I won't give away the story. Watch it for yourself ...

Criticizing is very easy. Had she made some constructive suggestion while criticizing, it would have been useful. Else what's the difference between her and say, Kejri or Vadra who are always criticizing Modi? I am not surprised she is getting battered on all sides.

Ahilya naav ka dile asel? The storyline kind of does not give justice to original Ahilya from mythology...the movie is nice suspense + thriller though..enjoyable..

One doubt...


I could understand the metaphor of this modern-days Ahalya and Indra as against Ramayana, (instead of Ahalya; Indra turning into stone. It wasan injustice to Ahlya in Ramayan). But I could not understand why those 'seducing acts' by this modern Ahlya


<div>Or, one neednot decipher the story. But, just enjoy it?

Like most people, Sujoy Ghosh feels that Ahilya was wrongly punished for Indra's crime. So he decided to turn the tables on Indra in his story. The Gautam-Ahilya couple conspires to serially seduce all visitors and turn them into miniature statuettes.

Talking about Radhika Apte, just saw the last performance of her play 'uNe pure shahar ek' in Pune. The show was house-full and there were many celebrities among the audience. I saw Suyash Tilak (Jay from KRD) and Bhargavi Chirmule as they were sitting very near us. The play is translated by Pradeep Vaidya from Girish Karnad's original Kannada play. It is about the life of a representative upper-class urban family from Pune, including their servants, friends, relatives etc. It's quite well-written and makes some good points, but since it has no coherent storyline, it ends up being a collage of events and as such, leaves almost no impact at the end. Apart from Radhika Apte, there's Anita Date (Isha's roommate Ashu from ELTG), Vibhawari Apte, the peon from KRD etc. in it.

Kudos to all who still have the patience of sticking to the meaningless CRAP of JYRG, HSM, KRD and the likes. I somehow could not get hooked onto D3, perhaps because of the similarities that I expected between the original Friends and D3. Yes, there is culture difference between the two series, but D3 completely was made into a Varan Bhat category (I am saying based on what episodes I saw, unless something has changed recent;y) and that totally does not go with today's young culture. THAT was the biggest disconnect for me.

In addition to work being a killer that seems to be killing my anticipated bachelorette life totally 😭, I am more than content dedicating the time on the train to MaNan πŸ˜›(and only 5-7 mins of the leads, rest does not make sense to me πŸ˜”).

After finally catching up on this week's BOLD KY2 episodes, I am compelled to make the comparison between ZGH and KY2 😳. ZGH lovers, please don't hit me, but I would want to hear opinions of folks who have admired both ZGH and KY2.

Dilip da, I wish you had watched KY2 πŸ˜ƒ since I know how big fan of ZGH you are. But koi gal nahi...perhaps the bait works now πŸ˜†

Just have small window of time today...so I am making up for my absence last week and the next 2-3 weeks. 😳

Since I managed to catch up on this week's KY2 episodes, I cannot stop myself from comparing Zindagi Gulzar Hai and KYY πŸ€ͺ. Yes, these two series are different leagues altogether, although the backdrop is partially same (College to begin with), the times in which the stories are depicted are totally different and the struggles of teh female leads are VERY different. BUOY, am I going to be offending the ZGH fans if my conclusion is MaNan love is MUCH MORE mature than what Zaroon and Kashaf were shown to have??

It's not an adulation for the teenage lovers / actors portraying the leads, but there is SO MUCH TRUST MaNan have for each other which took quite a long time to build in ZGH. Both stories started off with hatred and culminated in love. Both stories had a vast class difference between the societal statuses of the leads. Both female lead characters are darn strong persona that the male leads cannot resist. Both Zaroon and Manik are adamant in their own respect. YET, there is a difference...

Boldness of KY2 apart, which I definitely cannot be expecting from a Pak drama and which is definitely not a criteria to make the comparison, but look at the age difference of the lead characters (and not the actors). Shouldn't a teenage love be more flimsy and not worthy of comparison with ZK leads? But nope, they defy the common notion that teenage love is all about physical attraction and is so fragile.

There is no way I want to compare Fawad with Parth simply because Parth has a long way to go with his dialogue deliveries. Fawad's English, Hindi and Urdu is totally flawless and the English dialogue delivery is not marred by him being a Hindi speaking person. But he has years of experience in this industry too which cannot be ignored. Coming to the female leads - I have struggled for quite some time with both female leads - Sanam and Niti in terms of looks matching up to the counterparts. But both are strong actresses with their own forte. And coming to Niti, I want to go that extra mile in praising her tad bit more than Sanam because she's not let any difference (s) between Parth and her (looks, height, off screen drama etc.) come in the way of her performance on screen. I need to pause for a moment and shout out to the girl...πŸ‘β­οΈπŸ€—

Someone just tell me PLEASE how a 20 year old can not only have the GUTS to give THOSE BOLD scenes, but also exude innocence and seduction at the same time just through her eyes. ❀️ UFFF...I totally fell for how the MINION Nandu totally got the Monster (lost in the darkness of his own fears) transformed into a gem with the light of her positivity!!! The last 2-3 episodes, just go to show how much understanding and compatibility these two actors have onscreen that brings out a more than perfect chemistry.⭐️⭐️ How the Minion Ms. Murthy can totally turn tables on to the kameena Malhotra and make him blush . Aweee... I have never seen a guy blush that cutely. And that smacker from Nandu was all SO loaded with innocence ...these two are just cuteness personified❀️ ❀️


Since the birthday episodes, and the past two weeks just show how they have taken their chemistry a notch up with them defying their own standards. I am trying HARD not to make ANY connection between their Professionalism off screen and performance on screen.πŸ˜‰πŸ˜†


And back to comparison...Despite all the odds that came in the way of their actual confessions, MaNan have always had that unsaid trust for each other and they were always willing to make any sacrifice for the sake of each other - be it Manik letting go Nandini for Dhruv or Nandini hiding the Aryamaan (CRAP) from Manik. Manik trusts Nandini to an extent that he says that he does not feel the necessity of controlling her; Manik totally lacks chauvinism whereas Zaroon was all about chauvinism. Zaroon with his own insecurities could not get over doubting Kashaf and Kashaf with her own ingrained complexes could not open up to him. Yes, ZGH is all about their journey leading to them overcoming their complexes and reaching that equilibrium (if I may say so) that couples need to have in post marital life. But c'mon ZK were grown-ups too and quite stable in life. And here we talk about MaNan who are just teens with Nandu just turning 18. Can you beat that age difference between the two leads and their trust levels????!!

I am stopping here giving chance to all the fans on this forum who have watched both serials to express their views.

KUDOS to the writers and creatives of KYY for so brilliantly handling the discussion on intimacy between the young couple, isn't that the biggest peer pressure youngsters of this generation succumb to?? And Parth and Niti just nailed that entire scene with their expressions πŸ‘...the innocence in their expressions was to die for!! ⭐️ ❀️

Needless to say Gulzar and the likes are out of my head πŸ˜ƒat the moment and I am totally drowned in the PaNi.😳

The H2O is no longer going to be the same for me because I am choked for the lack of imbalance between 2H and one O and the suffocation for the want of that extra O has converted the H2O at my end into H2O2. If anyone knows the chemical difference between PaNi and Hydrogen peroxide. The reactivity and effervescence of the later cannot be quenched by the (holinessπŸ˜‰) inertness of PaNi.πŸ˜³πŸ˜³πŸ˜†

And just for those who want to know the mechanics behind PaNi's flow onscreen that has gotten the fans go all GAGA...

Niti is such a cute bachchi...πŸ€— She gives a damn about the ways in which fans can interpret her remarks in this interview πŸ˜†

Zoey, is that a good enough an update for the Bhai Logs?!! πŸ˜† Looking forward to more comparison between ZGH & KY2.


How I despise that name - KYY - where is the yaariyan here? I cannot connect with any of the surrounding stories πŸ˜”; perhaps because I haven't YET watched all the episodes!!πŸ˜• Except, PaNi, the rest have zero to minus acting skills.
