What really annoys me is the fact that even today, the asian (rather indian) society still believes that a woman who can't save her marriage is to be disgraced, disrespected and excluded from society. What annoys me more is that Dr. Shashank, who himself had 2 love marriages, couldn't understand the feelings of the characters Armaan and Riddhima who loved each other immensely.
What worsens this, is that being a 21st century father of two young women, a leader or mentor of many patients, doctors and medical pursuers, Dr. Shashank still believes in "kalank or daag" on the virtue of a woman if she has been linked with men. He led himself and many others into accepting societal pressure and expected his daughter to follow his orders and give into society's expectations.
Dill Mill Gayye fell in my eyes especially when armaan left riddhima in that situation, sid thinking of marrying riddhima just like that despite him knowing riddhima may never be able to accept him, shashank expecting riddhima to be happy and accept the new relationship and especially the recent scene of when armaan clarifies his reasons for leaving riddhima. Such illogical and insensitive reasons and scenes really wasn't what i had expected. Such low-standards from such an over-rated team of "EFFORTFUL" workers who pay no heed to logic and characterisation is a disgrace to Indian Television and Cinema. I still don't understand why they had to make a mockery of the characters sid,armaan and riddhima who really created a niche for themselves in our lives. And what do they expect in return? TRPS and profits my foot!
In the name of AR and SR lovers, we all are just a group of cinematics who appreciate and give a chance to good cinema, and in return we expect just a little bit of sincerity and dedication which remains till the end, enough for atleast half an hour 5 days a week, is it that hard? I ask the makers, if this is what they call a love for profession, a sincere approach to life, to the entertainment industry and especially to thousands of cinematics who long for quality entertainment? Is it really that hard to work for money, to put in a bit of creativity, to gel with and bring out the best in your team or simply garner profits and hold a spot in the world of successful beings. Itni zyaada responsibility handle nahin kar sakte to uthaate kyon hai?
Sometimes i question myself on whether hindi tele cant be as diverse as aussie or american television. The answer is now very clear. The hindi television industry doesn't want to change. It wants to stick to profitable thinking and whatever trends are in, they change their work based on tht.The producers don't want to give new ideas a try as they fear that they will lose their money, and it wouldn't garner profits. Im so GLAD that the western world isn't like this where we get to see different genres of entertainment, based on different age groups and we also have something called FREE TV where profits are not taken into account as much.
No wonder star one wants to bring in concurrent trends. Profits, profits and profits. Im sick of it! No wonder YRF are failing to garner TRPS for their realistic, logical diverse forms of entertainment.
No offence intended to anyone! This is coming from the heart of an ardent cinematic who wants to express her opinion.
