I agree opti, that milind should know the truth, I mean its the truth and it has to finally come out, so if not others, milind should know, but prachi being prachi cannot think of her happiness. And till date she has never fought for her happiness.

All she can think of is others, I guess she under- estimates the effect she has on others, I mean how impt she is to others.

She feels all the ppl are sad right now, but if they know abt Sukriti they will be more sad..

This has always been my belief Pooja. Prachi puts everybody ahead of her. It would be totally out of character for her to tell the truth to Milsi and ask Suki to tell it so that she can be in the clear.

What I am expecting from her to atleast not stop Suki from telling her brother. I feel she has no right to do so. Suki has to live with herself too, should'nt she? So far Suki has been absolutely thoughtless as to how her actions would affect others. She thought by hiding the truth she is sparing the pain for her brother and father. But if she were to realise how her raaz is affecting her brother's life, would she not want to attone for it? What right does Prachi have in stopping her? And if Suki reveals the raaz to Milsi and Prachi gets back her husband and Milsi gets back his sanity, what is the harm in it? Would that make her less of a person? All I am expecting her to do right now is not to stop Suki from cleansing her soul if she wishes to do so.

Please Priyanka, spare a thought to us poor mortals. No ONS please. One torture in KS was enough to last a life time. So far they have shown Milsi to be a much stronger character than Jai ever was. He resisted the temptation twice. In one he was too inabriated to do anything consciously (but he thinks he has) and in the other he has firmly yet humanely put off Ayesha. And here we are talking of a person he was once crazily in love with, infact literally grew up with. I hope he maintains that no matter how bad things get.

Prachi started of as a beautiful character, full of love, concern and sacrifice for all the people associated with her. She seemed to have abundant capacity to love and forgive even the people who wish her the worst. She had tremendous patience which literally wore down her adversaries. Of late, however, all her virtues seem to have the opposite effect not only on the characters in the show but also the viewers. Now why is that?

I always maintained that the writers have stuck to Prachi's characterisation and she was acting as she was expected to. But of late I get the feeling that her character is slowly but surely being butchered. This is why I feel so.

Do you remember Prachi very self righteously telling Neev that she will always stand by the truth when he tried to get Suki and Saket marry clandestinely? She was right in doing so and probably averted a huge catastrophe which would have errupted had the wedding taken place. But in this baby raaz case where is her sense of righteousness, her support for truth? She should have asked Suki to confide in Milsi long back when she found out about the baby. She allowed the baby to languish in an orphanage. Lets forgive her for her folly because ultimately she brought him into the house, though for not the right reasons.

Later when things came to a head and Ayesha exposed her version of the raaz she herself could not tell Milsi anything because it was Suki's raaz. She put Milsi through torture by claiming that the baby was hers, all to protect Suki. Lets give her a margin for that too since as I said earlier it was not her raaz to reveal.

But now that so much has happened and her plans to give a home to Ritwik is now in jeopardy since with baba hearing the 'truth' she knows that she will surely be thrown out with the kid, why is she still bent on protecting the raaz? Who is benefitting from it? Not herself, nor her husband, nor Neev who has wrongly been accused (and here her support for truth rings really hollow. Why should an innocent man take the blame? And the deeds he is up to, to avenge his reputation loss, is doing her husband no good either). And I am sure Suki is not benefitting from it either. The girl could not even grieve properly for the supposed loss of her son. And living this lie all her life, she will feel all the more guilty, especially if she realises that she was the cause for her brother and sis-in-law breaking up and her son will be languishing some where, with Prachi raising him single handedly (mostly in poverty I guess since she does not appear smart enough to make a living).

The short point I want to make is what is the 'truth' that Prachi stand for as far as this secret goes?

The next big statement she had made in another context which again rings hollow in this case is what she told Milsi in the waterfall scene, that she considers her marriage as her life . Now all that she has been doing so far raises serious doubts as to what marriage means to her. If the respect she shows for it through her actions is anything to go by, then all I can say is that she does not respect her life very much, does she? I would have tolerated her silence and acceptance of blame so far because Suki was not there and in her absence she cannot take the liberty of revealing the truth. Now that she is back why is she still insisting that Suki should maintain the same silence? Is Suki's marriage more important than hers? If she still wants to protect Suki from Alaap's black mail, Baba's scorn and pain and Saket's rejection if the truth comes out, what is the argument for protecting the raaz from Milsi, especially if by doing so her marriage and his peace and happiness are at stake?

For me the creatives are butchering the beautiful character called Prachi, all with the intention of heightening the drama element and portraying the extent of her sacrifice. Instead of invoking sympathy for her, this is only making her character more repulsive by the day.


Optimist, I too feel she has been butchered. Prachi I knew is no more, dead as the Dodo bird. Creative wanted to get this track rolling at any cost, and only today I realized that the biggest cost was not common sense, but Prachi's character. Your list (post) is very fine as always but I feel it's not complete. There's something missing in her character's journey to devastation but I can't recall what for now😕 Anyway congratulations, Kayamath creative. You have successfully killed her for me.

I don't think her character has been butchered but they have maintained the consistency of it till today.
She loved Neev did she said that to her parents? no .She agreed to marry varun for Fathers happiness.
She gave Ayesha money Anybody knows that ?No
She sacrificed Neev to save him from Ayeshas revenge did she tell him?no
Her father was murdered. she dint said that to anybody except milind. .
She married Milind to save her family even though they opposed it.Did she told them?no
She put the medicine into the juice for milinds good health.Milind came to know that only after doctor told him.She wrote a letter to save MIlinds contract.But dint tell him.If she had told, milind would not have done that act atall.
When milind asked her how that cut occurred on her finger,did she speak ?no She just looked at him.
Did she inform milind that she had called her chawl friends for janmashtami celebrations for his happiness?no.
She knew ayesha burnt her room, made her walk alone during picnic but dint told milind when he asked her.
In temple also She dint utter a single word when milind said he is breaking all his relationships with her in front of holy fire, eventhough she had come to stop the marriage. Milind came to know only after sukruthi told him.
Even during waterfall scene eventhough she was hysterical she dint open her mouth against ayesha or sukruthi.
Till today she has not told anyone about her good actions by herself.So how can u expect her to open her mouth when sukruthis upbringing by milind will be questioned,.When her familys respect and honour will be at stake if the secreat comes out?{Even now also nothing much difference is there 🤢 😡 }
As we all love milind character for its consistency so why are we bashing Prachi for her consistency in character..
And according to me the strength of prachis character is equal to that of milind eventhough it appears weak. Not everyone will have so much patience and tolerance that Prachi have.No one will do so much for others happiness even by puuting themselves unders so much torture. I really admire her for that. Even it is a fictional character.
But ya i agree creatives should have come up with a better story line instead of this crappy one .Hope this track ends soon. 😊 😛 .

This is my POV regarding Prachis character 😊 😛

Thanks sweety for putting across your point of view so convincingly. I agree with every word you said. Prachi has always been the sacrificing girl who never blew her own trumpet. I have always supported her for that although I did not agree with a dimwitted actions. But the point I am making here is very different.

I do not want her to go about declaring what she has done for Sukruti. That will be grossly out of character. What I am saying is that she has no business stopping Suki from telling Milsi the truth in the name of family honour. If Suki has a conscience (which I am sure she has unless I am totally wrong), would she not die of guilt for seperating her brother and sis-in-law (the two people who have done the most for her)? So why should she not want to cleanse herself and bear her soul to her brother? If in the process Michi's relationship is saved that is a by product. But it also lifts a huge load of Suki's shoulder if she is able to unburden herself to her brother. By interfering with Suki's decision, she is not only sealing her fate but also not allowing Suki to live in peace (which in any case she will not get till the burden is offloaded to Saket). We can come to that later.

See in life you cannot be good to all the people all the time. If you are good to one, it may affect another. In this case it is clearly affecting not one but many lives. Milsi's, Neev's, her's, Ritwik's and even Suki's (the one person she thinks she is saving). All I want her to do is not to interfere with what Suki wants to do now. Let the girl make her mistakes and learn the hard way. This mollycoldling is not getting anybody anywhere.

As far as the character butchery goes, my take is Prachi is going against everything she professed to stand for be it truth or for that matter the importance of marriage in her life.

Sweety82, that's a good post and I can't deny the truth in it.

However for me last night's episode sealed her fate. She dared to care about the secret in front of Ritwik's body. She thought it's very very necessary for Sukreti to keep her secret even when Ritwik is dead. That's simply heartless for me. I have to admit that from the beginning the secret means nothing for me, but when even after the baby was supposed to be dead she made it such a big matter, she hurt me with that. We have this saying, a full cauldron of pure milk would be ruined by a single drop of dark palm sugar. That single action was enough to ruin her for me, even when it's more likely that I simply lost my patience with her after a long while.

Again that's a good post and I got your point. I'm sorry if I sound like shoving my opinion at you. Not my intention at all hehe 😊

I have watched KS for sometime before and now KYM. What I observed is that writers and creatives are not consistant with their work. I dont understand if we can remember previous dialogue and expect a character to live with it, why can't the people who wrote those dialogue remember and develop story accordingly? here, even though it is continous story, they do treat each episode seperately. It is OK to accomodate actors problem or whatever and adjust the storyline but they should stick with the character and what's been said by the characters. The way thigs happen on K-shows,it looks like they don't have to do anything with previous events or important conversation. I am preety much sure that these creatives know this very well since they have been making multiple shows for many years. As you said they are lazy and don't want to come out of their comfort zone.
Anyways, now I think we should keep our brain and feelings far far away while watching this show. it will save us from this never ending torture.

Finally, SOMEONE agrees with me. I have been screaming hoarse for the past 2 days to get this point across

Prachi's character has not been massacred, but her unrealistic goodness has its own pros and cons. When it acted in favor of the couple, people applauded her overdone modesty and sacrificing self; however, when it's causing some trouble in the MICHI paradise, people are defaming her for the same

I am sorry, but a person cannot change their personality just because the track has taken a sad turn. That's how Prachi was, that's how she is, that's how she will be...if you don't like her now, you never liked her before and will not like her in the future

I stand by my fictional sis

As for why Prachi prevented Suk from telling Milind....once M knows, Baba will also become aware of it, and P is worried about his health condition. If he can fall sick thinking that R is P's son, he might very well die once he realizes that his daughter bore an illegitimate child.

I hope that Baba is kept away from this truth, although M should become aware of it soon
