1. I am nothing without my father's name.. I have been called a handicapped.- What happened to '' aaj se mein apni ma ka beta? '' Is that nothing to you, huh? Saras?2. Rightey raas nahi aate..- Konse rishtey? he now knows he lost his mother not because he is jinxed or something, but because of his father.. aur kon bacha? dad? didn't he himself say he is blinded in Guman's love..? what about all the new relationships he made back in RN, who love him so much? Mausi ma, Vidya kaka, mai...and Kumud?Nothing Saras said today, made sense, so I will assume he's brain dead at the moment.. he needs Sunny or a psychiatrist right now.. and I am not kidding about the later.. Its a pity that he has been time and again needing someone to pull him out of his own crisis.. If only Saraswati had not let the mother in her loose to the wife...weakness does seem like a trait in both..Thumbs up to Gautam for portraying GMT's Saras so well , assuming this portion is lifted word by word from the novel..Felt extremely bad for Kumud.. Jennifer was brilliant today.. the disbelief, shock, pleas, pain and the shout of indignation in the end when she literally roars, '' jawab dena hoga tumhe'' was very well done.. reminded me of the old Kumud.. also makes me wonder if the inherent pride of the character will be instrumental in her complying to her family's decision to get married to Pramadhan.
just caught this epi..
completely agree with vaishali.
kumud practically listed out all the promises he made, about her love for him, how she has chosen him not his family, how she will walk with him, how she will be shattered, her pitiable personal state on his rejection and lastly about her family's state after his rejection (desperately repeating the same sentence which started the whole saga between them...come and tell my parents yourself...just so that he comes over at least once)...and Mr. Boo Hoo won't even hear what she is saying...so immersed is he in his own trip of self-pity!!
I guess in the novel too he was a vacillating and weak character...and used the fight with LN to back out of his impending marriage with kumud so that he could wallow in his ideas of social service...and here too the CVs have tried to portray him as such wallowing in self-pity...sort of mujhe mere haal pe chhod do, mujhe tumse kuch bhi na chahiye types...😡
smrth catapult theory coming to bite us back hard...
so nope..just do not get his behaviour now at all...and just do not buy the he is in a dark place theory too...its just not the same when you have someone screaming let me help you...we are in this together...
...to tell the truth ...now I don't think if he even deserves kumud's love...and would actually support a HDDCS angle with her new hubby...this guy does not deserve this and he has definitely not earned the right to her undying love...
...also don;t know how the CVs will bring about a love angle back between these two...after what is happening kumud will just burn out any feelings she has for him...
...lastly fantastic acting by gautam and jennifer...they were so much into their characters today...you just looked and felt for them as saras and kumud...
For saras here's a very fitting line from The Shawshank Redemption:
" A whole life blown away in the blink of an eye. Nothing left but all the time in the world to think about it."
