face the other way, while Supriya carries on.. then he turns his face towards the door glaringly and comments, you don't really have to do all this... I know why you are doing all this? and she looks down and replies , no it's not how you think, your anger is justified,.. he gives her a hooded look, not really believing her.. he has a FB, of the time when he smashed the lampshade in her room... she looks up into his eyes and confesses, , it's just that I got unnerved. He looked down at her hands, and then asks her directly.. are you afraid of me?. she stares back at him, moves her eyes to the side.. probably Ravi who stands in the shadows. and then lowers her eyes without really replying. He moves to his bedside table and grabs his gun, shoves it towards his back, reaches for his waist coat, pulls it on, and says , that's how I am, and that's how I'll stay.. he moves to the bed, leans to close his brief case.. grabs it and stands before her with a stern face and states clearly to her.. you have to decide.. what you want...he gives her one final tough look and walks off to work.. leaving her standing alone in his room. Supriya watches his back.. episode ends.. Hamlet53 ~10.11.13

~~~~~~~~~~~

Precap: Ravi moans at her, you can't even do such a small job!.. she protests, that's it! I cannot do this anymore! either you take me away from here, or I'll poison myself! but I am definitely not! going ahead with this marriage! .. fed up he grabs her wrist, and pulls her down the corridor!

N.B ~ many thanks for your feedback on the previous WU. Ivy, warrie, bart, tammy, alex, sona, twinky.

Ivy.. loved your description of Naku.. too white, halo on her head.. so true.. and that she fails to see the insult involved in her being involved in the puja.. however it's rather faith based, as many believe that the gods, look kindly upon a person who is humble, almost with childlike simplicity and innocence that Koel Naku does have.. when coming across deceit.. it's like pay back evil with goodness.. but have to say I do understand the worth of divine wisdom, can we say Naku is blessed with her Bappa's divine wisdom, in the face of the evil trio.? Shakespeare of course talks about "fair is foul and foul is fair".. "all that glitters is naught gold"..

Warrie loved your comment about Kala ... she can't even see her own sister winning... many thanks for your feedback.. just whizzed thro'it abhi.. keep them coming..order hai...twinkie..love your siggy.. was meaning to say..

Alex I am so pleased you got to read bart's comment about your query regarding the show.. she has expressed it so objectively.. my answer would have been a volley of abuse for the channel in question...and now would you believe it, as Fassben pointed out on Akki's thread.. colours gives promos of LTL1 on Rishtey like mad. I mean really.. when it was on it was as many laagi members put it colours step child.. well old is gold. It is still highflying on Rishtey repeats.

This episode was bound to be captivating.. what with the precap.. Kala on to something juicy. But what stands out more clearly now is how all are out to get Dutta ..

Take a peek into the liaison between Ravi and Supriya. Their meeting in the beginning of the episode wants me to make me compare their meeting with Naku's and Dutta's bar meeting.. Ravi Supriya although lovers, are in conflict with each other , as to how to deal with this mess Supriya is in.. she is cracking up urging him to elope with him or else! He urges her to persist.. and conspires .. win Dutta's trust.. so more plotting.. against Dutta .

Dutta Naku in the bar scene.. although not lovers.. but they still warm to each other's company, he talks and she listens and gives him little problem solving tips.. yet in all this too is Dutta remains a tragic figure.. all conspire against him.. Ravi /Supriya, his sisters, sadly Naku too, by concealing her true appearance.

Then in the episode there's Kala, who leaves the guest room precinct with great satisfaction.. the reason being that the man she hates the most, i.e her brother Dutta! is hated by the woman he is about to marry.. the situation is furthered spiced up more to her liking, by the fact that Supriya has a lover, about whom Dutta is unaware.. sheer joy for her.

Then there is discomfort to note the degree of revulsion Supriya has for a man who is nothing short of a god both in his home and the area he resides in.. of course she goes by his trade.. makes me think.. is Supriya rebelling against his acquired, status , wealth power.. or is she simply a woman who shuns Dutta , for she loves another..

Then comes Ganpat who too is anti Dutta. He comes out with his repeated comparison between Dutta and Morey .. so over all the episode is an attack on Dutta.. all the conspiracies that are carried around his person.

However, the episode does have some moving bits..like Naku trying to convince herself she will not be dreaming about him anymore.. and then in the button scene she literally drools over him.. Dutta , telling Supriya exactly what to do with herself!.. take it or leave it baaabbby...

Koel Naku is too white a character ...with a permanent halo shinning around her. She fails to see the intent of insult when she is asked to sit for the pooja. Its a wonder that living in a chawl and fighting odds daily have left her innocence untouched...that of a one year old perhaps. Babi on the other hand (being older and wiser???) can sense the under current.
