Fans' Tribute to CB: Add ur memories & notes here - Page 6

I would just like to say a BIG THANK YOU to all:

Among the six siblings in our family, my oldest brother
and I, were the only ones, who were not crazy about
Hindi Films or Dramas! One of my sister is crazy about
all the Hindi movies and dramas, she has autographs
and scrap books of most of the stars and we all teased
her for her addiction !

She knew I was the Romantic one in the family and only
Loved to Read... Everytime ai talked to her long distance,
she would insist I watch Choti Bahu... When I came to
visit her, she spent more time watching her dramas, so I
decided I would watch CB just to shut her up ! She had
taped CB and was watching it again from the part where
Dev discovered the bride was not his DG and was looking
for Birju, who had just come back with vishaka's picture,
it peaked my interest about the wrong bride, and here I am
today HOOKED to Choti Bahu, my ever first Hindi Drama!

Loved the concept of the show and above all, the DIVINE
LOVE STORY !

Avinash as Dev, did a wonderful job... very talented, and
his expression of Love & Devotion...WOW ! Every women's
DREAM MAN ! He had all the Ladies, girls... young & old,
swooning!

Rubina as Radhika, a simple, yet a Natural Beauty, inside
& out, was portrayed beautifully! For a first timer, great
acting ability... very talented till the end, as Imarti! A STAR
IS BORN!!!

Hopefully, some Bollywood Producer will see their potential
and they will be BOLLYWOOD STARS ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Also Love Rita Bahaduri, everyone's dream Grandmother,
Rajiv Verma, a loving foster father, Vaishali a devoted
mother and the rest of the cast and crew, who made CHOTI
BAHU possible for us, and had viewers from all over the
World Mesmerized ! THANK YOU ALL for your Hard Work and
Dedication.... May You ALL PROSPER in your Future Endeavours!
Love you ALL & will MISS you, but will NEVER FORGET YOU and
the Drama CHOTI BAHU.... The Best Ever JODI ! 🤗

when I started watching Cb- my first ever Indian soap, I did it to understand why people watched a show to make it number one- at that time (May 2009) there was an article about it being #1 in its time slot. So I watched a few episodes on youtube- it was during the vat savitri vrat and man, I was hooked! I went back to the raj prohit ceremony, then the Dev's dad's death episode and further back to the holi special and then to the special scenes where Dev goes searching for his Rads in the galis of Vrindavan. Then I finally went back to the wedding scenes and finally their first meeting- so to me, the sequence in which I watched this beautiful story was 'backwards"- it was a true discovery and a slow movement into a story that intrigued me more and more.
I do not know if I want to watch Avinash and Rubina together again if they are not radev. for me, radev is an eternal pair united in divine love. truly something that makes it a modern day "myth", a perfect fairytale that warms my heart even in the coldest of winter days.
All the cast were one of the best I had ever encountered- queenly Dadi, sincere Shastri ji, the evil amma, frustrated Mrinalini, Chachaji (I loved hat debonair rascal!), shadow of his father Arjun, the original sweet Arjun's wife, even the soft spoken Keshav, cute Nandu, flustered Vaishali, suffering Vivek, dev's devotee birju, sassy vishaka- each and every one of them.

I stopped watching the show before the burning track started and then watched the last few episodes after the mataramji track started. There was still possibilites left to explore wrt storyline and plot. sadly that was not to be. maybe a second radev jodi will come on screen just as they have the kitani mohabat hai one coming now season 2.

I started my journey with CB since march 2009...After that i hadn't missed even one episode ..THen i went back to old episodes watched in youtube....Even though they had shown many painful episodes.. STill i hooked this show because of Avinash nad Rubina....I loved all Radev scenes ...Though they were sad and happy and i loved the scenes of Shastriji and Radhika, Dev and Dadi,Radhika and Dadi,Briju,Dev and Radhika,Vaishali,Vivek and radhika.... .CB was a full package everything was there in CB like family,religion,romance ,Khana etc...I know CB became memory but it will remain in me forever ...They both were sad in their interviews due to abrupt ending of CB... .....I hope i can see Avi and RUbi in a new show very soon...

I wish AVINASH AND RUBINA all the success,wealth and health in their life....

We will miss the amaing RaDev jodi very much! Watching Choti Bahu has been really very fun. Thanks to Zee TV for put on this show. We will miss all CB Cast members very, truly much!

Sandeepa, what a lovely way to bid farewell to CB. My journey with CB started with a second or third episode. I was busy doing something in my living room and I heard these bitter words out of a woman's mouth in a very loud voice and yes, yes it was none other than that old hag Amma, yelling away at Radhika. The venom that was spitting out of this woman's mouth and Radhika just standing there listening to it all, silently, made me cringe a bit, but also made me curious about the story, so I sat and watched the episode. Dev was not even in the picture yet. Actually, I missed the episode of Radev's first encounter as I was not too into the show at the time, and was only watching it sporadically. Little by little, I became more and more enticed with the story of an orphan girl who was verbally abused by her grandmother and used by her sister. My first thought after seeing the main male lead, Dev, was "who the heck is this guy and why is he wearing this bright ugly color, grandpa like sweater vest." LOL😆 Dev did not impress me at all, I know it'll be hard for many people on the forum to believe this but I did not like Dev much in the beginning, but soon enough he became my Hero, oops Radhika's Hero 😉

The direction the story was headed, a divine love story, was just so intriguing, especially the love Dev felt in his heart for a girl who did not believe that she was worthy of any happiness, just had me'there was no looking back for me. I remember running home every evening to watch CB. I spent so many hours on this forum just reading and discussing CB. The old good days of CB...miss them so badly 😭

Now coming to the favorite RaDev moments, my all time favorite RaDev moment has to be their 2^nd wedding Haldi Ceremony, where Dev comes to see Radhika at night...oh my my!! Avi looked so drop dead handsome with his new haircut and Radhika was truly glowing with her wet hair, half tied back. Loved the way the whole scene was done, the dialogues, the music etc. Avi and Rubi did a wonderful job here'without a word, their eyes spoke volumes. You can just feel their love for each other. I just love this scene and still watch it over and over again.

There are so many other memorable RaDev moments'when Dev sees Radhika's reflection in the water during their Haridwar trip'I loved the way he demanded an answer from her for hiding herself. The way he cried and completely broke down, it was so heartbreaking yet so touching. Avi performed so beautifully here😛 the tears, the anguish and the betrayal he felt in his heart was just mind blowing. And of course the famous hug scene in the rain 😳

Also, RaDev's first wedding night together after their 2^nd marriage in the hospital'.Radhika felt so insecure about her burns and the way Dev felt her pain and explained to her how priceless she was to him. The way Dev did Radhika's sringar with the delicate flower jewelry. The next morning, very first time, Radhika touched Dev's lips and felt so rightfully his.

I thought RaDev's SR in the barn 😳(Abhay track) was the best compared to the other SRs shown.

There are many many more tender RaDev moments, which I will remember for a very long time. Too bad the dumb creatives and stupid Zee had to go and mess up a perfectly fine divine love story with their nauseating tracks. Hope they both pay dearly for ruining CB for no valid reason. I will never forgive them for showing the stupid burring track and then never showing any remorse or punishment for the devil Amma.

I m very much nostalgic as CB ended....i have just watched last episode ...now i remembered how i have started watching CB....it was the wedding ceremony when radhika got married with dev 1st time...i can't explain how divine and beautiful wedding ceremony it was....specially the song "tare hai barati".I was so touched and watched that episode several times...from that time i didn't missed a single episode of CB..but when that stupid stantanu track was going on ..i was really disapointed about the storyline...then mataram track...but recently radhika's real father and twin sister was introduced...show was becoming interesting,but heartless zee stopped the serial abruptly.....now i miss CB too much....there r few episodes were my favourites...1st was wedding may be it was 25th episode...after that 1st holi episode..episode when radhika sat for rajpurohit puja instead of vishakha....and most romantic and touching episode was when dev 1st realized that her dream grl is her fake wife's sister....episodes of 2009 april .....i have watched many serials....CB have the charm to touch our heart....i will miss rubina,avinash,dadi....shatriji,devkiji, birju....i m feeling empty...feeling like something is missing....wish to see rubina and avinash together in another show...they look cute together....wish them good luck..this is not the ending of them...they will go far....all CB fan have best wishes for them...

Here are my few posters of the cast of the Choti Bahu..

I will come later with the MataRamji and family
