Mahakumbh 9-12: Symphony of grief and rage - Page 6

Thank you so much, my dear Swetha!

My latest post, on the last week's episodes, is just up. Do take a look at it when you find the time.

It is more critical than any of the earlier 3, and I would like to see if you agree with me and if so, to what extent.

I am sorry that I could not get it out any earlier but my knee problems apart - and it is so sweet of you to be concerned about those - the house is now inundated with teenage guests, and I am having to win guerilla battles to get at the laptop!😉

^ Beautiful review of the episodes, Shyamala aunty! 👏

Pls take care of ur health and don't budern urself so much..

My little Nikhila,

It is such a pleasure to have you with me regularly and to see your comments too.

I agree with most of these, except that Jalandhar was a more powerful character who dominated any scene he was in effortlessly. He was noble and majestic even in his wrongheadedness. This Rudra will not have those interesting grey shades to him, plus he is, even though he is supposed to be 28, more like an angry boy. And he has the kind of emotional anchor in his Maimuyi that Jalandhar never had for most of his life.

Your wish re: Charles has been duly fulfilled, but alas, I begin to think, after having seen the adult Charles, that he had better have stayed away! He is in sad contrast to his cheeky, gutsy and withal warm-hearted teen version!

I am not sure how I like this Maya. Let me see how she develops.

wonderful post aunty...loved hw u portrayed the connect b/w child,teenage,adult Rudra..!!

all the pent up frustrations,pain hv resulted him to turn to this Mr Volcano...U knw aunty...seein last week thurs epi scenes,i ws reminded of our beloved Jalandhar time n time again seein adult Rudra of thurs epi..!! din u feel the uncanny connect of how both of these two were victims of bad fate n ws forced to turn to someone whos ALWAYS ON FIRE?i toh really felt some connection..!!

n yes Gautam NAILED it as Adult Rudr in thurs epi..

n other than Rudr...i HAVE TO say i LOVED CHARLES..i really want tht char to come back to Rudr's life..!!

comin to female lead-her characterization till nw looks lik typical mahan yet modern ladki of serial world...din find impressive AS OF NOW

It is another set of nice analysis Shymaladi( Hope I can call you that). See I had expected Rudra's anger or I didn't had much problem in the way he fights of the policeman. But the way he responded to Mahakumbh mention by Maya I felt was way to OTT.

Thank you, my dear Shruti and of course you may call me Shyamala Di!

I agree with you in toto about Maya. She looks like the girl next door, and there is no aura of latent power about her. No Shakti, this girl! Perhaps that is why they have given her a highpowered uncle!😉

Take a look at my next one, where I have gone into some detail about Maya, and the impending deaht of Maimuyi.

Now coming to Maya herself. My problem with her is not the girl next attitude she has , or the love story they want to show( obviously was expecting that as makers will defo want to show Shiv-Shakthi) but my issue with her is that she is not matching the assertiveness that is needed for the role. In her scenes with Rudra her eyes doesn't exude that subtle power that is needed for her character.
