Siddhant - angry young man!

22nd Feb

Getting slowly drawn back to DMG - it has started the kind of intense love story that I like. Riddhima has to marry Sid, no, she ends up begging him to marry her - the psychotic, hysterical, over-wrought girl has finally gone ... or has grown up. And Sid waits for her to ask him, he wasn't going to take the call, otherwise later she would again blame him.

Marriage takes place to the tune of 'hamesha tumko chaha' ... very apt. AR photo falls into the marriage fire - the final end of AR, a love story I loved for nearly two years, and have not the slightest regret to see ending this way! There was nothing more left in the AR story ... now this new one is intense, poignant and interesting ... and the best part is that both the actors are very good. Sid was excellent as the angry, bitter young man today - keeping his word, but furious at Riddhima's betrayal. And she knew it - her grief over Armaan's going was mixed with her guilt over what she had almost done to Sid.
Best scene - Riddhima, after the pheras are over, walks off, burns all her old photographs, and then turns to touch her new husband's feet. Only then does she return to take her parents' blessings. Again, no dialogues ... just expressions and an intensly poignant scene, beautifully acted.

Last scene - Sid will refuse to keep any rishta with Riddhima. YuNa continues - there is a story there too, although it has got a bit sidelined.
