I finally watched the Sat episode...
And wish I hadn't.

It looked like a street play performed indoors - with exaggerated actions and expressions so that even the dumbest person gets the message - complete with SM's silent movie-type emoting...

Only street plays dont usually have a comic twist in the tail...🤢

This was better than the back to school street play. Danny and Kusum actually looked good together.

But I felt it was senseless, and the expressions of Maleeka were too OTT.

Gautam's concern was good, but the use of play to bring back her memory was silly.

No I wasn't talking about the play within the play, but the main scene itself was nautanki-style, everything exaggerated and relentlessly progressing to ??????

And the comic twist in this nautanki ws the paagalkhana alumna reunion at VC's haveli with both of them enjoying their private joke, and all the so-called sane people stunned into silence. Now the onus is on them to prove to the "dost-dost" that Gumaan's name is Gumaan. Wow. Kafka would have been proud of our CeeVees...😲

Is baat pe meri fav Kafka quote - take with several shakers of salt in our context...😉 and substitute TV show for books...😛


"I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound or stab us. If the book we're reading doesn't wake us up with a blow to the head, what are we reading for? So that it will make us happy, as you write? Good Lord, we would be happy precisely if we had no books, and the kind of books that make us happy are the kind we could write ourselves if we had to. But we need books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us. That is my belief."



Watching this last leg of SC would make anyone want to take the axe to something or the other. I need to order a punching bag, I think..That would be safer...😊

Didn't know who they were, just listened to their show, it was highly amusing. Imagine, the husband wife do this for a living! What a blast they must be having day after day!


I don't understand what you're saying?

But I thank you for this post, whenever I think about it, I keep laughing out loud. Can't just control the laughter😆

We should all practice to laugh like Kafka at the absurdly 'stupid' situations of the protagonists.😆

Isn't this what you meant by sawbones? I didn't know what sawbones quite meant, did a google search and got this series of podcasts.

Thoroughly enjoyable and a must listen for all. A doctor couple who talk about common ailments and all the amusing, ridiculous and at times horrific myths and treatments and cures that have been practiced over the centuries make for great listening.
