I absolutely love the show still like they give these amazing episodes in between that I totally swoon.
But the overall track writing is something that puts me off.
It’s like when you zoom in you will find such magical moments but when you zoom out everything seems out of place.
One thing I want to mention is the bridge scene was utter brilliance and his sorry did win me over so a job well done makers.
I feel one drastic change they should have made from Mohor was to not include acp.
Uske wajah se shaurya ka character has gone for a toss. I feel his falling in love phase should have been executed without jealousy factor coming in.
Though the episode where he realises anokhi is whom he is describing was so brilliantly executed.
For me the best part of shaurya was How he had this aura of assertiveness along with sensitivity. He was what I consider an amazing mix between full blown mcp and a sensitive man who is actually spineless in real (think Shaan)
I wanted HIM to be the one guiding HER, since he is the more mature one but look at him now; that Masculine aura is totally gone. I am all up for women taking the lead and I want anokhi to as well but in the future, in other matters But here I really wanted it to be shaurya. That only seemed natural.
Shaurya doesn’t seem like a man anymore that manly aura around him without his ott toxicity was what I loved about him; now he is total man child; and personally such men annoy me in reel and in real life.
His insecurities could have been handled in a much better way while still maintaining that charm around him.
Not the shaurya for whom I made my first ever post in this forum.
But out of all this,
The worst part is I feel anokhi’s side of pain is totally forgotten?!? And it is happening for quite some time now. Just one scene here and there aur khatam?
They don’t give her any monologues to express her pain. I mean her childhood trauma is no less than shaurya’s; it is equally disturbing as well; no focus whatsoever on her trauma.
And they portrayed it so well when she was in Kapurthala; city Badal ke trauma kam ho jata hai kya?
I get ki anokhi is someone who doesn’t tend to dwell in the past but that doesn’t mean she hasn’t felt the trauma and doesn’t have her shares of insecurities.
she is falling in love though gradually but At least give us some monologues naa; what is going on inside her head w.r.t her past, shaurya,Feelings, college, dreams, something?!
Shaurya gets so many monologues ( and I love it) but give the same to anokhi too.
Like how else do you expect audience to connect to her?
They need to give scope for deba to perform;
Yes, There are actors who with whatever little they get elevate the character but they are seasoned and quite experienced.
She is not; so writers should rightly take the effort to give her equally well written monologues that they give to shaurya.
Kv’s acting is a big part that connects us with shaurya but I feel even bigger role is shaurya’s well written monolgues; while forget well written, anokhi doesn’t even get one.
I feel they are hellbent on making anokhi a Rehab centre for shaurya while ignoring her own trauma and her own need to feel that security and love.
I really hope they don’t go that way and catch themselves before delving too much into it.
I hope this was a constructive criticism atleast for the most part; not hating on the show at all; infact it is still much much better that other shows but in aastha’s words: shikayatein bhi unhi se hoti hai jinse pyaar hota hai.
This was in my mind since anokhi has come back to Chandigarh so thought of getting it out of my system.
