I have been watching this show on and off, off whenever the tracks were super-lame and on as and when there was some good story-line, galti se hi sahi. The brothers bonding were a plus. Eventually that storyline got fizzled out for whatever reasons. With a spin-off and never-out-of wedding-preparations for Shivay, multiple tracks were opened and none found a logical end any time.

Anyways, with the merger that was predictable ever since it split, it becomes really taxing now to follow this "SOUP of storylines for one full hour. It became just easier to watch the show online, as it was easier to skip scenes that weren't interesting. With this merger, I did give a try to watch the show on TV. And the one thing that struck me was the fact that I really missed the character of Saumya today.

Her character had interactions with all members of this family. She sang a song for Shivay Bhaiyya at hospital; she was the muh-boli behen to Omkara. She hit off instantly with Anika Didi. She was the big Shivay-Anika shipper pretty early. She was the one shown to be excited and disappointed when they thought Shivay was gonna propose to Anika and instead announced his wedding to Tia. It was shown that she was the one who picked Anika's clothes from her house on Dadi's request after the forced wedding fiasco. She was having a unique bond with Sahil too; he was supposedly in "asli pyaar' with Saumya. One of the best scenes between a grown up Saumya and the young Sahil was the one where he dreams of her with the lovely song from Om Shanti Om in the background. Even though it ws a separately shot scene, there was this unique connect. She was the one who brought him for the pag phere. She was part of the gang, bonded well with Mallika too. They had developed meaningful interactions between Saumya and each of the other characters.

Her banter with Rudra was cheerful, youthful, funny, innocent and beautiful, what with all her "According to a survey by this university...Such a lively, jovial and interesting personality Saumya was. Why they had to chuck off her character is thoroughly groundless. One can relate to a character who's been around for the first 250 plus episodes.

It's very strange that they'd expect the audience to accept the new girl against Rudra. Leenesh's comic ting is excellent. And it's sad that one has to skip his scenes with the new lead. Rudra now looks like an infatuated teenager. I personally don't see the chemistry building.

Saumya seemed career-oriented. Becoming a Oberoi bahu would mean to be sitting at home and molly-coddling her "pati as well as assisting in yet another of Shivay bhaiyya's wedding preparations. I'd want to believe that Saumya was lucky to have escaped this Oberoi house. Oh Btw, Saumya went to Australia for higher studies. Does that mean Rudra has failed his exams and is still attending college to complete his arrears.

Nehalakshmi Iyer...miss her as Saumya. She definitely is a good actor, pretty convincing in whatever range of emotions were given to her to be enacted. Her voice modulation was good. Wish Neha finds some real good work.

I find it strange that Bhavya has sort of been forced onto the viewers and has sort of assumed to be the third "bahu" of the family without any conflict whatsoever. The makers didn't even bother to make it a logical entry and say have Dadi be upset that Rudra is sharing a room with a different girl or Shivaay get upset at the lack of Bhavya's background or something. That at least would have made sense. Instead you have Dadi saying "apni apni walo ko uthao aur kamre mein le jao"...like huh?😕

It's funny, because time and time again, tracks have been forced onto viewers of IB for a year now, and the makers still haven't realized that they'll get more push-back from the audience the more they try to force nonsensical tracks

And it's sad really. Rudy is one of my favorite characters, but whenever I see a scene with him and Bhavya together, I skip the scenes as well

Awesome post!

Why do I have a feeling that the PH thought ki audience accepted Ishana's replacement Gauri so they'll also accept Sumo'a replacement Bhavya? No one can replace Somya! She was perfect! She was actually his takkar ki! This RuVya thing is so cringy! I hardly watched DBO so was able to skip that couple but now they are permanently in IB and I swear I just change the channel when RuVya come on-screen!

Rudra is and always will be Somya's husband, and at the moment he is being emotionally unfaithful to his wife.

Living with a parayi aurat, how can Dadi out of all people, can accept it? Was this the same family who questioned Om's decision of having a live-in relationship with Riddhima (who was already his girlfriend so he was technically allowed?) And now they are letting this woman, who came out of nowhere, live in their house, with their married son, in his bedroom and encouraging him to have a relationship with her?

HOW?

And no offense to the actor who is playing Bhavya, she's pretty but there's such a huge lack of chemistry between her and Lee and also, the whole family that it feels bad. It actually feels very bad.
