mm not sure about this, feels like a false equivalence. i said this in another post, but its not that i have anything against science and tech being used, its just it feels kind of tacky and weirdly out of place in this specific genre which is a romantic/revenge/thriller but ultimately a romantic fiction. it works in science fictions shows/fantasy or comic book movies because its set up well and because that genre lends itself well to all the tech/science and magic/supernatural stuff. its like asking why all the hulabaloo over supernatural stuff in hindi serials when you love stuff like supernatural, buffy, x files, harry potter. i mean can you imagine if tech/science was used in say something like lotr, totally different genre, it would look very gimmicky, which is what it looks like in this serial. i think you need to mix it in very well and it needs to be a well ingrained element of the show e.g sadda haq, which i loved, however here, it popped up and will likely disappear when its not needed + the execution isnt there. that's why some people have an issue with it or find it lame, not that they cant understand the science behind it or its existence in real life. that's really my 2 cents on this

🤗 you said it very well. And everything is jumpy, clashy and chaotic

I prefer the science mumbo jumbo more than over used shannigans like manoroma mami ruining sweets, ripping saris etc... however, the problem is in the execution... I mean just look at that animated tea cup or lighter flying through air - it looks so fake - if you don't have the budget then don't do it, just work around it

See that's the point. All the hustle bustle around technology, but at the end of the day isn't it just filler? What purpose does it serve to set the plot in motion?
If they wanna build Advay's character as a technology enthusiast, they just can show he is involved in some kind of project/research.
They should rather tighten up the plot.


Yes This episode is a filler - no doubt on that. I would definitely love to see Advay doing some kind of project and research and I really hope they do that and that is where you add layers to the character. Definitely that is one aspect I hope Gul looks into but knowing her I have very less hopes on it. They didn't show Arnav or Shivaay working beyond the first few weeks so I guess Advay working or researching is also a similar thing.

As long as they write good meaningful past and show it logically I will be happy.
