Episode 320 Discussion: 10th July 2013

Welcome to the Episode discussion thread which we call as Viewer's and Reader's Respite. That's very apt, don't you think ? 😉. And that proves our objective.

Objective behind the thread is
  1. It helps in keeping the forum clean without much litter. People just need to fall in a habit.
  2. We can have it like breathers at first followed by analysis.
  3. It also helps like-minded souls and pals bond and gel together to drop in their thoughts for themselves as breathers and for their friends as a peep into the episode and for others to post their reviews.
  4. And those from different time-zones, who do not get to watch the episode at this time of telecast (Indian 8:30 PM), without any worry to trace or keep track of all their buddy's posts, they can come here, read with leisure and later post their analysis after watching it from their Time zones.

Note for Newcomers to this thread.
Extremist thoughts and moralizing thoughts are not welcome over this thread. It is entertainment show we are watching. The channel calls their programs as entertainment and we are watching the show. Discussions are welcome in light hearted and in realistic manner. Moral policing is not appreciated. We do not want to feel stifled into that kind of atmosphere here.

There are several other social welfare sites that are there to discuss the genuine issues. If for some reason, it is felt that social concerns have to be addressed and ethical and moral responsibility needs to be exercised for watching entertainment, then; certainly the forum is an open place to create separate ATs and build up that kind of propaganda.

Please heed to this as direct request and conditional requirement to participate in this thread. Strong words such as psychopaths unless used in show, need not be used to instigate riotous atmosphere or start sermonizing.


POINTERS for Writing/Posting of your reviews and thoughts over this EDT
  1. Do not litter the thread with chit-chat conversations. A little is permitted to have the friendly atmosphere, but when you feel like chatting more, it is desired you take your conversation with your buddies to alternate venues like chat clubs, pm mode etc.
  2. Quoting Policy: It is desired that people refrain from single, double, triple and multiple quoting of posts on a repetitive basis. They can pick out the parts that they like to quote as opposed to quoting the entire post. It is often seen that we have to scroll through the pages when all they have done is quoting and more quoting with one line response to the actual post. IF has a rule that more than three times quoting is not allowed. But nowadays as people read IF posts over phone, it is preferred that people do not quote longer posts and just extract the portions of the post that they like to respond to and if they still find it relevant to their thought process then get the entire quoted text.
  3. Regulate the font size. Keep remembering that. It is really not pleasing to see big bolded letters for no special reason.
  4. The thread becomes a mess when you give your review and do not REST for sometime until others have posted. Please understand, respites or reviews; once or twice are good for few pages...don't make a regular chat thread with your reiterating/whining/complaining on the same point. For the online readers, the thread becomes unpleasant read. There is a separate Complaints thread in Main Forum.
  5. When episodic content is emotional, take a deep breath, give a good lengthy review; that acts as your vent in one single post...and make an exit to calm down your nerves if you still are possessed by only what you've seen.

For those who cannot watch can have the Live/Written Updates.
Today's WU from : Armu4eva

Note:
  • There are various other threads all over the forum. Please check out those as well. This is just one choice out of so many.
  • Readers are encouraged to post links of other members posts which had been "delightful read" towards analysis of episodic event/s or character analysis. It becomes an easy navigation in the myriad of posts and pages and can easily be overlooked.
  • The link to present day ED thread is always provided in the previous one discussed.Those who participated in previous thread can go to my posts and check the previous thread to get access to new link.

another drag of an episode..the last 5 mins. had some good action..

RM scene was useless..their hug in the end was good, the song suggested by RK was good..otherwise i see no point of this scene...

Sultan's men disrupting the shooting..tough luck, he was already leaving for Mumbai 😆

RK not believing the news ...loved RK in the angry avtaar ...for the first time, Madhu was scared to see the gun...

just one thing abt the episode , it's neither Dips nor Sultan who published the picture, it must be Mataji Radha who handed over Sultan the proof of her husband's infidelity...just a guess...

as someone said in the MF, platinum plating is on 🥱 now that they're turned Sultan into an aadarsh beta, why can't he leave them alone and just leave from here ? 🤢

Precap, all is not well in RK land..

i'm in no mood to write a proper review, the epi. was boring...agree with Pooja in the prev. EDT, they caused enuf damage to the story and characterizations, it's not gonna be easy for them to mend it...

I am amazed , suddenly sultan turns from a person who did no give two hoots about Radha fainting now is Doing pati to her and spouting two maa dialogues ..
It make me angry at be cvs more and does not help even a bit in making him acceptable .

And mahaan mAdhu , she is scared of seeing gun in rk's hand but appear so calm when she see him in sultan or goons hands great going cvs ...

This is what I hate , they will make rk look all wrong and and platinum plate both mAdhu and sultan ..yuck

Madhu and RK patch up via songs (most therapists recommend effective communication CV's) and on the other side of the coin, Sultan dons his maha avatar and tends to his "other mother". Then the pics are published, and RK goes on a rampage. Madhu does not want him to sink as low as Sultan (this is my interpretation and no amount of logic is going to budge me from this position) wants him to stop.
The entire epi I was laughing at Dips/Sikky antics. In a way it makes sense. Chaos=no one paying attention to them, which means no threats of being thrown out of the house. Plus Dips just likes it when thinks are chaotic- the sadist in her enjoys watching other people's pain. Ahh, Dips, at least you are somewhat consistent.
Other than that, not much to say. Another hum drum epi. Par the course with MEIEJ these days.

Why are the episodes so boring? I never thought the day would come when i would say this about MBEIEJ.
I liked:
  • Sultan looking after Rji. Yes, I liked it, might as well like it, rather than crib about it. he is golden hearted after all. Hum sab paagal hain😡.
  • I liked the RM scene, except that it was wavering between romantic and intense, which did'nt really work, or gell together as a scene. It ended up being neither romantic nor intense. Just a couple having fun. 😃😊.
  • RK's rampage...all expected. He did better tod-phod than Sultan's henchmen😆
I did not like:
  • 2 minute bashing of the set...like bhai, like chamche. Dhang se thod fod bhi karna aata nahi😆
  • Dipali's expression, what was she so happy about? She of all people doesn't have any rights in the house, even more so now.
More drama expected tomorrow...

@AA- My question to u. Has madhu ever considered sultan's act of lower level. I thnk she has always supported him by helping him. So why you are thinking that madhu doesnt want rk to stoop to sultan's level its coz of her he is depicted as goldie.

Okay episode. Set up for the action tomorrow.
  • Radhaji in an unintentionally smart move prevents Sultan from seeing the photo by passing out. Providing Sultan an opportunity to give her some TLC. Yet another attempt to show Sultan really deserves the GHG moniker - him taking care of Radhaji in the night, against the backdrop of soft music. Never mind that he has been the one to bring her to this stage, but whatever. I'm pulling out yet another of my barf bags - looks like I need to place a bulk order. BTW - Dips was conveniently MIA, didn't bother to help out with Radhaji. Preferred to spend her time looking for something more comfortable to slip into.
  • Madhu-RK: Note: Madhu smiled today. Yes people, she smiled!! Hallelujah! Thank you, thank you! Both RK and Madhu determinedly moving past the issue bothering them. Sweet moments in the bedroom - the couple does look lovely together, which I would have enjoyed under other circumstances. So RK also felt the song Madhu sang was gloomy - the lines "yeh haseen raat phir ho na ho", and wanted a peppier song.
  • Cut to the morning. Madhu and RK decide to leave for home due to Radhaji's illness. Madhu helpfully tells RK that Sultan took care of Radhaji during the night. As though that will make RK feel better about Sultan. Sultan's amateurish sidekicks vandalizing the set. Ho hum. I noticed one of the sideys wore red shoes - were they the same RK wore in his Pareshan song? That's all that stood out in that boring exercise in futility.
  • The trio sees the newspaper. Najaayaz RK etc. RK in a rage, They get home. After the TV rampage, RK pulls his revolver out. Madhu keeps bleating stop it, stop it. How about saying Yeh sab sach hai RK, stop it?
  • So who sent the photograph? Dips? Sultan? Sikky? Radhaji? Or was it the butler..oops Mangesh or Patil.

The precap: RK races down with the gun. Intent on finishing this...


PS: Did anyone else feel like Dips dialogues were actually loaded (or was I just reading more into it than I should?) As in, a message seem to have been sent to us by the CVs' this is their story to tell, not ours (viewers.) No sides - RK or Sultan aka Raavan. Thoughts?

Feeling like we're sitting by for an inevitable trainwreck when it comes to the characterizations.
The last time I felt like this was when they were showing Madhu's 'sweet bonding' moments with that kid, and it was increasingly obvious that no matter how extremely RK reacted to get her back to his home and his life, the conservative mass TRP audience would feel that Madhu's behaviour had however unknowingly precipitated things and would condone her husband's reactions. The plan may have been to make the other guy look better than RK, and Madhu look good, and RK look bad. Instead it colossally backfired.
If Madhu supports another man's child or mother or whatever assorted relations out of humanity, nobility and other such elevated emotions, the only thing that's going to come through is that she's caring too much for whatever reason for some other man's kin.
Do the track-decisionmakers go into a bubble that they have no idea which country, which culture and which mass group forms the overwhelming majority of the TRP audience (which is every channel's huge and unoptional source of revenue recouping), and how that audience will react if the female lead is shown doing this sort of thing?
She can support justice against a member of her sasuraal. But she must support her husband against justice, at cost of truth if need be.
And here, they are showing her dithering about persuading her husband against his own interests, in order to make amends to a woman whose son's feelings towards Madhu may be unknown to Madhu herself but are repugnantly known to the TRP audience.
If RK's reactions get far worse than ever before in such a scenario, his feelings and reasoning will not be considered hard to understand or sympathize with.
The other guy has never had the TRP audience's empathy, sympathy or even the barest tolerance for his existence - whether they show him as a doting father, a bashful suitor, a wronged son or whatever gamut of relationships may yet be covered in track after track in these coming weeks.
But Madhu is the one whose loved character gets mass disapproval everytime this sort of ploy is used.
I minded not a whit when the attempt to have the child character speak ill of RK to influence mass audience by his 'childish innocence' instead made that character disliked on a proportionate scale.
But Madhu is half of the frigging reason I'm still stuck to this show's updates, and it's infuriating that they are trying for such a track at her expense in audience-perception.
Her behaviour does not fit into her own characterization, and she's still going to be the one being viewed disapprovingly for it by the conservative mass audience.
This has to be the only show which tries and fails to make the mass audience disapprove of their male lead, doesn't even try but succeeds in making the mass audience disapprove of their female lead, and tries and fails repeatedly to make the mass audience approve of a character that it proves completely disinterested in every shade of.
Really sorry for the intemperateness of this rant, but even DD's performances in her other show are not proving adequate endurance-solace for this track that has clunk spring up overnight larger than Jack's magic beanstalk.
