Anant and Navya's phone conversations are always well scripted. And you are right, Soumya did a decent job yesterday. Shaheer's performance was controlled and very nice. You've captured all the nuances perfectly. 😊
CSB's symbolism about pill and water was OTT. And the way he delivers the dialogue makes it look even worse than it is... But let me pick on it for a moment ...
CSB said that just as the pill completely dissolves in water, so does a woman intertwine her life with her man's. After that point, neither the water nor the man are the same. They are bound to the pill and the woman respectively, forever. One cannot separate the two, even if they want to. And that holy bond is called as marriage.
Yeah CSB and his son is are MCPs no doubt and they do not think highly of women. But in this case, I don't think CSB was trying to undermine a woman's existence. He was trying, in his own sleazeball way, to preach Anant that marriage is a holy bond that changes one's life forever. And no matter what happens, once that bond is formed, you cannot break away from it - yes you can divorce and yes you can be widowed, but the name of that one person who marries you is always associated with you, in a way it changes you forever.
Like I said, the way he said it was sleazy ... and the actor performing the role is not up to the mark either. So he makes it sound like a creepy dialogue from a horror film.
