Forum we all cant leave..but I can relate to u totally...I am sure u are having fun in the wedding😃
Oh Uppaas how good it feels when I see my thoughts spoken by u and ur thoughts spoken by me. It's same here as drunk DV doesn't excites me and cliche storyline with run of the mill treatment doesn't leave any scene to be so desired and not to be missed.
We both are sailing in the same boat and just like you even I used to see its reruns atleast twice before finally going to sleep. And weekends which were long 3 days break, I used to spend with rewatch of entire weeks episodes. I still feel the same passion thinking of the fuse scene, or the Pune trip, or the haldi scene and many many more.
But after several trust issues, sacrifices for family, blank promises, insecurities...and what not I am not able to feel the flow of emotions between the couple. SaRuv whose old scenes created so many emotions in me, now make me completely blank. Their reunion is something I am hardly eager for as my attachment to SaRuv is dead.I simply don't feel their happiness or their pain...
Many say that this show is still the best served on TV...but for me TV don't exist...I restarted TV after 5-6 years only for this show and now when I have stopped watching this show TV is again always switched off...so it doesn't matters to me how relatively it is good as I have nothing to compare it to.
For me a love story has always been my craze and have watched lots of love stories and a diehard romantic I am, they have never faded. I still think about DDLJ scenes if I watch it the 50th or 60th time and still get mushy seeing the Church scene or Na jaane mere dil ko song...
I still feel for innocent Prem and Suman of Maine Pyar kiya and feel their first love when Prem puts ointment on Sumans feet with closed eyes and she allows him to open them...
I still love the way captain Raajveer of serial Left Right Left was falling badly for his prodigee Naina Singh and being her teacher he had to suppress his feelings and how when they surfaced they made for a sight. The love which nurtured out of adversity and getting stronger was such a soulful thing to connect them to me.
I can't also forget how in an old show Kora Kagaz which I watched when I was very young still I could not deny that even married woman has a right to start life afresh after being rejected by her husband. The way the show justified Poojas bonding with her husbands real brother which later resulted into deepest form of love...was so pious and real to be empathised. Why the society allowed her husband to leave newly wed Pooja right on the wedding night and started living with his Girlfriend and Pooja was fulfilling her Daughter in law responsibilities without husband.
How beautiful they showed that her husbands younger brother Ravi understood her pain and cared for her...motivated her to study ahead...fought with his parents to atleast give Pooja bare minimum respect...tried to bring back his brother a lot of times but failed badly...and how gradually caring for her out of human concern the most pious bond of selfless love developed.
The same story was again taken up in afternoon serial Bhabhi and there also the same story was repeated...and I felt for the pain of the couple stuck in adversity.
Co-incidentally Poojas husband was played by Amit Behl the great YG of JLZ. Pooja was played by Renuka Shahare the great actress of yester years and the kind hearted Ravi was played by handsome cricketer of old times Salil Ankola. The show was made by Asha Parekh the hit bollywood actress of 60's. Still many scenes of the show are in my memory...how great it was made.The plain jane Pooja made a amazing pair with tall and immensely handsome Ravi...
So I have liked all mushy teenage love stories and mature and hatke love stories too.
So for a die hard love stories fan...this love story being dead is a big thing...trust me it's a big thing for me...but I simply don't connect to SaRuv now which earlier was one of the best.
