AP, Rivs,
Nice post.
I was so waiting for the leap but this story ain't moving nowhere even after 5 years. I am so disappointed. From whatever little has unfolded, it doesn't look good. Bani is still being used, manipulated, she is still not independent. Jai Walia is still helpless against his perpetrator. Being rude to a few powerless employees or being unkind to a kid, does not give the forum back their original RB. I would have so loved his characterization, had he been the one to completely destroy Pia. Why are the creatives saving Pia for Bani? Jai was the person most wronged by her. I don't understand.
I hate the sight of Pia ensconsed in the mansion. I hate it that everyone is helpless against her. I hate Rano's look of helplessness. I hated that teen beheno ki kahani that Rano told the kids. For what purpose? Kya pyaar yaar? Even after so much water under the bridge how can she talk about love between the three sisters? Why didn't she cut Pia out as a sister?
Above all, I hate Karuna's characterization because she is being played by a talented actress (just my opinion) who has the capability to bring out those gray shades, those moments of regret, those moments of doubt. Instead we get a flat two dimensional character. What a waste of talent all around, RK, PD, and the person who plays Karuna.
I am so sorry that the butchering continues. I don't mean to offend Jai-Bani supporters and I say this in all politeness but may be it is time to let Jani RIP.
