Hello to all lovely people!! Good Morning :)
Thanks sunny for opening the thread, aaj tere thread pe two posts likhungi. First is my rant and then episode analysis. And I promise this is my last long rant!! Iske baad I am not spending my energy and spirit on ranting - pinky promise!!!❤️
Alright, WRITERS - I have a couple of questions for you to set my context.
WHERE HAS THAT ESSENSE OF TIME VANISHED??? IS THAT DOWN THE DRAIN??
You all showed a brilliant point when Anuj's accident happened, even before i must say. he understood that life is unpredictable and then she understood that life is unpredictable. I loved those episodes bec TIME is actually a master stroke to make someone realize something. After that what happened?? TIME LOST ITS SIGNIFICANCE????
What stopped you guys from making ANu say - I am ready to take a steps towards you and with you!! Is that equivalent to ILU??? NOPE. This would have given you the chance to explore the emotional side of MaAn. This would have given you the chance to show so many emotions - hesitancy, exploring each other's strength and weakness and many more. Living together after this would have become much more beautiful. Bringing Mukku in again would have been seen as MaAn trying to solve her issues in a more beautiful way. As a dreamer, if i know that a man is ready to walk with me, I will want to know so much more about him and I will want to tell so much about myself to him!!! You are showing togetherness now too, but then that essence is going some where in thin air.
Other Questions --
1. Why are your plots becoming baseless since Anuj's accident?
2. Where is the Up-ing of Anuj? Is he just a lover now?
3. Where is the stepping up of Anu?
4. Are elders supposed to be on mute when it is most required for them to speak up? Even at an age of 40+ adult, when a father speaks up that 40+ adult listens - thats what sanskar is in India atleast
Now let me start with why i asked these ques. I know this is a long running drama, but that does not give an excuse to not set a base properly.
Baseless Plots -
You guys established Anuj as this perfect man with no flaws. This was etched in our mind. A man who is sharp, who observes many things together and who gives back to people when needed, at the time needed. Then suddenly you tell us that he has a sister, he is adopted, and he is drowned in guilt!! Chalo all accepted for the sake of long running story and for adding layers to a character. BUT, let me tell you, a man who is in this much guilt will vent or will recollect pieces of his past when he is alone or when he is with his most closed ones - such as GK. Did Anuj ever did this??? Apart from a couple nightmares that were about Anu or losing Anu or for hoping - he never showed any emotions. A human cannot hide his emotions always, practically he has to show it at some point and this emotional a guy - needs to vent when he is alone. YOU MISSED THIS!!
MUkky - This tho was a classic blunder you made and many have talked about this character, so i will not repeat!! I still sometimes cannot fig her arc!! Is this intentional? You want us to keep guessing whether Mukku is smart or dumb??? Chalo agreed here too - as a reader i know suspense is a good thing. However, I cannot trust you that you are indeed aiming to keep a suspense!! What if Mukku turns to be dumb??? Ofcourse an excuse is ever present that this is a long show and hence Mukku also will learn from her mistake and then she will blah blah blah...hence its a wait and watch.
Samar - This man has always been his mummy's son. He has never ever showed prominent traits of his father. And suddenly you start showing that he has Vanraj Shah's traits too??? Could you not show that ok this man also can be like his father at times? Anger, being irrational, not willing to listen, throwing things, shouting at a woman and so on?? So I have to assume suddenly that bec of xyz reason Samar is behaving like a V and pacify myself, is it?? I anyways assume a lot as you guys have given that scope/space and then observe the characters. But today my rational mind is asking or making these observations. When we are mainly writing a story for a LONG RUNNING SHOW, I have the scope to show the nuances more!! I can show that Samar also has V ka traits. Which Anu can see too and she can talk to show her son the mirror!! What made you ask him that ques when he personally has witnessed so many things? This is the same sane Samar who made her understand that ANuj's love is right and not wrong at all!! This is the same Samar who values love, who will never throw it away!!! As a human we know that one wrong move, one harsh word can crack a relation and then we have to move mountains to make that relation work!!
You aim to show Sanan's fight is just to get Anu and V in loggerheads!! Was there no other plot to come to this point? Such a simple matter ka pahad bana diya aap logon ne, kya drama hai bhai wah!! Kudos to your creativity. If the intent was to show that kids observe their parents, they come to some conclusions from the way the parents live their lives; i can tell you 1000 plots to show that; not this baseless fight!
Nandu - Kab se she is so in love with her massi man??? Kab se?? Have i missed seeing episodes where she is showing this much love??? She has been a practical girl and she too has witnessed what has happened with Anu. She has called a spade a spade when it came to Kavya. Infact, here I agree with her POV - only thing you forgot to establish is that she really loves her massi. Hence assumptions to be made and then her acts and episode to be understood, right??
Coming back to ANuj - I love him as a lover man, who will not; but is that the identity of a person?? Isnt a person more than a lover at any given point? You bought in layers in him and now all layers along with his sharpness, his observations are hiding??? Its good to step back and give space to a sister so that she gains confidence and gets that chance to make mistakes. But is it sane or advisable to not observe at all?? Why I am not seeing this skill in him? Why no scenes to show that yes he has stepped back but he is also observing whats happening around him? Why cant u give plots that also shows us this man's way of doing business. You did give us that Competition scene remember? So no ideas left to show his business side anymore??? Cant he talk to an equal tought nut and Anu observes so that she also learns??? Cant he and ANu have debate on ideas?? They can be shown coming to consensus right, in which way you can also show their individual thoughts merging, them working together by knowing each other more, their trust becoming stronger and so on. See I am giving you plots to run this show longer!!
I did brush aside him not understanding Anu;s feeling aside as stuck in no expectations mode as well. But a sharp man is a sharp man no matter what. He should have caught it way way sooner and that way you could have build up the romantic side with much more sweeter scenes. BUt na, you want the man to be dumb and thinking what ifs!!! No confidence in what he is seeing and even what he is hearing!! Is this the same confident man whom i saw walking into the cafe, sitting like he is going to own it one day and smiling at ANu??? Hesitency thode deer ki liye samajh aata hai, but not for like one month guys!!!!!!!
Anu stepping UP -- Has Anu not already stepped up since the time Anuj entered her life???? What was that after Bhumi puja - her stepping on a stool and talking with V??? What was that - her jumping the compound wall?? What was that - her talking gracefully and walking out of the house??? What was that - her looking for a house for herself?? ALL this was a step UP right??? So now her logging heads with V again is what - another attempt to step up??? Is this not a repeat??? And ofcourse in between you guys tried to bring in a unique friendship between them!! I mean how can i forget that. So, let me give you a small example of what would have inspired me - When she came in and caught Nandini - she did see the ring on the floor and she accessed the situation. How is Anu answerable to any god damn person that she has to stand there and give her lecture or get into a horn fight with V???? I would have preferred her to call Samar, take the ring, take his hand, walk out from that house, make him sit on a bench and talk to him bluntly that - dont repeat your parents mistake, instead learn from that and TRY NOT TO REPEAT!! You are my sensible son and I dont expect you to repeat the mistakes I DID. This would have also not bought Samar in the influence of Mr Shah even for a sec!!! This is Anu stepping yet again and defying the Shahs in her own way!!
Again, coming to MaAn as a whole and them showing haqq and stepping UP - let me give you two instances that you missed as per me. 1. When Anuj was helping her in the kitchen and talking about sanskar, i would have liked to see ANuj telling Anu - "lets do one thing ANu, lets talk to SaNan together. I am sure that if we bring them out of the Shah house, and talk to them in a park they will calm down and listen. You and I have the ability to solve any problem together!!" Environment matters!! And Anu accepting this!! THIS would have established two things - their trust on each other to solve anything under the moon; and them establishing rights on each other without even saying it out loud. Would this not have been better? They both would have stepped UP in their relation!!
If we ordinary people can think of such plots, why cant you seasoned great writers think of such plots I wonder!!!!
MaAn's cute scenes - I am forced to think at times ki Komal is right!! Many of these scenes are lollipops as MaAn is a trp catcher and if i show 1 cute scene fandom will dance all day, create vms etc etc. We fans are also fools at times....sorry people !!! What was so enthralling about that chair twirling yaar?? Forget being a couple; even at a best friends state if i see my bestie upset I will move mountains to make him talk or make him feel lighter. Why? - bec he is imp to me and i will be restless till he is OK!!! As simple as that. And when you go round round you will have head spin and you will catch the person who is close to you!! You want to tell me that she caught him bec she is now very comf with him?? That is one perception right? The other perception is he was close and she caught hold of him - big deal.... So see ultimately is this not a game of perceptions and assumptions??? If i perceive it as romantic and go al awwwwwwwwww then it is and if i see it practically then its no big deal. My point is these moments can capture us only for a specific time, not always!! A relation is a real way steps UP when you see them act with each other, for each other in simple and tough situations. I am super positive person, Many of you read what i write as my perceptions always tend to assume the nuances/cracks in people and explain from their view point. But i also have a threshold to continue doing this. If characters behave someway suddenly, if fights are meaningless (without proper base), if sense is not shown in the main characters, how long can i go on assuming and writing???
All in all - buckle up writers!! Dragging the confession is NOT a smart thing; Anu waiting to solve everything is NOT a smart thing - life in that way never gets sorted!!; ANuj not being sharp is NOT a smart thing;
Ok, am done!! If i have made no sense then sorry!! If i have made sense Thank you!! And always my respect and appreciation to you all for having that patience to read what i write!!!
I dont want to stop coming here and write/discuss/debate with you all lovely people!! But if the script does not improve then am afraid I will have no reason to write!! The only reason am still watching the show is to interact with you all!!❤️❤️
Will write another post with my observations on last two episode based on my assumptions!!! Maybe by afternoon!!! Have a great day all!!
