Seriously, they did not give in to the demands for 150 episodes why do it now... Its not like TRP is down or something.... Just do what you were doing.... if they could show such a beautiful relationship development, they could just follow the same pattern going forward...... Now because I am binge-watching the episodes, I feel we are stuck at the same point where we were like a month or two back....they just keep going in circles... one step front, two steps back. and back to square one.... Imlie is still where she was when she left PD, Mand we have had truth reveal, SK-ADI confrontation, Malini "Durgama" avatar, Dev heart-attack, Aparna flip-flops...... but we are still at the same point....😆..... I should just go back to watchin it like I do my other ITV shows with popcorn and no expectations. 😊
On the side note, dont you think that more that Malini and Aditya, who have just forgotten about the relationship, other people on the show are more affected by this "7 year" long, one in the lifetime relationship that they shared..... like Aparna and Imlie. 😛
I think most of our disappointment stems from the fact that we have seen them do crucial transitions so well before.....the best example ofcourse being the hut scene which was such a sensitive transition to do vis a vis Adi realizing his feelings and then wanting to express them through that tenderly heartbreaking hug..... and they did it so beautifully that it started to make us have faith in them managing to navigate the organic path this relationship will take through every stage.
I remember vaguely some of us discussing what an interesting path the makers chose by building Adi's attraction towards Imlie through the path of their emotional connection.....that is why it felt all the more intense than a typical story where attraction comes first with typical eyelocks, trip-catch scenes etc....but Adi-Imlie were built on a different route and we started to hope that the route would continue on its potential despite the messy portions ahead vis a vis managing the Malini side of things.
Yeh nahin socha tha ki woh transition would one day bring us to dhuaan romance😆.....where the director seems to have imagined a whole other level of "symbolism" in his head regarding the dhuaan but didn't bother weaving it into the actual current plot point dhang se😆......artistic imagination soch li about Imlie ki reflection kis surface mein dikhaani hai, dhuaan kaise udaana hai, naya soundtrack kahaan insert karna hai to test it out😆....but yeh bhool gaye ki story mein yeh point dhang se transition kiya hi nahin hai😆.
They are now treating Adi-Imlie scenes with some kind of strange pressure of "romance kaise dikhaayein" rather than letting it flow organically - which is when they are at their best. Yeh jo pressure le rahe hain about what degree of physical closeness to show and how to show it.....that's what's making it all look gimmicky. If they just let these two flow along their natural interactions, the scenes would have come out more convincingly rather than needing to make grand props out of their emotions😆.
The hut wala hug scene is effective to this date not cuz of the beautiful visual of the blue window with rain falling outside😆....but because of that moment of taal mel where both of them were hesitatingly reaching out to hold each other before Adi pulls her into the hug and you feel the sukoon settling in on both of them.
I get that Adi-Imlie are being shown at a "different" stage of their relationship now.....lol but as you said, it doesn't really feel like it.....feels more like a rut of sorts where they are just going around in circles rather than us getting the feel of them advancing to a deeper stage of emotion in their relationship.....token physical closeness will ultimately feel meaningless if you don't manage the emotional closeness in tandem.
As for AM ka 7 saal ka rishta....lol but that's always been the case.....others prop it up more than these two do....especially Adi - lol for all his grand bhaashans about khubsoorat dosti, he's least bothered otherwise in really knowing or understanding Malini😆......but yeah, others keep hyping this relationship to be more than it ever actually was😆.....7 saal ke liye medal chahiye sabko lagta hai😆
