Omg. I know covid ke saath shooting karna mushkil hai, upar seh creativity aur logic inki bahut limited hai but i feel like school plays may have better logic and production value than this show. Sometimes they surprise us with good scenes/tracks but often like todays episode - its pretty ridiculous. Today epi was honestly laughable. Virat and his pack of police officers vs terrorists looked to me like 5 year olds with toy guns playing chor police in their building conplex. I really found the whole setup cringeworthy rather than gripping action.
This terrorist mission lacks any sense of legitimacy. I was distracted by the pretty flowers and garden in the fort premises where this drama was shot. And Media is showing live telecast of the mission including the faces of virat on tv. Wow! Toh how is this mission confidential. Do they think they are recreating 26/11 with this chindi chor police?!
Sai's hostel room has even tv. Wow. Pure CN mein ek tv nahi dikha hai aur iss hostel room mein flatscreen tv hai. This hostel is pretty posh. I think Sai should tell virat also to live in this hostel with her after they make up.
The only saving grace of this episode was Sai's acting. But it was let down in many places by how shoddy the whole editing, screenplay was. Sai after hearing of dangerous mission- behaving a little crazy thusofying food, but unable to stop crying as she was caught in virats memories- fighting head and heart was nicely done by her. But i think the direction could have been much better- maybe Sai dropping /breaking plate or two unintentionally by knocking things over, or choking on food/water- would have been a good touch to enhance the scene. But Sai's emotions are reflected in her eyes. And later as she anxiously cant stop shaking her leg and cant study is so realistically done. She is pacing anxiously trying to calm herself even though she has a foreboding of danger.
But again Sai's beautiful acting gets cut short by ludicrous plot where aniket is calling her to watch live telecast of the dangerous mission on tv. 🙄
Anyway after that we get Sai's guilt. Shes blaming herself for being khudgarz and not even picking up the phone ...poor girl is so attached to him and she doesn't even know it....
And finally we get more beizzati for pp! Aai snatching the phone telling her to not behave foolishly.
Precap shows Sai trying to contact Virat, someone's else answering his phone and telling her he was injured by bullet. 😢
If she saw live telecast on news, how come Sai and crazy CN family didnt immediately rush to the actual crime scene. 🤔 Or maybe they do.
Whatever.
Monday ko virat ki injury, tuesday ko drama, wed-thu tak hopefully Sairat hospital mein milan hojaans chahiye! ♥️
Considering the limitations that they had w.r.t shooting, I want to give them the benefit of doubt. They are in a bio bubble, its difficult to show a proper terrorist attack. Yes they kept on going round and round the same area but then they dont have an option at all. So I dont want to really fault out the makers there. Plus Neil really did a great job with his body and hand movements along with his expressions.
Coming to the news part, I guess it actually was like how the news channel catch the snippet of the officers and keep telecasting it again and again and keep speaking about how dangerous the mission is because of the sounds coming from inside... They were showing the same snippet if you look at the television, it was certainly not live on television actually, they just saw a glimpse of Virat and knew the mission is deadly. Thats it. It was a mistake at the editors part, where he kept on switching back between the TV , Virat on mission and Sai watching the tv, which looked like they are actually watching it live, which was not the case. They could only see a small glimpse of Virat and I assume the news channels were replaying it again and again , just like it happens in real life also. So I dont think Sai gets to see him getting shot, she gets to know only when she calls him.
Also I have seen PGs and hotel these days having falt screen TVs .Even my PG had a Tv not that big but a smaller one, but flat screen and mind it it was not a luxurious PG. Creative liberty can be given a leeway here..
Patralekha is so much self consumed. Seeing the one she loves like that, all she could think was why did he not inform us, rather than his safety and welfare.. Ashwini was brilliant in her portrayal of being scared.. Patralekha would have been such a suffocating wife to be with, she has the audacity to call him knowing he is on a mission and cannot pick her call, if at all he picks up he might get distracted.. Such a stupid and self-absorbed woman she is. And I am surprised how the CN bade do not find her irritating and dont feel like scolding her instances like these.. There hatred for Sai is bigger than the issue at hand..
Sonali comes out extremely shameless, talking nonsense about Sai even when she knows her husband has been a bigger culprit. Atleast Omi does not keep on taking nonsense about Sai, as of now. My hopes of Sonali finally understanding Kaku or Karishma revealing the truth has gone to the drains.. Sonali actually seems to be the most vicious character on the show to me as of now.
Also I believe the media gets to know about attacks usually from the sources they have, so thats fine however the family might/might not know about the mission they are going to... Happens ..families get to know about such impromptu missions, through news. I do believe they did not telecasts the news live, because the TV screens just had that same snippet of Virat firing being shown on the top hill..both at Sai's TV and CN's TV.
Ayesha was brilliant today, be it the stuffing her mouth scenes or her anxiousness the bechaini while thinking about Virat..👏
Patralekha the character and the actor.. No words.. She gets atrocious dialogues and she performs atrociously. 😆
I am giving them a benefit of doubt today, because of the limitations they are posed with as far as space and time is concerned.. Also I believe the way SP is going gaga over Sairat, they have been asked by the channel to speed up the reconciliation , because of how Neil getting ill has extended the separation. Hence the hurry and editing lapse.
