What makes a vamp compelling usually is when she gives the leads a run for their money. It’s about a mutual fight where we see the vamp win because she played smarter.
The leads have to also put their best effort forward in order for us to feel something when they finally win. Imlie’s not even trying here, she’s just tolerating everything and making it super easy for Binni.
Imlie hasn’t acted on any of her warnings yet, aside from that moment where she called her Rashmi, when she was Paro, nothing else has put actual fear in Binni. Even when Imlie caught her stealing from the safe, Binni knew Dadi would take her side.
Imagine the confidence she feels knowing that Agastya-jhi, the bakra she nakli married for one day, that his family believe her over his actual wife who they knew for almost a whole year.
Even Navya started seeing Imlie as a threat because she kept thwarting her plans, but Binni has no reason to believe that Imlie or Sonali could stop her from getting what she wants. Which is why she’s openly taunting and demeaning Imlie in front of the Chaudhary’s. Other vamps would keep the pretence of innocence up and only show their real roop when they’re alone with the leads.
Binni Tinni doesn’t even have to try to make Imlie look bad in front of the family. There’s no plotting or planning, her BGM hasn’t been heard since she was introduced.
We need takkar, we need tashan. I know Gul can do it because she gave Tanveer in QH and Svetlana in IB, even Tia in IB was better vamp.
This really doesn’t feel like a Gul show anymore, she used to have better villains.
