Deweni Inima 2018 December overall Review

Hello guys! I hope you are all good and well and having an amazing 2019. I am of course living my usual pathetic life surrounded by nothing but books. Yes, you guessed it right…I am getting ready for another exam and to any potential law student out there the only thing I want say is “Say good bye to life beyond exams for a few years”. So while I was having my usual exam issues and after my laptop decided to give up on me (AGAIN!), I wasn’t able to play an active role in the blogging scene. Since then a lot of dramas worth talking about have come out and rest assured I will be reviewing most of them.

So leaving all this behind shall we get down to business shall we?

Deweni Inima is just about to hit a milestone…yes ma’am it’s gonna hit 500 episodes today and I got to say that it didn’t feel that way. I mean if it was an Indian drama you would have obviously given it up at about 100 episodes because of its dumb editing and floppy storylines. However I gotta say that even though Deweni Inima did feel draggy and of course depressing (because of Samalka of course) at times I was unable to just give it up. The characters just grew on me over time and at this point they bloody seem real life kids to me. So in this way we can say that Saman Edi did a good job with characters and storyline over time. Of course, there were let downs and plot holes at points but these weren’t so major like in an Indian drama where a dead character comes back alive!

During the time I wasn’t able to write, we all saw Samalka’s character finally leaving the show and this was something I prayed they would do because the character was just R-U-B-B-I-S-H. I am very sorry if hurt anyone’s feeling but Samalka was just a beggar at one point in time and she just wasn’t the girl we met in the first few episodes. Personally though I gotta say I hated Samalka all along. I watched Deweni Inima straight after watching Sujatha on Sirasa Tv starring Nehara Peris and she was a bloody strong female character yet in Deweni Inima Samalka was a a “shee shee foo foo” right from the start. She wasn’t able to give up on an abusing boyfriend and she was begging money…she was unable to feed herself…I seriously don’t know what Saman Edirimuni was on while writing her character! Overall it was a good riddance.

When it comes to her relationship with Anuhus it was what I would call “emotional abuse” on Anuhus just because he had to be with Samalka all the time in her emotional turmoil but when he goes through something she would be like “Anee Anuhus be strong…when you fall like this how I can I be with you” or she wouldn’t even care about it and talk about her problems. Seriously Anuhus deserved someone way better and right I fell Lihini is that girl but as always Saman Edi is on drugs and so he brought in Saheli to kinda screw up a potential “Lihini – Anuhus” love story (Guys look forward to a separate blog post on these two sweeties coming up in the future).

So now that Samalka is out of the picture let’s get down to Saheli... we still haven’t seen much of her and apart from the fact that she looks way older than a 17 year old there isn’t much of a character development to talk about as of yet. Something I noticed was that she is similar to Dewmi at that age and maybe it’s this youthfulness that Anuhus finds attractive in her. Personally she way to old looking and way too whinny to be a 17 year old (I live with one..I do know how a 17 year old girl is). My assumption is that this is just a little distraction for Anuhus after Samalka. After all if he and Lihini get together as soon as Samalka is out of the picture it would put the blame of Samalka’s leaving on Lihini. So maybe Saman Edi is playing safe here. So it’s finally time for Anuhus to make some major mistakes in the “girlfriends department” before he falls for the right girl. That would actually keep things very realistic as in real life guys do go through so many girls before finally falling for one. Of course I can assure you that right at this moment my future hubby is night clubbing with his girlfriend whom he like a fool believes to be his “forever gal” (poor poor sweet hubby XD).

Overall when it comes to Saheli I feel there needs to be more character development and I want to see Lihini being jealousJ. I gotta say that the scene where Lihini, Anuhus, Dewmi and Avantha walked together to the exams hall was just amazing and I hope that it is foreshadowing what is to come in the future.

 Talking of all this 2018 has been a very problematic year for Dewantha. Well of course half these problems were created by themselves as Anuhus correctly pointed out last Friday XD. Our poor dears being teenagers are being rebellious and neither of their respective families are happy about it. It all ended up with Ananda deciding to take Dewmi away from Avantha and Avantha’s family pushing him towards his father’s business. This of course didn’t quite push these two apart but rather pushed the two together. They finally understood that they love each other and they started their relationship. At this point of course what pissed me off was the fact that they did not say their “I love you-s” to each other but then a friend of mine kindly pointed out that apparently in real life they don’t do it that way anymore :P. They of course confessed their feeling to each other through their own song which recently hit 3M views on You Tube if I am not mistaken.

The only issue I had with these two’s love life was the fact that Ananda and his hatred of Avantha kinda kept dragging and Dewmi was torn between her love for her father and her new found love for Avantha. In real life I know that this would be the case but I felt that as it was a drama in the drama world that Avantha and Ananda would patch things up quickly and live an happily ever after.  In addition to this I wanted Avantha and Dewmi to meet up in secret and share tokens of love and stuff but then I believe I need to keep away from Shakespeare for awhile because maybe that stuff doesn’t happen in real life either?

However, real life or not I just want Avantha to understand that even though being a hero makes Dewmi fall more in love with him it does reduce the freedom they have together. He continues to bother either Ananda or Anusha and even though he believes it is an act of heroism and rebellion it does not reduce the chances of Ananda beating him to pulp. His dumb tricks do make a girl swoon over him but it does also make that same girl’s life miserable. I just want Avantha to understand that unless Dewmi and he are patient about their love they are gonna end up in a real bad place if they go on rebelling against their parents. Since Dewmi’s exams are over Ananda might just get her married off to some guy and poor Av would end up being the best men instead of the groom at Dewmi’s 

wedding.

Overall though after school finally ended and so did the exams we can hope for some interesting story-lines hopefully. Avantha has already spoken to Anuhus about the business which means that the 26% and 25% will soon be resolved. Obviously our little baby Avantha cannot fight the demons on his own especially since he is a hot head. I feel Anuhus will be able to calm this guy down and give him some strong advice. Ohhh god...I just hope there will be more bromance in the future...these two are so cute together and its like watching a Korean drama :P. So let's all pray to the drama gods that we will get more bromance as much as we get romance <3.  So cheers to a whole year of Deweni Inima and congratz to the DI team on reaching 500 episodes.
