They brought Rishabh/Manit back with specific story in mind but all that vanished the moment they took the leap and he was completely sidelined. I hope he is looking at other projects as I sincerely doubt he will get his due here. I got back to watching KDB just for him, so if he is out, it is bye from me to the show.
There is a pattern I have noticed with Rishabh’s character, they bring him back, he has some real good scenes raising hopes for a good track for a week or 2 and then he is just sent away or gets sidelined again. Very annoying for me as a fan of the actor/character.
1. Preeran are leads who have always relied on a third character to move their story - Rishabh/Prithvi/Sherlyn/Mahira and now Sona. So their love story/marriage has never been about them but a third person.
Friendship to expose Sherlyn. It broke due to Rishabh’s marriage. 1st marriage due to Mahesh Luthra. 2nd marriage due to Sherlyn/Mahira. Even the baby happened cos of family/ Sherlyn losing her baby as Preeta couldn’t see the family in such sad state. Now they will break up due to Sona. They don’t have a standing on their own.
I will compare it with the most recent Prembandhan show. Harsh Janaki in the 3 phases of the show, their relationship/story was about them and no one else.
2. They will not turn Rishabh negative as he is a beloved character and people like and miss him in the show. He had moved on from Preeta long back even before her marriage took place. There is absolutely no need for him to turn negative and that too for Preeran.
3. Agree, completely
4. Again agree, mostly. Even if Sherlyn turns positive, it will be as a friend to Rishabh and not his wife or they will end her track. I am rooting for the first option.
I like Prithika too. Prithvi is adorably confused around Krithika.
Lastly NOT a Rishta shipper at all. I try to find tracks where Rishabh can fit in. 😄
Preeta has been a lousy friend to Rishabh, he is better off without her. I see more potential in Rishabh-Shrishti or Rishabh/Sona. For instance, ( not going to happen, I know)
Sona’s dad is impressed with the Luthras as a family, best fit for his daughter. Then he finds the truth about how Karan and Preeta got married and goes nope, this will not do.
Then he meets Rishabh and is really impressed. Rishabh meets Sona and thinks of her as Mahira 2.0.
Sona is surprised that the shy brother of Karan whom she had a bit of crush on is so cold towards her. They can take it from there.
See I was not kidding about trying to find Rishabh tracks😂
Preeta needs to have a complete overhaul with a hard look on her life’s choices and move on completely from Karan. Only then Rishta story will be interesting.
In ITV, these things never happen. So if not Sona, she will be soon dealing with a Mona in Karan’s life. As somehow Karan always needs someone other than Preeta who wants him to justify his TKL tag. Meh..
Will have a look at the show you mentioned as soon as I get a clarity on Rishabh’s future in the show.
