Abb kya is show mein love triangles, quadrilaterals kam thhe ki ek aur ki neev daal rahe hein?


I mean- Laakhan loves Poonam who loves Priyom who was with Priya (and many others)😆


And in yesterday's episode it is insinuated Priyom's promiscuity is really the result of a failed love affair wherein he lost his premika forever. And unlike Devdas who drank himself to death, he has many a woman to warm his bed so that he can forget her. A lamea** reason like none other, if you were to ask me.🥱



Don't tell me that the object of Pri's love will make an entry next in the show and increase our misery. Please


And poor Poo got rejected so badly by her amar prem. Gotta say, felt bad for her. Unrequited love must hurt.


Now I wonder what'll happen to this ever-grieving dukhiyaari abla naari. She should run as far from Begusarai and this mad Thakur clan as possible.

Amrutha, prepare yourself for a pentagon, hexagon, heptagon and may be even more sided polygons 😆.

I am ranting from the very beginning that Poonam should be paired opposite of a real worthy guy (what about till now invisible & useless DM of this district, who would appear from nowhere 😉 !!!), instead of these two worthless Thakur brothers. Priyom needs a reality check, a real competition; in which he should watch helplessly that Poonam is taken away by some other guy and repent for the rest of his life. But going by his traits and behavior, I mean the logic of the creatives, this would result into him increasing his promiscuity even more !!!

"Devdas" (I am talking about the original Sarat Chandra Chattyopadhyay version, not that SLB created one), was an extremely well-written character (Astonishingly the novelist considered that novel as his weakest work.). He drank himself to death as a reparation act w.r.t. his cowardice which had costed him Parvati, instead of getting into revolving-bed relationships. Chandramukhi was only his support in his days of utter misery. And Priyom Thakur !!! He is a monozygotic twin of his illustrious cousin as far as the understanding of the meaning of love is concerned.

Our all-enduring, ever-dukhiyaari ablaa naari does not have a vertebra, how is she expected to flee from Begusarai 😉 😉 ?!!!!

Chandrima, you are spot on as usual.


And I have read the Penguin translation and I am still amazed by the fact that Chattopadhyay considered it his weakest work. Devdas has now become a prototype in the popular imagination for a lovelorn young man mired by tragedy- a tragedy that is partly of his own making. I'd say the older movies, in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu were very well made and true to the novel more than the SLB one!


Par abhi bhi dil karta hai ki Priyom ko thoda Devdas bante dekhun. Perhaps Poonam can go away and return after, say, 10 years? :D


And about your reference to the DM- LOL. I don't think the writers do not plan to regale us with anything that even resembles logic!

Amrutha, thanks. Kudos to you for raising the points, I only add a bit to that. 10 years leap !!!! The creatives should consider this once they are out of ideas (which, anyways, seems they are right now); at least then this "love-story" would feel like a real love-story.

I am a bit orthodox. I usually become irritated when novels are being distorted while making a movie (I do appreciate creative liberty, but to a certain extent only.). I was disgusted with SLB after watching him tampering with two of my favorite novels - "Debdas" by Sarat Chandra Chattyopadhyay (movie - "Devdas") and "Na Hanyate" by Maitreyi Dasgupta (movie - "Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam").

Regarding "Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam", not many people are aware that a major part of this is a blatant copy of a famous Bengali novel; which is a factual accounts of the writer's own life, when she was around 16 years old. She was the daughter of one of the famous personalities of Renaissance age Bengal - Surendranath Dasgupta. She had an intense, torrid but tragic affair with a (later) famous Indologist & writer Mircea Eliad (a Romanian); when he, in his early twenties, had come as a student of her father and was staying with them. Once the affair came into open, her father compelled them to break-up and ordered Mircea to leave their house. Her father also forced her to marry a guy quite older than her. Fortunately, her husband was a kind & goodhearted person. Mircea also moved on and got married later. After forcing her to bow down to his wishes, her father himself left his own family to live with an younger girl later in his life. After many-a-years, she went with her husband to meet Mircea, who was, at that time, being considered for Noble prize. His reaction after seeing her was like she had come to meet him now as he might well become a Noble laureate !! "Na Hanyate" literally was a response to Mircea's allegations in his own novel ("La Nuit Bengali") that they did not share a mental relationship only during that phase !!! You can actually google this.

@Tina, how can you do this so regularly, even after tolerating such drama ????!!!! 🤣 🤣 ... hum jitna chaahe rant kar sakte hain, but humein wohi milnewaala hai - Babaji ka Thullu !!!!

Wow, that's actually fascinating. You know, I don't really liked the movie though. I felt that the ending was too conventional, and that they took the safe route.


But now I realize that it is based on real-life events and it seems all the more poignant and poetic. There's always this quality attached to unrequited/unfulfilled love stories. I wonder why. Heer-Ranjha, Soni-Mahiwal, Romeo-Juliet. I guess it's because they represented love at its zenith, untouched by the realities of life that would surely follow after marriage. All married couples tell me that romance fades in a year or two, and life becomes more about tackling challenges and facing realities, and raising children. It's sweeter to think of a fresh-faced Juliet, all of 13/14, pining over Romeo, than to think of a matronly Juliet fussing over the children and watching over his cholestrol😆😆 At least, this is my theory😳
