Thanks for the reply dear Shymala...yes I think you maybe right .and yes the mystery part!!The day I read the writer is the same person who wrote kahani my expectations have been running super high..I still can watch the movie another 10 times. I hope the end is super revelation...πI know the forum have been quite active discussing gorgeous and not so gorgeous leads but frankly speaking it does not matter to me. To me the epitome of woman power stories is Udaan and in the serial neither Kavitha Choudhary playing the female cop was super gorgeous neither was Shekhar Kapur the handsome hunk but they did definitely drive home the point they were supposed to and no matter how many Diya Bati's come or so many more ,none can match the "Udaan" .Sadly,Tulip needs some serious lessons to come up to a decent standard. But I am raring to go and explore the world of Airlines since its still better than the crappy saas - bahu saga dished out at the drop of a hat and the days of Udaan are gone...
shyamala, wonderful analysis and how can the makers escape from the fever of showing the female lead mahaanta ki devi and the one who knows it allπ..i am looking forward to how this mystery unfolds!

Well, my dear, I am not anywhere near your record for Kahani, but I have watched it 5 times, and there was not a single plot hole in it. Marvellous, and the real top billing in the cast was for the city of Kolkatta. I knew that the writer for Airlines is the same lady, but it had slipped my mind. No wonder I was moved to praise the script so much in my first para!
Her fully rounded out cameos, so essential for this kind of show with a different central story in each episode, are a constant delight. I forgot to mention perhaps the best one so far, the doctor in Episode 1, with whose car Ananya has a bender. He was superb throughout, right down to his unreserved change of attitude towards Ananya at the very end.
I am with you 100% and more about Udaan. In those days, in Doordashan, they used to have excellent serials of all kinds, Buniyaad, Kakkaji Kahin with Om Puri, Mr. Yogi, Nukkad, Dil Darya & Doosra Kewal with a raw and appealing Shahrukh, Byomkesh Bakshi, Chanakya, the list is endless. Some of them are being retelecast these days, especially Chanakya & Buniyaad. Which is a blessing for me, as I was mostly abroad on diplomatic postings and never got to see most of them. There was a delightful one with Shafi Inamdar, Swaroop Sampat and Satish Shah whose name eludes me now. I never watched Diya aur Baati Hum, with that pudding faced heroine. My IPS friend, Kiran Bedi, could not be more different from this girl in every possible way.
Yes, our Ananya would benefit from a stint with Anupam Kher's classes, but for now, I am concentrating on the mystery. I specially want to know why Inde Air is being so secretive about Mahima's death, and whether she was a double agent.
So please make sure you stay with the serial and me, for I badly need someone who shares my interest in plot intricacies, as distinct from drooling over the lead pair! If I had been 35 years younger, I would have demanded better looks in the leading man,but he had an interesting and mobile face, which is some compensation!π!

Thank you so much, my dear!
Yes, I too am looking forward to tonight; it is so nice to have something pleasing to watch on Sunday evenings, for I cannot stand the Rawstar or Comedy Circus kind of stuff, or the endless dance competitions.
Oho, so you are Sunday's child, are you? Lovely!! No wonder you are smiling!
