Mina Show - Reactions Dec 1/16 (Ep 725)

When I told him Abhi gets shot today Dad said he wanted to watch. So here we go!

Yay for Abhi at least saying Ruk!! Good focus Rockstar eyes on the prize.

LOL at burglars taking Prags to the window. Why didn't the police have a sniper to take him out???

Oh God seeing Prags thrown around like that I don't like it 😔

Abhi being torn between saving Fuggy and Tanu...yup don't like that either

Who is this security guard who saves Tanu and where did he come from suddenly!!

Police officer is convincing Purab that his Di will be fine. What even Police bro how do you know!!!!

LMAOOO AT THE DOG RINGTONE OH MY DEAR LORD WHY AND HOW

Since when is Tanu's ringtone a dog though.

Abhi seems to be thinking hard about to do. Hope he has a plan.

The burglar says that the ringtone saved Pragya for an extra minute. Does that mean we have to thank Tanu 😕

Eeeks at the fangirls having to be tossed off as shackles.

I really don't like that shirt Abhi's in. They could put something better for such an intense scene na. I know in real life you can't dress well for a burglary because it catches you by surprise but this is fiction.

The police officer looks surprised at the gun shot sound. Bade experience se baat kar raha tha?!! Why is he surprised scoundrels SHOOT!

I think they cut the slap from the zee USA broadcast? Abhi brings it up but I don't think I saw it. Maybe my head was turned.

Abhi is furious because the bro slapped Pragya. HEY ABHI. How will you react when/if you ever know you did the same?

Police came AFTER Abhi got shot, yeah I'm just 🤔

OMG ABHI IS STILL TALKING ABOUT THE SLAP. I can't. I get it, I understand why ML Abhi is upset. But Mina doesn't have ML. Mina still remembers the utterly awful terrible unjustified miserable not-enough-sad-words-in-the-world moment when Abhi slapped Pragya because she said she didn't love him. AND SO THIS MESSES WITH ME.

But I know writers don't remember that.

Abhi holding on to the MS - I like it a lot. It's kind of a child's grip though so IDK how to feel about it.

Tanu looks appropriately appalled at what she has wrought.

Arora House scene and fretting over a broken photo. THIS FEELS LIKE A SERIAL. Bless bless. The momentous music too. BLESS!!

The photo of Pragya and Sarla in the background is from Aaliya's wedding sequence - I LOVE THAT SARI.

Purgya and Abhi in the ambulance. Dad is wondering where Tanu is. IDK Dad IDK!

Daadi-Daasi talking about their anxieties over a picture of MugamBhi. LOVE IT. Again feels like a serial. BLESS.

So the reason Aaliya doesn't pick up the phone is make up...and not because she's an entitled princess who doesn't do anything remotely resembling a house chore?

Dad wants to know why in the modern age Daadi doesn't have a phone near her.

What I'm so confused does Tanu's call go to both the home line and Aaliya's cell?

Also why is Aaliya wearing those heinous sleeves or collar or whatever it is. I mean it's great couture but why is it in this episode I don't feel it fits.

Did Tanu just say Abhi died? WHAT EVEN TANU.

Tanu says Pragya didn't let her get close to Abhi. HAH. GOOD. DO THAT ALWAYS PRAGYA. That would solve your problems.

LOL at Aalu yelling at Tanu. I still don't understand why these bickering villain scenes are shown but it's amusing.

HI NEEL. HELLO NEEL. HI.

Prags has endless kidnapping track memories. Oh there's a Lonavla one. I wonder if I missed any.

THIS SHOW USES A LOT OF FLASHBACKS. Just saying.

Typical Pragya devastated that whenever she comes into Abhi's life she causes harm. No awareness of all the disasters she has suffered by his being in her life. And no perspective of all the good she's done for him too. Blah to it all.

Dad says he doesn't like Vin Purab but I don't know why because I was too busy thinking about Pragya's self-blaming complex.

Aaliya sitting there crying with Daadi like a good granddaughter. Aww Aaluuu <3

Pragya's faith in God is shaken in the before-the-break precap. I am really alarmed. Are heroines allowed to do this. Isn't she supposed to run to a mandir and beg for divine intervention now. Idk what the narrative forces do to heroines who show arrogant anger instead of reverent humility in these situations. I GUESS I WILL SHORTLY FIND OUT.

Dad says bringing Prags in as Nikita-Not-Prags and Abhi not getting his memory back "should bring the show down to the 20th ranking." DAD DON'T WISH ILL ON THE SHOW. Oh man. This stresses me out. I can't deal with the concept of wishing poor ratings for the show. I want constantly good ratings forever and ever and ever thanks.

Dad just laughs when I explain my freak out about this.

There is this super adorable commercial with a little girl who is holding dhoop in her hands and can we please get this someday with AbhiGya and their kidlet pls k thanks.

This commercial break is unbearably long I must know about Pragya's crisis of faith and Abhi's bullet wound.

And we open with a Daadi being attended by a doctor insted.

Did Aaliya just say Daadi needs Pragya???

SERIOUSLY WITH THE FIR. The dude has a bullet in him. FIR? :(

Dad wants to know why the police didn't come with them and he says it's a weakness of the show not to depict this detail.

Operation ki tayyari without a doctor...I'm not really sure how that works.

Dr do you mean you wouldn't treat him immediately if he wasn't Abhi the rockstar?

Wasn't it recently that I was rejoicing at the lack of hospital scenes on this show compared to others. Ooops. Cardinal rule of Hindi serials. They can always squeeze in a hospital sequence when you lease expect it.

So Pragz is here all by herself for Aaliya to come prey on her? :(

Another commercial break :( :( :(

Dad is asking me why I don't write short stories. Like for example I could write a short story about an owl. He saw an owl in our backyard (?!!!) and wanted to write a story about it but only got 2 lines in.

No, dad doesn't know about my KKB fic...And I don't know about any owls in our backyard 😆

Maybe Pragya could write short stories about owls. Or Abhi could write songs about them. Dude idek ok.

There's promo for another show with a really awesome song. I think that train station promo for AbhiGya had a really awesome song. I don't remember what it was though.

These commercial breaks are too long. I should not Mina Show commercial breaks. But I couldn't watch online today for various reasons so we are stuck with commercial breaks.

THANK GOODNESS THE COMMERCIAL BREAK IS OVER.

Purab telling Pragya to have faith in God. Pragya mouthing Abhi type dialogues about God. Pragya do I need to remind you what you said when Abhi asked about proof and indications of God? You asked if he breathes.

I feel like writers need a consult board of people who know what happened on the show in the past. Then again who needs consistency when you have drama eh?

Oyeee that wound looks bloody and gory aaaye 😕

Aalu hanging around crying and yelling at Pragya. Blaming her for making the phone call and getting Abhi shot.

Aalu let us recap.

Burglars stormed the store - therefore requiring someone to call the police.

Abhi moved towards hostage Pragya - therefore getting in the way of the burglar's gun.

The burglar fired the gun - therefore getting Abhi shot.

Is the chain of causality not CRYSTAL CLEAR HERE?

Meanwhile, Dad forgot Tanu's name and called her Sumona for some reason I don't know. Then he went on a rant about how they're giving her undue importance and he's very disappointed with the writing of the show and doesn't want to pay any money for it.

I asked him how he's paying money for it, expecting him to say about subscribing to Zee, but he misunderstood and answered that he would pay zero dollars for it.

Oh my God. The very idea of blaming Pragya for this makes my head explode. Did Pragya invite the burglars to the store? Did Pragya invite them to threaten her with a gun for trying to save everyone's lives? Did Pragya invite Abhi to save her? AND EVEN IF SHE HAD. Even if she had explicitly invited all of those things - the other parties are the one who acted. Abhi acted. The burglars acted. And Pragya deserves blame for their actions? Kindly recheck the calculations, please and thank you.
