Am back to 'home away from home' after really long....but life and its compulsions!!! Sigh!....only 24 hours in a day!!!!
My take on yesterday and today's episodes combined.....
Ok!!! So Shantanu Khandelwal has actually turned "Mahapurush"!!!!!
What a difference between then and now, yet again!!! "Mahapurush" then meant so much....I can best summarize my experience as the term bringing a smile to my face; now it's being rubbed into my face.....but a smile, far from it, Friends!!!!
Please don't get me wrong.....A showdown is not what what I meant, but how can a man in his right senses not even have something as a basic as "who???....what???....where????" with his wife on seeing such an ugly, downright disgusting MMS!!!!!🤢 Beats me completely....
Would surely have to be a "mahapurush" indeed!!!
CV's, its one thing to 'come of age'....something that was beautifully conveyed by Shantanu's "being there" moments during and post the Suraj/Sunny radio fiasco, and another to not be frustrated at all, especially given Shantanu's basic nature of getting all defensive when pushed to the brink!!!😕
Thumbs Up
26th Jan 10....The 'cool' Khandelwal family reunion of sorts....Loved the realistic touch when Shaan tells his mom "Thank God!! Aap toh tayyar hoke nahi aayi!!" Very real mother-son bonding, that!!!👏
27th Jan 10
Brilliant expressions by KT twice during the epi.....once at expressing his sheer delight on seeing Ehsaan Noorani....wonderful mix of surprise and ecstasy, really!!! And the second time, the wide range shown yet again on seeing the MMS!! Superb transition of anger, disgust, and disbelief!!!👏👏👏 Loved the whole thought process of him "speaking aloud" to dispel his fears.....only wish that realisation would dawn after some initial confrontation!!! Would have made him seem more 'human' and definitely 'Shaan'!!!
Yashu, way to go girl!! Did a splendid job during her phone conversation with Sam....the whole "lost in her own world" act superbly underplayed, but bang-on!!!👏👏👏
Loved the ShaNak moment when Shaan tells her that he had taught her the nitty gritties of a MMS!!! Yet again....completely "ShaNak"....straight from their hearts...straight to our hearts.....completely real!!!
Hua hai man bawra.....nice song....KTs Rockstar act totally bang-on....the body language completely in place!!!
Thumbs down
26th and 27th Jan 2010
Aesthetics or rather the lack of it!! For someone with an instinctive sense of style, the "Rockstar" ensemble for Shaan was a complete disaster!!! Silver shoes...took the cake, really!!!😆
Rahul's character.....totally, totally unconvincing.....right from his vengeance spree to the cause for his remorse!!! What a poorly scripted character, this!!! Sad, really for the anti-hero of the serial.....
Sam and Duck.....completely non-descript!!! Sam with her flat dialogue delivery, sad really!!!
Sunny....had said not so long ago that his 'acting' could put SRK to shame....Literally, quite the case!!!😉😆
Chalo, friends...aaj ke liye itna hi....
Kal ek naya din aur hopefully ek nayi shuruwaat.....liked Shaan's "getting himself to see reason" in the precap.....that's the Shaan we know and that's the Shaan we love....not the by default 'mahapurush' who seems to know it all!!
