Hello guysJ. Most of my classes this week got
cancelled and so I have a little more free time in which I’m going to do some
blog work. This will be the first post for October but be assured that 3 more
posts will be posted on 3 different dramas within this month. I hope you guys
are doing fine and that things are all working out for you. Currently working
my ass off for my exams...things are “fine” let’s leave it at thatJ. It has been a while since I have
posted isn’t it? Those days I use to post about 135 posts a year but then
things have changed...priorities have changed and well life goes on. Let’s get
to the review shall we?
So this
month wasn’t the best Deweni Inima month ever because I felt it dragged certain
story arcs way too much. The first huge draggy scene was when Udeni’s shop got
sealed for the 2nd time and this time too, the culprit was Amesha. I
totally don’t understand why all Udeni can do is cry and cry all the time. I
mean look, when she opened the door and saw what has happened to her shop if it
was me my first reaction would have been to close the door. Also she wasn’t
even the tiniest bit suspicious as to how the PHI officers turned up exactly at
the time she opened that door. However thank god Anuhas and Danuka got a “whiff”
of it all being done by a “third party”.
With that
being said, I have to point out that the screen writers should seriously make
some effort to give more “power” to Udeni. She may have been a naive girl when
she was with Ravi but she raised a boy all on her own for 19 years and that
should make a woman stronger, not weaker.
I also didn’t like the fact that she is all “melty melty” when she
speaks to Ravi. Come on woman! He is a married man with an 18 year old kid!
Leave those old feelings at bay for god sake!
The next
draggy issues were on the bat and Samalka. Of course poor Anuhas has to spend
money on the bat and because of that he simply cannot pay Samalka’s boarding
fees. If I was Samalka I would just sell my bloody “Iphone” to get the cash! I
mean that bloody thing cost about 70000 rupees! She can pawn her chain to buy a
bat for Anuhas but cannot sell her phone to get boarding fees? What logic is
that? The only thing Samalka can do instead is cry her ass off and run to
Anuhas asking for help. The only thing she knows to do is to runaway to Mathale
every time an issue arises.
For Christ sake writers give this woman some spunk!
I also don’t get why the boarding aunty is all like “give me the money on time”
out of the blue when generally she is an understanding woman. I mean she
seriously can understand Samalka’s position right? She could have given her an
extra bit of time. I feel the writers wanted to show some “romantic vibes”
between Anuhas and Samalka and so they just pulled up this story arc but
seriously guys it is not romantic and cute in fact as a woman I feel it was
downright “unfeminist” and cringe worthy!
Apart from
these draggy bits I felt that overall it was an alright month. The latest twist
in the drama was the new “innocent” village girl who got a scholarship to the
city school. It is kind of a good addition because there really are these kinds
of new children coming to schools and some people simply don’t understand what
these children go through. I kinda felt sorry for the girl (Lehini) because she
is treated really badly by theses “Colombo” people. Then, to think about it she
is a bit too innocent and if it was me in that position (given that I am a
daredevil) I would have killed those Colombo shishi fufus (aka posh people)
mind you.
The way Samalka treated her is
very nice but then I have this bad feeling that Samalka might regret it later.
I really didn’t like the “almost romantic like” vibe around Anuhas and Lehini
and to add to that I felt that the interactions between them was amazingly
cute. There was a rumour going around that Samalka will get a cancer and die
which would make Deweni Inima have an “A fault in our stars” feel to it. If
this story is true then I would think it is good because it will make the series
more emotional.
Plus I don’t have much feeling towards Samalka – just feel her
character is not close enough to Anuhas. It has been over 175 episodes and both
of them haven’t even shown hints of romantic love – say I love you for god
sake! If Samalka is to die then I think Lihini must come in to help Anuhas cope
with the loss this would then lead to romance and love and etc. That really
would be an amazing storyline. Or maybe the writers could pair Lihini with
Chubby but then I don’t think it will work out. Deep down though I really hope the screen writers don't screw up the current Anuha - Samalka track...I don't like Samalka being ditched.
The cutest parts
yet this month were those between Dewmi and Avantha. I’m seriously rooting for
this couple. I love the way both these two people act cute around each other
plus I totally love Avantha’s cute smiles every time he sees Dewmi. I really
liked the I-throw-the-key-you-find it scene and how Danuka comes in and screws
everything up. These are the only scenes apart for Mike and Chubby’s comic
scenes which bring a smile to people’s faces. I really, really hope the writers
put way more interactions between these two and put some romance between
them. The chemistry is at such a high
level when it comes to these two on screen!
The Cubby
and Mike scenes also need to be appreciated because these two put so much
effort into their acting. Their little little playful things remind me of the
dumb stuff I did in my school years and it just gives a feeling of contentment
– if you get what I mean. Plus these two buggers are very good with their
Tamil- the Basha theme plan to trick Avantha was crazy J. The “war” between Lionel and Sonali Teacher is
also amazingly funny and sometimes the “wars” tend to be more flirting than
actually a fight (at least on Lionel’s part). Maybe the writers are going to
put these opposites together? It will be fun to watch no doubt J.
Anuhas’s
problems were a main theme throughout this month. It started off with the bat
and then ended with Chubby throwing Sheran in the air. The scene where Anuhas
is utterly humiliated by his own father and step brother was just so sad to watch.
I mean come on, why does Ravi have to show his “bitchiness” at Anuhas all the
time? But then I just loved it when Anuhas took it all back from Avantha by
blooding his nose but then if you watched closely you would have seen the
concern Anuhas had for Avantha.
Yes, for a moment Anuhas forgot that Avantha
was his step brother but then when his anger settled down it was replaced by
concern for Avantha (which is so cute – little brother- big brother scene).
This just showed to us just how well Udeni has raised Anuhas –it just proved
what Udeni said to Amesh “I have raised my son in a far better way than you
have raised yours.”
So that’s
all for this week and I hope you guys enjoyed this review, Don’t forget to be
tuned into to Drama Queen for the latest in the Sri Lankan dramaworld - <3
love you all <3
