The whole interview was cringeworthy. Nothing makes sense. Not the characters, the tracks, or the clothes. Honestly, I would have more respect for her if she was more honest with herself.
I knew nothing would happen to Pinky and Anika's mahaan biwi avatar was going absolve her of all her manipulations. I'm actually okay with that because this is exactly the level of writing I expect. What I find insanely hilarious is the waste of time. She literally built up a story for 5 months and now she is going to completely scrap everything to make this into a Shivaay lesson. She ruined the show, the characters, and slowly murdered the whole flow of the show just to go in a giant circle for absolutely no reason. I'm not a writer, but seriously have the guts to commit to your ideas. If she wanted new parallel leads for them then she should have done it. It would have made more sense than the Samar guy disappearing and VAT popping up out of nowhere or Ragini being a vamp on standby.
What did she gain from sticking to her floundering arc for so long? The TRPs fell, she drove away the audience, ruined the characters, and stressed herself out for nothing. Now, the poor souls that actually stuck around to this point are met with this pathetic attempt at writing. This is now about love being more important than truth? If this track was about the truth Anika could have easily left without a word to anyone leaving him heartbroken. The silly 3 month lapse happens then she goes back to being the competent adult she is. He finds her or she goes back to OM using a typical serial method (Daadi is unwell, Sahil gets sick and she needs money for Sahil). Cue the angst, hurt feelings, and evil Pinky hovering over them for being in the same house. The writers can even throw in a cute baby track and OTT TRP bahu tears. Whatever ridiculous reason the writer used has a expiration date then expiration date is over except this time she fights for her relationship while he lets go of the hurt feelings instead of dwelling on the past. Then cut to dramatic reunion that leads to a happy August shaadi. Pinky loses with her secret in tact, Anika gets a spine, no one except Anika would know about his parentage so no threat from Tej, and Shivaay learns to value what he has.
What was shown instead was his own family plotted, manipulated, and broke him, but that is unimportant because love matters more. She comes back into his life with a short dress and new rich fake fiance acting like the gold digger Pinky made her out to be. Pinky is still happily plotting and ruining everyone's lives because she is insecure. Everyone is still lying to his face and he doesn't notice a ring on her finger for weeks when he noticed everything she wore and did in the past. His is either being lectured or played like a puppet to act like a jealous manchild over a fake wedding. Anika is a different character in every episode. No growth or development in her character. The others are purposely shoved into this giant shaadi debacle because she can't think of any tracks for them. But this is all about trust. The same trust, love, and respect they don't have for him he is supposed to return. He is the bad guy here so he needs to forgive and act like nothing ever happened. This is her amazing arc 😆 The best part is now we're all supposed to pretend like this track was the original plan, but we are just too impatient lol.
I understand being proud of your work, but come on she maimed her own characters and is now acting like the audience is wrong for not accepting this garbage. I'm genuinely curious is she okay right now. I think the pressure is getting to her. It's just entertainment, but this is such a disservice to the audience that tolerated this mindless garbage for months. This is a classic case of you reap what you sow. The PH put no thought or effort into the show and the audience is returning the disinterest in fold, but we are the problem here.
