Hey guys sorry for the late response. Kept sleeping all day and return to forum and twitter and lagtha hai Duniya badal gayi, soch badal gaye wala feeling..I am having major FOMO now😂...I will keep this short coz I had too many points in mind and am sure I forgot about 80% of them🤧🤧 I did read almost all comments here and other posts in the Anupamaa forum and as much as everyone's opinions are valid, sensible and equally important, I still stand my ground on this! First things first~ whether we accept or not, there is some attachment still left for the show or rather Anuj Kapadia!! Our yelling and screaming and vowing to quit watching yet coming back every day with a little hope deep down is just a reflection of our disbelief to what they have done to the most iconic ML on itv🤕🤕. So nobody can tell me not to threaten to quit or stop watching. The makera and viewera relation is a funny and platonic one. When something goes right, there are no bigger cheerleaders than us so when something especiallu the story itself is going off the rail, there is nothing wrong in expressing frustration. I am after all a subscriber who has paid for HOTSTAR to watch this! Having said that we shud know to draw a line and not abuse any actor or creative involved!! The frustration must always be directed at characters and not the real flesh and bones behind them. I have read couple ppl here trying to force their opinion almost treading bullying. I will not take names but lets not do that. Whether its a show or a service or a product, expecting 8 billion to like it or think alike is stupidity. Lets make ppl here heard and welcomed! 🙏🙏ok gyaan katham😋
Some of the most common reasons I found viewers here defending Anuj and his actions and why I personally dont find them valid.
1. Butchering: we all had issues with it and most common defense I read..Anuj is not butchered compared to so and so ML...he is not as bad as so and so ML...honestly I dont care about other ML..I watch this show for AK and there is a reason he is the most iconic character on television. Let me put it in simple lang- 2 wrongs dont make a right. Comparing Anuj's charac to other leads and feeling good that he has not yet made it to that barometer is unfair. When you say butchering a charac, its about destroying the integrity and spine of that character. Butchering is not if Anuj suddenly turns a womanizer or abuser...its also butchering when Anuj kapadia makes irrational and illogical decisions!! In our own lives how many times have we taken over emotional decisions and regretted later? The point was never about Anuj signing away his empire to Mukku..he can hand it over to anyone he deems fit but leaving the same sis with a predator who is ready with his steak knife to slice into her the moment he turns away is what baffles me! He had once fired Kavya to protect Anu but here he leaves her with a man who can bring nothing but destruction wherever he goes! And he decided all this overnite!! We all unanimously wanted Anuj to never be Anupamaa 2 and when he becomes that we praise him and become all senti..this has nothing to do with Gaurav..I love him..hell we all love him!! This is why we are still fightinh to be heard dammit! My issues are with the writers and writers alone but they are not our faces. Their writing speaks through Anuj and Anupamaa so we can only praise, love, laugh cry and criticize these very characters.
Gyaan gyaan and some more gyaan: raise your hands of you think this entire week's episodes couldnt have been wrapped in 2 epis? The overdose of Anu's gyaan again and again with repeated dialogues made my mom hand me the remote and requested me to change. They must know when to give gyaan and when to stop. Otherwise there will be no value to it and anytime now she opens her mouth I will be like baaaahh!! 😑😑
As far as Vanika track is concerned I am pretty sure almost all fans detest it and want it scrapped which has happened so I appreciate that and by Vanika I mean any romantic angle!! 🤧🤧
Why cant we see this side off Anuj? He cannot be single toned..he needs to play different emotions and I absolutely agree!!but but we should also know the fans are more frustrated coz the show has been single toned by that logic. The game is fun we have 2 opponents fighting, winning, chasing the other. Here all we get to see is Anu and Anuj suffer and suffer and suffer. Vanraj never ever got his due...principal amount chodo, interest thak nahi chappa usme! Most of you are here post anuj's entry..if you guys are so frustrated imagine fans who are here since day 1 and not seeing Vanraj paying for his deeds😤😤😖😖
This pisses me off..I know this is their internal issue but it has ultimately affected the show so now it is MY BUSINESS to speak. Ppl here who think makers are professionals and we shud leave it to them. Frankly yes we dont have much of a choice. We have to leave it to them but they are anything but professionals or experts here..I will not go any further into this and lose my cool.
Loopholes/stigma: Mukku was scared of sitting in a car but she wasnt when Vanraj almost rammed Anu, adoption kids being made to look like a vessel of sacrifice and always having to live with gratitude only to show they havnt forgotten their roots and this society has done a favor to them by giving a new lease of life.WRONG on many levels!!!
Having Anuj transfer property coz Mukku asked whether he can leave Anu? Explain logic pls..
So indirectly now he has left property and he is okay with M working with Vanraj..agar nahi toh property choda kyun? Agar haan toh yeh sab drama hi kyun???
Baar baar the guilt trap of Anuj being responsible for all the mishaps that ruined her life. The boyfriend infact loved money more than Mukku- Anuj is guilty, Hus turns out an abuser- Anuj is guilty, Mukku asks him to leave Anu- Anuj is guilty..tmrw her nails chip- Anuj is guilty!! Unrealistic and awful character arcs!
Moreover the concept of sacrifice is highly romanticed in our country and that makes me sad. Whether its parents, siblings and spouses the more they sacrifice they better person they are!! I would have loved it if he decides to stay back and fight V his own style even if that meant Mukku rebelling and turning tides against him. He is great coz he is sacrificed..sorry not for me!! Coz he dint let go of his laal pari or his suit. He handed over a company that has many employees, projects and dreams of ppl and put all of them in jeopardy. And all this with a woman who found V trustworthy and above all a good businessman..a man who was fired, flopped a cafe and couldnt even win a presentation against Anupamaa's idea!! So Anuj's decision still stands senseless to ME!!🙌
The most consistent character is Vanraj's kameenapan!! Coz makers bahut aaram se iss character ko nihaara hai aur likha hai👏👏
Aur bhi hai but I will stop here😊 I promised a short post..sorry yaaron..aadat se majboor😁
Goodnight gals..and this is not pinpointing or offending anyone..infact all ur opinions saraankon par but after lot of thinking just to get a different perspective of situations in life, went to deep thinking...yeh sab mujhe suit nahi kartha during sickness🤧🤧
