Originally posted by: OptiI did admit that Maaneet ooze passion, didn't I?In fact in the difference between this couple and the rest is that here both the leads are equally expressive unlike many where one outshines the other. All their scenes so far have been exemplary, be it passion, romance, drama, comedy. That is why viewers felt cheated when they were given this tired looking con. You have already been bitten by the Maaneet bug before you watched this scene, so your view could be coloured by the love you have for the couple.
I'm not saying that the scene was bad. In fact the scene sort of grew on me after I watched it several times. But then Maaneet's past scenes impressed one in the first instance and did not require one to see it again to get the feel.Well said!!
I'll mention a couple of shots which could have been better. The shot where he apparently kissed Geet's kurta irked many, especially when her bare neck was just inches away. It is only later someone said he wasn't kissing her but removing the pin with his teeth. Now if there was a closeup shot of that which would have made the act more visible to the viewer he/she could have appreciated the scene better. Then there was the shot where he pulled her by the dori after he untied it. Since this was a long shot, the viewer could not make this out in the first go. He.she could only see Geet sway back to him (not realising that actually she was pulled towards him). Had they given us a closeup of that shot, it would have been hotter. So you see small nuances like these make the difference.Bang on...Also when Geet said she wanted to take this relation further if she could have just touched his face like she always does..it would have been more impact full but sorry to say that for the first time DD had a flat face while saying "dont go i am scared"...otherwise she is always brilliant with her expressions..in fact i felt as if she was angry with MSK...
If you observe the Michi scene, it was perfect in these aspects. The camera angles were great, the ambiance of soft yet steamy romance was there. Shabbir was great in portraying both love and desire in his eyes and the female lead showed enough shyness to enhance the scene. While they showed a lot they also left a lot to the imagination.
As I said, Maaneet scene may have more in store for us. So it is too early to pass a verdict on it but the 4 and a half minutes they showed was a lot less steamy than what we have seen from Maaneet so far. I do want them to continue with the scene rather than interrupt it for some pristine setting later on. The earthy appeal of the tabela and the significance of it given their past makes it the ideal setting for their con.
You are entitled to your views even after all this. I wouldn't force you to agree with me.
