Hello people, today I am earlier, cause I was excited about the episode, and although it wasn't a fabulous one, but yes it was a good one. Since I am in a savage mood today, I think I will have a lot of negatives to highlight, so do bear with me. Don't worry, there were certain bits which I did enjoy watching, but it was the bare minimum. So here it goes:
Highlights - Yayyy!👍🏼
VAni - I liked the VAni scenes today because for once Surbhi as Bani was giving it back to Veer with spontaneity and if I am not wrong, it was quite flirtatious, that even the mighty Veeranshu Singhania had to back off because Bani was in form today and Veer was clean bowled. Even after being interrupted by Jai, Veer was not too miffed, infact he was rather impressed that Bani has an equal amount of insanity in herself as much as he does. The only fine line is in between love and hate, and I am not sure when Bani may cross that line and not realize it at all. As I said, when Bani and Veer come together, it's like no one else exists on the floor - everything blurs out for them, and it's just them at that moment.
Surbhi's screen presence - Has improved quite a lot, and in fact, I could see her putting in effort in her chemistry with Jai too. I could see those feelings in her behavior and eyes and it was on point, even though it was not reciprocated properly. After remembering her past life, Bani is rather comfortable with Jai and more expressive. So, kudos to Surbhi for the hard work there.👏
Jai-Bani chemistry - Now, don't get too riled up. I am not saying that they are the lovesick puppies of the century, but their chemistry is more like fire and water. Bani is always breathing fire like a dragon, whereas Jai is calm, cool, composed, and thinks and acts. Bani is volatile, but Jai is stable. Technically, two people whose personalities are like this should very much be together. But the problem is the cold chemistry does not really work for any of us here. Additionally, I would add that seeing Jai the way he is, he has all the characteristics to be a good manipulator and nemesis because of his cool and calm approach. He is not like Bani who takes the bull by the horns and just barges in when she sees red, but he will analyze and approach his nemesis when the time is right. So, I would say if he is the ingenious planner, then he will do a good job at it. And really hope we get to see such shades.
Cheel Family Dynamics - By God, Salvatore brothers and Mikelson family ki yaad dila dete hai ye log. Itna chilled out environment hai inka, no melodrama, only shanti. Mauj karo aur life jiyo. Bani will have fun with this family when she actually calms down a notch.🤓
Highlights - Nayyy!👎🏼
Surbhi's dialogue delivery - I don't know how long will I have to harp on this, but something is severely wrong with her voice tone and dialogue. Her mouth does yoga moves and voice comes out like a flute without holes. There is something severely wrong with her dubbing. Where is the throw of her voice? Why can't she talk normally? Why do her lips do aerobics while uttering her dialogues, especially when she is in her fierce form? Please, creatives, it is not pleasing to the eye at all, bilkul mazaa nahi aata phir dekhne me. Sab matiya mel ho jata hai.
Inconsistency in scenes - Okay, so I did not understand, when Veer locked himself up to recharge himself, then what happened after that? Why is there so much gap so that you don't know what is happening. Even the melodrama in Mathur and Sharma house was so abrupt and weird. Like ek to ye Mathur family dikhti nahi, aur jab aate hai to itna hadkamp macha diya, it is a pain. I think scene transitions should be smoother and not so abrupt like we are in a race.
Annoying siblings - Okay, I have seen many siblings, but Jai's siblings can get on your nerves, man. How can you deal with such an annoyance as Aarohi? Continuously invading your brother's privacy. Concern dikhana alag baat hai and continuously hover karna alag baat hai. Even his younger brother knows how to draw a line, but this sister of his is frustrating to no end. How does Jai put up with them? And is it me, or overall this season, everybody is pretty chill in the supernatural surroundings. Meera di is chill with Bani being a Naagin and killing off cheels and making elaborate agendas. Jai's bratty siblings think that they are a part of a reboot of the Shaktimaan series, and Cheel brothers ko to chod hi do. Unhone to cheel aur chill dono ko mila ke pee liya hai daru ke saath.😆
Family dynamics - Honestly, I found the family dynamics so weird and abrupt to no end, I cannot even begin to explain. Everybody is far too normal than they should be. I am sorry, but I find the Cheel family dynamics more relatable, strangely. I mean I understand the concern of Jai and Bani announcing marriage in a day, but the drama was OTT. Like this dadi chachi sab waise hi gayab the, achanak se sab prakat ho jaate hai aur raita faila rahe hai, somehow bored me to death. Then the Sharma family, I did not get either, Meera's mom wailing over the potential loss of Jai as a groom and Bani be like "Paani pee lo" and all, was weird to the hilt. I cannot begin to explain how irritated I was with all this tam jham.
Observations:
Bani really needs a grip over reality. That woman is simply "Khali khopdi Adi Naagin". Arre behen, 40 saal se cheel wahan ghuiyya nahi ukhaad rahe hai, achcha khaasa khud ko establish kiya hai. Aur tum 4 din purani naagin, jiske revenge me dum nahi, plan me dum nahi, woh chali hai Singhanias ko uproot karne. Sapne apne size ke hisaab se dekh liya karo behen. She thinks its some one-day show, all will be over the next day and we live happily ever after with Jai. Arre kaunsa chillam phuk rahi ho aajkal, humko batao yaar, share karo hamare saath bhi. Josh to bahut high hai madam aapka, zara hosh bhi sambhal lo yaar. Kal cheelo ka the end karenge, parso Jai se shaadi karenge, ye Naagin ke work-to-do from home sunke to hasi bhi nahi aa rahi. Her plan is she has no plan and no revenge at all. 😡Behen ruk jao, kal Veer josh ke saath hosh bhi thikane laga dega. Happy cheel hunting! Waise ek baat pate ki kari hai mandbuddhi ne, "kahaani ke ant badalte hai, aur kahaani waise nahi hogi jaise 10,000 saal pehle thi", ye isko pata nahi ki ye line uss pe bhi lagu hota hai.
Veer is just too overconfident because he is of the opinion that Bani feels for him. Oh yes dude, she does. But just like you are a dude, she is a dud. She does not understand that what she feels for him is not just hate. She feels something so strongly for him that even after 10,000 years that emotion holds more strength than the love she feels for Jai. She is mad to get this revenge that she has forgotten that Jai is in the equation. You just announce the wedding because you want to show it to Veer, not out of love. What kind of love is this? What kind of emotion is this for Veer which trumps over her so-called love for her Jai.
Tapish is a very observant guy, even if his father thinks he is a dud. But yes, he keeps an eye out for his family. And yes he was concerned for Meera and Veer, and less about Bani. Actually Bani is the concerning factor here because she is snooping around, which means Veer getting to know about the action happening around him without his knowledge. So yes Tapish is worried. And there are chances Meera and Tapish are getting married tomorrow. Actually, I like them together for some reason.
And honestly, what is more, annoying is the Jai-Bani marriage - ek din me pyaar, dusre din me naukri, teesre din pe chokri, chauthe din pe cheelo ka chautha, panchve din pe shaadi. Yaar, ho kya raha hai? Itna ajeeb to Veer and Bani ka hate-love angle bhi nahi laga - I guess because Veer is chasing her and Bani is avoiding him and the marriage at all costs, but still she always chooses Veer over Jai each time. Matlab hai ye bhayankar pyaar, by god.
And y'all, chill. Our Cheel Veer will remain as he is and he will marry his sweetheart, and let his twin's soul RIP.🤢
Anyway, that's from me today. Rest, m sure you guys also have some things to share. Let's hear you out.😊
