I would've said the same if I had brought my brains to this episode. I had prepared myself that a 0 rating must now be the new 10. So my 2/10 is on that renewed scale.
Why was everything so rushed up? Is it only me who felt the episode was complete cold and boring. The characters liked any emotions for anyone at all.
No, it's definitely not just you. When I said I almost teared up, it was precisely because of how cold all the characters were, and how dull the episode was. Are these the same characters I fell in love with, is this the same show that promotes juzzbaat? My eyes just couldn't believe it.
It hurts to state but I didn't feel anything when Anubhav was shot dead by Karishma. No feeling of hurt, anger or sympathy was felt by me because the scene lacked any emotions at all.
I didn't either, because neither anubhav or karishma emoted anything. One bullet, he fell and that's it, no aftermath. Why did they even bother with a dramatic top-down shot, there was nothing we could relate to about this dead man lying there.
How can Karishma move on without sparing a glance at Anubhav's lifeless body lying on floor.
It was only in hindsight, once the scene shifted to the hospital, that I realized how coldly karishma reacted. Sure she fired on instinct seeing anubhav with the gun. But after the realization that he's dead, he was your brother, he was your chachi's son, he became a traitor and did so wrong... Yukti's words in the latest interview are ringing in my head 'you have to move on after someone betrays you'. Yes eventually, but I can't believe writers really did make karishma move on within seconds.
Then coming to hospital scene. What the hell did they show? When Karishma revealed that Urmilla might actually be Haseena, why did MPT members lack any reaction, not even shock. Forget about being happy or hurt, they weren't even shocked. It seemed as if it didn't matter at all.
And they also didn't have any reaction on Anubhav's death. At least I expected something from Pushpa Ji to console Karishma. Why were character so emotionless towards Anubhav, Hassena and Karishma. The lack of concern did bother me.
Is Karishma that dumb that she isn't able to recognize HM even now. How can a streets side vendor operate a gun with so much of perfection? RIP logic!
I was numb through this all, probably because the realization hit me right then. That they will forcefully continue the urmila track as if nothing changed. In that case, of course all emotion and logic have to be covered up. They will talk about facts and be ignorant about it in the very next second, because any thinking means progress means resolution. And we're in a dragfest. More than bothered, I was disappointed that writers sacrificed such good characters just to stretch the plot.
And forced comedy from Cheetoshpa and that doctor just irritated me more.
These scenes made me smile, only because I had joked about some nonsense like this happening right before the episode. It was a smile of passive aggression towards the makers, like really hey, you're really resorting to this, brilliant.
The only light-hearted scene I found was scene between DSP and Haseena when he was trying to make her recognize me.
Yea, this was the only grace, and forced me to smile with sadness. Bechaare kitni koshishein kar rahe hai humein hasaane ki with the memory loss track. But phir bhi, yeh bakwaas band karo jaldi.
Today's episode was utter disappointment and I did not have ounce of emotions for any characters at all. Might be because characters themselves lacked it.
Definitely.
And this Ekta's theory of memory loss is adding fuel to fire. Why can't they just bring HM back and end all this. Are they going to drag for next year?
Why does it feel like actors really want this to drag because they are enjoying urmila so much. I know they don't have a say ultimately, but seems their prayers are being answered more than ours.
