A few months back, a gal had opened a post in the main forum saying 'I want my momeny back; This was not the show I had signed for'... Then I had felt that the post was created by a PHANGUL to vent out her frustration for her fav character being sidelined. But today I very well understand what she meant !!!
I would have been grateful to Mr.Dhokla, had he joined twitter on a certain june month and let us know that it was 'Didi ki saut' or 'Creepwa ka saut' and not IPKKND... I would have not bothered to quit watching BV to get hooked to this one !!
It was sometime in January when I had started feeling that the show is losing its charm and then with Lalit Mohan's exit and Mr.Dhokla's sudden increased 'dekhna hain toh dekho' attitude, the show not just lost its charm, but also its soul.
Now what I see is antim kriya of a dead show... Every character, from ASR to Khushi to Anjali is butchered to prove the importance of a certain creepwa !!! I was least interested in remarriage, but had a little hope that this might pave a way for a matured love story, but what I am seeing now is an immature teenage love story, where the mighty ASR is turning into a 17 year old college guy, happily smiling, laughing, mimicking and what not !!!
The creatives wanted to show how the mighty ASR will become Arnav for Khushi, while stay ASR to the world, but the execution is so so so damn pathetic that the audience is left confused, thinking has ASR really changed or is he replaced with a Shravan or Barun?!?! Though I understand that Arnav was probably meant to be this way, casual, at ease, chilled out and full of life, the change has to be gradual and NOT RUSHED. I cannot get up on a certain monday and see mighty ASR 'LAUGHING' or mimicking... I will need some time even believe it, let alone accept it; but are they giving that much needed time? Nope; reason? YOUR POINT 1. And then unfortunately, the male lead gets criticised for bring himself on screen, rather than the character. I wish people could understand that ASR is different, but Arnav and chote are not; they are normal human beings like us, like Shravan and like Barun. So obviously similarities shall creep in, but damn how can I forget he is the 'PUNCHING BAG' of the forum !!! and the execution is just giving more reasons for people to criticise.
All said and done, I hope in next three months, Gul and team gives a logical end to this show, closing all loops; ASR has to die and Arnav has to remain, and I hope this transformation is shown in a convincing way, else people will be left wondering, where did the character vanish, we once fell in love with ?!?!
ISS DEGRADATION OF LOVE STORY KO KYA NAAM DOON?!
