Lovely post...!

I m still trying to understand whats new in redux.

Initially as per the challenge thrown in by Mr.awasthi I felt that has a lot of potential n that I will see real shivika from above seeing how they meet n regroup again.

But surprise surprise😆

Writers changed the concept overnight saying ' shivika wohi, kahani nai'. Chalo as a audience we will take this too coz again it has potential. But the characters are way too remorsed n dark n at the same time completely resembling to shivika.may be the tones have changed...there cud be so many more things...but this looks like a total reboot!

Why a dosa stall for Anika, nothing else suffices? Why gauri was shown so helpless...now all of thm will stay at OM...hayo rabba!

I know it's a challenge m we need to give it time but sadly there is nothing new till now.

Though I loved harneet article today...hopefully they will come up to the promise of their words this redux😳



Thanks, Thwisha :)


LOL frankly I'm giving feedback on an epi by epi basis...cuz this Redux is a mixed bag so far...I was giving them time ki when Shivika finally meet, perhaps some shifts will happen, characters will open up...but today proved that they have literally NOTHING to show but typical TV cliches on Shivika interactions in this AU.


Dosa stall chhodo, where is the TAKKAR? Without takkar there is NOTHING in this show...nothing in Shivika...whatever grand fantasies HS is spinning in her head, one thing she needs to understand is that taking away that basic takkar waali quality to whatever Shivika have b/w them in the name of doing something "different' is certifiably going to sink this redux and this show without a doubt.


That was a joke in the name of "takkar" today...Anika retorting with one taunt about his Mom does NOT make for takkar...upar se him smashing his fist into random pieces of glass is too much typical TV cliche for me...and really makes me lose interest.


LOL what is new in this redux, you ask? The "new" is actually the same old of desi TV...haha IB was new BEFORE...now it's the SAME OLD of EVERY show on TV😆...they are effectively diluting all the things that set them apart.

Well said:)

Takkar ka T bhi nahi tha! She flinches on his wound. Excuse me! Give it off to that guy..walk out gracefully...how difficult it is!

That prinku Shivaay hug scene keeps reminding me off their hug scene n might get a reboot with amika saying, " Shivaay aap mujhe hug kar sakte hai, biwi hun main aapki.infact aapko hug karna chaiye...aaiye"😉😆

Harneets thoughts are great...but somewhere they are going back to their old sense...the characters are darker...but similar values, I m already drained out thinking it's a uphill jounrney ahead with ' mafi mango' n what not in the name of reboot-redux!

LOL maa pe jaana bhi tha toh better tareeke se jaate...I get that HS has built up some lame backstory around the Maa angle this time but find a better way to inject it in as a conflict than these childish, badly transitioned lines...so much for "man" and "woman" story...lol man and woman aise Maa waale taunts maarte hain so childishly? Sure, H


Yeah I read that now. Childish ab lag raha hai between man woman story. So previous Shivika Kya teenagers the?


LOL arey Anika ne dohraya to show how "khidkitod" she is...aise apparently "khidkitodness" prove ho gayi ek Maa wala taunt maar ke...so "maturely" done in this "mature woman" version of Anika according to HS😆

Maturity nahi ise EGO kehna teekh hoga

Physical intimidation is standard TV soap cliche I'm afraid...but yes, it was extra lame to have to watch it on Shivika like this after all this time...especially when this Anika is now typical FL backing up if he tries to intimidate her.
I miss her " Mei aapse darrti nahin hoon". That's the girl most of us love.

Exactly...they are trying to show that he struggles with expressing his emotions, love and concern but in trying to write it "differently" from the previously emotionally stunted Shivaay, this one is just coming across as half-baked and lacking in impact.
Absolutely true. Stunted alag. Aise scene with wrongly placed emphasis denge toh emotionally /mentally challenged na lagne ke liye, NM really has a tough job at hand.


It's true...spoiler ppl confirmed it on Twitter...lol...so small mercies
there.
Oh that's lovely. Apni Dadi ke aane se Kaveri darling ke sarees bach gaye.

This one is true as well, I'm afraid.
..lol...Satyanash

I never liked him either but I guess ppl are nostalgic for him cuz of the catalyst he was in the Shivika story...
Character and actor dusre ho toh bhi catalyst hone ka premise rakh len, if that is all they can do.

I sense a rinse/repeat of the whole mistress MU from version 1, that is why Daksh is back...so forced wedding can also be expected I suppose.

LOL how will they reboot "maafi maango"? Is waali Anika ne toh aaj already sorry bol bhi diya to Shivaay about Prinku. And she will cave in two seconds if he demands any apology from her😆


Only Shivaay is darker...Anika is subdued...and that is a very depressing combination...they don't have the necessary traits to balance each other out...just the standard, "FL who will heal his darkness" trope ain't gonna cut it for me...too cliched.

Great observation there!

My issue is cliche is also not done like a proper cliche...n that's looking neither here or there! There are being too careful.they need to drop everything n get going with what they want to rebuild...they need to go all out in character rather than hold back their own n our own dearest characters!

I mean why shud I be really excited for Anika calling khannaji as Khanna bhaiya.😆😕...that's just an example!

Idk i am missing my old Anika and i am feeling like we will never going to get our old/original Anika and Shivika back after knowing gul said it as season 2. i was ok with less shivika scenes before this redux and i almost got detached with the show with groupbaazi before but i had always a little hope that we would get Anika pregnancy track,Shivika or Ansh track one day,and show will progress further if at all the show didn't go off air.But what happened,they themselves made kachra of the charaterisations and gave me a wierd feeling and dread that whether i will like SC in any other role in future in any other shows.As all shows write nonsense stuff to the FL.i thought i can enjoy SC in any role,but what the writer had done .I thought its not easy for me to not enjoy any scene of SC,i mean she inherently had very interesting traits she is highly expressive and have excellent dialogue delivery and something attractive and immense entertaining factor,but what had Harneeth done to my SC/Anika i mean anyone can learn from Harneeth how to not utilising the best thing ,she always doesn't give much importance to Anika character but still SC raised above all this and stood as centre of attraction in the show.How can she write such half baked and nonsense stuff on new Anika character or for the SC role .I am feeling very bad for SC,she derserves much more than this for her immense dedication and talent.

Good point...there is a sense of them sort of hanging in the middle uncertainly without wanting to commit to either direction...neither fully the previous Shivaay and Anika and neither fully some new version...and that is diluting the impact onscreen in some ways...When they use the soulmate angle to inject deja vu into this current version of Shivika, then the scenes still work...but without that, these characterizations lack impact.


Haha yeah I'm not sure why we are supposed to feel excited for Khanna BHAIYYA either...it all feels like a fan fiction that you can chuckle over, not exactly feel invested in...investments requires strong characterization...which needs some strong traits for audiences to connect to...this "dark" Shivaay and subdued Anika aren't really cutting it for me and their interactions with their respective families this time are also way more cliched and thanda.


I'm open to Shivika being different from before...but I still need them to have some ZING in their characterizations and some form of takkar...otherwise this is a wasted endeavor.

Waise I genuinely don't understand what HS means by saying that Anika's situation is more "precarious" this time so she doesn't have the "luxury" of showing spunk and giving it back to ppl.

Wasn't the previous Anika the sole breadwinner of her family too? Didn't the previous Anika almost have her house DEMOLISHED by Shivaay, got sent to JAIL by him and was still standing strong? So why are we being given these lame excuses of how this Anika alone is in a financially precarious situation and the previous one was not?


Fact is the previous one impressed us right off the bat with her spunk and fighting spirit...the current one's fighting spirit is SO diluted that we have to FORCE ourselves to give it token acknowledgement...that is not good writing.

Forgot to add...
Which mahan insaan's creativity was the blood drops mixing up.
Coagulation factor ke practical classes at hospital. Wah!!!

Can get it ki story be like "khoon se rangi" NKK ka ek K checked out hua lagta hai.


Edited::: If I am Shivay, nothing in the present Anika is grandly appealing to be drawn to her. Pre redux connect ke basis pe they can't build an entire sustainable story.

Yeah I agree. This Anika is not Khidkitod, she is rather shown as a becharri and all righteous FL. This might appeal more to TRP audience as you have pointed out. But I just can't take this Anika anymore who has been shown halt sai majboor, bechari and such a weak character. I don't know how they will show a stronger conflict between Shivika because the last time it was opposite attract and both of them were shown as a very strong characters. But this time, the spark is missing in Anika. I am looking forward to redux as its a new story for Shivika but I am not sure how its going to turn out well, if they will not bring the old Khidkitod Anika for SSO. 😕

I will cut a slack for this to HS. HS has admitted that redux happened overnight and may be due to that characters are not sketched properly or story is not written properly. HS said, Khidkitod Anika will be back, may be she meant in few episodes later and due to poor planning, they could not give a good personality sketch to Anika. We could only wait and see for next HS presenting. 😆
