I am going to be brave and say something not very popular today -
Today's episode was a total joke. It was a cliche on crack and belonged in another show. Not this one.
I have watched this week and despite the horrible editing and shoddy production, kept quiet because I could see that the episode were all building toward something, there was a progression. Now, before you all jump down my throat, I agree there was progression today. That one 1 minute scene that reverberated with everyone where Kh states that cheaters never you look you straight in the eyes and ArHi have a stare off. Everything else leading up to that 1 minute - absolute crap.
There is no reason a supposed business tycoon, who has shows in Lucknow and Dehli, goes to meetings in NNTL and has clients fly in from London, would have this kind of bullshit scenario take place. None. I am supposed to believe that there was no background check on previous deals, this was the first time that they were meeting and that the securities officer would show up on a phone call. Am I in the freaking twilight zone? All this dumbass Khushi CID officer giri to what - to show that ASR needs her, and she saves the day, and then throw in that 1 minute that had meaning. He already needs her, she has saved his butt on a number of occasions. Would it have killed the CVs to have Kh cancel the meeting without telling ASR and spare us the conversation about koftas??
The CVs have to realize there is a growing number of women out there who have and are working outside the home. This kind of mindless and baseless story totally rubbed me the wrong way. Shut my brain off you say. Why should I? I am the changing demographic that this PH has got to keep up with. I am the one who has the money to buy the products that are being advertised in between and very clearly, I am watching a show that doesn't have a saas bahu drama.
I understand all the plot points that the CVs are trying to convey. Arnav and Khushi - the both of them - are realizing the other has no tolerance for cheating. I understand Anjali's starter is finally firing and that Payal and Mami are becoming closer and that Mr. Roy's magic file is going to set Shyam's ass on fire. But why do we need to see Nani dressed as a drag queen (or Bette Davis from Whatever Happened to Baby Jane), Khushi as not a bubbly young woman but a patient suffering from ADHD and ASR missing his business brain (no it doesn't help that Akash is the one who said he didn't do background check because he's supposedly working there for a long ass time).
I forgave the CVs for their brain farts on Monday. I am not going to accuse you of it today. But seriously, this script was mixed up with one for another show that shall not be named *coughs - dhokla*.
