Episode 71-76 Takes: The Positives & Negatives

Many must b wondering where did I disappear or whether I gave up on the show after fake Sona's arrival 😆 , na I dont give up so easily unless there is any drastic change in the show , so I m still very much watching and addicted like before 😃 .. Its just that I m not able to make my daily posts at night because of my busy schedule .. Since its festive month , so will b going to my hometown Kolkata from 15th Nov to 1st Dec ..Because of that was busy with packing and shopping and so went to sleep early at night

Anyways finally got some time this weekend and so thought of doing a short take on this whole week's episodes ..

I think I hv cribbed enough about the jet speed in which the whole story is going especially the RaGa love track , so will not talk more about it .. I m sure CVs know what they r doing .. So will talk about the positives and negatives of this whole week ...

First will list down the positives of this week .. 😃

1) Finally the mystry behind the black veil woman is revealed and we know that its none other than Badi Ranima .. Well I always knew it 😆 but thank god we got the confirmation too .. And BRM has enough reasons to do all this being the step Grandma who never got her proper rights and so feels cheated 🤔.. I m glad CVs dint introduce anymore new vamps but turned one of the existing espected one only as the main vamp 😆



2) Talking of Ranaji , I was a bit scared that post fake Sona's entry , Ranaji might start ignoring Gayatri again or might forget about all his promises resulting in Gayatri's hopes getting crashed once again .. But thank God nothing of that sort happened and thank you CVs for this 😃 ; In fact Ranaji is acting really matured in this case and dint forget the fact that he did move on with Gayatri who is his wife and soulmate now 👍🏼 .. Though his moving on phase and sudden falling in love with Gayatri phase was rushed a bit and so at times it looks a bit weird that how overnight he completely forgot Sona and fell head over heels in love with Gayatri so much that even after Sona's arrival , he is not ready to accept Sona because he loves Gayatri now , but this sudden change in Ranaji is much better than Ranaji going back to square one and accepting Sona as if Gayatri was just a mere replacement for him .. So by not doing so , Ranaji proved that Gayatri was never Sona's replacement as even in Sona's presense , Ranaji still loves Gayatri more and wants to spend his life with Gayatri now 😳 .. We know its fake Sona but Ranaji does not know it and even then he wants to b with Gayatri and not Sona which is quite a progress in their relationship as it nails the fact that Ranaji has actually fallen in love with Gayatri and not just accepting her because she is his wife ...

I loved the fact that Ranaji told the truth to Sona about his marriage with Gayatri and dint went on with the lie of Gayatri as someone else's wife .. I can understand why Gayatri lied as she dont want to b the reason behind Sona leaving the Rajmahal again , so it was upto Ranaji to clear the mess and tell the truth , I m glad he did that 👍🏼 .. Also I loved the way Ranaji stopped Gayatri from leaving by putting his hand on diya and proving his unconditional love to Gayatri 😳 ; Gayatri too cannot see him in pain and so she too puts her hand on burning diya which I feel is symbolic to the purity of their love as they both take an oath to b together always by putting their hand on fire which is a symbol of purity ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️...Their relation as husband-wife finally looks complete now .. First putting sindoor followed by Ranaji breaking her Karwa Chauth fast followed by both making promises to each other by putting their hands on fire 👍🏼 .. After this I dont think any evil force can separate them ... They might b successful in creating temporary misunderstandings but separation is not possible ..


Ranaji looks quite sorted out in his mind now that Gayatri only is his wife and he wants to spend his life only with Gayatri . He does not believe in keeping 2-3 wives for himself .. So while he is forced to give the rights of a Queen to Sona , he is not ready to give the rights of a wife to Sona yet because in his heart and mind that right is already given to Gayatri now 😳 .. Its an irony because just a month back Ranaji was quite firm in his mind that Gayatri can b the Queen but Sona will always remain his wife whereas today he believes Sona can b the Queen as per protocol but Gayatri will always remain his wife ...


3) I m also happy with Gayatri's decision making abilities here 👏👏 ; She is not ready to sacrifice here as a wife 👍🏼 ; She can sacrifice the position of a queen because she never wanted to b a queen in the first place but she is not ready to share her position as a wife .. I m glad she clearly told Ranaji that he needs to make a decision about this now because she cannot remain here as someone's second wife .. So either she stays as his wife or Sona 👍🏼 ; I m glad CVs dint make her too mahaan or sacrificing here ..She did feel bad seeing Ranaji and Sona together discussing about their past during the picnic and she expressed her insecurities too directly to Ranaji instead of sulking about it in alone 👍🏼 ; Its quite human ..No wife can see her husband spending time with her ex-wife ..So Gayatri's insecurity was nicely highlighted in this case 👍🏼...

Ranaji too is no more comfortable spending time with Sona .. Even if it was real Sona and not a fake one , still I feel Ranaji would feel the same simply because he has moved on in his life and now his heart beats only for Gayatri ...He dont want to believe its real Sona because in his subconscious mind he knows well that he now loves only Gayatri , so somewhere he actually does not want her to b real Sona .. Though he did accept that mayb its real Sona , but his displeasure is quite visible here .. And I m glad he too is not sulking about it in alone but making it clear to Gayatri that he only loves her and considers her as his lifepartner ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


4) Swarna track is getting interesting now with the new character's entry .. The guy looks good with Swarna and I feel he might genuinely fall in love with her in the future and give a good happy life to Swarna which she is craving for 👍🏼 .. Right now he might b a puppet of Chacha and co , but the guy does not look too evil and mayb if he finds out full story of Swarna , he might actually help her out and eventually fall for her 😳 .. I dont think he will forcibly sleep with her against her wish .. Overall its a strong parallel track created and I m loving it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️



5) Last but not the least , no matter how absurd the whole mask drama looks considering the 40s era when technology was not this advance 😆 , still I m glad that its a fake Sona and not a real one .. I really hate this cliche twist of bringing back someone from the dead and then making the person negative as per convenience .. Thank god we dont hv that kind of drama here .. I always maintained that I would rather prefer a positive Sona only whom Ranaji loved once but with time he has moved on and is now in love with Gayatri , so this way Gayatri wont look like Sona's replacement just because Sona is negative ... I m glad CVs dint disappoint me here as real Sona actually remained positive only because she is dead and now Ranaji loves Gayatri because he has truely moved on ...

Pheww Quite a lot of positives here .. And CVs hv a golden opportunity now to build on further with the RaGa love track before they consummate .. I just hope they dont rush up .. let the build up b slow .. Mayb some intense passionate and longing moments between a couple who r in love yet cannot b together will b good to watch ..

Now let me talk of the negatives ... 😆

1) Biggest Negative here is actually the RaGa falling in love track which was rushed up just to bring in these negative elements like fake Sona and BRM as the black veil woman ...In any show , falling in love phase is the most exciting phase and should b given at least 2 months time but here Ranaji fell in love with Gayatri in just 2 weeks .. The kind of love and loyalty Ranaji is showing towards Gayatri today , would hv looked more believable and real if the falling in love phase was given a bit more time by trying to show some more intense passionate moments between the couple and how slowly Ranaji is starting to long for Gayatri's presense and not Sona .. This phase was actually never shown and so today when we see Ranaji's loyalty towards Gayatri and not Sona , at times I doubt if Ranaji really loved Sona or was he just infatuated by her and thats why he could move on so easily in just 2 weeks time 🤔... Anyways there is no point cribbing now because this cannot b changed .. I hope CVs give us some intense and passionate moments between RaGa now which can justify their love story properly

2) Whole mask drama is a bit funny considering the era 😆 .. Lookalike of Sona might hv been more apt than this mask drama or bringing another negative character in the picture .. But as long as its not real Sona , I m not complaining much 😆

3) CVs need to slow down on the speed now . I dunno why they r rushing with everything so fast as if they hv a deadline to meet .. On one hand I m glad its revealed that Sona is a fake one and the veil woman is BRM which was long overdue but on other hand I dont want RaGa love track to b sacrificed at the cost of this negative drama 😕 .. So a proper balance and pace need to b maintained here ..

4) Last but not the least I know Ranaji will slap Gayatri as he wont believe the truth about BRM which is quite natural but I hope Ranaji is not shown too dumb here .. He loves and trusts Gayatri now .. So at least he can b shown doing some secret investigation because he knows Gayatri will just not point fingers at anyone without a reason .. So in short I dont want to see a dumb or puppet Ranaji at the hands of BRM again .. He may not fully trust Gayatri but he can always do his secret investigation being the king and now a husband too

Overall , Story just got interesting after friday's revelation , and I m looking forward to Gayatri's reaction now once truth comes out in front of her 😃

Thanks for the takes.Missed ure daily posts. It did cross my mind that u were boycotting this track,and glad to know ure not.

And you were spot on about BRM from the word go.👏.

Missed ur analysis Jyoti! i too thought u had left the show! thank god u are still watching!

Coming back to the show! ur analysis was very detailed and bang on! loved it!

Me too thought they are rushing the track! bt in a way that cd also be the reason for increase in trps! initially it was pretty slow! now so much action happening in main track as well as the parallel track! first time in a show i am keen to watch the parallel track! in fact i wanted to know wht is happening to swarnalekha when she was getting caught by lakshraj n co! really a strong parallel track and it is also part of the story not some thing disconnected to d show! really a great idea by cvs and actors of this track!

Coming to mask concept! evn i wondered abt it as it was pre independence times, but one friend of mine mentioned, they did have ppl trying to look like the kings to avoid assasinations n stuff. Masks was also part of it. may be not as sophisticated as what it is now. but must have been crude ones. i don t know as i dont have historic proofs. but there were lot of techniques which were employed in historic times.

Ranaji moving on n in love with Gayatri! is kind off too fast paced only! not very convincing! in fact cvs cd have used this track to show Ranaji falling more for Gayatri seeing the mature way she is dealign with this issue of sulakshna. he wd be only attracted to her not in love with her. anyway lets wait n see.

i only hope no kala jadu n stuff in our show. i am seeing it is in vogue in every show. i hope we dont get anythign like that! we have enough drama without all that.

one other problem i have is Rajmata! they showed an intelligent Rajmata! Anita Raj n BRM clashes were interesting. why are they suddenly leaving her out. why cant gayatri be shown getting help from rajmata? they shd join hands together. it wd be terrific.

Really missed your review posts! Was a delight to read once again.
I agreed with everything! 👏

Jo welcome back dear I thought u left but glad u didn't .
Some how these 2 weeks I had no mood to watch the show I skipped it in a way only read wu .
Sona entry excited me first in the beginning I thought gayathri will leave but the show took weird step thanks to ST and his weird brain .
Now this review pretty much covered full recap thanks yaar jo .
I feel ranaji is a gentleman his mind says sona is dead and he doesn't feel the heart beat when sona is near him as he used too so in a way he has doubts but his eyes seeing a dead wife alive his responsibility towards 2 wife's is divided now he loves gayathri for sure but his responsibility towards sona doesn't end he is forced to give her first preference that's what he is up to .
But my question why all show heroes are shown dum deaf infront of the family I expected a king to be king never expected show will turn 360 degree for trp.
What is the problem with ST why he is showing gayathri as doormat she is turned in to a servant and dancing before the ppl what crap they are going to show not happening disappointed .
Yet another unique show ruined for fetching trp were is the 40s feel it had in the initial months .
Govindji is missed out and Brm is shown like horror witch .
The promo really cracked me seriously yaar jo .
Let's hope show don't ruine further .
Anyways Gona read ur views because ur reviews are enough at this moment .
Swara track seems good but why gayathri couldn't see her it's unreal let's see her story is far better than Brm bakwas

Welcome back dear

lovely reviews

Agree with all ure points in toto.

And totally relieved its fake Sona and also that Ranaji is a man of pakka promise and he meant every word he said about Gayatri.

I would hv boycotted if Ranaji was shown getting confused between Sona and Gayatri again .. but thank god he dint 😆 ...

At least they maintained the RaGa relation in this track and Ranaji dint take any u-turn ..
