The bar keeps getting lower and lower..

Relationship/characters/romance ke hopes get darker and darker.!

My tolerance level rises higher and higher...

Just that lead actor gets brighter and brighter..!!

If the actually wrote a scene where Kumud walks away, that's the Last Straw... I dont even want to watch if I have to FF a S&K scene.

This CB venture is now an exercise in nostalgia, mourning for something that is irretrievably lost... So here is some nostalgia special for you... p.s. The show needs an End By date, for sure...

Its Tagore (inspired by Auld Lang Syne) so quite something else... with English translation (credit: Coffee&Chats Blog)

Purano shei diner kotha
Bhulbe kii re
Hai o shei chokher dekha, praaner kotha
Sheikii bhola jaaye

Aaye aar ektibar aayre shokha
Praner majhe aaye mora
Shukher dukher kotha kobo
Praan jodabe tai

Mora bhorer bela phuul tulechi, dulechi dolaaye
Bajiye baanshi gaan geyechi bokuler tolai
Hai majhe holo chadachadi, gelem ke kothaye,
Abaar dekha jodi holo shokha, praner majhe aaye"

And here goes the English Translation:

The memories of the good old days
Can you ever forget it?
It was seen by our eyes, was voice of our life
Can it ever be forgotten?

Come back once more, my friend
Come and be a part of my life
We will talk of smiles and tears
And will feel very good about it

Together we have plucked flowers in the dawn
Together we have spent hours on the swing
Together we have played the flute
Sang the songs under the shade
We parted in between, never knew where we went
If again I see you someday,

Come and be a part of my life.

Beautiful happy, such a lovely song, in Hemant Kumars voice, and the soothing Rabindra Sangeet!

This show as it is today, doesn't deserve any comparison with Tagores creation!

Ok here are my thoughts. The episode was good overall. The bigger questions of narrative, emotion, love-stort etc are anyways lost.

Looking at it as a standalone episode, there were some good performances. GR was great everywhere. Right emotions and very restrained acting. The way he talked to his mother was touching. Today was Saras n GR's day after a long time(he is good but today he was great)

The sore point for me was VC n Gun's dialogues.

Saras-Kumud scene. It was ok. Lacked emotional intensity. But last shot where they try to calm each other was good. Their scenes have taken a hit after marriage and there is nothing new. Wish it was like what you said Arshi.

Aditi said our tolerance levels are higher and the standards are lower each day. Very true. Keeping that in mind, today there was some intensity over all.

There were some good points made. VC expressing concern about Kabir doing something wrong and Saras saying he wont let him. So they are all aware of the negativity and bad intentions in him.

Arshi, I am really surprised and awed by your ability to still come up with the bytes post. Today when Saras did not eat I was aghast at the way Kumud behaved. This is not the SC we loved to watch. is this theway a girl who married her love behaves with him when he is in need? No hug, no emotion only detective mode. Sorry to say I believe SC is now a lost cause, not worth my time,

For me it was a very bad episode Santhi

So we had Saras challenging Guman, and then blah blah blah

Some really bad dialogues and then something something

Saras was really worried and some kalika nonsense, some Danny nautanki

Some close shots of Kumud

Some more bad dialogues

And then Saras getting restless

And then something else ...
