I love the creative team of MB.

Its gonna be a year since the show launched and yet the team has managed to keep its audience guessing as to how the story will unfold. No mean feat that.

Further, in this day and age, when every channel and its PH steers shows solely based on trps and audience demands, here is a team that is truly interested in telling a story they way they have perceived-unfazed by praises and undeterred by bashing. They do not have knee jerk reactions to the audiences initial dislike of their new tracks -be it RK marrying madhu forcibly, betraying her at the altar, the sultan track, or their constant clamour for 24X7 RK-madhu romance which if served as desired, would result in boring fare. They do as Saurabh T puts it, only promise Entertainment, Entertainment and Entertainment. And they have really lived up to their promise...just when we think the story is going off track, they deliver a twist and turn so delicious, we are left with loony smiles on our faces and feelings of excitement for whats gonna come next.

Also, these guys sure know how to close loops. Love the way they circle back to the old-today being a case in point being today, when Madhu explains her point of view for helping sultan saying thats what she learnt from her chawl family when they helped her pregnant mom flee her evil hubby. Loved the way the gulal too was used to link the present with the past. Nice touch.

The team has time and again stood firm on its convictions. When RK turned grey, they had the world bashing them! but they didnt tread the ghissa pitta route of sacrifice or blackmail etc but held on to the twist. Then again, the current sultan track and madhus involvement with him and his kid has been incessantly criticised. Today however, her emotional explanation of who she was and why she is acting this way was beautifully done and shut all their detractors. Whenever we feel they are being illogical and irrational, they manage to take the story forward in an unexplored direction that leaves you thinking "aha, i never thought of that. Yes, thats possible"

So kudos to you, Team madhubala...may you continue twisting and turning in new directions , fetching high trps and enlarging your fan base!

I felt the same.

If CVs change tracks all the time then it means they do not have a strong storyline to abide by.
As a viewer though I can't help noticing some flaws.

this is only thing I liked about MB cvs they are not changing story according to fans otherwise m fan demand something next day something in thisway how writer will write the story. they have proper plan that is having , they are changing little bit but nt more hope they will keep pit like this, but TRP matter so may be they will change, as IPL started so I felt TRP will go down due to that, track will be whatever MB is peak time for IPL so anyway it is going to down so they should not change track due to TRP I feel

I agree to a this that the cvs are unpredictable .
And I have just loved the show till now for it was a refreshing change from routine stuff and no doubt entertaining.
I liked sultans character and aryans character also .
But sorry the track of madhu taking out the bullet and saving both of them and bringing them home was boring and not beleivable . Yes if he was not a gangster and she helped even a common man from goons was agreeable.
There was no entertainment or logic to it.
Yes aryan is cute and sultan handsome but...
As far as rishbala go --- the cvs only made them so lovable and close to our heart and now want us to accept sulbala also --- very difficult.

It's like u make us fall in love for months and want us to fall out in a week

I agree!

Sometimes I really feel like I am watching some suspenseful triller instead of a a love story. Yah Madhubala is supposed to be this dark and passionate love story but nearly every episode I keep guessing what is going to happen next.

Usually with Indian soaps they get a bit predictable and that's why I don't watch many. Madhubala is the first Indian show where I can keep guessing and guessing and the show will still surprise me!!

I love Madhubala!

👏Indepgal,u spoke whats on my mind,i cannot imagine any other PH taking the risk of a gangster track and i applaud ST and cv's for that.
I wanna sit back and enjoy their creativity,and i know nothing can be perfect always and not everyone will love everything,but I love the continuous churning of tracks where they do not allow the dust to settle and just when u are arguing the pros and cons of one track they deviate ure mind with a newer conflict.
Hats off to the CV's.There will never be calm in the MB land only the still b4 the calm.👏👏👏
Love the post.
