Swabhiman..this gen2 story is almost completely adopted from there with influences from mohor & just a tiny bit from hindi remake on same channel.
Ishaan is a much better written male lead character than one in marathi version so far. In marathi version, the male lead humiliated the fl more & worse & his repentance wasn't as well shown as shown here. Ghum writers are adding some good touches and scenes here and there to the characters which is making them better than their counterpart.
Just to explain, in other hindi remake, this character assassination by male lead character was done when he had already started developing feelings for female lead(there the ml developed some soft feelings from their first hug time). His dialogues to her were harsh. It was some library scene where he got a bit push & pull touchy with her and asked her to use her card or wild card it was on him like she did with her jiju. That show was very popular online & people cheered for that ship & character.
So Ishaan if you see is basically a saint in front of all that..
Yes, I just browsed through the plot of Swabhimaan, it is mostly the same and then there is Shaurya aur Anokhi which also has similar plot devices. It will take some time for Ishaan to fall in love here, i feel. Also, I think they are trying to implement both, but are making it more appealing for a Hindi speaking audience. I don't think they will drag the falling in love bit. They will drag the obstacle more to their marriage. And then there is Reeva as well, which they will be using. But yes, Ishaan and Savi will be getting married. Surekha, Yashwant, Nishikant and Reeva are the main villains here. Mostly Surekha.
