1st - 15th June
Veera ... current track very loosely inspired by the movie Dushman ... a man kills another man in a drunken driving accident, and is sentenced to go to his village and support the dead man's widow and family. He is hated by one and all at first, and then slowly redeems himself and undergoes true penitence and reformation as he realises what his one unthinking act did, and how it destroyed so many lives. In the movie, he doesn't fall in love with the widow, he falls in love with another girl in the village ...
Lots of differences, of course, the only similarity being the hero being responsible for the death of the husband, and taking over the family's responsibilities in penitence.

Show is going well, but Uma says it is under the scanner. Such a pity that the truly different shows don't get good TRPs ... no wonder makers are scared to experiment.
Qabool Hai
Madhubala ... is anyone still watching? Shaadi track here too ... for TRPs?
Na Bole Tum ... both Megha and Mohan know Addu is not the real Addu ... I didn't watch for a bit, can anyone fill me in how they found out? And is Munna back to being villain?
The scene where Mohan is told about Nanhi being in love with Beera, and he imagines her as the child Nanhi telling him she is in love, was really cute ... I think every dad sees his daughter that way, as a little girl, never really grown up, and to see another man wanting to take her away gets him boiling! Megha's nervousness about telling Mohan the truth about Nanhi's love, Nanhi's own nervousness ... all were hilarious!
Saraswatichandra ... Watched the so-called HOT scene in Saraswatichandra ... making a mountain out of a molehill!!! This seemed like a poor imitation of the Devdas-Paro scene of SLB's Devdas and they didn't even show anything much. I actually thought I had missed something! And Kumud's reactions the next morning were totally out of the 1950's ...
The Arhi farmhouse scene was far, FAR hottter, and way more aesthetically shot ... and the Samrat-Gunjan morning after scene and the Arhi morning after scene were WAY better!!!
EDIT ... Happy Second Anniversary to IPKKND ... wish the show was still on air to celebrate this milestone ...
And lots of love to all the gals here, all of us came together in mutual love and fascination for this unique show and even more unique couple.
