I have enjoyed the show in bits and pieces so far primarily due to Abheer and Mishti. I had a lot of complaints pertaining to the execution of the courtship and too much screen time to Meenu. But yesterday, the writers finally got things right on every front. To the extent that I even liked the first two minutes of Meenu where she is feeling terrible that Abheer is searching for his father.
My favorite moments though-
- Mishti transforming Abheer's workplace and Abheer being awestruck by her. Mishti doesn't even realize how comfortable she is with him and how far their equation has progressed. Loved that bit where Abheer is smiling and looking amazed at Mishti while she is working with the rest. Shaheer nailed that expression and the whole sequence was shot well. Bet Abheer is going to paint Mishti as his masterpiece :D Can't wait for his love realization and most importantly for Mishti to stop being this oblivious.
- Kuhu is adorable. That whole sequence starting from Kunal picking her up till the point where Kuhu is looking love struck at him while he is lecturing her in his cabin was shot incredibly well. They have a lot of chemistry and the writers would be foolish not to utilize it. Unlike Indian TV stereotypes, Kuhu is jhalli and bubbly but not mahaan or know it all. Kunal is rich, silent, brooding with problematic thoughts but is not a brat who manhandles women or insults them in public. There is a balance there which makes both characters normal and endearing. Kuhu is literally the only one who can make Kunal smile and be witty at this point. Give them more screen time CVs.
- Absolutely love the title track of the show. Goes perfectly well with both the couples.
Now that they are starting to get better, I hope they handle this cross connection with more logic and dignity and give it a proper conclusion.
