Topic maker! You stole the words out of my mouth!

Sometimes I wonder whether it's really hard for an Indian serial to maintain a character after they fall in love? I mean isn't the underlying point that you fall in love with your original characteristics/traits intact? I rmbr watching the first week of the episodes and I loved the authority in Sonakshi's character! It was a treat to watch in all honesty! Also I don't think she has to know how to cook in order to be a nutritionist! There job is to truly just make charts and study properties of food. Nothing more really..

Coming to the immaturity displayed by Sonakshi's character! I agree, there really were moments where I was like "stop grab a hold of yourself. Go out and find a new job and move on" bcos in reality, one sided love stories do happen, you don't see majority of people mopping around and crying till 3am in the morning. One day, maybe two, by the third night you will be fine. Chill. I agree didn't appreciate the whole "my first love story ended without starting" phase, mainly bcos I truly think love isnt handled well in Indian tv shows (bcos what they feel isn't love and is infatuation. And yep I am a very critical person in life 🤪). She needs to move out of the Ishwari mansion and find a new job. It's high time that she left the place for at least her own satisfaction (bcos I rmbr an epi where she was talking to her dad about how much she loves her job).

Coming to her acting, she is not too bad in my opinion. It's more the dialogues and plot line that lets Erica down! But I am crossing my fingers (and toes) that the original headstrong, confident and disciplined Sona stands up soon... I truly do believe that Neha has more substance than Sonakshi, but I also believe Neha probably has the best character on the show. Ishwari er meh, it's kind of an periodical cycle that she wants to break and intervene on. I truly believe the CVs have done an amazing job when penning down Neha's character, it's very hard hitting and no matter how bitter she is in the show, she will always make my heart break at her complexity.


Coming to butchering of a character, Dev and Sona have both been butchered. No one in this world with a business to run like dev, ignores their commitments like he does. It's just random to see how a change like that occurs in one night? Already talked about Sona's butchering, Neha too to an extent really (fine line btwn manipulation and bitterness). I don't know why Indian tv serials think making a character fall in love, changes their attitudes and outlook towards life? It's a bit of a "W*F" in my opinion


(Highly controversial point here, please don't bash me.. I actually really liked the confession at a superficial glance, I truly did. Then it set in and one line. One part of the confession really irked me, maybe bcos it's wasn't a very well phrased statement, yet a lot of people seemed to have been appreciating it. Meep, I am just very critical in life and the statement was this "I love you like a man loves a woman." Bro what about a woman loving a woman, a man loving a man, a transgender loving their partner? No? At a superficial level I fangirled and hyperventilated. When it set in, I was majority disappointed. It's not like India has no LGBT community, it was just a very regressive statement in my eyes esp since this Ep aired like a couple of days after the Orlando massacre. And what really irked me was that Durjoy Dutta wrote the confession, I thought the dude was in with the times. Clearly not. Just my opinion on the confession scene, I expected more bcos this show has preached realism since it started. That notion is also dwindling. Peace)

Well I agree with most of ur points, from a strong independent confident career woman she has become a weepy dreamer.she's always hanging out at devs house with the intention of catchjng romantic moments. Sonakshi's character has really gone down after falling in love. This is a message to audience? Women how so ever smart they are become coy over romantic non ambitious girls once in love 😭

But I strongly disagree about erica. She has improved a LOT frm first episode i feel.hercrying weepy days were repititive but she acted well. Shaheer to kamal ka hai hi erica bhi aajkal barabar takkar deti hai 👏 its thescript which has problem

What a relief to see some one genuinely put forth the lapses in the show especially Sonakshi's Charecter and Erica's pathetic acting. Thank God you felt the same like I did. Yes. Sonakshi's Charecter has been butchered and how? I think even Natasha's Charecter has some integrity as she always is shown serious about her work though she is in love with Dev. And Dr Sonakshi Bose must have forgotten she has a great career sorry she used to have. Now all she does is what you explained in your post. I need not say anything more. Thank you for being genuine and straight while posting your views. Thank you very much.

Yeay !! Glad someone agreed to my POV ! Yes, I can agree with you on Natasha. She too was so composed and focused even if she were in love with Dev. She didn't make a big fuss about it either. Most of us here did not like her as she was coming in the way of Dev and Sona, but if you actually just take a look at her keeping aside all other complications, then she was a great girl !
