@Hi all,
Have patience with me as this may turn out to be a long post. I joined India Forums about 5 yrs ago. I was a silent member of many forums and was for a time a active participant on DMG forum. I regretted joining IF after seeing DMG forum as I felt it was very childish. That was the reason I steered away from any more shows on Indian TV. I first saw Barun on DMG but he didn't have any role beyond 10 episodes. He was not the one I would say who left an impression on me. I caught Baat Hamari on/off but still was not impressed. Like wise I watch MJHT solely on recommendation of my office friend and even though I absolutely loved the title song for the funkiness and upbeat music, none of the leads did leave any impression on me including Sanaya.
Last year I tuned into the channel SP during the Guest house rescue Maha episode and let's say I was hooked. Hooked onto Barun and Sanaya M&B storyline. The leads had passion, the show had angst and main thing I felt was the serial was not dragging. I was hooked and now when I look back, I can say I became borderline fanatic for this show. The show impressed me with the deft story telling and the characterizations for the lead. I kept up with the story even at its worst pathetic tracks but I have decided to be wise and spend my time in a better constructive way. I would have still watched the show and I am 99% sure the fangirl in me would watch the show till Barun is there but I am trying my level best to get on the detox mode because I have realized that there is nothing but heart break if I continue on this show.
Arnav and Khushi clicked because they were soul mates. Soul mates are the ones who you connect to and who completes you. Now if the creatives are trying to show that Arnav marries Sheetal in order to accept Aarav and Khushi moves on in life with another man, then it is something I can't stomach. Just finish the show and get over it. Seems like channel wants to have the story on air and it is channel's idea for shitty sheetal track. In that case I have to say the channel people are more foolish than the PH which wanted to close the show with the leads Barun and Sanaya intact. Whatever it is I don't want to taint my love story for Arnav and Khushi in this way. The channel may want to spin a Ekta Kapoor story but I can't stand it.
I enjoyed this forum more than the show itself. I absolutely adored Sari's SG thread, IP REDUX thread and Honeypriya's Crooner posts along with millions of other posts I used to read every day here. I made some very good friends on this forum and the main thing was I liked the discussions on the story, the characters and the situations in a dignified manner. Many of the posts written here were much more beautiful than the episodes that were aired. I honestly don't know if I fell in love with the forum due to the amazing serial or it was vice-versa. But I can say for sure that the amazing insights in the posts I have read over this forum actually enhanced my passion for this show. Wish the creatives know why the audience loves this show and stop doing a Ekta with this serial.
To all my friends on this forum Ash, Biraj, Sangha, Polkadots, Diya, Vee, sugar, Sari, Priya, Anjali, Divya, Farah and many more others I can't explain the amazement I used to feel whenever I used to read and reply to the posts here. I felt as if I were connected with all of you and that is what I am going to miss the most. Serials may come and go but the friendships I made over this forum I will always treasure. I can't say how sad I am feeling now to finally say I am calling quits over this serial. But hope we all will meet at some other forum though this time I am vowing of not getting attached to any Indian serial. I think I will slowly phase out of IF too like Barun as IPK is the only forum I visit.
To everyone here who interacted with me here, I would say it was a great pleasure knowing all of you. Till we meet again it is adios from me.
P.S:- I will probably be there till Payash say good bye which may be next week and chalo I am happy that at least one couple walked in sunset hand in hand. Pity that it was not my Arnav - Khushi.
I agree detox is the need of the hour
But Sarada i still believe the channel and PH cannot and will not dig their own grave and separate ArHi for ever by getting new partners for them...channel insists on keeping IPK on air coz it knows the popularity ArHi/SaRun enjoy! They know that ArHi together equates to IPK the brand!!
If not anything else they will never get a new male character for our jhalli and the story will always be about arnav and khushi! Let's hope for the best...at least for some more time. At least till ArHi sort out this latest mess called sheetal and her bitwa!
