My overall feeling remains at disappointment.The CV's know they have a good thing going with Saras-Kumud and their whole rishta-saga. They probably also have an end-date target (maybe) until when they have to prolong the show. Other than that, I am afraid they dont have a clue, and it shows! 😔 You only have to look at Kalika's many uses in this show to have an idea about the extent of clueless-ness.Multi-purpose Kalika - she's even more versatile than GR the actor 😲- may even have been a Swiss knife in a previous janam!-- Check out this list, and add in case I missed out anything..😊a) maid at BD's house, daughter of Moorkhdas, mistress of "chote-seth"b) schemer, snoop, inquisitor of Kumud- Saras - Kusumc) failed murderer - her attempted stabbing of Kumud in the Desai haveli was foiled by hamara herod) tripper-up of Kumud - Pramad on temple steps!e)conspirator with Pramad in His murder-attemptf) deaf-mute old-maid in Saras-Danny's house/hotel/whateverg) instigator of public humiliation for Desais in the Diwali market placeh) Reason for Kumud's epiphany (Saras mera pyaar hai! -really? 😲 we didnt know...😆)i) Blood-donor for Kumud, a female Shylock!j) Bahu-cum-dhobi of the Desais, Bhabhi to Kumud! Agony aunt to Kusum!j) Soup-maker 😉 in the Desai kitchen, self-proclaimed Khiladi No. 1Soni Singh is a very competent actor, no doubt about that! The CV's have not stinted in using her talents, in fact they have been so focussed on her that reserves of talent in other parts of the cast have been ignored. Never mind that this strategy has left credibility of the story in tatters. Ek chaku se sab kaam chala sakte ho to baki sab ko rehne do... Kyun takleef karein?Even a master like SLB has admitted he had to exert himself to produce the first episodes of SC that were gems... Doosre logon ko to aur bhi mehanat karna padega na, agar kuch yaadgaar dikhaana hai to...Tab tak, hum bas khayali pulao se kaam chalaaenge...
Happychappy, kya bola hai, dil ka dard khol diya.
Episodes main hum khud hi context dhoondh ke khush ho lete hain,
SLBs interview was so telling, such a reflection on why quality is so poor in TV shows today.
At the risk of getting another warning, I will make al point. The last three days, there was no star plus in my room, so I was watching other channels as it is when I am away from home, alone in a hotel room, no internet, so no catching up with work, mails etc, TV is only recourse I have.
I watched a lot of channels and a lot of shows over the last 3 days, even the popular historical.
They all were identical, change the names and costumes and setting, there was no difference in content.
Close your eyes, beep out the names, and you wouldn't know which show was on!
Bas Saras Kumud se fascination sa hai, toh chal raha hai, baki sab toh kuch nahi hai.
