Why Am I still Watching IKRS ? - Page 2

Great Post Ratna 👏

Amazing post👏

Wow all the comments here are wonderful..

Lovely post prem

Fantastic post! 👏

Ratna, Good Question, have asked that myself a few times.

Hi Prem,
You always make us see the reality of what it is rather than our thoughts of what reality is and that is what I like about you. So no surprise you have come up with such a valid and a solid question of our reasons for watching IKRS despite its story line negating from its original concept with so much negativity surrounding at present without any sense of justification to the lead characters who are portrayed as shadows of their past. Yet the hope of seeing them coming back to life, claiming their place of right, showing the world that they are not afraid to speak, hear and tell the truth in the face of their deepest fear, overcoming the challenges in life with grace, dignity and humility and emerging as true heroes in their own rights, that is what makes me hang onto IKRS because it gave me this beautiful love story that moved mountains in their quest for love and that belief is still there that their strength of love and standing in the truth heralds forth the much needed awakening in us the potentiality of unbelievable heights of attainment by humanity. That truth and love will set us all free. That's my reason for watching IKRS.

I absolutely agree with you all. Love the concept of the show.

Ratna brilliant post ...to be frank I generally watch a show for the brilliant entire cast and the plot/concept of the show...I felt IPK is one show which had brilliant cast very similar to IKRS ...it's not just limited to the leads alone..entire burden shouldn't be on the leads itself ...the supporting cast does give us many flavor of emotions ...they can make us laugh, cry, make us livid for the deeds they do...and most importantly the plot of the show that is what helps us hooked to the show...Recently with you-know- who'e entry 😆 it didn't make much sense but now I'm happy with some old characters back on the show TP and suv they will push the show forward which is very much essential now...And I always felt it is better to stick to the original characters instead of bringin new ones and changing the plot entirely and not giving the required screen space to others.

Hey Ratna

Good to see you posting. 😊

I hope I am not too late with my response. For someone who seldom watches serials, I have set the record of watching 3 serials simultaneously!! Now that my Thesis is coming to an end I have more time in my hands.. 😳

I watch the show for its uniqueness, for the way writers portray their characters be it grey, black or white. All characters in this show are true to their nature. I like the show for not showing the Male Lead as God, for not showing him manhandling the female lead, for not getting into a slap-gate. Most shows have slaps galore 😆

Overall this show was unique and they did not follow the cliched path of separation based on the most flimsy reason one may find. The ML had some sense in him. I say "was" because the way Shambu's death was handled, the way Raja wielded his way in and went without a hamper have all made dents to the show. Yet, if I keep watching the show. it is because of Dhani. Somewhere in our hearts we want to know what the heck happens to this girl in the end. I would like to know if this erstwhile widow gets a happy life. Is she being treated fairly. But today after reading the updates,I sense that CVs are falling prey to TRP. Even her last anchor Vip has deserted her. it is disappointing. Their love has not withstood the trials and tribulations of life.

Why oh why? 😲 Just because every serial has a separation track, we dont have to follow the same hackneyed path. Let's not have to ape others for TRPs. Let us be different.

Why would one raise their hands if they have a difference of opinion or don't like what the other person is doing or say? This is something that I can never understand. Every other Indian serial shows people slapping each other even for comedy? Not sure what's so funny about it.

If Vip has truly landed the slap on Dhani, then my respect for the character has diminished. If he is hurt because Dhani dared hold DT by his collar then DT is no saint either!! he called Dulari characterless. Sure Dhani held DT by his collar but that is no way to treat his wife. Where was Vip when all those abuses were hurled at Dhani. Why did he not go slapping his mother or Db or DT? Did he slap Dhani because she is younger than him? has no status? or is beneath all of the other family members? Vips does not own Dhani. She stand on her own. and every human being has the right to speech and opinion.

On the other hand Dhani too has to smarten up. If the Swarna had cautioned her about those living in AN, that includes Kamini too. Not sure why she goes blurting out secrets to Kamini. Dhani thinks she is some saviour!!! why does she do things and when caught why oh why is she unable to voice the reasons? When cornered, her stammering and acting like the femme fatal is driving me up the wall. If she likes to do her own investigation she should be woman enough to fend off all those who question her motive.

Well most Indian serials are senseless. Some start of as sheer brilliant only to loose their sheen and become dull along the way. I am currently following 2 serials on Sony - Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise hi and Ek Dhuje ke Vaste. Both shows to an extent are near depicting real life. Characters and the story are being conveyed beautifully.

I hope they dont show dhani pregnant after the separation track. It will be so filmy and yewww.. 🤢
