I know everyone's ecstatic that Suraj has finally come out and said the words. But somehow, I felt curiously flat after yesterday's Wo Ai Ni. Maybe it's just me. I understand that Sandy needs to be shown as admitting her love to Suraj before he wins the WTC title. But something's missing. For me anyway.
1. Suraj says he has begun to fall in love with her. 😕. Really? Sandhya's emotions were always a mystery to me but looks like I've completely misread Suraj too. Was he just having a crush on her all this time then? Confused. Or did he mean he was falling deeper in love? Or what?
2. The preceding Sandhya in a policewoman's outfit scene. It showed that despite all the closeness , there's still a huge gap between Suraj and Sandhya. The IPS dream. He laughed. Not maliciously. But perhaps dismissively? He doesnt understand. The CVs are usually good with this sort of thing (closing loops), they wouldnt randomly stick that scene in there, would they? Especially not before a momentous wo ai ni. There must be some reason why... Perhaps it's to help Suraj figure out the clues? Maybe we'll see it again when Suraj has a flashback revelation.
But this scene somehow bled into the wo ai ni confession, tingeing it with some sort of sadness for me.
3. Maybe it's the bright sunshine in Singapore, maybe it was the skyscraper in the background, maybe the actors couldnt convince me that this was love. It couldnt compare to the lovely lamplit scenes in the GG room. Or the emotionally wrenching mahaepisode. Or the sweetest moments hanging clothes. Or a " kaun kehta hai". Even the diyaAa in the background couldnt lift it for me as it usually does. It seemed ermmm...ummm...kya kahe... off kilter?
4.I somehow pictured Sandy as a very direct person. I understand sharmana. But Sandy will be coming with balloons and cute kids in an hour's time? I would buy it if it was in EHMMBH but for a more mature couple? Starplus catering for all age groups? 🤔
SurYa's Wo Ai Ni, of course, is loooads better than all the others out there (another serial showed an "I love you 🤬 " too which was so violent that I'm considering complaining to the broadcasting standards commission, that's how disturbing it was).Now that thankfully the WTC is almost over, I expected more, much more. The special SurYa flavour. Maybe it's just me. I should enjoy what's happening instead of hoping for the old magic. Nothing can stay the same forever after all. Let me know what you think. Or not 😊
Please note: Not a "frustration" topic. Just a "wondering" topic. And maybe a little sadness. Before you tell me to go there.
