Good Morning Krishna…
Thanks for pming me with the link of the review. It's really difficult to find out here.
Yepp! I too watched the episode just now... And trust me after watching today's episode I have some mixed feelings regarding this track…
Yesss!! Ani isn't completely wrong here.. But the way he is handling things is wrong.. No doubt about that…
Bon is not wrong here behen.. Exactly Ani itself aware of the fact that Bon is growing and along with that her emotions will also be changing.. But here he fails to understand his own spell of words which he elucidated to others.. But,Ani is Ani na, after all he realises his mistakes at last and uses his brain at the last if the situation goes out of control...If we live with someone for a Very long time, it's obvious we get attached to them.. For Bon, after her mother, Ani is the only one whom she considers as a family na, so growing a fondness is oblivious na…We can't even call it a crush.. It's a fondness and assurance which she adores in a sort of respect and idol... That's it.!! But the poor girl is indebted to Orthodox social norms which is slowly surmounting her to take things in a different way…
If Ani makes her understand things in a composed way, she could possibly understand things in a better way..But he sticks to his impulsive behavior which is not a good way at all… He is way mature to understand that Kid is too small to take up things immediately as she is tormenting amidst different teachings..
See, the photography shot is really more hilarious than disgusting.. I mean who on the earth in the 1920's does photo shoot in that way man?? It has gone beyond my imagination re… they're portraying 1920's into 2020's fashion… TBH, if the theme of the show is forecasting 1920's then they should stick to that na.. For name sake, it's 1920's but everything they're showing is of the current modern era, that's why so many of us aren't able to connect to it, seriously!! Only to avoid controversy they named it as a 1920 era story but what they're showing is not less than 2020…
Till today's episode, it's pretty confirmed that Manorama urf Azadi Express (AE) is good.. I believe and hope she stays positive till the end. My gut feeling says she will play cupid of our Rudhita to make them understand things in a logical way.. But rest depends upon makers how they unfold this track..
Now, coming to your enlisted points.. Lemme put my views on it
1. I too felt the same Krishna.. There's no need for the new entry to execute this track.. There's no one to one connection with the theme of track and new characters.. When Ani clearly is coming up from Bon's side even if not now but sometimes later, he should have prepared himself to face the wrath of the situation instead of running away..
2. Yep! The poor Editing is clearly visible since the start of this track. They ended the most awaited Village track abruptly within a week.. Instead of showing Rudhita vs Society again they came back to a lady vs leads.. They didn't show the struggles, in fact nothing but ended it… I still wonder why they started off this track if they have to return within a few days.. It's like a mere camp tour, nothing else.!
3. No doubt, Ani is genuinely concerned for Bon's bright future, he wants her to be a strong independent woman. Okayy, but apart from that dream, there's a lot more in their life. They're bound personally in the same knot with destiny's ploy and no matter what they will be called as Husband- Wife, people won't understand his take on responsibility.. Here, he needs to clear his notions regarding perception set by society…He cannot have a different take on their relationship based on circumstances. At one instance, he openly declares her as wife before everyone and happily does all rituals (pooja, grihapravesh, etc.,) and at other instances he does the opposite.. It's not appreciable na. He can't keep oscillating each and every time based on circumstances. Man, you're addressing her as Bondita Roy choudhary, Patni Devi and on the other hand you keep telling every passing person that she is just her mere responsibility.. Here, I blame Ani for giving false hopes to Bon by affirming the statements like "apne pati babu ki Bondita", " Hamesha saath rahenge"... Okay on which statistics he is saying all these.. Is he even aware of future consequences which he is putting himself and a kid…It's high time, He should and must have a clear monologue and notion regarding their future.
4. I completely agree with your fourth point behen.. Here, he thinks of Bon's future in just one perspective, not by another one.. Addressing her as just zimmedari and confronting her will trigger Bon to be a strong woman in future but what about the name and relation you've shared with her all those years man.. "Bondita Roy Choudhary " is not just the name but the identity you've given to her.. Bon should have her own identity but society won't accept her own persona.. Even today Girls are represented by surnames, and man it's 1920, things are different then.. History and it's struggles can't change. It's not a sequel which can be recreated…
5. Exactly, in shot, he is awesome with AE and on other hand he is just admiring her for determination. Kya chal raha hai iss bande ke dimag mein.. I so wanted that letter to get complete at least to know his monologue regarding this.. But no, they need to maintain hype and suspense which is giving a bad vibe regarding his persona for sure…
6. Exactly, due to makers blunder and unreasonable twist and turns we can neither connect to the flow of story nor to Rudhita… they have messed up highly.. I can't and I don't wanna predict anything here..
Ani revealing the truth to Bon is absolutely correct because he can't keep her in shade for a very long time.. And they can't even move on without revealing things.. That would be unfair to Bon too.. But the way Ani took to reveal things is greatly unacceptable. Man, you have given her the status of Roy choudhary and pronounced her as your wife due to society's norms right, but you're disregarding her as your wife before the same society knowing and facing its consequences already.. What's the logic and idea behind this.. If you're not respecting the knots you tied, then how can you expect others to respect the girl after such rude disagreements.. How do you expect her trust and find solace in your dreams??
After all this fiasco, saying that Bon will be shattered is an understatement.. She will definitely emerge as a strong, bold, independent and fierce woman but she will never ever trust in the relationships.. The people whom she loved turned evil and the person whom she considered as a "World" openly disregarded her.. Now, she is all alone.. Now, she can't even share her griefs and joys with anyone like before.. The relationship she owned will not be her's Anymore.. She will have a deep fact buried within her heart that she is just a passing stone there in family.. All these days, whom she considered as her Apne and relationships she is owning was just a favor to her… She was imprisoned in the Imaginary world of happiness, and if it breaks, it will really hurt her to the core.. The reason for her miseries will be Society and Ani himself in one way or another.. And now her only Aim will be studying as it's the only thing she could return to Ani amidst all his favors…
And now the question is if Ani letting her go after her education gets completed, wishing to choose her own destination will be right from his perspective.. But how would Society see her?? After being with a man for years in a knot, how would Society accept her in that Orthodox era?? What identity will she hire after moving out?? Will she be Roy choudhary or Das?? Will people call her an Independent woman or chodi hui aurat?? Will any man accept her knowing her past?? Then the answer is No.. She will be pushed down to a miserable state, people will bury her wishes alive..
Ani can move on in his life just by freeing Bon and nobody will question him too but will the same goes to Bon too?? Still, in today's modern era, women are still treated as playtools.. Then imagining those crucial times will be difficult or we can say impossible…
How will Ani justify his instant decision to marry her where he also has different options too?? How would he justify the society's rational perspectives?? How would justify his responsibility for Bon's future by tying her in the knot of marriage for years?? How can he justify his thought that taking responsibility is only limited to education and making her a strong woman?? Will he make people understand that they didn't share any Husband Wife relationship though they stayed together for years?? How will he desire to snatch the identity he has given him all these days as Bondita Roy choudhary?? Seeing the dream of her bright future won't be commendable if he ignores all these logical facts…
It's high time ARC should sit back and think regarding their future as they're both connected to this fiasco.. His changing mood swings, changing affirmations and instant impulsiveness will leave a hard scare on both of them which can't be healed..!! There must be mutual understanding of their future and priorities..
Sorry for the long rant… But this is completely my POV… No offense to anyone!!
Shaheen🤗
