Thanks Angie. No problem. I thought about waiting for you. But then it was a nice episode. As long as one sees the humor in absurdities, it becomes bearable to write. Otherwise, who can analyze such a show where characters and story change every week.
Today was Baby Bhasmasur birthday! Happy Birthday to Baby Bhasmasur and look naughty naughty baby what did he do...he did not recognise Papa fruitcake...awww...Baby Bhasmasur what did you do? Pappa Fruitcake's spiritual connection with you...what happened to that...
You know Misti this did not occur to me until you and CD pointed it out. But this is one great punishment for Papa fruitcake. Also you were right about fruitcake. He was acting like a concerned Papa. I am so glad that he forgot Papa. You know he would be drawn to Mommy Phuljhari and would be demanding her undivided attention. He would throw a tantrum when Papa tries to talk to Phuljhari. Baby bhasmasur, I am looking forward to that.
Anyway Angie you were right that he does look like a 3-4 year old and not a 11 year old...so can I have my dream of baby bhasmasur in diapers with a soother in his mouth...wonder will he ask his new foster mom Mommy Phuljhari to change his diapers...Kabutarni should say this "Phuljhari as your duty you have to look after your child husband and that involves giving him baths"...in front of Papa fruitcake. Wonder what he will do after he hears this...I mean Mommy Phuljhari and Baby Bhasmaurs unique relationship.
Oh this would be priceless. Actually, it would be more fun if he insists on taking bath only from Mommy Phuljhari and asks her to tuck him in the night and sing him a song. This along with him forgetting Papa Fruitcake would drive Fruitcake nuts. He would forget his promise of keeping 10 feet distance from her(the restraining order would be forgotton) and just starts following Phuljhari on her mission to take care of Baby.
Comment-I actually liked Rohan forgetting Dev...poetic justice. Dev was very arrogant in his thought that Rohan is the most important person in his life and that person has now forgotten him. He took away the most important person from Radhikas life and the same thing has now happened to him...
Yes, now that you pointed it out. I like this happening to Dev. I want other things to happen to him too. Since Dadaji is important to him too, even Dadaji should start treating Radhika as the most important thing once he starts getting better. Radhika needs to act indifferent towards Dev and I hope somebody gives her this advice at least indirectly. Only then Dev would realize what it is to lose important people in your life.
They are also turning the clock back here to maybe give the adult Dev chance to view things differently... But could not understand that after everyone realised that Rohan did not recognise Dev and the doctor told them that he has gone back to his childhood (don't know how doctor came to know the exact age),
Yes, I think that is the reason for turning the clock back to 12 years. But the doctor knowing it was too hilarious. This was the first conversation of Rohan and doctor knew at once about Rohan's age. At least, they could have shown that doctor did the tests and talked to Rohan and asked his age and other stuff which made them realize that he has forgotton 12 years of his life.
why were the others shocked that he did not recognise Radhika? Was the adult Radhika there in his childhood?
That was so silly. Everyone including Radhika was shocked when just previously he had only recognized Maheswari and Padma. So why would he know Radhika when he doesn't know Dev and Viraath.
The precap was the funniest scene of the episode...the scene is in a hospital room with a serious patient on the bed...and a banshee screeching at the top of her lung capacity and the doctor was just standing there patting the patients head...Never seen a hospital like this that everyone can come and start screeching whenever they want to...and the doctor standing there.
I am telling these hospitals in CBland are amazing. In fact, the doctor could be mistaken that probably Rohan didn't lose his mind because of the accident but he inherited his mother's genes who has gone mental for last two days. Why would you scream like that in front of your sick child? Poor Rohan was getting scared of Banshee. I think now he will be screaming, "Mummy, don't hurt that pretty girl. I like her and I want her to hold my head in her lap..."
The editing at the start of the episode was horrible...there was no continuity between the end of yesterday's episode and the beginning of todays.
I know suddenly there were these two walking or one walking like a chauvanist pig and other following him meekly.
Radhikas grovelling is within her character...her 12 year old marriage is the only truth in her life and she is clinging in to it...her only goal in her life is attaining this KK and she is not thinking of anything else...The dharm she keeps on talking about is patnidharma (or he version of patnidharma)and not dharma, but the creative have again messed up their message due to poor dialogues...Wonder what else is she ready to do to get KK as her husband...
That's why she needs some wise counsel, otherwise by being desperate for this abusive person, she is inviting more abuse. Maybe baby Rohan is good for her. He will divert her attention from Dev and she can eventually learn to ignore him.
As for Dev he is projecting whatever treatment he has got from this family onto Radhika...what is he feeling so guilty about? He is taking it out on Radhika...in one way the abused as become the abuser in times of stress. That's what also happens in real life...if a person has been abused in the past in stressful circumstances he or she will take it out on the person whom they actually consider their own...its a very vicious and destructive circle the people usually fall in.
Well, that is the only explanation that suits his behavior. But will they ever show him repenting? They never showed that with Radhika of CB1. In the end, it became something that one does to pay their debts to their adopted families. So chunnu munnu don't go into abusive and abused relationships. Then why show such a behavior. All audience feel is extreme irritation at the lead character and then they wait for some closure where there would be some justice. But you never see that.
As for the depiction of Dev in this way...all for TRPs...majority of the top shows have weak male leads...majority of the male leads do treat their wives, the female leads very badly...in fact Angie CB2 is similar to their 9.00pm show in many ways. It has worked in the other shows but I do not know how much is it going to work here...Dev's main competitor is not another lead in any other show but Dev in CB1...
That's why I was never attracted to any other soap prior to CB1. The weak male characters or for that matter female characters do not interest me. I liked CB1 because Dev's character was so wonderful and strong. Even Avinash mentioned in all his interviews that he got such a fan following because audience loved Dev. It is the fondness for Dev and Radhika that brought this show back and it is that same fondness which is keeping this show ahead of other zee shows in better time slots despite its weak script and repetitious story. So if you destroy either Dev or Radhika, then the audience would leave in droves.
So I do not know how much the TRP generating audience will take to Devs almost abusive behaviour towards Radhika.
Yeah, my point above.
As for dadajis and badi bahus talk...I am bored of the same dialogues from badi bahu...
This is way too boring. They repeat dialogues that they shouldn't and don't show monologues that they should and here I am talking about Dev, Radhika and Dadaji.
By the way the story has changed again...until few days back they showed her wanting to transfer everything to her name and today it was her son's name.
I was wondering the same thing. For 12 years they showed Maheswari wanting the wealth for herself and didn't care for Viraath or her husband. But now suddenly everything is for Viraath.
As for dadajis his smirking has no effect on me because I don't know what he is thinking...but since they will not show it so I don't care whether he smirks or does not smirk...
Yes, people will loose interest in him if nothing is shown from him. They are doing it because they are supposedly keeping this mystery about CB. Is it Rohan's wife or Dev's wife who is CB? But it is ridiculous as we all know that Dev is going to be RP. They don't have to show him thinking about RP title but at least show thinking about Radhika or that Maheswari is foolish when she thinks that her plans are helping her. In fact they are helping the real RP or something.
Angie you be right that the doors of the temple will soon be opened and that scene in Parinita was the most stupidest scene I have ever seen.
Misti, otherwise I didn't see the purpose of expressively showing the locked doors of the temple where Radhika was perturbed to see that. So the doors will be opened and Radhika's Kanha would come inside.
That was so silly in Parinita where I actually fast forwarded it. After watching the new Devdas, new Parinita and Saawaryia (only saw parts of it) and even Raincoat (which I partially liked), I think there should be a ban on adaptation of books by Indian filmmakers or they should not be named after these classic novels.
