Good acting ... but standstill ...

6th Sept

One of those episodes where acting was good but absolutely nothing happened. Oh well, got a tiny Sajan scene which was nice ... and as usual, no one to touch Gunjan for emotion.

Basically the episode consisted of Nupur walking away, coming back, walking away, coming back ... girl, make up what passes for your mind! First time she comes back for her phone, Gunji hands it to her, looking at her with a mixture of accusation and grief ... how can you NOT be her? ... she leaves. SG - Gunji can't believe it isn't her di, and collapses into Samrat's arms, crying bitterly at her loss ... so does she also finally believe it isn't her di? Nice Sajan scene :))) although miniscule one.
Samrat tries to pull her together, for Mayank's sake, because M is also looking shell shocked ... these three MADE season two, and this small scene shows why ... all three acting really well, hardly any dialogues, just silent emotions.

SG hug

And Nups comes back, apologises to Mayank, he tells her very formally he'll drop her home - hello, I thought she had no home here? -
and Gunji runs off again, this time Nups follows her ...
I think RP got tired of the accolades coming Sanaya's way about her acting, and wanted a bit of the praise herself too ... no other reason for the Gunur scene ... where again Sanaya shows that no one can beat her in such scenes.
Rati wasn't bad, but two things were distracting - the caterpillars on her eyes and her horrendous pink nail polish ...

Last scene, Mayank dropping Nups somewhere in the car ... repeat accident? and repeat barn? This is getting boring ...

One can judge how good an episode is by the repeat value ... from the last few episodes, really none ... I can watch to get an update of how the story is moving, if at all, but that magic which glued me to the show, especially S2, and watch the episodes again and again to catch the smallest nuances of acting, the tiny gestures, the layers of emotions ... all that is just gone completely. Just want to watch whatever SG scenes come our way ... again, I don't know how they will recover the Sajan story, if they even bother to do so, that is. After the dinner date, it seems to be past the point of recovery - they will probably have to start a completely new spin on it.
