@ pink1, yeah Saras has been putting his hand on her head quite often these past few weeks, like a blessing, or ...I am not sure its not a reaction to that Afghan hound hairstyle that was in full form today! One always pats a nice dog on its head in just the same way. 😆

@pink2 - I'm very chuffed with this ulti ginti - it's a new addition to my vocab, and I'm irrationally entertained by it!

Ok now, confession time!

I thought the Saras-Kumud scene today was quite well-written, (take a 👏 from me, you #SCWriters that I never have a good word for!) AND extremely poorly executed by JW and even GR. I dont blame the actors, they probably stopped looking for any sense in these scripts but todays lines had some hidden life in them that stayed well-hidden. Who on earth is the director???? Did they stop paying him/her?

Ok, so saw the SOTD again. Umm, I think it was awkwardly written. I thought Kumud needed to apologise to him for not having listened to him, he for having walked out on her, not for not liking that house. The whole point is it was not the house, it was the fact that they allowed Prashant to come between them, and they were stupid enough to think that they could catch a murderer by a ghost prank.

So, they missed the whole point there.

I also did not like the line when Kumud says when we leave home, there's trouble. Amnesia from writers? All the previous problems have been in RN. Kusum burning the house, Chandni bazar, pramaad and his burning the factory, Kumud's accident - all in RN.

I am referring to the part where when she's putting that ointment on him, and suddenly starts speaking very fast, covering up her reactions to the whole trauma etc... prompting Saras to hold her close, and then first Saras and then Kumud each speak of how they felt at the worst moments. JW looked sleepy/deaf throughout, and even GR failed to lift the scene in the way he normally does!

Yes, they were dull there, I guess they were exhausted from the events. But what didn't work for me was the very paternal way in which he hugs her. And the lack of any reaction from her.

There was also some odd words put into Saras' mouth that went like this -

"meri ek baat hamesha yaad rakhna... zindagi mein jitne bhi mushkilein aayein hum usse bhaag nahin sakte, humein kabhi na kabhi uska saamna karna hi padega!"

That was a completely misplaced line, where did that come from? Seemed out of context. Also not very relevant, because actually by returning to RN, they are running away, aren't they?

Excuse me, was that meant for Kumud? Or for the mutinous fans of GR/Saras?...😛 😕 😆

Confessions Over. I rest my case!

Great case happy, but I had problems most with the direction - very unemotional treatment, esp the ointment and the hugs, second with the writing, the writer missed the point I felt, and the last with the acting, that still was the best part of the scene, IMO. Even dull and sleepy, the two are always good to watch. Compare this to kabir dressing gulabos wound and you'll see the difference - it was such a dull scene, whereas that was supposedly a romantic scene- the actors are as it is limited and yesterday director ji too seemed to be having an off day.

All this trending n petition is fine but I worry that us fans are hindering Gautam's progression...he may need to move on from the bakwaas he is made to shoot but why is it so hard for the channel to call it a day and end SC with dignity?

Why drag it senselessly! End it And let pple move on with happy memories! Aise maut mandra rahi hai humaare sir pe it's torture.

Arshi,

Saw the episode after a 3 day break.

Saras Kumud scene was written well and executed well.

I liked the expressions n the intensity. The dialogues were good too. Except for the scene where he puts hand on her head.

It was the rest of the scenes that the actors looked dull. Added to it was a general dullness in the set that I always complain about.

Saras has to say sorry. No matter what. Even if he just had a close brush with death.

But the star of the day for me was Danny. Adorable and full of energy. Varun Kapoor is consistently raising the bar for himself. His scenes are never boring.

Khoti Kaki is so lovey-dovey.

Its few more days or weeks? I have gotten over the addiction already. Totally ready.

But Linda, the story should revolve around him na. I don't want to see kabir and gulabo or Danny and kusum as the central characters.

That was exactly the part where I felt the director (and of course the actors) got the writer all wrong. I think those lines were just Kumud stumbling over herself and repeating nonsense about superficial Topic A (who's to blame) until Saras realises that she's still trying to deal with underlying Topic B (the fear & trauma). And that's when he gently stops her in her tracks and start talking abt the trauma. It was kind of obvious to me, and am sure GR would have not missed it, But... there appears not to be a lot of communication happening on set these days, so that's how sad their state is these days! Cant wait for this Drama to end. Our show is dead already, RIP.

Yeah, absolutely his hugs and pats are now paternal, pet-ownerly 😃... take your pick! And have mostly been passive rather than passionate, from her side.

Yes, that one foxed me... KP thinks its part of preparing Kumud for "The End of Saras' Track!!"

@Underline, Exactly. I suspect they stopped paying the director, or he/she's moved to MK sets to be AB's assistant, leaving behind some innocent person to do the job.

btw, the pink attack was back, even gulabos chot was pink. I actually expected a pink bandaid to be put on her, maybe they couldn't find any! So I guess the only person who was in full form last night was our dress designer Pinky.

For me, all other pink was lost in the "raunak" of The One Whose Track is Ending :)
