Yeah anurag did not have dinner nor breakfast and early morning went straight to talk to kajol..

There he was forced to eat pani.puri ..😊

Truly words are less now to describe his love for kajol..

He won't let go of kajol but fight to be in her life . Anurag said it himself ,he can't live without her..

These two are making us sit on the edge of our seat to see them back together..

Hopefully Thursday is the awaited moment by viewers of the show..

In few hours the views of the precap is over 200k views just for anjol..

Creatives still not getting it audiences want anjol and not sad track..

He is devdas now days. This is the first time I am seeing a ML crying none stop bc FL is not telling him why she broke off. He looked so lost in that crowd despite having so many peoples around him he was all alone and his eyes was kept looking at kajol’s window. He even sat on a table so he can look at her window. I feel bad for Kajol she also cannot help but be rude to him and tomorrow she is gonna really blast him in rage but then watch she will cry herself.

I like this scenes bc it makes me wait for them to be together but since the show is ending I don’t want that ti happen at the end.

She says she don’t need anurag in her life then why is she crying and looking at anurag through her window and pani puri scene the look she was giving was so hurtful and then she imagined him.

200K omg I hope colors and cvs see this 🥳we should get drama + AK

Say what? Taken soon means? Why cannot they give different time slot bloody colors

So many of such articles with a may be or might be so its better to wait for confirmed news..

They have options.change time slot or.move it to their OTT platform..Hopefully viewers can suggest it to the channel or production house if anything as such happening ..

For now I will enjoy the show for anjol as creatives can't make the viewers swing like a pendulum..one day happy and next sad with MU then separation again.

If there is a MU created by evils it should bring anjol more closer and their bond more stronger..

What happened in the episode?

Is it just me or did the rain scene where they have a catch and fall had no chemistry. In fact the scene looked rushed and badly written. Kajol’s dialogues and Anurag’s dialogue delivery was so filmy LOL. The subtlety of their earlier scenes is missing.

Also I feel like both Ishita and Karan lack the comfort with each other to make such scenes look convincing. When you are friends with each other, I think it inadvertently makes the romantic scenes more convincing as the actors are not awkward in acting out such scenes. I always find something lacking in the Anjol romantic scenes although they share great chemistry no denying that.

I know there have been many jodis on ITV who have created beautiful chemistry despite the leads not getting along off screen. But here I still think that even though Ishita and Karan like and respect each other as co-actors, their personalities are such that they are unable to shed inhibitions in a romantic scene as there is a certain awkwardness in the body language.

The only ones I have really liked till now were the durgo pujo scene and the dream sequence at the NGO. Again purely my opinion.

I have said they lack the spark and sizzle. Dream sequence of Kajol too had felt like a dud. I think Anjol chemistry should be about the sweet moments. It is alao a reflection on their nature's right Kajol is a simple seedhi girl from a traditional family. Anurag is an introvert and a little straight laced and khadoos on the outside, nice on the inside. Sizzle can come later ( now most probably there won't be a later) they should focus on defining the contours of the relationship rather than fan service or more aptly fangirl service.

Didn’t see the episode yet but didn’t Ishita said that there is awkwardness between Anurag and Kajol so maybe that’s why they shot like that otherwise Karan and Ishita seems very cool on their reel dance scene neither of them are shy or feels awkward. If they think otherwise then there is no such things as acting and Jodi

Yes I completely see now what you meant earlier when you said that they lack the sizzle. And for the sizzle it doesn’t have to be physically intimate at all. I mean couples only look at each other on screen and one can feel the spark.

I don’t know what it is. Maybe the PH has been given a timeline regarding its wrapping up the show. And now all the scenes are being rushed through. Like yesterday also Noina’s wedding drama was wrapped up in ten minutes while the MU has been going on for ages.

This is EXACTLY what I meant when I kept ranting about the slow pace of the show and wasting precious screen space on vamps (earlier Chondana/Noina and now Priyanka/nani). It would inevitably result in compromising the leads love story.

Bold: I agree to the point that this couple lacks the 'sizzle', but with a caveat. Personally, as a viewer, I have never really thought that a pairing needs to sizzle for me to buy into the pairing's romance- like, I have never thought it is an essential for an onscreen couple because if the sizzle factor is supposed to be essential, we would actually miss out on the variety of ways a romantic couple and romantic relationships can be. For context- think of Deepika Padukone and Irrfan from Piku- no one can say they are a sizzling couple and yet their understated romance/bonding in that movie gave a new way to imagine what a romantic relationship could look like. Further context- Arnav and Khushi of IPKKND had unparalleled sizzling chemistry, is an iconic rage really and yet, today, this is not a couple I would enjoy watching because of so many stereotypical elements in the ArShi bonding

Which is why I bought into the Anjol romance almost from the word go, because it just seemed like a very grounded partnership as opposed to passionate emotions flying all over the screen. Which is another reason I am annoyed with yesterday's episode because it feels like the writers were trying to shove sensuality to us out of nowhere. Again another writing issue- a sensual scene between them would have been far more believable at a much later stage of their relationship which we never seem to be reaching thanks to the overly stretched MUs. I also think this has lesser to do with Karan or Ishita's equation and more with the writing- because they have also displayed remarkable chemistry in a manner that is true to their characters (think Durgo pujo chok shuddan scene, or all the awkward car conversations, which had more originality).

But this is completely a personal preference that I am stating- I understand TRPs and fangirls may not always want this. I wholly love the Anjol chemistry and find nothing lacking except for the nonsense they are now doing with the overstretched MUs and the TRP damage control mode that CVs have gotten into
