@Janaki-i agree with what you said-i think somehow the Mohit Mouni chemistry and the enigma and mystery of the Shiva and Sati story somehow managed to distract a certain section of the audiences from the diversions in the story lines...once the whole love story was gone everyone realized-hey its a mythošŸ˜†...
but i still find the increased crankiness annoying cos you have to admit the Cvs DRAGGED the Sati track-in comparison to that Parvatis story has been crisper with lesser stretching...
as you said maybe since we knew almost the entire Shiva Parvati story,any change or diversion or creativity is disappointing because maybe somewhere at the back of our heads we have already pictured it-and maybe if the scene when shown in the show isnt upto Mark we get disappointed...
but never the less i still find it strange that considering Satis track was made filmy and over dramatized(very entertaining no doubt),its only this phase of the show thats getting the brickbats

As every said above, me too think the same. As shiv-sati story was unknown to many like me we took the way they showed. I liked the lovestory but disliked the intimate scenes being shown in the story as i was knowing it is a mytho show but now as we knw the shiv-parvati story we cant tolerate much creative things in it.

I hv nothing more 2 say.I agree wid all of u,bcoz of Mohit-Mouni chemistry and less info abt Sati's life,ppl loved and enjoyed dat phase.Ofcourse dere were complaints abt fictional characters like Satbhish and Vijaya and Sati being shown as 'human'(i will never forgive da cvs for butchering sati's character during da end😔),but still ppl enjoyed da track.But one thing i must say,trps of da show were less at dat time.Mostly dey were below 1.0.Da trps of da show hv risen only after Sati track got over and Parvati track started.Even before Mouni fans start bashing me 4 dis,šŸ˜†i must tell u guys dat dis is nothing 2 do wid actors.Dis is bcoz as everybody knew Shiv-Parvati story so dey wanted 2 witness all dat onscreen.For eg.,everybody knows da story of Ramayan and Mahabharat but ppl still watch dese serials bcoz dey want 2 see what dey know.😊Ppl started watchinig dkdm after parvati track bcoz dey want 2 see da story of shiv-parvati which dey know.But when dey see something different or things which dey don't know or things which r fictional,dey start criticising which is absolutely normal.We criticise bcoz we know such things did not happen.Da makers r also helpless yaar.dey hv 2 add some masalas 2 attract viewers.As it is,most of da ppl find mythos boring.If dey don't add masalas,den ppl won't watch dis show.8pm is a very competitive slot so dey hv 2 add little bit filmy ideas and fictional characters.Dey don't watch da show's trps 2 go down.Dey hv 2 sustain da trps.

I think its coz honeymoon period of the show is over and people r viewing the show with more critical eye. Its a coincidence that it was sati episode then. But there were members who were critical of the faults even then and now.

@taani-good to see you back!!!-i guess your busy with JDJ...😊
some people were always critical of the show,and i admire them, because making criticism that too good sensible ones is Hard!
but im finding that others who used to gulp even the craziest tracks in the Sati phase are now finding some of the stuff in the Parvati phase odd...for that matter even unacceptable!šŸ˜•
when in terms of story telling they are almost at the same level!
but as you said the "honeymoon phase" got over,hence all the habaloo on certain tracks!

Regarding the romatic angle, the romance lovers are replaced by new lot, I feel the previous ones were much better. It gets irritating at times seeing how the story is viewed too & taken as an ooh, aah instead of respecting it as a Mytho. It's a fact that TRP is doubled after it's shown Shivji's story, which is a proof their added masala is also viewed. If they stick to the Purana's story with atleast 25% variation, it's a pretty good show. More then that becomes intolerabe, then the CNAT is a pace to run to retain sanity.

yes we have become intolerable...and please blame the CV's for it...cause they are shoving the crap down our throat... during the Sati phase we could stand the so called Creativity...cause that story was unknown for us...but the shiv parvati story is known by us...we learned it due reading, telling, hearing, watching telly/dvd...we are grown up with those stories...for us those are FACTs and these CV's are playing with our knowledge...and that is insulting...
what is shown now would be accept by us in the 1990 but in today's world where we can confirm information by googling it...we wont accept...

Long time ago, during the track when devi sati was alive, i had asked this question about who is madnike in the discussion about lord shiva thread and i got very wierd answer. because nowhere have i about this character. so for a long time i have been noticing a lot of "bloopers" the cvs have added to spice up the story otherwise they would feel audience will get bored and show ka hojaiga "pack up". and even i was wondering whether tarkasur ever have 3-4 children i never heard about. and whether devi parvati had any grandma. and there was some topic about kamdev's rebirth, about that i had that question ever since lord shiva brought him back to life but i didnt want to post it here. and also about how devi sati breaking her promise to lord shiva when she was testing lord ram i was questioning about the idea as well whether devi sati existed during the time lord ram and laxman were searching for devi sita

@present the show has around 30 to 40% deviation...till now more or less in the Parvati phase they kept the story intact-about the Vrats etc thank goodness they didnt mess up with that!
but killing Nandi is very weird...i dont think they should have done it...
i guess everyone pretty much has the same viewpoint that since we know the stories so well,and as shali pointed out that even if we dont know the story we can Google it and find out!!!-hence maybe we are a bit more perked up!
but i still find it inconsistent among certian sections of the audiences!
i know the mistakes exists even today-and i think that at least the post marriage phase of Mahadev and Parvati should ideally have lesser drama...
the only silver lining in the clouds at present is atleast they havent messed up the representation of Parvati as they did for Sati
Satis character was butchered,the Ram track was not required at all,not to forget the weird time travel concept,and Satis constant "tentrum throwing" and crying,except in her last scsne in the show Sati wasnt shown to be Goddess like at all!
and as Meenaxi said whenever the Cvs have put forth a MYTHOLOGICAL concept over Masala-the show has done well,and right now the show is doing well cos some of the stories they are showing are as per the puranas,the rest are well...dont ask!šŸ˜†

@Meena-that story of Ram being tested by Sati has been put in the Shiva purana however its not authentic,it was a cooked up version made years later...and ya Takis sons did exist-they created Tripura,it comes much much later in the story line but its an important part of the Shiva story!
