hey all!
18th JANUARY, 2011.
so definitely a huge step up from yesterday's episode. interesting to watch and also makes way for some hot debate and predictions which we all love here at the CC and the forum😉
i am sorry but i am gonna be the bad guy today and say that the first scene was a bit incohesive. maybe, since this track started all i have thought about was the shanak sunny confrontation and it was too uderplayed for my liking. what i liked very much however, was khanak's visible discomfort. i liked that it was not heaving and sobs galore but just immennse uneasiness on her part. like she knows that this man is not sooraj but still gets disturbed in his presence because he looks so much like him. i loved shanak's silent support of each other, whether through looks or holding hands. they are together. they feel together. i think shanak will be eventually fine. just one thing, what was the need of sam in this scene again? apart from making faces at shaan regarding sunny? i mean, she knew shanak were unnerved and i was confused by her indifferent behaviour. sunny/harpreet is cute. how can a character be so chaloo and yet so likeable at the same time?😆
then the BR scene! shanak in blue! awww! it was so cheesy but then with shanak even cheesy looks kinda cute😳 i am still in two minds regarding whether this whole thing is rahul or shaan's plan. i haven't been able to figure it out yet so i think i'll wait for the track to unfold and find out. but all of you have put forward very interesting views on it and it could go either one of those ways. loved how shanak were holding on too each other at the end. shows that their emotional bond is getting stronger.
khanak's emotional turmoil was presented very well today. she's feeling confused, scared, broken altogether at once. her act of paying up sunny makes sense now considering how emotionally disturbed her state of mind is.. like i said before, depression and pychological problems are very common nowadays and if the CVs are planning to explore this, i am definitely excited and willing to watch it.
dare i say it? i think i will. YM is one under rated actress. both on tv and on this forum. there i said it. *gasp* no but seriously, you can actually feel and see that she is constantly working on her skills and trying to get better everyday and that's the one right way to go for an actor. never stop learning and trying. she was understated yet so powerful today. that is what i like best about her i think, making the audience 'feel' for her w/o the aid of glycerine and more-than-needed histronics. not to mention, she is more or less very consistent in her performance. she can go bald or wear rags for all i care. if she acts like this, all else is forgiven, from my side at least. kt supported her to the core and yasharan together very rarely goes wrong! nothing ever beats that! i liked kt best in the last scene though. harpreet is pretty much already into his character. manish and priyanka did not have much to do today so really can't comment on them.
@SYS
yes i have praised the post proposal scene but i never meant the post proposal shanak scene. i mean the scene with khanak alone in the kitchen. the bartan trowing may have been a bit much, but the self talk she has in that scene was very well done.
secondly, i don't gush yaar!😆 it takes a lot to make me gush. i am an avid watcher of classic and foreign language films. i don't get impressed easily because i regularly watch such good actors at their best from all over the world cinema. but i will give credit where's its due. i never ever overrate an actor, but i try my best to not under rate either😊 when kt and ym impress me, i say so. it's as simple as that.
