totally agree with all of the above mentioned points 👏
The idea of bringing our epics to today's generation by remaking the old classics is not a bad intention, but the old classics had perfect scripts and dialogue which were thoroughly researched by gifted mytho-makers like RS and BRC which did not need to be changed one bit. It should've been easy to just follow the material provided my the old classics, add some glamorous but talented people like Aditi and Meghan in so "modern" viewers would also enjoy, and update the special effects... but no, they had to show off their "creativity" and give us all that "Sagar Puran", from countless unneeded scenes of their newly invented character Keshni, to the over-extension of Krishna's leaving Gokul, to "tagda" Vasudev, to soap-ish insight into the lives of ramdom villagers in Gokul...
Sometimes their "Sagar Puran" was cute and had some deep social messages hidden in it, but more often it was distracting and commercial type; totally inconsistent with the ideals establihed in the scriptures they claimed to use as sources. They found such great talents in Dhriti, Aditi, Meghan, and Zaib who made their sometimes painfully weak writing not only watchable, but enjoyable for viewers. But in the end that couldn't make up or the damage their pride did. While they started in the spirit of Krishna Bhakti, they ended up devoted to TRPs and absorbed in their own convoluted katha - ignoring the sacred scriptures, their father's true creativity, and common sense has led to their downfall.
however I still have some hope that Colors will suffer low TRPs for choosing a possible Kekta trainwreck over JSK, like 9x did when they showed KHMK, and bring the show back in a few weeks - by which time the writers will also have learned their lesson and prepared scripts worthy of their talented cast and the legacy of excellence which RS left behind.
Completely agree with u Lola (red colored lines)!! 👏 👏
