Why did you START watching LTL?

Hey everyone, with the recent news about Mishal leaving it made me think why did I start watching LTL........what was it about this show that attracted me to it. For instance, if Dutta hadn't entered the show would I have continued watching it.....would it have mattered to me who Dutta was, what actor played him......all of these questiosn and I've had to think long and hard for the answers.....the TRUE ANSWERS....

Very well said👏👏👏.......

I remember watching the promos for LTL, it had an old hindi literature kind of feel to it, nd I was pretty disappointed to know that I won't be able to watch the show because I will be going back to my hostel... I really hoped the show would do well because it had a very rare and unique concept to it...So, the first episodes of the show that I did watch were the immediately after 1st wedding ones, and some bits of the jungle track... Later on I happened to come across an episode with Anna, Subs etc online nd was pretty impressed to see that they were potrayed very authentically for most part nd not in a caricature sort of way, which is what usually happens when people from southern part of India are potrayed in popular media...What got me hooked weirdly was Baji-Roops drunk scene because I wanted to see how that story was going to progress. After that I went online nd watched all the episodes before that... The best bits as many have said before also, were the basti ones. Not that the rest were bad, but the basti ones were epic, unique and very real.....Loved the delicate love story of the two leads to bits nd also the other so well written nd executed characters, whom I will never be able to forget like Baji, Kala, Kishore, Anna, Subs, Morey, Sethji, Babi, Ganpat, Jagtap... Nd even Roops, Leela, Madhu, Suds, AS, DP, Bappa, Chaskar etc were also bearable....

The best thing about LTL is that each nd every chara, even minor ones, have always been very well written and the CVs always stayed true to the story line except for few minor bloopers.....Every other show is like a patch up of twists and turns jst to raise the trps for the moment, compromising with the concept, the character description etc, but LTL always stayed true to it and still made it big... Even now the story has that flow, it has always be true to what it was in the beginning nd I applaud every single member of LTL's team for that... The show has been very well cast nd they were lucky also for getting it right, Mishal is Dutta nd no one else can or will ever be...The four main people in the story , Nakusha, Dutta, Kala nd Baji had a great dynamic going on between them nd if MR is leaving, I think I will be missing Duji more than Tasha😔.... Well, I too much of my pointless blabbering ha, nyways LTL CVs are nd have always been great, I have full faith in them nd hope that they come up with something good with the whole situation. But not liking the undercover cop story if it is to introduce a new love interest or something, instead if the cope comes in as some sort of a mentor to Naku, you know like some one a bit older, mature, I might be fine with it, Naku's LS starts nd ends with Dutta nd that should jst be the way it would be.........No more new love stories, nope...

Nd I don't think Mahi taking a break during her wedding will create much problems, she has always been a great professional, so they might create a bank of episodes beforehand itself.....

Viewers who appreciate LTL will surely continue watching but there will surely be a huge drop drop in ratings after MR exits😔.....

hmmm let me go bk and remember wat attracted me😆ermm well i was bored one day was sat in my sisterinlaws room she had da telly on wen suddenly i saw nakusha running u knw dat boat scene wen they try escaping frm morey i was like is aadmi ney i didnt knw dat she was actually a beutiful girl but wen i came across her i was shocked but den my sil tld me dat she has seen a few epis and dis girls mother babi hides her true face etc😕was about 2 turn away wen da precap came on mr entry😉😆firstly firstly a confession i saw him didnt knw who he was first time i ad seen da guy but wat made me stiop and think 2 watch a few epis afta dat is i realised ladki sundar hain banda gunda hain oh well u get wat i mean😆kya combo hain was like dem prince's in da story books saving da damzels in distress vbut in dis case nt knwing her true face so i wanted 2 see at da point wat dutta ak mr wud do wud he help dem and all da while i watched 2 see wen her true face wud get revealed

9:30pm is a prime slot. I was on vacation in india last year in December and 9:30pm is more prime to me because my parents go to sleep by then and I had the whole house and TV to myself...Open the TV at 9:30pm, browse all the channels...Saas is plotting against Bahu...change channel....Devrani trying to kill Jethaani.....skip to next channel - a souten forced on a woman and she surviving midst of plots by Souten....skip channel - FIL sitting like bheegi billi in front of MIL who is ranting about her lost status since the Bahu's entry....blah blah blah...and my remote kept on beign active for a long time and then I see a ugly gal running behind a kid...The kid's mom had brought him to the scary looking gal because the kid wasnt drinking milk...Betaa, doodh peele nahi toh Naku aa jaayegi....The kid gets scared and decides that milk was a better option than the scary face....and he gulps...

In april 2010 ,hamare yahan colors channel onn hua or me us channel ko kabhi lagati hi nahi thi.meri czn mere ghar rehne ayee for a week.she watches LtL very fondly🤓.At that time i saw nakusha and i started laughing what kind of heroin is she😆.i was also laughing on name of datta bhao😆 and i remebered what i said after watching datta"kya yaar ye hero hai itna sara hua"😔then i have to watch that serial wid her daily,i dont know when i started to like mishal🥺.or usk janey k baad me serial dekhne lagi.itne pagal paney se k net pe usko serach kiya k uska real name kya kaun hai😍 etc........................woh din hai or ajj ka din ek epi khatam hone k baad paglon ki tarah next epi ka wit kartin hun😍.is serial k me apna sara kaam jaldi khatam karleti hun,mon to fri me kahiin nahi jati ,agar kahiin majbooran jana parey to chahe kitne baje bhi wapis aon ltl dekhe bina nahi soti.sat sun youtube pe puraney epi dekhti hun ltl k.

I started watching LTL because of one particular video in youtube - The scene where Nakku confesses to Dutta that she did love him and that too with the gun pointed to her head...But what amazed me in that scene was Dutta's expression after she says that! I was like Wow! I have to see this show..The chemistry between Dutta-Nakku rocked.

It was March 16.2010. I'd had a horrible day at work with my principal & had come home in a cranky mood. Mom was all decked in her kanjeevaram & was pressing another heavy one into my hands asking me to quickly drape it & accompany the family to some reception.I flatly refused to go anywhere & it all ended up in big tiff after which I was left alone at home to sulk.After crying for a bit I switched on the TV which was rested on Colors coz the family was watching BV earlier.I saw this beautiful girl singing my all time favourite "jaane kya baat hai" and I stopped to watch. Slowly the camera moved from the girl to a tall, lanky,grim man who had such tortured expression on his face.He just stood there forlornly by himself but his eyes spoke volumes.I wanted to touch & ask him what;s wrong such was the intensity of his pain. For the rest of the serial I went into a trancelike fugue state.Bas woh ek din & aur aaj ka din.I never recovered from that trance.I rushed to the Internet to find out more abt him.I watched the missed serials haphazardly with out any sequence but it didn't matter to me.I just wanted him on the screen. I was scared to blink even when he came on.I still haven't watched Morey_Nakku sequence.One reason only.No Dutta in those scenes.And the next day heartbeats were skewed from 8 pm itself.Till date the same condition continues.No matter how ridiculous the story line, how irritating the characters bas one jhalak of him & I think I've died & gone to heaven. Curiously later when I watched the actor in interviews I simply wasn't interested. It was only when that brooding,grim angel in dark clothes came on screen my knees turned to jellies.

my reason was vinay initially---i heard he was gna b in this show via TB article...so i was like yay i'll defo watch his shw... bt thn i cudnt remember the name of the shw afterwards n cudnt find the article either..lol... thn randomly 1 day i was skipping thru channels n i came across LTL--the omnibus was on and coincedently it inc vinay's entry scene n thts hw i gt stuck 2 the shw...

i hadnt heard abt mishal raheja b4 this shw either... slowly slowly i gt glued 2 LTL becos of vinay, mishal and its unique concept....

I started to watch because of the storyline....because it didn't seem to offer the saas-bahu drama most other shows do.....and because of a few other little things LTL showed me like Dutta-Baaji friendship, for example.

I didn't start watching for MR, but him leaving the show will be my reason for not watching it anymore. I don't like leads being replaced, especially when the actor has become the character as well as MR has become Dutta Bhao for me.

If some other actor had played this role, well, I can't say anything about that as it never happened! It's true the CVs have put the show and cast together, but since then LTL has become the work of a team.....and every little change in this team will affect the show. Dutta being replaced or erased from the show will affect me big time. I hope the CVs can keep their show alive even if MR leaves....I just don't think I'll watching.
