An acceptable episode, which could have been much better in entirety if there had not been too much time on the actions, reactions and interactions of the supporting characters.
The RM scenes in their room were superb - the sweetness of the aarti-utaaring by the couple of each other, the flute-playing and milk-drinking.😳
The tenderness and emotional bonding has been exquisitely portrayed.⭐️
But while those were the best part of the episode, they were perhaps wrongly positioned with each being unpleasantly bookended by ignorable scenes of first Pam-Dolly-Leelawati and then Leelawati-Sweety.
Those scenes were not only ignorable but excessively long.
Hopefully the CVs don't intend to waste episodes-screentime in trying to flesh out the characterization of characters that could drop dead in the next five minutes and not be missed.
There was only one important piece of information in each of the two scenes -
Leelawati moving into the Mansion at AK's behest,
and her intending to try to make her daughter's marriage to AK a permanent one.
Unfortunately, these two points seemed coated in excessively too much talk.
So if anyone opted to skip or mute the scene after the first minute, they wouldn't hear the main point buried in all the further dialogues of that scene.
Even less than two minutes each would have been enough, since these characters may perhaps not be interesting enough for their interactions to eat up minutes, unless the intent is to give mass-audience time to check out other channels in that gap.
Hopefully, the focus is kept on the leads and not on building up the interactions between all the other characters and their actions and reactions to each other.
And hoping even more that after her strong words, they don't show Madhu letting Leelawati get away with it in the upcoming episode.
Unlike in the previous season's latter part of last year, in this season, let not the only people who actually carry out threats be the antagonists this time.
And please, CVs, decide whether Raj is to be shown faking or not, but don't take too long in deciding one way or the other. Either way, have the normalizing started soon.
And while one admires the practicality and ingenuity of keeping the leads in the Mansion and most of the Mansion's earlier coterie of residents disappear temporarily or otherwise, having to watch the leads cohabiting and harrassed by a partially changed group of antagonists now is just as excruciating.🥱
Please, could some very mundane other residence-set be possible for the leads, where the adversaries won't be appearing in all scenes outside the couple's room?
