What a brilliant Post👏 I always look forward to yours especially whenever my morale is down regarding the show. Agree to everything you have stated.

Thanks so much! I tend to post when I don't see anyone expressing my point of view on the show, which may make me come off as somewhat contrary, but there it is! 😆

Your lines about Sona better be a Bose than becoming Dixit is spot on !! Yes this family needs a person like Sona to understand each other and their feelings and stop living like individual islands inside a family.

I have no complaints about Dev whatsoever because when he tries his best to give the best of both world he is ought to be sandwiched 😆

Haha, I agree 100%! He has so much to learn about balance and compromise. So like a man not to understand why everyone he loves can't just hold hands and dance in the garden together. 😆 That's precisely why I love Sona's entry in his life. Ishwari -- and by default his sisters -- let him get away with this blissful oblivion, but Sona holds him to a higher standard... she doesn't hesitate to ask the tough questions and demand answers!

Now I so agree about Ishwari, infact hers and Neha's are the two characters which strongly pulled into this series apart from leads magical chemistry. I have understood, marveled , astonished at the intrinsic layers of shades the makers have given her till yesterday except for that prenup signature.

Thats one incident I couldn't fathom. It was like a deliberate attempt by the CVs to make her look black completely. I did understand her insecurities and need to protect her Son's hard earned livelihood but my only grudge is "Why by deception?" I could have taken anything other than this route ..but why this way? Would love to read your input on this when time permits because you are one of the few in the forum having a clear perspective about the show for its real essence 😊'

Neha has been my favourite from day one of the show! And Ishwari has been so beautifully written that I could never see this show as just a love story between Dev and Sona.

As for the pre-nup, I hope you don't mind if I borrow some of my own words from another post of mine. Of course, this is just my interpretation, but it makes sense to me, and hopefully to others as well!

The Pre-nup Fiasco

This was definitely one of Ishwari's lowest moments, and that's saying somethng by this point! Yet, along with the callousness and deception, I also see a woman with deep-seated anxiety and paranoia when it comes to money. It's not necessarily that she doesn't trust Sona, or doesn't believe in her and Dev's love -- she doesn't have a choice by this point -- but she is not willing to take ANY risks in this regard. This is a family that has seen dire poverty, and has been kicked to the streets. Ishwari took the brunt of this misfortune, trying her very best to sheild her children, think in the long term, and bring her family to a position of unshakeable independence... and she did. This is not only Dev's money, but also her life's work that is on the line, and while I do not condone her deception at all, her motivations are well within character.

Dev is in love with Sona, and can't imagine thinking about money if she's gone, but the rest of the family depends on this same money. Ishwari knows that she is the one who will have to pick up the pieces in that eventuality, and she is trying to prepare herself for it. She's so scared of the worst case scenario, that she isn't accounting for how adversely this will affect the relationships between her, Dev and Sona when the worst case doesn't come to pass.

Please keep posting more to maintain the sanity of us all 😆 Thanks again for this post..much appreciated 🤗

I will do my best to post as much as possible; love discussing with you all!

Loved your analysis. And I agree with you that Sona needs to be herself in the Dixit family instead of trying to fit in the the family by being an ideal bahu.

We want Dr.Sonakshi Bose back !!!!

I hope the CV's wont continue to show her wearing saree everyday. Sona looks awesome in all the fancy chudidars .. Also in real life how many working women wear saree everyday ?

I hope Bengali Ma (Asha) will be able to guide Sona as to how she can handle the Dixits :)

For the sake of argument where was Dadi Bua for Neha's marriage?

Why take Dev signature's like that ? when he has refused it with hurt eyes?

In the ME - the marriage is 10-15 mins - all the cultural blabber was 45mins - Why ??

I completely agree with what you said about why Dadi Bua is there, but Ishwari's voice - Dadi Bua was too loud, in the entire marriage - it was not subtle, mature, it was downright rude - which is the main problem. What ever Ishwari was not being able to voice out, Dadi Bua did I understand that but not the route taken for the same.

By the way yours is the only post which is finally making some sense to me, so Im going to fire all my questions about the show dont mind.

Wow.. What a title!!! Kudos to you for this amazing analysis and write up:)))

I wish to see this journey blossom this way!

There was one line Dadi bua said as being introduced to Sonakshi.. Le Ladki Sab Ko jodne wali hai'

Sam , you never cease to amaze me with your unique perspective , and this was brilliant .

"When Love Takes You Places You Never Expected to Go" ...

As much as I am excited to see this journey , I am also dreaded of where it will take Sona in this ... As you mentioned I hope when she tries to fit into the role of "Mrs.Dixit" she would not lose Sonakshi Bose in the process ... But if yesterdays confrontation is any indication , I believe Cvs are trying to stick to her characterization.

Ishwari's descision to get Dev married to Sona - for me its similar to Dev's descision of break-up. Rushed , not thought through, but inevitable due the demand of situation , also brought a temporary solution. Dev thought he could go through with it , for the sake of happiness of his mother ,tried really hard , until he faced the hard faced reality . Ishwari is also in that stage right now , she is really trying , but lets wait and watch how long it would take for her facade to break and face her insecurities . CVs may have added dadi bua to introduce this conflict and voice her thoughts , but I am disappointed that they could not come up with any inventive ways than using the typical conservative old lady who is critical about everything the new generation does .. Even though I understand the writers intention of using her , for me her presence doesn't go with the flavor of the show ! When I was loosing my hopes for the show , your post cheer me up , thank you so much for this post !!!

Dadi-Bua's introduction was brought out of the blue, I do agree, which is why she wasn't there for Neha's marriage. My theory is that the marriage was demanded by the channel on the 30th when the CVs had a few weeks of story left, sorting out the infertility and pre-nup drama. They brought in DB to fill in some of the blanks, as they had to put the marriage together on short notice. If you observe, usually segments come a week in advance from the episodes in which the scenes feature, but last week it was all very immediate. Jhat shooting phat episode! 😆 But what was important to me was that CVs were aware of how they were tweaking the story, and kept the characters consistent. I also insist that DB helped humanise Ishwari a little bit... maybe the writers saw that viewers were unable to see her as anything but a villain and took this step?

I copied my ideas about the prenup from a previous post into my reply to deepsel on this thread. In short, I think it had to do with Ishwari's paranoia about money, given her past. She sees herself as taking responsibility to make sure that her family is NEVER in the position they once were again.

Fire away! I live for this kind of discussion! 😃

You make so much sense. I read the deepsel reply.

You're saying after this week things might be back to normal ? Ishwari is going to be a villain whether Dadi Bua is there or not, that pehle rasoi promo is so clear that Ishwari is the villain to some one who is watching the promo or the show for the first time.

Story tweaking tho hua hain, from subtle to thoda loud hua hain, I thought I am imagining the change.

I will get back to you with more questions 😆 as the story progresses.

Hey Sam,,, been under the weather from yesterday, so I'm writing in late though I rushed to read your once-again spot on analysis. Yes, it's kinda like the aftermath of a bad storm or a tornado that was DevAkshi's wedding. It was high on drama but totally loved Dev and Sona who managed to be cocooned in their own world. After the wedding was where all the players and their emotions was openly seen by all and sundry. Everyone (at least the majority) were so disappointed that the fairytale didn't continue and it came to a jarring stop. Dev-Sona-Ishwari's dynamics and the undercurrents of all sorts of varying emotions were brought to the fore. Sona, being overly smart , has already got a feeling of the 'mess'(I use this term loosely) she's got herself into - she's intuitive enough to know that Iswari has not really accepted her from the heart. Dev is a lost 'child' 😆 caught between two strong women. I'm sure he'll get badly bruised before he earns his mettle as Sona's 'strongman' and his mother's grown-up son not 'bacchaa' (as his mom thinks he is). Everyone is also creating a ruckus saying KRPKAB is going the typical saas - Bahu route. I , for one don't think so inspite of the melodrama we are getting for the past few episodes - I really truly hope I'm not proved wrong.. going out on a limb saying this, but KRPKAB manages to surprise us time and again so I have high hopes 😃. I'm up for the story to unfold further and looking at the new promo , I too sincerely hope Sona does away with wanting to fit in and making the mad dixits fit into a proper and loving home with herself as the anchor, by bringing her true self to the fore. It's going to be an uphill task and I'm sure she'll meet resistance from her darling husband - but we all know he is putty in her hands 😆 and will eventually come around and help her in the process - at least that's my fervent hope.
P.S need I say that your positive post made my day after all the majorly negative ones I read? Please write more often - we need positive people - we already have to deal with the severely retarded and dysfunctional Dixits you know 😆
