I wouldn't consider a month to be in the "early stages" of any show! Really? How come? I fail to understand exactly how much of a storyline anyone can expect to see in a month--and that's not counting the two days a week on which it's not aired. Are we expected to wait and wait for someone to realize that the show is failing due to many factors that this article points out! No one has to wait and I don't think the show is failing. If it was then the channel will surely change it's time slot or cancel it already. Why is it that you guys are so determined to make everyone like the show despite its lack of many of the usual quality's we expect of a program at 9pm? We're not...at least I'm not determined to make you or anyone else like the show. If you don't like it, please stop being so mean to yourself and stop watching a show you can't stand. I insist. 😊 We are entitled to give constructive criticism much as the particular article above has done! Yes, and I thank you for all your constructive criticism. Really.

I have really given this show a chance! Why? And I really want to know. I have listened to all the topics and have really been objective and realistic with what to expect from it! But even when looking at shows that are not prime time DABH can not even measure up to them! That's your opinion and you're entitled to it.

When you have poorly thought-out scripts and actresses that cant manage the roles then what do you expect people to say? The actress can do better...the script is not the best...but poorly thought-out? I don't think so. Why should we lie about the show just because it somehow goes against what a few people think on here? Don't lie...it's not expected from you to lie or tell any truths...you're mistaken if you still think anyone wants you to say anything about this show. Its obvious that their are only a small group of people that don't want to look deeper than the male characters wonderful smile, which is debatable anyway! Of course it's debatable, it's a personal choice...but that's exactly why this shouldn't be a topic to debate. Or what a good husband he will make! People want to see good performances at 9pm after a hard day working or studying! There are so many channels...people have a choice to change channels and watch something else. Is StarPlus your only channel? Then I could see how this could be a problem and why you're forced to watch DABH. Do we really want to have to watch something that is not up to scratch when their are great writers and actresses just waiting for a chance to shine! No!

Its very unfair to be expected to not speak out about poor drama on Star Plus! No, please speak and tell StarPlus how they can make better shows. Write letters, send emails, call them up, or even head into their offices to get them to improve. This article is just restoring the balance! Huh?

why people are so restless??i dont understand it😕

i can say hundreds of reasons for liking the show... hundreds of reasons...and let me say the tv articles published by TOI are mostly false...so i don't care about what they wrote about the show...because i know how many ppl are watching this show...and loving the show...yes truth is the truth..and the truth is u know nothing about india and indian tv channels...so it will be better to keep quiet rather than talking irrelevant things which u don't even know..diya aur baathi hum...is an awesome story plot...which is really needed to indin society now-a-days...its clearly portrayong the present scenario in most of indian families...

yes i can't change the article...and i don't even want to..because its false...and the ppl who wrote the article might be bollywood reporters who write the reviews of movies..this is not a movie..everything cannot be shown oneday...

i can see only u all the time insulting this show...rest of the forum members are really loving the show...

who are u to criticise the show..when u know nothing about the reality situations...

Why do you find it so difficult to accept that many people don't rate the show as you would! Are we not entitled to our opinions as the millions of viewers that choose not to watch the show! The above are just your words ranting on and on about what you think, how respected magazines and journalists from that wrote the above review are you claim "talking irrelevant things"!

It seems to me that you have no justification as to why this show is so good yet you claim you have "hundreds of reasons" yes "hundreds of reasons" ! Well dear where are these hundreds and hundreds of reasons then? You cant even substantiate one good reason!

The writers of the article are intelligent and throughfull individuals that respect good work and are honest when its not! We have lots of people like that in the Uk and USA and we welcome all opponions! Peoples views count dear! Your wrong again dear! 😳

Well it looks like you have done your best to answer my very relevant points! At least you have had a go to answer them which shows some effort on your part! However here is your reply: 1. A month is more than enough time to outline a plot that's worth watching! This is verified by broadcasters internationally! 2. Just because you don't think the show is failing does not mean its not! Unless you have the godly ability of omnipresence! 3. Your consistent posts that go on and on about the same points that always seem to miss the obvious flaws in the show! 4. Thanks for the compliment and i always welcome constructive criticism! 5. I give the show a chance as I do believe things can change.. even very weak plots and direction! Why not give something a chance! How many chances does DABH need though? 6. Thanks for your permission for me to have an opinion! 7. Well if its not poorly thought out then what exactly is it! Threads are not followed correctly like the Terrorism attack that passed without any significance other than an excuse for a marriage! Surely they could have used that topic for more interesting purposes don't you think! 8. The point is many people on here do not face the truth that the show is failing! The article just points this out! 9. Well if you have a look on the topic list you will see two topics about the lead characters smile and what a good husband he would make! I'm just pointing out that surely their are other reasons to watch a show, or we could just put a set of while veneers in a glass and watch them for half an hour i suppose! Well that's the truth of the matter is it not? 10. Yes but their is only on 9pm slot and this show does not deserve it! 11. Agreed! 12. Well let people speak then without bashing them and ganging up on them! 13. My point is that their are two sides to a coin! 😳

Thanks for your post though! Why not join my Fan Club! Friends Now?😛

1. A month is more than enough time to outline a plot that's worth watching!Maybe, if the show was based on a short short-story or flash fiction. This is verified by broadcasters internationally! Who are these international broadcasters? 2. Just because you don't think the show is failing does not mean its not! Oh, it's not just because I don't think it's failing...it's not failing because the channel hasn't taken any action against it yet. Unless you have the godly ability of omnipresence! I don't, and can't think of how being omnipresent fits into any of this. 3. Your consistent posts that go on and on about the same points that always seem to miss the obvious flaws in the show! Shows will have some flaws...but maybe what you find to be a flaw isn't a flaw to others. 4. Thanks for the compliment (There was no compliment, I'm afraid you're mistaken 😕) and i always welcome constructive criticism! 5. I give the show a chance as I do believe things can change..even very weak plots and direction! Why not give something a chance! That's good. Keep an open mind and see what happens. How many chances does DABH need though? 0--from people who don't want to watch it. If someone does like something about it then 100 or more. 6. Thanks for your permission for me to have an opinion! 7. Well if its not poorly thought out then what exactly is it! It's good. Threads are not followed correctly like the Terrorism attack that passed without any significance other than an excuse for a marriage! The attack was what brought the wedding on. It killed her parents and changed everyone's lives. The attack happened so everything can fall in place to set up the wedding. Surely they could have used that topic for more interesting purposes don't you think! They didn't need to...that would just make things drag. The attack served it's purpose anyway. 8. The point is many people on here do not face the truth that the show is failing! The article just points this out! The article is giving inputs on what to do to make it better. It evens say that there's still hope for the shows to do what was expected of them. 9. Well if you have a look on the topic list you will see two topics about the lead characters smile and what a good husband he would make! So? I'm just pointing out that surely their are other reasons to watch a show, (yes there are and I consider many reasons when I watch a new show) or we could just put a set of while veneers in a glass and watch them for half an hour i suppose! You could if you want. Well that's the truth of the matter is it not? 10. Yes but their is only on 9pm slot and this show does not deserve it! That's your opinion. What does belong at this time? 11. Agreed! 12. Well let people speak then without bashing them and ganging up on them! Oh, the members are absolutely doing their best to speak their mind and let others do the same, too, without bashing the show, characters, and very importantly the forum members. Would you disagree? 13. My point is that their are two sides to a coin! 😳 Yes there are! Heads on one side and Tails on the other side. 😃

Thanks for your post though! No -- Thank you. Why not join my Fan Club! Do you have cookies over there? Friends Now?😛 Must you ask? When were we enemies? 😛

why are they writing sucha negative reviews..😭

everything or everyone is not perfect

it takes time..😊

please be nice to our DABH people (those who have written this article)😭

please..

I don't understand why people don't want others to have an opinion about DABH! What can anyone do if people want to say things like it needs a "total revamp" or that it s a let down on so many levels! 😳

Originally posted by: JustJ

Hmm. i agree DABH need little known faces... but i honestly wish they dont end up changing Leads as that would be really useless...

rest of the other two , well no idea as i dont watch them

Yes it looks like they will have to change some of the actors if they want things to change! Last nights show was so slow i fell asleep in the middle of it!
