11/11 GIF Review: Suno Chanda
REWRITING THIS FOR THE SECOND TIME.
Hi Guys! Long time no see, literally forgot the password to the forum some time ago and just really didn’t have a reason to post anything. But I promised a friend and here I am. And since forum gave me a hard time, decided to open a tumblr and post it here! Lets see if this works!! Creds to Mina Birdie for helping me with layout questions!
When Abhi broke Pragya’s fast during Karwa-chauth:
So the “OMG YES” Naina loved it. She was all about this! I have been wanting to see possessive, “she’s mine” Abhi since Drunk Abhigya at Puliyah’s engagment way back in 2014 when they were chotay motay bachay! You know, when he ridiculed her at every point in time? When he wanted absolutely nothing to do with her? When he had tried to minimize her rituals, including their first karwachauth and couldn’t see beyond the materialistic things he thought he wanted. When he took forever in realizing theres more to her than just “Chashmish?" YEARS Later, we’re seeing that same Abhi run around frantically trying to find a pot to fill water with so that he can make it in time for Pragz to see him first right after the chaand comes out so that he can break her fast and they can be bounded together religiously for saath janam.
That really happened. HOW EPIC. The guy who didn’t believe in God, the guy who thought rituals were a joke, the guy who didn’t think these things could ever create an everbinding relationship is now HANGING ON DESPERATELY at all of these rituals for a chance to have any remaining bits of a relationship with Pragz. Y TO THE ES. Whether that be when he feels estatic after he accidentally fills her parting with sindoor, when he gets sad seeing Pragz buy an mangalsutra in Kings name at the jewelry shop, when he doesn’t break Tanu’s fast, when he doesn’t put an mangalsutra on Tanu in front even as a show. He does another head bump cause Daasi had said bumping your head twice is auspicious! He’s become as SANSKAARI as PRAGZ-BABY!!!
But then I realized alls not well:
Here comes the catch. SO in his mind, he fully thinks without a doubt that Pragya is married to King and has been for the last seven years. And even if he thinks there are residual feelings Pragz may have for him, she seems content with King and was fasting for him. And remember, this is the girl that was with Abhi through thick and thin and never gave up on him regardless of any poor choices and decisions he made….and yet after her surviving through the revenge part of the marriage, tolerating tanu as the constant third wheel in their relationship, being kidnapped countless times just for being Abhi’s wife, losing a sister in the middle of this, having to re-develop feelings in Abhi’s heart when he lost his memory and she was politely "kicked out” of the house, being doubted upon her intentions during many phases in the marriage…and yet she stuck by him rock solid. And yet after everything, she was still kicked out by Abhi in less than one minute and was never searched for for seven years. Can you imagine her going through that pregnancy alone? Where did she go after leaving his house? How did she manage to find shelter? When did she find out she was pregnant? Was her delivery normal or did she deliver early out of stress?
Do you see what I mean? She’s gone through A LOT of struggles because of him but when she needed him most…he wasn’t there. So for him to be possessive after seven years of not being there for her and wanting to have every right for the night when he thinks King took good care of her (and Im guessing he did for Pragz and Kiara to admire him so much)…its like, do you really have any right to be possessive? Yes, sure because I’m a hardcore Abhigya shipper, yes you do. But really, does a guy who kicked out his EXTREMELY understanding wife seven years ago and married her biggest enemy get to have any rights on her seven years later? Um…you can answer that for me.
When Aliyah and King show up on screen together:
Okay I get it, she’s evil and he’s pretty much a saint right now, why ship them and make his life miserable? But GUYS. Hear me out. At the end of the day, I think Aliyah is redeemable versus Tanu. Yes she hates Pragya, but there have been many moments in the show where you realize she cares about the Mehra family, in particular Abhi. She does get hurt when she sees them physically hurt. She has blasted Tanu in the past for dangerous tricks shes had up her sleeve. And it does kinda make me sad that seven years later, Aalu is still hung up on PURAB FOR WHO KNOWS WHAT REASON? Let him go babe, even the face has changed now (Arjit to Vin). Like come on writers, why can’t we have Aalu move on when it comes to Purab and bring in a love angle for her? Because the Aalu-Purab-Disha-Bulbul triangle is static as it can be!
And here’s why King would be great for her. Meet Aliyah, a girl who loves Abhi her bhai but dislikes Pragya. Meet King, a guy who admires Pragya fully but isn’t a particular fan of Abhi. He’s like the Raghav from Mina’s fics He’s the PERFECT balance for her! See, I dont want to see Aalu die at the end. I hope she does get redeemed and can be shown accepting Abhigya, because I don’t want Abhi to lose another family member in the process of Abhigya uniting. Which for all of you who ship King and Pragya, I get it BUT IT AIN’T HAPPENING. And I would much rather see King as a supportive best friend ‘til the end then a psychotic lover who now also hates Pragz. Because I really love the King-Pragz dosti so lets not ruin it. Lets find Aalu someone who give the wittiest replies to her sarcastic dialogues, who will not tolerate her cunning plans, who can put up with her negativity and someone who admires Pragya so that Aalu can start seeing the other edge of the sword.
Plus, Shikha and Mishal might look smoking on screen I’m ALL FOR THIS SHIP.
What Purab has been doing this fall season:
Not sure if its because Vin has been busy personally? But someones gotta give him something to do. He’s becoming another wax statue in the back like Tau-ji and I’m already upset Raj became one, lets not let Purab become the third in line. Theres so much potential for him. Lets show him a different story line? Lets show how him and Disha are not getting along about something. Lets show him wanting to catch up on seven years with Pragya di. Lets show him trying to show Abhi what a TERRIBLE decision it is to keep Tanu in the house, regardless of whether he gets Pragz in the end or not. Writer-ji? Please kuch karein.
When kicking out Tanu from the house and his life is not the first option:
Maaf kiya Abhi threw Pragz out. Maaf kiya he didn’t try finding her for seven years. Maaf kiya he pretended he didn’t love her in front of his family all these years. My problem forever and always with Abhi has been, and this is more of a writer issue, that he can never be shown single. If he doesn’t have Pragz with him, in some way or another he has Tanu by him.
Now disclaimer: I have no real issues with Leena being on the show all these four years. At some point in time I realized Tanu would be part of this show til the end and I’m not saying remove her from the show. I get from Tanu’s point of view, that she’s a desperate soul-less creature who doesn’t see that there is no chance she’s ending up with Abhi. For her, she’s gonna keep trying in one way or another regardless of how many times she fails. But wait..why would she stop trying when Abhi does give her a chance every single time? Not that I’m Tanu, but if I wanna keep trying for the impossible and it does become possible for short periods of time MANY TIMES, um yes I’m going to keep trying!
Problem isn’t with Tanu? Problem is with Abhi. He GIVES her a chance. He knows she purposely created misunderstandings between him and Pragya constantly throughout the past, he knows shes capable of hurting people in order to obtain him, he knows she’s tried failing the brakes and murdering Pragz in order to get our out of her way, he knows she’s evil. And yet, when Pragz was kicked out, for some reason or another, he had “NO CHOICE” but to marry Tanu. Are you even serious.
The choice is not to marry anyone. Marry a turtle but don’t marry her. Marry a poster of Madhuri Dixit but don’t marry her. Marry your first cousin but don’t marry her. Marry your clingy Meethu but don’t marry her. Marry PURAB BUT DONT MARRY HER.
Or you know. Dont marry at all. That IS AN OPTION, Abhi. Staying single is a solid option, you know. And lets say Pragz is happily married with King for the past seven years and theres no chance of getting back together with her at least in this janam.
You’ll just passively live your life with Tanu because Pragz isn’t available? And how are you going to win her back with a horrible wife at the side? KICK HER OUT!! THAT IS ALWAYS THE WAY TO GO!
When Pragz shows sass and attitude post-leap:
I have full on been enjoying the Abhigya scenes. Every single one of them!! And while i do have some complaints with Abhi post-leap (okay many complaints), you do get to see the happiness that lights within him when she’s around. In filmy terms, Abhi has everything- glam, lifestyle, respect, paisa, gaari, ghar, maal waal , ghar baar….but he doesn’t have anyone who loves him for Abhishek Mehra. She’s the girl in all these years that didn’t give a fudge that he was Abhi the Rockstar, looked past every single flaw that he presented to her, and loved him for the child-like Abhishek Mehra thats buried within him. And for him, getting that kind of love…is rare. She wasn’t in it for the money, she was in it for him. And you can see that even amongst the whole family, when she’s not around, he’s lonely. So I definitely feel for him and like that he’s finally getting his Fuggi doses…he just need to make a few obvious decisions and then I’m sold on him.
But Pragz has been FIRE! She’s not the same Pragz from seven years ago. This Pragz gives sassy replies. This Pragz shows anger and is not afraid to vocalize it. This Pragz isn’t afraid to remind Abhi of the biggest mistake of throwing her out. This Pragz is no longer interested in EXPRESSING her love for him! Yes, of course, we know she’s still totally latoo-fied by him. And sighhh. What can I say? The heart wants what it wants. But she’s almost accepted that they’re not going to end up together, for their own sakes and Kiara’s sakes. And she’s almost content with whatever little they have now. THIS IS DIFFERENT PRAGZ!! She’s no longer running behind Abhi trying to gain his love. Its almost the other way around! She’s the “girl that got away” and he’s trying to win back anything he can with her! HOW FREAKING AWESOME. I love this dynamic where she’s no longer running after him and its him trying to win her back.
The only complaint I have with Pragz-is not telling King who Abhi and Kiara are. Would make her life simpler. I do not advocate telling Abhi about Kiara though. Not when we all know he’s capable of making the worst decisions and allows creatures like Tanu to swarm around him and create dangerous settings at all points in time. Yes, no thank you please. I would also prioritize my kid over telling the passive father just for the sakes of him knowing.
Okay lastly, can we take a minute to appreciate this:
THIS GIRL IS GETTING YOUNGER AND YOUNGER BY THE DAY!!!! DREAM GIRL IN EVERY ESSENCE! I know we like to point out days when the outfits are not par excellence. But then lets also appreciate the days when Tripti has gone beyond expectations! Everything about this is love!!! Also love how Srit’s been incorporating some “raised eyebrows” and “suppressed smiles” and “biting lips” as new flirty connotations. LOVE LOVE.
Until next time, Cheers!
