On March 10, 2010 in Balika Vadhu, Character, Child, Colors, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, TV, Violent
Ballika Vadhu is taking a very dramatic turn, from being full of festivity to a scene of total downturn in the matter of a few episodes. Jagdish, fresh from his school exams declared that he had topped in the examinations. This was a matter of great celebrations in the house, since Jagdish had not been so good before, and everybody including his grandmother joined in the celebrations, with a party, with dance, and so on. Even a treasure hunt was organized where Jagdish had to guess a few clues, which eventually led him to a mobile phone as a prize. Anandhi, who also studied for the exam at home, however, got only 55%. But she forgot her unhappiness at these marks by joining in the celebration of Jagdish’s marks. At the peak of the celebrations, it was all revealed to be false by Jagdish’s teacher who declared that Jagdish had just passed.
Bhairon was very angry at this deception, and slapped Jagdish and scolded him very badly, and everybody was very angry at him. Not able to take this, he ran away from home and reached the town. However, a town is not a very good place for a young sheltered boy such as Jagdish, and he came into the eyes of a gang who exploits young boys.
In the meantime, the family found that Jagdish was in the town, and Anandi along with Bhairon came to the town to locate Jagdish. They eventually found Jagdish when he was trying to run away from the people who were trying to cut his legs off; eventually Jagdish managed to run away and straight into the arms of Anandi. However, a tragedy was in place, since a bullet was fired on Jagdish and Anandi took this bullet (with the background information being that Anandi will go into a coma so that she can take time off for her studies in real life).
Hindi Serial – Yeh Rishta Kya Kahlata Hain – Naitik makes up, and is apparently high on bhang
On March 09, 2010 in Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, Romance, Star Plus, TV
Ever since Naitik and Akshara separated, it became clear that Naitik was on a high horse, not wanting to forgive any slight mistake on Akshara’s part; even when their elders had conspired to get them together, even a small slight was enough to get him angry again. At this, his parents and his grandparents were not exactly very happy with him, especially when he went home angry from Akshara’s house, the evening before Holi.
The next day, on Holi, they were surprised since they expected that Naitik would still be angry, but it turned out that he was full of the Holi spirit, willing to apply color on everyone and had got all his friends over (except for his former best friend Mohit, who he started avoiding ever since he got to know that Mohit and Nandini were in love with each other).
Then he vanishes suddenly, and his family is very surprised and puzzled as to where he has gone (although most viewers would have realized that he would have gone to Akshara’s house), and that is indeed where he goes. Akshara’s family is very surprised to see him there, but they treat him like the respected son-in-law he is; and the makers of the serial have tried to show him as a person who has taken bhang, and is now somewhat high. His inlaws see him in this strange behavior, but they cannot say much to him; although they do let his parents know that Naitik is over there. This causes his family to suffer some surprise, since they did not expect him to go there, and also because they have to get ready to go to the other house and for that they need to take sweets and other stuff. By the time they get there, Naitik has asked them to get Bhang, something that they are surprised about, but still get for him. Akshara is very surprised at all this. And then his family gets there, and they are surprised at seeing him in this state, although Naitik tries to control himself.
Hindi Serial – Bidaai – Sadhana facing a lot of questions about the divorce, and Vasu arranging for marriage with Mallika
On March 08, 2010 in Bidaai, Character, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, Masala, Saas-Bahu, Star Plus, TV
One wonders about these serials, how they show people stretching to breaking point, and how good is almost never rewarded, and if it is rewarded, then only for a short while, and then everything becomes bad again. Here, Sadhana is the perfect daughter, bahu (too perfect, since she keeps on taking everything – in the Gita, it says that you should always speak up for the truth, and she keeps on hiding it one way or the other).
So, here Sadhana had signed the divorce papers since she needed the money from Vasu, and Vasu wanted to see the end of the Sadhana – Alekh relationship so that she could get Alekh married to Mallika (did she never think that Mallika is a much more strong willed girl, and would not be so easily pushed like Vasu keeps on pushing Sadhana). Here Sadhana is not willing to reveal where she got the money from, and even told Alekh that she had signed the divorce papers since they did not have much of a relationship; as a result, Alekh is torn between moving away and his love for Sadhana. Only Ranveer is the one who continues to believe in this relationship and is shocked when Vasu tries to get Alekh and Mallika to get engaged fast, it is only Alekh who refuses to get engaged immediately, although Vasu is confident that she will get him engaged to Mallika within 2 days.
Ranveer has a strong conversation with Alekh where he tries to get Alekh to remember all that Sadhana did for him, including getting him out of his state and making him the strong confident person he is now, but Alekh is still shocked by the fact that Sadhana confirmed to him that she wants to divorce him.
In the meantime, Ragini comes to the house and declares that she is shocked by Sadhana’s decision to divorce Alekh, something that the others in the house don’t know; they are equally shocked. They all apply pressure to Sadhana, but she refuses to reveal the reason for why she took this decision, and though her Mamaji is clearly disappointed, he does not try to force her. Vinu also tries, but is unable to get her to reveal the reasons why he did so.
Hindi Serial – Na Aana Is Des Ladoo – Ammaji trying other tactics to put a lot of load on Sia after Raghav accepted her
On March 04, 2010 in Colors, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Na Aana Iss Desh Ladoo, Ruthless, Saas-Bahu, Society, TV
It was a very surprising scene, and not what a lot of fans of Sia would have thought. After all, she had sworn to take revenge against everybody who had mis-treated her and her father, and for that, she had taken up position in Ammaji’s house as a servant. And for that, Ammaji, who never trusted her, first made sure that she knew her position very clearly in the house, and treated her exactly like a servant, and not like a daughter-in-law; to the extent that when the DM came to their house for taking one of the ladies for the night, Ammaji put Sia also on display.
And yet, the makers of the serial have shown some stuff that is certainly not part of revenge. Even though Ammaji showed no signs of changing any of her behavior, and remained as evil as ever, Sia saved her life when she was shot by a bullet. And for that, Ammaji had not the slightest amount of gratitude. In fact, Ammaji was planning to get a new daughter-in-law for Raghav, something that he was going through. But it seemed like the ploy that Sia had was to get Raghav won over and respect her as a wife, and he finally accepted her (hardly a mark of revenge, given that Raghav was complicit in many of Ammaji’s crimes). It was only when Raghav has accepted her that her status has changed in the household; but even then, Ammaji has not left any chance to still try and get Sia away from Raghav. She managed to persuade Sia not to have a physical relationship with Raghav for 3 months since this has been recommended by the family priest, and then is subjecting Sia to a lot of pressure in the kitchen, making her cook the food for the entire family.
