Gardes, I agree with you 100%. While I am so happy that the truth is out, I'm extremely disappointed by the way the CVs/writers handled today's episode. RaDev's conversation was rushed and unrealistic. Over a year's worth of waiting for the big moment and this is how they chose to reveal the big moment? It would've been better if Dev had not believed Radhika's confession! I too was very, very disappointed that Avinash and Rubina were given such pathetic material to work with. These two are the best actors on television and capable of such excellent emoting and dialogue delivery. And as you said, their chemistry is out of this world! So how come we didn't get any fireworks? The first mistake of the writers was to just have this be a normal Monday episode and not a maha-episode. The other mistakes you have pointed out quite capablely. The answer to our question, of course, is that the CVs blind love for Vishaka has outdone their simple abiltiy to think rationally and reasonably. They just want to shut us up and make us stop hounding them with complaint letters by feeding us these small RaDev carrots and continuing to showcase Vishaka, their queen. It's so sickening. What need was there to have that wicked witch in practically every scene? What should've been a beautiful episode was ruined! 😡

Gardes, excellent post as always.

Not for nothing but i find myself less and less attached to this show now. i haven't been posting much either ever since Vish kanya's indecent proposal, constant dragging and the same old dialogues from everyone. I feel very drained, tired and bored of the same stuff. Vish kanya is officially the lead now, even today she was thrown in every possible scene??? WHY?? What the hell was the need for that? Couldn't they give one episode just to RaDev? These creatives are so lame and getting more and more insane by the day.

Last two days, even after the biggest secret of the show, the so called "trumph" card turned out to be such a lame duck. i never in a million years thought that they would do such a lousy job when the USP of the show is finally released. They did such a terrible job projecting the two of the most talented people in such a dull light. Even though the secret is out and RaDev's confrontation has already taken place, it is lacking that thunder, that chemistry, that anger and finally that passion that was present last year when Dev confronted Radhika about hiding herself from him. I am very very disappointed in CB these days and frankly i'm not too interested in it anymore or eager to watch it...just out of habit, i read the updates but i feel no excitement or enthusiasm as i once felt. It would be better if they ended it here on a lame but happy note rather than dragging it further...obviously they have no story to tell...well they do but these CVs don't have it in them to carry the show further with dignity. it's better they end it here.

I forgot to add:
I know we are not supposed to do comparison posts here but I cannot help myself.
Today I did something very rare. I watched every single show on Zee Tv starting with CB. I know we are behind in the US and thus my observation would be irrelevant to this thread, but nonetheless, here is what I noticed: every single show is much better than CB. Am I saying that the other actors and actresses on these shows are better than Avi and Rubi? No. Am I saying the other jodis on these shows have more chemistry than RaDev/Avina? No. Am I saying that the writing, direction, editing, and overall show packaging of the other shows is better than CB? YES!
Take a look at Lali and Archana. In today's US episodes both Ratan and Ankita were simply awesome...not because they are better actresses than Rubina, but because they have much, much better material to work with. Even Abha from YMGGK and Maithali and Bhanwari from DS, a relatively new show, have far better dialogues and material to work with. Same goes for the leading men of these other shows. They are not dumbed down like our poor Dev is. Not only that, but these other artistes and the jodis they are part of are given much more publicity by Zee TV than RaDev and Avina. That's why CB and Rubina never win any awards. Avi manages to win because he has a huge number of female fans. But poor Rubi always gets left out in the cold because she is never given anything strong and substantial to do on CB and nobody except her ardent fans notices her work like people notice Ratan and Ankita's. Last year at least Rubina had some good writing to work with, but this year has been a huge disappointment. Moreover, all the other shows on Zee move at a faster pace than CB and do not have so many holes and unresolved loose ends. Today's CB episode is just one in a long list of examples where the CVs screwed up bigtime. The truth revelation episode was their chance to mend the fences and bring back the charm and glory of CB. But they failed miserablely. I feel very badly for Avi and Rubi because this is not at all fair to them. I have nothing against Priyanka but I am really sick and tired of seeing Vishaka day after day. She had absolutely no right to be in today's episode, much less interupt RaDev's conversation! At this rate CB will not survive. If Zee's other shows are so imaginative and creative and give their leads a lot of good material to work with, plus Zee has a new line-up of shows, I don't think CB will make the cut unless they change their team of writers and do some serious making over.
I'm sorry if I hurt anyone's feelings, but I'm just sharing my opinion. I love Avinash and Rubina, but I'll be honest...I do not love CB anymore. Avina deserve much, much better than CB.

Nice post gardes...
I also felt that todays epiosde could of been better handled....The atmosphere should of been better like rain or tunder something more to make like its a big thing...I always had dreams about the truth coming out ...and the way I imagined it didnt even happen ...I was expecting Dev to be angry with Radika for couple of days ..But he understood her very quickly
I mean this is the day we were all waiting for ...And it wasnt what I expected...Like sandeepa said the truth should of been a Maha episode.....I was waiting for the truth to come out in a different way not just in 5 minutes ...Honestly I think they should of made the whole episode with RAdev confrontation ...They should of added more old flash backs...nd make it more juicier
The creative used there biggest weapon in 5 minutes .I mean we waited 1 whole year for the truth to come out and they resolved the problem so quickly ..I was expecting more from the creatives..they lost a perfect oppurtunity ................OH well......
But overall it wasnt the worst ..Atleast dev belives RAdika..Even there 5 minute conversation did touch my heart .....They did a nice job with the emotion ...But it would of been better with Rain and tunder ..strong wind...Etc...Just like the haridwar episode
Maybe tommorow amma will inevent smt good tha will problably make dev change his mind....
I dont know..Im just guessing 😕was all this RAdikas dream???

Yes, "The Truth" of the first marriage it out .. most (or should I say all) of us expected it to be electrifying like the haridwar episode .. but, that didn't happen !

I didn't expect much from the creatives ..the show lost its charm long back so, I had little hope from the creatives ..

Today when I read the post by devradhika4ever "The BEST episode ever" I was thrilled I was looking forward for the written updates.. then didn't find anything that was either touching or impressive .. i was kind of disappointed.

Came home watched the episode twice but, didn't feel a thing ..

We have been waiting for the truth to come out for so long that its now tasteless ..

If creatives would have shown us a electrifying episode ..some what like the haridwar one. I would have forgiven them for Vish ONS and would have written it off saying .. "Creativtes, its worth it!" I forgive you, you put us through hell last few weeks but .. cholo Maaf kiya..

The show lost it charm long back and we/I are just hanging on to this show with a hope that it will get better or until few days back that the truth will be out .

But, guess what .. the truth is .. its over!

The show does not have the karishma or jadu anymore and we should stop expecting anything from Creativtes .. because we are just going to be a disappointed ..over and over again!

No offense to anyone .. like I said before ..its a free country, free forum , free CB, creatives disappoint us for free and my opinion comes for free..

So, my friends .. the best thing to do today is logoff and go to bed. That's what I am going to do.

Have a good night !

Nice post Grades todays episode was a damper on our expectations they could have done the RaDev scene so beautifully and meaningfully it was just a eyewash kind of scene.Maybe they may do each scene bit by bit when one by one all the truth comes out when in the course of convincing babuji,PB family and the society.It appears as if they did it very quickly to put it on.Another thought is that they only refer to the back episodes of that particular month so they make such howlers in their facts like the terrace talk which never took place between Rad and Vish except in todays episode.
Makes me feel do the writers also have financial issues with the Zee and producers of the show that they taking revenge on the channel with this half hearted episodes.The caliber of the show is going from bad to worse and Avi and Rubis skills not made use of only Vish seems to be hogging the limelight everywhere.Did not read all posts but could see dissatisfaction in what I glanced through.

I agree with everyone who has addressed today's poor episode. Has the creative team left CB? I wonder if the financial woes are real.

Even the Goa episode when Dev finds out how Radhika had helped Vishaka and the pain and anguish he goes through had much more weight than what they showed today. Essentially in two sentences he forgave such a big lie.

I wish they had repeated some parts of last April's show when there is storm and Dev leaves Radhika, and Rads goes to find him and ultimately they meet. They could have stretched this part for a week and we would not minded. Instead they made a mockery of it all and now tomorrow we have to watch Amma and Vishaka again. I wish these two would go on a long summer vacation and we can bring back some of the creatives back like Damini Shetty and Khurana. We need better people writing the screenplay and deciding the story ideation.

Does any one have an in with the DJ creative team?

I only watch the show for Avinash and Rubina. The two actors have so much potential. I wish they are made the center stage of the show with better dialogues.

The revelation of truth was the TRUMP CARD and they made it into a lost bet.

Why creatives why would you do this?

Damini Shetty is now writing for 'Do Saheliyan'. That's what got me watching that show. Some concepts are a copy of CB (bride switching) but the writing is good.
Yeah, I feel pretty cheated out of a good episode. The main reason for them to rush through it was to give Vishaka and Amma more air time. In the US most of the time the episodes are edited so that there is less RaDev and more Vishamma. So what little RaDev is shown in the original India episodes gets fully diminished in the US, Canada, UK, etc. It's sick of Zee to do this. I wish CB would can the current writers at least and get better ones. The most painful thing is that Avi and Rubi's talents are being wasted on this show.

I agree with all of ur points, today it was surely a let down. Just as why3 said, even I was comparing the whole episode with the episode which pulled me in this show and I agree what terrible difference had come...
When the promo of Dev questioning and showing his anger to Radhika was shown, I got so excited and was thanking GOD, that wow another face-off which I was so desperately waiting for. I was impatiently checking my watch how much time was left when the advertisements were on, and was surprised that the clock was ticking away and there was no sign of the episode airing again and was shocked with the way it ended and that too at such a short moment, it hardly went for 2 or 3 minutes. I felt so cheated when they stopped the conversation.
Dev's start was very good but then it just bloated away. In fact, Radhika is such a good manipulator, she put the whole blame on DEV itself, that the way u did, even I did the same thing and he was quite. Yes, she voiced her fears, which kept her quiet, but y did not he question that ---- " She did not speak later on was explained , But Y did she bring in such position First off all ?? Y did u ever allow such adharm to take place ?? Y did she allow Visakha to sit in the doli and come in the very first place Even when she knew that she married Dev and Dev loves and was marrying thinking it to be her only?? " All these would have bought out more pains of Radhika which she had suffered and Dev would have understood her more... I felt that the conversation was so incomplete.
Even when he shouts at Visakha in the room, I was expecting some more of his anger to be vented on Visakha and he would point out some blatant facts to Visakha but was again disappointed when he immediately turned and in a very sweet voice caught hold of Radhika thru her shoulders lovingly and said lets go Radhika and walked out. I felt the thing to b so abrupt.
Even I agree today the conversation of Daadi, Vaishali , Vivek and Birju made sense today. Visakha uses words such as -- "This girl is good in making up stories, she is trying to fool u good ppl and others r shown to be so dumb that they simply can't put her down by a few words.
WHAT THE HECK !!!
I don't understand y the CV's are not extending the important points such as the RaDev conversation but wants to drag the irrelevant points such as ONS so much that, the viewers start throwing eggs and tomatoes at them. Y r the CV's so hell bent in ruining everything. If they don't wanna write for this serial, they can simply quit or if DJ's don't like CB, they can give it a logical twist and end it rather than show it in such an improper way.
