Well hello to everyone reading this. Was a silent reader for sometime in this forum unfortunately the story went downhill completely therefore avoided any discussions but this shutdown news & Ml vs Fl thing going on from few days forced me to come out of my hideout & give my two cents for my mann ki shanti.
So yeah let's Start the topic Gungun vs Anubhav's love & sacrifices.
Although both of them are idiots still I find Gungun's action justified for the reason that whatever stupidities she does atleast she do it out of love to protect Anu & his family,. her intentions are never revengeful or to hurt him(she didn't even hated/accused them after Dr's death) and on the other side all of Anubhav's decisions are outcome of his jealousy, anger, ego & to intentionally hurt gungun to get back at her. He doesn't use his brain has zero trust on gun infact believes Rkc's words more than Gg remember when Rkc instigated him that gg pushed her & during Gg Rv wedding, without any second thought he went on to humiliate gg both the times and lets not forget sangeet night when he was singing praises for his psycho soulmate to be. Kya kaha tha durghatna ghatne se tal gyi.
He is damn possessive that he looses his mind at the sight of Rv near Gg goes in hulk mode assuming the worst things about her, was complaining about gg marrying fraud Rv but what about him living with Rkc who started Gg insult spree from the time she entered & learned about Anugun's marriage being fixed. He knew She wanted to take gg's place in his life, her violent nature slapping gg & all pathetic things she accuses her on daily basis in K house is not hidden from him either still he's ready to move on with this girl (ditching dil wali biwi) but if Gg chose Rv who doesn't even know half the things both villans did than it's a grave sin in Scientist's eyes. What kind of hypocrisy is this? Hates off to his intelligence & selective sanskaars which jumps out of the window where he is allowed to live dual life with two wives but Gg must nibhao all rules of a patnivarta naari.(he used to say no shareef insaan can tolerate if his wife has BF aur ab khud legal biwi k sath rehta hai)
Anubhav's character lacks depth & consistency off late he appears to be very superficial. Knowing how dangerous Rv is his protective streak should have hit autopilot mode itself to save gg from ruining her life. She chose him or not should not be the condition to save her but no he gave up on her immediately after her fake act.
That's why I feel Gg is definitely better in this scenario than Anu who's love & trust shakes easily according to situations. GG's love is selfless protective and Anu's love is possessive, conditional.
Coming to second point Gg's self-sacrificing/self destruction mode which is maha annoying still going by ongoing plot what else can we expect from her.. she can't snatch someone else's husband after maker's declared rkc as legal wife. That's why I don't mind her sacrifice cause she's only getting insulted through this affair & returning what doesn't belong to her is not wrong. she has no haq on scientist as of now.
Btw being sacrificing & forgiving is nothing new it has been Gg's inherent nature since her introduction.. for Bua's sake she ignored Rkc's nonsense and was ready to calloff her wedding when she suspected Akriti loves Anu. It goes overboard now cause she's in guilt trip. But of course there are more reasons
▪︎ The importance of a happy loving family that she values alot as she almost lived a lonely life with a busy workaholic father. Kulshreshtha's (in her eyes) were the perfect they filled that void in her life & than suddenly one horrible night changed everything love turned into hate & she lost everything including her only savior her father. The family who called her Laxmi accuses her to be a homebreaker now. Imagine a 21 year old lonely girl with no parental figure(Bua is useless) torn between love & guilt getting knocked down from every side & than when head of that family threatens to kill himself Its obvious she'll step back because 1)she & Anu both will never want Buddha to harm himself & 2)only ppl with a good heart would not want to be a reason of someone else's misery/hurt anyone or snatch something that doesn't belong to them(giving away Anu thus makes sense).. & yes this differentiates her from Akriti's negative selfish character. She can't jamao haq on Anu because neither he's taking any strong stand nor the family is ready to accept her , putting up a fight now will be of no use, kkis story will become somewhat like Jasmine fateh story in Udaariyan.
▪︎ Also after Dr Rid death Gg lost the only person who loved her unconditionally who was her protector & guiding star in darkness. With him gone she's a complete loner she's an option not anyone's priority now. She's not getting that unconditional love she used to receive earlier but since she understands only that she's giving the same to Anubhav that's how hopelessly she's in love with him to not think about herself selfishly (so unlike Rkc again).
▪︎ And when she confides in the only remaining family member BUA she only receives lengthy dialogs and no help to come out of that problem. Rv blackmailing, sindoor wedding, Mumbai trip even Akriti's selfishness & manipulations before Anukriti marriage Bua knew everything yet did nothing to stop three lives from getting destroyed. She could have done so much to save Gg but she became a useless spectator watching everything from the side.. its sad that nobody considered Gg's mental condition, sometimes as viewer when you look at how her life went upside-down after that party & she ended up alone in a big house your heart goes out for her. The full of life girl Papa ki pari has noone to call her own in the entire world the thought of it is spinechilling. Only a sadist writer can write depressing story like this.
▪︎ Golu chachu & Gg's bond could have been utilized after Dr's exit as they shared a great bond earlier but makers wasted that opportunity as well to isolate gg completely from everyone. With noone to relyupon she follows her heart and heart doesn't know what is wrong what is right.
As for forcing her decisions well Anu himself is an indecisive spineless character who flips sides everyday. He had no courage to accept his mistakes & come clean to his family. Be it marriage or divorce his lives decisions are taken by clown family & he surrender infront of them after a little protest which isn't enough to change their minds. Only time he used his own brain he messed up 3 lives. Married both girls, was chasing gg like roadside Romeo, had full blown affair with her behind his family & legal wife's back & now again don't trust her. All this while this confused prani never mentioned to divorce Rkc & save everyone including himself from torture instead he's ready to take Rkc's responsibility, her presence in his life & bedroom as his wife except Tann Mann which he write off on Gg's name. Shaadi na hui property ka batwara ho gya adha adha share distributed to both biwis. Shows name should be mix of both shows of PH Ek Pati ghum hai 2 biwion ke pyar mein kabhi Gungun kabhi akriti.
Coming to the end of this lonng thread all blame for failure of this hindi version lies on makers & creatives shoulder inko copy karna hi nahi aya. Marathi version is so good I've seen some episodes & here they made it unbearable with too much toxicity. Characters that were liked in original series were turned into mute unimportant sideys & Rkc Rv who had minimalistic value got maximum screen time, and now there is no way to take uturn & save this sinking ship they don'teven look interested in it. Failing the project with pre-prepared story in hand & a really loveable jodi to pull the crowd, whoever took the call to change the theme from romcom to toxicity & negativity winning in the show was overconfident idiot. Ruined a good show.
Story is in loop mode since 4 months. Rkc's truth never got exposed without which story can't move forward. All her crimes were covered up & forgotten they made her like the ideal bahu material for maha sanskari Kshits where all seniors kiss her feets she got legal wives position plus everyone's support gets max ss, better costumes, superior position in the house she can slap gg anytime, insult GC, make kanjoos BP dance on her pinky finger spend money lavishly 2 suhaagraat setup in a family who couldn't afford to buy an inverter before(that scene when Maya came & Sargam brings a hand fan still make me laugh out loud btw she was so right about this fatichar hypocrite family but Ridhu & Asanskari scientist shushed her badly that time).
Any new viewer watching the show will feel Rkc is real fl with the position & ss she has in story & yesha is sidey character you know how Gul sidelined Aditya's role & made Aryan ML opp Imlie,. You never know next big twist can be Anukriti are real endgame.. Anugun wala humare sath mazaak hua tha.
Show is on ventilator breathing it's last and makers are still shoving their favorite most nuisanced written character to our TV screens. There is nobody in their team to knock some sense in their khali dimag that audience watch shows for leads & here these dumb writers turned vamp into lead and demoted actual leads into sinners doing EMA (wo bhi kya do din mein pakde gye) FL on guiltrip crying since 4 months & ML switching between rebellious ashiq to sanskari beta mode every week. How will ppl connect? who will watch such senseless plot? the ff writers here write hundred times better stories.
If this show had research team to collect feedback through sm they could have saved it after shaadi fiasco also by showing anugun marriage legal & proving second invalid.. Rkc's reality getting exposed slowly, Anugun & original golu gang teaming up together chupchup ke romance teasing by Gteam thus bringing back comedy in the show alas they chose the toxic route. Sometimes I wonder did they hired kids to write the story or what.
Anyways lets end it here im feeling embarrassed looking at the size of this thread I wrote an essay all quota of four months is finally out well cheers to those who read it till the end. would love to hear your response. Ignore typos if any I'm too lazy to check now
