I too can't tolerate this Mastani being shown in almost every Baji-Kashi scenes. Actually the main agenda in showing these stuffs is to draw the similarities between Baji and Mastani like both liking to sleep in the ground, both love to become wet in the rain blah blah blah...And how Baji and Kashi are different from each other- this agenda of CVs is running right from the day of her entry in PB. Arrogant and spoilt brat she had been shown in the beginning days, then in the last two days before leap, her character had been remodeled to a good proper shape. And, now again the evil maasi Kumud will be back tomorrow to increase my irritation level, as if Mastani was less.
They don't have to hammer the message about difference in every scene! Baji Kashi different personalities came thru in rain scene, why shove similarity with Mastani now? They can show similar scene post her entry later.
Mastani this early is a big irritant and a huge mistake.
Now coming to the temple scene, it was really good and I've completely loved the scene, how Baji stands for the girl who is not willing to become Devdasi was too good- this scene only gave me a glimpse of the young Baji and the old PB days, good dialogues, good expressions of Baji everything was bang on and that Purohit reminded me of that Pandit in Saswad who was always against Baji and Radhabai, only Bhalu was missing. Baji said if Devdasi pratha is so respectable, why don't the wealthy family consider their girls to be the one, why only girls are taken from the poor families and moreover the girl is not brought here on her wish, nor her family's. And I liked when Baji said "jab Baji ka kisi cheez mein apatti hota hai tab uska bipaati aa jata hai!! " And her parents must go and educate the girl as by educating a girl, more generations and society become educated. And the loveliest part was when Baji said that the moment that girl came to him for help, she became his relative, she became his sister.
