@Somzz007

That is what I love about all your posts your humor and refreshing candor. While I may not always be able to respond due to my work pressure but I do love reading your various posts. Yes too much analysis can lead to paralysis😊

I am hoping that what LadyLa La had suggested- a Ram fighting for the dignity of Sita will happen so we shall wait and see. In the meanwhile I am looking forward to some real crackers from you over the coming week and don't worry about the spamming bit I do enjoy when the discussions also go off tangent, makes life more interesting

@tangam

Thank you and while I try not to respond and repeat to myself this is just a soap but at times it can get so out of hand here that its either implode or explode for me and this last weekend has brought out some of the worst suggestions and ideas for the female protagonist to do.

@nitz17

😊I really feel warm and fuzzy with the amount of positive feedback I have been receiving and thank you so much. I am not a regular but I do contribute when the need rises. One of my first posts here literally led to a blood bath of words as I had written something that went against popular opinion and I nearly quit but for a wonderful goldie who urged me not to do so, While there is nothing wrong in supporting the character that you like the most there is a thin line between critique and slandering and many unfortunately fall into the second category especially when it comes to KKG.

And don't worry I loved the off tangent bites

@Japonica

Go Girl and aptly written. You have spelled it out so well and clearly to prove that it is not a straw men fallacy here👏

@asr4ever

Lol no way was it directed at you and I have read some of your posts on the sartorial splendor or rather the lack of it in both of them and have enjoyed it. Girl you have an eye for fashion and have been spot on over some of the hairstyle gaffes and fashion faux pas in the serial. I guess the language that was used to describe KKG's attire and the way it was dissected and sniggered at in a very mean way by certain members rankled more than anything else. Please do carry on with your reviews they make for great reading- Anna Wintour would have liked it

Khushi's interpretation will always be subject to the channels view and that is why we see so many facets without any concrete mould. They want her sacrificing funny silly irritating pious sensual the list is endless till they make up their minds which looking at the current track is Sita/Draupadi/ Arundhati all rolled into one so lets stock up on the tissues and handkerchiefs….all the better to snort at the creative team😡

I say..lets start the discussion...who should throw first punch at Shyam... Khushi or ASR..
or maybe Baby Anjali... or maybe a leg-lick from Laxmi...

Let us please😆

@no one

Thank you 😊and I couldn't agree more with what you have written and find this whole animosity in the forum over one character .unpalatable. It's just a TV drama.

@asha

Thank you for your kind words😊 and agree with what you had to say- reality and fiction are 2 separate things, and the way track is heading I can only choke and sputter

@Sugarbabe

Thank you

It takes a real heartless monster with some serious daddy issues to do that. ASR's been a mamma's and sister's boy all throughout, If the CV's want to butcher his character to minute pieces, then they should go for it.😊

I just love the way you have summed it up. I also agree that it will be consensual and more so considering the time band and viewership of the show but the big question is how will she react after she knows the truth? Will she feel used abused and cheated? Will she feel she had cheapened herself and her motives would have been entirely different from his so yes lots of holes and will have to wait for the CV's to fill in the gaps.

The crux of the problem in this forum is that her behavior is the one that has always been questioned and reached ridiculous heights over the weekend. The forum was just flooded with some the most sickeningly outrageous ideas and suggestions and quite surprised you missed them.

I really have no problems with his reaction and seriously no problems with his character either except when the forum goes overboard in praising him to the skies whilst burying her 6 feet under the ground I wish he would use his analytical mind to fill in the words to the puzzle. His approach in today's episode was not exactly heartening or what I had in mind and will have wait agonizingly for the damn CV's to figure out the plot as it is still early days

I also mentioned in my previous post about her personal failings and how it has brought her to this

@Krani

No problems 😊

@Angels 11

Let's just say hypothetically a post is started to maybe critique a particular trait or failing in a character and all the right words and expressions are used and it seems alright on the face of it. Then slowly the tone of the post starts changing by virtue of just one person posting a provocative remark which receives the approval of some members and then another takes that as a sign to carry further and soon some of the most insane nonsense is coming out of that topic and right before you could say Jack Robinson spinoffs over that particular topic soon floods the forum and parroting the same gibberish as everyone wants to be the first to bring down a character that they particularly don't care for. It can be a tiresome experience not to mention draining to see one copy post after another of the same nonsense.

Everybody has a right to express their opinions and yes one can show their like or dislike but when it starts to be just acidic vitriol pouring out with sniggers and attacks of a personal nature on a character even if it is fictional then it is another matter. All I ask is that we can all agree to disagree over the serial without going overboard in our reactions and yes if tomorrow I come across a nasty post against the male protagonist you will also find me defending him.

@laddoo598

Thank you and your take on the daily episodes are something I really enjoy reading and you are absolutely unbiased in your reviews. On days when I am not able to catch or understand the episode properly I manage to figure out by reading your post.

The CVs wanted an MU track and IMO they made Khushi behave out of character very conveniently for the same..Why can't we just leave it at that? Questioning her character and integrity just because of one poorly executed scene is ridiculous!

Hear! Hear!👏

And am hoping the track plays out like you have written and yes there is a fine line between the lunatics and the fanatics. Honestly I have never defended anyone so much in my life as I doing here over the pointless tearing to bits of one character😊

@solembaum

Brilliant and well said Bravo! I did not want to add to your analysis

He is the most wordly wise, totally cynical person around.. who loves his Di to death and still couldn't figure out what kind of person he was getting his Di married to? forget figuring out at that point... even after 3 years he still hadn't figured out👏

A point very well made!

Hi, I am sorry but I really do not agree with what's written in the paragraph above.

Some people may follow the thinking stated above, but I am sure I speak for most members when I type this.

We did not hate Lavanya because she wore skimpy dresses and did not know much about the culture.

NK does not even know Hindi properly - do we hate him? No.

The reason there was an animosity against Lavanya was because she was portrayed as a character who was not particularly nice to Khushi. She started off as someone who was mean, and this naturally brought on the dislike towards her.

But she changed, and she became nicer. Did we still hate her? No. The moment she changed for the better, the forum sympathised with her.

It was the channel's and the CVs decision to change her clothes. However the Indian clothes did not sprout our love for her.

Likewise, we do not love Khushi because she knows the culture, is obedient and wears Indian clothes.
There have been protagonists in the past in different serials, who have worn Western Clothing, and everyone have loved them.

We love Khushi for who she is. Not what she wears

She is a fun-loving, bubbly, fiery, moralistic, honest girl. She does not take shit from people, but at the same time she is considerate of others' feelings.

And I don't understand why Khushi needs to learn how to speak English, wear dresses to get people's respect?
She has my respect for who she is - even though she can't speak English, not educated and does not wear dresses. And I am not saying that I love her because she is those things. I am saying that I love her despite her not being able to speak English, not being educated and not wearing dresses.

Sorry for the tad delay in replying rotten couple of days at work and the week is just midway through😭

@somz007

I really want to let you know that you have a God given talent/gift for making people laugh and feel happy inside. My grasp of Hindi is a bit limited but I was anyways chuckling over some of the witty repartees and retorts that were going on in the thread. It actually made me want to reach for a Hindi dictionary so I could get a better idea of the humor.

Thank you for that kind offer to join the thread and I will certainly be dropping in.

P,S. Glad to see I have done my bit to spread the habit of reading😊

@asr4ever

Once again thanks for all those lovely compliments and thank you also for inviting me and will definitely drop in on the weekends which are when I am a bit freer.

You do have your unique writing style and have an eye for fashion. Actually I started to look out for the style trends being sported by the characters after your post. Each of us have our unique gifts and yours is definitely in the forte of vogue. And yes Augh that Gelled look has to stop as does that damn plait extension of hers.One can only hope

Seriously the designers at IPKKND really want to pull the wool over our eyes and would like us to believe that they are being Eco friendly and all what with the recycling bit- that yellow outfit that KKG wore for the Haldi ceremonies was actually made from a sari that Anjali wore in some of the earlier episodes. I call it being mingy! This production house really knows how to stretch the value of the rupee. So much so I can see the fibers from which it was made😉

Maybe your wish to see the pom poms disappear will be finally realized now that she is presumably married. Infinite patience immediate results!

Ruefully I must agree with you that yes writing about a style trend is far less stressful!😊
