Arshicsji, it seems you are in full form now and it shows in your heartfelt and wonderful lines. Today's episode was well-executed as well as reasonable. It is one fine instance to show that it is perfectly feasible to write and pull off good 'fillers'. It also indicates that these fillers need not always be fun and light-hearted but can also be meaningful and engaging. These are not of tedious or 'dragging' type but serve as a welcome break in-between tracks. The cvs were able to sustain the 'feel-good factor' of the previous episode. Today kumud displayed an ease and naturalness. The writers should fully restore her inherent and distinctive characteristics and also her cheerful and vibrant personality(kumud of old - too much to hope for? ). Oh God, what a man of virtue and integrity Mr. Saraswathichandra is. There is a famous quote - when the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. This man is essentially living by example and constitutes a role model for others. He is the true personification of love (in the best sense of the term). And how he is always there for the love of his life (his wife) through thick and thin, no matter what the circumstances are, is simply amazing. When she has a difficult time it is almost as though he can feel it without her ever saying a word. Sometimes just offering to be there for her and genuinely meaning it means more than coming up with the solution. There is no replacement for true companionship and understanding. Both have established this facet of their key attributes in various circumstances (of course it is always overwhelming on saras's part). Hence it didn't cause great surprise when he decided in favour of kumud's occupation and situation as against his own professional commitment. I am really intrigued by the imminent crisis the school is facing and the revelation of truth behind it. Saras and VC scene was very amusing and evoked laughter followed by a sweet touching convo of samud. They both hide things from each other but always in the best interest of the other person. Cvs wanted to bid farewell to LN, another good and important character. But the adieu was not befitting considering the worth and merit of his character. The actor had a significant role to play in the past and he did full justice to it. He made a come back amidst huge expectations but was not offered anything substantially. Cvs plan to introduce new characters in the forthcoming tracks, so they may be in the process of cutting down a few characters from the current lot. Today all the scenes had the right emotional quotient (short, yet apt) and struck the right chord with the audience. We can only hope that the same quality is retained in the show in future.
