Where do I begin?
Dania is still playing “A Fool in Love”, Bunty is having pangs of heartache (more like heartburn, if you ask me!), Beenish can’t act to save her life, and Zain looks good even in a hospital (some people have all the luck, shucks!)
What can only be described as an exercise in patience (yes, our patience!) Bunty I Love You continues to make me wonder how quickly a story can go all (fifty!) shades of wrong in a matter of a few episodes. I was (confession time!) on the BILU bandwagon when it first started, I loved Saba Qamar’s character, I liked the originality of the story, I was even willing to look past some dreadful fashion choices (yes, mango vest, orange nighty, and white scrunchie, take a bow!) only to be bombarded with this.
Is it a mid-life crises? Perhaps, it is at Episode 15 because the story doesn’t seem to elicit much response from other than a simple meh. Take note, khawateen and hazrat, that “meh” is quite the commodity these days (but I won’t go there).
Let me quickly round up the meh-inducing bits from this episode.
First up, Dania and that dining table (whatever happened to the staircase?), both of whom are stuck at “tumhe mohabbat ho gaye hai na”. Here’s a word of advice Ms. Patel – he’s not into you. Get over it. Go find yourself a boy toy who’ll stay aka Bunty’s Sufi brother (although I’m sure your nineteen year self isn’t into the hirsute and grizzly).
Speaking of grizzly I hope babaji has something else in store because those seven days are up, which means someone’s coming to a grizzly end. Any guesses? Is it Babaji – hunted down by Dania and her pack of not-so-wild dogs? Maybe Qutub – he’s the one who led her there? You think Bunty – a sense of divine justice? Hmmm… choices, choices. How about all? At least this way we’ll end the series on a high note.
What high note you ask? In search of mohabbat, peeps!
That ever elusive thing called love has once again escaped our damsel in distress, Beenish. Good thing she realised what she was signing up for. Bunty’s greed came out for all to see, Beenish included. And what do you know the small time mobile chore has a heart.
GIVE ME A BREAK!
I would love to go on but I just can’t. Till next week.
(Not so) Happy reading.
