Hello. You are a brave young person! To come on a forum which had blind devotion for the leads, no matter how irrational they might be, and make a negative comment on them, needs courage :-) well done!


I have not read the 18 pages of comments but I am quite sure that much of it must not be complimentary :-)


I wonder what the reaction would have been if the male lead had not been "hot"? Though I don't find him hot personally, but many do see to think. Erica I think is pretty.


But the characters? I agree human beings are not black and white but grey but Dev is spineless. He is like a child whose favourite toy is taken away and instead of sorting it out, he sulks in a corner, throwing a petulant fit and whining away.


Sona, I can perhaps still understand. In a fit of anger and a bid to move on, she decided to get engaged to Ritwick. But she is guilty of bringing shame on her parents and putting their dignity at stake. She is also guilty of being unfair to Ritwick and making a spectacle of him and his family, but sometimes we do not think rationally.


Ishwari while I feel is unreasonable and insecure, I have seen enough mothers who are possessive about their sons and many sons who are unable to say anything to their mothers even if they know they are in the wrong. Marriages get destroyed by this tug and pull between mother and daughter-in-law and its not only the mom-in-law's fault at all times.


I do feel like whacking Sona for making a mess of everyone's lives and Dev for being such a cry baby And Sona does not realize, that it is her family and her who would suffer because of her stupidity. Society, sadly, doe snot take the man to task but will point fingers at her family, her upbringing, the spectacle that she made while Dev will walk away unscathed.


I would be very disappointed if Ishwari now agrees to the marriage and Sona says yes. Cos the decision has not been because Dev convinced his mom and made her change her mind, but made by Iswari finally capitulating seeing her son waste himself and her brother, bless him, trying to knock some sense into her.


Dev has had no contribution in changing her mind except to get drunk, behave like a wastrel and make a scene in other people's home and make a mockery of their dignity. If Sona is compelled by her love to say yes, after all this, then she and Dev deserve each other ! :-)


There is no need to generalize one view for the entire forum
Offcourse there are members who might have so called blind devotion for the leads but there are many who look beyond the hot ML and pretty FL. Just go thru the countless posts each day on how we discuss the show, flaws of the character, story becoming more dramatic than realistic with each episode. This forum has always encouraged discussion whether its appreciation for the show and the characters or bashing the writers for the inconsistent characters or story.

And I do agree since the chulha drama...show has moved towards OTT drama n all characters are being butchered bcoz of that. Ishwari for me has become irredeemable and any amount pf good she will do now will never suffice for her past actions, manupilations n insults. Sona, my character, just becoming so blind in love that she is not even thinking about her family. I am sure she would have to put in a lot of efforts to pacify her family. Dev's drunken behavior is just too much OTT an is in contrast to his character shown so far.

I hope writers view the intial promos again n try to bring back the show to subtle and matured emotions, which was the reason we all got hooked to the show.

I totally understand your frustration. But, frankly this is how drama shows are. It's a two edged sword, you start liking the story and then drama has to be there.. high points or whatever these things are. Mellowed version doesn't work with Indian audiences.. No matter how much they love Pak shows and season oriented shows, we can't do without hyped drama.

I also understand where this frustration is coming from. The promos and the serial is stark different as of now. In the promo it was pretty much clear, that both the leads are on the same side very well aware of the mother's dislike. They looked ready to face it together. It showed Dev's subtle yet steely stand to be in relationship. Sonakshi supporting him with grace and resolve. The story kind of took a drastic turn in the show.. Here the leads are struggling to be with each other itself in the first place.

But on realistic notes, once a disapproving parent enters the scene, the couple does shake a bit. To get a ground again for themselves. This is heightened here for TRP.

I haven't seen the initial episodes but from the posts that I have read, I came to know that this show followed one cliched concept. Ignoring the obvious. Dev not reading his mother's expressions. No one seeing Dev-Sonakshi's dreamy expressions.. hehe.. Bose family not seeing Sonakshi's struggling expressions in every Ritik related conversations. Ritik not seeing Sonakshi's expressions in her engagement. I mean anyone would know something is wrong when people around them are having so doomed appearances.🥱

About Dev's breakup.. that was one hell of a hasty decision. He could have just told her to leave, for now and stay away for few days till his mother is well. That would have been true to the promo. But I guess, they have showed mother-son as too hyper since beginning if I am not wrong. About Sonakshi, that was stupid to call him in the engagement. And wrong to have used Ritik that way. The guy, like any unfortunate parallel lead, got bashed left, right and center, for no reason.

Honestly, keep aside logic. Hehehe.. I applied it way too much while watching Sadda Haq. Same writer. But this time this show is loads better than that crap. I have been watching it from few days now, I don't feel the pain for the leads like literally, but the acting here is stupendous. Though inconsistent, the characters are far more worthy of discussion than the leads of that show. Dev needs help no doubt. They won't address that particular issue. Again No doubt 😆 The leads are meant to be together. Hatrick of No Doubt. 😆

But yes, parents can be your Achilles heel. In Dev's case he has now two Achilles heels 😆 He can't let go of his mother, he can't let go of his girl friend. Twisted stuff. I don't deny that such cases might not exist. Any thing can exist in today's world. I would just wish to see him redeem. But if not, then also, the show will go on.. 😆

People do shitty things, insane things.. they cannot be pardoned for that but may be that's how ironical things get when the ultimate moment comes in front of you. This was a real life scenario.

People do hyped drama .. this is TV life scenario.. 😆

its better to stay away from such people.
A well educated person like Dev who have seen hardships of Life , this behaviour really comes as off shocking and weird .

When this show was started the Initial promos depicted a Matured break-up where both the parties had accepted and were being shown as Matured people who
are trying to find a way as a team.
and Now the same thing is shown in such Gory way , that it is making me puke and cringe ..

Just for some Drama sake , the characters has been ruined badly ..such that I no more feel sympathy to any niether Dev nor Ishwari and now toh not even Sonakshi.
In reality a sane person like Sonakshi (as shown earlier)would run away from such Mother-Son duo...but now same Sonakshi is being shown at her Dumb best .
what's up with challenging bf and inviting him to engagement .
I am sorry , but she just appears same to those numerous TV female leads who to show their feminist Avatar jaan bhujke do Ungli.
The dignity , Integrity of character is questionable here .

I was interested in this show to see how they deal with Ishwari's insecurity but what is being shown is absolute W*F**kery type.
In past few episodes , Its like the show got derailed majorly and i see no way of character redemption of Dev .
Makers will probably find easy route and spoilers do suggest they have went that way . but sorry whatever Dev did is just not Pardonable .

I am one of those who contribute to whatever little TRP this show is getting , so I have full right to express my POV.
And I'll be glad if members rather then posting mocking/snarking gif's or LOL-ing or stating that that leave watching the show if you dont like ..yada yada ...be same and matured enough to participate in debate/discussion and if they cant do then follow your own advice i.e
be in your paradise bubble and love your jodi.

Promos n story is in stark contrast😆 I actually felt bad for leads in promos but now feeling sorry for myself 😆
people dont like someone bursting their bubble and if you hv diff opinions you should not visit forum and if you do then you are spreading negativity😆
mujhe GIFs acche lage 😉 and advice toh mai kisi ki nhi leti 😎

Even for me mother's angle was interesting and i was intrigued to see how it will be dealt wid but "hv no words left to say" repetitive lagega 😆

I applaud your patience to be bluntly honest about the show. I agree with you 100👍🏼

I dont want to repeat the replies which is already on this thread.

I stopped watching the show on a daily basis when I realized the break up was one-sided not mutual - that instant I was put off with the show. I watch 10 episodes in one go, makes it much better to bear. I will watch episodes 5th september to 16 september in one go. Promo mein kuch, Dikhaya kuch is my tag line, with the all the replies I give.
I put likes where required I want to quote all the replies I admired but that is silly (too many replies). I am not good with words to express so much, my disappointments have been expressed very eloquently in this thread.

Just to clarify I admire DevAskhi, and Shaheer-Erica, at the same time I can see beyond them.

The ones who say why watch the show and come to the forum to crib, are actually behaving like Ishwari who cannot handle a DIFFERENT perspective other than their's. Just because Shaheer is playing the character Dev does not mean what ever Dev does is fine! Just because Sonakshi happens to be the ML's love interest does not mean she can play with Ritwik's heart. If you have a strong dislike for Ishwari's behaviour then you should also be respectful towards the forum reaction on Dev and Sonakshi's behaviour.

I see so many posts on Ishwari and Ritwik mostly negative which is pretty unfair!

Before the break up all was fine right ? There were no 2 sets of groups, its after the break up these 2 groups emerged so sharply why ???


I agree with the bold


looking beyond the leads hardly happens as people fail to differentiate between actor and character and that is the problem
you can drool on actors and praise them to sky but with characters atleast be honest, but ppl hardly do that-may be they think saying bad about character=saying bad about actor

@ Bold: Asmita am too shock @ Blue..

Well whatever your POV for the show i can understand and respect as well.

@ TM over here is criticizing almost every character, content and what not is going now over here. It is almost like I don't like YHM but will make a post and criticize each and every character stating this is my different POV. Yes I have used gifs instead of writing long essays , but Did I cross line of respect? Did I get personal ? Did I comment which is hurtful ? Well that is my way of expressing my pov. Is it necessary to explain things in essays. Did I mention in my post- about anti love of jodi fans or something.


Surprisingly you want matured discussion by getting personal. 😳

Although I hardly see you over here, so let me tell you I have myself criticize Dev character in many posts . So no one can tag me - blind fan or whatever - am sure regular members knows me this much.

Hopefully you will stick to content/character of the show only instead of getting personal about anyone. I am deeply hurt by your post more than anything else. Not expected this from you.

Respectfully Reported ..

P.S. @ GM : Time to come to this forum ..


pls care to explain where I got personal? I wud really like to know 😳
Is criticizing characters getting personal? 😲
and I hv not criticize all characters, i hv spoke about 3 main characters who are imp part of this stupid track
I wud love to come here again n again but kya karo tym hona chahiye aur phir I am lazy 😳
by the way, my hardly coming to forum has anything to do with making post? I mean if I visit daily, I will get the license to state my POV? #JustAsking

Sorry for interfering, but can i ask something?
U said RS disappointed you, you didn't expected that from her so i guess you take her as your friend,
if it is so, then i am shocked that you have reported her for just asking to post views insist of using GIF 😲
p.s she didn't get personal, she has said that general as many are saying if u dont like leave the show

I like this show and will be very happy if it stays the number one show on IF. Just want to vent out that for the sake of drama unnecessary twist has been given to this track. We have Dev behaving the same way he behaved when he wanted Sona as a nutritionist for Ishwari, harassing Sona for his personal vendetta.. and I thought he was a changed man after falling for Sona.. so much for matured storytelling. It was going great until their break up. Ishwari trying to get Sona married asap, Sona saying yes for marriage to Ritwick but telling Dev I am ready to marry you if you ready to marry me..Dev ghooming like Devdas and Darr wala Rahul around Sona.. Ritwick playing KKHH wala Salman Khan has left me trying to search for maturity in the story with a magnifying glass.. Where is the phase I was waiting for? The phase that the initial promos promised?

Yes the writers will sort out all this but what they are showing currently goes against the brilliant glimpses they had shown us before. I have seen characters like Dev before, I have seen characters like Sona before. I wanted to watch something different I wanted Dev and Sona to act differently. Only shocks need not be eye openers. A evil, Drunk Dev or a Crying Sona ready to marry Ritwik on the rebound were not necessary for the story. I am disappointed that the story took the easy way rather than going for a more matured outlook to their situation.

Being critical of the story, the characters or acting does not make us bashers. There are many people who have put forth a counter arguments to the post rather than telling others to stop watching etc etc which I appreciate.

you are brilliant at explaining Rav 👍🏼 thoda mujhe sikhao😆

Quite glad that at least KRP is giving fodder to everyone to talk and discuss about story, characters, screenplay rather than other places where there is zilch to discuss !! Quite a lot of gross content is as it spewed across the screens so if people are talking about KRP then it shows its keeping them engaged.

I see posts analyzing characters rather than just ATs' and FFs' . That is quite a feat I must say.


It is not the most talked about show for nothing .

i prefer analyzing characters rather than drooling on actors 😳
