Hey Sunny
Thanks for the thread. Just watched the epi and penned my thoughts. Only gonna talk about the MaAn scenes because for me this should be the highlight of the show, not the romance but the growth in the relationship.
1. I liked the whole gift exchange thing. It felt very sweet and admirable. Thumbs up to the makers for this.
2. Anuj and Anu in the kitchen scene. This also was fine, not bad.
3. The talk scene. This i feel was a wildcard scene. If they would have done this properly, it would have been a masterstroke. Unfortunately it felt very flat. I felt I was served a tasteless dish. The salt in the dish that would bring it all together was missing.
Just something felt too weird. I know some people on twitter are praising this scene. Honestly, i salute these people who feel this scene was good. Because according to me this scene was very badly portrayed. Anuj is the person in the relationship how Anu was in AnuRaj relationship. Not sure if this is what the makers are intending to portray. I am not talking about the physical intimacy part but there is something genuinely amiss.
Let's compare the two scenes - no 1 they were not in the same room, yet it screamed love, whereas the other scene of them in the hall - screamed emotional distance. Just something felt so aloof.
I rue the day I started watching this show. I enjoyed the show for the freshness the character Anuj was, but now it's like I'm being served a spoilt dish. I am served a glass of water in the middle to cleanse my palate ( MaAn lollipop) and then back to cringe worthy stuff.
For me. I have lost interest in this show completely. I mean I am just watching it now. So that means, there is nothing so interesting anymore...
