Moronic script and loose ends

I was watching the wedding episodes a few days back and just marveling at the chemistry of the lead pair and the freshness in those episodes. Kritika has an amazing timing for comedy and spontaneity that is a perfect counterfoil for Mohnish's underplay.

But for the past few days the show has been in free fall over a precipice of moronic script writing. I know that this is a work of fiction but is common sense also now a fictional commodity these days for the scriptwriters? Consider this...Which bank can just withdraw a loan once issued for no apparent reason? You have a grown up neurosurgeon telling her brother idiotic BS that even if you are fired, I can feed you and your wife for the rest of your life? Oh really...and what about their son who has been shown in two episodes so far. Guess his mother has a full time job of scheming and plotting and is too busy to look after him. And the bank manager brother cant even retort back at this stupid sentence and ask his sister to back off? Just think how idiotic that sentence is ...even if it is there to show how angry she is...the brother can say...That is absurd and I can see how angry you are but there are other ways to address your problem.

And Dr Ashutosh, great brain surgeon and all... could well use a spinal transplant and grow some spine. The writers have created this weak, impish caricature of a doctor who cant profess his own love, cant use common sense to use a mobile and now can't grow a pair and give it back to a lady who is openly professing hatred for his love. All he does is stand and smile and then thank her with a stupid grin for having brought them closer? I mean.. which planet are these writers or CVs or whatever you call them from? A lady says...How dare you on your face and all you do is twiddle your thumbs and lecture her the paeans of love and 12 years and 12 seconds?

Come to think of it...it is quite funny..the lead surgeon is caught up in a love triangle involving a past intern and the second lead surgeon who also manages to abscond to Mumbai, a picnic or her brothers bank as and when the need arises...the administrator spends the whole day designing costumes...I thought Anji was hired to design...not draw in front of him...It's all right to bring finished designs to the hospital. No one said you have to draw on the spot like a Shankar's drawing competition. I mean..heaven help such a hospital. And they could actually try showing some other doctors also once in a while to reiterate that while the top 3 are lost in love and revenge, there is someone sane enough to run the hospital.

I just found the whole sequence from the dargah on absurd. Ok...they profess their love,...fine...but no explanation from Ashutosh about his ouster of Nidhi and neither does she care to know? And having come to the tea stall, Nidhi who must have been on cloud 9 starts lecturing on the beauty of the word "sach" and what it means in life? Lady...what's wrong with you? And not once do they discuss what is to come next and the Malika angle? Malika has spanked Ashutosh left and right verbally in his cabin,...Nidhi has had a run in right outside and they just meet and have lunch without even a mention of the storm brewing around them? Wow...just wow.The less said about the jungle scene the better...someone in the writers dept. had a brain freeze that day or was fasting for the Jan Lokpal Bill and was maybe famished.. no sane person would write that crap.

Next day after the dargah...Nidhi is 180 degrees in behaviour and grinning from ear to ear and making parathas...and baba...kargil war hero, Colonel and all...just says..."badal chat gaye"...really? Your daughter is see sawing like a wild out of control pendulum in her moods and all you can think of is either purse your lips or ask everyone but the person concerned what is going on?

And this last point really really irks me...what the hell is up with the extremely poorly enacted buwaji calling the help as manhoos? And the colonel is ok with it? And that too in front of an educated doctor on his birthday? Is manhoos having some parallel meaning that we are unaware of?

I know as I said before this is fiction...but when you see the maturity of Dhoop Kinare...you begin to wonder did common sense take a collective nosedive in December on KTLK.?

Agree to your post word for word. This show is going downhill at such a rapid pace that it really is hard to comprehend what exactly is going on. Some of the stupidity was negligible before but now the tom-foolery is so in your face that you can't look beyond it. And even MB's acting is proving to be a major disappointment. The confrontation between Mallika-Ashutosh was AWFUL, there is is no other word to describe it. She's popping her eyes out of their sockets and howling like a maniac but all Ashutosh does is smile-grin-laugh? One retarded expression plastered on his face while Mallika is erupting like a volcano? And why in God's name did he even proclaim his love for Nidhi to her? He very well knows of Mallika's hatred for Nidhi, he bloody fired her for Mallika's sake and he is also well aware of Mallika's feelings towards him..yet he stands there grinning like an idiot announcing how he is in love with a girl half his age. God! And hail the writers of this show, they left the best bit till the last. Mallika confesses to everything she has done to keep Ashu-Nidhi apart YET, despite of hearing everything from the horses mouth, WHAT does Ahsutosh do? Oh well...he gives a serious expression for half a freakin second and then laughs like she cracked a joke and then THANKS her...I mean, he freakin THANKS her for what she has done. Is this guy plain crazy or an idiot? I thought he would be appalled with Mallika, would be disgusted with her antics, would be hurt with all that she has done and feel the need to protect Nidhi, but oh no, he just stands there smiling like some gawky teenager and thanks the woman who hates the person he loves...What NONSENSE? Its so embarrassing to watch an apparently educated, sophisticated, experienced and knowledgeable character such as Ashutosh banging away at car engines, running around to buy t-shirts, and behaving as if he has no common sense whatsoever. Although MB is not entirely to be blamed...this entire issue with single frame shots is getting more apparent. I don't think his reaction would have been the way it was if Rukhsar was actually shooting opposite him in the confrontation scene. Its disgusting how some peoples inability to manage the actors time and organize the schedule properly leads to such dumb scenes being presented to the audience. Despite that, no one can take away the credit for bad scene from the juvenile writers of this show. They have seemingly lost all their creativity and also their ability to think. The dargah and jungle scenes have been as bad as if not worse than the Mallika-Ashu scene. No explanation, no sense, no depth, no meaning, no impact...the jungle scene was the heights of moronic writing. Wake up you neanderthals! What is with the nonsensical writing and who exactly is writing this garbage? Grow a brain for God's sake!


And I've already stopped expecting anything from the "hospital setting" of this show. The senior surgeon is either flipping or signing files or running in and out of the hospital to meet his girlfriend. The administrator of the hospital is busy gawking at the new designer sitting in his office drawing something. Another senior doctor is getting counseling from her jobless and brainless bhabi. And the best of them all is the awesome intern who is apparently a very good doctor but has been in and out of 2 hospitals in less than 6 months and is now eating maggi all day and doing awarapanti with the other useless person in her house. Horrible! What a despicable depiction of doctors! And specially Nidhi, an educated girl is being shown to be as jobless as a beggar on the street and honestly has no ambition to get her career on track after finding her "love".


Ugh...the buaji, mansukhani, suhasini, rohan scenes have become so repetitive and boring that even if you fast forward through their scenes in one episode, it doesn't matter because you find them doing exactly the same thing in the next episode. It is hard to sit through even the Ahsutosh-Nidhi scenes now because it is so poorly written and executed in an even more pathetic manner. This show isn't even 0.5% of what DK was. The maturity, the subtleness, the sincerity has all gone for a toss. Seriously wonder if things in this show will ever pick up...the writers are really pushing the audiences patience now, if they don't get their act together in this new year then God help this show.

Very well said by everyone. Cs have shown everyone in the show so ambition-less for their career. For instance, Rohan: He is an MBA from IIM but only thing he is doing from past one month is eating noodles at midnight. 😕

Well said 👏..

In general everyone's attitude in the show sucks big time and that's screwing up the characterization something bad...

1. Ashu's lackadaisical attitude towards Mallu after being reprimanded by her several times like a schoolteacher scolds a student... Once that tirade in his office and then the recent "How dare you"? episode... How can any man take it lying down, friend or not? And why is she even his friend... nothing in their attitudes towards one another suggests they are friends.. collegues, yes, Friends, no.. there's no comfort level between them.. They're so so inconsistent... first he's mad at her after the tirade, then sarcastic and don't-carish and now suddenly she's his best friend again and he wants her to be happy for him!!! Sheesh!! Confusing to the core!!😕
2. Nidhi's attitude towards life in general... very lackadaisical.. doesn't care about her job, or the fact that her baba's blood, sweat and tears have made her what she is. She's either moping over Ashu or drooling over him... which is all very fine for a love story, but can't she have an occupation while she's doing that.😡
3. Anji-Ranga closeted together all day designing hospital uniforms. Either Anji is a very very bad designer and her designs are all getting nixed, or the hospital doesn't want uniforms, they want a doc-nurse fashion line ala Donna Karan or something with a spring, summer and fall collection!!! 😛
And what does Ranga have to do with it, that she needs to spend so much time there? 😉 All's fair in the name of love and Hindi-serial scripting!!! 😆
4. In general everyone's attitude about their jobs. They should re-define their jobs now
Ashu: File gazer and resident story-teller 😆
Mallu: Barger into Ashu's kebbin 😡
Rohan: Noodle eater and mechanic with MBA 😉
Armaan: Just eater and TV watcher/ couch potato (now that his job a cupid is done) 😛
Nidhi: Culinary surveyer and statistician (aapne kya khaya? aapko gobi pasand hai?) plus make-over expert (with a fetish for garish T-shirts!) 😉
Ranga: Anji Riler and Casanova's illegitimate heir 😆
Anji: Doodler in the name of fashionista and Ranga's muse 😊

Only Chote sarkar and Sue are sticking to their respective professions.. of Cook and Mardology professor!!! 😆
