First of all this is not a hate topic. I have been watching the show for 7 years. Its only recently that it has taken turns for the worst. I watched Ektas KWK interview, and she says that even in Hollywood there are huge glitches in story. I havn't watched a single hollywood serial with bloopers such as this one. I can't understand, that she being such a good buisnesswoman, she can produce such a serial, which makes a mockery of the viewers. Well, she is smart in one respect- we still watch it, even though if its for the blooper value.

She said in the interview that I make serails about problems faced in middle class. I dont think the Indian middle class marries so many times, and divorces so many times. I dont think the middle class treats their wives the way its potrayed in the serial, extra marital affairs and such. I have so many questions in my head after this KSBKBT, if i dont write them here, I'll go mad. I have reached a point that I really want to discuss this with someone:

1) First of all, when someone becomes mentally ill in a family, u fix up a doc appointment, not send that person to a mental asylum. Comsidering that SN is an educated family, you dont shout "you are mad" at a mad person. you are gentle and understanding, especially when the person concerned is your mother or wife.

2) A mental asylum is not a jail. Visitors are allowed, its like a normal hospital and not a dingy stinking place like shown. Tying chains on patients is against the law. What are they trying to potray? These people live in mumbai, not a remote village. They have the money to afford the best treatment. How can you even send you family to such a place. (If it exists)

3) What happened to Bhoomi's pregnancy?

4) Ba's age: Ekta was trying to say in KWK that Ba is 90. and Mihir is 20 years younger. WTH, did Ba get pregnant when she was 10? Thank god, Karan said Ba is not 90, she is 200.

5) How can a person not recognize a person in a sehra. Where were all the irritating sisters like archita, whose sole duty is to keep Laksh and KT together. Why didnt they talk to Laksh during the whole wedding?

6) Why is noone talking of divorce of KT, considering that everyone has at least married more than once? Dont they want to carry forward the family tradition?

7) Where did nandini go after supporting KT initially? She should help KT get the divorce.

8) KT is supposed to be not happy with the wedding. Why wear mangalsutra and matching jewellery and nice sarees? Well, ok this is a minor point in Ektaland.

9) Where is that cliff where all the events take place? How does the whole family reach there in minutes of something happening? Why do they say dialogues standing at the edge of the cliff.

10) Why doesnt tulsi show the MMS clip that Eklavya sent to everyone?

11) How can Eklavya turn evil so suddenly, that shows that everything is in your genes, upbringing has no value. Nice thing to show to the middleclass.

12) How can Abhir be of the same age group as Bhoomi and Archita, he is supposed to be of Karan/ Sahil's generation. And moreover how can he marry Archita, his own niece. This is the height of bloopers.

I have so many questions, but as new bloopers are shown, I keep forgetting the old ones. If anyone knows EKta, please tell her to visit this forum, and answer our questions. Do add more questions to this thread, but dont use abusive language, ill keep updating it.

mz seductive: very nice post

Nandini supposedly has no relationship with Aseem. Then what was she doing in Aseem's bedroom on Jan 11th-12th?

woah!!! im da 1st one 2 rply.
1st of all..i agree..ekta shudnt compare her serial 2 hollywwod serial...coz ive been watching corrie, eastenders. hollyoaks etc and none f dis happens in dem.
2ndly...summing up all ur qusetions...dis is ekta's serial..we r all pretty much used 2 her excessive scenes...and yes sumtyms we can c da best solution out of da situation but ekta is obviously planning sumthing else or just cnt remember.

im not bashing ekta but i hav 2 say..she does ger a lil hyper and she just needs 2 shw a lil bit more reality in her serial-if der r based on real-life happenings.^

soap opera's here in america can be stretched and be bizaare at times but they dont have so many bloopers and unbelieveable situations and they can handle time leaps in a smoother fashion (i guess the writers here are more creative in some respect). Ekta madam says her serials are for the middle class and masses shouldnt she try to send a social message thru hers shows of how to treat ur family, friends esp. ur wife with more respect/dignity (i understand its drama and u have to show conflict and trouble but pls there is a limit). Common even india's middle class isnt so regressive or uneducated in their thinking and behavior 😡 .

Compared to the time I waste watching the show, this was nothing. At least it gave me some peace to vent out somewhere.

Oh how i miss serials like Saans, Kora kagaz, buniyaad, astitva.

BTW, ekta is involved in story sessions. She hires the story writers. Why blame them. She has the upperhand in everything that goes on.

I concur!! There is not a single soap in Hollywood that has as much bloopers as any of Ekta's soaps. Hell, even on indian tv in the old shows - Daastan, Sea Hawks, Saher, Saans, Kora Kagaz, Astitva, Siddhanth and the likes - there weren't as much bloopers.

She said in the interview that I make serails about problems faced in middle class. I dont think the Indian middle class marries so many times, and divorces so many times. I dont think the middle class treats their wives the way its potrayed in the serial, extra marital affairs and such. I have so many questions in my head after this KSBKBT, if i dont write them here, I'll go mad.

If I may add, a large portion middle-class *wifes* work. I think its a bit of an irony that most of her serials are "female-oriented" yet not a single women works. Janki's work is not "work" niether is Prerna's because they are loitering around the house more than half of the time. Middle-class families do not have deals that range in millions or crores like any and every soap of hers. Most middle-class families do not live in houses as lavish as Shantiniketan, Aggarwal house etc.

I have reached a point that I really want to discuss this with someone:

1) First of all, when someone becomes mentally ill in a family, u fix up a doc appointment, not send that person to a mental asylum. Comsidering that SN is an educated family, you dont shout "you are mad" at a mad person. you are gentle and understanding, especially when the person concerned is your mother or wife.

So true..!! I wonder how the staff of the mental asylum took her in. Don't they need t examine her first? to see if she's really mentally instable? Geez. So if I shout, YOU'RE MAD! Then call the mental asylum, they are going to take the person?😕

2) A mental asylum is not a jail. Visitors are allowed, its like a normal hospital and not a dingy stinking place like shown. Tying chains on patients is against the law. What are they trying to potray? These people live in mumbai, not a remote village. They have the money to afford the best treatment. How can you even send you family to such a place. (If it exists)

If I knew what they were trying to portray, I'd definitely share. It's so dumb to see the mental asylum people tying Tulsi with chains.

3) What happened to Bhoomi's pregnancy?

She was pregnant?😕

4) Ba's age: Ekta was trying to say in KWK that Ba is 90. and Mihir is 20 years younger. WTH, did Ba get pregnant when she was 10? Thank god, Karan said Ba is not 90, she is 200.

I was quite shocked myself. Wasn't Baa supposed to be around 104-105? Funny Ekta doesn't remember her

5) How can a person not recognize a person in a sehra. Where were all the irritating sisters like archita, whose sole duty is to keep Laksh and KT together. Why didnt they talk to Laksh during the whole wedding?

They can't differentiate one family member from another. Even dogs are better!

6) Why is noone talking of divorce of KT, considering that everyone has at least married more than once? Dont they want to carry forward the family tradition?

😆😆 LMAO. They're all uneducated fools. Wonder how they make so much money considering how stupid and dumb they are.

7) Where did nandini go after supporting KT initially?

To Aseem's house?😕

8) KT is supposed to be not happy with the wedding. Why wear mangalsutra and matching jewellery and nice sarees? Well, ok this is a minor point in Ektaland.

Dontcha know? Whenever a women is about to go out and have affairs with other men, she starts wearing nice gorgeous sarees. Examples from the past: Bhumi, Nandini.

9) Where is that cliff where all the events take place? How does the whole family reach there in minutes of something happening? Why do they say dialogues standing at the edge of the cliff.

Don't know...? Wasn't it supposedly WAYYY out of Mumbai?

10) Why doesnt tulsi show the MMS clip that Eklavya sent to everyone?

Her cellphone broke..?

11) How can Eklavya turn evil so suddenly, that shows that everything is in your genes, upbringing has no value. Nice thing to show to the middleclass.

Like I said before - this isn't "middle-class" this is "high-class". You don't talk in crores if you're middle class.

12) How can Abhir be of the same age group as Bhoomi and Archita, he is supposed to be of Karan/ Sahil's generation. And moreover how can he marry Archita, his own niece. This is the height of bloopers.

This one, I think I can answer. See how Sawri/Bawri are actually from Karan/Gautam generation yet they're in the same age group as Bhumi/Archita? I think that's the case with Abhir, as well. He isn't actually as old as Karan-Sahil but he shares the same relation as Karan/Gautam with Archita. Agreed about the part about him marrying his niece. Not just height of bloopers, height of incest! Are they trying to pull off a Lolita? Can't decide which incest was/is grosser: Lolita or Archita.

Nandini supposedly has no relationship with Aseem. Then what was she doing in Aseem's bedroom on Jan 11th-12th?
