I cannot disagree with any of the facts mentioned by anyone of you. This show has lost his charm somewhere. And it's not just from mission behrupiya but long before. I felt it after Sagai track itself. But the mission was the last stroke the audience's patience.
If I go and compare the initial 100-150 episodes with the recent ones, the difference is evident.
I remember few tracks from initial days like Haseena's doppleganger, Qayamat, Mission Jeet, Misri Pandey and many such cases where we used to have suspense and excitement but now that's the missing.
I liked ASI Mira track because it was a break from repetitive Haseena vs Karishma. Of course it was still there but the track mostly focused on Mira's equation with duo.
But mission behrupiya was a disaster. It started with such a hype but end was completely illogical and rushed. Karishma was completely lost, Cheetah became obsessive, Pushpa Ji seemed to be indifferent. And Haseena's character took 360 degree turn. If that was not less, they had to bring memory loss track and make Haseena do all weird things and make MPT look as completely confused souls. Billu has became completely insensitive and I also hate everyone slapping him for no reason. And not to mention Anubhav turning to a traitor overnight. It had no proper backstory. Then comes Haseena's confrontation with MPT. It was a messed writing. Neither did Haseena apologize nor did MPT ask for any. No proper confrontation and no proper reunion! No emotional breakdown, pain or heartbreak has ever been addressed. But who to blame? I don't remember writers have ever shown proper apology for any track even once. But here it's not about everytime. I had few expectations from Haseena and it hurts to say that this time she has left me disappointed. I was never disappointed when apology tracks were not proper in past. And I don't know why this time then?
And now they are again going back to Haseena vs Karishma. I love Haseena and I think everyone on this forum knows this. But I'm not ready for this Karishma who would sing Maddam Sir 24*7. I love the Kareena from old days. Even though they were not on good terms, they had a spark. Now-a-days this overdose of sweetness is making me run away from duo sometimes.
But even after all this I don't want this show to end for next 2 years. I don't want it to run more than that and become another yrkkh because any such ling running show turns out to be a disaster.
But this is the only ITV show that I watch that too after a long time. Before this I used to watch a show called Sadda Haq when I was in my school and now I'm a working woman. Long time! I never watched Sadda Haq regularly as well because I just liked a supporting character there and his appearance used to be only sometimes a week. Rest all the characters would just ruin my mood. I started watching Ziddi Dil but I ran from it just after 30 episodes because of the overdose of romance.
If this show goes off-air I'll ve nothing to watch. And according to me this show is still better than all ITV shows. I should just not start about Star Plus shows. Few of them just make me feel disgusted with the storyline. But we also know shoes of Sony Sab, except Tarrak Mehta doesn't runs for long. So this might go off-air maximum within two years.
