Happy Belated Friendships' Day! :-)
Episode thirteen has very few scenes where Yudh is present and even fewer where he matters. Of course, the show has taken up some very interesting plot areas with Rishi investigating the happenings around their mining project and Anand being caught up in the death of an accomplice in the murder of Junior Malik. However, the brilliance of Yudh has been missing in the last few episodes. I know that I said that it would be good for the supporting cast to take centre stage, but it's been far too long since the plot was centred on Yudh more and less on one incident that they seem to be dragging far too long!
Zakir Hussain had a brilliant scene with a policeman and, although he isn't seen much without Yudh or his work, a lot of his performance unveils many aspects of the character that are veiled behind "Anand, the man flanking Yudh's right side."
Another thing that is a bit contradictory to me is Nayan's character. Her chemistry with Yudh, while easy and, at times, nicely domestic, barely reveals anything about their relationship. She seems to be constantly at a cold war with people and herself regarding her son. Sure, many people may be able to resonate with some of her emotions of concern towards her son, confusion and exasperation with the business problems, she doesn't seem to be so much dealing with them as she is just staring them down with kohl lined eyes.
Although I haven't reached the stage where I can say "forget it!" to the show and stop watching it, gaping misses in character development and plot holes have left me a bit exasperated. Yudh's only redeeming quality, at the moment, are some of its actors and, to a certain extent, it's witty dialogues. Hopefully, it does get to it's earlier "good" place before it ends and doesn't feel like a very different show from when it started, which it is doing now.
