Reliving IPK 145 - Page 5

Inspired soul, that is one exquisite write up for La on the first page. Kudos. You should make a hard bound thesis with all these write ups. In fact all you guys should!

La is one character, which had a great potential to turn into a vamp but she bid adieu most elegantly. Loved all the convo you and ipoona had about her. Absolutely agree with ipoona how pitiful is that hemlines dictating how girls are totally judged/ showcased a certain way. Agree with you too that naniji would have accepted her even otherwise. And agree would have been wonderful if La left in the cloths she came in.. But then since our show is all about symbolism.. May be just another way to show that she is a transformed woman now. And our show always has that edge over all the shows I ever laid my eyes upon that there is NO scheming woman.. And that is a biggest thing on Indian TV. La is the one who had the potential t turn into one, bit the way departed only raised the bar of our show several notches up! Again, that is one brilliant write up very happy that you are here.

And ipoona, welcome to the club of viragos ( from the last thread) !

Ipoona - Sorry - i didnt get you right before. You are right about stereotyping. I do get now what you are saying.
It is true that there was not a single modernly dressed woman in AR office who was nice to khushi, the only nice person shown was again manjuji!
Agree with u on that.
Even i wanted La to leave from RM looking confident, and dressed in her normal style, but with a changed attitude towards herself, others and life!

Well, i think we both have officially gone crazy! Thank god we are into only one show, and IPK has spoiled us for anything else on indian tv! 😃

Ipoona, no my dear, it's not exactly dar but a hesitation not to spoil the party if anyone happens to like that scene like some comments about star gazing (not here) didn't really sit well with me as for me that is one of the top most beautiful sequence.

Those curls of Khushi, I found them ghastly when I saw them on sbs and of screen pics those days, but wanted to wait for the actual scenes to play out since unfortunately all most all scenes of her in That attire turned out to be most forgettable, that pool side line taking the top honors, yes that was a horrible hairdo! Agree with you he was preoccupied as he is totally guilty at that time and some thing terribly off with her. That pool side, kya baloon ab, I thought I would talk about it when u guys post the actual epi, anyway, Khushi's character slipped at a tremendous rate with that line, never really looked back again for me except for brief for that spectacular romantic fortnight! You are absolutely right, what wa she thinking, from no angle there was justification for that line, it was super tragic that the writers couldn't find a better

Line/ way for her to convey to him that her engagement is broken, which is the actual purpose of that while convo. here when those two came out quite mature in that break up and she is still busy in Interfering. He is right when he said during that Farq padtha hai " pehle apne engagement tho sambhalo". Sorry again for rather scathing remarks, I was quite unhappy how writers dealt with her post Shyam revelation, I remember writing"character assassination in progress" that dec.

Anyway, will stop cribbing now as we have a great ride ahead.

Inspired ... Bold ... Agree with you a hundred percent ... When I was talking about the clothes ... I was referring to the makers of the show ... The visuals ... The girls in ASR office ... Each one ruder than the other ... I was talking in generalities ... The tendency to tie morals to hemlines ... La was, like you pointed out, indeed shown wearing short dresses well into her stay at RM ... I was commenting on my personal peeve ... For me it just perpetuates the myth further ... Other than La, every short skirted woman that floated in, was either a blatant stoical climber, an annoying diva, a desperate wanna be ... La transformed ... Was probably happy trying out a different wardrobe ... I wish they had the courage to show La walking out in Western clothes when she finally leaves ... But completely agree ... Visuals are important and that May have been read, unfortunately, as reverting to the old ways ... But with rest of the scene treated the same way ... Her goodbye scene ... I personally think, would have set our show apart some more ... But I should talk ... This is the only show I have seen ... Maybe they are doing that ... May be I am just full of it ... Right ?😛

Ipoona, IS,

Inspired soul, I have a beef here, why is it that in indian shows, girls who wear indian clothes are lovely and those that wear western are the baddies? Yes La did wear very short skirts as a diva she was the baddy, as she became more human, did she have to go all all desi like khushi? Could we have seen her inmore decent western clothes and be good at the same time?. I think that even arnav would have wanted to see khushi in more western clothes, frankly compared to what khushi wore on her engagement revealed more than Las short dresses. It would have been nice to have seen khushi {or La} in jeans and a long top. Wake up star, wearing western clothes doest make you a baddy.

Thanks inspired soul, I appreciate the comment. Im writing this on my tablet, so me being me and tapping away with one finger jumps in with my two pennies before I have read the full thread. SORRY.

Im loving the dc forum opened my eyes go see the nuances of the scripts, the directors and these two great actors. Proof of which youll see as bs goes off to do his filmy stuff and they both end up doing intimate scenes with standins.
