Ever since post leap drama started, viewers are only being spoonfed with a limitless level of idiotic track in EDK2. The buildup from the split was anyways somewhat boring to watch despite MK's acting skills which were great & okay to watch. Suman's characterization has gone down the drain so no expectations from that. Post leap so many awful tracks have appeared

-Suman and Kanchan in flip mode EVERYDAY, KK's unconvincing emoting methods of Suman (can't blame exactly because writers are spoonfeding her with whatever is being provided to continue the redundancy trend in the show) + SUMO COC dictionary, useless vaqeel and wedding designer getting more than necessary footage hence who the heck is the actual lead of the show (no offense to the actors but its just the hardcore truth) especially since sophie is keen on doing overacting ki dukaan and all, shaadi mein dulha and dulhaan go MIA and we're just getting snippets of rituals, etc, now shravan's character is going into new layer of flip mode


Only good character remains is Bunty but I wouldn't be surprised if they caricature his character by making him supportive of Suvan as they did with Kanchan (even though was somewhat wary of her preleap anyways).


Sorry to vent out the god damn frustration but, even though I'm not watching the show as I'm only reading the WUs or the highlights but its just a clear picture and the writers just seem too dumb to realize their own blunders and making a kachumbar out of this plot now.


Now, I feel sony made a better decision to shift the show online whether it gets trp or not because when there is nothing left in the plot from the start post leap then whats the point on being so keen to continue the show? (I know I will have some agreeing or disagreeing on this part but sorry this is just my opinion as of now). Might as well just either show something tolerable or windup the show at this point because whether the trend of misleading precap is true or not, clearly writers are keen on building up a whole new plethora of MU.


I never expected an army track anyways from the show because their bond was the crux of the story from the start and now it has been spoiled rotten to the core. Sorry for the harsh words but it is just the truth.


In conclusion, it just boils my blood to see story in such a mess that was left preleap.

If there was nothing left in the show (which I don't know why), they should have end it instead of torchering us. I watch it everyday with an expectation, but it's same mediocrity everyday. Suman's characterization has gone out of understanding for a sane man because she keeps on flipping everyday. Now cvs are after shravan who only talks sanki n paagalpan kind of dialogues, but in action he act saintly and sweetly. Kk hardly emotes and sophie's duck voice gets under my skin. This show doesn't belong to suvan, because sophie and Vikram are the new lead.

The thing is I have started watching the show again in YT because I haven't seen many episodes. So for me it is still the exploration of new show because at the end of the day it has started this year in feb. So it doesn't feel updated. When I watch earlier episodes, I feel so elated and my interest peaks so I end up watching web version which again spoils the mood. It feels I am watching some other show.

The way it is moving, it will end in Dec with some rushed plot. I used to think as there is no time-slot, that's why it shifted to web. But now I am thinking that some major locha has happened behind the scenes which has drastically effected the quality of this show. I am feeling bad for MK and KK as it is their first show.

i agree...i also tend to revisit some of the older episodes esp before the split ...suman wasnt this hardcore as she is being shown now esp with the stupidity of dragging the courtcase...even shravan se b im feeling detachment from the moment suman indirectly manipulated him & beena in the dinner table...so i dont know how to verbalize the feelings i get when i watch the preleap episodes & their fights, relationship development, MK's emotional way of emoting and even KK was much better as i did see some potential despite few misses...now its all just game on mode whether its irritating one, making one jealousy, move on games, etc...pouring scorn out of the blue w/o a meaning...🤢

its better to close it now if there is no plot line 😔such a disorganized plot...nowadays just seems like writers are BB & characters are the contestants of the show to play stupid games...audience karegi TRP ke through vote ...dunno what the heck is there to even watch...shaadi filler attempt to spice up the blandness...bringing in avni now when she couldve connected with shravan in the duration of 7 years like didn't cell phones exist? even though their bond is amazing in preleap with the bro-sis banters, i just laugh at the logistics of bringing her in post 7-8 years...

For me this show's USP was it's carefree tone with characters who were HAPPY for a change (rare in ITV). Now it's all MOROSE with gratuitous angst (don't get me wrong, I LIKE angst when it's done well).


I don't understand why they rushed the last 1 month of epis pre-leap to get to post-leap when they clearly haven't planned the post-leap story properly? 😕 It would have been better if Suman's realisation and confession wasn't rushed and we got more epis of them as a couple before her dad died.


Sigh. What's done is done. I was even holding out hope that Suman would face at least some CONSEQUENCES for her actions but now I realise that she is probably gonna be white-washed and Sharavan will be brought down to her level to justify the title of this show.😆

Yeah, that is one of the prime reasons, the straight-up dialogue usage & the teenage phase which was more relatable versus what we are trying to cognize now. Even I don't mind angsty scenes, but there needs to be reason for the developed angst. From Shravan's side, it is understandable despite a few hits/misses but with Suman, the writers are making her characterization go in different directions & it's just hard to see the contrast in Suman in teen phase versus what she has become now post leap. Particularly, her journal writing scenes are unrealistic because I don't get what she's really trying to convey. Pre-leap, she used to draw pictures which were understandable such as her relationship with Vijay & Shravan. Post leap, I cannot relate to those scenes + whole gum chewing thing to control her emotions.

Yes, the rush factor was a bit off but at least they were able to deliver the scenes more better. Suman's realization phase was shortened in comparison to Shravan's side & I really was upset about it too but still the connect was there even if it was rushed. The relationship was shown in 10 episodes or something but Suman was still more tolerable before and after the relationship but post breakup, it's just her mind being stuck as a 17 year old in a 25 year old person. I don't know what problem writers had for the past 2-3 weeks in bringing Suman's redemption track as opposed to her still not believing the truth when two courts already proved Devraj's innocence.

The whole emotional manipulation thing, especially from a FL's side, that just cringes my head. Then they make Shravan from sanki/pagalpan mode to sudden "unable to hurt her" mode which is also somewhat beyond my understanding because he continues to feel dejected about this. TBH, the characters are beyond my understanding and CVs are misusing "communication" properly especially Suman's sudden unpredictable mood swings.

It's funny that they were both more mature and level-headed as teenagers than as adults (especially Suman).😆Exactly, Suman's daily flips are making her (already hollow) post-leap characterisation worse. Don't get me started on the chewing gum thing.😳

I agree that the connect was there in spite of the rushed realisation. My main gripe is that they shouldn't have rushed it if they had nothing good planned to show post-leap. It might have been a channel decision though, who knows.😕 Before someone comes and says I have a problem with flawed female characters, let me just say my issue with Suman is not that she has flaws. It's that the story is shaping in such a way that her errors (and they are not MINOR errors) are not being acknowledged or are being undermined by her daily flips. Flawed characters are only worth watching if they have a good redemption arc or if they face the consequences for their actions. They squandered Suman's redemption track for the lame ex quadrilateral jealousy track.😆

Suman is a ping-pong ball, I just shake my head every time she or Kancha come on screen. Shravan's characterisation was better post-leap, but even he is starting to flip based on writers' whims. Jealousy games and mood swings is not angst, but I don't think the writers are capable of understanding that. If you ask me, they should scrap Sophie and Vikram and bring back some of the pre-leap characters like Devika or Anish. They were more tolerable at least.

+1 This has been the core issue. Her erratic behavior overtakes her ability to cognize her actions. I also like characters with flaws but over-flawing the character + having no emotional connect + repeat of behavior is the prime concern for her characterization till now.

I don't know what was the exact purpose to bring in love geometry post leap because they all seem to clueless to even label their "RESPECTIVE" relationship irrespective of what the other person thinks.😕😆 First of all, there was no clarity on the type of relationship Suman & Vikram share; complicated, present, client-lawyer? what? So many words to describe just one simple relationship these two shared? To worse it all, random tracks are being thrown in the air wherein there was no development in Suman's characterization; rather, writers took a U-turn to make her look like she's had actions that resemble to those of a villain in the story.

Yeah, preleap characters were tolerable. Writers just don't seem to realize this & to suddenly change Suman now as opposed to after Oct 15 episode, it is just sad to this sort of characterization displayed. Even for Shravan, his behavior is weird because he also feels dejected every time Suman's with Vikram- any person in his shoes would've just moved on but the writers are keen on making his character a new punching bag now. 😕

They rushed the storyline to get to the leap, but maybe since they have not been able to shoot in army base camps right now, maybe they are not able to conceptualise new things.

But basically I still feel that if:

1. Focus was on Shravan-Bunty-Suman-Kanchan and their changing dynamics, would have been more fun. Bunty Miyaan should have been with Kancha cheena, unka masti wala love was on a different level and they would have patched up SuVan post-leap.

2. Shravan was well-thought out right after the leap, would have been awesome if they were insteas exploring the case from different lenses and showing Suman that is was all two-sided (Daddu + Shravan's Chacha) and then focusing on who is to blame, would make more sense.

3. Anish and Devika didnt join army? Unka toh mention bhi nai hota hai..


Abhi toh I would truly prefer if they show some more FBs (dont know how feasible that is given their hairstyles) if they wanna show fillers rather than bore me with Vikku & Sophie.
