I just knew how tremendously well Vishal was going to perform today. ππΌ He lived up to my expectations, and went miles ahead of how I had envisioned his performance.
The hand-holding scene where he anxiously asks her whether she's playing a joke on him- that one was out of this world.π³ The oscillation between disbelief and fear was so well done. Man, the guy can speak volumes with his eyes!
The second favorite was the self-recrimination scene where he blames himself and bangs his hand against the wall, hard. You could literally feel the pain oozing out of every fibre of Baldev's being.
The lad is certainly blessed with oodles of talent. Hope filmmakers take notice and cast him in a good movie, because he really is the complete package.
As for the Mumbai scenes and the episode in general- can I just say that the emotional impact of Vishal's power-packed performance was diluted, just a wee, wee bit, by the needless intermittent scenes.Cutting across to Mumbai every now and then didn't help matters even one bit! Come on, the protagonist,the effing girl after whom you named your show is hanging between life and death- can we just get 5 minutes of uninterrupted drama where we see everyone's reaction, particularly her lover's, in detail?π‘
I get the point that we are supposed to feel for both the brother and sister in life-threatening situations- a parallel, so to speak, because Veera and her Veerji's fate are inextricably intertwined, but I didn't really feel for Ranvi. I just wanted his scenes to be over with so that I could watch what I really wanted. And not to say that Shivin was bad today- he was actually good. But he just isn't on par with some of the fine actors on the show.
For eg, the guy playing Anmol- the transformation from a squeaky-clean innocent to a wicked, ambitious schemer was so well done. I just wish he'd been successful in his attempt! It's a sad state of affairs when you root for the baddies in a show. This is the time when I question whether my morality is as well-developed as I think it to be.
Precap- Ground laid for Bhabhi-Bhaiya separation. Good Lord!π€’
