This show started as a show based on Passionate Love Story with Film Faternity as a backdrop...and the name of the show was Kathputli which changed just few days before the show hit on air to Madhubala Ek Ishq Ek Junoon...it doesnt mean the theme of the show changed...the show was about how a simple girl called Madhu who had no high dreams for herself and wanted a simple life...she always wanted to stay away from film indutry but she falls in love with Superstar RK and ends up becoming a heroine as per his wishes and against her own wishes...thats how the name KATHPUTLI came and the show looked in the starting...RK's Love was described by himself as "AAG KA DARIYA"...remember RK making Madhu and Trishna's clay models and saying - CHALO BHAGWAAN-BHAGWAAN KHELE!
But somehow the story of a simple girl did not go well with audience esp.the Mukund track...the TRPs went down...
So then the makers changed the track a bit...they did their Tried and Tested Formula which works in thier every show that is Force marriage and Love-Hate track 😆...now the TRPs were high so they dont wanna change the track...
I do not think the theme of the show has changed as of yet...am not talking about any future track but whats shown till now. The promos and artciles before the start of the show stated what you have described..a simple girl forced into stardom and falling in love with a superstar. To show this you need to have a solid background and story...which they are giving. The mukund track or the forced marriage track is no change of plan...may be they rushed a bit into the marriage by skipping some of OTT drama of Mukund and party...but the creatvies already were giving hints to this...rem RK saying he about the bangles thing and the 40 yrs...these are small hints that it was always meant to be that way.
Kathputli was a working title and all shows have a working title and before going on air they get a final title which may or may not be the same...and about 'Aag ka dariya' dialogue, well thats what their love story is...
RK is the aag ka dariya...doob ke jana hai symbolises the suffering and heartbreaks and kinare par Rishabh is waiting for Madhu.
Then they thought what does audience like in these actors?...and they started making them do what they were famous for...😆
I cud feel Abhay in RK...he started saying dialogs like Abhay and i am sure all PKYEK fans will agree that RK acts like Abhay now - being an angel, protecting her but hiding it, taking all blames, bajaoing everyone from A to Z - all qualities of Abhay, isnt it?...even some Scenes and Songs (Raat Akeli) were inspired directly...now this Dream Love confession of Madhu - again same like happened with Pia...also Madhu is so much like Pia at times - stalking, questioning, not able to understand him - all qualities of Pia, isnt it?...and RK like Abhay wont confess that he loves her until she keeps a knief on his neck and tell him - Say that u Love me (not literally but u know what i mean 😆)
Well Abhay and Rishabh are a bit similar but like all heroes of telly world. Initially even I felt that they are way similar...in somethings yes they are...but there's a major difference between them. Abhay ALWAYS kept everyone else above him...be it even ppl who hated him. Abhay I guess had no such emotion called hate.😆 Its not the same with Rishabh...he hates few people in his life...loves and cares for people who are good and love him ...gets even with people who try to harm him and a few other differences as well. and Piya and Madhubala are not at all same. Tanzie explained it well.
Also Geet is famous for doing emotional scenes and though i have never watched that show but heard that she is really good in emotional and crying scenes...and Drashti said it herself in interview that she is phD in crying 😆...so i guess thats why she gets lots of senti wale scenes here too
Geet and Madhubala are way different...Madhubala is more calm and composed...I guess more matured too.
Well the question is - does the Film faternity track still hold true in this show? the Forced Stardom and Kathputli track? Does the show look the same how it started?...well i dont think so...when Saurabh Tiwari (the Producer of the show) was questioned recently abt the theme of this show, his new definition was "Its a Love Story with Family drama as backdrop"
LOL the definition changed, aahaan?! 😆
About the Saurabh Tiwari quote...he did not change it...before the start of the show he had said in an interview..MEIEJ will be a RJ type of love story with a HAHK background...so where did the definition change?🤔
About stardom track...I feel it was supposed to be after Madhu falling in love with Rishabh ( what I understood from promos) so that will be in future...and am not predicting anything...will wait for the story to progress.
PS: this is my POV...if u cant take it then no need to come and fight here...rest r welcome to give their opinion in a peaceful way and take it lightly in a fun way
