The Lost Art of Romance

Yes. The wedding was elaborate. The Message LOUD & CLEAR. TRPs got delivered. But, where was AnSh? All I saw were glimmers (a look when AnSh met on wedding day, a hand over the threshold, a 30 second nap, some cheesy lines by Collectorsaab, a frustrated search for cotton, a godhi ride, and a whinny call).

Am not expecting flying pallus, constant eyelocks, trip & catch, and dori knotting... But, could the pheras not been deep instead of confusing? Maybe infused with AnShillicous flashbacks in tandem with succinct meaning? Why could Shiv not have wiped Anandi's tears instead of yapping about "trust"?? As for finding the ring, the audience who expected romance did not win. Even the phone call was less than charming? Could shiv not have asked how she was doing? Did she like her new home...instead of complaining?

Romance is a gesture, a word, a look, a mood...but, despite the fabulous setting and story point what we are getting am sorry to say is not very good! Not to mention rather repetitive... how many phonecalls that go nowhere must we endure? When will the BV set halwaii go home? And when will they stop with the archaic "tofaa" metaphor??

Lastly, I know this is Balika Vadhu and Anandi has a past... but, must Sindoor scenes be associated with Sumi & Singh Parivaar instead of the Naya Varr??

anji hehe i hope is week ko kuch mil hi jayega dekhnay..
but yaar I am loving what ever it is going on. Finally after sooo much pain u know its like a relief..

Waise bhi.. they have to show contrast ... when A got married with Jaggu all these rasams were shown and how she handled them. So BV is like u know showing how she deals with similar situations as an adult.

Except Sanchi CRAP I loved it.
Waise I love A's kick ass to Sanchi too

@Suchi - where was the contrast in the rasams? Did I miss some part?? Even Shiv didn't grasp the purpose of them...forget the audience.

Don't get me wrong...Am happy for AnSh...juss superbored at the lack of story and pathetic execution of many things of late especially romance. CVs appear to be sleepwalking or on vacation. Yesterday's was the only meaningful epi after a week of nothing.

true

after a HUGE no. of Rasams today's episode was the only one that was like Back on the theme thing.

But yaar .. BV are KNOWN to drag. So after SOO much Pain I guess... A's wedding they were bound to drag.

I cannot wait for tomorrow I think we will get more meaning ful epis soon.. not to mention the coming of sriti ...

so they do have a LOT of story to tell and it will be around Balika Vadhu's main theme.

I am just afraid they don't cut short our AnSH romance in all of this.
But honestly I am not keeping my hopes too High..


I think they will do justice. So far they have not let me down with AnSh Scenes... lets see

@contrast thing.. well the entering the house vs A's entering as a child... The sword moving plate thingy.. there Jaggu pulled the plate away from her where as Shiv gave it to her slowly.

She as a child did not know what putting the plates in saas's lap means.. now she knows...
yada yada yada


Today's epi teh way she handled Sanchi ..
vs

How she ran away when Jaggu scared her during Muh dikhayi when she was young.

There was a moment when she cries for a bicycle cause jaggu wanted one... and he was adamant as to why he was not getting presents..

I mean there are many...so the contrast is def. there

Suchi - I know yeh katchua show hai and they have story yet to tell...but, my complaint is that they have missed the mark with the rasams both in terms of content/purpose and romance.

That's not what I meant... Its just that BV CVs ve not connected the dots for the audience on the contrasts. They have not used FBs positively...done the side by side as they do😊 If they had had Sumi, DS, etc. recall some of those incidents while remember Anandi instead of Gehna stirring dal then these contrasts would have had MEANING.

Anjy brilliant post! His 'way of handling' has been my issue too.I am fed up of his repittive 'gift of my life' dialouges or constant praises abt beauty by both him and shekhars. There were an array of rasams but the meaning of rasams was not shown...they were not contrasted anywhere.I was surprised for the ring rasam bcos we had a great comparison tere - J too won in the ring rasam but dhoke se...he tricked her and she called him be-imaan.Here S won in all fair means.That could have been such a nice contrast.Even the unknotting string rasam has a beautiful meaning which cvs didnt find any use of explaining. To add to it what irks me is when the shekhars give those mechanical 'khush raho' ashirwads to A...I wish cvs made them a bit more innovative with their blessings.Why cant they bless her to to have an ever deepening bond with S...or her to grow herself and bring growth for the household...I mean show some innovation.
And the fbs...they never use them for ANSH...I was surprised that they used fbs for the kismat...kaynat promo but not the real wedding.And the sindoor scene...how I wud hv wished to see S adoring her from the behind when she puts her first sindoor...they didnt use that! I mean these are sure shot hits...plain beautiful scenes.Now would just expect that cvs dont mess up with the first night convo with "main aapka saath donga" alaap.I want him to tell her what this bond means for him.How he had always been afraid to get into a foundation as beautiful as marriage with a wrong partner...how he got the answers of all his confusions in her...I mean sumthing meaningful.Something to make her feel that she is not just desired but needed!

yeah I get what you mean Anjana and Malika

you are both right..

ther were sooo many scenes that they could have used to make it more meaningful

Not sure why they didn't though.

hmmm

I liked hte sindoor scene though.. I knew they would use that and I am glad they did.

rest i am not quite sure.

Perhaps they wanted to show a PURE AnSH only marriage ?
with no past ?
