After watching Bhootu's (Another Zee TV Show) destruction, I had sworn not to watch another Hindi serial. Yeh Teri Galiyan seemed intriguing from its' review so thought to follow it by reading WU. But I am really pissed off after today's episode.
That Dadaji of Shantanu seems like a complete freak to me. He seems like the Sheldon Cooper of ITV. It's one thing to be brilliant & another thing to be sophisticated & courteous. In a party, he goes on asking people questions & suddenly accepts Shantanu as he knows the answer!!! Are you frigging kidding me!!!! Where is his lecture on mannerism vanished? The fact that he acts as a teacher shows how sophisticated/mannered he himself is. He is definitely a learned man but completely unsocial.
I am respectful towards elders but I hate people who control their kids' life & take decisions for them. Didn't like how Arindam & Anita had to convince him. It's their decision if they want to foster a kid or not. Who the hell he is to permit them & impose his decision on them? No wonder under his influence Shantanu would grow up to be another NAMUNA.
Coming to Sonakachi, Arpita & Chanda seem to be the only real characters of this show. Arpita is a good friend who has finally accepted her daughter's fate yet lent a shoulder to cry on. I am glad that at least Chanda is mourning for Shantanu. Shantanu seems just way too occupied with Puchki. ThaurMaa has suddenly taken a 180 degree turn & now empathizing with Puchki!!!! This has been the most shocking part for me.
Coming to the overall story, I don't think this show is something new. In Krishnadasi, they showed a similar story. There in place of prostitutes, the focus was on Devdasis who are treated with almost equal hatred & the FL was from Devdasi lineage.
I have never seen any show of Vrushika Mehta but from others' description, she seems like a very talented actress. The kids are also very good. But as a whole package, it's quite disappointing.
Childhood memories & friends are irreplaceable in our
life. But from the beginning I feel they are trying way too hard to romanticize
the whole situation. Showing the kids to pull stunt after stunt & now
Puchki going through all sorts of misery it's the tried & tested formula
a FL who has to gone through hell. Unfortunately a little girl is going through
this phase & somehow it's destroying the innocence of her age. I dread to
imagine the plight of the unfortunate kids who are born & raised in such
areas. But instead of focusing on the social rejection they are showing high
dose of ShanKi which is kind of irritating.
I know the story is about two childhood friends who would eventually become lovers. But the situations seem really forced to pave the way for future romance & not the innocent friendship.
As far the future story, Puchi is very young but Shantanu has spent the major forming years of his life in Sonakachi. If he begins to hate this place & Puchki that would be complete character assassination for him.
Overall this whole story feels like forced. Apart from the actors, nothing seems good.
This was just my opinion. I had no intention to hurt any fan's
feeling. If anyone is hurt by my statement I am genuinely sorry. It's just, I
like to express & read others' opinion. Today I was really pissed off so
had to vent my anger.
Feel free to agree or disagree but no bashing please.
