TSBTSP - EPISODE DISCUSSION THREAD #1 - Page 50

In the early promotional videos Harshad Arora had said that his character will have an impact on Kajol's life, he would leave her but still play a huge role in her life. I think that first humiliation is the elder sister unmarried and younger getting married plus he gets a direct line to interfere in Mukherjee family life and business. Apu is young so doesn't get much of a say. Plus Chandana is weak and dependent on patriarchal notions of men being the head of family and she will rely on his judgement and hence he gets to ruin Kajol's happiness at every step.

26 oct review:

Anurag was right to question Kajol as to how much she understands his equation with Priyanka. I get that the intent was to build up the camaraderie but I felt it was somewhat bland and too cliched tbh. 🤔I get the awkwardness after the gossip corner commotion but to twist it to Priyanka ka intent just made it feel disjointed. 😕 Good to see him clear his stance in front of Kajal, but why the nerve-jolting behavior in front of Priyanka?😳😆

There is definitely subtle chemistry buildup when he untangles the thread that was stuck to the lamp-post.

Hahaha, Noyna noticed Arjun's reaction upon seeing Shreya. 🤣

His character has potential but the execution just makes him like cliched out. Apu can make money if given the brain & efforts. Okay, if not Opu, then what about the sisters? Especially Noyna, can't she find some part time work or something?

I agree, that is why I am hugely disappointed. Harshad Arora was the reason I started watching the show and he is acting well but his character is just not that interesting. He was supposed to be a grey shade character but all he is, is one shade and that too black. I actually prefer the other characters in the show like Kajol, Anurag, Ayan and Shreya, which is surprising as my sole purpose to start this show was to watch him.

Apu is still studying I guess and Naina is never going to take responsibility and find a job. Naina has found a way out of her predicament already by marrying a rich guy and is planning to say bye bye to all her family's problems. And as Kajol has taken responsibility, no one is even trying to understand what real mess they are in.

I do think that Apu will be a staunch supporter of Kajol in the future when he starts taking responsibility and there something going on between him and Amrita/ Bulti.

The same for other sisters, Kajol took responsibility so that rest of her siblings and family could lead a normal life. And I think at some point all of the family are going to act like thankless people as well and ignore her sacrifice.

What I think too. Everyone is living their lives as before and no one is bothered where the money is coming from, becoz the elder sister is working her butt off. Anurag was so right tht day in hospital when he blasted all of them.

Maybe its time Uttam enters and throws them on the streets. Maybe then they will realize the damn mess they are in especially tht bitch Chondana.

Gosh....how I hate tht damn woman for humiliating and hurting Kajol each and every time. Whenever she opens her mouth I feel like smacking her across the face with a sauce pan......crap !!! The way she makes my blood boil. I so want to see Chondana falling flat on her face together with Noyna.....

Agree with every line- I also started because of Harshad as I liked him from Dahleez but not only is Arjun uninteresting but also adds needlessly to the negativity. I love Shreya’s character- she’s mean but also someone who is seriously unhappy in her marriage and wants love and things, and I think she will be the one to put the final nail in the coffin for Arjun.
Also, one of the possible tracks I’m interested in is Anurag’s family, his father I mean.
Kajol’s family are thankless yes but I don’t see this as a situation for Kajol where she’s only sacrificing without any wins- she does not realise it but she has gained so much by working and being more independent, so if this means her thankless family are going to stay in an unfulfilling sexist set up till the end, lol they deserve it. Endgame is also Anurag and Kajol and he’s shown to be progressive as well (haven’t seen many ITV male leads get involved in chores etc which they regularly show Anurag doing)

Ok I just wanted to say tht I love Putul. She is such a sweet little kiddo ❤️

And she most definitely loves both her Anurag dada and Kajol didi. The scenes btwn these 3 is always so endearing ❤️

I really hope Kajol makes it to the NGO to celebrate with the kids. It will give her some relief as well and the kids will be happy

I would love to see Kajol ignoring Anurag for some time, becoz this guy is too quick in judging.

And once he knows the truth, he feels bad.

Hopefully Kajol can go to the NGO, fulfill her promise to Pishimaa and just ignore Anurag; once her job is done , she should leave from there.

It will be fun to see how Anurag behaves once he is ignored 😆. The part of him and the balloon selling guy was soo damn funny; the way Anurags head went up when the guy said girlfriend 🤣🤣

And nowadays Anurag is more OUTSIDE the hospital than INSIDE.....all the time checking his phone

Caught the new epi on voot, I am so annoyed with Kajol for being confused about whether or not to go for the celebrations, these Chatterjees are going to be there for the NGO Pujo *facepalm*, Priyanka was staring at Anurag and thinking about him the way he does about Kajol.

Altogether annoyed with the Mukherjees, Kajol also. Why can't she just go without overthinking for once? Anyway, I am guessing she will be there for sure given how the track is building up. I am quite sorry for Anurag and his Pishimaa at this point, THE SHEER EFFORT they are taking for Kajol and Kajol acting absolutely spineless.

I know dude get a spine. Kajol's character needs to start speaking up. I loved Sharmila Pishi and Anurag, but Kajol needs a wake up call. Chandana ka muh dekh ke mera mood off ho jaata hai. I mean I get hopeful ki we are getting on a better track and boom we are back to square one. First time in all of Harshad's shows I cannot watch his character and I have seen all his shows. If he was a good villian I would love it but bhai pathetic character hai. Harshad should just quit and keep his rep and not waste his talent on this pile of garbage, this is a weak character yaar. Personal rant over. Ishita is a great actor again par kab hogi character growth. Anurag was again the voice of truth, calling the Mukherjee's as weird and also pointing out their double standards, can get Naina married but cannot attend the puja. K's Pishi is good but she needs to slap Chandana. I mean if they keep Kajol in the Bechaari mode like this I mean my patience is at an end. A show that was supposed to be progressive is stuck in the most clichéd points.

And Priyanka being added to the Anjol story has just pissed me off. One good thing about this show is also going to be ruined by a third wheel. Priyanka the delusional bi*** (I don't know the forum rules. Can I use that word?) needs to be written out.
