D3 has been a beautiful experience for me. As a viewer I have loved the show; I started watching it from the very beginning and have enjoyed the progress of the show.
I have been reading a lot on Shakti's departure from D3. As a viewer we get very attached to a show. We spend 30 minutes watching it and a lot more time thinking about it. So anything to do with the show is bound to affect us. But one thing we need to realize is that life is never perfect. We have to go with the flow. I have loved Shakti & Kunwar from DID days, and would really love it if they continued acting together. But if its not meant to happen then it wont. We as a viewer need to understand that. We need to accept change, and just go with the flow. Life is uncertain and even though its our life we can never get it to go as per our wish. Its the same way with D3. Everyone has to let go of people, go through beak ups, experience deaths, see friends move away. But then at the end of the day, we still live to experience a new day.
Honestly I would hate it if the show got a new girl as Kriya. No matter how hard the new girl tried, there would always be comparisons to the old Kriya, and nothing the new girl did would be good enough. So why go through all the trouble. Let the show move ahead without Kriya. They can give us lots of Rey's dance, his friends will come to know about Rey and Kriya being a couple. There are so many new topics they could show, and they can eventually introduce a new girl. We as a viewer can't be hypocrites. If we have a right to fall in love again after a break up then Rey should fall in love too.
Lastly we should stop clinging to our comfort zone. Let Shakti go and lets wait for Palki and the gang to give us a better and improved show with a lot more Dosti and Dance, and lets give a break to Dil for the time being.
