This obsession makes character actors as nuisance to be tolerated upon until the next lovelock appears. This creates fan wars. My pair is better than your pair and my hero is better than your hero.

It also creates those meaningless fan appreciation threads.

Story has to be about romance only even if there is a death in the family. How the heroine runs to the hero and embraces him tightly. during her hour of sorrow.😆

But it has come to stay.

well said, maximum fights in any forum on IF is due to jodi-comparisons..finally the forum becomes a battlefield and i shut up totally on the forum..😆 coz tolerance and humor is totally banned apparently..

Look at the examples of the Tv world.

1. In one series, a man is found guilty of raping a girl while she was unconscious. She later marries his elder brother. The couple is happy until the rapist makes a comeback. Moral : Rapist, if a close relative must be let off.

2. In a large number of series, the male lead forces the girl to marry him. The idea may be to save family reputation, sister marriage or anything else and the use of force may be physically dragged to the mandap or threatening dire consequences. In a couple of months, our hero falls for our girl and has some Hriday parivartan Moral: Forced marriage is after all a good remedy for abusive men

3. Pakdao shadi: what is it ? it is a kind of marriage where grooms are abducted and then married off at gun point. In one such series, we saw the family accepting the marriage as marriage is after all a marriage Moral: Marry in whatever consequences, go on with it because it is after all a marriage

So true!

I have seen all discussions reduced to jodi and rival AT wars in many forums. This is why I have never joined any jodi AT on IF. Just joined character AT once and that too for Mohit Raina in Mahadev forum.

Seriously! People look for hugs and eyelocks even in funeral scenes. Other characters and main story are ignored.

Serial can be about domestic violence or crime. But talk will be only of jodi. Rapist or wife beater should be reformed because we want "luv storyyy".

But makers of shows should ignore such stuff. DKDM dug its own grave by bringing back Mouni Roy as Sati. It never recovered again. Jodi obsession sidetracks stories.

Forums often become so segregated that only ATs are updated. There is no general topic for debate.

We are sadly in minority online. But thankfully not real life. Most luv story shows are actually lagging on TRP chart.😆 And movie industry has also moved on to other themes.

Durga can marry after quickly finishing off revenge no? How do you expect her to carry out her plan if married? Rather than dragging they should finish revenge.

As for Payal. At least let her recover man! Let her recover and reconnect with ongoings, reconnect with sister. Then we'll talk of a guy. Plus that guy does not have to be a friend of Shaurya!

I already mentioned that after recovery, Payal should start her life afresh. I would like to see that in the show. How she fights with the society. It'll be very hard for her.

I am not saying Durga should get married now. No way. Then what will be the difference between EHT and saas-bahu drama?😲😆. I just want her to have some light moments with Dev or Payal or Dayal with anyone. Even if it becomes a way for DevGa then I have no objection.

There is this story where the hero or villain? beat his wife to a pulp with a belt and now he is reforming And so many are rejoicing. He even threw a nice birthday party to win over his wife who was tortured for years. It is like beating a child and giving it an icecream to mollify it. There are so many closeups of them together nowadays.

Cvs donot do it.. thanks to the audience. They love tortured and crying women, The idea of single woman doesn't exist. I remember in another serie( Sanjeeda's) a divorced woman is harassed because she is 'pati ki chodi hui'. How disgusting is that ? In real life people are not at all concerned with anyone's marital status.

They are pathetic I know. This is why I expected EHT to be different.

The way things are going I fear they might make Payal say one day that she wants no revenge. Humein kya milega yeh sab kar ke and all. And Durga might marry Dev while the criminals still roam free. Or it may become saas bahu, bhabhi devar drama as Durga becomes Goenka bahu while Sakshi and Shaurya fume.😲

Cinevistaas made award winning shows in past. No idea what they will do now.

I wanted Durga and later recovered Payal and Dev to fight together with her for justice. Then a group hug after Shaurya is trampled. And then happily ever after like good old days. This triangle and Dev's lack of firmness with Shaurya plus Durga's distraction and guilt are giving me creeps.

I want Durga to choose Payal over Dev if there comes any such situation. As far as Indian shows are concerned, Payal will give the'qurbaani' for her elder sister's happy married life with Dev.

But there are still some shows which passes a social message like in Zee's show Doli Armaano Ki...where the husbands beats wife and the wife complains a police report. I don't know the rest. I think the channels and producers should bring such shows to us.
