Great points and 👏 The interesting juxtaposition you have alluded to… a few thoughts on this..
In the initial episodes when Ani used grey modes to manipulate to keep Jhanak safe through Ani’s pov there was his stated purpose of discharging responsibility.. while his heart was getting involved deeper and deeper.
However slowly and steadily…the stated aim has now changed to love, now there is no mask to hide behind… The narrative has now presented a situation of Jhanak in danger that Ani must respond to.
Earlier, when he used the manipulative methods to keep her in BH…the stakes weren’t as high as now when his manipulative methods are likely to get misrepresented or misunderstood
However as usual I have one bone to pick with the writers… How can you use such silly plot device to convey an important point in the tale?
1)The compulsion in front of Ani so poorly brought out through the KB plotline bwahaha… are the writers so bereft of imagination? They killers are watching her every move in Kolkata but they will only kill her in Mumbai 😂😂😂 Adi a film star is helpless but an IT engineer has all the powers 😂😂😂 chalo pyaar main bahut takat hoti hain.
2 )his use of the colleague’s father’s cancer reports..while the fd is going gaga over his dark side…I wonder if it’s poor scripting technique or does the writer want to convey that Ani will stop at nothing.. his use of reports of an unknown person could have also done the job cos the manipulation charge would have still been intact in that case too!!! I am confused about this… would like to know more thoughts on this..
underlined above - yes..It’s going along expected lines… my reading of J has been about when the moral perch comes down
