Long time!! hope all good at your end
Our gripe about Jhanak - will always seem like a festering wound 😂😂 nasoor!!
Coming to this synopsis… I feel people give too much credit to that ignominy of a writer….
If the intention was to show Ani as the villain, the story should have focused on building it up accordingly… which Leena never did..
Showing a conflicted individual isn’t the base graph for a characterless individual or someone who does not accept he had s*x with his lover..
it is Leena’s level of creativity to craft a situation to show a man in bed in three situations but not ever acknowledging the act 😂😂😂
Leena only intended to build a “love” story that will not fructify for the continuity of the series with a silly plotline of a man who can’t remember when he has s*x and a woman who refused to own up to the relationship in any meaningful way.
she is one of the laziest producers in itv…
She makes no effort to push through any perspective…. All she does is merely peddle a nebulous set of circumstances without building any justification or substantiation for their actions. It’s like make what you will of it…the narrative is itself very noncommittal -
It’s only that in Gen 1 her tactics were about continuity of the series with some degree of why-so-&so- is probably behaving in a certain manner until it was just not possible for most loyal Gen 1 viewers to make any sense of why the protagonists are behaving in the manner and completely gave up on the show.
But with Gen 2 obviously all pretence has been dropped so it doesn’t matter what any of the characters are saying or doing cos it has no semblance of a plot just a meandering nonsense of 1 hour I assume.
What I am getting at is by people saying that Leena intended Ani to be a villain is almost to accept that a character buildup was accepted by the audience and that merely fans of Runak misunderstood the plot or characterisation BUT in reality she merely situated Ani as confused about love for an interminably long period while being committed to Arshi and falling in love with Jhanak. In a plotline that is still believable that someone who is in a relationship can be conflicted about a new bond. Yet she showed Ani making a clear choice but she just did not build it up to further that angle and created pathways that made no sense…
Ani is not a villain he is a joker but he is Leena’s joker!
Sorry, replying vvv late.....wanted to write in detail 🥲🥲
A thoughtful analysis and am completely agree here. Honestly, it felt like Leena deliberately downgraded her top-rated flagship show maybe due to personal grudges with KruShi or something we’ll never really know 😕
.................
After seeing Ani’s anti-hero version in S2: once viral as a morally complex lead with unconventional dialogue & manipulative brilliance, now reduced to something hollow & pointless. Bas, merely a puppet for driving a meaningless narrative in story of illegal aliens 🤬 Ye Sirji kisi aur planet se aye hai lagta hai 🙃
During early days of Jhanak, I was always intrigued by the synopsis mentioned on Google and mentioned multiple times on my posts earlier.
"A driven young woman embarks on a journey to fulfill a mother's promise for a better life as she overcomes challenges and loss while crossing paths with a man who further complicates her life."
.........Mr. Anirudh Bose ..............
A man who gave an innocent girl the space to bloom & the strength to shine again! 💚
VS
A man who gave her the courage to bloom then plucked every petal with his own hands 💔
...............
@bold An unanticipated truth and a harsh reality, beautifully packaged as Mr. Anirudh Bose, only to burst like a bubble soon after he sealed in our hearts? 😢 Leena already warned us but......RuNak se hamara pyaar kab ishq ban gaya, pata hi na chala 🔥Unkey pyaar ka ehsaas bhi hamara tha, aur dard bhi! 😑
We truly loved and believed in Sirji: someone Leenaji had already painted as a villain. In the end, we were trapped, pieces in their chess game, ooops business game! 😏
........
Itni khubsoorati se tasveer banake, hamein uska deewana banya aur phir reza reza kardiya 💔
