Sanaya to return to fiction in a web series, produced by Beyond Dreams ... the PH who was to do Kavya Ki Prarthna. Yippeee ... we still have to wait for her return to TV, but at least we will get to see her in a fiction show again, in a new character. Should be interesting ...

Sanaya has been on the lookout for a web show for some time ... she turned down one to do NB ... she is still not impressed with what's on TV these days ... can't blame her!

Added icing to the cake - Sanaya is also performing in the Mirchi Awards on 31st Dec on Colors.

I'm glad the never ending honeymoon is finally ending, and San is getting back to work!!! Have missed her acting so much!

RKC Week 20 Epi 105 - 109 Dec 18 - 22

Satrupa is digging a big hole for herself. For a woman whom her daughter accused of being all head and no heart, she is letting her heart rule her head completely, in her desire to bring her child closer, to overcome Anami's hatred of her. It will be irony indeed, and a very tragic irony, if her steps backfire, and Anami believes she engineered the kidnapping of Laddoo to win her affection ... which is the way it seems to be going.

In the meantime, it's beautiful to see mother daughter coming closer, and Satrupa's naked longing for her daughter's love.
Laddoo is definitely a brat!!!

Sangeeta Ghosh's acting has usually been overshadowed by Narayani's ... but yesterday and today, she shone as the unhinged, mad with rage, frustrated woman whose plans have gone awry and whose partners in crime are missing, leaving her alone and helpless.

Adhiraj Anami scene was sweet ... they are growing closer and closer, the friendship deepening to something more. Still can't wrap my head around their love story ... Anami is too much of a child for me!

Thursday - Satrupa bach gayi! Anami just saw Purushottam holding gun to her head, not that she already had Laddoo with her. And what Satrupa had told Laddoo came true ... the kidnapper did come back and try to hurt Anami ... But will Purushottam spill the beans? or will he get shot?
Was rather funny the way everyone congregated at Royal Steel ... as a hiding place cum secret rendezvous, it failed rather spectacularly! At least count, only Vikram Singh, Gayatri and Baldev were NOT there ... everyone else was!
One thing is for sure ... Purushottam's intent of killing Anami is clear to Anami ... whether Sudha manages to bamboozle her way out of this back into Anami's good books, remains to be seen. Looking forward to Friday episode! 

Friday ... Satrupa saved ... but only by the skin of her teeth!
Sudha ... ditto ... but she had to kill her own brother, her biggest support and co-conspirator, to save her own skin ... Sangeeta in the last scene, as Sudha remembers firing at her brother, and tries to wash her hands of the stain, was awesome! She will become even more dangerous now.

Narottam keeps silent ... he had already warned Sudha that if she had a hand in Laddoo's kidnapping, he would expose her ... so he is not with her on this, and she knows it. Plus he knows his Choti maa, and knows she would not have kept quiet ... he probably even understands his own kidnapping was security for laddoo's life, and won't hold it against Satrupa, especially as she made it clear he was not to be harmed.

Adhiraj is a fool ... does he really think Satrupa had a hand in the original kidnapping of Laddoo? And if so, for what reason? Would she connive with a criminal like Purushottam? PT more or less admitted he kidnapped Laddoo in the first place ... it was only how Laddoo landed up at RS that needs to be investigated ... and it is obvious that Laddoo is scared of Sudha and PT, and not of Satrupa.

Satrupa really shot herself in the foot by keeping Laddoo hidden those extra few days just to steal some extra time with Anami ... if she had returned Laddoo to LM when she first found him, he was been talking and able to point out both Sudha and PT as the villains. And then Sudha would have been ousted ... probably that's why the cv's needed to make him dumb so he couldn't give away Sudha so soon.

Sudha is treading a dangerous path by scaring Laddoo just because he can't speak ... he will show his fear and dislike of her clearly enough for Anami to distrust her.
But now Baldev has stepped in to ensure Sudha stays on in LM ... Sudha  lost Anami's trust, but gained Baldev's support ...

I do want to see both Adhiraj and Anami witness Laddoo's faith and trust in Satrupa ... and his fear of Sudha ... but the main premise of the show is the mother-daughter conflict ... so I guess there will be some more reason to drive a wedge between them soon.

RKC Week 19 Epi 100 - 104 Dec 11-15

Celebrations as RKC reaches the 100 episode mark ... not the 100th, but the 101st episode was a landmark, as Anami for the first time, accepted a spoonful of food from her birth mother's hands, cried and slept in her lap, and called her 'Ma'.

What a consummate actress Narayani Shastri is! Her expressions as she caressed the sleeping Anami's face and hair, her incredulous joy and tears as Anami in her sleep murmured that precious word ... and the way she put back her head and closed her eyes ... the expression on her face showed Satrupa's joy, her bittersweet happiness ... in her daughter's biggest sorrow, she found her own joy and a form of closure, as the daughter she had given away at birth, the daughter who hated her for her abandonment, finally accepted an olive branch, finally acknowledged that her mother too might have been unhappy at the separation, that she was fighting her own battles as she battled with Anami's hatred ... for the first time, Anami acknowledged and accepted her mother's overtures.

The other scene I loved was Narottam and Sudha ... as Narottam makes it clear he will not fight an unjust war. That he will not be party to Laddoo's kidnapping ... that he is even willing to expose his own mother, if Laddoo is harmed. Sudha can fight the world,she can fight the LMvasis, but how will she fight her own son, for whom ostensibly she is fighting this war?
If only the LMvasis had acknowledged Narottam's feelings, had understood that whatever Sudha was, Narottam was just an innocent child ... he did not ask to be born .. he did not ask to be treated as a pawn in his mother's revenge ... all he really wanted was some love and affection. And when Anami gave him that, he is becoming her brother in the true sense. Satrupa's quiet manipulation, her support, although belated,  might also have had its desired effect ... if only Satrupa had understood this much earlier, maybe Sudha's poison would have been nullified years ago.

15th Dec - Kidnap drama continues the entire week - as usual, CBI, Adhiraj and his band of officers are nowhere to be seen, and Satrupa and Anami are taking the law into their own hands, with varied results. Friday's episode will show what trouble Anami gets into, and if Adhiraj finally is of some use ... till Thursday, Satrupa very much held the upper hand - she traced Purushottam, confronted him, rescued Laddoo ... Purushottam's fate is unclear, but doubt he will be killed off.

Satrupa - Narayani Shastri is awesome as the lady don ... the way she switches between soft, loving, vulnerable mother and powerful tycoon with strong grey shades, is simply awesome. Sheer pleasure watching her on screen. Her walk as she entered Purushottam's den ... the barest flicker on her face as his two henchmen are shot and dragged away ... we usually see this swag and attitude in men on screen - it's a welcome change to see it in a woman, and Narayani carries off the attitude and the power beautifully.
Side note - I love her style - the plain sarees with broad gold borders, and the understated, very elegant jewelry.  The stylist of this show deserves special mention. Narayani, Anju Mahendru and Sangeeta Ghosh are styled beautifully, completely in keeping with their characters. So are the men, and Anami too ... but these three ladies rule the style roost in this show!

15th Dec - Satrupa's grey surfaces ... her one insecurity is her daughter and the hatred from her ... Laddoo's kidnapping has brought Anami closer to her, and Satrupa is not ready to risk the distance increasing again. So the decision to hide Laddoo from Anami for a little while longer ... Damo, her conscience, is not happy but Satrupa uses the excuse of outing Sudha to justify herself.

Wonder whether this was a blooper - Satrupa knew Anami had come there, but she didn't wait to make sure Anami left the place safely before leaving herself? Or did she instruct her henchmen to keep an eye on Anami and therefore knew that Adhiraj had rescued her?

Anami blames Adhiraj for coming there ... because of him she didn't find Laddo. Is Anami really so stupid as to believe the kidnapper would have tamely handed Laddoo over to her, no questions asked?

Satrupa spins a yearn similar enough to Anami's story that Anami believes her completely ... after all, the same thing happened to her ... kidnapper called her, asked her to come there  alone ... Adhiraj not quite convinced ... but Anami is on Satrupa's side on this one.

Satrupa scolding Anami ... NS again brilliant in the scene ... how her voice breaks as she scolds Anami ... 'what if something had happened to you? You don't care about us, what about Pandit and Panditayin?' And Anami for the first time responds to the mother in Satrupa ... and cries in her arms. Satrupa is happy ... her daughter's closeness is increasing. She ignores Anami's pain in her own joy. (Besides she knows Laddoo is safe ... yes, I'm making excuses for Satrupa ... I love her!)

Satrupa-Sudha confrontation ... Satrupa turns the tables on Sudha ... her brother missing, her son missing ... Sudha is alone. Sudha lashes out, why involve Narottam, he's not involved, he's innocent ... did Sudha forget she involved Laddoo, a complete innocent? 

Wonder what Satrupa has planned for Purushottam ... Narottam, like Laddoo, is safe.

RKC Week 18 Epi 95 - 99 Dec 4-8

Hectic week, so only just got around to making post for the week.

The week was pretty much a build up to the Laddoo kidnapping ... Laddoo getting more and more influenced by Satrupa, much to Anami's fury ... while she is battling her own ambivalent feelings towards Sudha, Laddoo's allegiance to Satrupa only serves to confuse her further. Is Sudha really all that she claims to be? Or, as Adhiraj advises, does she need to check that injustice has actually been done to Sudha before she goes on her morcha to win her justice?

Some of the cutest scenes this week were between Satrupa and Laddoo ... Anami has been combative and belligerant towards Satrupa from day one ... not entirely her fault, as Satrupa didn't exactly go out of her way to make Anami feel loved ... it was all about duty and haq. But Laddoo has no such issues. He was doubtful about Satrupa at the beginning ... was she the wicked black crow who stole Anami from her family, or was she a good fairy? By the end of the week, Laddoo has made up his mind ... Satrupa is kind, affectionate, understanding, helpful ... she counsels him when he is upset, shows him how to overcome his difficulties, enrols him in a winter camp so that he can learn English ... and she is starting to show her affection more openly. The warm affectionate loving Satrupa who had died with Vatsalya, is slowly coming back to life with Laddoo's open affection and admiration. 

Anami also got a taste of her own medicine this week ... as rude as she is towards most LMvasis, Laddoo gave a glimpse of that rudeness towards her. Unlike Anami, he seems to have imbibed more of his parents' parvarish, as he is never openly rude to the inhabitants of Lal mahal ... he calls Gayatri Dadiji ... but he's enjoying his new found English skills and trying to use them ... Anami is scared that he is becoming more an LM vasi, and losing his Benaras roots .. so she chides him at every step ... leading to their final fight.
Like Satrupa is unable to handle the petulant rebellious Anami, after her sweet biddable loving Vatsalya ... Anami is unable to handle the truculent rebellious Laddoo after the sweet loving follower brother she had in Benaras. And like Satrupa, she goes about dealing with him all the wrong way.
