We are halfway through the series and I still haven't felt like abandoning it! Yay! :-)
Episode ten starts off with Yudh and the minister having a conversation, setting up for a face-off most likely, in the typical "Don't screw with me! You wanna screw with me? You really wanna screw with me?" fashion. Well, when you have an accomplished director and an actor whose life and work are the stuff of legends, you are bound to have a great mood setter!
As the episode went on, like I said earlier, Mona's brother-in-law got quite creepy and involved himself in a trade-off with the Malik-Excalibur Club Owner duo. If I feel like I need to reach into the TV screen, wrap up a man in cellophane tape like a mummy and throw him in a river, yeah, the actor is good! (Really not that violent! Just deep dark thoughts *tee hee*).
Taruni's and Mona's characters got a sufficiently deserved BAMF status in tonight's episode. The earlier spark exhibited by both the characters, when they were introduced, was brought back to life tonight! Taruni, especially, had a nice moment where she went all CEO on the Shanti Construction quarters' caretaker and all responsible doctor on the villagers in a truly badass way!
The story has gotten somewhat complicated now. Here's what we know so far: Yudhishtir Siwarkar is the owner of Shanti Constructions, a huge construction conglomerate (dabbling in mining as well, as far as we've seen). Yudh is battling with Huntington's disease, a disease for which there is no cure and is getting progressively worse as the show progresses, with occasional panic attacks and hallucinations. Yudh is also battling the government, his competitors and the media to run a smooth and profitable business. Helping Yudh with his efforts are Anand, who I'm guessing is the COO and Mona, who must be the PR person for Shanti Constructions. All three, Yudh, Anand and Mona, have their own family dramas to deal with, which, occasionally, get mingled with the main plot (Phew! That's the show from ten episodes!)
Frankly, I'm glad that they've decided to take twenty episodes, instead of the twelve or thirteen that mini-series in India usually take. These extra episodes will give the makers sufficient time to address all the unresolved plots and still have some time left to add suitable accompaniments here and there
