9/9 - Epi 96 ... Face Off

Monday 9th Sept

Mixed bag episode ... the setting is dramatic but the acting was good. The last scene was the best ... the confrontation between CC-Rupali.

Again there was attention to detail ... the accident victim told Manav which hospital he wanted to go to ... so that explained how the entire set up there worked for him ... apparently all set up by Rupali. Just wonder what if Manav had not braked in time and the guy had really gotten hurt, too hurt to specify which hospital he wanted to be taken to? Rupali's plan would have sunk without trace! 

Manthan is not pulling with the entire family yet ... his grievances with Manav remain ... so Babuji's dream to see the entire family united will have to wait a little longer. Mugut and Manek on the other hand are with Manav. Kaumudi trusts Chhanchhan and Manav completely ... she knows they are never irresponsible, so there has to be something wrong. 

The hospital scene was bad ... am resigned to the fact that hospital scenes in all telly shows are pathetic ... including that death announcement. And what was that about the delay about taking the guy to the hospital ... I thought ChhanMan took him there pretty quickly. Confused

The Manav-Chhanchhan bedroom scene was good but too short ... Anuj was good as the guy who is genuinely shattered to know that he has taken someone's life ... even a troubled but still reassuring Chhanchhan could not bring him out of that overwhelming guilt. 

Broker is actually alive, of course ... so Manav's guilt is completely misplaced ... Confused

Police coming to arrest Manav ... why did Manav Chhanchhan not tell the family about the broker's death? So the police have also been bought off by Rupali .. or this particular set of policemen have, anyway. This scene, like the hospital scene, was marred by poor dialogues ... 

Brothers and CC at police station ... Rupali calls Manav to gloat, CC takes the call and realises that this part is also Rupali's plan ... Manav had already told her about the broker plant, fortunately ... 

Rupali-Chhanchhan ... best scene of the day ... the actress playing Rupali was good, supercilious and disdainful of CC ... so you know all this was my plan, what are you going to do about it? The edgy, almost out of control character was well done ... 
And Sanaya was great ... controlled fury in her voice and eyes ... momentary doubt as Rupali speaks, then she regains her anger and her courage .. do what you like, I will get Manav out of this. 
Always love Sanaya in these scenes ... she never loses her voice control, nor does she ever get shrieky or shrill when she gets angry. And Rupali was very good too. 

Precap - Manav is apparently out on bail and back home ... am wondering how will CC get Manav out of this one. The deal breaker will be if they can find that the broker is still alive ... is Nerd Vineet going to come back for that, or will it all be Chhanchhan, maybe this time with Manthan's help? Or with Manav himself? Will Umaben come back to help, now that she has also been de-throned from her MM?
