Am too annoyed and irritated to write again, so I am just copy pasting what I wrote in Aahana's thread ...
Have the CV's suddenly developed amnesia along with Nupur???
Have they completely forgotten what stage Sajan are in their relationship???/ They have effectively broken up, for heaven's sake ... they have just got together to find Nupur, and now to find her missing memory ... they are NOT together ... especially not for this random flirting in college like 18 yr olds ... first of all, like i said after the first day ... going back to college as 18 yr olds was a retarded idea in the first place ...
okay, this is more for the CV's than anyone else ... to REMIND them what is happening in their own show ... and i know it's long ... sorry 😛 ...
On Thursday during the Gunur-Samrat scene, everyone loved the SaNu-Gunjan scenes - i didn't. I had felt one thing was hugely out of place - Sajan's smiles. They were smiling at each other conspiratorially all through, standing close together, completely at ease ... and it was very, very strange. Till the day before, they had minimal interactions, and what was there was formal, unsmiling, serious ... in keeping with the place they had reached. They had effectively broken up for good after bitter words from Gunjan and hurt ones from Samrat. This was after the Look At Me scene ... one of the most intense and beautifully done scenes I have seen on telly. And Gunjan had seen a glimpse of Samrat's pain for the first time. But she still felt justified in giving him that pain, because he was responsible for her Di's death, and she could never, ever forgive him for that.
As a reminder THIS is where SG are at present ...

So far, so good ... very understandable ... stirrings of guilt in Gunjan, memories of all the times he had been there for her, and the feeling that although her emotions were justified, maybe her words were not.
Then Gunjan goes to Mayank and gets the first bombshell - Nupur is alive. Correction - may be alive. She's angry, refues to believe that her sister could stay away from her for three long years, and that anyone could even think that was possible. In the maelstorm of emotions this provokes, Sam persuades her to put their own feelings aside because Mayank needs them, and they need to help his search, or pick up the pieces when he's proved wrong, as they both think will happen. So a major rift, which would have been expected after such a confrontation does not happen ... because of circumstances they are forced to talk to each other, despite the hurt and pain on both sides ... and talk normally. And in all the emotional upheaval of
'is she alive, is she not alive' Gunjan unconsciously leans on Samrat again as she always has done ... and he forgets her harsh words, and supports her, because she needs him. And when she needs him, he is there. As a friend, as a shoulder, as her support.
Then Nupur is found ... Gunjan can't believe it. Her breakdown, probably her first after Nupur's 'death'. She's overcome with emotion, overjoyed.
But Nupur doesn't recognise her.
Downhill slide starts here.
Gunjan jumps to the conclusion that Nupur has lost her memory, justifiably. Samrat wonders why she's play-acting, somewhat justifiable - he's been to hell and back in the last three years, and now it appears it's for a crime he didn't even commit? So his anger mixed with confusion - also justifiable, to my mind.
Mayank thinks Nupur is playing games.
They try to stop Nupur, they fail, they leave. Slide prevented?
Nupur follows them home, feeling bad for the way she treated Gunjan. Gunjan persuades her to stay for a few days, Sam adds his voice to the persuasion, not openly voicing doubts about Nupur's story, but not openly attacking her either. Just trying to look for inconsistencies.
Mayank now positive Nups is lying. Doesn't bother to think why, just wants to catch her out. Downward slide re-starts.
Thursday - downward slide steeper ... because SG are suddenly so comfy with each other. Secret glances, smiles, especially when M gets close to N and she gets uncomfortable, as though to say, see? we knew it!
Sure, they knew it. But have they forgotten they are barely on talking terms? When Gunjan first realised that Nups might actually be back, she couldn't say a word to Samrat. She couldn't even face him. So what is happening now? Yes, she's happy Nups is back, but Nups is the reason she was so harsh, so unforgiving with Samrat ... does that not strike her at all when she looks at him? If Nups got in the way of SG for the last three years, shouldn't Samrat and the pain she gave him get in the way of her joy over Nups even a little? When Nups and her 'death' was the cause of that pain?
And what about Sam? Sure, he loves Gunjan. And now he even knows that she loves him still, despite trying her best not to. But he told her he would stay away from her ... not because he caused Nups death, but because Gunjan told him that he has given her nothing but pain.
The Bhavesh scene on Friday was okay. Gunjan remembers the first time she met Samrat, the way he befriended her ... memories take over and she can smile. Even then, when he yanks her back from following Nups, ONE little sentence of dialogue would have completed the scene - his telling her tht Mayank was waiting for Nupur so that was why he was yanking her back. Just that one.
But the next bit?
'You can call me Chashmish'? He's been calling her Chashmish all along, he never stopped. And the one phone conversation they had, she already tacitly gave him that permission.
And Samrat? After vowing he would not come near her again, he re-starts flirting like 3 years ago? Has he also forgotten everything that has gone between them?
Like I said ... Doesn't seem like Nups has the amnesia ... seems like the CV's do.
My ONLY hope for any salvage of this SG track is if the entire SG scene was played out
solely for the benefit for Nups, to get her annoyed, overprotective elder-sisterly instincts up and running as another jog to her memory. If it really was just an "SG scene", it was the pits. SG are way beyond cute scenes, and are NOT at the place for cute scenes. It's Nupur who's lost her memory, not them.
CV's ... hope you're listening ... there are some fans out here who still like SENSE and storylines in their tracks ... NOT just random lovey dovey scenes ... You gave us a beautiful start to S2 with regard to the Sajan story ... now you seem hellbent on "recreating" Season One ... go ahead if you like, but NOT for Sajan ... because the magic you have created for them in season Two is far far greater and needs much more than what you showed on Friday ...
