<font color="#000066">Just 1 news had got all of you in such a mess. This was the UNITY. Groups are divided from the already formed groups. And the amusing part is... old rules are no longer applicable .. as some of the AR fans are nowreverted to KASH fans and so, supporting SR indirectly. And those who are AR fans but supporting Shilpa are now friends with some of the SR fans (Shilpa fans). So, the AR vs SR rules are down the gutters. CV's have some grudges with the mods of the forum. 😆. We'll be seeing some new rules added in the already overflowing rulebook soon. </font>

<strong><font color="#000066">The day KSG left the show... everyone startedchanting "I Quit". Which never hpnd when any Female lead left. They were just crying to bring them (females)back.</font>
<font color="#000066"></font>
<font color="#000066">When KSG came back.. all of them were back to the forum saying "I came back coz of KSG" (There were actually threads and Polls on this topic). Then everyone started with AR forever ...... the reason was still KSG.. though they never accepted it.</font>
<font color="#000066"></font>
<font color="#000066">Today if Jenny says some words against KSG, all the members wont think twice or to cross check the news before cursing her ... Such is their love for her ... coz as I said.. Its just KSG who matters. The female lead is always good just coz she is with KSG. Otherwise she can go to hell according to you all. Otherwise I cannot accept that ppl actually made and LIKED n LOVED the thread which said "Riddhima should Die" (The topic is still OPEN for you all to comment.. whereas Fun Topics just saying how Armaan should die were in a comic way were thrashed and locked.. some member actuallywrote that the TM should die🤢). </font>
<font color="#000066"></font>
<font color="#000066"><font color="#000000" size="3">All of them who "Moved on" .. I have few questions for you</font>-- <font color="#9900ff">How is that you decided to move on NOW, even b4 Shilpa made her entry? </font><font color="#ff00ff">Why cannot you ever think of it b4 when Sid n Riddhima were happily married?</font> <font color="#9900ff">Why you all used to preach n teach about "True Love" and "Eternal Soulmates" n all crap earlier and you all forgot all that NOW?</font> <font color="#ff00ff">Why dint you ever realised that these characters are fictional and that its JUST a show and now suddenly you realised it?</font> <font color="#9900ff">Why suddenly your 3 years of Hard Work are of no importance?</font> <font color="#ff00ff">Why those petitions you all spammed are of no importance?</font> <font color="#9900ff">Why are you supporting and Liking those whom you used to hate b4?</font> <font color="#ff00ff">Why are you guys now explaining to those whose Abusive Posts were LIKED by you? </font></font><font color="#9900ff">Why are you guys IN for some Freshness when you never liked members talking about Freshness in the story b4?</font>
<font color="#000066"></font>
<font color="#000066">I would have accepted this change if you all would have realised it after 5-10 episodes. But such realisation only proves that "AR Forever" was just to WIN the battle against SR fans. Also it proves that you all just need Armaan to romance with any girl. Till the time he's happy and romancing, you guys are happy.</font>
<font color="#000066"></font>
<font color="#000066">Now, I actually wanna know the reason behind this sudden CHANGE. Coz I've observed one thing on this forum.. which is... AR fans are Big fans of Amitabh Bachchan's characterfrom Mohabbatein. "Parivartan nahi Pasand". So, how come they're welcoming the CHANGE now? </font>
Not sure if I'm in teh group you're targeting, but I'm gonna take a shot at answering some of your Qs:
1) I still haven't, but from the posts I've seen, I'm guessing most have done so because NOW, not one, but both the people of the fav jodi are to be paired up with sig fig others. So ... with one, the odds were still there. With two of them being paired up against other sig figs, the chances are pretty slim. It's like having hope till the last minute - some give up right at the 11th hour, while others dwindle till they get there. Some die hards ones keep at it. As for Shilpa's entry - I'm sure there are those who want to see her with KSG, so they wanted AR coz they liked the old pair, but if seeing Shilpa means R is with S, then they'll go for it. I'm just guessing at the chain of thoughts tehre as I'm not part of that group. Sure, I'd love to see Shilpa with KSG again, but in another show possibly.
2) Because they weren't "happily" married. I tried to be neutral, even though I'm an AR fan. Sure, they showed Ridzi falling for Sid before Armaan came, and then they showed her confusion. BUT then they showed her flip flopping. You can't deny that they showed her as a pretty fickle character for a short while. Then it was - I'm angry at both of you phase. Then it was - none of you are worth my time phase. So .. essentially, she definitely didn't REALLY make up her mind till very recently. THEN, I'm guessing it was the again the die hard fans who kept hope. Is there anything wrong with hoping? I, for one, thought that they may go the KHNH route, but with a twist in that Ridzi might start to respect A more and maybe get back with him. You can't blame a man/woman for hoping now ... I dunno about others, but given that Sid/Ridz are married, I'm not hoping for anything physical, but I do see that the CVs kept showing Armaan/Ridzi eye locks, them thinking about each other (sure A more than R, but they showed her doing it too), and then the scene yesterday. Honestly, the CVs WANTED us to keep hoping, coz as I've said before, they want to keep the door open so they can swing any which way they want based on what suits them.
3) Has anyone really forgotten it? I just read a post by someone (can't remember names, I think it was bheegi, or maybe it was Hannah) who put it pretty beautifully - she's trying to move on, really is. And she states it pretty clearly that it's just fiction - but fiction that touched her so much that she can't help but hope for a happy ending. It's like your favorite story - you want it to end happily, don't you? From the posts I've read, it didn't seem like many have forgotten it. There's one called "Oye Basket, Bye Basket", pretty well written and if you read the comments, many seem to agree that it's a love not easily forgotten.
4) Same as 3 for the most part. Remember though - MANY are letting go coz they've been fighting and fighting and fighting, and we're getting no where. There comes a time when you JUST give up. I know when I heard SA's news, I was thinking - "Oh lord, I just give up expecting AR to happen NOW. No way are they gonna unite 'em now." So does that make me someone who now gave up on "True Love" and "Eternal Soulmantes" bit or someone who suddenly realized that they're fictional? No. I've always known they're fictional. And also, fiction DOES NOT define true love, contrary to popular belief. BUT, it's a very historical and unique depiction of a very entertaining love story, where the basis is the same old ghissi pitti story line, but the presentation was phenomenal. Not to mention the acting. I realize you're not a KSG fan, but his acting, and SAs, were what got the public hooked on AR. So - fiction this is, yes. I'm sure everyone (or atleast most) realize it. BUT, we all turn to fiction (or atleast I do) for some measure of entertainment. And for me, entertainment, given that it's only 5 or so minutes (I youtube it) a day, better be happy, not sad.
5) Don't say that - of course it's of importance. It's very important - to US (or rather who worked hard, I shouldn't count myself as I just read and commented on posts. There are ppl who actually went on teh sets I believe). But ppl are disheartened coz they didn't get any fruits for their labor. I'm a lawyer and I can assure you that when a case, of any kind (not necessarily in court) where you've put in too much hard work, starts going down, you go through two contrary feelings very quickly - Hope against hope, and a numb kinda shock where you subconsciously start preparing yourself for the worst. I feel this is the case where folks who wanted to prepare themselves for the worst threw in the towel and said all our hard work has gone down the drain. And those who're hoping against hope - well you see the petitions and all.
6) Same as 5
7) Not in that category so can't answer - not sure I even understand that one. Taking a stab at it - I'm guessing you're talking about ARians who hated Srians and are now hoping for SR so Shilpa can be paired up with KSG???? Well I think the answer's right there ... SO Shilpa can be paired with KSG ... See some cared for AR, but wanted KaSh more than AR. Some cared for AR, but didn't care WHO played AR. I'm of the latter group (although if they ever got Rakhi Sawant to play AR I'd cry out of sheer pain at the insult to Ridzi's character). But, why my friend, does it matter so much? Some care for AR more, some for KaSh more, some for KaSu more, and some for KaJen? Some can't decided as it's ALL FICTION ... so at the risk of sounding like your mommy (sorry for that), what's the big deal?
8) No clue what you're talking about - I'm guessing someone, say X, got nasty. X was an AR fan, so Z supported X. Now X is a KaSh fan and Z is trying to reason with X??? If so, again, the switching of the sides - what's the big deal? The nastiness and blind supporting - a very 'buddy system' trait I hate. That's all I can say about that. I have seen it on this forum quite a bit - but sweetheart - that's how the world turns. In the corporate world, in the political world, in a place as small as a family, that's how the world turns. I'm not defending it, not by any means. It's wrong no matter which way you slice it. It's also in teh air we breathe. Any country, any religion, any sect, any race, any family - that's how everyone functions - the buddy system. If my buddy does something wrong, I'll close my eyes. As my grand father used to say - why have such eyes then, take 'em out. Then atleast you'll have reason to say "I didn't see it". So, I ask again - what's the big deal that you see IT on this forum? You'll see it every where in teh world soon enough. Prepare yourself. Oh, and stay away from those who exhibit such behavior. As my older sister would say "moon kyon lagti ho"?
One point I would like to make - I saw that behavior from ALL groups whether they be AR, SR, KaSh, KaJen, KaSu. BUT, I also saw very fair folks in each group even though they favored one particular group. So fikar not.
9) OK, that one I hven't seen yet. It's funny, I was gonna put up a post on "freshness". I feel (and this would a verrrrry long one so I won't get into this topic) that the idea of "freshness" was an excuse used by CVs and a smoke screen by teh actors. Let me give you food for thought - If SA comes and STILL there's an uproar about AR and it continues to maintain, if not gain, momentum, the CVs will forget ALL about the "fresh" jodi of SR and give us AR again. Somehow. If SA had entered as Ridzi, the "freshness" would have been soon forgotten by the CVs, along with their shpeal about "true indian values" and they would have paired SA with KSG.
In the end, this is a business and the CVs care about ratings. Since SR had gained momentum, they stuck with it, NOT because their fans outnumbered AR, but because ALONG with having a large fan following, SR was said and done, and they would have had to use, or over use, their "creative" minds to come up with a story that would please ALL fans. They tried, hence the triangle drama for a while, but came up blank. In comes SA.
One thing I did want to add on my own - you mentioned something along the lines of the faithfulness being there for KSG/Armaan, but not for RIdzi as much - please keep in mind that Ridzi changed 3 times. So the character Ridzi lost fans when Sukiriti entered, then again when Jennifer entered. So Ridzi's fans are split in 3, and then even more so in teh AR/SR camp. I can say for sure, if SA had stayed with us all this time and was the ONLY ridzi, then had they she left or tried to leave after 3 years, we'd have seen the same reactions. In one of his interviews I think KSG said (I dunno how old or new it was) that it was very surprising that Shilpa still had so many fans and he was still getting messages for her and KaSh even though she left 2 years ago.
All in all, I dunno if I answered your questions like you wanted (seemed like you were gearin' for some good old tussle). For me it's fiction, sure, but I take time out from my every day schedule fo work, family, kids, cleaning, cooking, laundry to watch a lil bit of drama before I go to bed. And when I do that, I wanna see something like a sitcom. Everynow and then I want to watch a happy ending, sappy, unrealistic-yet-relating-to-our-emotions love story. That's how I got into this show. And then it got all drama-ish on me. Still carried on coz I figured it would have a happy ending. So NOW, I want to see the happy ending. It's as simple as that. And I'm guessing MOST AR fans are in the same boat, albeit with different reasons for watching it.
And SRians are probably in teh same boat. Many started watching it with the entry of Wahi. And many have therefore seen the jodi of Wahi and Jenny for the first time and hence support it. That's THEIR happy ending. And I respect that.
