Week – June
27th 2016 – July 1st 2016
Howdy guysJ. How are you guys doing? I am fine
and quite addicted to the TV series Suits (Omg Harvey is just such an awesome
lawyer). Yes of course Season 6 is coming out this July 15th and I
would highly recommend this series to you guys if any of you are interested in
the legal system. I quite enjoy the lovely senior- junior relationship between
Harvey and Mike which turns into being a really good friendship. Anyways let’s
get back to business. You guys know that this was quite a chaotic week on WP. I
was quite surprised how things turned out in the end. I apologise profoundly
about this delayed review but I got caught up in a really nice book (“The Cat
who turned on and off”, anyone?). Enough of the chatter, let’s get down to
business.
So this week WP took a surprising
turn which left me flabbergasted aka utterly stunned. Let’s start off with what
happened to Akila and Sonali. As mentioned in the last week’s review Sonali
lost her child. Now Akila is literally destroyed and his ego dampened. I was
quite surprised to see that with the death of the child Akila has given up his
ties with Sonali. He just goes to meet Sonali and let’s her know that he is
sorry (seriously...S O R R Y? You destroyed her child psychopath!). He doesn’t
even bother with Sanka (put that clenched fist down sissy! You are no match for
Akila) and just walks out of the hospital...he seems like he is in a zombie
like trance. Sonali too says that she is not afraid of Akila anymore (how many
times have you said that?) but Sanka seems sceptic. What surprised me the most
is that Sonali did not go home for like 1 week and Malini doesn’t seem to
notice. Even when she calls, Sonali does not talk about the lost baby, which
was quite staggering. I mean where is the typical Sri Lankan Mother – Child
relationship?
I also need to tell you guys that Sonali’s acting is not
good. As a mother who lost her child she should have been most traumatized and
probably more anguish. Even though she had no feelings for Akila how could a
mother not have a strong attachment to one’s baby? The director should have put in more
suffering, agony, pain and distress. Sonali on the other hand simply sleeps on
her hospital pillow and does nothing more than what she usually does. Is she a
bad actress or is it the director’s fault is beyond me. However congrats
Kavinga/Akila your acting was top notch, you were born to do the villain.
Now on to our A&A couple. Firstly Aditya is searing with
jealousy. This is mainly due to Malith’s non employer like interest in Astha.
This makes him act all angry with Astha and it was kind of cute. I loved it
when he hugs Astha in the kitchen and explain to her that this was his house,
his car and his money. Lol this was the ever famous “My car my petrol.” speech
and it kind of matched Aditya’s arrogant and partly snobbish character. However
his words were contradicted when Malith comes into the kitchen and Aditya just
runs outJ.
Malith's children. |
This unwanted attention by Malith and the kid’s wanting of a
mother pushes Aditya to rob the “wanted” files from Malith’s room in the middle
of the night. Aditya not only discovers the papers but also that Malith dreams
about Astha. Wooh! Red alarm here to Aditya and he just runs away with the
papers. He then informs the good news to Astha and tells her to run away with
him. After some hair raising situations Astha manages to get out of the house.
Anyhow their happiness is short live when they discover that Aditya had brought
the wrong papers.
Ok I have to reprimand this jump of logic. First of all
Aditya saw the files before he got them from Malith’s room. Secondly he had plenty
of time to read them in his room before he planned to run away. I mean are the
screen writers telling us that Aditya is illiterate or something. I mean he
could read so why did he just get the document with Shakya’s sign? This was a
serious jump of logic, mind you. WP is just been dragged at the moment. I
believe that since there is a good following for the drama the director is just
dragging it up until it reaches 400 episodes. Also have you guys notice that
the cute A&A scenes are quite spare?
Where are the cute scenes? |
If the drama is to get any more interest, then the screen
writers must make it more romantic. After A&A got married they have totally
lost their spark...what’s up there screenwriters? I would recommend more secret
hugs. More secret meet ups in their rooms. Since they have to hide themselves
from Malith this would be far more romantic that it usually would be. My advice
to the screenwriters is milk the situation when the opportunity offers itself
on a silver platter.
On the other hand Malini and Shakya are having a way better
time than the A&A couple. They go to temple together and Shakya is getting
back to be the usual Shakya. They almost meet up with Shakya’s ex girlfriend
but she doesn’t see him. She does come to their house though but yet she
doesn’t meet him. Mmm...Destiny seems to be keeping them apart.
So this is what happened this week. I have to say that since
the drama is getting very draggy I am not in the mood to review it as often as
I would like to. Trust me, when a drama gets draggy I just switch channels and
watch another drama. I have to say that Sal Sapuna does seem promising but
after the flop called Sujatha I just don’t have the stomach for another one of
Sirasa’s flops...remember Uthum Pathum?
Sirasa has the habit of forgetting that for audiences who
watch dramas the characters are alive and kicking. Sirasa just believes they
could kill off a character, make the main heroine loose her child and have
everyone else have tragic ends simply because they need more views. The very
fact Uthum Pathum won the most popular drama award, shows that the drama
festival was a fraud. Anyways hope you guys enjoy this review. Keep tuned into
Drama Queen as I am putting up a post on a new Indian drama and a review of
Adarai Man Adarai (Kum Kum Bhagya). J J J J J .
