Slapstick COMEDY=Drop in TRPs-Lowest TRP in weeks

I didn't enjoy the episode today because they stole from the intensity factor, and over loaded it with the OTT comedy factor.

i didn't like Khushitoying with his food at the cost of his health again...it doesn't make sense, and its not consistent with the ever vigilant wife who ensures that he doesn't eat sweet, so as to not fall ill...

I feel like these scenes are not well thought out...they use food at their whim, they use his health at their whim...there is no consistency.

The Gupta Ladies, like typical middle class families went above and beyond to make their Amir Damaad feel comfortable, trying to cater to his eating habits, and providing an environment of comfort. This would have been much better received had it not been served up in roll of comic revenge. I would have liked Arnav to recognize the love and efforts of these women, and realize the purity of the adulation they feel for their son-in-law...it would have been a humbling experience for ASR. It may have forced himself to ponder on why he think Khushi is a gold digger...how is that possible...if this is the family she comes from, and these are the values that have been instilled in her?


Instead all I saw was:

Granted that the Gupta ladies are not sophisticated and stuff..but look at all that love they were showering on Arnav, and all she did was ridicule that love today. What did Khushi gain by making her family look more stupid and low class in front of ASR?? Apne hi paair pe khuladhi maari na!!😡

This is not Khushi!! Before when she wanted to get back at him...she did it on her own...not at the cost of making anyone else look bad.

The Arnav Babuji scene...totally underplayed and depicted with such loose direction...that it made me gag!! In trying to show Arnav anger at being played by his wife...he lost his essential qualities to?? He forgot his upbringing?? Why...because showing that would have decreased the comedy element?

All i saw was a dud scene, where Arnav goes thru the motions of acknowledging her father's existence...nothing more...showing no respect at all.

What I would have liked to see:

I would have like Arnav to stay true to his upbringing, and honor that silent mutual respect and the connection that these 2 men have, by bending and taking his ashirwaad upon seeing him. This would have been an intense scene...where they both know and accept that the connection between them is the women they both love and related to...a daughter, and a wife...Khushi. That would have been intense.

Now for those of you who will argue that ASR does not bow down to anyone...let me remind you of Diwaali night...after he rejected Khushi...and hurt her, denied himself the luxury of her love...when he dropped her home and she left her wallet in his car. He came back to return that wallet, he was invited into the house...and upon entering, he took Shahi Babuji's ashirwaad...because that has been ingrained into him...a trait instilled into him by his Mother...one that he would not walk away from...that is the true Arnav.

For those of you that argue that Arnav is not an inherently religious being...i beg to differ there too. He may publicly not practice it, but he is familiar with all religious rites and obligations, and when push does come to shove...he honors them, because, again this is another trait instilled in him by his mother.
