Hello Everyone!
🤗Howz Everyone doing? Hope all is well at ur end. Missed you all like hell… It surely feels great to be back… But I wont deny that I have become absolutely Lazy😡 and blame Kasam se for not evoking any feeling except for complete irritation to get me out of this laziness. I have lost touch of writing… this is my second post in the last 15 odd days… Even as I start writing this post… I have no clue what I want to say… may be i should just start and go with the flow.😕
Before I get on with today's episode… a bit on last week. I really need to Thank Jai for maintaining his dignity over the last week and for not making headlines for all the wrong reasons… he surely had me proud with his stand in the court, I expected no less from him🤗.
Bani… Forget it! Mare huhe ko kya Marna😕! If I begin I can find another 100 faults with the way she handled the situation… but does that matter anymore? Will that change things for the better? The damage is done. She has paid for all her doings (Selflessness or Stupidity, by whatever name u call it!) with the life of her child. It is too big a price to pay for anything… she didn't deserve such a harsh punishment. I just hope that atleast now she realizes what she and her husband have lost and that she needs to STOP before they lose eachother. Listen to ur daughter's last wish Bani… she wants her parents together.
Tarun… I don't know if Swathi and Sangita gave u those angry Icons I send specially for you. Incase u didn't… here 😡😡 U looked like such an idiot in the court that day when some random guy comes and bombards ur client. I know u hate Bani... but then she is still ur client. Siddanth would be so bugged with u. And Pawan Shankar… are u really out of job that u accepted this role😕? The mere fact that Pawan Shankar is Tarun Sablok promised so much… and till date the character hasn't delivered, except for a scene or two. I am still not giving up on u Tarun, but prove ur worth before i give up on the story itself
Make way for Krishna Walia🤗. She is truly an Angel. I wish she made it into this world. But Maayi had her way in the end😡. (I wonder why we call her maayi… she has no trace of that most of the times🤢.) Krishna is nothing but the Love between Jai and Bani in the form of a life… as long as the Love remains between her parents, she will remain. And She will remain FOREVER! It was heart warming to see that child tell her mama to go back to Papa coz he loves her a lot and is all alone. And that only if Bani goes back to Jai will she be able to meet her papa some day. Seems like the she did hear her Papa when he spoke to her that one and only time. Sweety, it is better u make that request to ur Papa... he will move heaven and earth to make that possible... I am not too sure about ur Mama and her priorities
After seeing that heartwrenching scene the only thing that struck me was… why Jai is the Be all and the End all for all the woman in his life? His Massi,His Sister, His Wife and now his Daughter too and do I even have to mention the cuddles fan club here?(and I surely don't want to include his Exs coz even they are too bothered about him, esp Pia these days🤢!)
The latest to join this bandwagon is his daughter who even at this tender age is worried about the fact that her papa is all alone and wants her mama to go back to him and take care of him. I really hope Krishna meets her papa aswell… he really needs to know she will come back to him. Wonder what it is about Jai that makes all of them so protective of him…May be it that vulnerability that shows rarely when Jai lets down his gaurd, once get a glimpse of it, u lose all rationality, Period!
The Child artist who played Krishna is too special for words👏. She is such a spoilt brat as Angad's Sur and came across an Angel as Jai's Krishna.
Back to today's episode.
Classic case of messed up production😡🤢! Today's episode had the potential of being the high point of the entire show… and they messed it up and HOW! The protagonists should have been the focus of the day, but it was Jigyasa along with the support of some extras posing as Hospital staff that held center stage😡. Jai's reaction being the only saving grace of the episode. And why did this happen? Cause the unit was hard pressed for time, they needed bank episodes before they left for Dubai and since they had to start with the Dubai track they had to wind this up this haste. This is the only explanation that I can come up with… for such a dampener. It really proved that our Television Industry needs to organize itself better... else the quality and creative suffer and there can never be anything that can substitute that.
Bani's expressions weren't dealt with properly…It was pretty bland so to say. It was similar to the way Bani reacted to Jai's fake death. Was she in a daze? Even is she was, it could have been executed a lot better with the support cast, they could have enhanced that scene with Pushkar being reactive to her daze. May be it was good in a way… I surely wouldn't have wanted to cry.
Btw, Am i the only one who feels Bani's take on the child was never given the right attention😕? I found it very strange that they didnt show Bani's bonding with the kid(except for the dream sequence bwteen the Mother and Daughter), especially when Bani has very strong maternal instincts. She has been a mother to her Father, her sisters and Her Husband... then why wasnt that trait capitalised on when it came to her Child? If i remember correctly they didnt even show Bani's reaction to her pregnancy... She was never shown happy about carrying the child of the man she loves to death... Isnt that strange? I never got to see the mother in Bani during this pregnancy... I am no contesting a mother's love for the child... I am questioning its portrayal. There was a very strong presense of the Father in this context. It was Jai whose emotions that was at the fore right from Day 1. I related to this Kid more through Jai than Bani... U mention Krishna and i can think of Jai's beaming happiness when he realised he was to be a father and the sadness that engulfed him a moment later, His reactions on seeing the baby in the sonography, The most heart warming talk he had with his Baby, The Hospital wing he named after Bani, His dream, His concern for the mother of his child...making everyone run to be with bani... be it Massi, her sisters or Tarun! Even today it is Jai's reactions that stood out among the two parents. A complete lopsided affair, i guess😕. But i simply loved Jai the Father... loved watching him, Krishna is surely lucky to have him for her Papa.
Jai's scenes were handled very well… and I guess the actor needs a lot of credit for this…his experience helps him and he surely proved he is a seasoned actor. He takes an ordinarily written scene to brilliance with his performance👏. Just that 30 sec scene of him waking up from a nightmare had such a powerful impact.
Yeh Massi bhi kamal ki hai… when she is all fine she will keep her mouth shut, when she cant talk, she wants to talk to Jai about Bani's sacrifices… I wonder will there ever be a sane person around Jai???? She really didn't help… Jai always knew what Massi said… but Massi, he needs extra information… u please open up the truth now.
Jigyasa, I have nothing to say about you… All I know is no one is going to save you when the truth is out…. Wait a minute… I forget ur Bani Bhabhi😃… she will save u from Jai's wrath… Hmmm lets see how? Don't worry she will find some way, which will obviously be against the interests of her relationship with Jai. I hope she would have learnt from her mistakes… but surely will bet only on the contrary😆.
Pushkar, This is ur last chance to redeem urself... u better tell Jai everything. Come on pushkar... u have been through the same pain, u know how it feels to lose ur baby and how painful it was to be kept away from that baby as the father... cant u relate that pain with Jai? Jai is the same guy who gave u a new lease of life, he is the father fiqure in ur life... does he mean nothing at all to you, Pushkar? Is ur friend of the last 6-8 months more important than that man who gave ur a life and identity? Come on Pushkar, If not for Jai... do it for Bani... Tell Jai the entire truth and gift ur friend another chance with the love of her life.
Now for Jai facing the truth.
Again Jai's reactions were handled well… but the again the problem was that they were in a hurry to finish it off… the moment had every potential to have a complete episode dedicated to it… but then… They drag useless stuff… Jai-Bani deserved more coverage here… but kya kare… they were overworking Ram and Prachi for bank episodes.
👏Clap for Mr. Walia, he for the 1st time saw what he was signing😆! It was only then he realized it was Bani's bill! No surprises on the fact that Jai was told Bani had an abortion and the timing was perfect… the Divorce is almost through and alimony has been agreed upon. Jai's reactions came as no surprise… as expected he went numb with the news of his kid DEAD! What I felt was Jai reacted only to the lose of his baby… Abortion or Accident never registered or may be it was cause it wasn't the time for him to question his faith in Bani… he will deal with it latter, as of now he had to deal with the loss of THEIR child. The flashback had all the good times that they spend together… it was obvious he reacted to it as THEIR loss…. Bani was in equal pain as he was in. He didn't differentiate, if he had… he would have thought of all those times Bani was careless and irresponsible about their child. Simply put, it didn't look as if he blamed Bani for it…
The scene when he looked up in the sky trying to spot his daughter in those millions of stars was heart wrenching. Ur heart really went out that father who helplessly wondered why she left him when he needed her most. She was meant to come into his life as his only reason to exist beyond this day… cause the divorce was finalized the same day, Bani was to walk out of his life, it was only the kid that would keep them connected. His life became void all over again…. and the worst is that he doesn't have a say in whatever is happening…. Bani seems to be deciding everything for them…and he doesn't even have another option about it other than face it and accept the consequence…but by the look of it at the end… seems like Jai has had ENOUGH!
I am supposed to keep up with the trend of having a song for my analyisis…. Meri dimak ki band bhaji hai😕… cant think beyond Kora Khagaz… and I felt that was the closest (that I can think of) when it comes to expressing Jai-Bani's loss.
Mera jeevan kora kaagaz kora hi reh gaya
Jo likha tha
Jo likha tha aansoon sang beh gaya
Mera jeevan
Mera jeevan kora kaagaz kora hi reh gaya
Ek hawa jhoonka aaya
Tuut dali se phool
Na pavan ki na chaman ki
Kiski hai ye bhool
Kho gayi kho gayi
Khushboo hawa mein kuch na reh gaya
Mera jeevan kora kaagaz kora hi reh gaya
Udte panchi ka thikana
Mera na koijahan
Na dagar hai na khabar hai
Jana hai mujhko kahan
Ban ke sapna
Humsafar ka saath reh gaya
Mera jeevan kora kaagaz kora hi reh gaya
Couldn't read much into Jai's expressions after Jigyasa reiterated that Bani and Pushkar have something going between them. But I really don't think he will buy that story post the miscarriage. But yes, he is going to ask Pia about it… and but her answer isnt going to do much damage to his belief in Bani. As always he will give Bani a chance to speak up the truth… and her answer is what is going to be important to him… he needs answers and if she tries to be smart again… Jai will get ruthless… They have lost their Child cause of this… Jai is surely not going to let this pass by at the whims and fancies of Bani. Rest Assured!
Btw was this shot in Dubai? I really doubt the scene of Jai and Jigyasa on the bench was shot on Marine Drive in our Amchi Mumbai. I have seen Marine drive a lot many years ago… no clue if it can improve so much. Any Mumbaikars around? Was that Marine Drive? Or anyone from Dubai,who can confirm if that location is in Dubai?
If it is in Dubai… Jigyasa also is going there!? But for WHAT? God, I so lost about this Dubai track… no matter how much I stretch my imagination I cant think of only Jai's business ventures and Bani following him coz the threat looms large on his life! Whatever it is Jai-Bani I give you another 10 episodes (Karwa Chauth!) to set ur life back on track else I am giving up on u both, Period!
That is it from me guys… sorry for a sloppy analysis… just not feeling upto it. I really hope i can take my words back after T'row's episode about the hasty treatment of the track... I want to see a powerful episode t'row with Jai-Bani facing this pain together.
The Festive season is here… so a Very Happy Dushera and Ramadan Mubarak to everyone. May God grace your family with his choisest of blessing.
Missed u all a lot.
Lots of Love and Hugs
Anu.
