Bold - I have a certain view on this.. perhaps a lot of you may or may not agree on this..
Just my reading and some observation…will try to keep this short… the issue isn’t about the vehemence… it’s that the track didn’t build the reason for the new vehemence from Jhanak… here the mistake is with the scripting department not the writer…screenplay and dialogue writing are major weak links..Writer only contributes a vision and aim for the track. The scripting has to be tight to translate the vision.
When J left for her shooting etc and lost her memory, she was in a state of ease of relationship with Ani - companionable comfort and obviously that had to be broken for the rift to re-emerge. If you all note, Shristi being J’s mother was a track contrived to create the bottleneck.
so with she was injured, they should have kept her off memory for sometime and when her memory returned, it had to coincide with her knowledge of her biological mum being Shristi… giving her the justification to remain incognito… for obvious reasons. Her mum being Shristi was reason enough for old wounds to reopen and her resolve to remain hidden. But This wasn’t handled in a seamless way. It operated in a silo fashion. Viewers aren’t able to suddenly understand the attitude especially as it doesn’t come across as an act; here the direction and acting are weak links, particularly the direction. If she has resolved to stay out of Ani’s life, the anger she shows should ideally appear as an act which is not how it comes across. Hiba is a competent actor but obviously would need guidance in expressing this dynamic which is a bit tricky. Her monologues are indicative of her dilemma but her general conduct is ambiguous . I can understand her vehemence if the HA hasn’t happened where she was aggressive et so) but it’s like ML wiped that HA track from her memory 😂😂 here they have reversed her to Tumour track Jhanak
Lol that is a general problem with the scripting department of the show. Even Ani is given abrupt volte face dialogues from time to time. But yes, difference is that Krushal always manages to convey a level of internal conflict within Ani to show the disconnect between him asking Arshi to stay and then him still not showing any interest in interacting with her. lol he is able to convey ki Ani ka mann actually kahaan hai.
But makers flail on that front when it comes to Jhanak. Yes the writing is obviously very poor with J just doing random monologues about how she is more hurt when she hurts Ani and why she thinks this is necessary blah blah. But the acting comes across as her enjoying twisting the knife in Ani’s heart and enjoying flicking away his battered heart each time he opens it up to her. That is what people are criticizing. Makers haven’t even given her any coherence in her claims of self respect or ambition to achieve some career. That is why her excuses for hurting Ani ring even more hollow.
All she gets are generic dialogues about how she doesn’t want to be like Urvashi or like Srishti. lol changing the mom doesn’t change her baseline dialogue and she conveniently fits whichever mom to whatever excuse she wants to give for her cowardice in pushing Ani away for the sake of getting validation as “non homebreaker” from the people who will always relentless badmouth her regardless 🤷♀️😂
