Though i have no complaints about the story/dialogues/direction currently... but their wardrobe is seriously a concern... can we please add footwear to the list along with their dresses/suits... Arnav and Khushi have been wearing those pair since the first episode... Arnav's shoes doesnt even look polished on some days...

I dont know why this PH are a bunch of misers... :(

Just beacuse they have good actors with them doesnt mean they start neglecting these things which in no sense should be ignored... 😲

I could not agree with you more. Day by day it is getting horrible.

I was 100percent sure that after ME they would show us crap.
There has been no storyline since last 2months. The biggest thing was
MU, and they brought it out in open in worst possible way.

After waiting forever, they showed Arnav brainless and suffering from amnesia
and not to forget CV are still figuring if Khusi is Naiive/ Dumb/ Smart / idiot.

In meantime we are getting frustrated and may be done waiting and might find something better!

After all we all want good entertainment!

i get that ur frustrated.

but i think the story is getting so much better nowdays.

there is no ott comedy khushi is serious and reflective. i am loving the khushi scenes this past two weeks

shyam scenes are also great.

i thikn people look at the past with nostalgia. i have been here since the start and people hated arnav back when the show started, then we hated all the religious bend the show went on, then we hated la for a while as much as we hate bubbly now. so there has always been bad stuff in the show since the start. the difference is we have had such great episodes with arhi that the standard for this show is set really high.

after the sp awards where they won big perhaps out of over confidence of just that they were tired the cv's took a break and it hurt the show a lot. there were no promo no promotion and a real lack of story after the marriage. and people lost interest. i think the cv's do seem to have a plan in mind and our getting the story back on track.

people are liking these episodes on a whole and achieving that while a one of the leads is missing is big. arnav is a huge part of the show and the sole reason many girls watch the show. so i think serious story tracks have been laid but it will take them time to get totally back on top. they are giving promos on a regular bases and the episode are flowing better nowdays. good that they are ending the bubbly track and as for masala mama he is not ott character that i feared. mama seems to be missing so they got another guy to talk with mami.. so the audience will come back .. and barun returning will also help a lot.

@tiya and arisai...
actors usually where channel provided or PH proided clothing for promotional tours...Sanaya was appearing a sthe actress who plays khushi so a glamorised khushi is what you see...
as for the costume I think khushi is done well...you might not like her outfits but that is what represents khushi and her style...
About dressing better...its a six month contract...his least thought was her out fits and if she has any pride she will not weat things provided by him...I think they have gone the distance to show us that with the petty 300rs play...
Arnav however needs to be dressed better his stylist needs a serious education...
and of course the set itself needs revamping and the the set director...to a revamp...
the other stuff I guess has been discussed to death...
the current track is long overdue...would have been more meaningfull if we did not already know he is MIA...
Shyams charactorisation is the best of all...they have stayed with the charactor and slowly evolved him to maniac...Acting I think Abhaas does justice ...they need to make him stop twitiching...that takes away from him...he has had some steller moment tho...
todays dhall scene to me was eerie and he drove a point home for Khushi the realisation that he was capable of anything...
khushi's monologue was superb...that scene was done just right...
overall screen time was divided in proper proption across the board...with most of the cast appearing on screen
so as this is a hit and mis...today was defo a hit...in my books...

i feel like a creep liking everyone's comments on this post, but i cant help it cause YOU'RE ALL RIGHT! I agree 100% with you all. From the storyline to the clothes, everything has been going downhill. Someone mentioned that we as viewers have seen Geet. Isn't the production house for ipkknd the same as Geet? In Geet we saw fantastic clothing and sets, why not for ipkknd!?! It's really irritating how the PH and CVs think viewers will accept anything they show us, no matter how nonsensical it is. they are skipping over so many important things that can become significant if brought to light. for example, babuji's illness. it's been like 8 months or so, there should be some progress with his health shown, maybe him being able to speak will clear arnav's doubts. payal and akash can be shown as a strong parallel couple, but no, they are reduced to limited screen time, and whatever screen time they DO have, is spent on nonsense like bubbly. speaking of bubbly, what is up with her?!?! if she was shown as a child that is simply too attached to akash, that's understandable. but here bubbly is shown as a creepy lover-ish type of kid, she's a freakin parallel to shyam for goodness sakes!!!! and i dont know if the CVs know this, but...payal has a brain and a mouth!! remember when arnav brought an unconscious khushi from the guesthouse, payal had yelled at arnav so much!!!!! and she had such strong dialogues, that it actually made arnav reflect on his actions and feel bad. Payal freakin knows the truth about shyam, the least she could do is help defend khushi against him. she could even confide this truth to akash, and he would believe her, and this trust would make an excellent parallel to khushi and arnav.

and please...dont even get me started on clothing and hair!!!!! anjali has a new saree on each day! i have never seen both shyam and anjali repeat their clothes. and here both the leads are wearing the same stuff over and over and OVER!!!!!! it's annoying! where did all the shirts go that arnav wore from june - november? im pretty sure they still fit!!! and someone previously ranted about khushi's anarkalis - i totally agree with you. some of those suits on someone as slim as sanaya dont look right. i actually want sanaya to be wearing sarees since she's married. the first couple of days after her marriage, she wore the yellow saree and the red/pink one, and she looked so mature and it made her dialogues seem more intense. and her hair/wig...dear lord! if you look back at the holi episode, you cant really tell she's wearing a wig, and she looked beautiful. the poof in her hair due to the current wig looks blaahhh.

the only reason im still interested in the show is because i like barun, sanaya, and daljeet. if it were other actors, i wouldn't even be visiting the forum for the show.

and here my rant ends. im glad im not the only one frustrated with the way things are going in my favorite show.

I agree with the money matters.. But we have to remeber that star plus plays a major role in budget sanctions aswell ...the direction has picked up a notch since the last ME . And i am sure that the kid is out ..

Great post Mary!
I agree!
I have been waiting and waiting for the magic to return! And they keep coming up with these annoying side stories that are clearly fillers! And the acting is going OTT, especially Shyam, laxmi, mamiji, and bubbly! And earlier where Payash had a somewhat interesting track, now they have been reduced to annoying caricatures of themselves!
I forward thru them! And bubbly!

And though I love the actors and I used to love the characters, now, I am only hoping the actors can salvage something! Shoddy direction and story line! 😕

i have my own opinion on this.
i still rate ipkknd far higher than many tellies.
reason:
no melodrama
no scheming saas
no OTT acting
no deliberate parade of virtues
no typical suffering heroine
no typical nice hero
and most important of all
the amazing cast.
for this alone, despite many flaws I am an IPKKND fan and always will be
it has silly humour but that is harmless
it is irritating loses its way. but the intense moments like maaepisode are worth it
so i have my own feeling that this show will go places again

Mary, I agree with you. In fact, I have been feeling the storyline spiraling down for a couple of months now... After the holi episodes, they should have quickly moved on to clearing the MU instead of all the time they wasted on what they passed off as "comedy"!

I made a post a month or so ago... Didn't get any takers for it though😛

I agree @Mary... Seriously I mean I get the whole wearing cheap clothes, what I don't get is why does she have the same same kind of dress in all the colors of the rainbow? Who the hell does that anyway?

As for Arnav's clothes... We can't get rid of the waist coasts ... The guy is just skin and bones with out them... They add volume to him... However if I see him wearing the brown shirt one more time... I'll go crazy!

Hmmm story wise it's picking up... I'd say the story is better now than it was in the start even... Everything uptothis point was just arnav and khushi and no story development... But in the last few days I've seen a semblenence of a plot... I tuned in for the first time 'cause I want to know what's going to happen next and not because RVs give me goosebumps...
