One of the worst things about watching a drama serial after reading the entire story on paper is that you keep on comparing the drama with the novel – and then feel a tad bit annoyed that the well-rounded-off story seems to be taking one too many zig zags instead of focusing upon the main track and taking it towards a smoother conclusion.
Admittedly, I was eager to see this episode because of the entire wedding planner sequence – and interestingly, this was one scene (and its aftermath) that never showed up despite being in the preview last week. Most of the episode yesterday focused upon Meher asking forgiveness from Meesha and Granny – and then revealing the reality of that apology to Zainee. Rooman and Surraya aunty’s scenes are sickening to say the least – how much lower can the lady stoop? Frankly, I wanted to fast forward most of the scenes BUT the commendable thing with Aik Nayee Cinderella is that the scenes are short! So even if you feel a certain scene is torture, the torture is over pretty soon!
Okay, enough negativity! I can never say about an episode of Aik Nayee Cinderella is that it was a package of torture. Even if there were some fist-clenching moments, there were more than a few burst-out-laughing moments. Aimee entry into Shah Baba’s kingdom and the way she gobbles on the breakfast spread was excellently done! Warda Butt has portrayed Aimee to near-perfection!
More smile-silly moments came with Meher and Bano’s interaction – what an excellent chemistry the two women share! As Bano threw one sugar-coated insult after another to Meher, the latter returned them with equal grace. Their sequences were done amazingly well!
And Meesha! Her one silent confrontation with Rooman was mesmerizing! Her reaction at Rooman’s upcoming marriage, her bewilderment at Meher’s instructions and the way she was totally taken in by Meher’s 360-degree-u-turn attitude were conveyed by Maya Ali with all the right expressions. How interesting it is that Bano is being the typical mom in law – one can only hope it brings Meesha to her senses!
Overall, it was an interesting episode but again, not much happened! I am totally into this wedding planner sequence and cannot wait for next week!
