the show is unique but quality and quantity dont go together and plz dont expect masses to relate themselves with the story of child and adult...ya new generation could easily accept it but what about the generation that make 90% of viewership who are taught give respect to elders call them chachi didi bhaiyya even if u dont know them and be affectionate to the youngers can u really expect ppl to except the relation where girl bathed a child and later develop romantic feeling...well by and large its a big no...we indians watch show to entertain ourselves not to apply our brains and think logically ...y should they wen there are lots of tension in their life... in india novels arent popular how can the show that is novelistic in approach appeal them...like it or not thats indian ppl...and the idea of entertainment is entierly different ...its a bitter truth...eve cv knew it and still they dare to be different hates off to indian cv for that

ya i agree with you yaar. i said what all u said in diff posts one by one as u summed it in to one post thats all diff. me too said the bitter truth in lighter vein yaar. indians has some fixed mindset.
they think foriegs can forsee n it's they copy right n they can't accpt indians to forsee the things.we agree or disagree on it yaar it's fact.we accpt easily n our creation do get recg first it has to be recg outside by outsiders then only ppl start recog it.
u see achievements of grea ppl after world recg them give awards n honors our ppl starts reocg them sad 😭 but truth yaar no offence 😊

Hmmm*scratches her head* do you really wanna know how to make it popular🤢 so let me try😛

1.let Vasant rise from the dead with plastic surgery done on his face..as his face was destroyed by the jaws of a crocodile when he was thrown into the river..for the 10 yr gap..he was rescued by machuwaras..and the lady doctor who saved his life and nurtured him..when he was in coma for 3 yrs fell in love with him..and when he became conscious he had a memory loss ..could not remember anything..but Some FB'S IN NEGATIVE GHOSTY APPEARANCE.and on the day of his marriage to this lady doctor remembers everything..comes back only to see Gulaal married and Dushy sarpanch..feels bad smells something fishy..and decides to take revenge...ooof*wonders at this weird imagination*😕

OR

2.make gulaal as dumb as ---------😛 bahu.. and get scared even if Kesu asks for tea..and cry if she puts more water in the dhokla batter coz her gallti has made the batter thin.🤢..let Paan ba roll eyes at every single activity...even if she just puts some salt in the thepla...😲

OR

3.BETTER EVEN...let gulaal faint in the air every now and then ..falling in kesu's arms every now and then..and at least 10 min eyelocks...with dupatta flying every now and then🤢

Or

4.add numerous stupid love scenes..every now and then ...and let the constipated expressions cover their faces or even better change 1000 expressions in a single moment..for trivial matters like..chini kheer mein kum pad gayi...ab kya karenge😲

Or

4.change the entire story and only concentrate on saas making the bahu life miserable track ...🤢

OR

5.introduce a married SIL who hatches conspiracies every now and then..who only always lives in the mayka,...as if she dosen't have any other motto in life except..interfering in the activities of her mayka🤢

And see its very easy to make Gulaal popular...no brains required...even a ghatiya shayar chipkaoing only senseless shayari can think of so many ideas..it is absolutely effortless🤪

chal koi gal nahi...i know lot of ppl codemn indian viewers for not liking the show its wrong on thier part every ppl have their own liking...y to be ashamed if indians dont like a adult and child relation...if in reality it happens the boy will get a big GPL...indian audience should shame if they dont like taare zammen par or iqbal but its was huge hit..we are not ruthless..just the subject of the show is beyond imagination for most of us...one must not blame indain viewers for this...the content itself is controversial...not readily accepted by the ppl😳😳

@arti
even if the content is not readily acceptable
the CV's have unfolded the show in such a manner that u can relate to the love between kesar and gulaal. but for that u have to watch the show thoroughly ..
the problem with general viewers is that they do not watch the show as closely as we crazy fans do...shows like gulaal need close watch by audience else they wont get the elemental message..whereas in other shows even if we miss couple of episodes we will still be able to follow it ...coz they are damn easy to understand...u dnt need any brain for that
..most of the viewers are not net savvy like us...we watch the scenes again and again on YT
but what about the viewers who missed the crucial points of the show...they cant go back and watch..gulaal is like a movie u have to just sit through each and every scene of it..else u miss the train and is forced to use ur brain which ppl dont do..

@nneeiill, thanks for the welcome. Yes, this show has shown the most consistency in characters and even their growth. You rightly pointed out that this show needs close observation and not casual viewing. It is an intense drama dealing with intricate and complex relationships which are shaped mostly by destiny. While the relationship between Kesar and Gulaal may be considered taboo, considering that Gulaal is not only older to him by 7-8 years but was also his bhabhi (Bhabhi in India is equated to mother in many families) before a quirk of fate made him her husband, the slow progression in the dynamics of their relationship makes such a relationship not only believable but also acceptable. But then as you pointed out one needs to have seen that progression to accept it. I watched all the Gulaal-Kesar-Vasant scenes over a span of two days. So it was like watching a movie and hence I could appreciate the flow and accept the story as it is told. Not everyone who may have started to watch the show would have watched it consistently and may have been put off by the whole adult-child marriage. I also had the benefit of watching the show backwards, is so far as I saw the Kesar-Gulaal scenes first before I saw the Gulaal-Vasant-boy Kesar scenes. So it did not strike me as odd that Kesar has fallen for Gulaal. If on the other hand it may have been more difficult for someone who had seen the boy Kesar with Gulaal first and then try to comprehend the transformation of that boy to the passionate man he has become.

I hope the show retains its distinctness right up to the end and does not show Kesar unite with Talli because her alliance with Kunal breaks at the nth hour and Kesar feels obliged to tie the knot with the girl he had ditched at the altar not so long ago and Gulaal resigning to lead the rest of her life with memories of her dead husband.

^Welcome to the forum. Kesar and Talli are out of the equation because it genuinely seems like the writers are painting Kunal as the perfect guy for Talli who will stay by her side even if his parents refuse.

I had seen the young Kesar with Gulaal first and he was always this passionate as a child too especially towards Gulaal. His obsession with her has been there since forever but of course over time it grew in to something a man would feel for a woman. All the signs were there and Vasant was only a bridge between the two.
So even though to an onlooker it will seem taboo, you have to closely observe the dynamics between the two from the time when Kesar was a kid to where they are now. It all makes a lot of sense, Gulaal and Kesar were meant to be together.

Reemz, I do hope Kesar and Talli are out of the equation but there is a nagging feeling at the back of my mind because Kunal did say that only the relationship of the heart matters to him and not material things. Now we have still not seen Talli completely over her past although she is trying desperately to forget Kesar. If Kunal gets to see her pining for Kesar, the marriage could be called off. I do hope I am wrong in reading too much into this.

When I said the transformation into the passionate man I meant in terms of his feelings. Yes, he was always passionate and headstrong even as a child but we now see a maturity in the man after that display of strong emotions bordering on obsession over the woman which may not go down well with the faint hearted. I really loved the characterisation of Kesar. Here is a guy who is a victim of destiny and other people's decisions on his life which were taken with good intensions but left a boy who was on the verge of adolescence confused over his identity. His character, apart from Dushyant's has really grown and developed for the better over time.

I think that's why they showed Talli giving a closure when she shut that box up. She is willing to move on! More than anything else, they can't leave Gulaal losing her love again. Recently it's been all about the woman in her awakening inside her and like I said, predictions for GK were made way back in the initial stages of the show.

Perfect .. perfect..!! U have finally summed up all the necessary points..👏
Oh yes, there's another idea tht can be added to the list...
- Suddenly the Mota bha family faces a financial problem due to sm business loss etc etc.. and then out of all the members of the house, gulaal decides to take up the responsibily and get a job in a city.. where a desi gulaal finds work (retaining her rustic dressing style) as a secretary of an extremely handsome and successful (but arrogant) business tycoon.. initially she is mocked at by all nd sundry and slowly she goes on to win hearts (including one of her boss).. and then blah blah blah... (That is an essential sequence in almost every other show these days)
All our so called "highly popular" and "high TRP" dramas have the same storyline and sequences.. but we must appreciate tht they take so much pain to introduce new faces in every show although they have nothing new to narrate... 🤢
