Dewani Inima overall review April 2017

These 3 are awesome....so fuuny :)

Hello dearies J. I am back with a bloody BANG!!! I am sorry about my language but I am a bit high after drinking Mountain Dew and I know that might sound so bloody weird. But seriously I get high on coffee and loads of sugar and I act like a complete jackass J. So let us get to the bloody review, actually come to think of it my favourite word in this whole post is gonna be “bloody”J. Let’s get started shall we? J.

The girls need to switch :)

So to tell the bloody truth I am so bloody pleased with Dewani Inima right now. The plotline is epic and it keeps my poor soul entertained. The story itself is expending at a rapid speed and finally we are able to see the overall story line. So throughout this post I am hoping to put forward where exactly this drama will head towards this year. However I am not 100% sure whether I could keep this promise because I am pretty high and there is a high tendency for me to go off track with loads of fan girl comments or utter rubbishJ.

That look :P "I so pity you look:P" They will become good friends..u will c:)

This month of course we did see Anuhus and Avantha’s rivalry go to a whole new level. I mean, at first they were just half brothers but now they are in love with the same girl (Samalka). This love issue of course wouldn’t just stop at rivalry; it might even lead to the death of one of these cute guys (no kidding). I personally don’t like Samalka and her strategy. Look, I know some of you guys are head over heels in love with her but she is Avantha’s girlfriend but is doing all the “talk” with Anuhus. I mean at least she should separate herself from Avantha. As we did see yesterday she is being physically abused by Avantha (don’t you guys tell me the way he pulled at her arm was “normal”) and yet she is so submissive and doesn’t even raise her voice. I do however like the love triangle between Dewnie, Samalka and Anuhus (Muwahhhhhahhhaaaahhaa: P)

However, in saying this I really do like to see Avantha find a cute gal who would help him settle down. I am a sucker for that kind of “girl change guy” situations. In fact my bestie’s love story was one such “situation”. The perfect person to so change Avantha I feel will Dewnie (I so hope I spelt it right). I mean, she is innocent and good as oppose to Avantha who is a playboy and is in the necessarily evil side. After all, I personally believe that people who have opposing personalities have more chemistry.

Yes, Yes, I do know that Dewnie is in love with Anuhus but why cry over spilt milk? If she cannot get one brother then choose the other, after all they are both drop dead gorgeous J ( I know that sounds really bad :P Just imagine me as a girlfriendJ). Anyhow I have to say that just maybe Avantha may get overly friendly with Dewnie just to take revenge from Anuhus but in the long run fall in love with herJ ( I know that I am romantic at heart and hope for too much :P).

Spoilers: :P (kinda)

you see why my mom didn't allow me to watch this :P

I also like to point out that the overall idea of Dewani Inima is not very “original”. Parts of the storyline are pretty much a copy of One Tree Hill which was a pretty famous America drama. However to be 100% truthful I like Dewani Inima better. One Tree Hill is similar but the overall feeling I have is that I could relate more to Dewani Inima.

Lucas and Peyton aka Anuhus and Samalka in Dewani Inima.

I have of course not watched One tree Hill fully and only noticed the similarity when a blog reader commented on it (Thank you Oshani J ). It was the kind of the show that my mom didn’t allow a nine year old to watch and I just watched sections of it because my brother had a crush on Sophie Bush ( though he never admitted it :P ). My advice to those people who have never watched One Tree Hill is don’t search it up now because you will be spoilt big time. Plus be warned that One Tree Hill had some weird plotlines and halfway through the season you find everyone is sleeping with everyone else. I hope Derana will not do this dumb thing too. The plot in that drama has some weird problems cropping up which are not at all logical and very realistic. If that kind of crap crops up in Dewani Inima then well I will give it up *trust me!*.

Nathan and Haley aka Avatha and Dewni

Overall this year I feel that Dewani Inima is doing a great job drawing in all the youth because I know loads of people who are watching this drama and these guys never watch “Sinhala tele dramas”. In saying this though, I have to point out that screen writers should put some strength into Udeni because the only thing she does is cry throughout the drama. I wish she becomes more independent, I know that the life of a single mother is not an easy one but come on! I mean half the time I feel she is still in love with that rascal Ravi and that’s not very feminist. When we actually think about it the female characters in this drama are 100% traditional and that’s not quite feminist as such. We have the tiger mom –Anjula, and then we have the typical “good” mom – Udeni and 2 bloody love sick teenagers. I like to see more spunk from the female characters.

So I think right now things are not that bad but I feel things will get really heated up in the near future. I hope Derana continues this great trend. I mean these recent years Derana has really gone out there and put forward good ideas which really became big hits. Dewani Inima is another such example and I really hope Derana will not dish shit out by copying One Tree Hill (I mean it has some very unrealistic plotlines and sometimes get really draggy). I will of course try and rewatch One Tree Hill (actually watch 9 seasons) and put a compare and contrast post in the near future. I might be able to do it very soon but hey I ain’t giving you any promises. Till the next post then adieu J.

These two r epic:)

Deweni Inima (2nd Innings) on Tv Derana.

Janathri Weeratunga 10:00 PM 2 Comments

A bit old but hey the caption is right...say no to Indian dramas :)

Hello guysJ. I am sorry again for not posting in a hell of a lot of time, but then I am stuck with my Second year at UOL and trust me it’s not easy. My life currently consists of only one thing and that is stress. This year, I hope will be a great year for all of you and I do hope that I get through this year with flying colours ;if it’s not too much to ask just pray for a good 2017J. Today I am not here to blabber about my stressful life or how much I dislike commercial law but to give you guys a review/trailer review of TV Derana’s latest drama Deweni Inima. If you have not heard about it already just don’t be surprised because it still hasn’t started on TV. I saw a lot of potential in the trailer which is about 5 minutes and decided to voice my thoughts. This review is just my personal view of the drama and pictures used are ones on the internetJ. Let’s get started shall we?

This drama review is full of assumptions, mind you J .

Okay so this drama is strongly based on cricket and it just gives me goose bumps just watching it. After all I am a huge Sri Lanka cricket fan and I love the fact that Derana came up with the idea to finally put cricket in a drama; after all it is something in our blood. The drama itself is produced by Saranga Mendis and the script is by Saman Edirimuni and I have a feeling that is going to be a Sidu like hit if properly done.

Past –First Innings.

As Ravi

The drama seems to take the format of test match. A test match for those who don’t know has two innings. After the 1^st innings another innings is played. It is in this 2^nd innings that the real winner is uncovered. Sometimes in the 1st innings one team is really good and they seem to be winning but when the second innings comes sometimes they lose. The writers have used this cricket metaphor all over this drama. In the 1^st innings aka the past we see that one side ( the necessary evil/ unfairness) wining but in the 2^nd innings aka present we see the proper side ( justice/ fairness) finally reaching victory (I hope J). However this is just my idea of what this drama is about.

Himali Sayurangi as Anuhas's mother.

The story follows a national cricketer called Ravi (I hope I got the name right – played by Bimal Jayakodi) who starts a nice little love affair with a pretty girl who I assume is a music teacher (played by Himali Sayurangi). However with time we see this girl coming to Ravi’s house with a cute little baby boy and as we can all assume this little boy’s dad is Ravi. However being a real douchebag (and may other things I cannot tell to a civilized society) he just tells Himali that he will pay a monthly fee for the upbringing of the baby. With her whole life shattered Himali starts the challenging task of a single mother in the Sri Lankan society. At around the same time or at the time of the relationship with Himali it seems that Ravi got married and this wife (Anjula Rajapaksha) of his also has a cute little baby. It is clearly shown that Anjula really hates Himali (for obvious reasons) and treats Himali’s child pretty badly. From the trailer itself we can see that Himali’s life was far from beautiful and that she had to go through lots of hardship to bring up her little baby.

Anjula Rajapaksha as Avantha's mother

Present: The Second Innings – most properly where the name of the drama came from.

Raveen Kanishka an Anuhas

At about this point we have a time leap and this is where the drama gets really nice. Both the little boys have grown up and both are playing cricket. Anjula’s son is called Avantha (Keshan Sashindra) and Himali’s son is Anuhas (Raveen Kanishka). Both of they are arch rivals and this is where the drama actually begins. The past would most probably be shown in the 1^st week of the drama while the present will proceed from there on.

Keshan Sashindra as Avantha

I really love the fact that Tv Derana has brought in new actors to play the main roles. After all we all fell in love with Dilum Aiya in Sidu and he was a new actor. In the same way Keshan and Kanishka will probably become far more famous than they already are. These two guys are from 2 consecutiveTv Derana Dream Star seasons and while Keshan won the title Season 3, Kanishka became the 1^st runner up in Season 4. Both these guys are really cute and that is a word we rarely use in describing Sri Lankan actors (most actors are handsome but not cute right?). Both these fellows are young, hot (rawrJ ) and worth the watch. The rivalry between them would be really intense.

Add caption

I have a feeling that maybe finally we will as Sri Lankan drama fans get a firsthand experience of the 2^nd lead syndrome. The 2nd lead syndrome is where both the lead and the 2^nd lead are extremely good and you sometimes don’t want either to win (Gu Jun Pyo and Ji Hoo situation in Boys over Flowers).

Right now I am really rooting for Kanishka because he seems to be the lead plus I always had a crush on him (which explains why I was glued to the TV when he was in Dream Star Season 4J). Putting aside my deep dark secret let’s get back to the review.

From what I see from the drama there are two main female leads. One of them is played by Shanudrie Priyasad and she plays the role of Avantha’s girlfriend (I assumed that). It seems like she doesn’t like Avantha but likes Anuhas instead. However Anuhas has girlfriend who looks very innocent ( I believe the actress is the girl won Miss Sri Lanka for Miss Earth) and he seems to really love her. However the fact that Shanudrie likes Anuhas really seems to get to that girl and she seemed to be taunted by it. Let’s just hope she doesn’t break up with him because she does have really good on screen chemistry with Kanishka from what I saw in the trailer. Raveen/Avantha seems to think that Anuhas/Kanishka is a real threat to his love life and there seems to be a rivalry there too.

Shanudrie Priyasad - Sooo pretty <3

So overall this drama has so much potential. I believe Derana has learnt a lot form Sidu’s rise to fame and decided to aim for the young adults when creating this drama. Unlike Wassane Premaya or Sal Sapuna (dramas which air at the 8.30 time slot) this drama is clearly different and is more concerned with the youth and their playfulness rather than the bigger issues out there. Other dramas in the 8.30 time slot in Sri Lanka are usually aimed at the older generation and are about politics, marriage, children etc however this story revolves around 19 -20years olds who like me have lots of other pressing youthful problems that revolve around love, parents, studies and careers. I think this drama is worth it and from the looks of the trailer I would rate it 4 out of 5 in my drama scale and I would say I might give it a 5 if the standard is equivalent to Sidu.

So guys I hope you liked this review and I seriously recommend this drama to you guys, after all it is not every day you could swoon over some really cute guys on Sri Lankan Tv J. This drama will be starting on the 6^th of February 2017 at 8.25 on TV Derana and please do go on and watch it and stay tuned to another review on this drama after it premiers on the 6^th of Feb. BTW Thank you Derana for this awesome Birthday gift – I think I am already in love with this drama and really hyped about itJ and as always stay tuned to Drama Queen for the latest Drama reviews in Sri Lanka.

Dilum and Theruni ( A love story ) - Sidu

Janathri Weeratunga 2:50 AM 1 Comments

Well it has been sometime and I haven’t posted in awhile. However I did some work on my University blog and therefore was a bit on the busy side. Plus I have problems with Commercial law...it’s so hard peopleL. Since I missed you guys so much I just decided to post on a very “hot” topic these days. Well of course Sidu itself is a “hot” topic these days but the love story blooming in it is a separate “hot” topic altogether. Yes you guys guessed it right. I am talking about the cute love story (kind of) between Dilum Aiya (played by Yash Mihiran) and Thenuri (played by Maneesha-Chanchala). It’s getting better by the day and I just love it. Ahhh I am such a romance freak at heartJ. Please excuse me for my fan girl comments all over this post. So let’s get started shall we??????

The cute bicycle scene - lol the continuous bickering :)

Okay. So all this time that tiny, mean Heshan was posing as the potential “lover boy” in Sidu and I actually kind of liked it. I thought that he was really trying to make Thenuri fall in love with him because he really liked her. However it turned out that he was after her “green card”. In other words he was just a leech and just wanted to ride on Thenuri’s coat tails. His true intention was to get her to take him to England. After this destruction of all my romantic ideas about Thenuri and Heshan I really thought Sidu might not take a romantic turn.

Heshan on the left :)

However thanks to the ancient Greek gods of love – whoever they may be; sent me my guardian angel in the form of Dilum Aiya. He was always a lovable character and was also so upright and honest. He was thus the perfect Mr. Right aka my dream guyJ. If I remember right Dilum Aiya/ Yash Mihiran is the guy who won Sirasa Man Hunt in 2015. He is from Matara (My hometown) and was one batch behind my brother at his school St. Thomas College Matara. However all this doesn’t actually matter to me because no matter what, he is so freaking hot!! (Excuse my vivid fan girl descriptionsJ).

2015 Sirasa Man Hunt winner

Now Dilum is the son of the head master in the village and is fresh out of campus. He recently got a high end job as a website designer and is such a fine lad. Unlike Heshan I feel this guy has all the right qualities you want in a guy and the added advantage is he is so freaking cute ( fan girl swoonJ- excuse me again). He does show so much feeling for Thenuri/ Maneesha-Chanchala and right now I just want them to work out. He is always behind her and seems to be thinking a lot about her and I see that cupid has done his homework alright.( Dear Cupid I need a guy like that!!!)

However Cupid has totally forgotten his homework when it comes to Thenuri. She is just outright rude to Dilum (Awwww I am heartbroken over here people..L..). She shows so much “gas” (as Sri Lankan’s put it) when Dilum comes up to her and I just feel so sorry for Dilum.

Theruni :)

I have a feeling however that Sidu and podi Sadhu have a hidden agenda when it comes to this couple. Both these little fellows are allowing a relationship to bloom between Thenuri and Dilum Aiya by simply being childish. In recent times Thenuri’s hard outer shell is breaking and just this week she started talking to Dilum like normal human’s do. Hey! I see potential here. I seriously root for this couple!!!After all it is after so much time that I saw a really cute and romantic love story in a Sri Lankan drama especially after *Olu on Swarnawahini. If you guys haven’t watched Olu then it time you do because that was the most beautiful Sri Lankan drama I have ever watched, that is of course until I watched Sidu. I hope the people who are doing Sidu follow the example set by Olu and does a nice love story without all these copy cat scenes from Indian Soap Operas.

Right now I am not quite sure whether Thenuri and Dilum will be together but well if they aren’t then I am going to quit Sidu. After all we do need a nice cute love story for all the people in their 20’s who are watching Sidu right? I just hope the people behind Sidu will understand what the public want and put up a nice cute love story between Thenuri and Dilum instead of one between Thenuri and Heshan. If this love story does work out then of course Sidu will stay up as Sri Lanka’s best drama / Number 1 drama forever.

The 2 bad guys in Sidu right now

*****Pls take your time to vote on who you want to be the lover couple in Sidu...:) (Voting on the side bar).

*Olu was a legendary drama shown on Swarnawahini. It told of a story of a poor young schoolgirl (Olu – played by Manjula Kumari) who fell in love with her young English Teacher (played by Suraj Mapa). Their love story goes through many obstacles but in the end they succeed. I myself watched this drama at least 4 times. I might do a review on it later. This drama was so popular in Sri Lanka those days that everyone knew Olu.

Please note that my blog has a problem where I cannot see comments. Don’t be annoyed if I don’t reply however my email srilankacricket77@gmail.com is always open for you guys to mail J I also would like some of my blog readers for some solid information on OLU for my next post(if you could mail me then that’s great). I remember the story but the names have simply slipped my mind.....ENJOY J J J J J

Sidu/ Mali 3 2016 review (with background information on other seasons)

Janathri Weeratunga 7:13 AM 0 Comments

Hello guys J I am back with review of a drama which you guys really need to watch. Of course that is only if you guys haven’t watched it alreadyJ. So the whole of Sri Lanka is down with Sidu fever. It has become a household name and every bloody cat on planet Earth is a Sarana (the drama’s cat actorJ ) to the Sri Lankans. It has come to this point where every kid and every parent is glued to TV Derana exactly at 7.30 pm every week day. Forget those crappy Indian Soap Operas; forget those 6.30 Rupavahini dramas or even KDramas because here we are talking about a drama which took Sri Lanka by a storm.

Ape Sarana:)

The drama itself is a sequel to Mali 1 & 2 where we met a family who were born with the ability to control magic and use it for the betterment of society. So let us introduce our selves to this TV series before we go any further. So both Mali 1 and Mali 2 were commercially successful and so bloody popular.

Mali 1 promotional poster

The first season focuses on Dingiri Amma and her daughter Mali. Both these characters were highly talented in the field of magic and had the ability to cure people as well as defend them. The plot revolved around Mali and her love story with the doctor from Colombo, Nirmal. They had to face a lot of life threatening obstacles and Dingiri Amma was always behind them. The stories arch villain was Ukuwa and we see Mali and Dingiri Amma joining forces to destroy him and his black magic. In the end Mali gives birth to a baby girl, however according to her horoscope Mali should never see the child’s face or be near her because it will be bad on the child’s future. So Mali’s cousin sister also acts like she is pregnant and the baby is left in her care. The story ends with Mali going to England with Nirmal and Dingiri Amma promising to look after the little girl.

Mali 2 promotional poster

Okay so I wasn’t able to watch Mali Season 2 fully so I don’t remember the names (sorry about that.). Mali Season 2 comes with the title Athamma meaning Grandmother. Its plot revolves around Mali’s daughter who now lives with her grandmother. This story follows Mali’s daughter, a powerful magician from her childhood to her 20’s (till she falls in love). The drama was sweet as well as a nail biter. In this drama an evil spirit who looks exactly like Dingiri Amma is the arch enemy and the drama ends on a happy note.

Mali's Husband/Sidu's dad - Nirmal

(All these dramas are available to watch online and at the moment Mali season 2 is shown on TV Derana in the mornings).

Mali season 3 or as it is better known Sidu follows the story of Mali’s son who comes to Sri Lanka after Dingiri Amma’s death. He is a little boy of just 8 years and is far more powerful than Mali herself. However the little guy is hiding all this power from his own mother. The arch enemy in this drama is Ukuwa who is now an evil spirit. He wants this little child to grow older and become more powerful so that he can take the power from the child and regain a human body. The kid’s name is Sidu and soon after he arrives in Sri Lanka Nandipala (Ukuwa’s son) kidnaps him. After kidnapping Sidu, Ukuwa uses black magic to erase Sidu’s memories. So Sidu is then taken to Kurunagala by Nandipala where he is brought up as Nandipala’s nephew - Malitha.

Malitha/Sidu

It is in this little village in Kurunagala where we find the little monk Soratha and his pet cat Sarana. Soratha sadhu is a mere child of about 5 to 6 years who is just simply lovable. He is cute, intelligent and very naughty. He is Malitha’s best friend and partner in crime. Sarana is the little cat who is so naughty and yet is loved by all Sri Lankans. He is so famous that he is constantly mentioned even in Sri Lankan politics. If you walk around Colombo these days you are sure to find at least a half a dozen of three-wheelers which have famous lines from this drama stuck up on them.

Nandipala

So Mali 3 is all about children and their innocent childhoods. However a love story is blooming between Mali’s younger daughter and Nirmal’s friend’s son and I believe it will be a happy one. Malitha at the moment is using his power well but he cannot remember who he is or where he is from. The temple’s chief monk is quite surprised by the fact that Malitha can read and write English well, as well as his enormous power.

I believe it is not for long that Malitha will be hidden away as the Chief Monk is having doubts as to who Nandipala real is. Malitha did remember/see his mother briefly when Soratha sadhu takes off the “magic necklace” around Malitha’s neck for a little time.

Malitha has already made some very good friends at the village. His newest friend is a little girl call Hiruni who is the daughter of the owner of the coconut plantation Malitha is at. She is suffering from an illness where she can’t go out in the sunlight because it burns her skin. The illness itself is kept hidden from her and she is only allowed to go outside after 5.30pm when there is no sunlight. Malitha’s latest plan is to get little Hiruni cured. I personally believe that Malitha would cure the little girl from her illness. If the drama does go on till Malitha grows up then Hiruni could even be his love interest.

However I hope TV Derana keeps the small children theme because it is just beautiful that way. I mean Sri Lankan television is full of Indian dramas which have teenage pregnancies, child marriage and other highly adulterated themes. However Sidu is just a drama on children’s innocence. It is a drama I would allow my younger siblings to watch. I don’t have to change channels when there are scenes with sexual tension because Sidu has no such themes. In plain words I just love Sidu and hope Derana keeps up showing such great dramas and I also want to see a continuation of the Mali series.

So overall this drama is a must watch and I highly recommend it to you guys. While you would enjoy the innocence of small children, you will learn more about Buddhism and on our very own Sri Lankan culture. Hats off Derana for this epic drama and hope you guys keep up this high standards.

Hiruni's parents

Thus we end another review and hope you enjoyed it. Please take account that some of the names mentioned above maybe wrong. This is simply because it is a long time since I have watched Mali 1 or 2 and I also have this bad habit of naming actors after characters they acted as. Due to this Kavinga Perera is always Akila to me and Saranga is Aditya. If you guys do know the right names and more about Mali 1 and 2 please email me at srilankacricket77@gmail.com. Just don’t comment below because there is a problem on my blog where I cannot read comments. So keep tuned into Drama Queen to know the latest on Sri Lankan’s TV drama mania. J J J J J

WTF is happening on Wassane Premaya right now?

Janathri Weeratunga 6:59 AM 0 Comments

Hello guysJ. It’s been a very long time and I have been so bloody busy. I know I am guilty of not putting up WP reviews for a few weeks now. However to be honest I am not at all sorry about it. WP has become a sour apple in just a couple of months and it’s not quite a surprise. At the very beginning the plot was very solid and it was easier for us to understand the emotions of the characters. In just a couple of months WP has turned into just another draggy melodrama found on any Sri Lankan TV channel.

At first I thought WP would end with Astha regaining her memory and the D family getting their property back. However even after Malith is sent to prison and even after all the hardships faced by the D family, Shakya is yet the stone hearted man he used to be. I mean the damned climax of the drama was when Astha got her memory back but then the script writers just kept on dragging the drama to the point of no return.

Right now some new woman has come to take revenge from D family for sending Malith to prison. It’s just another story arc which would drag the drama on for another 100 episodes. I really don’t like this kind of “drama abuse”. I mean it is so painful to watch such a good drama fall apart. I have to accept the fact the Sirasa TV’s Sal Sapuna is a better drama than WP right now.

A few days back Aditya went through the same problems Astha went through its just

Draggggggging!!!!!

I don’t know what you guys are thinking about but I kind of getting sick of all the melodrama. I am sick of the fact that the script writers are dragging the “Malith drama”. It’s so annoying because right now WP should stop and a new drama should start. Even the A & A couple’s love story seems to be so boring. After Astha got her memory back the whole life of WP seems to have been sucked out of it. It’s just B – O –R –I – N – G!

So right now I will not be putting up the full on weekly reviews because I will be discontinuing this dumb drama. I survived through all its ups and downs but right now I feel I have gone through enough of this stuff. Either Hiru should end this drama or it should stop dragging the drama.

Therefore guys this might as well be the last post on WP on Drama Queen and I hope you guys enjoy it J. So guys, bye for nowJ. BTW I will continue my posts on new dramas entering the Sri Lankan Drama Industry and please stayed tuned onto Drama Queen for a Mali3 introductory post, Sal Sapuna Review and another new drama.

Memory Back – Wassane Premaya – Weeks 56 & 57 review

Janathri Weeratunga 10:45 PM 0 Comments

Week – August 29^th 2016 – September 9^th 2016

Howdy guysJ I know it’s a long time since my last post and I am sorry for being this late. I paid to University of London and my books haven’t yet arrived. To add to this the text book prices are so bloody expensive. So I am in a bit of a soup right now. I believe it will be October by the time everything settles down and then it will be 6 months of “working my ass off” to get a good grade for the second year. Anyway let’s not talk about my problems. Let us all move on to what is happening in the drama right now.

So these two weeks were quite a rollercoaster ride. I mean every bloody thing we have been waiting for, happened in theses two weeks and trust me the director left nothing out of the script. In the end we had annoying mothers, wife robbers, heartbreaks, confusion, love and friendship all packed up like a TV dinner, right in front of us in a matter of 10 episodes. I know most of you were very annoyed at the latest story track about Astha’s lost memory and yes I have been reading your Facebook comments on the WP fan page. However I have to say I kind of enjoyed the whole scenario. I mean Astha and Aditya’s love story wasn’t without its obstacles but we really needed to spice it up a bit, so that they had a memorable love story. All throughout the drama it has been Astha who had been patiently proving her love to Aditya in many scenarios. In all these situations Aditya had been an annoying and frustrating hot headed husband. As soon as Astha lost her memory Aditya has become patient and loving. While the new Aditya would patiently put a plan together to get Astha back the old Aditya would have shot a bullet through Malith’s head and that just shows how much he had changed. I believe now is Aditya’s chance to prove his love to Astha.

So this week we had Malith taking away Astha’s links to Aditya/ Aravinda. She is left utterly helpless as she believes she is losing a good friend when in reality it is her husband she is losing. Malith’s mother too puts ideas against Aditya in Astha’s mind and now she doubts whether he is really a friend. Sumudhu on the other hand is trying her level best to make Astha remember Aditya but it all comes down to nothing.

It is in this kind of helpless situation that Aditya decides it’s time to take a risk and make sure Astha remembers her past. I mean this poor guy cannot wait 50 or 60 years till Astha’s memory comes back, right? So our dear Romeo calls his Juliet and tells her to come to one last place before she cuts off all links with him.

Meanwhile, Manju has been put in by Malith to follow Sumudhu wherever she goes and this time it does look like she is in serious trouble. Manju sees that Sumudhu is spending time with Akila and thus calls up Malith to inform him that Sumudhu is actually Akila’s spy. So when Sumudhu arrives home she is put into a dark room by Malith and thoroughly questioned. During this questioning (which Sumudhu faces very well) Astha comes near the room and she too feels suspicious as to what Malith is up to. Going on this basis she decides to go to the place Aditya mentioned with Sumudhu just to see what he has to show.

So that night, Astha and Sumudhu arrive at Aditya’s place (where they used to live when all their money was taken by Malith). Inside is one of the sweetest things that I have ever seen. Hanging from the walls and from balloons are pictures of Astha at all ages. There were some cute couple photos and the A&A couple’s wedding video was being played through a projector. While Astha is going through all this, out of the blue Aditya and Mr. & Ms. D arrives just to tell Astha that they were the Danthanarayanas and that Astha was Aditya’s wife. Astha on hearing this just turns around and runs out of the house much to Aditya’s disgust. On the way home Astha is in tears and she calls Malith and tells him everything that happened. On returning home she just runs into Malith’s arms (much to my disgustL ). The next morning Astha is very cool with Malith and it actually surprised me. Malith just calls up Aditya and tells him that he had lost Astha forever and the game is over. Even though Aditya sounded strong against Malith on the phone as soon as he hangs up, he just falls apart.

Astha however is feeling strange and suspicious. This leads her to go check the Dunusingha’s storage room. Here she discovers Malith’s wedding photo with his real wife and discovers that her wedding photo is a fake. On the other hand Aditya is falling apart and thus ends up thinking about committing suicide. However halfway through he abandons the plan and throws his gun away. On his way home Aditya suddenly starts to feel dizzy and meets with an accident.

However soon after the wedding photo incident Astha starts to get her memory back even though it doesn’t look clear. Now as the audience we have a quick run through the A & A couple’s love story. Through the shock of the memories Astha faints in her room where she is later discovered by Malith’s mother.
