so here i am going to put my thoughts about my show.i absolutely love my show first of all. in 200+ episodes only delhi track was a little boring (and seems useless since they have totally not used the bonding of sam vishu rohan n deepi.)
but even in delhi track, the element of long distance relationship in those days was heartwarming. that tadap of listening to each other's voice, that restless wait for the letters ws amazing and absolutely real!
people say they want heart to heart convo of samaina. let me remind you all that first of all it's a 90s story. secondly, if we look closely, we will understand, that though it's a 200+ episodes saga, though they love each other like anything, this college track is the first time they are actully together as a couple.
"utani hi door hai tu jitani kareeb hai..." this is true for both sam and naina. first it was just naina's crush on sam, then sam's revenge in the form of bet, then bet revelition and sam's redumptions, love confession but immediate saperation, then manhoosiyat... tell me when they were actually together as couple? they will take time to have those heart to heart convos.
one of the reasons i love this show is the realistic approach.
i found many people critisizing the first time vaxing and shaving drama. trust me guys, the anxiety they showed used to be absolutely real in those days. it was not at all easy to just go to a parlour and get it done especially in the conservative families like naina's.
trying to make the wax at home, making a mess out of it and then going to the parlour being scared shitless... all this was so real so nostalgic... trust me! many girls in those days have experienced it!
well, i don't know about others but i enjoyed the sequence immensely!
ye college ke simple pange, ye late ho jana, ye doston ka proxy lagana, ye ladkon ka po*n magazines dekhna, ye ghar pe koi na hone par doston ko bulana, periods ka serious problem hona... all this actually used to happen! i in fact congratulate the cvs that instead of showing drinking, drugs, confusion of sexual identity, unwanted pregnancies and what not in the name of youth problems, they are showing regular simple but important issues and struggles of any common young person.
people want more samaina scenes. even i want them. but guys, this show is not just about love story despite the love story being an integral part. it's about family and friendship too. this is college track and college life is just incomplete without friends!
and trust me. i don't know about these days, but un dinon, love stories were practically impossible without friends. just like mundit and swapree, friends apni friends ki love story ke liye jaan ki baazi laga dete the.
and if ppl are expecting naina to talk to sam openly abt periods, forget it. bcoz yeh un dinon ki baat hai. in dinon ki nahi. we should remember that samaina are emotionally do jism ek jaan but physically they are totally unknown to each other.
