No no I'm not saying it's the best show. I'm saying it could've been the best show😆
For me there are a few things that could've made it more realistic and enjoyable. Here's my list:
- Anupama not being the best in every damn thing😆
- Anupama not giving lectures all the time.
- Anupama being angry like normal human beings and actually having the guts to cut ties with toxic relationships. (Initially it's difficult, but there should be a day when you can actually say enough is enough)
- I wish Anuj wouldn't have been so perfect. I wouldn't mind an imperfect man with his perfect love. A grey space in his character would've been lovely.
- Characters in the show could've been grey, not outright dark in one moment and extra positive in another
- Vanraj and Anu's bond could've been handled more carefully. They behave extra angry one moment and extra close in another(it relates to my previous point😆) they could be on talking terms but needn't be invasive🤔
- Anupama going to therapy and learning to create a joyous life for herself.
- Anupama not behaving like a know it all and actually learning slowly, stumbling down and getting back up. Sometimes feeling low because she couldn't get something right, sometimes feeling elated for learning something new.
- They could've shown Leela changing at one point and remaining that way, instead of going back and forth. Or even better, they could show Anupama finally understanding that Leela is incorrigible and that she's just a waste of her time and emotions. (Lisa Nichols says that she was ready to love a few people from a distance. Anupama need not hate Leela, but she can maintain distance instead of her "meri maa thi, meri maa hain, aur meri maa rahengi"🤪
- People having lives😆 (i mean separate from loving or hating Anupama😆)
- Anupama making progress separate from Anuj, Anuj could've guided her being the businessman that he is, but Anupama having her own professional journey❤️
- Anuj not being in love with Anupama for last 26 years. Meeting her for the first time and falling in love with her as he sees her personality and constant growth. He starts by getting impressed then, respecting her as an individual and then falling for her. This could've been such a journey❤️
- Anupama behaving like a self-respecting mother to her kids, not being the doormat and actually slapping them when she needs to.
You guys can add to the list too❤️
